FRIDAY EVENING,
I gest a conflict of opinion among
I traders.
! The uncertainty in the situation be
tween Washington and Berlin was the 1
cause of further caution on the part of I
prospective buyers and the short in- j
terest evidently hesitated to press its'
| advantage. Nevertheless some import-I
i ant stocks, such as Atlantic Gulf and I
'West Indies, Crucible Steel, Baldwin!
j Locomotive and Erie made new low
; records for the current movement— 1
I Steel fluctuated narrowly but Beet'
i Sugar, American Locomotive, Utah '
' Copper. Lehigh Valley and Northern I
i Pacific were firm. The market be- '
cfme more irregular later on the i
| heaviness of steel.
i A brisk inquiry for steel and otherl
| leaders caused a general strengthen
ing of the market before the end of
i the first hour. Steel rose to 104 %,
:an extreme advance of 2 % points', i
j with equal or greater gains in coppers] i
equipments, oils and sugars. Ship- |
pings also hardened, averaging 2 '
points over yesterday. Utah Copper!
and Beet Sugar were the outstanding
features, the former gaining almost
four points, with over eight for sugar.
Hails were comparatively backward

Instructions on Sailings
New York,; Feb. 2. Owners of
. American vessels in trans-Atlantic
trade probably will follow the ex
ample of the ship owners of the en
tente nations and abide by the in
structions of their government in re
gard to running the risks of the now
German blockade regulations. They
awaited to-day the reply of the State
Department to a message sent by P.
A. S. Franklin, president of the In
ternational Mercantile Marine, seek
ing advice as to the future move
ments of steamships of the American
Line.
Unless orders to the contrary are
received from Washington the Am

have been made, Mr. Franklin said, j
to send wireless instruction* to the j
vessels of the line now at sea.
Many Notables Aboard
j The ship ot the American Line i
whose safe arrival is awaited with the!
' greatest anxiety is the Philadelphia, I
from New York to Liverpool. This j
J morning; the Philadelphia was bo- 1
, lieved to be about 1,200 miles from j
' Liverpool, l ier port engine is out of i
commission, due to the breaking of i
| crank shaft last Saturday and it is!
I believed that she cannot make port!
| until late Monday. The Philadelphia
I carries 14S passengers of whom 35
(are Americans. Among those on board I
'are Mrs. Whitlaw Reid, the Misses
I Helen and Ethel Crocker, of San >
i Francisco; Lieut. John Eager, U. S. i'
I A., and Captain Koald Amundsen,
Arctic explorer.
i The Findinnd of the same line, also >
I from New York, is due to arrive at <
! Liverpool on Sunday. Forty-six ot
her 111 cabin passengers are Amer
icans.
The French liner Chicago, which
carries a number of American pass
engers, is thought to bo duo at Bor
deaux to-day. Another vessel on which
Americans sailed is the Baltic of the
White Star Line, which steamed from
this port Monday for Liverpool. She
is due to arrive next Wednesday.
Freighters Sailing
No passenger steamers have left
New York for Europe since the
declaration of the German blockade,
but several freight, ships sailed yester
day and last night. The shipping em

! intended to continue every night until
f the situation cleared was modified last
night and several vessels were allow
ed to pass out
A number of American citizens aro
here to-day anxious to sail for Europe,
despite the dangers of submarine war
fare. Most of them are buyers who
' arc anxious to get to Europe to pre
f pare for the summer trade. A few
3 women who wish to serve In Eu
. ropean war hospitals also have
- booked passage on the St. Ix>uis.
Agents of Dutch and Danish steam

\ awaiting orders from their govern
ments.
According to Information given out

RED BLOOD AND BIG MUSCLE
The lull-blooded man or woman
usually has large muscles. Pale peo
ple are ordinarily thin; their muscles
are small. v
Muscles are red not only because of
the blood in them but because they
contain hemoglobin, the same substance
that gives the red color to the blood.
And it is this hemoglobin that carries
oxygen in the blood and stores it up in
the muscles.
Well oxidiattl blood is necessary if
we "vould have strong muscles. In fact
oxygen is the great supporter of life.
Oxygen is used up wnen we work.
When a set of muscles ar6 active, aft
those of the back when we lift some
thing, their oxygen is used and unless
the blood is rich and red with oxygen
bearing hemoglobin thosemusclesache.
If you are pale and your back aches
don't blame your kidneys. Try build
ing up tho blood with Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills. These pills cause an in
crease of hemoglobin in the blood and
so enable it to carry more oxygen.
There is renewed life and ambition.
Everywhere tiiat the new blood goes it
carries vigor and this tonic treatment
is the ono thing thAt most rundown,
debilitated people need.
