NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE

New York, Dec. lI.-Speculatiye
conditions today made for greater
stability In the stock market and dur

In stocks which commonly moved
widcly but these conditions were ne
comrlished without III" nervous .N-
ci;cment which has frequently at
tended trading recently. Traders
sold stocks for a time in the belief
that yesterdays bulge was TOO rapid
and tha, a reaction would naturally
follow. After the leaders had been
jammed down 10 - points thcr"
was gradual rally which ultimately
raised prices to above yesterdays
close, Reading recovered more than
thr"" points.
Bonds were easy.
Urgent buying socmd TO be con-
cluded around midday. when prices

days close. Subsequent dealings were

Prices weakened steadily. some of
the leading stocks getting down to

Tossed in 4 little hot butter or

are improved by the addition Of as

add q pint Of white stock. Stir the
sauce thoroughly while adding the
stock to prevent Jumps from forming.
Then add 4 s~easoning: Of salt and pop

carrot, a bay Leaf, a tiny bit Of mace
and a sprig Of parsley. Let the sauce
simmer for 20 minutes, then strain 1t
and add enough tips to give \ moe

FOR A PUBLIC O c

The matter of granting riparian
rights at the foot of several streets
of the city brings prominently be-
fore the people the development of
our waterfront. Other cities have
taken this matter up seriously and in
many instances, millions OF dollars
are being invested so as to put the
respective ports in condition to re-
ceive the vast increase In commerce

lantic coast within the next few
years.
Not only should Perth Amboy Sc
cure the riparian rights at the foot

should be made and steps taken at
once, if possible, to buy up what
property can be secured along the

In the first place Perth Amboy,
with her excellent harbor facilities,
has not a public dock. Even South
Amboy can boast Of this and it is
high time that Perth Amboy was
reaping the benefit to be derived
from such improvement.
It is argued by attorneys who
have made a study of the subject
that the law of 1910, providing fol-
the establishment of a superintend-
ent of docks and harbors, was pass
ed for the benefit of cities that were
buying waterfront property with
the intention of developing the mu-
nicipal wharves and terminals. Why
cannot Perth Amboy take advant.
age of this act and at once buy
property sufficient for at least
one good sized municipal dock ?
The time is not far distant when
what wharfage there is along oeI
waterfront will be constantly used
for private purposes and the city
will find itself at a great ~inconveni,
ence, owing to the lack of suitable
sites.

WHERE MARRYING IS WRONG
FslIows Of Oxford University, Eng

1t will be necessary to issue
bonds for at least S10,500 for the
riparian rights at the foot of the
four streets which it is now propos-
ed to buy. A bond issue of $4,000,
if the aldermen do not see fit to
raise any more, would put the city in
possession of a piece of property
that would more than pay for itself
in the next few years. This is a
matter for serious consideration.
While bonds are being issued the
aldermen should do the matter right
and give the people something real
ly worth while for their money.

DOG-CATCHER NEEDED.

1t Is to be regretted that just at
his season of the year, when a dog
catcher is most needed, the city is
compelled to be without one. The
records In the city hall show only
1879 licenses issued thus far this
years as compared with 720 at the
same time last year. Evidently the
dog owners are aware that the log
catcher Is not on the job and are
taking advantage Of the fact to ig-
more the city ordinance entirely and
let their dogs run at large.
There have been numerous cases
of dogs attacking pedestrians dur
ing the past few days and appar-
emily nothing is done to relieve the
situation. 1t would seem as II
Perth Amboy has had all the expert
ence she wanted with hydrophoDla
cases. When one of our residents
died in great agony as the result OF
a dog bite the city was thoroughly
aroused and for the few months i'm
mediately following every precau-
ton was taken to guard against
similar attacks.
As is always the case, however,
such matters are soon forgotten, al
though it must be realized that a
person Is just as liable to be strick-
en- today as at the time when this
Young man referred to, died. 1t is
to be hoped the city can soon get q
dog-catcher who will rid our streets

molested, many of them not ever
