By X. A. FLKMDTG.
One may be pardoned for digression
from local matters to give a little atten
tion to the wonderful, unexpected action
of the New York Stock Market the day
after 'the Wilson avalanche.
Wall Street has a reputation for doing
what "It will and for dolnr the -unexpected.
It la a discounter of all things,
unless It may be decisions of the Bu-
preme Court of the United States.
But yesterday "It gave a most surpris
ing account of Itself.
With the entire control of the White
House, Senate and Bouse in the hands
of the Democratic party vrlth .practical
certainty, in time of tann revision, mm
the assurance that trusts must be good.
Ate In slacat-of clothing itself In sack'
cloth and' ashes, and permitting values
j or securities to meic, as preaictea, wii
Street blazed out Into ,&. great big bull
market.
There were a few stocks that pre
sented a sickly appearance, but ninety
nine out of a hundred stood up to the
rack beautifully and made good gains.
The bears were down early. They
lumped on Beet Sugar with a hearty
will and before the session was as
many minutes old they had cut J5 a
share from its value and this, with the
S they took away from It Monday,
made eleven points loss In two busi
ness days.
Everywhere throughout the list the
bears made their opening play, but
elsewhere they met only small suc
cesses, and then the lightning struck.
Buying became something enormous,
orders were sent into the exchange over
every phone, and they were buying com
missions: In a few moments the bears
saw the changed situation, located buy
ing, and turned to run.
But they could not run in a body,
They had attacked with the united im
pulse of the "Onward Movement," the
halting and about face was a retreat.
Falling over each other to get out they
forgot limits and covered, their one de-
tire, regardless of price.
Old time bears could not understand
the action.
Conservative traders kept away. It was
too dangerous a market for the non
reckless ones.
The shorts were whipped ta fraz
xle." and then some.
Gains of 2 3-S in Steel common, 4 3-8
in Union Pacific and 3 5-S In Reading,
coming on top of an early decline, indi
cates the unexpected and great advance.
These three are the great trading stocks
on "Change, 3 per cent of the business
being in them, but the gains went on
throughout the list.
St. Paul, 34: Southern Pacific 2:
Kipper, 2 S-S, and so on throughout the
list as shown elsewhere.
Beet Sugar came back with the cov
ering movement to 2 points net loss.
Wool preferred was 7-8 off, and corn
products 7-8.
But the greatest break was in Stand
ard Oil of Kansas. It has been doing
well of late, but to-day It broke 35
points, no mistake. It rallied a little
not mucn.
Men who have followed Wall Street
for twenty-five years, at least one who
has followed It for forty years, were
unable to diagnose the situation.
fsually such action as that of Wednes
day presages a smashing break. Wheth
er it will break, or continue advancing
is a matter for the future to decide.
Whether the shorts are out of the
woods or wandering around fearful of
to-day's action, is also a point to con
sider in presaging to-day's market.
Jt may be that there will be another
forward movement to-day.
But 'if there is the Impetus will lack
the action or jesterday, for the simple
reason that the short interest must have
been greatly reduced.
The public Is not in the stock market
to any Important extent. It apparently
would have been the part of wisdom
for the financial Interests that are carry
ing the bag to let the bottom out of it
to encourage the bears to set the pace,
so they set It themselves.
Money was easier, and the big In
terests bought stocks right and left, pcr-
naps selling a few hundred thousand
shares as alues as ncared the top.
The pace was given the start from
London. Probably via New Tork. and
then back from London.
It was indeed a wild day. a big day,
1,034.000 shares. Money cltfsed at 4 3-4.
The stock market table will tell the
rest of the story of the day.
Over in Alexandria yesterday at noon,
a few financiers took a $30000.000 cor
poration up the back stairs t'o the office
of Gardner Boothe, and In a Jiffy made
it a corporation with 3150,000,000 capitali
zation, of which J100.000.0no is to be 5 per
cent collateral 5 per cent bonds.
While this gigantic fiscal operation
was under way. Alexandria moved on in
its wonted quiet, through a sleepy noon
hour, knowing not Its greatness.
One would not have thought weighty
. financial matters were being settled the
back stairs looked more like the prover
bial CO cents than $15,000,000.
The Maryland-Virginia Railway Com
pany will, on the approval of the amend
ment to its charter by the Virginia Com
mission, go out of business. Its securi
ties will repose with Treasurer Spald
and be transferred in due -time to the
Washington Utilities, unless some rude
injunction changes the plan an unlikely
event
It is reported on the street that the
various bright Judicial lights of the Dis
trict and the Department of Justice have
decided to wait and find out Just what's
doing before getting busy" with their
interference.
The meeting In Mr. Boothe's office did
not crowd the seating capacity, and
the president ofthe Maryland-Virginia
did not consider it necessary to attend.
Passengers nuking the trip via the
Washington-Virginia to Arlington for
the first time in weeks noticed the big
ppwernouse or tne company quiet and
silent theJ'Julee" for propulsion com
ing from the Potomac Electric Light
and Power Company, on this side of the
iotomae.
C. P. King, president of the Washing
ton Railway and Electric Company was
present at the meeting and saw that all
was -well done.
sober-faced and silent Just why the
Quaker seance, no one seemed to know.
With a general laugh It was followed
by adjournment on the drop of the gavel
when the conversation ended.
Washington financial Interests are
speculating on the outlook for local se
curities. The voicing of the opinion that
there, would be no drastic Conarreaalonal
action regarding public utilities' was
(juiie general.
The bankers of the city, while by no
means a unit for the successful candi
date, accept the result good naturedly
and have the kindest words for Presi
dent-elect Wilson. ,
They do not look for drastic action:
nothing that would disturb the pros
perity and serenity of the country, as
such action might be depended upon to
react on the party, now entering on a
new career.
If these bankers are prophets, then
the Capital has nothing to fear.. '
They do not think that Mr. Wilson
wKl stand for any seven-year tenure of
office. -
The one thing that stands to the front
In the comment anent the "financing
plan" of the Washington Railway and
Electric Comnanv la the fact that the
District of Columbia needs and should
have at the earliest possible moment a
utilities commission.
Men should be apoolnted to this com
mission who are familiar with the rert.

men who know the city well and Its
needs and the wants of Us people.

purpose of representing the people

citizens and stockholders have rights and
that the rights of each should be con-

Some of the prominent members of the
Stock Exchange are decidedly strong

They realize that the discussion and

years capital Is a little nervous over

The Grangers are being bought on In
side reports of very large earnings for
Great Northern. Northern Pacific, and a
better showing this month for St. Paul.
"We believe that the strong funda
mental conditions of the country will
govern as soon as temporary excitement
and uncertainty are past." says a very
conservative Institution that has lately
been very accurate on market moves.
Investment buying Is expected to In
crease materially during the next sixty
usys.
Large financial Interests believed Wll
son would win and they prepared their
affairs for such a result, according to
a oanaing auinonty or nigh standing.
The American Tobacco Company de
clared Jts regular quarterly dividend of
2 per cent on common stock, payable
December 2, to holders of record Novexn-

Europe was the only buyer at tha open

Most ot the selling Is coming from the
Bull Ifoosers.
United States Steel will Issue its Octo
ber unfilled steel tonnage figures at 1125
a. m. Saturday. The general belief Is
that October established a new high
record In excess orders.
Even at these prices It Is surprising how

testants Wllo Induce Others to ' " -:
Enter the Race.
Contestants In The Washington Her
ald's CS.000 competition should not over
look the special voting offer which The
Advocate has made, and which will last
until the dose of the contest next Feb
ruary.
The Advocate offers a reward of x,n
votes to contestants' for every reader of
The Herald whom they Indue ta enter
the race. The votes will be given to the
contestant by The Advocate as soon as
the' new contestant has secured LOOO votes
In addition to the J.0OO given him upon
entering, or. In other words, ss soon aa
the new contestant has 2.000 votes to his
credit. This provision Is made so as to
prevent the list of contestants from be
coming clogged with Inactive persons.
The 5.000 race is a Mve one, and every
precaution is being taken against laggers
entering it.
But few contestants so far have real
ised the great Importance of this
astounding offer. It forms a third means
of securing votes. The first way Is to
patronize retail merchants advertising In
connection with the competition, and the
second Is to purchase manufactured prod
ucts advertised In connection with the
contest. The retail merchants give votes
at the rate of one for each S cents In
purchase. The labels, wrappers, and
trade-marks from the manufactured prod
ucts are redeemed by The Advocate at
the rate of one vote for each cent in
purchase.
The Advocate's voting offer presents
an additional source of votes. The se
curing of one new contestant Is equiv
alent to purchasing ISO worth of goods
at the establishment of .a retail merchant-
Did you ever look at It in that
light before? The securing of one new
contestant Is equivalent to purchasing
110 worth of manufactured products.
Did that ever occur to you before? The
statement of these facts should be suf
ficient to Induce every contestant to be
gin an individual campaign for new en
trants. It Is. an easy matter to get per
sons to enter the contest. One trip fa
the contest headquarters at ui Thir- n
iccnui street nonnwesc, is susacMnx in? .
convince them that the competition- Is
a most unusual one and Is wen 1 worth
entering. '
apBtasaeats OI Melltaaal.
xnis new metnoa 01 oDiaining votes is -.:
not Intended to supersede the other two
methods. It Is supposed to supplement.
them. The contestant who slackens his '
activity In securing votes from purr ruses --?
for the purpose of concentrating energy 'W
upon getting new contestants will aooa-
er or later come to grief. The wise 1
,n
testant will resort to all three methoda,
letting no opportunity escape hlm.
Some merchants may think on XXtst
view that The Advocate's otter works, aa
Inquiry upon the merchants sdverttaVac
in the competition. Such It not tha
however. The addition of a new con
testant means an Increase In the patron
age of the various merchants and manu-
racturers. These new patrons wm mean
much to the contest advertisers.
Names of new contestants should ba
sent to The Advocate's office, together
with the name of the persons securing
them. The Advocate la always glad to
discuss any details of the offer which
may be vague In the minds of contest
ants. He Is at the contest home dally,
except Sunday, from S o'clock ta tha
morning until o'clock at .night.
The public snould remember that
changes are constantly being made In
the awards on display on the second
and third floors of the building. Severat
additions have already been made.
These articles are well worth examining
closely. Their beauty Is ravishing
They Inspire contestants to more seal
ous work. The articles are changed from
time to time in order that the publio
may be given a chance to view all of
the awards before the end of contest
It Is Impossible to display all of the 850
awards at the same time.
