FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
ELECTION NOT A FEATURE.
Little Consideration Given It b,
 Spectators in Stock Market.

New York, Nov 6.-During the first half of today's session of the stock exchange the undertone of irregularity and indecision suggested the thought that the speculative element seemed unable to grasp the significance of yesterdays election.
 Prices opened with substantial gains under London's lead, then fell back in numerous instances to below Mon days close. after which the market was temporarily left to its own de- vices.
 In the afternoon, however, a con certed buying movement in the specu- lative favorites, chiefly Union Pacific, Canadian Pacific, Reading, United States Steel and Amalgamated Cop per sent these and other issues up to two to five points from the low. There was some shading of prices due to profit taking and six per cent. money, but the movement was resumed and prices attained a higher level in the final dealings with pronounced strength to the active close Trading in the last two hours lifted the days total we'll above all recent records. General conditions abroad were un- doubtedly factors in the rise Advices from continental centers imparted a more hopeful view to the Balkan sit- uation and the trend of events in Lon don. Paris and Berlin indicated that Europe's financial interests were pre- pared to meet the supremacy of the democratic party in the nation with absolute equanimity.

TIGER AND INDIAN
TIGER AND INDIAN
 TIED IN TOUCHDOWNS. Pendleton and Thorpe Have Each Crossed the Goal Line IA Times Carlisle Vs. West Point.


 The total grist \of touchdowns for Captain Thorpe of the Indians rose to 14 last Saturday, which makes him and Pendleton of Princeton the lead CTS of the season in that department. Each hae made 14. The Indians al- ways have been a big scoring team, but it is also characteristic of them that they have been scored on at a more extensive rate than is generally the case with a team of so much strength otherwise. It would appear that there is a wider gap between their strength in offense and defense than is true of most teams of their caliber. However, in their expenditure of en- ergy on attack they bring in the points so plentifully that weaknesses of defense aren't sufficient to check their victorious marches.
 A better idea could be had of just how strong the red men are this year if they played Harvard. Yale of Princeton. None of these three is on the Carlisle schedule. Still the In- dians have a game on for next Sat- urday which is likely to test their scoring ability better than any pre- ceding game. They are to play the Army, and owing to the effectiveness of the Army defense 1t is seldom that any opponent thrives much in point making, even if it beats the West Pointers The Army has as good a pair of ends as any team in the east and probably the best lineman in the colntry, Devore, in breaking through and spiIling plays behind the line, and if the Indians can rip the Army de- fense apart enough to keep up their average of S7 points a game they must have an exceptionally powerful attack. Indeed, it takes a powerful attack to score half that many points on the Army by rushing.

Regulars Show Up in Fine Form Two Touchodwns Against Scrubs.

Princeton, N. J.. Nov. 6-President- elect Woodrow Wilson visited Univer- sity field today and for twenty min utes viewed the practice of the Prince ton football team. He discussed the teams chances against Yale with sev- eral of the coaches.
 For the first time since the Harvard game scrimmage work was indulged in. The varsity appeared greatly ben ef1ted by their lay off and fairly smoth- cred the scrubs both in attack and on defense. With unlimited downs the scrubs were unable to make any head way against the regular eleven and were frequently thrown for considera- ble loss When the regulars were given the ball they succeeded in mak- ing two touehdowns in rapid success sion.
 Dewitt and B1uethentha1 were not in the lineup today. F. Trenkman played at fullback and Swart at cen ter. Dunlap, who dislocated his shoul- der in the Harvard game, was in uni form, but was kept out of the scrim- mage,

The Redskins also played half and half' game with a university of To- ronto team. so that if it's points in this xehibition were included.

In the opinion of L. N. Powers of New York, who has been driving a 35-horsepower Peerless about Europe for the last three years, a well built American car is much more desirable on European roads than one of foreign manufacture. In the London core spondence of one of the New York newspapers he was quoted recently as saying:
 Though I intended to spend only eight months in Europe, I have been here now for twenty seven, and will probably finish the three years and go home. I have motored through Great Britain and the continent and given my car the hardest kind of work
 Yet the expense for repairs has been only s25. I had the car exam ined recently and 1t was pronounced to be as good as new. Foreign makers seem unable to believe that my ex- pense for repairs has been so low"

While the value and necessity of first class county and township roads is generally recognized, it is the re- suit of costly experience in various states that there must be a develop ment of trunk line highways in the establishment of comprehensive state road systems. This question is in- volved vitally in the present New York state situation. Of the S0,0O0 miles of road in the state. 1000 have been improved as state or county high ways, 4,000 macadamized as town roads, 10000 miles improved by towns as gravel roads. and some 10000 miles have been shaped to some extent, with approximately 26,000 miles remaining in their original condition. It was in the general election of 1905 that the constitutional amendment authorizing the issuance of bonds to the extent of | 60,000,000 was voted upon faVorably, the necessary legal enactments being adopted by the legislature that follow 1 ed.
