Gay & StursiS' Gossip

Calumet Mich. Dec. 1.-THE New
York market was inclined TO be dul
and without feature. There was occa
sional nurries of strength followed b,
extreme dullness. The closing figure,
were practically unchanged from sat.
urday's close.
The Boston list was also dull Will
exception of Cal. & Arizona which sold
mp to so, Superior & Pittsburg which
sold at IA SIS, Superior Copper as and
Allouez 40 -. Hancock held firm al
22 1-2.
There was not much change in the
curb list. Chino sold at %, Inspiration
1-2, Goldfeld ga, Oneco 9 is, and
Ray Central ? Ia. South Lake was
in demand closing at 1-2 bid.
New York. Dec 12th.-The bank
statement, the technical position of the
market, the Steel report and all other
topics of conversation this morning
have been absorbed in the question
of "how is the street going TO look
upon the new appointments for Chief
Justice and associate justices of the
supreme court as announced in this a.
IN. papers, The early prices i'm Lon
don are off, which would seem to indi-
cate that some people don't like the
appointments as announced. l have
talked TO several Wall street people
this a. m. and find that none of them
have really any good or positive ideas
about these announcements.
The actual bank statement was bet
ter than expected. Foreign exchange
is getting down toward the gold i'm
port point. The Steel report was just
about as expected. j believe the adj
vance estimate that was given was on
~ 1900 tons out of the way. We have
had declining stock market for over
a month. and have got TO point
where the big pressure to sell stocks
is over. During the past few days we
have had rallying prices. 1t is not at
another reaction. / think we ought
to make up our minds to nothing more
than trading market for the time be-
ing.-J. w. Prentiss.

New York, Dec. 12.--Do not look for
any big movement either way this !

time. Although London prices that

No especial news developed and the

HOW | GOT MY START
BY JOHN EvERs,

secoud Basenan Chicago National League Cub
If the short stop of the Troy N. "
team had reported for duty at the open
ing OF one season the chances are I never
would have beenaprofessional ball player.
I might have made a fair collar fnisher,
or sign painter. As a boy in vacations
I worked in a collar factory and also
learned to letter signs They say ! was
good at il. but possibly I would have
been better if I had not liked to play ball
SO well. l played moons and evenings
from the time I was ten years old. and
never lost a chance. The first success
l had was when l was made captain and
pitcher Of the Sheer Ups.
never had any idea Of PLAYING ball
professionally. because I did not like the
idea Of leaving home and my family did
not like it a biz better. Still 1 had quite
a local reputation in Troy. IN spite OF
which I never thought was good enough
to play on a real professional team. IN
summer I watched the State league teams
play and used to say 10 myself: Il could
do better than that myself but OF course
7 did not dare 10 say that out loud.
The spring I was eighteen years old
Troy signed a shortstop from Pittsburg,
and he failed to report. Four days be-
fore the season opened I took a half
holiday from the collar factory and wen;
to see an exhibition game The Troy
team had no shortstop and the manager
climbed into the stand and asked NE TO
fit in. He put the right fielder at shor;
and sent me TO right. I was scared stiff,
but as soon as the game started I forgot
10 be frightened. l must have looked fair,
for the next day he put me at short, and
I accepted eleven chances without an
error.
When that shortstop finally came on q
week later he didn't have a job.

SOURCES OF RUBBER.
Some of the Plants that Produce 1t
for Commercial Purposes.

for Commercial Purposes.
Probably very few of those who have
gone mad on rubber shares know that
the number OF plants producing rubber
is considerable and that they differ very
materially in their relative value In the
production Of rubber for commercial puT-
poses.
The most important Of these. says
Gardner's Magazine is Hevea BRASIL
iensis. a tree attaining 20 a considerable
height and belonging 70 the natural or
der Euphorbiaceae. This is the source
Of Para rubber, which has long held a
commanding position in British mar
kets.
Ranking next in Importance is the
wen-known Ficus elastica. which be-
longs 10 the natural rubber Landolph
HAS. woody climbers. belonging TO the
natural order Apocyuaceae, yield the
African rubbers. and Sapium biglandu-
iosum, belonging to Euphorbiaceae. pro-
I duces the Colombian rubber Hckxia
/ Africana is the source Of the Lagos
rubber.
/ Para rubber is obtained from several
! specias of hevea. but by far the most
important of them is H. brasiIiensis,
This species is widely distributed in
South America and with other members
of the genus is strongly represented in
/ the region drained by the mighty ANA
zon and its tributaries

rubber industry of the Amazon. is OF

the sea. but the Para district extends
over a large region to the south and
west Throughout this and the forests
Of Central and Northern Brazil rubber
trees are abundant
Rather more than thirty years ago the
! suitability OF Hevea brasiIiensis fol-
cultivation in India was recognized and
strenuous efforts were made to intro.
duee the tree into Ceylon and other
parts Of our eastern possessions in sufn
cient numbers TO carry out experiment;
on q large scale.
The difficulties were considerable, but
they were eventually surmounted. and
there are now large areas of rubber
trees that are giving an ample return
Under favorable condition the tree;
grow with great rapidity. and it Is re
corded that rubber trees planted at th'
Henaratgoda Barden, Ceylon, have at
tanned height Of fifty feet and grit
of two feet in six years.
Ficus elastica. the India rubbe
