the best catcher in the league belongs to
John Henry Of the Nationals. 1t ap-
pears to be the consensus of opinion
among rival managers that the former
Amherst catcher has something on all
his rivals in this league. Henry seems
to have proved this this season, when he
has caught large majority Of his teams
games Not only has he displayed great
n naau, anlllty as a catcher and all,
attention to himself by the good judg-
ment he has used in the handling Of the
young pitchers. Boehling and Engel have
poth been developed under Henry's guild
ance. and the only pitcher that he has
not caught is Walter Johnson who was
assigned to Eddie Ainsmith last season

Some new business from the railroads
is coming out, but nothing resembling

company has purchased 5000 tons OF

for other equipment are also noted. There
is some broadening Of demand for certain
finished lines, with considerable competi-
ton reported in wire products. More

booked substantial contracts for 1914

walls in practically all staple lines. a
broader movement is anticipated with the
advent of lower temperatures. Appre-
hension of labor troubles at textile CEN
tres, notably at Fall River has been re-
moved at least for the present, but scar
city of operatives keeps production below
the volume of distribution. An easier
tendency is manifest in cotton goods for
contract delivery. but spot values hold

conditions than a year ago. Upon the

chinery at shoe factories is running to ca
racity In most instances, principally on
spring and summer orders, but the de-
mand for immediate requirements Is
mainly confined to small lots. There is
no accumulation OF desirable grades of
leather in any quarter. and the maximum

plies needed. The depressed state of the
iron and steel trade is reflected by a
sharp falling off in the output OF pig iron
last month, the rate of production being
the lowest in almost two years. There
was a considerable net loss in the num-
Der of active furnaces. while the steel
works continue TO curtail operations. A
somewhat better inquiry, however. has
developed in certain districts and the de-
cline in quotations encounters more re-
s!stance. In spite OF the fact that the
weather has favored outdoor construc-
ton, building operations during Novem-
Der were lighter than those Of wear

pansion as compared with that time.
"It is gratifying that there were fifty
seven fewer commercial failures in the
United States during November than In
the preceding month, even though the
business mortality of the country was
heavier than in the corresponding period
of recent years. 'Dun's' report indicates
that the amount owed by defaulting con-
Germs exceeded the aggregate indebted
ness in October, but chief significance
attaches 10 the number Of insolvencies,
since the sum of money involved is often
distorted by several reverses Of excep-
tional size. This fact was clearly demon
strated in last months returns. which
showed that forty-one suspensions for
10000 or more supplied over one-half OF
the total liabilities. thus leaving an aver
age of $3.50 for the 1886 remaining
smaller failures, as against SS,5s2 year
ago. There were, however, 202 more de-
faults than in November, 1872, with the
largest increase occurring in trading oc-
equations. Losses in that division were
more numerous by l3l and the indebted

THE WEEK in THE
CROP MARKETS
Grains All Make Gains
Cotton and Coffee
Show Declines.

Up to the last trading Of the week the
wheat market showed an advancing ten
dency, the gain over the low OF Monday
being about two cents bushel. This adj
vance naturally attracted seekers for
profits, and a small decline occurred on
Saturday, under pressure Of realizing
sales The general steadiness of the mar
ket was based on greater firmness abroad,
fairly good EXPORT sales, lighter receipts
at L rthwestern points, and belief that
farmers have marketed a large percent
age of their surplus and will hold back
the remainder Of their stock for higher
market, or until they can get line on
the coming crop.
An optimistic report from Kansas, plac-
ing the condition at 81 per cent against
81 year ago. with the acreage increased
II per cent, TO S,5SO,000, checked the adj
vance temporarily. but its effect was or
set by statement that Is per cent OF the
last crop had been FED 10 farm animals.
The high price of corn has had It's effect
on wheat prices, as 1t is asserted that
100000 bushels Of the more costly grain
have been fed to farm animals in the
country. The total interior receipts for
the week aggregated 10000 bushels,
compared with $4,000 a week ago and
9,69s,0OO for the corresponding week last
year The distribution at interior points
was quite heavy and shipments at interior
points we're 100000 bushels in excess Of
the previous week and about 100000 over
last year
The worlds supply of wheat decreased
3,974,0QO bushels in the week, against de-
crease a year ago of only about half
that amount There are no longer any
fears of Argentine wheat In the local
market, a retaliatory duty having been
imposed on 1t by the Washington authort-
ties. In the spot market the advance OF
No. 2 red to 81 OF leaves It still six cents
under the price prevailing year ago.
Corn has also advanced, setbacks being
only temporary, and with offerings light
and shorts anxious to cover the Decem-
Der contract has been more active than
other options. There has been consider
able apprehension regarding the quality
OF the crop, fears being expressed that
only a limited percentage will grade No.
2, even in January, unless there is
kets have been nrm, and there is a
growing conviction that the crop Of 1919
was greatly overestimated. based on the
fact that although the supply Of cattle
and hogs in the West Is comparatively
small. It has been difficult TO get prime
old, even at the high prices ruling. One
effect Of the high range Is shown in the
fact that $4,000 bushels have been cleared
from the Argentine for the United States
in the week. The closing price of spot
No. 2 mixed IS cents. is 81 cents above
the price month ago and 10 cents above
that Of year ago
Oats have followed the other grains.
and while there have been no marked
changes the trend has been upward and
prices are higher than they were a week
| ago, with covering by shorts and ele-
vator interests a feature OF the trading
The close Of spot No. 2 White. 47l2c, is

NEWSPAPERS BEST
FOR ADVERTISING
Trust Company Manager
Urges Their Use by
Banking Concerns.
CIRCULARS COSTLY
AND FRUITLESS
Trade and Financial Publications
Also Ineffective, Says
Anderson.

Horace Anderson, advertising manager
Of the Title Guarantee and Trust Com
pany, in a recent talk before the Bank
Publicity Association, advocated the use
Of newspapers In New York as the best
medium through which to accomplish ad-
yertising results desired by banks. He
spoke. in part, as follows:
Advertising is a very difficult subject
for any one with a conscience to talk
about. Those who are interested in pro-
noting advertising have no difficulty In
talking about IT, Newspapers state that
II you advertise In their papers and keep
1t up long enough you will be sure to
prosper. The magazines seem to have the
same opinion.
Il represent company that has been
liberal advertiser for twenty-five years,
and during the last ten years we have
spent $4,000 each year In advertising.
When business is good and We have more
than we can do. we keep on advertising,
because our advertising friends have
taught us that there is danger of some
OF our clients getting away from us.
When business is poor we are usually
convinced that the real estate market
is dead and there Is no business.
