' qg- N.Y.C. IS FEATURE INSTOCK MARKET | {Trading Heavy as ' Stock | fTouches 144—a, C. L. and ' “Katy” Are Also Strong. ‘ ¥ BY STUART I'. WE Bpeofal Dispateh to The Star, W YORK, January market which changes very Yondition from day to day the point of interest should be whether recent | operations on the Stock Exchange have been bringing a larger response from the outside. Transactions run- ning steadily 1500,000 and 'more | shares per day would in the past have | suggested a lively speculation. | Under present conditions, however, 1t is nothing more than proper volume of a market where large professional operations are in progress. Any de- cided increase in the sales from the way they have been running day after day for the last month would have some meani But this in crease does not oceur, and until it does it cannot be assumed that the present Wall Street procedings are branching out to any broad and sus- tained upward movement. Rail Buying Factor. Stocks are going up for individual freasons rather than general reasons. The desire of big railroad interests to increase their holdings of other roads has been, and seems likely to be, an important factor. Investment buying is another powerful influence, but it is based upon consideration of the in- terest return rather than upon the possibility of higher dividends, al- though this, too, is being duly re- led. a New York Central was one of the rail leaders today, with heavy trading as the stock reached 144.

Industrial shares were irregular. ¥imken Roller Bearing evidently had not exhausted the effect of all the good things said about the new rail- road branch of the business. Liquid Carbonic sold ex-dividends and more than made it up. Eureka Vacuum Cleaner, also with the dividend off, ‘was quoted most of the time at yes- terday's prices. ‘Walworth Co. res made a new high for the year. Even in the usual swiftly moving Ities, however, it was a day of wvery little interest. Steel stocks, for the most part, were dull, with United States Steel fluctuating during the greater part of the time within a .ar- row range. Colorado Fuel and Iron ‘was higher, while other independent steels were higher. No further efforts ‘were made to arouse interest in the copper shares. American Smelting held most of yesterday’'s gains, Ana- conda was lower, whils Kennecott and Chile were little changed.

Bright ! of the National Metropolitan Bank will again serve the association as man- ager. For a long time the association has given $50 a year to the student at the local Institute of Banking showing the greatest proficiency in his work.

The forum dinner of Washington Chapter, American Institute of Bank- ing, at the City Club last evening, was attended by nearly 175 bankers, the largest number ever attending a local affair of this kind. Previous to the address by Ralph Given, assist- ant United States attorney, on the bad check law, President Howard Moran of the District Bankers' Association, greetings from that body: Harry V. Haynes aroused great en- thusiasm by announcing the new clearing house prizes, and I. J. Rob- erts, chairman of the institute's edu- cational committee, made a plea for the courses which are just now start- ing for the second half year. H. W. Burnside, chairman of the dinner com- ce, presided. “The bad check law is good as far as it goes, but it does not go far enough,” said Attorney Given, who gave a very comprehensive summary of conditions in this city. Concerted action on the part of the merchants and the bankers will do much to im- prove the situation, he asserted. He explained the weaknesses in the pres. ent law and showed the difficulties in getting convictions in many cases. He considers that some of the mer- chants are too free in cashing checks brought in by versons they do not know. The merchants say they are so liberal because they fear offending some of their customers. The discussion which followed the talk brought out much additional in- formation. Post-dated checks are always causing trouble. Grocers and other merchants are often too will- ing to make a 50-cent sale and cash a $25 check for some unknown customer. Some of the stores are so lax because they carry large in- surance against bad check losses. Yet, conditions here are vastly bet- ter than they were before the pres- ent law. Convention Plans Advanced. Further plans for entertaining the Eastern regional conference of the State bank division American Bank- ers' Association, were made at the clearing house meeting which has this convention in charge. The con- ference will take place some time in April and at least 650 or 700 visit- ing bankers are expected. . The general committee is made up of Howard Moran, chairman; Harry V. Haynes, vice chairman; Francis G. Addison, jr., secretary; Victor B. Deyber, treasurer. Other members will be added to the general com- mittee in a short time and the exact dates will be decided upon. The conference will last two days and headquarters will be at the H Willard. President Traylor in City. Melvin A, Traylor of Chicago, pres- ident of the American Bankers’ Asso- ciation, is in Washington for a few days, and yesterday was present at the weekly luncheon of local bankers at the Willard. W. W_Hoxton, chair 1, {man of the board of directors of the Federal Reserve bank of Richmond, was also present. Both men mada brief but very interesting talks. It is understood that President Traylor is here at this time in the in- terest of the McFadden banking bill, which is slated to come up in the House next Monday. According to present plans Representative McFad- den will speak for the measure and Congressman Wingo against it. A decidedly lively debate is promised, as every possible effort is now being made to get this legislation passed in some form at this session. Mr. Traylor and fhe legislative com- mittee of the American Bankers' As- sociation have just made public a long statement explaining in detail the po- sition of the association and clearing up many misstatements that have been circulated.
