WALL STREET NOTES
Smelting's Sharp Break at the Opening Keeps Market Weak
 Throughout the Day.
HARRIMAMS THE EXCEPTION
Guggenheim's Small Holdings in Smelling Not Considered
 Significant.

Led by sharp break in American Smelling right at the opening the en- tire market started weak and suffered further declines during the first half hour. Then there was moderate re- bound, followed by irreguarIty at midday and early in the afternoon. Renewed weakness developed in the stock market in the last hour and lowest prices of the day were seen. American Smeltlng was under partic- ular pressure, the preferred stock sell ing of sharply with the common. The entire list reacted, and very large blocks came out, from which 1t might be inferred. either that prominent in- terests had withdrawn support, or that bear operators were engaged in a move to depress values.
The morning journal-courier., 1908-09-04

The Hartman stocks declined along with everything else at the opening, in sympathy with the weakness of Smelt- CTS, but they were aggressively bought. and the decline quickly checked The strongest banking interests, both here and abroad, are said to he in full sym pathy with the Hartman plans and are bullish on the stocks for very much higher prices
The morning journal-courier., 1908-09-04

The opinion was expressed that the Hartman Rockefeller Prick combina- tion was taking care of Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, Reading and Consol- dated Gas, and taking no part in sup porting the industrlals. There is cer- tainly not much gas in combination, although the combination Is apparent ly in Consolidated Gas all right. And so far as the Pacifics are concerned, the opinion Is held in good quarters that anyoone selling short Is selling into bag.

Ii started yesterday morning with 4,000 shares all the way from 94 to 95 and under heavy selling declined to 92 1-s It rallied above 93 and held around that level for some time. The fact that the American Smeltng annual election failed to disclose Standard oil control has not discouraged the many people who believe in that outcome. ,Wedne esday's election resulted in the continuance of the Guggenheim con- trol as not only were the old directors reelected but avacancy was filled by the election of Guggenheim direc- tor. This was regarded as more sig nifcant than the fact that the voting showed only small stock holdings by the Guggenheims. It Is a well under stood practice for large interests to have their stock put In the names of subordinates or dummies. It has also long been a favorite device of Stand ard oil interests.

The dear girl walked along silently for time,
considering At length she asked,
what would you have had him do, If you had
been the princess?"
"Harny Rennolds has given very thrilling solu-
tion in The Tigers Story have just read 1t.
"In this narrative it is represented that the
Princess found out in some way behind which door
crouched the tiger behind which door sat the
lady. She had bribed the keeper of the tiger, who
gave her a signal by which she should know before
her lover brought into the arena.
"She met her lover by appointment the night be-
fore, in the geological garden, near the tigers
cage. She told him that she would know how the
tiger and the lady would be disposed and by some
almost mperceptible motion of her scarf she would
give to him the signal.
"Into which door will you send me?' he asked.
Which did she sayS" asked Dorothy in tense,
low tones.
Unto which would you have sent him had you
been the Princess?"

"Tell me. Into which door did she send him?"

she had again laid so confdngly my coat sleeve.

and this Is what thought:
"T love my DEAR sweet Dorothy so much that

she might be happy, there into my mind a
story that had recently read in of

"a good many years ago. it seems, Frank R.
Stockton wrote a story which set the world to
guessing-The Lady or the Tiger 1t runs like
this:
"a simple courtier dared to fall in love with the
kings daughter and she fell in love with him.
"By way of punishment the king decreed that he
should be brought into the arena, where, beneath
the amphitheater, under the royal box, were two
closed doors opening into separate apartments.
There sat behind beautiful woman; behind
the other crouched fierce tiger. No one knew in
which room sat the woman; in which crouched the
tiger. If he opened the door behind which sat the
woman, he married her.
'tAnd would be lost to the poor princess who
loved him?"
Eyes, If he opened the door behind which
crouched the tiger the wild beast would spring
upon him and devour him."
Which door did he openf" asked Dorothy,
breathless.
