In the Stock Market
(By Thomson & McKinnon! NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—indecision ruled in the stock market today. Prices were governed largely by fitful short covering rallies and scattered liquidation. Market movements were narrow and foreshadowed no particular trend or development in business. Some of the pressure on the market recently seems to be traceable in part to the knowledge that a chart employed by a leading utility corporation to guide its operations indicates that business is at the lowest point of the present depression. Be that as it may, the general impression is that much of the unsatisfactory state of affairs has been discounted. Moreover, some business improvement Is noted. Developments of the day in a commercial way were unimportant. A firmer price tone prevailed in copper metal and advances In retail and wholesale gasoline prices were posted in the eastern territory.

JOB INSURANCE BILL IS GIVEN STATESENATE Holmes Measure Carries Emergency Clause Calling for Prompt Action. Senator C. Oliver Holmes (Rep., Lake) Introduced his unemployment insurance bill in the senate Friday with an emergency clause calling for prompt action and making the bill effective immediately upon passage. The bill was assigned to the committee on labor, of which Senator Roscoe Martin (Rep., Casa and Fulton) la chairman. Under provisions of the measure, employes will create the unemployment insurance fund by contributing \Vz percent of their weekly or monthly pay roll fetal, thus creating a reserve similar to that by which industry now pays dividends in slack times. Employes, after the fourth week out of employment, may collect benefits not to exceed $lO weekly. The only cost to the state will be the administration through the state industrial board. Benefits will not be paid for more than thirteen weeks of any one year and, to collect, the employe must have had at least weeks work in the industry during the two years previous to the lay-off. The $lO weekly may be obtained by those over 18 and $5 for those under 18, or the latter may collect 60 per cent of their weekly pay if it is less than $5. Holmes’ bill was drafted on the lines laid down by the American committee on labor legislation. It differs from the so-called “dole system," in that the state does not make the payments from taxation. The bills fostered by the Indiana Bankers’ Association also were introduced in the senate today by Senators Winfield Miller and Robert L. Moorhead (Rep., Marion). One will limit the deposit liabilities of a bank to not more than ten times the capitalization and the other makes bank holding company stockholders liable in the same manner as bank stockholders.

Tha market sold off slightly in the early trading, later becoming stronger and in several Issues prices advanced above Thursday’s clewing prices. The market continued dull with better than usual trading in Noblitt Sparks and Cord, which was well taken at firm prices as was Houdaiile Hershey and Borg Warner at better prices. However, rallying tendencies showed no ability to assume important proportions as yet, and there is nothing in the situation to suggest any immediate change in the irregularly lower trend of the past week. •—-Jao. 16— * TOTAL SALES 101,500 SHARES High.

In the Cotton Markets
(By Thomson & McKinnon) NEW YORK, Jan. 16.—Cotton prices were a shade better this morning, but there was not enough change in the market to attract the attention of any other than professional Interests. Textile affairs, the world over, as gathered by consular agents, seem to be in a stabilized condition. The low price at which cotton is selling has probably discounted all unfavorable factors. Inactivity on the various exchanges testifies to the same effect. We cannot look upon cotton as a sale from a long time point of view. In the first place, no merchant who is unembarrassed by accumulated stocks will sell an article below replacement cost. As it stands today, as far as the manufactured article is concerned, stocks are lower probably than ever before. Given a general improvement in business, and higher cotton prices are almost sure to follow. CHICAGO Hish. Low. Close.

WHEAT MOVES DOWNWARD ON WEAKSUPPORT Free Short Covering Forces Grain Futures Down Near Close. Bp United Prcst CHICAGO, Jan. 16.—Successive waves of selling hit the old crop months on the Board of Trade today as a result of the recent free short covering which weakened the technical position of the market and prices dropped sharply. Commission houses were on the selling side of July, and that month went down with the stabilized deliveries. There was no support, strrfy buying orders met the decline, but rallies could not be held. The weakness spread to the corn pit where prices slumped heavily, but recovered. Oats sold lower in sympathy with the major grains, but steadied with corn. At the close wheat was 1H to IS cent lower, with July 1 cent off: corn was to cent lower, and oats were cent lower to H cent higher. Provisions were steady to strong, lard advancing with hog prices. Liverpool held around steady at the early decline and closed \ to 4 cent lower. Buenos Aires was off to cent at mid-day. Winnipeg was off a fraction, but some Canadian wheat was'sold for .export overnight. Cash prices were 1 to 2 cents lower. Receipts were 109 cars. Com was steady at the start, but the weakness in wheat and pressure from commission houses dropped the market around 14 cent at midsession. 'Hie feeding demand has lessened owing to the unseasonably high temperatures. Buenos Aires com is selling around 30 cents, a fact that is attracting attention. There was some buying on the decline, but no disposition to rally was shown. Cash prices were % to T 4 cents lower. Receipts were 116 cars. Scattered selling in oats dropped prices around % cent in that pit at the start where the market hung at mid-moming. Selling was ascribed to liquidation by longs. There was some support on resting orders and by shorts, but traders were discouraged.
