MOVEMENT
IN STOCK MARKET
PRICE TREND DOWNWARD Is AR
RESTED TIME AND AGAIN
BY STRONG BUYING.
At Times Demand Dies Out Utterly
Leaving Market in Dull and Ne
elected Condition.

NEW YORK, Jan. 1S.-It is a rarity
violent a price movement arrested so
completely and suddenly as was the
case today. The departure from pre-
cedent proved completely mystifying
to the professional trading element.
Their efforts to conjecture what lay
beneath the surface of the market re-
suited in an exceedingly confused and
irregular movement. Time and again
a fall in prices was arrested by the
appearance of determined buying and
bidding On the other hand the de-
mand repeatedly died out in course
of the numerous rallies and left the
market dull and neglected without ap-
parent power Of initiative.
The seeming lack Of aggressiveness
lulled the uncovered bears into e. a
sense of security and they showed no
signs of anxiety to cover their short
contracts until late in the day. The
unyielding resistance developed to the
fall in prices by that time began TO
get on the nerves of the bears ano
their covering operations caused an
upward reaction that put more ma
tural complexion on the market.
Prices dropped back abruptly to the
lowest of the day when the Hill stocks
broke in the last hour.
Foreign selling of stocks was an
important influence in the early I'M
settlement. The fall in British con-
soils today and yesterday has covered
nearly full point. In ordinary cir
cumstances such fears of socialistic
government policies as are prOfessed
by the London financial world, coupled
with the considerable decline in prices
of American securities which has Oc-
Cured, would be expected to divert
British capital into American invest
ments. The unloading of foreign spec
ulative holdings proves more influ-
entail, at the moment, than any such
investment takings. This contributed
materially to the morning dip in
prices, which put some of the mar
ket leaders to prices lower than the
lowest Of yesterday.
In the northwestern granger group
there was some evidence of support
until the Hill stocks slumped late in
the day. There was revival of ru-
mors of the possibility of dividend re-
auctions in the group which have been
prevalent for several days.
Another spell of weakness in Rock
Island accompanied. the election of
Rock Island representatives to the Lee
high Valley board. 1t was regarded
as disappointment that the new or
der of things in that direction did not
go further.
The power Of resistance was con-
sidered weakened towards the end of
the day and prices ended at the low
est in sympathy with the break in the
Hills. Money continued easier and
discount rates abroad declined as
well.
Bonds We're easy. Total sales, par
value, $2,S45, 900.
United States bonds were un-
changed on call.

mob, with thumbs down, crying for
man to be killed.
Paulhan rose to the occasion. With
out any announcement his machine
appeared on the far west course, beat
ing against the wind. 1t came around
and over the heads of the crowd with
the wind at a speed of go miles an
hour.
"The Frenchman! The Frenchman!
He's a darling yelled some. Hes a
fool" said others.
Paulhan came down as though he
had decided against further flying, but
before the crowd had time to forget
their first wonder, me came over their
heads again and pointed the fiat nose
of his big white plane toward the
mountains.
He's off for the cross country rec
ord of the world" announced the meg
aphone man.
For ten minutes the machine flew
onward and upward, straight toward
the snow line of the Sierra Madre
range. Old Badly peak was the COM
pass point 1t lay in shining white
relief against the greenish sky behind
| it.
Over the foothills hung a dark haze.
Paulhan disappeared from the unaided
sight of the spectators when he reach
ed this bank Through the glasses he
could be seen rising over the haze and
taking a canyon trail, as it looked to
the summit. Soon he disappeared
completely from sight of those on the
field.
Bulletins were sent out and posted
on a blackboard as the machine pass
ed over the various small towns on
the way to the Baldwin race track.
Hes over Arcadia now" came from
the megaphone.
He'll be in another Arcadia soon,
if 1 am not mistaken said a pessi-
mist, gazing towards the silent places
Of the hills.
At o'clock there was a great shout.
Some one had seen the airship again.
Soon it came into sight, blown from
it's outward course, and on a line
with Mount Wilson.
To the eye it rose above the noun
tains, and there was a cry that Paul
han had gone mile nigh. 1t looked
as though an eagle had come out of
its home in the crags and was hunt
ing for an evening meal in the barn
yards of the valley.
The machine became more and more
plain and even the experts watching
and timing were surprised at the
speed with which it returned.
Mr. Bishop figured that it would
take Paulhan twice as long to come
back as it had to go against the high
wind The aviator had struck a mild
er current in the high altitude and
was coming home on this.
Soon he was over the field and set
thing gently. The rush began. The
Frenchman received his reward when
he stepped stiffly out of the saddle
and asked for a cigar.
Il will go twice as far some day."

HOMING PIGEONS ARE
AFFECTED BY WIRELESS

London, Sept. 9.-Wireless tele-
graphy is declared to be responsible
for the ever-increasing loss of homing
pigeons, and experts declare that the
ether waves entirely upset the hom-
ing instincts of the birds.
Captain Fraser, mayor of Move, a
well-known breeder of homing pig
cons, declares his conviction that the
increased loss of his birds during re-
cent years is due to the new electrical
influence.
Wireless telegraphy," he says,
'interferes with birds in flight, dis
turbing that mysterious sense de-
termining the direction in which they
wish to fly. 1t is possible. he adds,
tn the last few years, the percent
ae of losses has increased from some

AFFAIR THREATENS
TO BREAK Up CLUB
tBy Associated Press. ]

Chicago. Sept 9.-The Hamilton
Club, which has prided itself on be-
ing the banner republican club of the
nation. was greatly wrought up to-
day following the Roosevelt-Lorimer
incident of yesterday.
Senator Lorimer has host of close
friends in the membership of the club
and from these men came the rum
blings of revolt. They said they were
anxious to rebuke President Patten
for accepting the ultimatum of Colo
mel Roosevelt regarding the banquet.
The senator's friends asserted that
they were only awaiting the cue from
Mr.. Lorimer. and. if he resigns his
membership in the club, they said
they would do likewise. So far. how
ever, he has pot given the word and
has refused to talk upon the subject
The friends of Senator Lorimer
with considerable effort, maintained
silence today when asked by news
paper men for an interview bearing
upon the situation. Then they re-
lieved themselves by expressing their
personal views of the incident and
everything Rooseveitian in words ex
tremely torrid.
