AN UPWARD MOVEMENT.
Improvement in Markets Tone Due
Largely to Short Covering.

New York, Sept. 5.-Beginning the
day with severe shaking up. with
prices depressed by the uunsettling of
European liquidation, the stock market
made up its losses and advanced fur
| Their before the close of one of the most
comprehensive upward movements of
several weeks occurred, in spite of the
fact that the demand was so limited
I that trading throughout was on a COM
paratively small scale.
While nearly all the more important
issues developed weakness at the open
ing. the stocks in which there is
the greatest amount of active interna-
tfonal interest sustained the most Sc
we're losses. The lower prices establish
ed by this movement prompted short
covering. and the list soon rallied.
The Improvement in the market, re-
sulting in a continuation of the upward
movement which began last week, APP
parently was due largely to short COW
ering. Stocks were in small supply,
and the fact that the recent gains have
resulted in no large offerings seemed
to increase the demand for short COW
ering, and as the day progressed the
inquiry became more urgent. There

Owing to the present uncertain state

the statement will show considerable
increase over the previous month, esti-
mates placing the amount at 900 to
$4,000 tons. Officials of the corpora
ton were quoted today as stating that
they did not look for falling off in
business during the current month. Re-

HACK BACKS OUT
OF RETURN MATCH.
Had First Posted $1,000 for Go With
Gotcf1 in Private.

schmidt left for New York today after
offering to post $4,000 for private re-
turn match with Frank Gotch. He will
sail from New York Sept. 9.
Hackenschmidts offer for a return
match with Gotch was offset later by
his contra dictory statement that after
leaving New York he would never re-
turn to America. In the meantime the
offer had been carried to Gotch and
accepted with the provision that the
match be held within two months. This
is not accepted by Hackenschnidt on
the ground that his injured knee
would not permit his return to the ring
in that time.
Gotch's plans are incomplete. but he
stated today that he would not begin
his round the world tour for several
months. He wants to spend that much
time in Iowa.

PRESIDENT TAFT
To Go Through Putnam on His Way to
Boston,

President William H. Taft is to pass
through this city tomorrow (Thurs-

from Hartford, where he is to attend
the state fair, to Boston. It is as
sumed that his private car will be at
the Capital City, from New York to
Boston, via Willinaantic and Putnam.
As the hour that the president is
scheduled to pass through here is a
tached to the o'clock express out of
convenient one for MOST people who
will be interested in seeing him, it is
likely that a large number will be at
the station to greet him, as has been
the case on the two or three occasions
that he has passed through here since
his election to his present Office.
