By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Hy Ornnb. Be I -eased Mir., .
Xcw York, Jan. 17. While those
markets which had been conspicuous
for activity in the month halted again
today, the stock market's compara
tive activity and strength continued.
In general, the movement of the pre
ceding day was repeated, especially
the advance in railway shares. Today
this advance affected both the divi
dend paying stocks and many of the
low-priced shares. It was again most
ly experimental work by professional
speculators; hut .even so it has the
interest which arises from a test
of the disposition of actual holders.
Thus far, the test has not gone any
great distance, and this is the kind
of market to be considered with re
serve. Industrial stocks also ad
vanced again today. Some, of them
have made striking trains since the
month began, notably the motor com
pany shares, whose intrinsic value is
supposed by the traditions of specu
lators to increase during an automo
bile show, no matter what is hap
pening in the trade.
Movement, of th. day In the Investment
bond market were not important; there
wcr. both decline, and advances, but the
prevalent trend of value, wa. .lightly re
actionary. The day', foreign exchange
market was extremely dull- Both Prench
and English government, securities .old
on their own 'European market, around
or above -the best of the season, having
recovered in some cases more than a point
from last week's lowest.
Measured by the treasury, year-end
eslimates, the change in ' the " monetary
stock of the United State, during 1921
has no parallel In 'economic history. The
gold in this country's hands for use as
money increased 1872,154,000 during the
year, yet, despite large increase in silver
dollars also, the money supply decreased
190,625,000: this remarkable discrepancy
being accounted for by 1953,928,000 reduc
tion In our federal reserve note currency.
One question which should be settled
before long 1. the extent to which this
note circulation will expand In case of
genuine trade revival, -Another question
is how long the heaping op of our gold
reserve can continuo at anything like the'
recent rate.' Probably we received in 1921
all of the world's-new production of gold,
but our actual Importations amounted to
twice a. large a sum s. that new pro
duntion. The balance wa. obtained from
the gold taken out of circulation by
European ' governments when they sub
stituted paper currencies; from the ' gold
shipped during that inflation to neutral
countries and now transshipped ny tnem
to us, and from the gold reserve ot the
old Russian Imperial bank.

New York, Jan. 17. Several cotton

manufacturer - Saturday. Trading was
moderate, buyers ordering only a part of
their fall requirements. Gray goods
markets showed a softening tendency, fol
lowing the cotton easing. Yarns were
easier and burlaps lower. Raw silks
steadied a trifle, but showed an easier
tendency. The settlement of the garment
workers' strike quickened the demand for
dress goods.
