RAIL ISSUES MARKET FEATURE Only Slight Advances, However, Made by Those Stocks. NEW YORK, Feb. 9.—The stock market made a disappointing response to the action of the House of Representatives In passing the railway remuneration bill, railroad stocks making only small fractional advances where there was any display of strength, while some of those issues were In supply from the opening. The room traders generally worked on the Idea that the display of strength yesterday afternoon was due chiefly to covering of shorts and that element again ■old stocks, causing a reaction from the opening range. Southern Pacific was a strong feature, advancing % of a point to 80%. General Asphalt opened up % of a point at 67% and then reacted to 66%. United States Steel, after an advance of % of a point to 82%, reacted to 82% and Baldwin yielded % of a point to 80%. Mexican Petroleum made a gain of % of a point to 159%, from which It declined to 138. Northern Pacific was the most active of ths railroad group, opening up % of a point at Sst4, and then declining to 84%. anere was no special feature to the trading during the forenoon. General Asphalt ranged between 66% and 68%. Sinclair was actively traded In and rose to above 24. Texas A Pacific rose 1 point to 24%. | The Reading issues were again In sup- j piy, the common stock declining 1 point to 82% and the first preferred, which opened up at 53%, dropped to 52. Southern Pacific, after a show of strength at the opening, yielded from 80% to 79%. The Steel Issues moved within a nar- ! row range, Steel common shading ©9 fractionally to 82%. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Feb. 9 • The first half of yesterday’s session was the dullest that we have experienced in some time. There was an entire absence of public interest and but little activity on the part of the professionals | The trouble with the market recently hap been that none of the important prob- \ lems have been settled. Everything that wag pending Is still pending. During the early afternoon It became apparent that the money situation is improving. There was no longer the urgent demand that has been experienced dutrlnz the past week, offerings of funds were freer and was followed by a recession in the call rate and at about the same time some buying orders appeared In the market having the appearance of short covering. This started a little activity and prices promptly responded with improvement. The recovery, however, does not represent sny definite change In the trend of the market. We have nothing before ns at this time that would be at all likely to create sufficient ) public Interest to give us Increased a.?- j urity with a definite upward trend. This maT come in time when some of the mtt-; ters before us have been cleared up. We anticipate a continuance of Just such markets ss we have recently experienced with trading opportunities from day to day. but a likelihood of irregularity and probably some further reaction, in which event Intending buyers will have an opportunity to accumulate the stocks they want.

GRAIN FUTURES SHOW STRENGTH Demand by Domestic Millers Brings Prices Up. CHICAGO, Feb. 9.—Opening weak, trading in grain futures developed considerable strength and advanced on the Chicago Board of Trade today. The rally was attributed to domestic millers’ demands for more wheat. Corn went up in sympathy with wheat. Provisions lower. March wheat opened at $1.60%, off lc, and gained l%c before the close. May wheat, down %c, opened at $1.52%, gaining %c subsequently. May corn opened down %c at 67%c and gained %e In later trading. July corn opened at 69%c, down %c, and remained unchanged In later trading. May oats opened down %c at 44%c, losing an additional %c later. July oats opened at 44%c, down %c, losing an additional %c later. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Feb. 9 Wheat—lt Is quite evident from the action of the wheat market th/it too much attention has been given cables emanating from foreign government buyers, to the exclusion of the strong domestic situation. The situation Is strong to the extent that elevators and mills have practically no wheat on hand and are unable to buy from the country even though paying material premiums over the prices prevailing in terminal markets. The demand fur flour continues to be reported very poor, but opposed to this Is the increased interest In the cash market shown by millers, not only here but northwest and In the Interior. The action of prices yesterday should, and probably will convince a groat many that we must wat"h more ciosely the situation here at home and to be influenced less by the utterances of foreign buyers. It is not to be expected that price# will continue a straight way advance, but there Is rea* son for believing that the course of ttie market has been changed to a better level. Corn and Oat—The strength in wheat and evidence of a falling off In the re ceipts, brought about a change of front in these markets. It can not be said that there Is any enthusiasm in the way of anticipation of materially higher prices, but there is an increasing Idea that the ; present price discounts the receut arguments for lower prices. Moderate export business ha* been done in corn and there is a little more Interest shown by the domestic distributor, although actual business closed remains very stnnll. Provisions The lack of general Inter est referred to so frequently in provisions Is still apparent, which condition, together with a weak bog market, pre vented any sympathy with the strength In grains.
