It seems that Chickasha was not the
only city that was surned down by
the state auditor In the matter Of
his refusal to underwrite the refund
ing bonds issued BY this city for the
purpose Of cancelling its outstanding
warrant Indebtedness.
The cities OF Enid and Tulsa were
also turned down on practically the
same basis. Mayor Bridges has writ
ten to these cities to see II some
concerted action may not be taken to
relieve the conditions in all the cities
interested
The law requires that the warrants
to be refunded must be collected for
redemption. This has not as yet been
done, and It is mainly because Of
the delay that would be occasioned by
this procedure.
It is thought that concerted action
on the part Of the cities involved will
open up way out Of the dilema.

CLOSING SESSION IF INSTITUTE WELL
 ATTENDED
INTERESTING PAPERS BY THE EMINENT EDUCATORS IN
 ATTENDANCE.

The closing sessions of the teachers institute yesterday continued full of interest. After devotional exercises led by Rev. H. P. Cory of the Presby- terian church, F. A. Lanning gave his second address on "The Recitation, V which was one of the meatiest ' talks of the entire meeting. F. l.. Hum phrey followed with full and frank discussion of the address and surprised the teachers by his force and fluency in discussion. Many others took active part in the comment, showing that MT. Lanning's 8 address had aroused deep in- terest.
 The only other number of the morn ing session was an address on 'eThc Teachers Preparation" by F. D. Smith. In the afternoon the commit. tee on resolutions made their report, expressing the thanks of the institute for the many courtesies extended dur ing the meeting, especially to those who furnished the music for the lecture on Tuesday evening. There were two fur nished the music for the lecture on Tuesday evening. There were two reso- lutions in the nature of recommenda- tions to the territorial board of educa- tion, which after much discussion, were passed, and are herewith appended. A discussion of the questions that had ac- cumulated in the query box came next, after which Mir. Lanning completed his talks on "The Recitation,' and the in. stitute closed with the song, "God Be With You" The general opinion seems to be that this is the most successful institute in the history of Gila county.
 Following are the resolutions passed: aReofyqoffollowed'IW N l. W F K D

NEW YORK, December 23.-The speculative community remained con- yinced today of the important align ments in progress or in contemplation of railroad relations. The first effect of the announced purchase of control of the Colorado Southern by Burling- ton had a mixture of misgivings as a possible prelude to renewed outbreak of the antagonisms which figured in the Northern Securities company. The misgivings passed away, apparently, and the incident came to be looked on with unmixed encouragement and spec ulative enthusiasm. Bonds were irregu- lar

Striking evidence. of the underlying strength of the market was afforded yesterday in the sharp advance of stocks, led by the big railroads. While the announcement of important com, binations and absorptions of railroad interests had much to do with the mar ket's reversal of form, yet equally eff, fective in starting the buying movement was the market s oversold condition and the efforts of the professional traders to cover their short commit. ments before the Christmas holidays. The advance may not go much farther until after New Year, but stocks should be bought on all recessions

The placing of two important rail or. ders, that of the Pennsylvania railroad for l35,000 tons and of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy for 10000 tons, has given the principal interest to the steel market during the past week. The Pennsylvania order is not quite as large as it was expected to be, but, with the Burlington contract, it gives an eneour- aging start to the rail business of the coming year. The order is said to be divided almost equally between Bes- semer and open-hearth rails. Of the Pennsylvania total order, 62,000 tons were awarded to the Illinois Steel com pany. Delivery prior to March l has been asked on part of the rails.

It is figured that the terms under which the Pennsylvania railroad 8 or, der for rails was signed represent re- duetion of very close to $2 per ton in the price of rails. Although the old price of s2S stands, the higher cost of production under the new specifications and the better quality of rails given constitute an equivalent of a conces. sion in price.
