With Blight relief in the International credit situation and fresh Indications of tighter money, stocks drifted aimlessly during today's stagnant session, an irregular tone prevailing at the close. A rally of $ rents In the pound sterling had less substantial recoveries lh the French and Italian rates were nullified to a degree by recurrent heaviness of re mittances to Denmark. Norway, Sweden and other neutral centers. , The. money market was Influenced by reports that .banks were withdrawing funds to meet payments at Jhe end of the month. Call loans ooened at 10 ner cent.- the high .initial .quotation of the week, gradually advancing to H per cent, which dupli cated the mayimum of the month. In the stock market cumulative evidence was offered of fresh liquidation among specialties. notably the low grade oils. These were adversely affected by the sus pension of the dividend on Frecport-Texas common stock. Industrials of recognized worth moved contraj-tly, steels- .forfeiting part of the Advantage registered -the previous day as a result of the avrble statement of the United States Steel corporation for the final quarter of last year. The motor group and kindred Issues drew away from the general list, however( displaying pronounced strength on the steady accumulation of General Motors, Chandler and affiliated subsidiaries, where extreme gains extended from 3 to 13 points. Sales amounted to 560,000 shares. Bonds were inclined to rally, especial ly several of the Investment rails and high grade Industrials, but the Liberty group continued to yield, some of those issues making new low records for the cur rent movement.

Washington, Jan. 29. Charges by Rear Admiral William S. Sinjis that the navy was not prepared to enter the war in 1917 are to be investigated by the senate subcommittee already entrusted with inquiry into' the navy V conduct of the. war, which has been criticised by the same of ficer. Acting on written suggestions from Admiral Sims, Chairman Page of the naval committee asked Secre tary Daniels to submit full informa tion as to the condition of the navy just preceding the entrance of tht United States into the war. Admiral Sims'"- letter to' Senafoi Page amplified charges he had made before the subcommittee investigat ing the naval decorations contro versy. After conference with Sen ator Hale, chairman! of the subcom niittee, Senator Page wrote Mr. Dan iels asking that he transmit a de tailed statement showing the loca tion of American warships two1 montns and one montli prior to tht declaratiton of war and their loca tion upon the actual day this coun try entered the war. In addition Senator Page asked for the names of the ships ready for distant serv ice when war was declared and the names of those not ready and the reason for their unpreparedness. Investigation into the naval awards controversy was to have been re sumed tomorrow with Secretary Daniels testifying before the sub committee, but owing to the illness of Senator Trammell, democrat, of Florida, a subcommittee member, the hearing was postponed until Tues day, at which time the secretary will appear. The wider inquiry into Ad miral Sims' charges of unprepared ness and failure to cooperate fully with the allied navies will be mado by the same subcommittee later. No Change in Uniform.

Tovniy consternation I saw, the first surprise of my statement ' over, he evidently interpreted my, cry as proof that T must have been guilty of some offense which had put me iri this man's power. The sudden, keen glance he shot at me made me shudder, for there ', was blended in it a modicum of -re- . grct for having found my feet of clny. and a much greater proportion of sinister jubilation at finding, as he ' supposed, that my conscience and ideals were no higher than his own.
