BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Oct. 19.--In its essen tial aspects today's market was rep itition of Tuesdays session, the entire list losing ground in the final hour. after having registered numerous sub stantial advances. The setback was attributed to cables from London an- nouncing the loss of a British trans Atlantic liner by a mine in the Eng fish channel.
 Increased scope and stability ac- con panied the trading of the fore noon and mid-session, minor indus trials being less prominent. albeit their places were taken to an unwont- ei extent by lower priced. non-divi- dend rails. Shipping stocks also aug nented recent gains. but these were abruptly wiped out in the liquidation Of the later period. Motor issues gave promise of assuming some of their former independence, that division at is best scoring advances of two to Eve points
 Equipments and distinctive war shares were firm to strong, General Electric being foremost in it's advance of almost five points. the rise result ing from rumors of impending devel- oDments favorable to shareholders.
 Paper issues were less active but mainly higher.
 United States Steel was strong, it's extreme gain of 2$ to 116A repre- senting the maximum quotations since the reversal caused almost a fortnight ago by Germany's submarine activi- ties off the New England coast. Total sales 1,340,O00 shares

The senior member of the firm, man about town. passes smiling dances at the handsome widow who is fattered by his attention and who resolves t0 marry him for his money if the oppor- tunitv arises.
 The younger sister is not mercenarv. Althonph the junior partner. a clean cut earnest young man. shows his re- pard. the fact that she does not love him is sufficient to disniss him frnr; mind as her future hrsband. When s"a refuses to marry him. hnr sister TO- monstrates with her for missin- a chance tn become the wife of a rich man. and when the senior partner tells the widow to call at his house that evening. to take dictation. she does SO after telling the younger girl that if he Dronoses to her she certainly will not reject him.
 Several hours pass and she does not return. Her sister, believing the senior partner to be cruel. dishon- orable man. goes to his home. There she finds him dead on the library floor. while standing over him dazed and hysterical. the fatal dagger in her hand. is the widow.
 How the younger girl throws suspi- .cion upon herself because of the others child. how she eludes the long arm of the law. is apprehended and finally proved innocent. forms one of the most thrilling detective stories ever shown on the screen.

or so in Saturdays encounter between
Harvard and Yale, when he had visions
of becoming az notorious as the erswhile
Sammy White Had Brown escaped
Harte's tackle he would have made a
touchdown and Princeton would have
won.
Walter Holke, the Giants first base
man, is the top place batter of the Ma
tional league. The official average just
compiled by John Heydler, shows that.
However, Hal Chase, the Reds first
baseman will be considered the champion
of the wood, and he should, as he played
in TAT games to Holke's 81. Lew Me-
Carthy and Dave Robertson of the Giants
are the other 800 hitters in the New
York camp Robertson and Cy Williams
of the Cubs are the home run kings of
the league, each with twelve. The foot
notes, one of Heydler's latest wrinkles,
chronicle the interesting fact that Grit
fifth of the Cincinnati club has played
through two seasons without missing a
game, 3l5 in succession.

BETTER MARKING OF VERMONT
HIGHWAYS.

The Burlington Clipper comes out for
better highway signs in Vermont and
suggests that the main thoroughfares
might be "blazed" by painting band
on telephone or telegraph poles. This is
along the plan adopted in New Hamp-
shire, where the White mountain route,
etc, are picked out by the motor tour
list in case he cannot guess by the condi-
tion OF the highway. Motorists find this
method OF marking the highway partic
ularly helpful and they look for the dis
tinctive color OF the route which they
wish to follow. The idea might be taken
up in Vermont as far as the main high
ways are concerned. However, the need
of instructions to strangers is not alone
on the main thoroughfares. A large
number of motorists find their way to
the less Travelled roads for some reason
or other and they are apt to become
more perplexed there than on the main
highways; and hence there Is great need
for the highway signs of the usual type.
There are still some distrists in Vermont
where a person must travel for miles
