STOCK MARKET
CLOSES IRREGULAR
Alternate Declines and Recov-

ly Changed for Day

NEW YORK, Nov, Perhaps, be-
cause Of yesterdays late tightening
Of money in response to the rise in
stocks; perhaps, because the outside
public was not attracted by yester-
days advance, the forward movement
halted today on the stock exchange.
A few stocks opened considerably
above their closings OF yesterday, but
most were little changed, and the
subsequent movement Of prices was
irregular. On the greater part Of the
coveries left prices at the end not
greatly changed. st. Paul was very
strong and active, but II was an ex-
ception.
Along with this hesitation in the
market, the familiar talk of disturb
ance through tariff revision" was
naturally heard again. II was Offset
by some rather striking predictions
to the opposite effect--among them
the declaration to his statesmen, by
the head of one of the largest mer-
camille houses In the country that,
IL am absolutely sure that there will
be no disturbance, and no injury to
commercial affairs by the election Of
Gov. Wilson"
Doubtless, wall-st. will take it's own
daily view.
Insofar as the London stock ex-
change reflected foreign opinion on
the diplomatic and financial state OF
affairs abroad, its testimony was
again distinctly reassuring.
The stock market closed irregu-

forward pass was thrown across the
field to them, but unfortunately for
Princeton IL fell short.
This game also should satisfy
those critics who always demand that
a winning team shall excel In ali
the subsidiary elements of play An
examination of the statistical data or
the game indicates that Harvard gain
ed more yards by rushing, made more
first downs, gained more distance by
punting, and running back punts; that
the Crimson lost less by penalties ana
less by fumbles and fumbled less.
Only in two particulars did Prince
ton excel The Orange and Black re-
covered eight fumbles to Harvard's s
one, but seven OF these were their
own, and gained 20 yards by forward
-eassins- to AHarxard,s- one Therefore,
all along the battle line Harvard de-
