Amounts to Little More Than
Exhibition of Greater
Steadiness.
VERY FEW DEVELOPMENTS
Wall Street Is Pleased With
Testimony Before Pujo
Committee.
(Special to The Times-Die patch )
Hew York. January 2*.?A first-rate
impression waa caused in the financial
district by the testimony at the money
trust investigation giren in Washing?
ton late yesterday afternoon by so
many prominent members of ths local
banking community.
Ths strength of the stock market
throughout the day was undoubtedly
doe to this cause, although under mar?
kst conditions like those of the pree
ent. speculators decline usually to in?
dulge for purely general reasons in a
?'covering" movement on the last day
of the week. The rise in the market
did not go very far. and really amount?
ed to no more than the exhibition of
somewhat greater steadiness. There
were declines In a few special stocks,
mostly of the inactive class, such as
Wells-Kargo and Wool worth. There
were no foreign developments of any
note. Sterling exchange was a little
easier and the Atchison's December
earnings statement was good, showing
an increase of tl.Z31.000 in gross and $3J1
aso in net.
The figures of the bank returns
were, in the main, in smaller figures
than has lately been the case. The
Increase in cash was leas, as it was
kaown it would bs. but there was also
a corresponding decrease in bank
loans, owing to a letting up in the pro?
cess of shifting loans from out-of
town banks and those represented in the
clearing house. Theresult was an In?
crease of a little lees than H.500.000 in
the average surplus and of S34O.0QD in the
actual returns. In other words, the
bank condition held its own. During
the last week interest converged on
Mr. Corey's testimony as to the United
States Steel Corporation and upon
President-Elect Wilson's new trust
law proproeale for New Jersey and
upon the very heavy exports of gold,
and finally upon the sensational de?
velopments in Turkey. Yet none of
these served to cause any agitation in
the stock market, and the market re?
mained, in fact, upon a sort of a dead
level It showed many indi-^ations of
a liquidated and oversold condition,
and if general financial confidence
was in a stronger state the presuma
tlon 1? fair that prices would have ral?
lied i onstderably. As it was. there was
e> sharp recovery gji Monday, when
the Wilson trust bills were published,
the general idea being that the new
measures were not so very drastic
after all. and differed but little from
ssVs* that are already laws in many
St; tat
'1 t. Balkan situation and the gold
exports were directly related. When
the Balkan difficulty is all over, and not
before, will the hoarded gold in Prance.
Oermany and other parts of Europe
be released for public use. Until this
happens there will be more or lees of a
state of financial strain in Europe, and
thsre will not be an urgent need for
all the gold we can spare. Cp to the
present time the abundance of money
here has been so great that, people in
the financial district have regarded the
large gold shipments since the first of
the year ae almost entirely academic
They will not. of course, continue to
look at the matter in this way if the
shipments should be so great as to
cause a stiffening on money rates. As
for general mercantile business this
week it was rather more irregular.
Wall Street Gesslp.
It is not long ago that a member of
the New York Stock Exchange was
suspended for the ostensible reason
that he had accepted a speculative
account from a clerk of another Stock
Exchange house. It never has been
fully demonstrated that this was the
reason for the suspension of the firm,
for the governors of the exchange may
suspend or expel anybody for any?
thing whatever. They suspended lea?
der Wormser for indelicate language, (
and there is a provision in the consti?
tution and rules m;tking that an offense,
but apart from that there is a general
welfare clause under which the govern- ,
ing committee may suspend anybody. ;
Only within the last week, for instance,
a member of the exchange has been
told that he must sell his seat and go
away, and no broker and no customer
ever complained against him in rela-1
tion to business transactions. But
this broker appeared in the public
prints, and his demeanor therein was
no*, appealing. Thus it is obvious that
the governing committee of the New ,
York stock Exchange has authority,
so far as its laws go. over any mem?
ber whatever, whether he takes or
does not take, or knows or does not
know, that he is the recipient of stolen
goods. The governing committee {
of the New York Stock Exchange will
make a promulgation to that effect j
the latter part of next week.
The speculators in Woolworth stock
had nothing to say. although they
bad expected that the adjournment
of the Pujo committee would leave
their company, its organizers and
promoters immune. Samuel I'nter
myer. they had been told, was one of
the persons who capitalized the good
will of that company and they hoped
that when the Pujo committee took
a recess the good will would be aa
valuable as that of ths United States
Steel Corporation, for instance. But1
the stock went below par and when
the examination of Wall Street 1*
resumed under a new counsel he is
going to ask about Woolworth. At
the same time the committee will try
to bring not only William Rockefeller
but Daniel Guggenheim to the stand
to tell about copper deals and will
Insist that Mr. Untermeyer himself
be put on the stend and examined
by Mr. Cboate. The (host of Ruesell'
Sage looms up a* tbe only objection
to such procedure.
Wells-Fargo stock sold at ij?. which
Is tfee lowest price in fifteen years. It
was Welle-Fargo that William Nelson

world, where stockholders must not

Wells-Kargo, for he controlled the

Southern Pachte, and which held stork
control in Wells-Fargo. Since Mr. Har

WEEKLY COTTON REVIEW.
New Orleans. January 15.?The week In
tbe cotton market closed at a a net advance
of 28<et,30 points. The high prices were made
on Thursday and tbe low price* on Monday.
At the highest the trading months were SOtaJS
points over last week's close; at the lowest
they were 8443* under -
It was a week of nervous and moderately
wide fluctuations. Some little manipulation
was la evidence. In the early part of the week
the bears bad the advantage, and. encouraged
by their successes last week, applied consid?
erable pressure. The supposed favorable
turn taken in the Balkan situation along about
tbe middle of the week aided the bulls, and
they were able to wrest the control of the
market from their opponents. Tbe overthrow
of the government in Turkey was against the
bulls later, but determined support was of?
fered by them, which resulted In a very steady
undertone right up to the week-end.
Statistics this week favored the bun side
rather strongly, the lnto-sight being small
and the out-of-sight large, while the visible
?upply. for the first time in months, fell below
the supply of a year ago. Few people thought
it possible for mill takings to come anywhere
seer tbe takings this week last year, and yet
Hester put them at ?Ol.noo bales, against 404.000
a year ago. Because of this sod the small
iDto-slgbt. tbe visible supply showed a de?
crease of U7.558 bale*, agaiost this week last
year of 38.44S bale*.
Tbe Census Bureau report on ginning,
issued Thursday, favored tbe short side, but
tbe selling that started was met by a strong
demand coming from leading bull interests.
Tbe total of 12J?1.3M bales ginned up to the
middle of January indicated the* about iH.ooo
bale* were gained la tbe last period, between
tbe 1st aod tbe l?tb of January. This waa in
accordance with bearish predictions. The total
ginniogs led to a revision upward of crop esti?
mate* oa both sides of tbe market
la tbe spot department prices lost oue
<Hghth of a cent, middling closing at 11*?
against I2V? last week, and *H this week last
veer. Sales on the spot amounted to 10.730
bale*, against 2.S? last week, aod ?.350 this
week last year: sales, to arrive, amounted to
4.470 bale*, sgalast 24*5 last week, and 2.415
this week last year.
