GOSSIP OF A r E
Tho Recovery.

Saturdays market had prepared the
financial district for some recovery In
prices. The sharpness In the a
surprised some. but the thinness or the
market on the way down presented a
cue to what would probably happen when
q turn came. For some days past the
professional and semi-professlonal ele-
ment had been Increasingly bearlsh. n
railroad stocks formed the principal OBJ
ject of attack. A short position In these
stocks had become most popular. A
brisk recovery was therefore entirely
normal. so FAR. however. the q
does not appear 90 be anything more
than than a recovery based on the re-
tiremert OF short contracts.
II Is too early 10 predict that the mar
ket has definitely got out Of its rut. The
decline. Il II true. failed to bring out
stock In quantity and the sudden squirt
II the result. But ~ still remain to be
seen whether the advance will bring an
Important quantity OF new buying Tor
the Ions account. II In doubtful " the
long position was greatly increased yes
terday. except In n limited group OF
specialties. The uddenness OF the mar
ket's reversal of form led TO q small
panic among the shorts. The necessity
they were under to explain this unlocked
for development probably explains the
circulation OF all sorts of queer rumors
such as that the Dardanelles had fallen
or that a great French victory had been
gained.

Strength of steel.

From some points Of view the strength
OF Steel was the most striking feature
of the market. Al any rate IL did more
to encourage the trading element on the
long side than any other movement.
There was apparent reason for the ad-
vance in the rails. These shares have
been heavily sold for both accounts and.
even ~ the decline is to be continued.
a sharp upturn was to be expected
sooner or later whenever short sales
temporarily outran real liquidation. The
speculation In the war brides" and
other specialties has also been some
thing apart from the general list. But
steel az the leading trading issue re-
fleets speculative sentiment throughout
the community "a we'll as the state of the
speculative position. Throughout the re-
cent decline Steel has given evidence OF
an underlying feeling OF bulishncss.
Patient spectators on the long side Of
Steel. who have refused to he lured away
To the sensational markets in the war
brides" have been asserting In the past
few days that before long Steel would
move up more in M session than IL
had fallen In the past six weeks.

In the carly afternoon a stranger
visited a certain commission mouse.
Tina, IL. he Is described as a stranger
in order 10 distinguish him from the
customary habitues. This man reminded
the office manager that he had bought
shares there in the past n announced
his desire to buy some Steel. In the
course OF the conversation ne conhdei
10 the office man that he had a reason
for his action. He had obtained the In
formation from an incontestable source
tina the steel Corporation had received
an order from a foreign Government for
900. 900 IONS OF steel billets. lndepend-
emf companies were unable go bid and
the price settled on was 81 a ton o
the domestic price. Steel stock at this
time was duh around 59a.. and h new
customer decided that he would prefer
10 get HIS around 81. From that mo-
ment the market strengthened until Il
advanced above 81 on heavy buying.
Just before the close this particular
order in Steel was Allied.

Canadian Pacific shared in the general
md sharp recovery in the railroad
shares, although in the morning tho
stock was among the weakest features.
The earnings for the first week OF July
may have escaped general notice. as
they were made public after most people
had left the financial district last Sat
urday. They were bad enough In all
conscience. showing a decrease OF $617,-
0On, SO perhaps the apparent EFFORT 10
put them out as unobtrusively as posi-
bile was not misplaced. The bear party
in Canadian Pacific has not abandoned
It's position in regard TO the stock In

Of authority for belief that the dividend

held by the Spectator for the decline IL
that II the regular dividend Is declared

pose Of supporting the market for tho

NOT SEEKING SPEEDWAY FAME SAYS STUDEBAKER
The Studebaker Corporation Explains Possible Origin of Rumor Con
 meeting With Racing

Authorative denial has been given rumors to the effect that Studebaker .contemplates entering the automobile racing game Reports of this nature have frequently found their way in to print of late, this being the sec 'ond repudiation of any such inten- ton coming within the past few days from manufacturers of an i'm portance in the industry that might warrant their becoming interested in the sport
 A possible basis for the rumor con recing the Studebaker factories with a desire to achieve speedway fame may be found in the negotiations W hlch were opened several weeks ago for specially constructed motors of the same type that are being used on the new Studebaker Six. In some manner it had become noised about that new methods had been uncov- cred for developing increased power besides that of enlarging the bore Report soon had it that the Stude baker engineers had discovered the secret so jealously guarded by the French experts. and which has re- peatedly brought to their gonfalons racing track honors.
 The negotiations did not proceed far however, the Studebaker officials making it plain that they were in- terested only in developing a more powerful motor for their 1916 cars and therefore could not devote time to experimenting along other lines.

The new noble grand wants to have every third degree member pres ent, 1T possible at every meeting and every Odd Fellow, young or old. wis itor and member, put his shoulder to the wheel, boost Odd Fellowship. and at least bring one recruit. Of course there's no limit to the number in or der to make this a banner year for Phoenix No. ,. Are you with us. Everybody has a part in this great drama, one for All, All for One There is strength in unity. Phoenix lodge, No. 2, has the distinction of having elected the youngest member for vice grand in many a moon, and the new noble grand is well known throughout the middle and western states, having received congratulation for the high honor conferred upon him by his lodge from Iron Mountain, Mich. lodge: Hot Springs, Ark; Appleton and Seymour. Wis. lodges, and from friends in San Diego and Los Angeles, Calif.. which is proof that he. is still held in high esteem wherever he travelled visiting among Odd Fellows.
 R. c. Sloane was again appointed as captain of the degree teams, which he has so satisfactorily filled during the past and every member should give him his hearty support when called upon.
