DEMOCRATS CONFER.
Relieved to Intend Considering the
United States Senat0rship.

Colombus, O., Dec. 6.-Ostensibly to
map out legislative program, but in
realty. it is believed, to discuss the
situation in regard to the United
States seuatorship. many of the DEM
ocratic members of the next Legisla-
ture and other of the party leaders
throughout the State rounded up in
Columbus today. The conference is
called for tomorrow. When the de-
liberations of the party leaders are
concluded it is expected that it will
be possible to form more definite
idea than at present as to the relative
strength Of the several Democrats who
aspire to succeed Charles Dick in the
United States Senate next March. The
names Of Lieut. Gov. Elect Atlee Pom
creme, of Canton, and Edward w. Han
ley, of Dayton, continue to be most
frequently mentioned in connection
with the Senatorship But the pres
ence in Columbus recently of an ennis
sary from Washington is taken as an
indication that John r. Mclean, the
Cincinnati editor, has not relinquish-
ed his long-nourished ambition to
wear the toga and that he will be in

lature meets next month if he thinks
there is a possible chance for him to

STEEL LEADS DECLINE
RUMOR OF PARTIAL SHUT DOWN
STARTS HEAVY SELLING
AT NEW YORK.
Story Denied BY Officers Of Steel
Corporation After Market Closes.
President Taft's statement In Mes
sage About Corporation Lcglsla-
ton Makes Favorable Impression.

uOn Makes faferaDie impression.
New York, Dec. 6.-Heavy selling
of United States Steel shares based
upon rumors that were officially
denied after the close of trading that
the company would soon announce
partial shutdown at some of its
plants because of the poor business
outlook, caused a general unsettle-
ment of prices in todays stock mar
lket.
The movement was of fairly large
proportions and in numerous in
stances brought stocks down to the
lowest level recorded in some weeks
The movement began in the after
noon some time after the publication
OF tn Presidents message which was
in no sense factor.
Indeed, conservative Wall Street
seemed disposed to extract much
comfort from the chief executives
recommendation particularly his
plea that no legislation dealing with
further regulation or control of the
corporations be enacted pending a
further test of existing laws, while
his efforts at increased economy in
the conduct Of governmental affairs
came in for much favorable criti-
cism.
During the early part of the stock
market session the list moved aim
lessly within fractional limits, save
in the case of the old Gould group
which displayed renewal of last
weeks heaviness.
In the early trading the local trac'
ton stocks reflected the later de-
velopments in the transportation sit
uation, but the advances then re
corded were wiped out in the later
attack upon the general list. Viewed
/ impartially, however, the proposition
now before the public service com
mission is believed to be the mos
advantageous to the city yet sub
mitted.
Unusually large numbers of rail
way reports, many of them from thu
most important lines were received
today and in no essential did the.
differ from the adverse exhibits re
1 Gently made. In some instance:
lower gross as well as net earnings
were shown.
The bond market was easy, will
total sales par value $2,21O,OOO.

TAKE OPTIMISTIC VIEW
VERMONT MERCHANTS EXPECT
GOOD TRADE DURING HOL-
DAY SEASON.
Snowfall Helps Business and Sdmu-
Iates Demand For Footwear ut Both
Retail and Wholesale-+knit Goods
Manufacturers Have Some Orders
For 1911-Failpres For the Week.

Reports to Bradstreet's for the
week show an optimistic view re-
garding holiday trade in Vermont.
Stocks this year are practically all
new goods as demand for the season
last year cleaned up nearly all of the
stock then on hand. Some holiday
purchases have been made. Retail
and the attitude of the buying public
appears improved.
The fall of snow during the week
helped trade and a more brisk de-
mand for footwear Is reported not
only by retail merchants but by the
wholesale trade as well.
Reports from manufacturers and
dealers in maple sugar apparatus
note demand so far this year that
compares favorably with that of a
year ago, with collections fairly
good.
Manufacturers of knit goods state
that some new business has come in
for 1911 delivery but work has not
progressed far enough to determine
fully the attitude of the market.
The unsettled question of wool
prices 1t is stated causes uncertainty
and hesitation about buying In
large quantities for future delivery.
Machine manufacturers are fairly
well employed; in some lines, how
ever, new business is slow. Clothing
and dry goods retail merchants con-
slider the outlook favorable and re-
port present business fully up to pc
Rod for season of year. Manufacture
ers of stereoscopes report a large in
crease in demand over that of a year
ago. Manufacturers of chairs for ex-
port and domestic trade report plants
employed to capacity and outlook
good for future.
In summarizing condition general
ly for the month of November they
compare well with same period of a
year ago, with outlook for immediate
future more favorable.
Failure reports for November this
year included one receivership and
five voluntary bankruptcies with liza
bilities of $7,2S3.S1 and assets of $4,-
030.57. This was one more failure
than for month of October. November
1909, recorded only two failures
bankruptcies, but total amount invol-
we'd was seven times greater than for
November of this year. Failure caus-
es for past month are attributed only
to lack of attentiveness in all cases
except one.
Fire reports for the month just
closed give nine fires affecting eleven
people, with total damage Of Sal 900
This gives a greater amount of dam
age by nearly $4,000 than was re-
ported as having been sustained from
the thirteen fires that occurred in
October.
November of last year recorded
eight fires affecting nine people or
firms with damage of $500.
Four domestic corporations were
chartered under the general laws of
the State for November of this year
giving an aggregate capitalization OF
S32 900. October Of this year gave one
corporation while November of 1909
recorded five with total capital OF
$325,000.

WORK ON COUNTY ROADS
COMMISSIONER CURRIER SAYS
MUCH Is ACCOMPLISHED
DURING SEASON.
Total Sum Expended During Year In
Washington County Is Between
$4,000 and $9O,vOO-Eleven Miles
OF State Highway Built-An In
crease Over Previous Year.

SzJ,VVV ana $5Oy00O-Eleven Miles
or State Highway Built-An In
crease Over Previous Year.
County Highway Commissioner r.
s. Currier of Barre was in this city
yesterday for the purpose of going
over matters relating to highways
throughout the country. The amount
expended on the highways in Wash
ington county during the past year
was between $4,000 and $4,000.
During the past season there has
been constructed under the direction
of Commissioner Currier a trihe over
IL miles of State highway. The work
consisted of SO different pieces of
road and was a slight increase over
the total mileage of road constructed
the previous year, which was 1876
miles. The most expensive piece of
road constructed during the past sea-
son was the 200 rods in the City of
Barre on the road between Mont
pelier and that city, which was built
at a cost of $4,000.
! 1t is planned to build considerable
road in Berlin near the Dodge bridge,
which is on a part OF the main road
between this city and Barre next
summer.
The City of Montpelier built more
State road during the season than
any other town or village, the total
being one and one-third miles, the
cost being something over $2,257.43,
the actual amount not being known
as the claims are not all in yet
Commissioner Currier is well salts
fed with the amount of road built
and said much more would be done
If funds were available. However,
the tax raised for road purposes in
Washington county Is above the av-
erage and he says the various towns
they have been doing in the past.
There are only two towns in the
county, Plainfeld and Waitsfield
that are not raising more money for
the maintenance of highways than
the law requires, which is 20 cents
on the dollar for ordinary road main
tenance, which does not include the
construction of State road, and there
are six out of the 20 towns and in
corporated villages and cities that are
raising so cents on the dollar more
for road maintenance than the law
requires.
According to the law 5 per cent OF
the State grand list of the various
towns and villages is to be used for
the building of State road and this
sum in Washington county last year
amounted to $S,94010. In addition to
this per cent the towns or villages
can vote from 500 to $500 to be used
for the construction of State road
and this amount will be doubled by
the State. Seven of the 20 voted $500
and the total amount voted in addi-
ton to the per cent was $6,364 and
this was doubled by the State, making
a total of $12,72S. Only two towns
Berlin and RoSbury, did not vote adj
ditional money aside from the per
cent received from the State grand
list
In addition to the two sums men
toned. which amount to $15,3O4.1O
the towns received a share OF the au-
tomobile fund and a share of the $77,-
600 special aid fund.
