But the cheap stock had all taken flight
and IL was not until fractional advances
were ade that the dealing began. The
record shows sales of 200 shares. but
from the endless chain" system in
dulged in IL is probable that very small
part of that amount really found lodg-

day saw good profit 10 their credit.
Apart from Mitchell. there was but
one other stock that secured favorable
attention. GraphophOne common was

Cannon Is n Town.

Speaker Cannon is IN town today. and
is still talking pleasantly about Gov
ernor Hughes. 1t is expected he will
talk with the President tomorrow. The
impression that the -approchement be
tween the Speaker and the New York
governor has been in any wise offensive
to the President is very confidently de-
MED in high quarters.
1t Is said that the President and the
Speaker understand each other, and
that there is going to be no breach be =

Secretary Loeb's Condolences.

1t is quite a long while since the
newspaper men have been taken into
the confidence Of Secretary Loeb TO the
extent of any sweeping political an
nouncements. For few days after the
$5,OOO.O 900 conspiracy was aired, there was
a perfect glut of political news about
the Executive wing Of the White House.
The secretary TO the President was the
storm center OF a most remarkable
series Of electro-poIitical disturbances
that kept the politicians and the country
guessing. Then, the opposition having
been apparently driven into its hole, the
lghtnings and thunderings subsidized for
time.
The beleaECered opposition. however,
has been poking its nose out of the
cyclone cave in rather suggestive
fashion of late. and few more
swishes of the business end OF the tor
nado are looked for. II will be no sur
prise II some significant announce
ments are made very soon after the
return OF the President on thigh au-
thority"
