Oysters at Low Prices,

Those who are fond of good oysters
should satisfy their appetites at this
time. as the bivalves are lower in price
at the wholesale market on the wharf
than they are likely to be again this
season. Since Thanksgiving day the bot
tom has dropped out of the oyster mar
ket, and. while the receipts are good, the
son. Yesterday there were dozen or
more oyster-laden craft at the wharf. but
the buyers We're SO few that the measur-
ers and shuckers were sitting around in
sunny spots waiting for something to
turn up. Good oPtomac stock could be
bought at 50 cents per bushel, and from
those figures prices ranged to 60 cents for
selected stock. Cooler weather and the ap-
proach of Christmas will cause prices to
take a jump upward.

Not Taking Any Chances.

The big people are not particularly
afraid of political action, but they are not
going to take any forward steps or to de-
part from their settled policy Of prudent
reserve until the way is made clearer and
until the field becomes more attractive
for investors. There is nothing in the
situation now to encourage cap tai to in
vest in the new enterprise. 1t is about
all that can be expected II capital al
on holdings. The great banking houses
which hold very delicate relationship
between the railroads and other corpora
tons on the one hand and the investing
public on the other. do not see their way
clear to advise wholesale issue of bonds

point strongly to slow times. or at best
a very, very gradual Improvement of
general business for at least amor. .er

c1al and industrial world. whose judg-
ment must be recognized as better than

chronicler 1t represents the expression
and views of men whose hands are on the
pulse OF affairs of the whole world.
The stock market situation may be de-
scribed as reactionary. although not to
the extent of producing a heavy or sensa-
tonal decline in prices. There is no
widespread disposition to liquidate Securi-
ties. for the reason that those who have
their money invested in that class of
property are not able to find any place
else as safe or as remunerative. With en-
terprise lagg ng throughout the length
and breadth of the land and people con-
tent to do safe business on small prof

be that of patience and endurance of con-

Taft by 80, 900 Majority.

Senator Scott, as typical old-time or
ganization leader submitting to pre-
election interview. gave out the statement
that Taft will carry West Virginia by
10000 and that the republicans would
elect the legislature and the entire con-
gressional delegation. He left nothing to
the opposition.
But the rank and file of the senator S
party take either a gloomy or an indif-
ferent outlook. However, on the other
hand. there is not much genuine enthu-
siasm among the democrats. Most of
them look for a sweeping victory, but
they are also at sea- The unpopularity
of the Watson Chiffon senatorial selec-
tions is decreasing, but that outcome took
a great deal of steam out of the demo-
cratic engine.
Both the republican and democratic
leaders fear the possibility of Roosevelt
making another appearance above the
horizon.
