new YORK STOCK MARKET
Shares Make General, Though Not
Complete Recovery, From
Recent Heaviness.
READING Is ACTIVE FEATURE

New York, June 2O.--Stocks made gen.
eral though not complete recovery today
from their heaviness Of the preceding ses-
sion. The trading element seemed less con-
cerned about affairs in Mexico and prices
were actually at their best Immediately
after publication Of the State departments
note to the Mexican government.
Dealings were broader, but smaller In
the aggregate, with a liberal admixture Of
short covering. Reading was the active
feature most OF the time, with Mexican
Petroleum. Rock Island, Crucible Steel and
Mercantile Marine preferred following more
or less as named. Rock Islands activity
was accompanied by rumors OF an approach
ing agreement on the terms OF capital re-
adjustment but the stock lost ground later
on indications of further delay.
Mexicans as group regained to .
points. Reading almost two points, the
prominent motors were better by to 7
points and shipping shares " to 3. With
the exception of U. g. Fruit which bore
signs Of further substantial accumula-
tion thsse advances were largely effected
In the realizing movement Of the Anal
hour.
War shares were variably higher. for a
time, particularly, the equipments. but these
too proved susceptible with realizing with
coppers and zinc shares Such inactive
issues as American Tobacco Sears Roe
buck. Kaiser and Woolworth responded to
light buying based on favorable trade re-
ports.
Total sales of stocks amounted to 445-
900 shares.
a Dealers In exchange accepted the strength
Iof francs and the heavinesa Of marks as a
direct reflection Of recent happenings In the
foreign war. Sterling showed slight re-
cesson and another installment OF gold
from Canada brought the total receipts of
that metal from the Dominion up to slight
ly more than Ss5,000,000
Bonds were again under pressure, some
speculative Issues scoring slight reversals.
Total sales par value S2,s80.000
United States as declined Y per cent on
call with Panama issues unchanged.

for long tiVe back. At the same time
advices from other selling points were un-
favorable. 80 that the market as q whole
was slow and very late in opening The
tendency Of prices was generally lower even
on good kinds. In fact, the general market
might best be described as slow to lOc
lower than yesterday. This would apply to
all kinds Of killers. cows and heifers. as
well as beef steers.
Stockers and feeders were In such light
supply that the market on desirable kinds
at least was steady.

the big bulk Of the offerings, moved In
good season at steady to strong prices

very encouraging, and on this account local
buyers were a little backward on first
rounds. but the market got going In good sea-

GUARDSMAH CANE
TO BENNINGTON
TO Be MARRIED
Arrived on Night Before the Fourth
and Had Trying Experience
COULDN'T FIND TOWN CLERK
Ceremony Performed at St. Peters
Parish House Followed by Gus
tomary Rice and Confetti Shower.

Monday evening a six-foot khaki-clad
New York state national guardsman
who, it developed later, had been grant
ed a leave of absence from Camp Beck
man for one Of the most important
events in a mans life, arrived in Ben
nington on the $50 train He was ac-
companied by pretty young woman
who could easily walk under the big
guardsman's arm. Neither one Of the
pair had ever visited Bennington; the
important Journey had been arranged
on the spur of a moment and the sol
dier's leave Of absence was short. 1t
was necessary that he return TO camp
on the following day and there was
much to DO before the sun should rise
on the Glorious Fourth,
Between 9 and 10 o'clock the couple,
having tried in vain to locate Town
Clerk y. A. Booth, arrived at the
Cooked Hat tea house on Main street.
Here they found a sympathetic citizen
from their home state who had come
with his wife to Bennington by auto
mobile and were stopping at the house
| for the night. The big guardsman un-
| burdened himself. There was immedi-
ate interest on the part OF everyone
| present. Mr. sympathetic Citizen and
Mrs. Citizeness and a young woman
from the tea house hustled the couple
into the automobile after having To-
Gated the town clerk by telephone.
At the town clerks Office no difficult
ty was experienced in securing the
necessary document but in the mean
| time the sSylarkers ON the street had
become wise to the situation, having
learned that light in the town clerks
Office late In the evening usually has
| but one meaning. There was a rusu-
| ing for old shoes. rice and confetti.
The shoes were tied to the doors Of the
| car and rice and confetti were thrown
into the tonncau.
Not satisfied with decorating the car
| the roiterers followed the couple to
st. Peters church and formed double
! line on each side Of the long walk
| leading to the parish house When
the couple and their witnesses reap
peared they were compelled TO walk
the gauntlet of rice and confetti, the
young woman from the tea house who
| had kindly volunteered to act as wit
ness receiving her share of the shower.
To Rev. G. J. Sturgis, who performed
the ceremony, the big guardsman gave
the name OF Edmund Stillman Hazel
