Mir. Taft fin . Hotel Bus. (Syracuse Post Standard )

Just plain Prof. Taft of Yale uni- versity arrived in Syracuse at 10 o'clock last night and rode from the New York Central station to the Onondaga in the hotel bus.
 Five of the other passengers in the vehicle didn't recognize their dis. tinguished fellow-passenger. The sixth had suspicious that the portly gentleman in black was president of the United States up until a short time ago, but it took him two min utes to make up his mind.
 When Prof. Taft and his companion, Clarence H. Kelsey, president of the Title Guarantee and Trust company of New York, left the New York Gen. tral train shed they looked about for a taxicab. Mr. Kelsey saw the taxi about the same instant his com panion saw the omnibus at the far side of the street. Just then porter made rush for their bags
 Here, here, now.--''s Prof Taft started to remonstrate with the DOT ter when Mir. Kelseys gaze wandered from the taxi to the omnibus. Lets ride inNthat--that thing over there,'' the banker suggested, and away they rolled. swayed and skidded along West Washington street.
 How long will Syracuse stand for these trains in the street?'' MT. Kcl- sey asked.
 i've been coming through here ever since I was two years old" the former president answered, ''and I have distinct recollection of some of my earliest trips"
 As the omnibus careened down West Fayette street it was brought to a shockingly short stop. Somebody's bag had fallen from the drivers seat to the pavement and stood in danger of being crushed under the wheels of passing vehicles.
 Don't belong to me" one drummer spoke up.
 Glad it ain't mine," another.
 Drivers sitting on mine, I guess" the third surmised.
 It was the bag of the former prcsi- dent.
 His coming had been heralded in the lobby of the Onondaga and when the teacher of law at Yale limped slowly down the long lane from the East Jefferson street entrance to the desk, the conversational hum ceased. All eyes followed him as he walked to the elevator.
 One man approached and extended his hand, group of young women In evening clothes smiled shyly and a handful of men standing near the elevators uncovered their heads. All greetings were acknowledged with the Taft smile, just as broad and Taftly as ever.

STOCKS
 STEADY IN LONDON
Popu ar Shares in Home Market Reach Bottom Figures for Decline.

10:45 A. M.-For the first time in several days the London cables re- ported fairly steady market for American stocks, instead of the suc- cessive declines which have depressed quotations here. The home market, in consequence, made a better show ing at the opening than on recent sessions. The market failed, how ever. to maintain its opening rally. After half an hours trading most of the popular shares were at the bottom figures for the long decline.
 Close.--The market today closed firm. Stocks were poured out as free ly as they could be absorbed without bringing about bad break. Specu- 'ation was again dominated by the Mexican news and the preparations of the government for war depressed sentiment. Bonds were affected, as well as stocks. Large blocks of South ern Pacific convertible fives were sold under the subscription price of 100 par.
