YVe have had a surprisingly active ses
aion, but at the expense of values.
There was quite an accumulation of
selling orders on -he stock exchange, and
ncreased in Tolurue to such in extent
that before the end of the first hour some
levere losses were recorded.
This was followed by some short cov
ering and little rallies, which has been
an incident in the trading each day re
cently.
Compared with former prices, stocks
look cheap, but that is all that can be
•aid in their favor at this time.
To maintain values requires an active
state of business,- and we have nothing
on it.
There is a gradual shrinkage going on.
Prices of conmodities lack stability
and coming corporate statements will
soon begin to reflect diminishing profits.
Under such circumstances we are not j
Justified in looking for advances.

Stock Market Review
XFW YORK, Nov. o.—The New York
Sun's financial review today said: *
“Absence of support characterized most !
of the markets in Y\ T all Street today.
There was heavy selling in the short
session of the stock market from the
opening.
“In the first hour stocks were freely
offered at broad concessions, the bears
continuing their hammering tactics of
yesterday and with not less success.
•‘Foreign exchange, cotton, grain and
so on were In much the same condition
and each served further to dampen the
other. Most of these was -In the in- ;
dnstrial discretions.
“The pace was ind<?ed a fast one and j
by the end of the tint half of the ses- j
sion there were evidences of stiffening. |
doubtless aid in a large measure by the j
resistence of the railroad shares to pres- |
sure. ,"N- j
“Trading was on a large scale for a ;
Saturday market.
“There was a most disheartening tone ,
to the foreign exchanges.
“In some cases there were fair re- i
coverles in the second hour, although the ■
list as a whole retraced lost ground
haltingly."

There was a decline of 10 to 25 cenia
in prices on the iobal live stock exchange
at the opening of the market today, and
those pri'bes were maintained during the
entire short period. All, or practically
ail of the 8,500 hogs on the market were
sold before the close of the early fore
noon hours.
Trading was active with all the local
packers in the game {is well aa the
eastern shippers.
Receipts were considered fairly large
for the closing day of the market, and
there would probably have been a large
hold-over had it not been for the good
demand at the lower figures.
There was a top of $14.60 on good
heavy hogs, but the bulk of the heavy
hogs brought around sl4 50.
There was a considerable number of
good heavies among the receipts, and. In
fact, practically all of the hogs on the
market were fair.
Good lights, mixed and mediums gen
erally brought $14.25® 14.35, but there
were -a few good lights that brought
$14.50, but that number was very small.
Good roughs brought $13.50 and down,
but the bulk of the best roughs brought
around $18.25.
Good pigs generally brought around
$14.25, but there was cne lot of extra
good pigs that brought $14.50.
The bulk of sales for the day ran
close to 814.25(@14.36.
Trading was slow in the cattle mar
ket. with all of the local packers in
the market, but making lower bids.
Most of the commission men indicated
that they would not sell at the lower
bide, but that they would hold their
cattle over until the Monday market.
There was an opinion among some of
the local packers that they could buy
on lower bids, due to the number of
stale cattle that was on the market to
day, and to the prospects of large re
ceipts on the Monday market.
Brices were generally lower, but, as
was atated above, there were but few
sales at the lower bid*.
Receipts for the day approximated
around 600 fresh cattle, while there were
fuliy 200 cattle left over from the Fri
day market.
There n an active trend to the trad
ing In the calf market, but prices wer
generally 25 cents lower, due, commi*
sion men stated to the fact that this
market had been a little out of line with
the other markets.
There was an extreme top of $17..T0 to
day, but the number of sales on that
basis waa“ small, and the actual top of
the market was sl7.
The decline of around 50 cent* hit
practically every grade of oalYcs
There were approximately 500 calves on
the market.
YVlth around 000 receipts In ahep anil
lambs, sheep prices were about steady at
$4.50®5. Lambs were fully 50 cents
lower, at Sfi'frll.

GRAIN PRICES
BREAK SHARPLY
1 —
General Commission House
Selling Starts Slump.
*
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.—Grain prices broke
sharply in trading on the Chicago Board
of Trade today.
There was much liquidation and little
buying power was in evidence.
General commission house selling
started the drop.
Provisions showed an easier tendency.
December wheat opened off 2%c at
$1.96 and dropped six additional. March
wheat was off ic at the opening $1.92. and
lost an additional 4%c.
December corn opened off %c at 82%e
and closed down another l%c. May
corn off %e at the opening 87%e, closed
off l%e additional.
December oats, after opening off %c at
53%c, lost another %c. May oats was
off %c at the opening 58%c and lost %*
additional at the close.
(By Thomson A McKinnon.) ,
—Nov. 6 •
Wheat—The trade is becoming im
pressed with the destroyed buying
power as shown In weak and declining
foreisn exchange. Asa result, liquids
Hon has appeared. Market has suffered
from lack of new demand, only a Small
export business In gulf wheat reported,
and that was done 2c lower. Cash wheat
has been weak everywhere, with prepa
rations for delivery on De<-ember going
on in gome markets. Great Britain buy
ing Australian and Indian wheat at less
than United states price. Germany not
likely to be in market much, because
of financial condition. Buying power
from abroad will remain slow and un
reasonable to believe that we will turn
to investment side in the face of fact
that nil commodities are declining. Noth
ing to change downward trend
Corn Less weakness in com than in
wheat, because of the fayt that it has
declined more from war time level than
wheat. Rains aye reported over West,
delaying picking new crop and the move
■ tuent to terminals. In view of financial
mid economic conditions now prevailing,
it is hardly possible that broad demand
will appear.
Data-Northwestern Interests have been
sellers and there has been some scat
tered liquidation. It is not posalble to
discover reason to suggest any perma
nency.
Provisions—Situation in hogs utr
changed; slow foreign and domestic de
mand.

Terse Market Notes
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.—Cotton is now
geitlng close to its former level, having
lost nearly all of the splendid gain that
vras made during the previous reaction.
There are no new factors in cotton.
It is still a case of slow business with
the manufacturers and" merchants pur
chasing the ' band to mouth policy."
This means liquidation, small stocks
and ultimately a situation that will re
sult In competitive buying, for it' be
far fetched to act on the theory that
the present depression is to be perma
nent.
YY e are. therefore, inclined to a more
friendly attitude towards the market and
during the next few days sufficient re
sistance may develop to encourage mod
erate buying.
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.—Generally fair
weather prevailed yesterday in the
Southern half of the country. The out
look Is for continued fair weather with
out material change in temperatures to
day and tomorrow in the states east of
the Mississippi, but will continue unset
tled tomorrow In the Mississippi valley
and the upper takes region.
NEYV YORK. Nov. 6.—According to
statements made here in official circles,
the Burlington plan for the capitalist!
Mon of surplus funds involves Issuance of
$6.CW0.000 in stocks and $80,000,000 in
bonds to be distributed as dividends.
NEYY' YORK, Nov. 6.—According to re
port* received here this morning the
"Illy* Overland plant at Toledo ciose*
today for indefinite lime for Inventory,
according to statements said to have
been made by officials
CHICAGO, Nov. 6.—Export trade is
the only support under wheat and this
demand is rendered uncertain by the
njirfccf {or*fore)gW exchange. Flour mills
are receiving cancellation* of previou*
purchases instead of beiug able to make
new tales.

Slayer of New York
Man Still at Large
NEW YORK, Nov. 6.—The slayer of
Leeds V. Waters, wealthy club man and
globe trotter, was believed today to be
concealed in one of the crook haunts In
New York, where fugitives may re-main
an security for months.
The police who had held hope of a
quick arrest, hinting that' the murderer
had been identified, admit they have had
no trace of him since he dodged three
clerks and ran down eight flights of
stairs in an obscure hotel, leaving in one
of the rooms the nude body of Waters,
beaten to death. The only clew was a
suit of underwear left behind by the
murderer.
FILM ‘SLANGUAGE’
ALARMS ENGLAND
Some Screen Importations
Mean Little to British.
LONDON, Nov. 6.—Hark to the charge
of the purists of this joint language of
ours.
Here in the midst of this land of a
slang that is prolific but lacks the imag
inative touch of the Yankee efforts, there
has nrisen a hue and cry against
“slanguage" in the films.
“Slanguage" in the films, says YY’il.
Ham J. Locke, blocks the way of the
union of the English-speaking peoples.
It's the same William J. Locke who
writes good books, humorously good
books, at times. He left his sense of
humor at home, however, and now comes
out in Landmark, the organ of the Eng
lish speaking union, with this:
“Nothing tends more to defeat the ob
ject of the union in this country than
the super-Americanism of the iangnagt
of the American film?.
"Here is a cause of international fric
tion which, with "some little trouble,
might possibly lie removed. '
DESTROYS VALUE
OF EDUCATION .
“The national life or America is being
explained to England by means of the
Aim. But the educative value of that ex
planation la 1n many cases destroyed by
the semJ-lnteHlgible language In which
the written part of the play is couched.”
There hasn’t—been such a delving
among Americans for Americanism since
the doughboys arrived and fables In
Yankee slang were a popular feature in
London’s newspapers. YVitb a wise air
and a twinkle In the eye the reporters
of Fleet street haTe aided and abetted
Mr. Locke by digging up some horrible
example*.
It is hopeless, says one newspaper, for
a film caption writer to sling suddenly on
thp screen, “Lamp the peach." although
the newspaper professes knowledge that
this, translated, means “Look at this
pretty girl."
Txxx xxxxxxx, avers another paper,
are cold to the fate of a Nebraska gen
tleman “who overplayed his hand and
waltzed off to the bone orchard.”
“Apparently,” read the glossary of the
daily prints, “this vivid phrase means
that the person In question was highly
imprudent, and us a consequence lost
hi* life."
<>r again:
"WEDDING DAY
UNLUCKY ONE.”
"The dour north grows a little dourer
when it is expected to digest such in
foramtion as this: 'lt was the kid's
Jonah day when be was hitched,’ which
mean* that the young man's welding
day was 'an unlucky one."
If a plain ordinary “journalist"— to
tme the English word—may so tar for
get himself as to express an opinion, it's
thl*:
If the Yankee films were not in words
and action more broadly and farcically
Y’enkoe than any Yankee ever was In
real life, some millions of “cinema goers”
in Briton would be ro.mdiy disappointed.
Lock# may have some grounds for his
kick, after ail, for the printed conversa
tional portion of films exported to Great
Britain has the appearafice of bavlug
been "doctored.” The slanguage" I*, ap
parently, spread on with a trowel for
British consumption.
Drives Nails in Head;
Man Fully Recovers
PARIS. Nov. 6.—At a recent meeting of
j the French Academy of Medicine, Pro
fessor Reynes of Marseilles, recounted
i how he was once called In to attend to a
madman, who, during a few hours' lib
erty, had driven three two-inch nails
! into bis head, piercing the brain.
The fellow did not appear to be in
pain and did not show toe slightest In
terest when M. Ueyne* removed the nails.
The man was haunted vyth thoughts
of suicide and he whs even more de
pressed when he realized the nails did
, not kill him.
Kept under close observation, he was
cured of his self-inflicted injuries and
died many years later of a natural fever
ish disease.

Fjnds New Way to
Extract Turpentine
VANCOUVER. B. C., Not. 5.—E. 8.
Oliver of Balfour. B. C„ an industrial
chemist and specialist <r. T??d products,
claims to have dtacov.-red a ne\ T process
for extragting turpentine from '.he resin
of fir trees. He has obtained Lirge resin
leases rtora the provinrirl government
nod expects to convert the vast fir for
est? of British Columbia into anew
source of turpentine supply. Ilia method
consists in boring a small hole in the
trees, inserting a tap channel and sell
ing the opening hermetically with an
air-tight vacuum flask into which the
resin oozes.
Mr. Oliver says resin is a survival of
the glacial epoch. It will not freoa* or
expand under cold and in the ago of
Ice, he declares, trees used it as a kind
of natural underwear to protect them
selves. In these days of warmer tem
peratures, he say*, trees throw off realn
for the same reason that a maa lays
aside his winter garment*.
The resin Mr. Oliver will gather win be
used to make turpentine, medical oils
and resins used In varnishes, litho
graphic ink and colors for dye*. Hls
leases lie along the Grand Trunk Pacific
Railway, and he plans to sublease areas
to settler* on a royalty basis. He de
clares that every fir tree in Brlt *h
Columbia, no matter how small, will h#
made to yield a profit. The provincial
government will collect a %-eent royalty
on all resin collected.
Mr. Oliver has spent eighteen year* in
the study of chemical products from
resin* and has visited the forests of the
United States, Europe. Mexico and Cen
tral America.
