ABOUT THOSE VEHICLE TICKETS.
Superintendent Gregory Explains Mis-.


To correct a misunderstanding that
has become spread thru the T.-R. and
by other sources regarding the admis-
sion price for vehicles to the county
fair. George Gregory. superintendent of
gates and police of the fair association,
in whose department is the manage
ment of vehicles in the grounds, makes
an explanation. The rule of the fair
association regarding vehicles, is that
the owner of each vehicle must pay rs
cents to get his auto or buggy into the
fair grounds.
But, and 1t was here the T.-R. mis-
understood, there Is no second charge
for the vehicle to get across the race
track into the circle inside. But the
payment of this admission charge does
not entitle the one who pays to any
other privilege than to bring his car
in the grounds.
But if the owner Of the vehicle. or
its occupants, want to cross the track
in their vehicle into the circle to get
close up to the track and stage and
thus enjoy close up privileges for
which grand stand seat charge Is
made, then each person must pay 25
cents, the price Of a grand stand ticket.
Having paid this charge they may
then leave their car and go into the
grand stand without any additional
charge. Gregory's men. in insisting on
these points. were carrying out the
rules Of the fair association.

FINE RECORD FOR TRAIN

FThe famous Empire State Express of the New York Central, the first regular long distance train in Ameri- ca to run at more than fifty miles an hour, including stops, has begun it's twenty fifth year. It has covered 9 distance of 6.51S.600 miles, equal to fourteen round trips to the moon, and has carried approximately s million passengers safely to their destination.
 The record during these twenty four years has been a remarkable one. Not one of it's passengers has been fatally injured. One of it's en- ginemen for sixteen years was Den his !. Cassin, who last year was awarded the Hartman bronze medal in recognition of his unblemished record of safety.
 Wnen the Empire state Express was first placed in service it weighed only 23O tons: now it weighs 7S0 tons. IL was drawn by engines Of the "S70" class. and later by the famous t999', the locomotive that took the prize at the Chicago Worlds Fair Nowadays that loco- motive looks like a toy in compari- son with the giant Pacific type, and it could hardly start the train. much less haul il on it's fast schedule.

FINANCES and MARKETS
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

NEW YORK, Nov. 19.-Wan treet)-For the extreme inertia which overlook yesterdays trading DO explanation was Vouchsafed other than that the market had gone stale'
 Total dealings of 5SG,00O shares were the smallest of any full session in about two months.
 News of the day was mostly con- servative or favorable, ranging from additional encouraging trade advices to huge gains in bank clearings and another advance in domestic ster- ling to the highest rates attained since the early part of October. Francs also hardened perceptibly, but the international monetary situation as a whCle was materially strenptb- ened by the completion Of all details connected with the new supplement tarN credits. The rise in exchange had the effect, moreover, of curtail- ing foreign offerings of our securities
 Price changes at the opening were more irregular than usual. although railway shares again were in fair demand at moderate. gains. Other issues denoted aeaviness war shares and coppers, as well as United States Steel being under pressure. which was increased later. Temporary im- proVement was noted at midday, mainly as result of a spirited rise in general motors, which rose 1 points to 435, a new record, while Texas company gained 13 to 194. to the accompaniment of another ad. vance in its products
 In the afternoon quoted values fell away gradually, the railway list yielding all it's advantage, while specialties and coppers receded to levels materially under yesterdays close There was no sale of BethIe- hem Steel until almost at the end, when several small lots changed hands between 4771a and .4S6, closing at the latter price, a net gain of one point. General Motors declined to 421, net loss of 10, while Stude- baker and Baldwin Locomotive were among the other weak war stocks.
 On the known movement of local cash, tomorrow's bank statement is expected to show a cash gain of $1O,O00,OOO to S15,O0OOOO with the loan item in doubt.
