WOULD PROMOTE PEACE
AMONG THE NATIONS
Mr.. Gibson of Tennessee Introduces Q
Novel Resolution-Arma-
ments to a Minimum.

a joint resolution, entitled, Ito pro-
mote peace among nations" was intro
duced in the House by Representative
Gibson of Tennessee today.
THE struggle for naval superiority,
ii says, results In a continuous in
crease in the number and power Of ships
Of war; burdens are heaped on the peo-
pie; rival ornaments add nothing to the
welfare of mankind, but are a menace
to peace and progress.
Therefore. be it resolved, That the
President be authorized to open nego-
tiations with such nations as he may
select to formulate an agreement TO
reduce ornaments TO a minimum, for
the policing OF waters; the protection
Of citizens abroad; the suppression Of
piracy; the enforcement of international
obligations and the maintenance Of in
ternational peace"
Armaments for purposes Of agrees
sion or menace are declared TO be not
justified by the peace policy OF the
world. The sum of 100000 is appro-
priated to carry out the provisions OF
the resolution.

NEW YORK, Dec. 11.-Irregularity
was the dominant feature of the early
market today. The weakness of yester-
day, however. disappeared in the Open

encouraged by the good tone Of the
London market The low rate on call
money was a favorable influence also.
The recovery in prices was confined to
fractions, however. There was rather

shadowing an unfavorable quarterly re-

was no news to explain the rise.
The market was bought fairly well on
concessions, but the renewed selling Of
Steel preferred was depressing In

London bought about $500 shares. The
market all morning was under the in

DO NOT WEAR A LONG FACE.
1t Is Great Handicap in All Business
and Social Relations.

The man who looks as II he had lost
his last friend Is In no danger OF being
crushed by the jam of new ones unless
he cheers up" People are not going
out OF their way nowadays to associate
with the man OF mournful and melan-
choly appearance. They are afraid he
will tell them his troubles and they
steer clear of him, as they have plenty
of their own.
The most universal cause Of the for
lorn and hopeless appearance today Is
dyspepsia. 1t units a man for every
duty of life and causes him to become
respondent and gloomy, and necessarily
his looks do not belle his feelings He
appears cast down and detected and be-
comes a burden to himself and human
ity in general.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
dyspeptic's certain relief. They do the
work that his stomach is unable to do,

UP the question of the reappointment
Of Postmaster John. A Merritt. and

take profits that the rise subsidized, only
TO break out again on a fresh food OF

Predictions regarding the iron and
steel industry are not Endorsed by accu-
rate reports from the trade. Even If the
present reduced earnings OK the big
steel corporation should show a further
decline in the next twelve months. IT
would seem as II the current price Of
the Steel securities had discounted a
development of this character. II the
dividend of the United States Steel
preferred should be reduced to per
cent the security would still return a
large investment yield. as at its current
price as I per cent stock it returns
over Is per cent.

the exchange today the unprofessional
element was evidently trying to produce
further liquidation and cause a change
of sentiment to the bear side. The
Western contingent were heavy sellers
Of the Steel stocks.
There is no doubt that sentiment has
improved materially, and If the financial
situation holds firm for another AwO
weeks the belief is that the large mar
ket interests and the leading operators
will work for a rise so as to distribute
their stocks.
Had stock prices continued to rise
steadily, without a healthful reaction
setting In. 1t is doubtful IL Spectators
would have felt so confident concerning
the situation. Conservative operators
express the opinion that a break in
prices was due, and instead of arousing
fear Of a further decline the reaction
airy tendency has had the effect Of Gre
ating an Improvement in sentiment In
deed. il is admitted that a fall five times
as heavy would have been better than a
continuance of the bull movement.
Persons bearish on the Steel securities
point to the fact that there may be a
heavy falling off in earnings next year
owing to the possibility of further labor
| troubles in the building and other trades
upon which the steel and iron companies
depend for their business.

An average fall Of about point after
a rise of two weeks is nothing more
than is natural. and should be welcome
even to advocates of higher prices upon
values. A continued rise spells so much
company that the movement invites at
tack, even If not deserving it. On the
other hand, those who doubt that the
rise is upon values even more decidedly
take the view that reaction now means
escape from a later fall which would
be serious, as yesterdays reaction is
not TFS public has been conspicuous
by its ABSENCE. and no pity need be
wasted upon professionals, whether
they lose on the fan or the rise.
