New York, Dec. 14.—The stock mar- } ket today registered many substantial , recoveries from the acute depression of the preceding session. The heavi- ness of some high grade securities, in- cludihg bonds, militated against a gen- eral advance until the last hour, when trading became very active, leaders adding one to two points to earlier gains of like extent. More Hopeful View. There were no new developments to], account for the movement, but a more hopeful view was entertained of the. governmental control. The strength of coppers and affiliated shares suggest- ed a satisfactory compromise between producers and the war board regard- ing price regulation. Industrials were sustained by the support accorded the favorites, United States stecl reflecting buying of the best character. Steel made an ex- treme advance of 1% to 84%, cost of which was retained. Affiliated steels, equipments, ship- pings, motors and oils participated in equal or gredter measure, and utili- ties, among the early elements of weakness, also rallied in whole or large part. Gains in Rails. Gains in rails ranged from.two to three points among standard issues and one to two in others of less im- portance, the demand being the broad- est of che week. Sales amounted to 555,009 shares. The bond market was agin adversely affected by new low quotations for in- ternationals and investment rails, but better tendencies ruled at°the close. Tiberty #4’s held steady at’ 97.30 to 97.38 and the 31's at 98.49. to 98.54. Total sales (par value) aggregated $4,125,000. United States bonds, were unchanged on call. COLD HELPS BUSINESS. Christmas Grade Hardly Standard But Fair Under Conditions. New York, Dec. 14.—Dunn’s tomor: row will say: Only in the retail field have storms and low temperatures been helpful to business, and it is of less geveral im- portance that demands for seasonable commodities have been accelerated and atighiented than that transporta- tion problems have been aggravated and manufacturing still further imped- .ed. Through the vigorous and unusual medaures taken to better conditions, partial relief from the freight conges- tion was indicated before real winter weather sect in over a wide area, but plants have been forced to shut down altogether or appreciably reduce oper- ations because of the added difficul- ties of obtaining fuel. The stoppage of curtailment of work is. especially unfortunate at a time when the pres- sure for supplies of various materials and merchandise for the government and other interests is so great, and in branches where regular buying has diminished the change is not unwel- come, with producers hampered as they are. That strictly civilian trade, while not so conspicuously active as previously, remains large in the ag- gregate reports make clear, pee Christmas shopping has started jn old issucs, on the whole. But holiday purchases in most instances are both more con- servative and discriminating than last year, and emphasize the movement to- ward economy which has grown out of the war, and which is spreading all ‘sections. s ‘Weekly bank clearings $5,177,251,- 052.

QUALITY Prices Off a Shade But Plenty of Buyers for Meager Arrivals at Terminals. Chicago, Ills. ‘Dec. 14.—Ideal condi- ticns for improving the quality of corn gave some advantage to the bear side of the corn market. Vrices averaged a little lower and closed steady at yesterday's finish to %c down, with Jan, 1.21% and May 1.19, Oats lost % to 1%, and provis- ions 37c to $1. Quite heavy commission house sell- ing of corn took place and made the volume ct business noticeably larger than has been the rule of late. The market rec ed good support, though, and no radical setback in prices was effected at any time. Receipts were still so meager that numerous buyers seemed, ¢ ely willing to take all chances coucerning a betterment of the quality of offerings and,to risk Whitever rease of arrivals might follow an escape from the prevailing coll wave. Depression in oats resulted to a considerable extent from gossip that the government had asked New Or- leans exporters to curb their activities until an accumulation of stocks could be made at interior terminals. Be- seides, a good deal of selling was done on the theory that a four days’ ad- vance in’prices was more than enough. ~ Big supplies of hogs at the chief cen- ters throughout the west broke the provision market, especially pork. Stock yard intcrests unloaded. NO WOOL FOR EXPORT. Prohibitive Orders on Abroad in Effect. ‘Washington, Dec. 14.—Restrictions governing the exportation .and impor- tation of wool were tightened today by the war trade board with a view to conserving American supplies and checking the increase in prices which have risen two hundred per cent. No commodities containing woo! will be permitted in future to leave the country, it was announced, if in the judgement of the board the wool is needed for the uses either of the army or navy, importers before they }can obtain licenses will be permitted to sign an agreement that they will sell no wool to, persons other than manufaciurers and that they will give the government an option to purchase all wool imported at a price five per cent. less than the price that obtained for the same grade July 30, last.
