formidable competition impending in the

very large transactions. Manhattan, an
older standing resource of the bears re-
sisted attack and rose with the general
market
When these isolated cases of weakness
were overcome the whole list moved up

movement was in full iorce. The late
uneasiness over the future of the money
market has completely disappeared.
The most conspicuous movement today.
was in lower grade stocks with dividend
prospects. and the Pacifics were clearly
the leaders They were advanced in Lon

york market took UP the advance where
London left off.
There was also very conspicuous move
ments in the Industrials. these stocks
showing advances at one time of from
two to over five points. There were no
reactions OF any Importance during the
day and the close was firm and near the
top prices.
The confidence in the money outlook
was rejected in the bond market. United

/, to War Taxes.

They've put Il stamp upon our cheehs'
As we'll as on our beer;
They've taxed the note that often Wrecks
And things that bring good cneer.
They've taxed the mortgage on the roof
They've taxed insurance, too.
Until some folks have but reproof
For schemes OF revenue.
I've but word of good advice
For those who make the tax:
Why not impose some of the Ice
On more deserving backs?
Why make IA man who pays deDt
add something to his score,
When there are several millions yet
i Twerc well not to ignore?
Tax nuisances. not virtues. There
Z Is sure no lack of these:
The man who talks while cutting hair,
The man demanding fees
For doing what he ought to do.
And others of his ilk;
Pray why ignore the pirate crew
And put SO much on silk! -
The yellow journalist should be
Compelled to pay two cents
On every One-cent extra he sQ5
Brings out with lines immense.
Tax all the fibs this fellow tens;
think you'll surely find
That you've at last removed the spells
That weak finances bind.
Tax all the saffron clergymcn, u
ForgetIul of their place.
For every word they utter when
They would incite the race.
Tax people like our loved Van Wyck.
And Plat. and Croker. too.
For every scheming little strike
Their politics put through.
Tax deals and schemes. tax everything
Which makes our folk appear
To be bound fast within a ring
You'll ind there's plenty here:
Tax everywhere corruption. and
l think you'll shortly see
The people in a chorus. grand
Acclaim you splend.diy.
