United Fruit Weak.

United Fruit continued weak owing to
yesterdays announcement of a contem-
plated offer of sl2.OOO0oO of new STOCK to
shareholders. Much mystery is being
created about the source of the selling.
New York brokers declared today that
the selling originated in Boston. while
the Bostonians were eqhally emphatic
that the sales were being made by New
York interests. Irrespective of who did
the selling the stock declined IL points
to IA. which was Is 1-2 points under the
high figure of yesterday.
Railroad earnings were favorable with
the exception of those announced by the
Missouri, Kansas and Texas which for
October showed a gross decrease of
sls3,1S2 and a net decrease of 1S5.s13
Denver and Rio Grande announced a
gross gain of s2H. .SS5 and a net increase
Of $l6o.2o6. while the 500 reported a
gain in gross of si5l,7s2 and an expan-
sion in net of S345, 7O2.

Message Is Published.

New York. Dec. 4.-The rally in the
stock market which began early Friday
continued throughout the short session
today. Practically all departments of the
list displayed strength and closed with
net gains. The copper shares and indus
trial specialties were conspicuous for
their strength. Railroad shares were firm
but they are expected to do better this
week following publication of the Presi-
dents message. some of the principal
Sfeatures of which brokers claimed to
have in their possession today.
Opens Steady with Small Gains.
The market opened steady with frac-
tional gains. Trading was quiet but the
better tone prevailed throughout the first
hour. In the second hour the buying
became more aggressive, and quotations
closed near the best. Independent steel
shares attracted attention for their
strength. Utah and Inspiration were
prominent in the copper group Owing
TO the talk of peace that persists several
commission houses were advising CUSTOM
ers today to switch from the war stocks
to the standard issues which are not
especially dependent upon war or war

RED GUIDE

w. B. Frum. of Parkers burg.
is in Keystone and neighbor-
ing towns representing the
National Rating League and per-
fectlng an organization among
business men for the collection
OF their over due accounts. The
methods employed by this organ
lzatlon are fast becoming recog-
nized by business men as sound
principles, and just what are
needed for their protection.
The National Rating League is
making q credit rating for the
Tublic generally. the same as
the commercial agencies have
done with the business men of
the country for years. By this
method business men will be en-
abled to know the people who
ray their accounts. those who
are slow and those who don't
Jay at all. When compiled. all
patrons of the league will be sup
piled with a copy OF the rating
nook. In this way merchants,
in fact AL business men in this
section. will ne enabled to keep
very close tab on those who are
not entitled to credit. Thus it
will be necessary for this class
of debtors 70 pay up their old
accounts before they can get
credit from any member of the
Rating League The work OF the
[ eague will be benefit TO every
honest purchaser. as well as TO
the business men and the sub
scribers to newspapers.
Mr.. Frum has &c subscribers
already in Keystone.

Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence
Elizabethtown, Feb. 27.-Dr. S. r.
Nissley celebrated his I'D birthday an
niversary on Thursday. He is a native
of Hummelstown and served as surgeon
in cavalry regiment during the Civil
war. He organized John McGood Post
No. 502, G. A. r., thirty years ago and
has been its commander for twenty
eight years. The membership of the
Post at one time had reached sixty y-six
comrades, while to-day it has but few.
The principal cause of the loss of com
rades was Occasioned by death.
Mrs. j. Paul Nissley, Miss Mary
Fox and Mrs. Fegley, of Hummelstown,
were the guests of DR.. and Mrs. S. B.
Nissley, on South Market street, on
Thursday. During their stay here they
were driven to the Masonic Home by
}. Harvey Buch, where they were chap
eroned by one of the affable guides of
the institution through the main build.
