NEW YORK, October %, 1923 p. m.-
Rumors of a settlement having been
reached in the Northern PACING mat
ter attending the sharp increase in ac-
tivity at advancing prices in the last
half hour. Previously the market mad
been extremely dull and uncertain IN
tone with exception of a few of the US
ua.ly inactive Northwestern railroad
stocks together with some strength In
the Vanderbilts. At the last, even the
industrial list showed irmness but
while there has been no announcement,
the movement toward the close this az
ternoon looked very much like man
ipulation. A feature of the day de
velopments was further sharp advance
in sterling exchange, which gave rise
TO the belief that the gold exporting
point will be reached shortly. We ad-
wise sales of stocks on further rallies.

Mrs. Bryan is to be the associate Of
Mr.. Bryan in editing the Commoner,
says a special from Lincoln, Neb., to
the New York Sun. This was made
known today by friend of the family,
who says that Mrs. Bryan will conduct
a department for women in the new

woman's department, dealing with
fashions and favorites. but will deal
with questions of higher culture and
with the interest of the advanced wo-
man generally.
Mrs. Bryan would neither affirm nor
deny the statement today, saying that
her husband was the editor and all an
nouncements as to the newspaper must
come through him. She has written q
great deal in past years, generally on
questions connected with the home and

Pekin, China, Nov, IA, 1900.
Mr.. Cy H. Lyle,



Pekin, China, Nov IA, 1900
Mr.. Cy H. Lyle,
Editor The COMET,
Johnson City, Tenn.
Dear Sir Enclosed find postal mon
ey order for one dollar, for which please
continue my subscription to The CON-
EFT for one year. Your paper is the
only connecting link between myself
and my old home in Johnson City. !
am always pleased to receive THE
COMET, as it gives me great satisfaction
to glance over the locals and see what
my old friends are doing. / am the
only Tennessee boy in this company, so
l haye to depend on THE COMET for my
news.
We are stationed in the Chinese city
of Pekin, performing provost guard.
We are entrusted with the care of $780,
900 "heatben Ohinee," and it is our
duty to see that they preserve the peace
at all times, day and night, and it is
hard task to accomplish, as about one
half the number are what is known to
the outside world as Boxers.
The 9th infantry is scattered to
the four corners of the city. We
have two districts to police beside
guarding the U. S. legation. The Tar
tar City of Pekin is in command of
Major Z. B. Robertson, a very able
and efficient officer; the second district
is in command of Capt NJ. L. Hersey,
(who is my company commander aud
he is also very efficient and energetic
officer. Our precinct is in excellent
order.
Duty is very hard at present. We
are OH guard every other day, and have
our drill in conjunction, so you see we
have precious little time for ourselves.
Uncle Sammy is a very exactiag en-
ployer.
The winter is on us and it is already
getting bitterly cold. Our quarters
though are very comfortable, and our
cuisine is excellent. When one has
plenty to eat and nice warm quarters,
they do not mind the outside cold SO
much. I suppose the regiment will be
stationed in Pekin until spring, and
then we expect to be ordered to the
states.
The news of McKinley's reelection
was very Unsatisfactory to the MAORI
ty of the company, as we are first, last
and always for William j. Bryan.
A merry Xmas and prosperous New
Year is my greeting to THE COMET ant
all its readers. Very truly yours,
MACK BRAY,
lst Sergeant, Co. H, 9th Infantry
