EOISON'S SON AUCTIONED CAR

MorristoWn, N. J.-William Edison second son of Thomas A Edison, was the center of attraction here recently when he auctioned off his motor car in the street for 1925. The buyer was a farmer, who paid in cash and drove the motor car away.
 MT. Edison lives between this place and Mount Tabor. He drove into town during the afternoon and engaged an auctioneer to handle the sale for him. One of the early bidders was Justice Pltney of the supreme court, who, how ever. dropped out when the offers neared the S200 mark

FINANCES AND MARKETS
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcH1

NEW YORK, Aug. 1S-Tkc mar ket again traversed familiar ground
 There was further unrestrained trad
 ing in war shares, including several issues in which public support has heretofore been utterly lacking. and more or less neglect to standard railways with recurrent weakness in foreign exchange. The latter condi- tion was partly rectified toward the end, the receipt of $4,60O,00O Japanese gold from Canada, and a semi off cial statement indicating the coming flotation of a British loan here in
 fusing some strength in the general financial situation. Early trading was the basis for one million and d half shares for the day but slackened visibly later. As usual war special
 ties, together with United States Steel, which sold up 771A. the highest since 1912, contributed more than their quota to the grand total, which aggregated I,O7O0OO shares. The only stocks to ascend to new records.

Wilson's Memory Lapses Racer Ignorant of Gerig's Death

Ellie Wilson, slowly recovering from the effects of the motorcycle accident Sunday, knows nothing yet of the death of Bill Gerig in the same smash-up. Until he is fully able to stand the shock. he will be kept in ignorance of the fatality.
 Yet Wilson seems to know that some thing is wrong. His brother, who is with him much of the time says Ellie is continually beseeching everyone to tell him what has happened, referring especially to something wrong.
 In a statement secured through rel atives, Wilson says:

'I don't remember anything between the time we lined up at the start and when they were carrying me under the grand stand"
 The blow mas apparently closed the racers memory to the incidents that led to his fall.
 It was said last night that Wilson will be out of the hospital next week. His brother announced that when he had sufficiently recovered, he would be shown the files of The Republican, carrying accounts of the fatal accident. T intend this to cure him of motorcycle racing" said the elder Wilson.

There's whole lot of people just coming alive" on the 'Riverside Park matter and it was all over a week ago.
 The condition of the street car tracks through the paved portions of Phoenix is a menace to the public On the dirt streets it is even worse than that.
 All along east and west Washing ton, from one end of the paving to the other the pavement along the rails of the tracks is rough jagged. broken and uneven instead of trim. smooth and even as it should be
 There are many places where the holes spanning the rails are a foot in width and from one to three inches in depth.
 Automobiles. bicycles and all sorts of vehicles, including fire fighting apparatus, must cross and recross these ravines and never without more or less damage and a vast amount of danger
 On all of the dirt streets on which cars run the company should be compelled to grade easy approaches to the tops of the rails and to sur face fully to the tops of the rails in the center of the tracks.
 The street car company holds a valuable franchise one increasing if value daily and while I have no fault to find with what the city commis- sion have done, I am sure that there are more things which they have left undone; and this is one of them It is fully within the power of the commission to compel the correction of this evil and should it so decide, it will have earned the gratitude of the most of us-only-do it NOW.
