continued to the end before which
some of the lowest prices Of the week
were reported The pressure against
MON Pacific, Unitd States Steel, Le-
nigh Valley and other standards was
most Oppressive on the market.
The news of the day embraced a
variety of subjects, More reports
dealing with the condition of the ma
tional banks in the west were re-
ceived and with few exceptions they
showed further loan expansions.
Extremely cold weather in various
southern states, with killing frosts in
Florida, were reported, but lower tenn
perature in the west has impaired
a better tone to the general trade in
that section. The further increase in
the number of idle freight cars is
mainly due to the close of navigation
en- the lakes.
The leading railway systems con
tinue to submit reports of operations
for October. That of the Chicago and
Northwestern showed loss of $40S,,
900 in operating income, while the
Louisville and Nashville reported

RESULT IN OHIO
SATISFIES TAFT
President Seems Pleased Over
Nomination by Republicans
of Warren G. Harding
ASSOCIATED Press)

BIDDEFORD POOL, Me-, July 27.-
Wireless telegraphy carried to Presi-
dent Taft the news of the nomination
of Warren G. Harding, as the Republi-
can candidate for governor of Ohio.
Mr.. Taft spent all but the early morn
ing hours at sea. If he had planned
the cruise with any special purpose of
being difficult of access on nominating
day of the Ohio convention he could
not have devised a better schedule. To
add to the difficulty of reaching him,
the wireless on board the Mayfiower
worked badly The president finally
came ashore here at o'clock.
Mr.. Taft seemed pleased over the out
come in Ohio. He has a high estimate
of Mr.. Harding and said that with the
possible exception of former Governor
Foraker he regarded Mr.. Harding as
the best campaigner in Ohio on either
side.
The. president made it plain today
that at no time has he opposed the
nomination of Mr.. Garfield. Both in
conversation with the Ohio leaders and
in written communications the presi-
dent expressly stated that if Mr. Gar
field should be the nominee he would
tender him his hearty support.
Mr.. Taft related in this connection
an incident of last February, when Mr.
Harding called on him at the White
said he had come to the president be-
cause he had heard Mr.. Taft had de-
cided to support Mr.. Garfield for the
nomination. The president replied that
the report was entirely without foun-
dation.
He said he was not interfering in
