NEW YORK eTock MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All
the Leading Stocks

New York. July 13.-Concerted sell
ing of special stocks, particularly those
issued which suffered, most severely in
last weeks liquidating movement. was
the conspicuous feature of today's pro-
fessional market. The short interest
emboldened by its recent success con-
fidence, but made little headway, ex-
cept in isolated instances.
Representative shares, notably the
better known rails and United States
Steel again withstood pressure, albeit
Steel was forced down to SO 7-s, its
lowest quotation since last weeks rise
to 81 IA. Shipping stocks and Mexi-
cans together with motors and the
coppers also fell away in the fore
noon, but made gradual recovery in
part or whole later.
United States Industrial Alcohol
proved to be the storm center, record
ing an extreme decline Of 12 3-s points
to 90 1-2 in the last hour and closing
with net loss Of 10 rs points. There
again lack OF news to explain the
continuous break in Alcohol. which
represented a loss Of over 80 points in
weeks time and a total Of 20 points
from its top price Of last April
Increased Willys-Overland dividends
from to IL per cent. with an extra
stock dividend Of 10 per cent. was not
announced until the fag end Of the
session. The stock closed at a loss of
? IA points. the action Of the direc-
tors having evidently been discounted.
Pacific was the only rails to exhibi,
marked strength. Canadian Pacific be-
ing in demand with its subsidiaries,
500" and Wisconsin Central. Union
Pacific was firm on revival Of the IA
miliar rumor Of an increased dividend
at the next quarterly meeting. Total
sales amounted to 56s.00o shares.
The prosperous condition Of the in
dependent steel manufacturers was
seen in the second quarterly statement
OF the Lackawanna Steel Co., showing
a net gain Of almost $4,000, 900 over the
same quarter Of 1915.
Bonds were again inclined to ease.
with further extensive offerings OF
Anglo French SIS. Total sales (par
value) aggregated s3,3o0.000.
United States bonds were un-
changed on cali.

As yet there has been no apprehension
regarding infantile paralysis in this city.
The health officers are alive to the fact
that 1t may be brought here and are ad-
vising parents to take the best possible
care of their children and not neglect for
a moment anything that seems to be the
matter with them which causes them to
show fever. as in nearly every case this Is
the way the disease starts. Cleanliness
and care are necessary to guard against
it and the people In this section are hop
ing there will be no cases here, as so
far Waterville has been exempt.

The large. crowd that gathered on
Wednesday afternoon to hear the trial
Of Peter La Price, the local wrestler,
who was in court on the charge of as
sault upon his wife, was disappointed
as he waived hearing, pleaded guilty
and was fined the costs, amounting to
s12.44, which was promptly paid, and
what promised to be sensational case
was quickly over. 1t is understood that
Mrs. LaPrice has served papers for
divorce upon him and he has announc-
ed that he will not contest the case.

The committee which has In charge
the alterations at the Central Maine
Fair grounds is to visit the grounds on
Thursday morning and at that time
will lay out the work to be done there
and will doubtless soon call for bids
for the tearing down and removing Of
the old cattle sheds and the building Of
the new ones which will be erected on
the same side as the horse sheds max
ing much more compact place for the
fair and making easier for visitor to
see the whole Of the exhibition. The
new ground for the cattle sheds Is also
more level and drier and in every way
better. 1t is expected that new build
, ing for housing the poultry will be con-
structed so that this important ele-
ment Of the fair will not be neglected.

ing forward to some good weather now
as there is every need Of it for their crops
and especially for haying. Some Of them
have already started and have been hav-

their hay without getting it wet. Others
remembering the experience of last year,
when those who started early got in their
hay without trouble. are planning on be-
ginning Monday and they are securing The

and teams In the city are planning on
taking advantage Of the high wages Of

LOWELL OF HARVARD URGES
PEACE BY FORCE OF ARMS

maintaining an appropriate military
force, and ct some risk to ourselves.
II these be not unduly great? Both
the military force and the risk would,
II Is believed, be decidedly. less than
would be .entailed by proper pro-
vision for the defence OF the country
II no such league existed. But that
depends Of course, upon what the
proposed league would be, and what
It 10 expected to do" y
Vital Point
Most people wha have thought
long upon the problem Of maintain.
Ing peace over the earth have come
TO the conclusion that the great DIM
Guilty lies In finding some sanction.
that IL some effective means Of en-.
forcing the obligations assumed-in
this case the obligation not to take
up arms before submitting the ques-
ton in dispute to a tribunal or coun-
Gil. The vital point, therefore, In
the plan for q league adopted at
Philadelphia Ia the method Of enforce
ing peace. The third article provides
that:
The signatory powers shall Jointly
use forthwith both their economic
and military forces against any one
OF their number that goes to war, or
commits acts Of hostility, against an
other OF the signatories before any
question arising shall be submitted
as provided in the foregoing" 3
NO sanction can have the effect
desired unless It 10 strong enough to
deter those who are tempted to- dis
regard 1t; and nNthis case there IN no
use In providing for wider sanetions
TO be followed BY Others more seyere
IN case the hrst prove insufiielent,
because wars nowadays come sud
denly and when war has once begun
the harm 10 done and practically can
not be undone. Punishment "A n
deterrent from private crime IA ex-
pressly prescribed by law In order
that 1t may be certain. The criminal
law does not provide that when a man
intends to commit murder the gov
eminent shall threaten him with
three months imprisonment and m
this is not effective II shall mako a
more severe threat up to capital
punishment II necessary: nor does II
provide that the public authorities
shall consult about penalty neces-
sary to deter the man from his pur-
pose. OF course. the analogy be-
tween the security for order within
q state and the preservation Of In
ternational peace is imperfect. and
may be misleading. but there are
points Of resemblance, valuable for
Illustration. Of which this Is one.
Conference Objectionable.
