STEEL TRADE JTEW8 SETTEE Government's Kepoted Policy Bespecting Jtatltruat Legislation Third Encoui- Factor in Bringing About a More Hopeful Sentiment Among Traders. Hew York Sends Gold to Paris.

Jan. more cheerful sentiment in too stock market thle week was derived from three main sources--the broadening of Investment demand for securities, the signs of a. recovery, at least temporarily. In the steel trade, and belief that the government's policy respecting antitrust 'legislation and enforcement of the Sherman law would less gevere than had been prophesied. Paris Calls for Gold.

While the strong flow of currency toward New York proceeded, the Paris de- nrnnd for gold impaired the supply. Relaxation at Paris was recognized as an Imperative requisite to improvement of the financial situation oa -a. whole. New York's gold shipment was a contribution toward that end. -Much freer offerings of credit resources in New York revived investment demand, giving promise of success in the great future problem of funding the mass of short-term note? coming due.

The Mexican government's suspension of payments on the national debt and the South African strike disturbed Paris and Ixmdon. Conditions in the Steel Xnode. Ivarge numbers of men went back to work In the steel trade, orders increased, and heavy sales of pig Iron were effected. Thla was due largely, however, to the fact that the holiday shutdown was one of the most extensive known, which resulted In an accumulation of orders. Trade authorities held 'that while improvement was manifest, the movement was not sufficiently pronounced to justify statements that a definite, sustained revival In the steel and iron trade was at hand.

Railroad traffic officials were more confident as to the outlook, especially in view of assertions that a. prompt decision on the proposed advance in freight rates was favored by the President. DAILY COTTON MAEKET. New York, January 17. Mdlg.
