Some Investment Demand in
Wall Street Trading;
Selling Pressure Absent.
Sears, Roebuck Up.
NEW YOltK, Jan. 30. On Hie absence
el telling pressure the stock market
opened strotnr. today, nntl, with the ex
ception of n few minutes In the llist
hour, when a fractional reaction occurred,
tile strength was maintained to tho close.
There was a fulr demand for stocks from
room traders, and there wnn also some
J demand from investors, and large In-
estors secmcu io ue iiuumi; io inoir
lines. Interest was diverted from United
'Kinteo Hteel common, which hntl been
:'tlic feature In thu dally trading since
tho dlvldeml was pnHsed. The Bales of
jhe stock wcto tho innallc.il In many a
day. ffl shares changing hands In tho
two-hour session at tho minimum pilco
of 40.
After tho rloso of tho stock maikct It
was unnouncod that the minimum price
on United Stntcs Steel common had hecii
further reduced to 3S. This Is tho third
reduction this week, following tho pass
ing of tho dividend by tho directors ot
the corporation.
Tho now minimum prlco which Is effec
tive on Mondny represents a drop of 10
points since adverse action was tuk'ii on
tho dividend. As thcro are 5,500.000 shaies
of the romuion stock outstanding, with a
'.par value ot $100 per share, tho maikct
Value of tho stock has thus declined :0,
vW.OOO In four days.
Most of the attention was devoted to
United States Steel preferred, which stub
bornly resisted efforts mado two days
ago to force It to tho minimum price ot
102, although It declined to 10215. It closed
yesterday at 103H. and after opening
tales today at 103?i rose to 105, closlnc: at
101J4. Tht borrowliiB demand for United
States Steel preferred Is extremely largo,
and It has loaned Hat for several days.
Tho hears, however, wcro conllilcnt that
liquidation could easily bo forced because
of the deficit In earnings shown in the
ttatcment Issued after tho close on Tues
day, but their confidence seems to ha-?
been misplaced.
New Haven was hard to buy, although
It sold nt tho opening at the minimum
prlco of W. Thero wcro no outsldo sell
ing orders in Right, and n moderate de
mand was sufficient to cause an advance
to 054 before tho close.
On the Now street Curb United Stntcs
Steel Common wna quoted at 33 bid In
the lato forenoon.
Scars Uoebuck & Co. made n gain ot
3V4 to 195T4, with the buying based on re
ports that an extra or Increased distri
bution would be mado by tho directors
at the meeting called for today. Mexican
relroleum was again In demand, advanc
ing Is to 7.1.
it 'ine actual bank statement showed a
? surplus rescrvo ot $I1I,25D,030, an Increuso
of Jl.237,140. Aggregate reserves wcro
1510,923,000, mi Increase of $3,555,100. Loans
Increased 521.011.000 and denoslts Increased

There was little to be nald of the trnd
In on the Philadelphia Stock HxclinitKo
during the two hours It remained open for
business today, A rise of n point to
30 In International Smokeless Powder was
about the only noteworthy ehaiur.
March ! was nrrniiitcd for the special
stockholders' incctmx to volo oil liquida
tion. It Is understood that tho price to
bo paid for the stock is noimnvhere around
30. Insurance Company of North America
n about the only active feature, the
Itiotntlon advancing a fraction. Ilond
dealings wore light.
Helmed appreciation of tho declaration
of the regular dividend on Lehigh Navi
gation lifted tho prlco n fraction, on tho
other hand, tho sale of 100 Ilaldwln pio
fcrred cost tho stock Hi nnd United ClaH
lost half a point. Tho closo was dull anil
steady.
A decided Increase In tho cilumc of
tinnsnotlons in both stocks nnd bonds
was shoivn in tills city for t'no first month
of the new year, ns compured with !o
ccmber. In November, of course, deal
ings wcro only nominal nnd tho oxchnngo
was closed during the throe- previous
months.
In July tho ttndlng was on n ntoio
normal basis. Sales of stocks this month
amounted to about 130.000 shares, ns
agnlnst 106,703 In December nnd 257,400 In
July. Uond transactions showed even
greater expansion, tho total for Jan
uary being $1,003,000, compared with
7118,300 In December and $l,2"S,60O In July.
It can bo seen by thexe figures that busi
ness In tho Iluanclal district has been
rapidly growing normal and the general
consensus of opinion Is that as soon ns
all minimum limits arc removed trading
will expand still further.
Tho formation of a new and olllclal
protective committee to represent pro
fen cd stockholders of tho United Trac
tion Company of Pittsburgh. which Jointly
with the Pittsburgh Itallwnys Company Is
a subsidiary of the Philadelphia Com
pany, follows tho failure of tho fulled
Traction Company directors to declnro
tho Homl-annunl dividend of 2' per cent,
on tho $3.0OT.0iiO preferred stock due this
month. Following an announcement by
the company that It probably would not
declnro tho dividend, a preliminary eom
mlttoe was formed In this city, and It
submitted a proposition to the United
Traction directors. Since then It Is paid
by the committee members that tho direc
tors took no action In cither declaring
tho dividend or formally announcing it
passed.

ARSENAL WORKERS GET AID
Congressman Donohoe Promises Sup
port for Uniform Wage Scale,
Conerossman Uonohoo today promliied
employes ut tho Frankford Arsenal ho
would da everythlnK n his power to bring
about tho establishment of a uniform
wage seals In alt the- Government ammu
nition plants as n result ot the abolish
ment o( thu tonus system at the local
arsenal. At a conference ha heard th
complaints of the workers, who say that
the $1E,000 which Colonel Oeorge Mont
gomery expects to fiuvo by meaiui of the
new reirulatioti will cume out of tbeir
nay envelopes.
The abolishment of the bonus system
camti as the result ot the Dietrich bill,
vyhlch prohibits the paying ot bonusee In
Government plants. This measure has
already passed lhB House, and, while
pending before the Senate, it to predicted
In Washington It will btcome law.
A committee of BA, representing ever

would be acceptable to alt consented.
Bu Pont Company to Pay $30 a
Share for International,
WII.MI-N'UTO.V, Del.. Jan. 30. Though
n formal offer has not been mado for
the atock of tho International StnoltelesB
Powder and Chomlcnl Company by tho
D11 I'ont concern, It is stated on good
authority that tho prlco will be around
30, which Is considered an excellent offer
hy thoso who control tho company. There
aro 180,000 shares of stock of 11 par vnluo
of ?W a share, which would make 11 totul
of tD.OCO.OGO, but the stock Iiiih not sold
for par. Thcro hnvo been rumors nhotit
that IS wna the price to be paid for tho
stock, but one of the Du I'ont'olllcluls de
clares unit the pi Ice which would be
paid would ho around 30.
Accotdlns to those interested, the com
pany, which ha n plnnt nt I'arlln, N. J.,
liftH mndo some military powder und soma
chemical mixtures, hut It Ikih done no ex
port business to amount to nnythlng. nnd
It hn been controlled hy I)u I'ont In
terestH for pome time, Colonel 15. a. nuck
ner, who Is tho vlco president, of tho
Du I'ont Company and In chnrgo of tho
military powder department, being presi
dent of the other company, ll la dn-
rlurcil that for somo time tho directors
hnvo been willing to recommend that the
company be liquidated provided that tho
prlco desired wus reached. Tho demand
for plants by the Du I'ont Company at
this tlmo on. uccount of big contracts for
powder on hand has mado It possible to
get this price, which Is considered, It Is
declared, to bo moro thnn n fair prlco
for the stock, lu fact an advantageous
price.
At a meeting of the directors held hero
late yesterday the matter was dlscusned,
dud tho directors adopted a resolution
providing for a special meeting ot the
stockholders on March a to vote on the
proposition which Is to bo made at that
time. It will bo for tho stockholders to
decide, of course, whether or not to ac
cept tho offer.
Ariked concerning the reason for the
liquidation, John J. Itaskob, treasurer of
the Du I'ont Powder Compony, who Is
thoroughly familiar with the negotiations
which have been carried on, said that tho
directors had received an offer which they
considered advantageous and which was
satisfactory to them, and thay had there
fore decided to call a meeting of the
stockholders for the purpose of consider
ing tho matter, and added that almost
every concern bad a prlco at which It
would sell if that price was offered.
The Du I'ont Powder Company Is now
busy with all of Its mills running full
tlmo making powder and the plant of the
other company could be used to consider
able advantage. How many contracts the
company has on hand no one except tho
official) of the company know and they
will not discuss the subject, but It Is
known that It Is making immense quanti
ties of powder at high prices.
As far as local people know, the whole
situation, so far aa the International
Smokeless Im concerned. Is that the Du
'out Company wants It and le willing to
pay the price.

Irregular tone. Gilt-edged Investments

The American group was mixed, with
weakness In spots, on ndvjco from New
York. Tho Harrlman issues were flat.

In Argentine rolls. Mexican Rallwny Is
sues were steadier, on the belief that the
political situation In that country showed
Improvement. Thcro was buying ot IlU3
slan and Japanese securities, nnd mining
and rubber shnres were steady.
Investment buying took place In tho
stoeks of meat companies. The Bank of
