Cambridge, Oct. 2S-The Crimson varsity men put in another hard day against the scrub teams. Pennock practically has the left guard vacancy filled. This was Harvard's weakest spot in the line and it caused the coaches much worry until Pennock showed so well.

ACTION
IN RAILWAY SHARES

( Gossip.

1t was an interesting day on the
local Exchange. At least the last few
minutes of the session was decidedly
interesting. Early in the session Rail-
way common had been coming out in
q manner that indicated the satisfac-
tion Of some large interests with the
price. One OF the big trust companies
was a seller at 50 and down to 81, with
other brokers coming into the market
now and then as sellers.
In the last few minutes of the session
81 was bid. then S71h without bringing
out stock. The bidder of S7Iz then
offered to sell at 81 and was taken up
on three lots of 25 shares each. Then
he continued the offer at 81, made the
offer of wager that so would be
reached before 80 and turning offered
Gas at SO and then any part Of 100 at
S6h and quit.
Early in the session the feeling was
that 1t would be impossible to get any
Railway common unless there was a
let-up in the steady advancing ten
dency. Hence the drop. Perhaps 1t was
the real situation--perhaps II wasn't.
The bid of 81 and the sale at 81. and
subsequent bearish talk was but a sec

of kind to encourage confidence. But
all these influences gave way before the
later strength following the advance in
Steel common to nearly 1% above the
closing of Saturday. Close observers OF
market conditions noticed that a new
line of shorts were covering, becom-
ing nervous over the strength under

Steel Common Is Promised Larger DfUidends
STEEL LEADER OF THE MARKET,
RAILS GENERALLY FOLLOW
FOR FAIR GAINS.

NEW YORK April 1.-steel common
was the first stock to break into the
limelight today. 1t displayed strength
! right from the start, and was within
fraction of high at the end of the
morning session. There was a reason
for this, and It is to be found in the
announcement that the Corporation had
practically completed its extensions
and had sufficient working capital to
assure the common shareholders that
hereafter the earnings of the company
would not be used for betterments, etc,
but would be paid to the shareholders.
The common stock has always received
its 7 per cent, has no back dividends
due, and is entitled to no more than
the per cent annually.
The announcement is equivalent to
the statement that earnings, less de-
probation, interest, and fixed charges,
and preferred dividend, will go to the
common stock.
Having made/the passage of the Sher-
man law, some day Steel common will
be a little gold mine.

opening with a period of weakness de-

GIRL SAVES A LIFE.
Woman Attacked Calls ''Police'' and
Girl Does the Rest.

Buffalo, N: Y, July 9.-Quick work
by a Buffalo telephone girl late last
night got a squad of police to the scene
of an assault on a man and his wife
and of an attempted burglary made
an arrest and may have prevented a
murder.
Miss Lillian Hasselbeck, a night oper-
ator, had started to answer call from
a four party line.
Police, said woman at the other
end, dropping the receiver. She had
been dragged from the telephone by
an intruder in her home and was be-
ing beaten. Her husband rushing to
her aid, as the police learned later,
was stabbed in the face and neck by
the blade of a chisel.
Miss Hasselbeck devoted her atten-
ton to that call. There was nothing to
show which telephone on the line was
open.
From her records, however, Miss
Hasselbeck quickly learned that all
four were near No. 842 Jefferson street.
She telephored an alarm and in less
than three minutes the police automo-
bile patrol was on the scene.

WHY DO BOOKS CHANGE
Investigation of Book Trust Methods
Made in New York.

Albany, N. " July 9.-Complaint
has been made to the state attorney
general here against the frequent
changing of text books in the public
schools of the state. The attorney gen.
eral is looking into the matter and de-
clares he will call Governor Dfx's at
tention to it with a view to investi-
eating the state educational depart
ment.
TT is an outrage" said the attorney
general in a statement, "for the state
education department to put the par
ents of school children to the expense
almost annually of buying new text
books.
at would be interesting to ascertain
if any one connected with the state
education board is allied with the So
called book trust. An investigation
would make clear whether or not such
q condition exists or at least make
known the real reason for the frequent
changing of text books"

Chicago, July 9.-CORN-An excited
upward jump of more than cents
oushel for July corn resulted today from
reports of excessive hot winds in Kan
sas. The news caught the market in an
cover while offerings were scarce. other
options also rallied sharply but not to
such an unusual extent. In addition to
rear OF damage southwest, there was a
good deal of nervousness over predictions
that the government crop report would
be of a bullish character.
July corn opened sc to 1870
higher at nc to Tic, rose to 73c and re-
acted to 72e Septenber started I'M
changed to &c up at 67Ac to 675sc and

more there was disposition to believe
that the recent liquidation had carried
prices lower than could be justified.
September opened the same as last
night to &c up at 99Ac to 1880 and

Bear1sh weather both northwest and
southwest led to a reaction, the close was
easy with September &c lower at 991sc

ness ito the preliminary work of or
ganizing the Progressive party. Mr..
Perkins, who takes his vacations in
the winter, will presumably be occu-
pied all summer with others who are
to undertake the preliminary work
which the organization of the Pro-
gressive party involves.
A Big Undertaking.
Colonel Roosevelt knows, and so do
his friends in this city know. that the
detailed work of organizing a new
party involves about as difficult and
delicate labor as does any kind of po-
litical undertaking. A political or
ganization, what is called machinery
of the campaign, is something which
cannot be built in a day or a night.
Sometimes in the municipal elections
there comes successful uprising or re-
volt of the people from the domination
of both parties. But the success is al
the fact that there is no Skillfully and
permanently organized political APP
paratus or machinery behind the
movement.
1t is a prodigious undertaking, from
the point of view of pure and technical
politics, which the creators of the con-
templated Progressive party have I'M
taken.
It is probably with some under
standing of this difficulty that Colonel
Roosevelt's friends are now saying
that whatever be the result of the
Progressive movement in the fall of
this year it will make no difference to
the organizers of the party. Mr.. Mum
sey says that the Progressive party,
which will be organized speedily, is
not merely party of the present, but
of the future. Keen politicians of this
city have inferred that it is a perma-
nent party and not merely temper
airy, ephemeral demonstration which
the leaders of the Progressive party
now have in mind and that it is this
Roosevelt to intimate that the life of
the party will not be determined by
the election in November of this year.
Apparently the ProgressiveS who I'M
derstand politics look upon the cam
paign this year as merely preliminary
Progressive party under Colonel
Roosevelt should triumph at the polls
then permanence will be more easily
secured than would be the case if the
Progressive party were beaten, but
whether triumphant or defeated next
November the party is here to stay.
That is understood to be the view of
party shall be built for the future, not
merely for the present. With great
emphasis and intense earnestness. the
kind that reflects the zeal of the con-
vert, all of the colonePs supporters
in this city say that they have parted
for good from the Republican party
and that the new party will live. The |
the business men of New York are, |
however a little cynical. If the Pro- |
gressive party is beaten next Novem- |
Der the presumption with them is very |
strong that it will have been beaten
for good. HOLLAND.

From an irregular or heavy opening to-

Trading was perfunctory, however, with
no signs Of interest, while professional

publication of the copper producers re-

element of weakness but later regained its
loss. Dealings in Steel were larger than

The market rallied after the opening,

Selling of stocks, particularly the Copper
shares and Metals was was resumed in

Union Pacific was the weakest of the ac-

The market broadened at noon with
smart gains in a number of specia1ties,
while Steel rose q point and Amalgamat-

advance.
The rise of Consolidated Gas found ex-
