Largely in Consequence of the Inter-

New York, Dec. 1.-THE market
was again under the spell of depres-
sion for the greater part of today's

sequence of the international situa-
ton. There was no concerted selling
such as characterized yesterdays late
operations, but prices drifted aimless-
ly from sheer inertia.
Aggressive tactics were Temperate
ly abandoned by the bears, and such
ed were held in restraint, pending a
more definite knowledge or outcome
of the relations between Washington
and Vienna. Foreign selling continu-
ed as an aftermath of the plan of the
British government to mobilize Amer
lean securities, but offerings from
such sources were not in sufficient
volume to materially affect quoted
values.
Exchange on leading European CEN
tters, was more than ordinarily SON
dieting. Remittances to Germany re-
coded to within a fraction of the re-
cent low rate. while sterling and

New York, Dec. 17.-At the close OF
a meeting between representatives of
organized baseball and the Federal
league at 6.25 o'clock tonight it was
announced that the national commits
sion had been appointed to deal with
the Federal league on the question or
peace. The question will be taken up
nv the commission at o'clock tonight
and it is expected that the tentative
agreement which has been reached will
be ratified.
The American league magnates were
in session by themselves. A little
later the American leaguers appeared
and the representatives of the F'ederals
and the minors were requested to with
draw while the chiefs of organized
baseball conferred. Present at this
conference were Messrs. Tener, John

Rupert, Lannin, Minor, Dreyfuss and
Attorney TOoIe.
An agreement was reached to ap-
prove the tentative peace plan entered
into between the National and Federal
leagues, thed raft of which was car
ried to the American league in session
at Chicago by Barney Dreyfuss.
The special committee appointed to
confer with the Federals then was
discharged and the details of peace
negotiations were turned over to the
national commission, composed of
Garry Herman. chairman, and Presi-
dents Johnson and Tener.
Meanwhile the Federal cohorts were
cooling their heels in a hallway of the
hotel which is the headquarters of the
baseball powers. After waiting some
time, they declared their intention of
going to dinner. They were still dining

WANT HARVARD
SWIMMING TANK
$4,000 Pool Proposed for Union-WiII
Be Great Convenience.


A $4,000 swimming pool in the Har-
ward Union for the use of the Har-
ward swimming team and the students
at large is proposed, and the $4,000
that remains as the basis of the gym
nasium fund that was raised three
years ago is suggested as the means
of providing the tank.
Swimming at Harvard has been han
dicapped for many years by the lack
of sizable tank at the university
The varsity and freshman swimming
teams of past years have used the
tank in the Cambridge Y. NJ. c. A.
but the inconvenience of going to
Central square for practice has injured
the prospects of the teams on many
occasions.
There are several small swimming
tanks at Harvard, which are conduct
ed by several of the Gold Coast dor
mitories. and are open only to the
occupants, but these are not avaiIa BILE
for the members of the swimming
team.
The Harvard Crimson has advanced
plan whereby the vacant space in
the Harvard Union building that was
recently vacated by the college daily
paper can be used for the installation
of a swimming tank. The gymnasium
that was proposed for Harvard three
years ago is too dim prospect to
save the $4,000 that was originally
raised for it among the students, the
Crimson says, and an excellent use
of it could be made by subscribing

TURKEY HAS PRODUCED
A NATIONAL HUMORIST
$3.50 s" r. ~
The khoia of Aqshehir Served As
Privileged Court Jester-Now a
Saint to People of His Town.
Especial to The Bulletin }


Washington, D. C. Dec. 1T.-"While
the arts and sciences have languished
under the Sultan'S rule: while the
technology of a thousand years age
is still widely employed in supplying
the wants of the Turkish populace;
while all social progress has been
left too largely to the unhurried care
of Fate, the Ottoman Empire has,
nevertheless, produced one creative
genius, the hhOja of Aqshehir. the
renowned humorist around whose
name all the fun of a nation has
gathered" begins a bulletin issued
today by the National Geographic
Society, which tells of the great man
born, nurtured, and buried in Aqshe-
hir five centuries ago. The bulletin
continues:
"Khoja Nasr ed-Din was an Imam,
sort of Mohammedan country par
son, n naive, iiliterate, happy-go-
lucky fellow, part clown, part gentle
philosopher, and altogether thorough
~ corlical and human. The reason of
the khojas existence was his legion
OF funny adventures. He was a re-
miss priest, a shifuess citizen and an
eX2sperating husband His native
town lies about 10 miles from KOnia,
in Asia Minor. and is situated pic
turesquely in the mountains Here is
his grave, where his body reposes and
the lock of his house, which he in
sisted upon taking with him.
The Khoja was a contemporary of
I Tamerlane's and served the conqueror
as a privileged court jester. Now the
khoja is a saint to people of his town
and his grave works miracles. The
stories told of the KhOia are with
out number: they are the humOr of
Turkey and the legacy of the Olden
fun master.
He was an evasive priest, and
sought fearfully TO escape his relig-
iOus duties, such as the preaching of
sermons. He dreamed the task of de-
livering a sermon, and won his first
fame in squirminG out of this duty.

SERV-US MIrJCE MEAT

Package condensed mince meat is
made up today of the best quality OF
dried fruit ard other items which can
be found. all Of which are found in
the United States with the exception
of spices and cuTrants. The study of
packing condensed mince meat has eN-
tended over a period OF 100 years and
today is as near its perfection as we
can possibly conceive. The sanitation
in the factories in which it is packed
is beyond repTOach as the competition
today in these lines ncCeSSitates the
guarding of the most minute detail of
the business. The apples used are Of
the best grade of New York state,
where in our opinion is grown the
best favored apple known. The
TaiSiES used are of the best quality
seeded variety. No expense is con-
sidered in procuring the very highest
grade OF spices. and sugar. as we all

dessert free from dirt. It is our
thorough belief that a mince meat pie
made from condensed mince meat is
about as cheap dessert as can be
prepared and Vet as good.
For many years mince meat was
considered a winter dish. Each year
for the last ten our factory has had
to increase its capacity during the
every day of the year with regular
force of helpers. We ship goods to
every part of the country the entire
year This of course means a great
increase in the use of these goods over
when mince meat was eaten only in
the winter months which means an in
creased sale over the former winter
consumption.
