STOCKS turn down
in SMALLER SALES
Market Acts Weary Today
After Week of Unusual
Advances.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, January 16-The stock
market today acted weary after week
of unusual advances, with the profes-
sionaI element disposed to accept some
of their paper profits and to walt for
the absolute completion OF those de-
velopments in Washington and In CHI
cago that underlie much Of the change
in speculative sentiment.
Prices slowly reacted more from lack
of interest than from the size OF oHer-
ings, as the market dropped back mto
about the same valume of trading as a
week ago: Losses OF point or more
occurred in United States Steel, Amer
ican Telephone & Telegraph, Allied
Chemical, American Can, Westing-
house, Union Pacific and New York
Central, while Auburn Auto fell three
points.
As Is usual in market OF today's
character, the fluctuations were out OF
proportion In the markets size.
Passage of the Reconstruction Finance
Corporation bill by the House indicated
that 1t might be presented in form for
signature by President Hoover early next
week. On the other hand, the posi-
bilities for delay in reaching an agree
ment on railroad wages are well recog-
nized In Wall Street and have produced
a more cautious feeling among those
who recently were extremely optimistic
over railroad stocks and railroad junior
bonds.
The market opened irregularly lower,
with losses at the start confined to
small fractions, as it reflected the check
given TO the rallying tendency on Fri
day and also the downturn in the Lon
don market. A number of the leaders
showed good resistance to prof1t- t-taking
operations consequent upon the weeks
rise in prices.
The foreign trade statement issued
by the Department Of Commerce for
December and for the calendar year
1881, testified to the collapse In the
international markets. Exports in De-
cember were off 33b per cant from
those in the same month Of 1880, while
imports were down 27 per cent. For
the II months there was reduction Of
SO per cent in outgoing trade and Of 80
per cent in our purchases from other
countries, resulting in a commercial
trade balance for the year of only
S334000,00o against s781 100000 in
1880. Imports of gold last year ex-
ceeded exports by $145,000,000. For the
years 1880 and 1881, imports aggre-
gated over $1,000, 100000, as against
exports Of $5s2, 100000.

COTTON IMPROVES
DURING PAST WEEK
Steady Undertone Maintained,
With Advance Highest
Since November.
BY the Associated Press,

BY Lno ASSOCldJcQ FfesS.
NEW YORK, January 1s.-Cotton ex-
perienced somewhat broader demand
from foreign and domestic trade as
we'll as from commission house sources
in the past week, rejecting frnn ess
of stocks and bonds and a belief Ia
trade circles that finance legislation
In process OF enactment, or about to be
introduced, In Congress would improve
credit conditions. Better demand for
cotton goods early in the week and
continued firnlness of the basis in the
South, where farmers continue to hold
cotton, were mentioned as market
factors.
Advices from Germany to the effect
that she would be unable to make
reparations payments and the resigna-
ton Of the French cabinet accounted
for little hesitancy, but later there
was renewed demand from the conti-
nent and buying from the Far East
was fairly well maintained. On the
advance March contracts sold up from
around $3.50 to S6.74, with the general
market rallying to the highest levels
since November and about go to "a
points above the December lows.
advance. but trade buying at around the
7-cent level for July absorbed offerings
fairly we'll. There were renewed dis
cussions in the trade Of the possibility
OF imitation Of commodity values should
expansion in credit develop, and this
was believed to have had a favorable
effect on sentiment.
Weather conditions in the South were
still considered unfavorable for the
movement and field work, but, accord
ing to the Weather Bureau, the n1ois-
ture from recent rains has penetrated
the soil to considerable extent. Early
crop preparations are said to be later
than for a number of years, but the
market thus far has not given any large
degree Of attention to the new crop
outlook.
The report Of the Census Bureau on
domestic consumption for December of
415,517 bales was slightly below trade
estimates, but was without apparent
market effect. At the close of the week
the market displayed q little hesitancy,
but trade buying continued and the un-
dertone was about steady.

DIXIE BEE MINE

TERRE HAUTE. Ind, July %
The Dixie Bee mine, twelve miles
south of here, near Pimento, was
IDLE today, its workers turned back
by a force of union miners and
sympathizers estimated at nearly
1000.
The day shift, on its way to work
early this morning. was met by a
throng which rumbled to the mine
as day dawned, in more than 300
trucks and automobiles. many of
the men being armed.
Faced with the crowd of omi-
nously silent miners, the workers
turned back to their homes, no yio-
lence being reported.
Only a few guards, engineers and
hremen were on duty at the Dixie
Bee through the day.
Mine operators held a conference
Thursday with Governor Harry G.
Leslie, but their decision as to flu
ture activities was not made pub
lie. Sheriff Dreher reported to the
Governor that he would be unable
TO meet the situation if violence
starts.
In addition to picketing the mines
in this district, strikers are reported
to be picketing the homes of men
employed in the Dixie Bee.
One worker stated today that at
least twenty-five men had been in
the vicinity Of his home, and that
he had been advised not to start
