TO
PARADE in PROTEST
Pageant $4,000 Strong Selects
October IL for Demonstra=
ton in Pittsburg
Especial Dispatch 10 The. Call

PITTSBURG. Pa, Sept. 1s.-For the
purpose of placing ban on swearing,
blasphemy, cursing, indecent language
and profanity in general, at a meeting
of the Holy Name Societies of Pitts
burg diocese of the Roman Catholic
church. Bishop Canovin suggested a
plan to show the public that some men
do not swear. curse, etc.
He deplored the prevalence in Pitts
burg of cursing and swearing in public
streets and conveyances, and urged the
men to do all in their power to put a
stop to the habit.
Delegates spoke freely and one
sprung a motion for street parade
of all members in the diocese The
suggestion was carried unanimously.
Sunday, October IL, was decided on as
the day for a street parade.
Fifty thousand men and boys pledged
the Holy Name organization to assem-
bic down town and march through the
principal streets escorted by mounted
police to be furnished by the city au-
thorities who are in full natbv
with the object of the parade and who
also want swearing in public stonned
The marchers will wind up at the
cathedral with a review by the bishon
to receive the benediction
Some time past the habit of profanity
has been quite noticeable in Pittsburg
especially in public meeting places and
on the streets. Bishop Canovin and
the clergy feel the need of a reform.
They have the moral support of the
Protestant clergy and laity in the novel
idea of marching as protest. The re-
suit of the parade may be the rein
forcement of an old law In PennsvI-
vania, n cents for single oath uttered
which has not been enforced for MANY
years.

RESULTS
WORRYING TRADERS
Small Fry in Wall Street Is
Seeking Guidance From
Big Operators

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S.-There was an
expansion of the dealings last week,
both in the stock and bond departments
of the stock market which broke the
deadlock of apathy of the previous
week
Confusion and hesitation in the
formation of opinions regarding future
values were evident in the changing
current of the price movement The
prominence of political topics in the
news kept them to the fore in the
financial discussion. but other factors
less heard of complicated the influences
at work
The political reversal in Maine, fol-
lowing the result in Vermont, were
accepted as clear evidence of a trend
of public sentiment and the professional
trading element in stocks studied at
tentively for light on the impression
made on the minds of the financial
authorities whose guidance is sought.
The stock market in the first instance
was unresponsive. The rise in prices
after the Maine election was coupled
with the assumption that division of
political power in the coming congress
and a check to legislative action to
control corporation affairs would not
be ungrateful to corporation interests.
That assumption or it's open ex-
preston in stock market operations was
not relished by all parties in finance
and banking, and the later confusion
in the price movement was regarded as
marking differences in the interpreta-
ton of political effects on financial
affairs.
There was decided growth of con
hdence over the money and banking
position of the country
The weeks favorable weather condi-
tions took the crop prospects out of
immediate influence on the market
