eminent of the peace terms proposed by
the Balkan allies. Another explanation
was that tine selling was Londons reply
to the engagement of gold there for this
country, and was representative of the
feeling abroad that the situation had
not cleared sufficiently to justify Europe
in acquiescing in a reduction of its gold
supplies. A further engagement of $500
900 gold was announced. today. Lon
don's disposition to unload American
stocks was thought to have lessened the
chances of a large inflow of gold at this
time.
For a time, today, there was some buy
ing of stocks by traders who took the
ground that strqong influences, aligned
on the bull side were responsible for yes
teraay's apturn. This buying was more
than offset. however, by liquidating sales
and London selling, the latter being the
most effective in Union Pacific, Reading
and Amalgamated. Losses were restrict
ed to fractions in most cases. Canadian
Pacific declined points.

The appearance of a short, thick set
man, swinging a sample case at his
side, the disappearance of the man and
the finding of his case filed with
sample bottles of oil and grease, be-
side Chase river, has furnished
topic of interest to Cape Neddick peo-
pie for the past two weeks. says the
York Transcript. Who he was, where
he came from and where he went are
three questions that many people
would like answered, particularly the
last one. Did he suffer a fatal acct
dent, or did he purposely destroy his
life. Perhaps he merely wanted TO
dispose Of his sample case, but he
chose nightly peculiar place to throw
it away. No particular search has
been made to find out the Whereabouts
of the owner of the sample case. 1t
was hoped that some definite knowl-
edge would be obtained from Cleye-
land, Ohio, as the bottes bore the
name of f. j. Penfeld, Cleveland, Ohio,
but letters sent there remain unan-
swered.
