STOCK MARKET
 STILL STAGNANT Prices Near Level of Previous
 Nights Close OUTCOME OF CONDITIONS While Business Requirements Have Not Kept Pace With Increase
OUTCOME OF CONDITIONS

New York, May 5.-Whatever deduc- lions are drawn from the stock market must be almost wholly negative, for the market continues near the level of stagna- tion. A slight fill up was given to the opening by the higher prices in London But the room traders closed their con tracts before the days end, and this brought the level of prices back near to last nights close.
 Sugar moved quite easily at a higher range than yesterday, and exactly recov- cred yesterdays loss as a result. Long Island active and moved up to S9, but closed unchanged. The bonds of the com- pany continued in active demand at ad- Nancing prices.
 The statement that the Pennsylvania has acquired control found credence, but a working agreement with the New York Central is believed to be involved in the deal. The story of a steamship service to run from the Long Island coast was re- Nived in connection with the movement.
 The reports of the merehantile agencies failed to receive the impression of reaction ary course of prices in commodities and of trade activity. The current stagnation in Wall street is the logical outcome of these conditions.
 In New York sixty day loans are only steady at a rate of per cent. In London the discounts command upwards of 4 per cent. and while the Bank of England's of ficial rate Is per cent. 1t is- securing high CT rates for discounts. In Berlin private discount rates are 4@41s per cent. and in Paris 31a per cent
 While business requirements here have not keptzpace with the .increaese in money supply, foreign money markets are more less stringent and the Bank of France makes a concession on interest during the transit or gold shipments. These condi- tions explains the gold export movement in the face of continuing large balances of merchandise credits in favor of this coun- try The bond market has been dull and has moved in sympathy with stocks.

MORE LIFE IN THE
 COTTON MARKET Bears Were Thrown Into Tem-
 porary Confusion. CLOSED AT A NET ADVANCE Throughout tho First Hour the Opening Figures Held Sway, But Later
 There Were Several Pe-
 riods of Irregularity
CLOSED AT A NET ADVANCE

New York, May 5.-The cotton market opened steady, with prices ? to 6 points higher on better cables than expected. home last night firmly convinced that fur ther success would attend todays effort on the short side, were thrown into tempor- ary confusion by the unexpected strength abroad and sought safer ground on the opening.
 Throughout the first hour the opening figures held sway quite generally, but later there were periods of irregularity, the perfect cotton raising weather over the entire belt getting in it's influence. Trad ing was at no time active, and at best the crowd was content to trim up outlying account for quiet Sunday and precau- tionary measure pending next weeks de- velopments in the crop country. Private cables ascribed Liverpools frmness to sudden demand for spot cotton from Man chester and Continental spinners, addition al sales having been made last yesterday, bringing the total up to 15.0OO bales.
 Europe was a small buyers of August contracts in the local market; New Or leans and other southern interests sold the new crop positions. Wall street took com paratively little part in the forenoon spec ulation. The crop news was more or less conflicting, but bore evidence of improve ment, following the good weather of the past week. Receipts are about on a line with expectations.
 The market for futures closed quiet, with net prices 5 to 10 points lower.
 New York, May 5.-Cotton quiet. Total today: Net receipts, 5,938; exports to Great Britain =; to France, -; exports to the continent, 1,329 stock, 375076. .l

New York, May 5.-Higher prices in Lon don gave better prices at the opening here but many prominent operators were ab- sent and prices were inclined to sag under neglect but fair strength was shown in spots. Wabash issues were good buying Sugar showed strength, but entirely pro- fessional Little selling steel stocks from Chicago. Money, although cheap, showed signs of hardening.

Not much attention was paid to the decline in surplus, but large increases in loans was taken to indicate heavier commitments on bull side than the room had suspected Business continued limited, but strong in spots and blocks of 5000 Long Island issues continue to be well bought but railroad stocks were neglected and inclined to sag.

"Eben HSIden.o

Irving Bachelors latest contribution to
contemporary literature is "a Tale of the
North Country" as the author terms it, by
The homely name of "Eben Holden" The
btory deals purely with American life,
touching ii among the farming districts OF
The st. Lawrence valley, in New York city,
and on the battle6elds of the civil war, and
contains much that is of interest in the
way of rustic wit, wood lore and Journals
Tic and military anecdote. While the book
on the whole is carefully written there are
portions which show signs of haste, and
several Inconsistencies appear which might
have been eliminated ON second thought.
1t is unlikely, for instance, that college
graduate would be as ignorant OF the de-
tails of table department as Mr.. Bachelor
gives one Of his characters credit Of being,
and again the outlandlsh spelling which
appears in Uncle Eos diary is altogether too
complicated to have originated in the mind
Of that simple old man.
One cannot read the book without in
voluntarily thinking of David Harum, and
parts of Mr.. Bacheller's work are SO SINH
lar to Mr.. Westcott's success that 1t almost
seems as il an attempt had been made to
revive David under new name. But E0en
Holden Is a well.drawn character in spite
Of his similarity TO that previous hero OF
fiction, and although the quaint, pithy
sayings which Mr.. Westcott put into the
mouth of his horsetrader have not been
tqualled 10 any way, there is plenty in MI
BAcheller's book to Interest the reader.

DOVER.
A Native OF This Town.

Lyman Stone, who died In Royalston,
Mass, Sept. 81, WAS born in this town
March 4, 1925. Mr.. Stones family endured
many hardships during the early part Of
his life. His father died when the lad was
only four years old and the work of sup
porting the family came upon the mother.
At times the family larder was reduced
TO potatoes baked in the ashes in the
open heartily, and salt and water, but the
woman won her battle with poverty, and
brought up her children to be sturdy men
and women.
At the age of FIVE Mr.. Stone went to
Filzwilliam, N. H., where he remained I'M
Ill he was 81. Fifty.one years ago he built
mill at Royalston, where he was engaged
actively 80 years In getting out chair stock,
retiring last January, when he leased the
mill to his son-in-law. Mr.. Stone married
Feb. IA, 1850, MArllla A. Waste of Whit
ingham. Nine children were born to
them, of whom all but one are living. Mr.
and Mrs. Stone celebrated their 50th we'd
ding anniversary last February. The event
was a notable one, many townspeople and
40 children, grandchildren and great-grand-
children being present. Mr.. Stone held
the leading town offices in RoyalstOn and
contributed largely TO the support Of the
Congregational church.

Trusts Organized In n Democratic state.
"If the Republican says that the trust
is a good thing, you ask him why the Re
publican platform condemns trusts.
"If the Republican says the trust is
bad thing, you ask him why more trusts
were organized during the present Repub-
lican administration than ever before. ~
NV. j. Bryan.
If Mr.. Bryan or any other Democr t is
guilty of any such balderdash as the above,
you ask him if majority of all the great
trusts organized since the beginning of the
present administration have not been Or
ganized under a law enacted by Demo
cratic state legislature and approved by a
Democratic state governor.
If w. j. Bryan says the trust is bad
thing, you ask him what antitrust law a
Democratic Congress ever enacted.
II they say to you the trust is bad
thing, you ask them, then, why only
seven Democrats in the whole Congress
could be found willing TO vote for the sub
mission Of a constitutional amendment to
enable the people to authorize Congress to
enact laws to regulate trusts.
