PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Feb 3.-Billy
Sunday picked out a handful of the
stock arguments OF skept!cs last night
and treated them with the acid test of
his faith. He reduced them to nothing.
to the apparent satisfaction Of some
I2,oOo persons who had slipped and slid
their way over icy streets to the taber-

Questions which thinkers of the ages

Boston, Oct. 23.-Freight handlers e. the New York, New Haven and Hartford and the Boston and Albany railroads joined the Boston and Maine railroad employees in a strike here to- day for an increase in wages and pay for holidays.

The company also claimed that 1t had 250 new handlers at work and that 1t expected to have its freight terminals in normal working condition before the middle of next week.

London, Oct. 23, 1:15 p. mt is learned in banking circles that further plans are under consideration for bringing back normal conditions in the American exchange market. Bankers concerned in this undertaking say It has not advanced sufficiently to make public its nature at this time. Mean while exchange rates are weakening further. Cable transfers dropped to 467 a 4.67% on fairly heavy sales. The opinion is expressed in exchange houses that the rate will drop still lower unless the government support is given soon. The business today is understood to be purely commercial. as the government has not been in the market for some time.
