Steel was not quot ed in the early dealings but came out later in a block of 1,500 shares at 48, its minimum. Secondary prices wore generally better, Pennsylvania, Read ing, Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific, Southern Pacific and Amalgamated ad vancing ever yesterday's closing. New Vork Central also was strong on decla ration of tlie regular dividend and Le high Valley, which at first exhibited heaviness, soon recovered. Chosnpoake and Ohio and Delaware and Hudson were weak, the latter losing over three points. Short covering which contributed in large degree to the early rally, was soon completed, wheronpoti the list gradually reacted in all quarters. Ca nadian Pacific, Baltimore and Ohio, Southern Railway, common and pre ferred, :uid Virginia-Carolina Chemical were added' to the list of stocks already offered at minimum prices and other shores of equal importance were within fractional range while over a score of miscellaneous stocks were at bottom quotations. Steel, after gaining a frac tional, promptly fell back to its estab lished price. A decline of 2 1-4 points in Lehigh Valley between sales was a feature. Bonds were heavy with Erie Gefieral 4s the feature.

AUSIRIANS GIVE REASONS FOR DEFEATjy SERVIANS liondon, Dec. 24, 4.25 A. M.—Tieu ter's Vienna correspondent says au ofli cial communication issued in Vienna ex plains t>he reasons for the defeat oened au attack, the offensive had been given up. "It was thought prudent not to offer [ decisive battle under these unfavorable i conditions. Forced by adverse coudi | tions our troops retreated from Servia i but they are not defeated. That on our retreat we suffered severe losses in men and war material had been inevitable, but reports are mutfh exaggerated con cerning our losses." The report -concludes with the state ment that the Emperor consented to dis charge the commander-in-chief, the res ignation being demanded on tho grounds rhat the commander's health was poor and appointed to this post General Archduke Eugene. LUTE WAR NEWS SUMMARY C'taHiued From Ftrat Pace. Italy, was torpedoed by an Austrian submarine. It is stated that the dam age was slight and that no men were injured. Although accounts vary as to the present status of military affairs In Poland, lt Is evident that the scene of heaviest lighting has shifted south-ward from Sochacizw, the town on the Bzura river 30 miles from Warsaw toward the German's for several days direct ed their principal efforts. Austro-Ger raan forces operating from the Cra cow Bazaar arc attempting to push northward into Poland. In this effort however, they ate nioetiug with de termined resistance from the Russians. A semi official statement from Pet rograd says that Russian successes in Galicla continue and that in the Car pathians the Austrians have been thrown back. Another sortio by the garrison at Przemysl, which has long been under attack by the Russians is said to have resulted disastrously for the Austrians. Heavy lighting continues in France and Belgium, but thus far the renewed activities have accomplished little, neither side being able to drive the other from the strongly fortified posi tions held so long. Now that the French government has returned to Paris, a venturesome German aeronaut has attempted to prove that the capital is not yet with out the war zone by flying- over it. He was brought down by a French aero plane, however, at a point "l!> m ii cs Irom the city of Paris. LITTLE CHANCE ALONG WAR FRONT ON EVE OF CHRISTIHASCELEBOATION London, Dec. 21, 12.20 P. M . Christmas eve finds little change in i In underground warfare now being con ducted in the western wui ffieutij, where General Joffre, the commauder tn-chiel ot the FYonch armies, still ;q>. pears to bo cautiously feeling for nit opening in the strongly outrem-hed Ger man line across France and Belgium. In the east a supreme German effort continues to be made doto re Warsaw the capital of Russian Coland. where the forces of the German center tnui of the Russians, seeking to check them sway back and forth along the batiks of the rivers barring Ihc way to tne Polish capital. Bringing Up 12-centimetre Guns The Russians claim successes in r,io latest encounters, nut during the last ten days the Germans have advanced appreciably and it is said they are ne v bringing up their 42-centimetre guns preparatory to siege operations. In Galicin the Aiistro-Oerinau forms seem to have made no further progre-s and iu the north the Russians are re- | |»orto j ther back into Kxst Prussia. The German taction in the march re ward Warsaw, military observer? in I London point out, aro beginning to have ) some of the ebara-tensties of the rn li | toward Calais and I>imkirk. which tin) allies stemmed, thousands being aacri j (iced and others being hurled fm vv;:nl I to (ill gaps with the same prodigal it v that was shown by the Germans in | Flanders. Military experts here are inilde to , agree on the number of the A j German troops in tie cast, ostinmlcs i varying from 1,000,000 to 1,500,000, j but it is pointed ou! that Russia, nnle-s i exaggeraf in? h°r resources should be I able easily to top this figure now that j her concentration of forces is Hearing ; completion. i Petrograd has never conceded that the occupation of Lodz by the Germans j had any strategic importance, but the German view has now found OApreaaii'ii i from Field Marshal Von liludenbur;.', | who remarked to the representative of : tho Associated Press on the eastern | front that he considered it the turning point of the campaign.

STRANGE EFFECT OF WAR ON FUTURE FISH TRADE St. John's N. F., Doc. 2 4.— X. strange effort of the war is its bearing on the future of the fish trade oil' Now Foundland and Martimc Canada. The war has revived the alliance bctweeui the Great Britain and I'ortmjißl and a refcailt has been that a discrimination made by Portugal for many years against fish from New Foundland and the Canadian niartime provinces, has been removed. The products of this region are now admitted to Portuguese markets on an equality with those of ail other countries. Until hostilities began the chief beneficiary of the conditions then ex isting was Norway, which, bocauno of general trade, with Portugal enjoyed an advantage in the matter of duty charged on dry fish entering Portu guese harbors equivalent to from 25 to 3-5 cents per qtiintel of 112 pounds, according to the fluctuation in the rate of exchange. This g«vc the Norwegians sufficient advantage (o permit them to undersell the New Foundland and Can anian product. Representations had been made several times by the gov ernment of New Foundland and Cana da in au effort to obtain the removal of this handicap, but without avail until after the war began, when the desired alterations were made. 13
