NEW YORK, June 30. Trading In
stocks today occasionally was remi
niscent of the dullness and hesitation
which in pre-war times marked the
advent of the new fiscal year and its
attendant uncertainty.
Despite last week's better bank state
ment, call money opened at 6 to 6V2
per cent, rising later to 8 for mixed
loans and 10 for all industrials, indi
cating increased discrimination against
the latter form o f collateral.
The new order created by the Ver
sailles treaty found no very clear re
flection in the course of quoted values,
aside from the sustained strength of
shares which have assumed a fixed
place amonj so-called peace indus
trials. Transportations shared only mode
rately in the day's movements except
ing Texas and Pacific. Rubber issues
related to the motor division extended
last Saturday's gains. Motors were
relatively backward. Food shares came
next i speculative favor.
Baldwin and American Locomotive,
Central" Foundry, common nnd pre
ferred, Central Leather, Hide and
Leather preferred, American Woolen,
American Express and International
I Paper were conspicuous among the
'ER BUCK!
other strong stocks, sales 1,125,000
shares.
Bonds including Liberty and inter
national issues, were inclined to ease
fractionally. Total sales, par value,
$10,800,000.
Old United States bonds were un
changed on call.

to live together in the same cage. The
unusual sight was always well adver

a big draw. Presently, however, there
came a time when the attraction ceased

He stoutly maintained his innocence.
Despite the efforts of his counsel to
keep him quiet, the prisoner con
stantly interrupted while the prosecu

"How much did you say there was
in the bag?" the prosecutor asked.
"I am not quite sure, but I should
say over $20." was the reply.
"That's another lie," blurted out the
prisoner; "there wasn't $15."
And he was surprised when the ver

President Wilson is fond of telling
a story about an old teamster. This
old fellow said to the treasurer of the
concern one day:
"Me and that off horse has been
workin' for the company 17 years, sir. '
"Just so, Winterbottom, just so."

I hope?" ;
The old teamster looked dubious. :
"Well." he said, "we wus both tooken 1
down sick last month and they got a
doctor for the hos, while they docked
my pay."
Senator William M. Calder at the
dinner of the Men's Union of the Central-
Congregation church, told this
story:
"A congressman from the south had
prepared what he considered was an
epoch-making address and was on
tender hooks to deliver it. He appeared
to be niore interested in his speech
than he was in his bill. ' His bill, how
ever, was a good one, and Speaker
Cannon was trying to help the bill
along. There were only a few mo
ments left in which to do business anil
the man with the speech finally got
Uncle Joe riled.
"'if the gentleman will just wait b
few moments till I pass his bill.' said
the speaker, "he can then make his
speech'."
