The Mechanism of Stock Exchange Transactions How an Order to Buy or Sell on a Great Specu? lative Market Is Executed With Marvelous Speed and Precision The market is feverishly activo. A thousand miles away, in a Chi? ca?) branch of a Stock Exchange bro? kerage firm, John Smith, owner of 100 shares of Steel common, is pacing up ?nd down. Occasionally he darts nerv? io Iv to the ticker, The tape spells out ?>X iOT " hut Smith thinks he detects storm 'signals and wants to get out. Sneed Is essential- if his judgment is rieht a moment lost may be very costly. He"teli8 his broker to "sell at the mar "lie steps over to the ticker again. For t'-e moment it is the only thing in the room he can see. lie watches 'he fluctuations * th intense exene ntent In forty-five seconds he is tapped ,n the sh.ti der. The broker is buck ;?th a slip- saying: "Sold, 100 Steel ?t 1067*.-' Mr. Smith's name and the broker's also appear on the memo-, randum. , . Swiftness is es ential where specu? lators are operating for the turn. An ord'r from San Francisco was once executed in New York and reported back to 'Frisco in a minute. Few realise the degree of organita uon and coordination tha? is re-, quired to effect such quick execution. Tracing through the various step taken in transmitting the order from Chi? cago to New York reveals something of the complexity of t:;o system. Just Htm It Was Done After -?he Chicago broker received the order he took it to the telegraph operator in his branch, who dispatched it over a speciai wire to the New Y'ork office. Thi rece ving operator recorded it on a "sell" slip and handed it over to an order clerk. Tne latter carried it to the telep lone clerk, who tran mit ted it over a direct-wire to another :e?ephone clerk engaged by the firm on the floor of the mock Exchange, who recorded it a.so on a "sell" s-ip. If the order were to buy he would have recorded it on a form for "buy" orders. He then pressed the annunciator but? ton, and the number or t: e floor part Cottons Buyer= in this field are projecting ' their thought to the probable attitude of retail buy ts months hence., This h :rue particularly among the jobbers of <iry jroeds 1'rom other cities who are now in this market in quo; * of fabrics ;n the f:icc of high pries asked by the ?nil! 8fret.t? and other distributors, they argue that the new ca'e when trans? lated ater in the year into retail prices ?>vil! tc more t' an the trafile can hear, and will there'ore greatly curtail con? sumption.

MtUtf vwi fi Uo w??k w?t? nor of the firm appeared on either side ot the exchange to notify him he was wanted at his telephone booth. The broker proceeded to Post 1, where Steel is traded in. (There are twenty different posts.) He offered the hundred shares at the prevailing price and a sale was promptly made. The broker made a report showing the price of the sale and the name of the broker who purchased the stock, and sent this with a page to his telephone clerk on the floor. The latter immediately telephoned it back to the office. The telephone clerk at the office made a written report of the transaction, which was recorded again by an order clerk in New York and dispatched over the Chicago wire. The receiving telegrapher made a memorandum, which was passed to the broker, whq immediately gave it to the waiting customer. A full state? ment giving the price of the sa'e and the nnme of the purchasing broker was then mailed to the customer. High speed can only be made when .'ill the avenues of communication are clear. If the broker on the floor was busy at another post his e'erk would have sent the order through a tube to a specialist, whose business it is t> dea! perhaps exclusively in Steel. If *Jie ortler were for less than 100 shares the clerk would have trans? mitted it directly to an odd-lot broker. On the other hand, if the broker was off the floor it wou'd be immediately turned over to a floor broker. In Times of '"ongestion In times of congestion execution of orders is much slower. Back in No? vember, on the day of the big smash, the tcker ran forty-ore minutes be? hind the market and greatly confused customers and brokers. Some brokers contend that there are too few on the rlnor of the exchange, and nearly all gree that were it not for the spe? cialists it would be impossible to carry out transactions o.c from 1 000, 000 to 2,000,000 sheres in a day with any degree of smoothness.

GougedTenants To Get Revenge By Income Tax 1919 Forms Have Place for Amount of Rent and to Whom Paid, is Statement j by Commissioner Roper U. S. to Catch Profiteers Department of Justice Will Use This Information toj Bring Landlords to Time WASHINGTON, Jan. 18. ~ Through I the collection of taxes on 1919 incomes, the first stop In which will be taken to-morrow, the government will wage war on profiteering landlords with "sweet revenge" in prospect for "the I tenant who has had to dig deep into his earnings to pay a high rental in 1919." First intimation of this plan came i to-night in an announcement by Dan;el 0. Roper, Commissioner of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, that forms for j making income tax returns, which will j be in the hands of all internal revenue collectors and ready for distribution to-morrow, will contain a section pro? viding that tenants shall include in their statements the amounts of rents paid and to whom it was paid. Thit information will be turned over to the ! Pepartmcnt of Justice to be used in I its high cost of living campaign. Tenant Holds Whip "The tenants are doing the driving and holding the whip," Mr. Roper said. 'Profiteer landlords will bb held to the straight and narrow path in the pay- I ment of their income taxes. Revenge : is sweet to the tenant who lias had-to d.g deep into his earnings to pay a nigh rental in 1919. Gathering his family around him, he takes his cratchy pen in hand, and with the last drop of ink in tho bottle informs the Commissioner of Internal Revenue that ne, Bill Brown, of the Hallroom Apart? ments, paid to John Smit . 13 Profiteer Avenue, $1,200 for his three-room flat in Ivlj. i "By gathering these reports from all of the Bill Browns who are running themselves ragged to pay their rents, , the Internal Revenue Bureau will have ??11 of the information needed to see .hat the profiteer John Smiths pay proper tuxes or face prosecution." While the work of collecting the in? come taxes will be just ua heavy this year as it was in 1919, the government will receive less revenue. Instead of collecting ?3 per cent on incomes be ween $2,000 and $4,000 from married persons, as was done last year, only ?1 per cent will be collected this time. ? ingle persons will get an exemption of $1.000, as was provided under the previous revenue law. On incomes ..hove $4,000 the normal tax will be (s per cent instead of 12 per cent, as tist year. But the surtax begins oper? ation at $4 000 and continues upward ntil the government will assess 00 per cent, of annual incomes above $1,000,000. To Enforce Law Strictly Internal revenue officials will send income tax forms to all persons who paid taxes hist year. Others who nre taxable must apply to the collectors for t1 em. Mr. Roner warned that there would he ''.n -wervingenforcementof the revenue laws and that "punishment will bo meted o"t and pennlties appli"d without fear or favor" this, year, since -.11 persons s ould be familiar with the law by this time. The Commissioner said ho would not '\ppca! to the public to pay taxes on grounds of patriotism, except in so far :?? tax payment constitutes n duty to the nation. Returns on at least one-fourth of the amount due must be in the hands of internal revenue collectors by March 15. Archbishop Hayes Refuses to Attend "Dry" Conference Catholic Church Stands for Law Observance and Docs Not Need to Emphasize Prohibition, He*Declarer Archbishop Hayes declined yesterday: an invitation to attend a meeting of the clergy of New York and_ vicinity for the purpose of discussing prohibi? tion. This .meeting will be held this morning in the auditorium of the Metropolitan Life Building. The invi? tation was extended by William II. Anderson, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon League of New York. In a letter sent yesterday to Mr. An? derson Archbishop Hayes said: "I cannot see my way clear to r.ccept your' invitation. Permit me to as? sure you that the Catholic Church awaits no such occasion to lay stress on the plain duty of obeying the law of the land. Obedience to au? thority in church and slate is the very breath of Catholic discipline. "It is extraordinary that tho Federal prohibition amendment should be sin? gled out for particular attention above other slatutes equally binding." John F. Kramer. Federal Prohibition Commissioner, wiil be the principal speaker at the meeting of ministers this morning. Other speakers will bo Charles R. ,0'Conner, Prohibition Di? rector for the S ta to of New York; Rabbi Stephen S. Wise nnd Wayne B. Wheeler.

The dead are: Mrs. Emma Forest, Mrs. Herbert Forest, Leonard Fore-t, twelve; Lena Forest, nine, and Miilie Forest, three.

This evening he was brought to the Williamsport Hospital. He may recover. m Dairy League Calls State Milk Control Akin to Bolshevism Fair Price Board's Proposal. "Which Will Make L?nine Gray With Envy," Is De? clared To Be Autocratic Opposition to the creation of a state commission to control the milk in? dustry "from the cow to the consumer," as proposed by the Fair Price Milk Committee, of which Dr. Royal S. Cope land, the Health Commisioner, is chairman, is increasing rapidly, ac? cording to officers of the Dairymen's League. John ?. Miller, vice-president of the league, in a statement issued yester? day, suid: "This ambitious program differs from the Bolshevist program in Russia only that in Russia ull properly is to be nationalized, while here only farms and herds arc to be nationalized. In principle they differ not at all, only in degree. To deprive a farmer of the power and control of his property strips him of every attribute of owner? ship save only the privilege of paying taxes. "The question naturally suggests it? self wny, if the state is to fix prices of food, should it not also lix prices of all other necessities. We assume that the committee will admit that medicine and medical attendance are necessities. If the price of milk is :o be fixed by the state why should not the fees of the physician who prescr bed the amount of milk in a diet a'so he fixed by the state'.'" "This committee pr?poses to give a mi!k commission of three political ap? pointees power ai.tl Contiol over .$'J,00i) - 000.000 worth of property owned by other men, with the power to lix prices on' tie products of such properties. This in effect is fixing the prices upon the properties also, Tor the value of a farm is measured bv the value of its products. The owners of these fa tins. however nre to lave no vo:ce in fixing such prices or in naming the men who are to fix them. "As political propaganda the report may satisfy its authors, but as a solu? tion of an indu trial and economic problem it is hopeless. "The milk commission is to have power also to make orders ttntl ruies, vio'nfif.n of w' c sha ' be ; i . demeanor, punishable by a fine of $500, or a year in prison, or both. This means that the Legislature will he asked to delegate to three political appointees of the Governor the power to enact criminal taws. This propos!:1 will make L?nine grow gray with envy. "No government, except an auto cra'ic one. can ??'< 'cute uch n ? ?., rs and the more such powers are con? ferred upon government the more auto? cratic it wiil be. "The whole plan is designed to sub? stitute n government by bureaus for a government of legislatures a govern? ment by autocratic rules for a govern? ment of law. "To compel t'^e farmer to se'l hi? 'roduct in a regulated market and buy tl! of his supplies and necessities in ?in unregu'ated market not only vio? lates every principle of justice but vvould result in intolerable confusion nd chaos that would at once be re? flected in an appalling decrease in pro luction. "There is no reason why milk should Se sing'ed out for state regulation at present pries. It is cheaper than beef. mutton, poultry, eggs or any other 'orm of animal fat food. It has ad? vanced in price les- thin other foods, and less than c'othing or shoes. The nrice of milk to farmers is less., as rompared with costs of production, han the price of any other commodity. "It is difficult to understand why a committee of such high intelligence hould make a report that can only add to the contusion and uncertainty al? ready existing by recommending l?gis? lation that if enacted and held to be valid would drive the dairy farmers of the state out of business." Influenza Prostrates Five Entire Family Found Too 111 to Leave Their Beds Nicolo Cenquegrana, his wife Ange? lina and their three children. Fran? cesco, Michael and Benedetto, were found ill in their home, at 142 Baxter Street, yesterday. All five, physicians say, are suffering from influenza. Th-eir plight wras discovered when a brother of Nicolo called at tho hou^e and found the entire family so ill that they were unable to leave their beds. He notified the police, and tho Cenque granas were taken to Bcllevue Hospital. Dr. Royal S. Copcland, Health Tom missioner, said last night that the in? crease of influenza cases in the city during tho last week was no cause tor alarm. The city's death rate from in? fluenza and pneumonia is at present lower than in any other community in the country. Dr. Copeland said thai he did not believe there was any im? mediate dangor of an epidemic, and did not think it necessary for the public ?> t;ikf more than the u uni nrecau tiona against contracting the di ease.

Copley Will Lead Fight to Rescind Excess Profit Tax Bill to Repeal Measure Is Before Congress With As? surance of the Majority That It Will Be Enacted New York Tribune Washington H treau WASHINGTON*, Jan. 18? Repeal of the tax on business, known as the ex? cess profits tax, ?3 to be authorized by the present Congress, but probably no; until after election, members of th Ways and Means Committee of the ilouse asserted to-day. The Republi? can majority in t ongress intends to withdraw this vrnr emergency burden as soon as deemed expedient, but poli? tics as well as national finances is entering into the decision as to when. As an indication of what is coming Chairman Fordney of the House Ways and Means Committee has introduced a bill to repeal the excess profits tax, and Representativo Copley, of Illinois, is preparing to lead a i-irht for its revoca? tion on the ground that it is a con? sumption tax in reality and as such is directly responsible for the high cost of living. Three reasons for the proposed re? peal are emphasized b;. Representa? tive Copley: First, is it ultimately a consumption tax, all the heavier be? cause imposed indirectly, and has in? creased the cost of living about $05 per capita; second, it destroys initia? tive and. opportunity for the young man of little or no capital; third, lv allows a big concern to dump 08. 5 per cent of its income that Uncle Sam would otherwise levy upon into driv? ing small concerns out of competitive business. The reasons for delaying action for repeal of the excess profits tax which seems to be influencing the majority of the Ways and Means .Committee and Congress generally are pointed out by Representative Green, of Iowa, the ranking Republican member. "I am not in favor of the repeal of the excess profits tax," he said, "unless some different proposition than any? thing so far advanced is presented to take its place. Any one who knows the condition of our public finances under? stands that we are liable to have a bond issue in ar.v event, and would be ?are to have it if the excess profits tax is repealed without any ?quivalent being established " Two plans have been presented as substitutes for the excess profits tax. One is to increase the tax on the lower and intermediato incomes, and tho other calls for a flat tax on corporate incomes. Upper State Suffers Most Severe Blizzard in Years SYRACUSE, N. Y., Jan. 18.-- The severest blizzard in years has prevailed in central and northern New ": ork dur? ing the laut forty-eight hours, demor aluing railway and trolley traffic, blocking country roads with huge drifts and causing much suffering. To? night the storm showed no indication o? abatement Influenza Gains Fast in Chicago; l,200NewCases Thirteen Deaths Reported in City Since Saturday: Army of 625 Volunteer Nurses Takes Field To-day 38 Dead From Pneumonia Health Department to Con? duct Canvass and Give Aid Where It Is Needed Special Correspondence CHICAGO, Jan. 18.?With the spread of influenza still unchecked, an army of 625 volunteer r.urses will take the field to-morrow morning in an effort to com? bat the disease. Since 9 o'clock Saturday morning 1 200 additional cases <&influer.?? wore reported to the Department of Health. In the same period thirteen more deaths were reported. Thirty-eight deaths were renorten from pneumonia. Approximately 1.500 cases of influen?a have been reported. Operating from the eight municipal tuberculosis dispensaries as headquar? ters, fifty-four graduate nurses of the sanitarium are to supervise the can? vassing of their respective districts. Every "caac of influenze reported to the Health Department will be personally visited by some member of the nurses' corps. Each graduate nurse will have a staff of eight assistants. These official vis? itors will inquire into the conditions surrounding each case and submit a written report to their district super? visors. In cases of extreme poverty, where food and fuel are neetied. conditions will be reported to charitable societies. and medical or professional advice will be supplied by the Health Department. A cull for volunteer? was issued by Health Commissioner Robertson this morning at a mass meeting of 1,500 I rraduates of the Municipal Training School, an organization formed to pro? vide intelligent relief in such emer gencies as the present epidemic. There were 571 women who offered their services gratuitously. An or ? ani;??. ? n of forces was effected at a luncheon at noon, attended by Dr. Rob? ertson, his staff and the fifty-four dis? trict nurses. These nurses were ?? charged with the task of arranging a local headquarters in their districts and notifying each of their lieutenants where to report.
