NEW YORK. Jan. 9.?As jiumuidf
is terms of security values. Wall street
did sot take kindly to the President's
comprehensive statement of war alms
aa set forth in his unexpected message
to Congress yesterday. Stocks
declined. The address as viewed by
financial interests offered little hope
of on early eolation of the many grave
problems now engaging the attention
of this country and its associates is
the war.
Previous to its delivery?in fact,
throughout the forenoon and daring
the early mid-session?prices were 1
to 3 points higher in the several
groups of peace and war shares and
considerably higher in certain specialties.
For example, Americas "iooacco
made an extreme gain of '14 points,
presumably in connection with the
stated retention of its existing dividend
rate, and Texas Company advanced
points.
Various other speculative Issues received
much of their upward Impulse
from the decision of the supreme
'ourt setting aside the federal Income

CHICAGO. Jan. 9.?President Wilson's
address to Congress brought
achat considerable selling of grain
yesterday chiefly by those who drew
quick inference that the outlook for
an early peace had been improved.
Such optimism, however, did not
seem to be shared by the bulk of the
trade who held off pending further
developments. Prices closed onset
