STOCK EXCHANGE OPENS
FOR Limited TRADING
Resumption of Operations Has
Marked Effect on Sentiment
in Financial District.
CHEERS GREET OPENING GONG
Dealings Reflect Hesitation and Tim
idity-Number of Material De-
clines From July 3O-Prices, With
Few Gains, Chiefly i'll Industrials.

NEW YORK, November 2S.-The New
York Stock Exchange reopened its door
to-day for the first time in nearly four
bonds. The conservative element had
successfully resisted all efforts to re-
new business. even In tentative form.
until home investment conditions re-
flected justification for such action.
1t was evident. however. that resump-
tion OF operations exercised 4 marked
effect upon sentiment throughout the
financial district. There was an un-
usually large attendance of members
and the sound OF the opening gong was
echoed by prolonged cheering from the
trading floor.
Trading reflected hesitation and tim
idity on the part of investors and
brokers. There resulted n number of
material declines from July 30 prices
with a few gains, chiefly In industrials.
AT no time was there any movement
suggesting serious liquidation. or for
eiEn selling. concerning which APP
prehension had been felt, there ap-
peared to be none at all.
DEALINGS AT ALL TIMES
ARE VERY MODERAT
Dealings at all times wero very mod
crate. The total business OF tho SEES
sion amounted to only $4,000 par
value, exclusive of $4,000 in govern
mcnt bonds. The largest single trans
action was a sale OF 10000 Chicago

early dealings at loss of two and a

being established Mt the outset. after
which fractional rccessions were gem

Issues were quoted, instead Of some 50

1t was evident from the disparity
between July 80 prices and some re :

Railway, Wabash, Seaboard Air Line.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
"ANoTHER BIG QUESTION"

Editor Day Book:-You have kick
ed up another big question in the
Judge Speer impeachment case. The
Impeachment clause of our constitu-
lions was put into it to reach exactly
this class of misbehavior, that is,
misbehavior in Office, which falls
short of being criminal" under the
Criminal Code. If the misbehavior
falls within the Criminal Code a Judge
can be tried and put in Jail like any
other criminal; but the trainers of our
institutions were sane enough to rec
ognlze that there was such thing as
a course of conduct uniting a man
for judicial position, which neverthe-
less did not come within the terms of
Criminal Code, and that is precisely
this case. And yet our impeaching
bodies, contrary to the spirit of our
law, are more and more inclining to
the notion that the only ground for
Impeachment is when an official
qualities himself for a convict's garb.
This is all rot; and for one | am glad
to see you point out the distinction
and call general attention to the mat
ter. Rehabilitate the spirit of an i'm
parchment law as it was meant, by
awakening the public conscience on
the subject, and you will find your
officials much keener to serve the
people. Henry Knaus,

THE LABOR AGENTS

HE EHBOR HOEN =
Editor Day Book:-A contractor
shot and killed a teamsters' business
agent a few days ago. Immediately
the newspapers, led by Jim Kelley of
the Herald, wanted to ''uproot graft"
in the labor unions. Kelley assures
us that he has the best interests of
labor at heart. Boss" Mclaughlin
feels about the matter in a similar
manner. And so does the employers
association.
We can rest assured that the big
department stores>are making no OBJ
jections to the purifying process"
If they were Kelley would soon shut
up. And let us not be surprised if the
Restaurant Keepers Association
should come forward to lend a help
ing hand in this noble" undertaking.
Don't you see the idea of all this
excitement?
1. We are forgetting that Con-
tractor Patrick Dignan murdered
Business Agent George Hammond.
2. We are getting a great deal of
public sentiment created against
business agents in general
Is there any truth in the charge of
graft.
l don't know. And l don't care a
great deal.
But do know that Chicago paint
ers receive the highest wages paid in
any large city in the world. Hence
it is quite natural that distrust to-
ward. painters union officials should
be created in the minds of the rank
and file.
The Chicago teamsters are per-
haps more solidly organized than
those of any city in the country. If
the teamsters can be made to believe
