NEW YORK, July 24.-There was
quite q healthy reaction today and
prices sold of on profit taking and
some stop orders were reached. The
advance has been rapid and not natu-
raj that it should continue without
setback. There was no great pres
sure and prices declined slowly. The
volume of business was not large, but
on the decline there seemed 20 be a
demand for the good rails. The de-
cline may extend further, but On any
sharp breaks stocks should be bought.
The bank statement viii probably
show an increase in loans. At the
close the market was steady with
soma improvement.

20 feet. Elaborate plans were made which marked the formal recognition by the state of New Jersey of this his torical landmark.
 On behalf of the state, the principal address was made by Gov Fort Other prominent persons, representing the national government, the state of New York and all the principal revolution ary societies, took part in the cere- monies.
 The monument is in 8 park, and stands on a point where the original outer works of the old fort were situ- ated. The monument will also mark what is said to be the original camp occupied by Gen. Lee as his headquar- ters and the site where Morgan's Vir- ginia rifemen were encamped. The fort played an important part in the movements of the revolutionary army, but no battle of importance was fought there.
 Many persons believe that the old fort and camp at Fort Lee were on
 
 Hudson river, but this is not the fact. The monument cannot be seen from the Hudson river. It was to guard a ravine leading up the Palisades that the fort was erected and it was situ- ated inland for strategical reasons. Fort Lee is full of traditional revo- lutionary history. The ruins of the stone huts which were used by Nor gan's men in their stay at Fort Lee are still to be seen, and the Fort Lee | association will take steps to preserve them. In these huts the hardy and determined patriots, with constitutions | that defied weather and hardships, slept in the cold nights of October and November, 1776. Another reminder of ] the period is the old stone bake oven | found on the premises of the Belvi- l dere hotel, and which for years has been properly labeled and protected
 It was in this stone oven that bread for the revolutionary soldiers was | baked
 Fort Lee has one tradition handed | down from the revolution that has al
 ways afforded food for discussion. It | is relative to Dead Brook and how the | little stream received such a name One story is that Hessian soldier
 was shot by scout while crossing the l brook. Another authority says that the scout, after climbing the Palisades,
 stopped to take a drink at the brook, and not relishing it went further up | to ascertain the cause of the unusual 1 taste of the water. He discovered a l Hessian bathing his feet in the stream l and shot him. Another story is that | a bloody battle was fought along | | brock, and because of the presence of
 so many dead soldiers alongside the l tiny stream the name of Dead Brook
 was applied.
