SABIN ANNOUNCEMENT
CAUSES IRREGULARITY
Stock Market Becomes Uneasy at
Peace Talk.
CBy the international News service.)

(By the International News Service.)
New York, Oct. T.-Irregularity of the
stock market today was the natural re-
suit Of the announcement by President
Sabin, OF the Guaranty Trust Company,
that Ambassador Gerard is bearing a
peace message from the Kaiser. Why the
market responded to this announcement
50 quickly was disclosed by the weekly
bank statement. This statement showed
that the average surplus for the week
was reduced to s13.S40, ,130. Average loans
were Increased S9.s $50 900 and average de-
mand deposits were increased $135, 900. The
actual statement giving conditions at the
close Of business Friday night shows a
decrease in surplus OF S6,6S+09O, and an
increase in loans OF 81, 46s, 900, and an in
crease in demand deposits Of S11,9O3,OOO
This statement means, so far as any
one not in possession of the original fig
ures from which it Is made UP can inter
pret 1t, that there was heavy borrowing
by brokers toward the end of the week.
All Wall Street was not satisfied even
today that Mr.. Sabin was talking for mar
ket effect. The mysterious circumstances
OF Mr.. Sabin maintaining his position in
the face Of denial from President Wilson
and other government authorities caused
many a trader to sell his stocks. In fact,
Mr.. Sabin was the biggest factor in the
market today. He had more influence
than earnings. Wall Street felt that a
man in his high position. representing the
Morgans in one of the greatest trust COM
panies in the world, was in a position to
know even before the President OF the
United States the state secrets of Eu-
rope
Many traders acted on the theory that
Morgan 4 Co. had been requested by the
British government to prepare the public
for peace negotiations The CHIEF criti-
cism Of Mr.. Sabin was his theatrical
method Of making the announcement,
rather than the announcement itself
The most encouraging factor in the
market today was the strength of steel
and cotton and the continued heaviness
Of German Exchange. These things led
traders to believe that even if Ambassa-
dor Gerard does bring a message of peace
1t will be rejected. Therefore, pools that
could not get out anyhow without upset
ting the market made no attempt to light
en- their loads. This encouraged the gen.
eral traders, who had the market to
themselves.

ARCADE DRAWS CROWDS.
Dancing and Skating Features
Prove Popular.

The Arcade amusement center continues
to attract patrons in increasing numbers
and the MANAGEMENT is showing apprecia-
ton of the enthusiasm of its patrons by
making the dances longer and the encores
frequent.
The strict censoring OF dancing and eti-
quette has caused favorable comment, and
although the Auditorium is run for profit,
the management has not hesitated TO re-
fuse admission to any not living up TO the
high standard demanded.
For the afternoon skating sessions, the
automatic orchestrion, the unusually large
track, beautiful decorations, and the fine
ventilation should attract increa sing
crowds.

Brigadier General Crozier, chief OF

defensiyeness, had a heart-to-heart
talk with the house military commit.
tee Monday. General Crozier told the
members OF the committee some facts
as to the unpreparedness OF the coun-
try with respect to big guns. He
stated that our largest movable how
itEers were more than 80 per cent
lower In effective demollshing power
than the German 42-centimer gun.
which has battered down the most
powerful resisting forts Of the allied
powers. The Post has an idea that
when the committees OF congress
charged with the duty Of making pro-
vision for protecting this country
against possible aggression get through
listening TO the testimony Of expert
military and naval witnesses they will
know more about the country's needs
in this respect than they now know
