NEW YORK, May 2S.-The market
of today was apparently under the IN
huence of the sharp break in st. Louis
and San Francisco stock and bonds, In
response to yesterdays late news OF
receivership.
The company's first preferred stock
declined nearly 10 points. OH restrict
ed dealings, and the per cent bonds
fell more than six points, under rath-
er heavy selling. This may have meant
that holders of these securities were
taken OFF their guard by the receivr-
ship nws, or ii may have signifed
that, with SO many attractive oppor-
tunities in other and altogether sound
securities, investors in the Frisco
were disposed TO sell, for what they
could obtain, securities whose inter-
est payments would be suspended.
The second Of these influences may
have played its part in causing today
weakness In other low-priced shares.
AT any rate the market seemed to be
governed mostly by sentimental infiu-
ences. and they were not faypyable.
The selling affected thekhigh>pricd
shares also, though in a less degree.
Defines, taking the market as a whole,
we're extremely irregular and tn last
hour was marked by recoveries In the
more staple securities.
Tire was nothing in today's news
which could be said to have caused the
weakness. The one definite announce.

decided to insist on the surrendr of
Cntral Pacific by Southern Pacific
was not. TO be sure, point in favor
OF Southern Pacific; but It was mani

One OF the general resolutions was
to urge the city government OF San

The Menominee trucks are still ere
ating a great deal of excitement
around The Won Hamm-Young Co
salesroom, where two of them are now
on display. Since the first introduc
ion of the Menominee truck in 1911
the aim of the manufacturers has
been to produce a motor wagon most
perfect in design and principle, to be
sold aC an honest price. That they
have succeeded is proved by the gen
cral approval of both automobile deal
ers and owners. and the steadily in,
creasing demand for the Menominee
trucks.
That the motor car represents an
economic saving there is no denying,
said a San Francisco automobile deal
er the other day. 1t has been proved
repeatedly that it is time, labor and
money-saving vehicle. 1t has been
demonstrated in public tests as we'll
as by everyday usage that the motor
car is a utility vehicle as well as one
for pleasure.
A utility motor car is not always
the so-called vehicle or the familiar
motor truck. Any motor car. whether
it is fitted with roadster. touring or
limousine body, so long as its owner
uses it for business purposes in any
manner is a utility vehicle and repre-
SCENTS an economic saving.
If the banker uses his car to carry
him quickly to his office, then that
car is making money for him. 1t is
saving his time and time is money.
This not only applies to the banker,
but to the merchant, doctor, farmer,
real estate dealer or to any owner
who uses his car in any way that is
not strictly for pleasure

EGAN WANTS KINKEAD AS
COMMITTEE CANDIDATE
Especial to the Newark star.I

JERSEY CITY. n. j., Aug. 20.-If
Surrogate John p. Egan succeeds in
getting Congressman Eugene f. Kin
kead to enter the race for State COM
mitteeman in Hudson County 1t will
mean a three-cornered fight for that
political job. A. M. Henry is the
choice of the anti-Wittpenn forces,
with the possible exception of the sur
rogate. The followers of former
Mayor Wittpenn will have candi-
date, and Kinkead, if he goes to the
post, will be backed by the surrogate
and whatever following he can COM
mand.
Friends of the Congressman do not
want him to make the fight. He has
nothing to gain and everything to
lose, is the way they look at it. Had
1t been known that he wanted to go
on the State committee 1t is not un-
likely that he would have been the
unanimous choice of the anti-Witt-
penn forces.

ACCUSED HEAD OF BOYS
SCHOOL is ABSOLVED
IFrom a staR Correspondent

TRENTON, N. J., Aug. 20.-All
though the investigation into the
conditions at the Fairview Training
School at Frenchtown relieves it's in
structor and director, Henry o.
Kight of the specific charges of
ntrocious assault and battery upon
Harry Sparks, the Camden boy, it is
still claimed that Right disregarded
the warning of Judge Gnichtel to the
effect that he should not strike the
boys. The report of the investiga-
ton has just been submitted to Judge
Gnichtel by Probation officer Charles
Fl. Edmond.
The report contains an interview
that Probation officer Edmond had
with each of the Mercer county in
mates. All of the boys relieve Right
of the Sparks charge, and state that
the youngster received his injuries by
falling down a hill. The interviews,
however, are to the effect that the
accused head of the school used the
horsewhip freely and resorted to
other severe means of punishment.

The men occupied cell in an upper

time worked on secretly and had con-
