FOREIGN ADv1CEs ENCOURAGE

NEW YORK. November 13.-Price
changes at the opening of today's stock
market were fractional in the standard
issues. with gains and losses quite even
" distributed. Some pressure against
Steel, the coppers. Union Pacific and
Wabash preferred was shown. Baltimore
and Ohio, Chicago and Northwestern,
Missouri Pacific and ST. Paul made slight
gains.
Bear selling forced Steel. Reading.
Union Pacific and Smelling down about
a point before effective support was eN-
tended. Full recoveries then occurred,
but the speculation was hesitating and
renewed weakness was shown in spots.
Mixture of Gains and Losses.
Irregularity and dullness marked the
course of today's early trading. Initial
dealings showed mixture of gains and
losses the latter being extended to fun
point in some of the more prominent Is
sues. namely. Steel. Amalgamated and
Smelling. while the oil shares made great
or declines There also was some pres
sure on Reading and Union Pacific.
In the main gains were limited to
group of specialties. Recoveries from the
low level were effected in the second nour.
but the dullness of that period robbed the
market of any significance Foreign ad-
vices were encouraging, but buying for
that account was light. Call money rose
10 Il per cent before midday. Bonds were
irregular.

CUSTOMS INSPECTOR
TELLS HIS TROUBLES
Hopes Human intelligence
Will Be Used in. Framing
Tariff Laws.

NEW YORK, November 13.-'Here s
hoping said the customs man. that
some time in the future some human In
telligence will be used in framing our
tariff regulations. Just now l feel like
buying four or five bombs and beating
1t over to Washington. I've just been
robbing few poor folks at Uncle Sans
order. And this isn't a muffled knock
at Collector Loeb. The worst you can
say of him Is that ne has enforced the
law. At the best he has enforced 1t
with consideration and kindness.
The customs inspector explained that
when Mr.. Loeb was made collector of
the port he tried to be liberal in the ad-
mission Of articles up to 500 in value
which could be brought in by residents.
and the articles for personal or house,
hold use which could be brought in by
non-residents. Then ruling from the
Secretary of the Treasury-undoubted
in accord with the meaning of the law
forced him to tighten the lines.
so" said the customs Inspector, I've
just been examining the effects or a
little family from Germany = sturdy
father, healthy mother, and two husky
bright-eyed. square-shouldered kids. II
was little old pip of tribe. I'll tell
you. They came loaded down with b!an-
kets-all new-and homespun cloth, and

and lot of truck like that. Those folks
had planned against the establishment
of their new home out in Colorado. They
reckoned that they wouldn't have to buy
single thing to start housekeeping with
more than a few dishes, perhaps. and
stove, and things like that. And they
had $500 in cash besides. Man, those
folks were rich!
Soaks EN- Hard.
"And what does our nice little old
| tariff law do to them. huh? Nothing.
only soak 'em pretty nearly two hundred
dollars duty on their goods. Of course,
they couldn't pay and still get to Colo
| RADIO. And so they saw that good, home
made stuff of theirs go to the storehouse.
with the privilege of redeeming it any
| time within year. And you know what
a chance they've got Of redeeming 1t,
| after they pay their fare to Colorado, and
buy stuff to start housekeeping with,
/ and keep those two hungry youngsters
| fed while the old man is finding a job.
! DO you wonder that the frau was
| crying when l saw her last? Or that the
husband let me know pretty plainly that
| cause the government wouldn't do such
1 a thing as to steal the goods of an honest
| man? And how do you think that ] like

people-good people-day after day.!
