FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
METAL STOCKS DOWN.
Largest Amount of Copper on Hand
 Since November 1911.

New York. Jan. Stopper shares were depressed today by the unexpect- edly large increase in the stock of the metal on hand which was disclosed in the producers statement for December. Steel also showed a sagging tendency at one time selling off a point. Aside from the metal stocks, the movement among the favorite speculative medt- nuns was unusually narrow, with a heavy undertone toward the close. Holders of stocks showed little desire to sell at present prices, and bear trad CTS were equally reluctant to under take new ventures Easy money con- dft1onS and the cheerful tenor of for eign advices, which have been cited as recent sources of strength, were ignor- ed today and the market was dull.
 With the decline of activity in the leaders there was diversion of specu- lative interest to less prominent stocks, a number of which, including petrole- urn and rubber shares, developed strength. Beet Sugar sold three points above its low price of yesterday, and Western Maryland issues, having dis counted the passing of the preferred dividend, advanced sharply.
 The increase of more than 19,000 900 pounds in copper stocks was larger than had been forecasted, and the amount of the metal now on hand is the largest since November, 1911. Small sales have been reported recently be- low the price of IF 3-4 cents. which has been quoted for some time. There was a further break in the foreign market.
 Following yesterdays engagement of $1,G00, 600 gold for export, announce ment was made today of the engage ment of a similar amount Although the rise in foreign exchange rates has been pronounced, quotations arc still below what is regarded as the export point, and shipment of gold abroad un- der these conditions is looked upon as in the nature of a special transaction.
 The bond market was irregular. To- tai sales, par value, $2,735, ,00O.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call

Often in the past many year, but never has there been the con unuous series of surprises and remark abl ehappenfngs. In practically every department of the game players have reached marks never before attained. The series of noteworthy performances may be said to have gtartedon the opening day of the season, April II. for 1t was on that date that Rube Mar quard began his great winning streak. IT ended only in the final week of the campaign, when the Boston Red Box new champions of the Aneriean league, established a new record for number of games wont in the Johnson organization.

What Other Girls Do

1 The young woman at the lace rem 1 nant counter patted her hair down 8 1 little sleeker and yawned. "I tell you what, Flossie,'' she remarked to the 1 girl who wrapped packages, fits some | thing fierce the way some of these girls work their gentleman friends at Christmas time! It makes me blush for 'ern, it does!
 "Y'ought-a hear Tessie Cagan talk about iti She says she thinks it's an act of charity to help a man out,for the poor fellow hasn't any idea what to get his girl for present and maybe is too
 bashful to ask, and for her part she isn't too proud to come to his assist ance.
 T was with the crowd one night last year when she assisted MT. Diggins. He is a car conductor, and a nice man,
 and we all were walking down the street when Tessie gave shriek and
 dragged him to a window full of dew

 mas, and I'll bet MT. Diggins ate off the lunch counter for a month to make up for it. Then Tessie shook him in the summer for the f1oorwa1ker she met on -her vacation. I think there's something raw about such work Of course, it wouldn't have done any harm to have happened to say that every lady should have 8 mesh bag some time when they are going out together, and she could show up her old worn leather one. Then 1t would mt have been her fault if poor MT. Dggins had managed to gather in the idea.
 Tt ain't ladylike for girl to sug- gest to a man that he should on no account buy her certain thing, but if he wanted to do 1t she couldt stop him, could she?

Re- garding the prospects of next season, 1t can be said that Carlow IS the only one of the squad ineligible to play in 1913, as he has played four years on the team. Captain Thorpe, the great est athlete in the country will probably not return to the school, while there are others who may branch out in the world.
