Rigorous weather | gave another severe setback to the, fuel and transportation. situations some of the mcre important centers of the middle west reporting indus: | trial conditions bordering upon par-! alysis. ‘Advices from abroad, more partic ularly within the central empires, also lost some of their more encouraging aspects of the previous week, but the; only, outward reflection of European affairs was furnished by the recur-| rent heaviness of exchange on Italy. | The few financial statements of the} day were relatively better, Southern | railway and Atlantic Coast Line, for | example, showing net gains for Dec- mber, while Chicago & Northwestern reported only a nominal,net decrease. Rails were an unimportant factor in the day's dealings, however, activity again. centered around industrials, eq- | uipments and pooled specialties. Fore- most in the latter groups were the motors fertilizers and distilling issues, at gross advances of two to five points. United States steel was under per-| sistent pressure at an extreme set- back of almost two points, very, little of which was recovered. Bethlehem steel, shippings and oils constituted the other important heavy isues. Sales amounted to 520,00 shares. ‘Bonds showed a. lower tendency,) French issues again weakening.
