suffering some days with an abscess
in one ear. DR.. Works found that
the Rio Grande engine that had gone
down in the morning had returned
TO repIenish the water supply at the
Point and would start back at once.
The doctor said goodbye TO his wife
and friends and took passage. He
arrived at the Point at nine, the tired
old engine running into the station
on five pounds of steam and then
dying. Dr. Works attended to Mrs
SimO an dthen lay around until the
other engine that had been phoned

New York, Auril 1.-The bears got
the upper hand today in the contest
which has been waged on each sue
cessive day this week in the stock
market. The professional trading ele-
ment on the floor of the stock exchange
has been distrustful Of. the rise in
prices, and has felt for the top" con-
stantly by putting out short contracts.
Previous. to today they have been fore
ed to cover shorts later at loss, driv-
en- in by the substantial resistance of
the market to depression. Extensive
profit taking sales have gone on each
day hand in hand with the professional
bear selling, and the realizations thus
accomplished left les smotive for sup
porting prices, as has been done with
skill and success by the concerted OPP
erations for the rise during the adj
vance. Eold-out bulls were thus add

most equally heavy buying. After a
period Of quietude the market then
began to recede on com paratiVely light
transactions, thus demanding the with
drawal Of support. While liquidation
was not urgent with the beginning OF
this droop, the widening Of the declines
began TO dislodge stop loss orders and
10 uncover margins, which brought out
large additional selling orders. The
reaction was as much lacking in def
mite news to account for it as has been
the weeks advance. The most effective
argument Of the bears was the rise
