NEW YORK. Aug, 18.-There was
radical change in market conditions
here and in London over night. Inn
portant buying was noted in both
markets on the information or belief
that an important announcement would
be issued from Oyster Bay during the
course Of the day. Union Pacific which
is still the market leader, moved up to
127 IA against 125 at the close yes
terday and nearly everything traded
made proportionate gains in the first
hour. Later the bears became ag-
gressive and forced a sharp reaction,
helped along by renewed liquidation OF
speculative accounts. At the end OF
the hour the market was again strong
with prices ruling well above yester-
days closing figures American cop
per dropped TO II Ia on a sale of
10000 shores.
In government bonds the new fours
declined Ia, others unchanged; rail-

LOBBYING BY OFFICERS.
Senator Hale, Makes a Move TO Have
Them Disciplined.

Senator Hale made move in the
Senate yesterday to have naval Off
GERS disciplined for lobbying i'm favor
of the personnel bill. He presented n
resolution asking the Secretary of the
Navy TO advise the Senate whether
executive orders forbidding navy ofi-
GERS and clerks from importuning
Senators and Representatives on mat
ters of pending legislation were being
enforced. The Senator referred to let
ters that have come TO him regarding
the personnel bill.
II have been informod,n said the
senator from Maine, THAT one line
officer of the navy said the line Off
GERS were going TO light fire under
every Senator and every Representa-
tive
Mr.. Hale asked for the reading of
circular letter sent to navy officers
and midshipmen urging them to write
to their Senators and Representatives.
Even the midshipmen are asked
to write, said the Senator. II want
the Secretary of the Navy TO know
what is going on, and believe he will
put stop to it,
Mr.. Bacon, of Georgia, said he oh
jected TO the resolution.
AOi RtA11R0 Ailt II lItNlutUL mas
the right To issue an order DENYING the
right of petition even to employees Of
the Government, particularly the
civil employees, said the Senator.
Mr.. Hale suggested that the right of
petition was recognized and preserved
under the resolution. Mr.. Bacon re-
piled that there were other ways of Pc
titioning besides the written memoir
ial.
Has it come TO this, that we pass
laws relating to our own needs, such
as raising our salaries, as we did only
the other day, and then deny to other
employees of the Government the
right merely to communicate with us
regarding their needs?' he asked.
Under objection from Mr.. Bacon,
Mr.. Hale's resolution went over until
today.

Remember the Horses

Think OF the horses these cold, win
try days. Don't let them stand on
the streets without cover for hours
at time. Let those who are humane
speak for the animals who cannot
speak for themselves. A few days
ago a countryman tied his team in
front of the Capital Office and his
horse stood without blanket from
shortly before noon until after 3
o'clock. 1t was cold bleak day.
The owner could not be found, but he
had. so little regard for his horse that
it ought to have been taken TO q
livery stable and held there until he
paid the costs. Have your horses
rough shod to avoid accident when
snow and sleet tcover the streets.

FIREMEN INDIGNANT.
Much Feeling Aroused Over Action Taken
By City Council.

Dy Nt9 NouhSHs
Much feeling has been aroused over
the action of the City Council at its
last meeting in appropriating only
$3.50 OF the $500 allowed by the Act
of the Legislature for the benefit of
the fire department of the City Of An
napolis, directly to the three compa-
nies OF the city, and directing that
the remaining $3.50 should be set aside
to form part of fund for fire alarm
system. 1t is held by many mem
bers of the different companies that
the money should be appropriated for
the more direct use OF the companies
or turned over to them TO be expended
as they wished.
When the money was appropriated
it was understood that it had been
appropriated by the State to the City
Council to be expended on the fire
department. However. it now ap-
pears that the item in the appropria-
tion bill for the support of the State
Government provided that the
amount should be appropriated TO
1.-The Mayor of Annapolis for the ben
eft of the Fire Department and the
question has arisen whether or not
Mayor Douw is vested with sole au-
thority to expend the money for the
benefit Of the fire department, without
reference TO. the City Council.
The fact that the amount was ap-
propriatsd 10 the Mayor for the ben
eft OF the fire department is taken
as disposing Of any claim that the
money should be turned over TO the
companies to be expended by them.
The majority Of the members Of the
volunteer fire companies appear TO
favor direct expenditure TO improve
the efficiency OF the companies rather
than having it devoted to fire alarm
svsfem
