FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STOCKS SLUMP.
Some Issues Drop to the Lowest Prices
 in Years.

New York, Feb. 24.-The action of the stock market today could not be explained as the result of alteration in conditions which determine sDeclI- lative opinion. These conditions were little changed; in fact, some improve
 ment might have been discerned had Wall street been in a more cheerful frame of mind. But stocks again broke
 sharply, many important issues drop ping to new low points. For 8 time
 during the morning quotations fell
 back at such rapid rate that the
 market was badly upset. In the last
 half of the day trading was quieter
 and some recovery was made, but fuctuations continued in a nehyous, cratic manner.
 The break began in Can, which gave way under a rapid fire from bear trad CTS. Both the common and the pre- ferred dropped about 6 points. Read ing and Union Pacific also were sold heavily, the former losing 3 3-4. It to duplicate low prices made by some stocks in the general decline which followed the slump in Can North western sold at 133, the lowest since low point since 1908: Erie at 26 12, the first preferred at 42 3-4, and Louisville at 13o 5-8 touched the bot tom figures since 1910. The weakness spseialtiss e which tba has 3 been again apparent, such stocks kume- ly, Woolworth, Goodrich and Mexican Petroleum showing substantial losses American Tobacco dropped 12 points.
 The weakness of the market gave rise to various rumors, mainly con cerning government proceedings against corporations. but none of them was substantiated. The decline served merely to illustrate the excess of bearishness in speculative opinion at present, for today's selling appeared to be little more than a bear raid. the effect of which was augmented by the uncovering of some stop loss orders. In another mood the street might have derived some comfort from the more cheerful sentiment abroad on expectations of peace in the Balkans. London bought 15,000 shares of stock. Lehigh Valleys report of a $156,00o gain in net last month, a, decrease in the number of idle freight cars, cheer ful reports from western traffic man agers and tho gain in surplus by the banks were developments which at other times might have been con strued favorably
 The bond market continued to be heavy. Total sales, par value, $2,150.- 900.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

SALES CAUSING ALARM.
But as Long as Europe Pays High Prices There Is Little to Worry About

The recent sale of Badly McGregor (3), 2.06 3-4, at an unprecedented price for a colt of his age at public auction, has caused another tremor of ner- vousness to the tirnid souls who fear the extirpation of our splendid na- tfonal breed of horses through the de- mand of the unsuitable foreign mar ket. Really, the situation is becoming so serious that there is apprehension of a move on the part of our hyster- ica1 friends similar to that of the grand circuit stewards, by which these pestiferous aliens will be required to stop bidding when they reach the dan ger mark. Our breeders must be pro- tested from the menace of a brisk demand and profitable prices, else the foundation of the whole industry will be sapped. says the Trotter and Pacer. They must not be encouraged to pro- duce any more Baldy McGregors and Billy Burkes and Badens, because there is such an eager demand for them that it will be impossible to keep them.
 It matters not that the breeders themselves may feel inpelIed to in-

quire, like Flanagan of Texas, What are we here fer?'' their timid and so- hcftous advisers selemnly assure them that they will ruin their business If they don't cease selling its product
 We dc not believe such an argument will appeal to the man who has bred or sold trotter like Baldy McGre- 900, or Baden for $25,0o0. These in divfduals will be very likely to look upon the conditions which yield such results as mighty good thing, and direct their energies to the effort to breed as many more like them as they can. Moreover. if such results do not inspire others to invade the same field of profitable endeavor, and thus great ly stimulate the production of trot- ters, they will belle the inevitable precedent of every similar situation In every line of commercial activity.
 There is nothing to occasion melan- choly reflection to American breeders in the fact that Europe is demanding their great trotters as fast as they
 are raising them. With a field for his avocation at home cfrcumscribed by adverse Legislation and automobile ag- gression. the trotting horse is fortu- nate in finding a market abroad that renders him so valuable an asset to his breeder, and 1t is a fair corollary to infer that the better the market try which supplies it for that is the proverbial law of trade. We should hesitate to aver that it were sound public policy to part with any consid- erable number of our great sires like Bfngara, Peter the Great, Axworthy, still in the prime of their usefulness, but we can spare all of-their get for which the foreigners. or anybody else, are willing to pay good prices.

Spirella.

The secret of perfect dressing, lies
in the selection of the right corset
model and the proper fitting, adjusting
and wearing of the same. The best
made corset in the world is not your
corset unless it is your model, made
for your type in your style, fitted to
your individual measures and SO adj
justed and worn that it meets your
personal requirements. There must
be that perfect harmony which makes
an unconscious oneness between the
well dressed woman and her corset.
At the same time the corset must have
power to persuade the flesh out of
irregular lines and mold the figure in
to pleasing curves of shapeliness and
grace to meet the love of beauty in
every woman's nature.
To preserve the soft outline of the
natural figure, and yet properly dis
tribute the flesh and support and
strengthen the muscles without i'm
peding circulation or COMPRISING any
vital organ, requires corset scientif-
ically made, correctly fitted and prop
erly adjusted on the individual wearer.
To render such service is the mission
of Spirella. Phone 108-R. 1926
