STOCKS RALLY AFTER WEAK START
AND THEN BECOME SLOW.
NEWS OF DAY.

NEW YORK, Dec. 1.-THE market
did not get very good start. The
Sabash receivership and the fear
H>st II has with relation to certain
other Gould stocks had a rather
weakening effect. Then, too, there
were those who had their doubts
about the final effect Of the abroga-
ton Of the Russian treaty, strange
as 1t may seem. 1t had been hoped
that the Wabash denoument might
have been postponed until after the
Christmas holidays, but the insiders
thought that 1t was SO bad 1t might
Just as we'll be turned over to the
tender mercies of a receiver now as
after the happy days.
Naturally the approach of the holt
days also had some effect in lessen

period of the year for down brakes,
and January is the month when the
disbursements seek reinvestment. The
pace for some few days has been
pretty fast, and the nibbling public

Extra Police to Keep
Order in Busy Streets

A large force Of police will be de-
tailed in the business section OF the
city Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
nights to protect unescorted women and
girls from ''mashers," and to prevent
rowdyism among the crowds.
Orders have been issued by Major
Sylvester to the members of the force
good order on the sidewalks and in
front of stores"
There have been instances" says
Major Sylvester, where half-grown
men have formed lines to break into
or through the crowds of pedestrians
on the sidewalks; others who have in
suited women and children by words
or actions. and many who have gone
through the stores blowing horns. Such
conduct will not be tolerated this year
and we will have a big enough force on
the streets to see that there Is no dis.
order.
