Lost Taste for Our Securities.

New York. Sept. 3.-There was in the
market to-day a very orderly decline. in
which practically everything participated
with the exception Of the stock and con-
vertible bonds Of the American Telephone
and Telegraph Company The immediate
cause Of the decline was found IN the in
contestibIe proof afforded by the list Of
stockholders Of the American Smelling
and Refining Company, presented at the
annual meeting. that there had been
heavy distribution of the stock by large
interests. and that, instead Of control
being held By one OF the strongest groups
OF capitalists in the street. II was scat
tered broadcast among small holders all
over the country, commission houses do
ing miscellaneous business appearing On

See Large Distribution.
II was inferred that what had appar-
emily occurred in American Smelling and
Refining had probably occurred in other
stocks. and that there had been such 6
large amount Of distribution Of securities
within the past few months. as indicated.
that interests competent 10 forecast

 In every department of the game the Birmingham team was outclussed by the home guard--in hitting, base run ming and nelding they made the Bir- mingham cohorts look like bad money. This was due primarily. to the fact that Van Anda was working in great shape, backed up by sharp. gingery fielding. together with a lot of buncned hits otf Robertail1e.

His brother is in charge of the business at Lebanon, but most of the letters are forwarded to Stackpole in Montgomery. He spends his mornings Tn attending to the correspondence of the large breeding and training establishment.
 The big salary that he earns as pitcher for the Montgomery team is not used to piece out any deficits in the fox hound business. When asked If there was any money in the business. Stack" intimated that the firm for the past few years had been steadily buy ing new land and erecting new build ings.
