FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
STABILITY OF MARKET TESTED By Apprehension Felt in Regard to
 Contents of German Note.

New York, May 5.-Seldom has the stock market been put to such a cru cial test of it's inherent stability as it experienced today, and seldom has it emerged with greater credit. Some of the features of the German note. on which the financial world has been waiting with increasing concern, were known to Wall street before the mar ket opened, and anxiety was evident in all quarters.
 Initial transactions showed losses of two to three points in many important stocks, while issues of a more mer- curial character showed greater reces- sions, Bethlehem Steel declining 19 points. For a brief time the"list seem- ed to be without support, except of a tentative character, but before the ex- piration of the first hour prices began to rebound sharply.
 The recovery was partly, if not wholly, the result of a calIner view ot the message from Berlin, particularly the terms of the instructions to sub- marine commanders. Opinion in Wal street was almost equally divided otherwise, but sentiment was hearten- ed by an indefnable impression that ar immediate break had been averted.
 Recovery halted at midday, as 2 natural consequence of an effort to as- simulate the large offerings of the fore. noon, but the forward movement made greater progress later under the Ieat or the shipping issues, United Fruit
 being the chief feature. That stool made an overnight gain of 1-2 point. 1 to 159 1-4, and an extreme advance o; F 1-4,' having fallen to s147 at the out. set.
 Mercantile Marines rivafled United
 Fruit, the preferred recording a maxi
 mum advance of ' 3-S at 87 3-8 ana
 the common 1-S at 25 1-8. Buying l of these shares was of the most inn pressive character, being attended b!
 rumors of a merger of the importan
 American shipping interests. Other strong features included U, s
 Steel, which recovered from it's min
 imum of 80 1-2 to S3, the Mexicans
 most of the munitions. including Cru
 ctble Steel. Baldwin Locomotive West i tnghouse and the distilling shares, es peclally U. s. Industrial Alcohol, Fina
 prices were at or near the highes level. Total sales amounted to S75, ,0O l shares.
 General news of the day, which en braced the probability that the threat
 ened strike of the New York Centra i telegraphers would be averted throug7 i mediation, was helpful to bullish senti | ment Further railway earnings show 1 ed material increases in gross and ne
 returns. Bonds were under pressur l at times but improved with the stocl !, list at the close. Total sales. par vaIlle aggregated $2,S70, 900.

The German government, moreover, is prepared to do it's utmost to confine operations of the war for the rest of its duration to the fighting forces of the belligerents, thereby also insuring freedom of the seas, principal upon lieves, now as before, that it is in agreement with the government of the United States.
 '"The German government, guided by this idea, notifies the government of the United States that German naval forces have received the follow ing order:
 New Order for Naval Warfare
 "In accordance with the general principles of visit and search and the destruction of merchant vessels rec ognized by international law such ves- sels. both within and without the area declared a naval war zone, shall not be sunk without warning and without saving human lives unless the ship at tempts to escape or offer resistance"
 Others Must Conform to Law
 But neutrals cannot expect Ger many forced to fight for existence, shall for the sake of neutral interests, restrict the use of an effective weapon if the enemy is permitted to continue to apply at will methods of warfare violating rules of international law. Such a demand would be incompati- ble with the character of neutrality, and the German government is con- vinced that the government of the United States does not think of mak- ing such demand. knowing that the government of the United States has repeatedly declared that it is deter mined to restore the principle of free 1 dom of the seas, from whatever quar- ter it has been violated
 Asks U. S. to Insist on British Cb- servance of Rules Accordingly the German govern- ment is confident that in consequence ] of the new German orders issued to the naval forces, the government of the United States will also now consid- CT all improvements which may have been in the way of mutual coopera- | tion toward restoration of the freedom | Of the seas during the war as suggest | ed in the note of July 23. 1915, and it does not doubt that the government l of the United States will now demand and insist that the British government | shall forthwith observe the rules of | international law universally recog- l niZed before the war, as are laid down | in the notes presented iby the gov ernment of the United States to the i British Government, Dec. 28. 1914, and Nov. 5, 1915.
 How Concession Are Qualified 1 Should steps taken by the govern
 ment of the United States not attain | the object it desires, to have the laws l of humanity followSd by all belliger-
 ant nations, the German government 1 would then be facing a new situation | which it must reserve to itself com
 plets liberty of decision.

Package condensed mince meat is made up today of the best quality of dried fruit and other items which call be found, all of which are found in the United States with the exception of spices and entrants. The study of packing condensed mince meat has ex- tended over a period of 100 years and today is as near it's perfection as we can possibly conceive. The sanitation n the factories in which it is packed is beyond reproach as the competition today in these lines necesSitaIeS the guarding or the most minute detail of the business. The apples used are Of the best grade of New York State, where in our opinion is grown the best favored apple known. The raisi.-5 used are of the best quality seeded variety. No expense is con- sidered in procuring the very highest grade of spices, and sugar, as we all know, is always sugar, the different grades merely representing the differ ent havors or different granulation re- quired for. different purposes. Every particle of fruit or any other article used in the manufacture of mince meat is thoroughly cleaned and hand-picked by people trained to know what should and should not be used and in this manner the article comes to the house. wife cleaner by far than she could possibly take the same articles in her own kitchen, regardless of how clean AL may De- anu EleAA6 up Iu6 TUT her mince pie. The old idea of dirt being prevalent in quantity is today disputed by the greatest authorities on food products. The meat used in mince meat is of the choicest and to- day the same corn-beeI which YOU and 1 would use on our table is what Is being used in Serv-us Mince Meat. There are very few pies made which can be used as handtly by the house. wife as mince meat for all it requires Is a little water and being heated for ten minutes and it is ready for the crust and then the table and she may without fear of loss carry three or four packages of mince meat in her pantry, having it ready at any time for the chance occurrence of unexpect- ed company and it will be a good dessert free from dirt It is our thorough belief that a mince meat Die made from condensed mince meat is about as cheap a dessert as can be prepared and yet as good.
 For many years mince meat was considered winter dish. Each year for the last ten our factory has had to increase its capacity during the summer months until today it runs every day of the year with d regular force of helpers. We ship goods to every part of the country the entire year. This of course means a great increase in the use of these goods over when mince meat was eaten only in the winter months which means an. in- creased sale over the former winter consumption.

GERMAN NOTE

of war material from the United States.
 Utmost Limit of Concessions
 "It will therfeore, be understood that the appeal made by the govern meht of the United States to senti- ments of humanity and principles of international law cannot, under the response from the German people which such an appeal otherwise always is certain to find here. If the German government, nevertheless, is resolved to go to the utmost limit of conces- sions, it has been guided not alone by the friendship connecting the two great nations for over 100 years. but also-by the thought of the great doom which threatens the entire civilized world should the cruel and sanguin- ary war be extended and prolonged.
 Readiness to Make Peace
 ''The German government, con- scious of Germans strength, twice within the last few months announced before the world it's readiness to make peace on a basis safeguarding Ger many's vital interests, thus indicating that it is not Germany's fault if peace is still withheld from tlae- nations of Europe. The German government feels all the more justified in declar- ing that responsibility could not be borne before the fornfn of mankind and in history if after 21 months of the wars duration the submarine question under discussion between the German government and the govern ment of the United States were to take a turn seriously threatening maintenance of peace between the two nations.
