TRACTION
ACTIVE IN MARKET
Sale Of More Than 1,4oo
Shares Forces Price Down
From 119 to 1141-2.

Awakening from several weeks mac
ttvity, Capital Traction. on the Wash
ington Stock Exchange today, turned
what at first looked like being an unin-
teresting session into one filled with
thrills. The stocks activity made its
appearance early In the session. but at
tracted little attention. On the after
call, however. the real trading began.
After parrying for some time, transfers
became active, and before the fall OF
the gavel more than 1,400 shares had
changed hands.
Seventeen shares at the regular ses-
sion brought 119. On the after call quo
tations were asked for and given, and
soon the most spirited of trading was
being engaged in. The stock came from
ono broker, and the greater part Of 1t
was taken over by single broker, al
though smaller blocks were generously
distributed over the entire floor.
After the first sale OF fifty shares at
u71s 1t dropped half a point. Soon
there were l,220 shares sold at lis. A
block of ten then changed hands at
n412, when the trading closed.
Railway common was in demand dur
ing the day, although actual buying
and selling was absent The asking
price had reached s. at the close Of
the session, the offering raising one
half point from 901a.
Potomac Consolidated SIS saw an
active day, five of the bonds changing
hands at quotations of 99&4. Railway
Preferred demanded IS, at which tigure
sE6 SIX shares were sold Twenry.tiV
time promised to become active. This
was short lived. The transfer of
Washington Railway & Electric As at
S2as, and a share Of Mergenthaler at
2l3 constituted the remaining part Of
the days sales.

The statement about an insidi-

President Wilson has launched

But does he make a distinction In
lobbyists? He does not say a word

VERY LITTLE HEARD OF IN
PORTE rs LOBBY.
Desperate Effort Being Made To
Cover Up The Charge Lobbying
Against President Wilson.

The country is getting columns
OF news every day which Is being
made the most OF by the freetrade
press and the organs of the I'M
porters and Refiner's Sugar Trust.
about the activity of the domestic
sugar producers to save their pro-
perty from injury If not absolute
ruin, but very little Is heard of the
men who, ever since the inaugura-
ton of the beet sugar industry in
this country, have been seeking to
remove 1t because it has developed
into a dagerous competitor Of the
Refiner's Trust.
In the testimony taken before
the house ways and means commit
tee last year, every one of the re-
finers put on the stand admitted
that the elimination of beet sugar
production would be a boon to the
cane sugar refiners.
The Sugar Trust in this country
consists of the sugar importers and
refiners, Arbuckle Brothers: Claus
A. Spreckles, the Havemeyer inter-
ests, and a number of smaller con-
Germs which may or may not be a
part of the big combine. This is
the gang that is fighting for free
sugar.
The reason is quite plain. They
get their raw products In Cuba.
Porto Rico, Hawaii.even the far-off
PHILIPPINES, and in other parts of tn
Western hemisphere not ON the
mainland of the United States.
These raw products are refined
almost up to the last stage before
they enter the United States. The
only process necessary after the
sugar enters this country is to turn

HIS NEMESIS.

Nowadays. when everybody who
does anything seeks for the psychic
logical moment. the palm must be
handed to John L. McNab, United
States district attorney for Cali6orn-
la. who seems to have found the
precise p. nat least for resigning
purposes.
Mr.. AcNab appears to have the
major portion of the Golden states
prolstariat behind him. He wanted
to push the case against the West
ern Fuel company; the tatornsy gen
eral ordered him to pray for =
continuance. He thirsted for legal
scalps in the Diggs-Caminetti white
commanded him to lay aside his
scalping tools until the next term
Of court. Whereupon Mr.. McNab,
selling the p. m. (see above) when
the people were in a particular fret
full and psevish mood. sat down
and wrote fifty-seven varieties OF
harsh criticisms into q resigna-
ton and wired the same to wash
ington. Incidentally burning out
the insulation and causing hot box
60 all along the line.
Now we have the paradoxical an
nouncement that the president sides
with the attorney general, finds he
was justified in urging the contin-
uances, but orders immediate act
ivity in the suits with a special
prosecutor to push them.
But, as Mr.. McNab feeling re-
marks: eff 1t was right to postpone
the cases last week, why is 1t right
to hasten them this week?"
The only thing against McNab Is
his Republicanism. On account of
his adverse political beliefs one can
almost see the ex-district attorney
sitting up nights figuring how to
get a stranglehold on the admins
trations Capricorns. Knowing that
his G.. o. p. tendencies would cause
him to lose his Job some day, he
undoubtedly planned to go out
with considerable accompanying py-
rotechnics. And he succeeded. AL
SO It would not be surprising II. say
in two or three months. there shout
be another attorney general at
Washington. such things take
about that long to work out.

law and present legal imbroglio, EVIL

DAIRY NOTES
For Six-months1pId Calves.

What ration would you advise
for growing calves; we have them
out in orchard. They are six months
of age and receive some whole milk.
We have corn and oats, half and
half, oil meal. bran. cottonseed meal
They are in good condition and of
good size and want them to
continue.
ChestertOn, Ind. G. +. l..
Calves six months old should not
be expected to live upon grass
alone. They should receive some
dry feed in addition. If they had
an opportunity they would eat some
dry clover hay.
1t would probably be just as
satisfactory If the whole milk Were
replaced by skimmilk and grain.
The grain mixture could consist of
corn and oats with a little wheat
bran occasionally for the sake o.
variety. Calves should not be kept
extremely fat but in good growing
condition.-Hoard's Dairyman.

good for beef az for milk produc-
ton. These experiments began
about twelve years ago and were
completed more than four years
ago to their entire satisfaction.

are eloquent in their terseness and
meaning, and yet there are farm
ers.-well, what Is the use? l.

til they try, to their own satisfac-

the truth will have to pay for their

ALFALFA FOR THE DAIRY.
Good BASIS For Dairy satiOnA

No other food forms so good
a basis for the ration of dairy
COW as alfalfa" says Joseph E.
Wing, the reason being its extreme
richness in protein. and its easy
reason that cows like II and eat 1t
so greedily.
The alfalfa-growing dairyman
hasa great advantage over the
dairyman who does not grow this
forage for the reason that a ton
of nicely cured alfalfa hay is worth
as much as food for the dairy COW,
pound for pound. as the best wheat
bran, so it must be clear to the
dairyman who must pay $22 per
ton fog wheat bran that a field of
alfalfa yielding no more than three
or four tons per acre is a valuable
investment. 1t Ia well for the dairy
man, wherever he Is situated. to
consider how he can make his owl
soil produce alfalfa. as it has been
found that the cost of milk prOduo
ton can be cut square in two by
the uuse of home grown alfalfa.
Use Half as Much GIasin.
Wisconsin has found that with al
falfa in the dairy ration. it is nee
essary to use only about half the
amount of grain that must be fed
when other forage is provided: that
with alfalfa and corn silage very
little grain is needed to keep tn,
dairy COW in the most profitable
producing condition.

The question then is. is this
tariff added to the consumers price
for sugar? The testimony produc-
ed by the beet sugar men shows
that in the United States we have
the lowest priced sugar in the world
The beet sugar men claim that II
it were not for the competition
that they have brought into the
American markets. the Sugar Trust
would today be selling sugar high
er, instead of lower. The Ameri-
can Sugar Trust is part of the great
international sugar trust known as
the BRUSSELS convention, an organ
ization which controls the sugar
exports Of all the European coun-
tries. That convention limits the
amount OF sugar that each produc-
ing country may export in any one
year.
This sugar trust is supported
now by President Wilson and DEM
ocratic leaders in congerss, al
though thousands OF Democrats op-
pose It.
