Canadian business expansion
for 1885 was highly satisfactory
and 1887 has opened with a main
tenance of this improvement, &C
cording to the Bank of Montreals S
current business summary.
All the basic natural industries
are either restored to health or in
process of so being, and the en-
largement Of purchasing power
which results from this improve.
ment contributes to the benefit of
all manufacturing and merchan-
dising enterprises. Retail trade,
after the best Christmas in years,
is keeping up at a good level, the
summary states.
The mining industry's expansion
for 1885 continued uninterrup:-
edly, its output value for the year
totaling $3.50, 100000 as compared
with $312,000,000 in 1885 and
$310,8 900 in 1929. In the manu-
featuring field, while a number of
industries are holding up their
1887 plans pending possible tariff
changes necessitated by the re-
vision of the Anglo-Canadian trade
treaty, the heavy industries are
more than holding their own. The
newsprint industry, considerably
improved, has practically emerged
from it's difficulties.

MARKET MIXED
AS STEELS
IMPROVE
By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Jan. % G.N.Sl.
The stock market continued ir-
regular and comparatively quiet
in today's abbreviated session.
Strength in oils, some utilities and
a recovery in the steel shares were
features.
U. S., Steel converted a frac-
tional loss into an equal gain,
while Bethlehem recovered to it's
previous close.
Standard Oil of New Jersey
spurted more than a point to the
best price since 1890, we'll above
10. Phillips Petroleum advanced
as much, while Houston and Texas
Corporation added large frac-
tional gains.
In utilities, Consolidated Edison
responded to gossip of an increase
in dividends with a climb of a
point into new high ground. North
American and Public Service Of
New Jersey also were active and
higher.
General Motors advanced mod
erately, but other motors were gen.
orally sluggish. NaSh-Kelvinator
hit a new top above 81.
Farm implements, rails and
communications were slightly
easier. Rail equipments and rub
berS were mixed.
Westinghouse Electric dropped
over points under profit taking.
General Electric also was lower.
Bonds were mixed and quiet.
Grains recovered early losses.
Cotton eased.

JAPAN CABINET
IN RUMPUS,
RESIGNS
BY JAMES r. YOUNG

TOKYO, Jan. % Q.N.S0.
Japan's cabinet, hammered by
charges Of army.controlled "Fa-
Scism," resigned today, showing di-
rectly before the island empires
millions the question of rule by
parliament or rule by the army.
Adamant refusal of Gen. Count
Juichi Terauchi. war minister,
either to commit hara kiri, as he
was challenged to do, or to resign,
caused the cabinets action.
Victory went to the parties in
the house of representatives,
where the Minseito party, al
though halffavoring the army,
holds such a slim majority that it
did not dare risk dissolution of
the Diet and the consequent gen.
eral election.
Resignation of the cabinet dur
ing an actual session of the Diet
has no precedent in Japanese po-
litical history. Emperor Hirohito
commanded Premier Koki Hirota
to remain in office until a sue
ceSSor can be chosen.

WESTERN INDEX
BEST SINCE 81

During 1885 business activity
in the seven Far Western States,
as reflected by the Bank of Amer
lea Index, reached the highest
level since 1881.
The banks 1886 index level
was approximately IL per cent
above 1885, 19 per cent over 1894,
81 per cent over 1888 and 81 per
cent above 1892. The 1886 aver
age was 80 per cent higher than
the depression low, reached in
March, 1888.
The increase in business ex-
tended over the entire Western
area and was shared by almost
all major industries, according to
the banks analysis and research
department.

OIL SHARES UP
0NIRREGULAR
CURB LIST

NEW YORK, Jan. % G.N.SO.
While continuing irregularly lower
in later dealings today, the curb
market was displaying a firmer
tendency, particularly in the oils,
which worked generally higher
under fairly active buying. The
volume for the list as whole i'm
proved somewhat.
In the petroleums Gulf erased
an early loss to net a point on the
session and Humble gained about
as much. Creole was up almost a
point and Pantepec improved on
fair buying. Mining shares were
very quiet and showing little price
change.
The Utilities were displaying no
definite trend. While Electric
Bond & Share came back after
initial easineSs to register a slight
advance, Eastern Gas common
dipped a half point to 9 and the
preferred sold off about a point.
American Superpower preferred
lost more than a point.
A few fair gains we're chalked
up in the miscellaneous shares.
Pittsburgh Plate Glass ran up al
most 2 points and Pittsburgh &
Lake Erie advanced a point. Ford
Motor of Canada A. Godchaux
Sugar B, and Seversky Aircraft
worked fractionally higher.
On the downside Aluminium of
America was outstanding with a
loss of more than 2 points. Rust
less Iron turned down almost a
point and Continental Roll and
Pittsburgh Forgings lost ground.
