ferred stock again sold off to within a
fraction of its minimum. Other active
stocks including Pacifies, St. Paul ami
Reading were lower, but the list made
general recovery after the absorption
of initial offerings. The 1-iondon market
showed numerous advances for Amer
icans, but refusal of the T-iondon Ex
change to reduce the minimum price oil
Steel cause,] the automatic withdrawal
of that stock abroad.
The tendency to break away from
the industrial list was the feature ot'
the morning session. Gains of a point
from yesterday's final figures were
made by many active railway shares.
Steel common rose 3-8 above its mini
mum, but was freely offered on the ad
vance and fell liack. Bonds were firm.

TURKS' VIGOROUS ATTACKS
REPULSED BYTHE RUSSIANS
Petrograd, Jan. 28.—The general
staff of the Russian army of the Cau
casus gives out the followiug official
announcement concerning the progress
of the fighting in that country;
"On the morning of January 26,
Turkish forces in the vicinity of Sul
tan Selim, in the Tchoruk country, de
livered a series of vigorous attacks on
our positions, all of which we repulsed.
In the vicinity of Olti, 55 miles west
of Kara, the Turks, following their
custom of recent days of taking the
offensive, sent forward an enveloping
column. This column was, however,
thrown back by 11s and the Turks sus
tained heavy losses.
"In Azerbaijan province, Persia, the
activity of the enemy is increasing. It
has been noticed particularly that
numerous bands of Kurds, supported
by regular Turkish troops, have under
taken offensive operations in the vicin
ity of Kohi, but everywhere they have
been repulsed. Along the other Cau
casian fronts on January 26, the mili
tary activity was confined to lillo lire."
