the advance resulting largely from fur
ther selling Of stocks here for London,
together with heavy purchases of ex-
! change by prominent International
banking houses. While the high rate
puts this center nearer the gold export
point, it is still the opinion of experts
that pressure will be brought to bear
to prevent an outflow of gold even
should exchange reach the level where
transactions of that sort could be
prOfitably made. Time money was
comparatively easy. most loans for 80
days or longer being made at 1-2 per
cent.
Receiving no encouragement from
London where the market for Ameri-
cans was dull and spiritless, opening
prices were generally lower though

| shown. Early trading in such stocks
as st. Paul, Reading, Atchison, Man

notably st. Paul and Reading. soon re-
covered. Rock Island issues made ear
ly gains of and 2 is per cent. for the
common and preferred shares, respect
lively, on heavy transactions. The
strength of these stocks brought
sharp recovery, but the list soon devel-
oped another reactionary tendency,
pressure being shown against st.
Paul, Missouri Pacific, Southern Paci-
! fic, Reading and New York Central, all
declining point or more, with greater
| losses in Canadian Pacific and Hooking
Valley. Louisville and Nashville was
decidedly erratic, starting with l
point decline, rallying l IL and then
declining almost as much. Colorado
Fuel displayed heaviness on reports of
a renewal of the contest for control,
but later recovered with net gain Of
8 points, on moderate transaction.
Trading continued dull and largely
| professional until the afternoon when
a new movement in Manhattan adj
vanced that stock to 1853, from which
| it declined 5 points, closing with a net
gain of points on very large trans
actions. The great bulk of Manhattan
buying was by Gould brokers. The
movement in Manhattan stimulated
buying in New York Central and
Pennsylvania. Metropolitan and Brook
lyn Rapid Transit were little affected
either way. The bear faction traded
cautiously, but took courage from the
| absence of any news regarding the So
called Manhattan deal and made
successful attack on that and other
stocks. New York Central and st.
Paul were jammed down while at

FOURTEENTH ANNIVERSARY OF

Takes Place December I2th-Union
Thanksgiving Services at Baptist
Church-Quest for Coal suppIies-The
Markets-Home for the FriendIsss.
The fourte zenith anniversary celebra-
ton Of East Rock lodge, A. o. Q. W.,
which was announced to be held on
the evening of November 90, had to be
postponed and the date has been fixed
for the evening of December IL. The
committee on entertainment, J. L.
Wetherwax, chairman, is arranging a
fine musical and literary programme,
which will include solos by Frank Ed
gar and Fred Coe and several either
solos, besides literary selections by
Edith May Root.
AT the meeting of lodge last week it
was decided to return to tn form of
initiation in use about four years ago
and this form will be used on three
candidates to be initiated at the next
meeting. The old initiation was much
livelier than the system now in use.
Officers of. the lodge will be placed in
nomination the first Thursday in De-
cember, elected on the third Thursday
and the installation will occur on the
second Thursday in January. On that
occasion several grand officers will be
present and banquet will be served.
The custom of holding union services
on the morning of Thanksgiving day,
which was interrupted four years ago,
is to be revived and services will be
held in the Grand avenue Baptist
church next Thursday at 1890 a. m.
The sermon will be preached by the
Rev. DR.. Phillips Of st. James P. E.
church.
The entertainment to be given in the
Grand avenue Baptist church this
evening is being looked forward to
with much interest. Professor John w.
Wetzel of Yale will give IAN evening
with Nicholas Nickelby" and there will
be some good musical selections. A
large attendance is assured. The ad-
mission is twenty-five cents.
William J. Konold, of I'll. Konold &
Son, who has been to New York trying
to purchase coal in order to supply
their customers, did not find much en-
enlargement in his quest. He says
that when he was there there We're 24C
boats waiting to load at Port Johnson.
The markets and grocery stores are
planning for heavy Thanksgiving
trade. This is about the busiest week
of the year for them. Turkeys prom
Use to be a little higher than usual, ow-
ing to the scarcity of fine birds, but
in other lines there will be a sufficiency
to supply the demand.
The managers Of the Home for the
Friendless are arranging for the an
nual meeting to be held in the First M
E. church on Wednesday of next week
at p. m. Reports will then be made
of the good work that has been accom-
plished by the home for the past year
On Friday last c. D. Manwaring OF
East Pearl street picked full bloomed
Jack, rose and white vio1ets on his
grounds. But there has been quite a
change in the weather since Friday.
The cool wave of Sunday and Mon
day has had the effect to make sharp
demand for coal. But there is no an
thracite on hand, or very little. From
the present outlook, it will be neces-
sary to purchase bituminous, which car
now be bought for $3.50 per ton.
