Efforts to Continue Late Rally
Not Well Maintained; Spe
cialties Advance
New York, Jan. 28. —Efforts to
continue yesterday's late rally were
made at the outset of to-day's trad
ing. numerous stocks rising from ma
terial fractions to over a point, but
the Improvement was not well main
tained, prices receding very generally
on secondary offerings. War shares
were strongest, that group averaging
gains of 1 % points, with slmjlar ad
vances In oils. United States Steel
rose to 84, an overnight gain of %,
but this was soon cancelled. Rails
made only slight gains at the opening
anil these also were forfeited in large
part, owing chiefly to heaviness tn
Union Pacific and St. Paul.
Trading came to a halt before the
end of the first hour, prices mean
while ! lying made recoveries to or
near opening levels, but the move
ment lacked vigor.
In the second hour spirited ad
vances in specialties, notably Crucible
Steel and Allied issues as well as
Petroleums and Motors Imparted
fresh strength, which also embraced
seasoned stocks, such as Union Pacific
and others that had shown early
weakness. Stocks were in supply on
the rise, slight recessions resulting.
Bonds were steady.

Critics Believe Germans
Will Start New Drive on
Northern Russian Front
By Associated Press
Petrograd, Jan. 28.—Early renewal
of military activity along the northern
end of the Russian front, in the Riga
and Dvlnsk districts, is forecast by
Russian military critics. Their expec
tation is based in part on the unusual |
activity of German air craft in recon- i
noitering the Russian lines. Not. only
aeroplanes, but Zeppelins, are being
employed.
This activity. In connection with in
formation obtained of the prisoners
captured in Bukowina concerning re
moval of German troops from that, re
gion, leads to the belief that the Ger
mans may be preparing an offensive in
the north for the purpose of counter
ing the Russian attack in Bukowina.
Along the Strlpa river the artillery
Are of the Teutons is increasing daily
in intensity and it is assumed they are
preparing an offensive under cover of
the bombardment. Trench battles, in
which hand grenades and mines are
employed, are occurring along the
banks of the Dneister and between
Boyan and Rarance. Boyan is imme
diately to the east of Czernowilz, which
indicates the Russians are holding con
quered territory close to that impor
tant center.
The comparative Inactivity In Buko
wina during the last few days Is ex
plained by seasonal conditions. Mud
is knee-deep, which Is said to have
had much to do with bringing op
erations to a standstill.
As for the Caucasian campaign,
there has been no official report of a
further advance.
Angry Crowd of Swiss

The Federal Council of Switzerland

many for the insult to the flag.
U-BOATS ACTIVE
New York, Jan. 28.—Numerous Ger

London, Jan. 28. Premier Asqulth

to January 9 were 549,467, of which
24,122 were officers and 525,345 of

The winter's inactivity on the fight- ,
