TELLS WHERE TO PLACE
NEW BELLE ISLE DOCK

c. p. Taylor, who has taken an ac'
tive interest in the development OIL
Belle Isle as a park ever since It's
purchase, is strongly opposed to the
plan OF building a new ferry dock ON
the Canadian shore Of the island.
when the new dock is built, II
should be up near the island end OF
the bridge" says Taylor. "A double
decked structure there would be a
Leautifril thing for the island and most
convenient in every way. That Is
where 1t belongs. Then il could be
shelter as well as a dock.
Il remember when the dock was on
the side OF the island where they now
propose to place it again. There was
constant danger then OF collision be
tween the ferry boats and the passing
vessels in the river. Panies were not
infrequent / was on ferryboat one
time when boats were passing in both
directions on the river and the steam
er Milton d. Ward had to run ashore
TO prevent collision with the ferry.
There is even more travel on the
river now, more boats passing and the
danger would be greater than it was
before. We do not want TO make a
mistake and then mourn 1t after a dis
aster."

NEW YORK, Dec. 1O.-Two new
high records were recorded again in
Wall-st this morning and public buy
ing was in evidence again throughout
the list. The bear traders who have
been working to break the list foE
nearly two weeks. apparently abandon
ed their effort completely today and
swung their forces TO the other side OF
the market. The buying for the pub
lie was chiefly on the part OF investors
who took handsome profits after cleo
ton, expecting a material reaction or
which to repurchase.
Now that this reaction has failed TO
come, they are reluctantly taking back
their stock at higher prices than those
at which they sold. Union Pacific.
Southern Pacific. Alton, Wisconsin
Central, Central Leather and Peoria
& Eastern were among the stocks
which established records. There was
no news OF Importance. The speed with
which the specialties are being ad-
vanced is worrying some friends OF
the market. but there is so much cheap
money looking for investment that
the market seems able TO stand any
thing in way OF manipulation whether
for the advance or decline. On the
curb market La Rose. Nipissing. Cod
field Consolidated and Chicago subway
were the strong features. In London
Americans were very Irregular, but i'm
proved about the time the New York
market opened.
The market ruled strong and active
for a good part of the first half hour.
Selling by one OF the most active
houses in the market caused many OF
the traders TO take the bear side later
in the hour. starting a reaction on
which a good part of early gains were
lost and in some cases prices receded
enough TO show moderate net de-
