New York Stock Market.

Wall St, New York, Sept. 17.-STOCKS-
Uncertain tendency in the general stock
market resolved today into a general de-
cline which continued until the movement
in Reading became normal. Then the
market improved and before midday
prices began to move upward. Some of
the losses were fully made up.
Reports of increase in dividends
large earnings and segregation of assets
involving a stock dividend were brought
forward to explain the early rise in Read
ing which jumped 10 points higher than
week ago. The rumors were classed
merely as stock market gossip, however,
and the explanation which found more
ready acceptance was that the shorts had
suffered a violent squeeze.
Bonds were easy
Reading almost monopolzed speculative
interest in the opening trading today. The
sharp rise of the stock in London follow
ing yesterdays b Iuyant advance in this
market caused exciting trading. The open
ing transactions was a block of 1900
shares at 1914 to 1924 The price was run
up to 17O1s on a series of large transac-
tons, establishing a gain of 22s 1t then
dropped back a point. New Haven was
again weak, falling IA to a new low record
of 1855. Other changes were small and
irregular. -fF -r
Rapidly of rise in Reading and weak
ness of New Haven disturbed sentiment
and traders hurried to get out of the
market. Union Pacific, Interborough Met

VERY IMPORTANj.

One hundred thousand motorcycles
will be marketed in the United States
! this year. This is double the outpul
of 1912. and already motorcycle manu-
facturers are planning for even q
larger production in 1914. These facts
give some idea of the development o4
4 the motorcycle industry and ar.
significant in that they point to eve.
greater things in the near future
There has been nothing spectaculal
in the development Of the motorcycles
1t has made it's way steadily and
persistently; gaining friends en- all
sides as it's mechanical Improvement
and refinements were established, year
; after year Today the motorcycle is
marvel of mechanical skill and
ingenuity, comparing in every way,
in its own field, with the mechanical
perfection Of the automobile. Speed
and power, the motorcycle has always
; had. Here it even beats the motoi
I car. But it is not because of exces-
sive speed that the motorcycle has
made good. 1t has made good because
1t covers ground as swiftly as need be-
i because it carries its rider comfort
ably, is dependable; and economical
and the initial cost is within the reach
or thousands who never can own al
automobile.
So for a definite class Of people, the
motorcycle takes the place OF an auto
mobile. And, moreover, the motor
cycle is used in some cases by people
who could afford an automobile---bu
prefer @ motorcycle for various rea-
sons. The fact is that the era Of the
motorcycle has just been ushered In,
The two-wheeler is now a factor to be
reckoned with in all forms Of business
and industry, as well as in recrea-
ton.
Used in Business.
Not long ago a motorcycle was re-
garded merely as a plaything, ma
chine upon which a dare devil could
go hurting about the country by dav
and night merely as a matter Of
pleasure. This class of motorcycIists
still exists-but it Is a mighty small
one when compared with the great
army OF men-and women, too who
now ride motorcycles as a matter ;of
business, AS well as for pleasure and
recreation.
There are objectionable IN motor
cyclists as well as Objectionable auto
mopillsts, men who have no concern
for the safety or welfare Of Others.
none for the laws o. our cities and
states and apparently none for their
own, either. But, the average motor
cyclists is as careful OF the rights OF
others as the average automobilist
And there is a reason for this.
Motorcycling has developed wonder
fully in business and industry Thou
sands Of men are riding motorcycles
today in their daily work. They may
be rural mail carriers. telephone line
men. emergency men, policemen, sur
veyors. drummers, contractors -or In
any one OF the dozens of other fields
where a motorcycle may be used with
great advantage. These men en-
crossed in their work, ride their
motorcycles In a manner that SQUARES
with good business. They are not
reckless or oolhardy. They ride safe u
ly and conservatiyely.
Women Now Ride.
The advent of the woman motor
cyclist also has tended to discourage
