RAPID INCREASE IN
 AUTOMOBILE INDUSTRY
Products Of Business Estimated al S249, ,2o2, ,00o-75,721 Hands Employed.

Natural enough wGs 1t b suppose that the automobile industry would make some rapid gains in percentage in the decade reported by the census of 1919, but that the gain should be 5,14&6 per cent. is somewhat surpris ing. The industry, practically born in 1899. made in the decade g. gain of s,27S,9 per cent. in the matter of wage earning,
 Tho latest census reports indicate that 76,T21 wage earners are connected with the automobile business. The value of products of the automobile industry Is estimated at sS49, ,2o2.000; the value added by manufacture S117.- 556.0O0. These figures do not take into consideration the accessory side of the business.
 On the accessory side of the indus try there are 1000 manufacturers in the country, capitalized (withOut counting the tire makers) at S200,0 ,000,- 900. doing Q yearly business Of S201,- s0g 900 since the census was taken. Since these figures are for 1911, it is seen .hac the business is still on the increase.
 In ehe matter of exports, the United Stateg has developed an increase of 40 per cent. in the past year, sending out S19I7S.4S4 worth of cars and acces- sories thus coming next to France in the business. France gained but IS per cent in the year, Germany 34.2o per cent. and England 27.9S per cent.

New York, April 11--Price move ments were somewhat conflicting in to- days stock market, this feature con duCing to more or less irregularity dur ing the greater part of the session Standard railroad shares, notably Reading and New York Central, were decidedly strong, with even greater gains, though less activity, in the Canadian group. Canadian Pacific rose over five points here, following it's ad- vance of three points in London, where most Americans appeared to be in de- mand. The movement in the Canadian enlisted little public support here. Fries were strong abroad and in this market, probably in connection with the statement Of a leading official of the road which gave some countenanca to rumOrs of 8 traffic alliance with Canadian Pacific.

TENNIS GAINING IN
 POPULARITY IN u. B.
B. c. Wright Says Growing Interest in the Game ia Developing Future Champions.

Beais c. Wright, the tennis expert, talks interestingly of tennis prospects in this country for the coming season and of the contest for the Davis cup in Australia last season, in which he was a member of the American team While admitting the great disappointment of not winning the cup, he felt that a showing was made by the Americans which satisfied all the members of the team, considering the odds which they faced. He praised the playing of the Australian team highly and said that he considered them a team which would be hard to beat for some time to come. The hope for American ten- his against the foreign players Is in the growing popularity of the game here. MT. Wright said he believed it would be mora generally played this season than ever before, and that this wide spread of tennis Is producing young champions from the colleges who are coming up to take the places of those who have had the front for many years. The young players show good promise of regaining for America it's tennis supremacy.
