LONDON STOCK EXCHANGE.
Rise of One Per Cent in Bank Rate
 Has Measuring Effect.

London. October 5.-While the rise of per cent in the banks rate of discount last week had a reassuring effect in sentimental sense, 1t had little practical result in either direction on actual bus mess on the money market or the stock exchange. The consensus of opinion from the British standpoint is that the gover- nors of the banks of England acted wise ly in raising the rate to 1 per cent and that they have. at present complete control of the money market and that last weeks action increased the likeli- hood of their retaining it by preventing heavy gold shipments. No further rise in the rate is regarded as imminent. The change made no appreciable difference in money rates on the open market.
 The American monetary situation con tinues to overshadow all other influences on the stock exchange, and every depart ment of the exchange is taking its cue from the prevailing moods of Yankee railroads. After several fiurries over the exciting aspects of the New York strin- gency and the effects of this on stocks, the market here has become calm again and dormant with respect to practically all investments save American railroads and dealers are more and more shy of these on account of apprehensons of in- creasing manipulations in New York.

FOOD FOR SLEEP. A Sure Way to Comfort.

The right kind of food will restore any weak stomach. It is better off without drugs and a little judgment in selecting light weight and easily digested food does the trick.
 A man in Grand Rapids, Mich, upon recovering from a severe attack of ner- vous prostration, says:
 ''The principal trouble was an intense ly irritated condition of the stomach, so severe that diluted milk would cause a sensation as if molten lead had been swallowed. At length, I began to study my own case. and abolished drugs and commenced experimenting with my diet.
 Grape-Nuts was brought to my notice. and l found It very palatable. and as a regular morning dish. 1t met all the re- quirements. and sustained me until mid day. After using Grape-Nuts a week. physical discomfort grew less. my strength began to return and I gained steadily In weight.
 Along with all these Improvements came good. peaceful sleep, which had been so fiighty visitor, and with it came returning hope and ambition. and now with perfect health, it gives me pleasure to give Grape-Nuts the credit 1t de- serves Name given by Postum Go. Battle Creek. Mich.

WAR HAS BEGUN
 ON AUTOMOBILES
WILLIAM S. GILBERT, ENGLISH DRAMATisT, coNFESsEs TO HAVING RUN DOWN A MINISTER AND URGES REGULATIONS.

London, October civilian S. Gilbert, the dramatist, appeared this week in the light of a conscience-stricken .motorist anxious to reform others. He wrote to the London Times confessing to having run down clergyman and urging more strick regulations for motors and ,iriv- CTS. Thereupon came a shoan of letters from prominent motorists. including Leo pold de Rothschild and Admiral Sir Rich ard Hamilton. declaring that MT. Gil- bert's inexperience in handling a car should not be made a peg on which to hang further restrictions on this ''alroady over-p prosecuted form of amusement.'
 MT. Gilbert replied. sticking to his guns and elicited much sympathy from non- motorists, among whom was Lord Rib blesdale, who, with pathos worthy of MT, Gilbert himself described the error which, thanks to the noisy, reckless motors" now assails him when he en- deavors to pilot his children, Miss Diana and Master Augustus" in a trap through London streets. The general gist of the controversy indicates a desire on the part of the leading public men, whether motor ists or otherwise, to have special legisla- ticn dealing with ell phases of motor ing.
 in this connection it is announced that Rudyard Kipllng has joined the vofur tees' automobile corps being recruited by the war office. The corps has 12O cars at it's disposal

BERLIN soERsE.
Charge in Rate of Discount Slightly
 Effected Security Market.


 Berlin, October 5.-The increase in the rates of discount here and in London last week only slightly affected the se- curity market, nor did the weeks events in Wall street exercise a permanent in- nuence upon it. The advancing of the rate of discount by the Reich bank was due directly to the unusually bad status made public September 30 and indirectly to the action to the Bank of England and to the New York demand which made lenders less inclined to place money.
 At a meeting of the central commit tee of the Reichs banES held yesterday, Dr. Koch president of the bank. said the fact that the situation in Wall street was still not clear was one reason for raising the rate of discount The situa- ton on the open market is improving. The tendency of the security market last week was quiet and values were fairly well maintained.
 Iron shares were mostly lower during the week in spite of reports of increasing exports of rails to the United States.
 Coal shares were better as a result of the cold weather and the announce. ment that the actual restriction of tn. coke syndicate was 20 per cent during the month of September as against z nominal reduction of 27 per cent
