STOCK TRADING OF WEEK
Revival of Movement in Sugar,
Leather and Paper Issues, Touch
ing New High Levels, Noted.

NEW YORK. October z8.-The fea-
ture Of the financial week. apart from
the completion Of details for the new
sational movements in cotton and food
stuffs, was the sudden prominence and
strength Of medium and low priced
rails.
Some Of these issues in which gains
ranged from to almost Is points,
represent properties still under re-
ownership or in process Of reorgani-
zation.
From the character of the trading 1t
was evident that the rise in these
stocks had its origin in speculative
that many of these properties have
great potential values. particularly
Rock Island. control Of which. 1t is ex-
pected. will soon be restored to the
stockholders.
Coppers Also Prominent.
There was also a revival of the
movement in sugar. leather and paper
issues. most Of which assembled to new
high levels as a result of favorable
trade conditions.
Coppers also came in for further at
tention. Utah leading that group on
reports o. an extra" dividend Of large
proportions.
United States Steel reflected the ag-
gressions of a confident short interest
after its rise In the early week to a
new maximum. The statement of the
steel corporation for a third quarter
will be issued next Tuesday. and 1t is
accepted as all but an accomplished
fact that earnings for that period will
establish new record.
Standard Rails Backward.
1t is also believed that another "ex-
ira" dividend will be declared on Steel
common, and in conservative quarters
it is predicted the disbursement will be
in excess of the per cent of three
months ago.
Standard rails failed to make more
than moderate response to further ex-
cellent statements Of earnings, but
coalers were in demand at marked
gains.
The several shipping issues, particu-
larly Atlantic. Gulf and West Indies,
were strong, also on prospects of re-
turns to shareholders.

BY I. A. FLEMING.

Resident holders of Mergenthaler
Linotype Company shares are making
an effort to secure the payment by the
directors of the corporation of an extra
per cent dividend before the end of
the current calendar year.
Up to two years ago the per cent
extra was considered as a matter of
fact, and the announcement by the COM
pany that the loss of foreign business,
due to the war, would necessitate the
brought vigorous protests. especially
from Washington stockholders.
A very strong movement started here
resulted in representation to the d.
rectors that the extra dividend was
expected, needed and would be looked
for. personal explanation being made to
the directors as the result of a meeting
held here.
The directors yielded and paid the ex-

among Mergenthaler shareholders re-
Questfng the restoration of the extra
payment, and are being very generally
signed by the shareholders of the cor

of two years ago may be repeated.
There Is no way Of estimating the

STUDENTS
AND HUNTING LAW
Non-rcsidcnts May Hunt Under State
Licenses After Having Been In
Virginia for Six Months.
AN IMPORTANT DECISION
Niolators of Game Law Must Pay In
As Part OF Costs at Time Fine Is
Imposed the Amount of Fee Allowed
by Law to the Informant.

College students in Virginia from
other states, who have been residing
here for six months next preceding
their application for hunters licenses.
may seek game under a State or
county license. according to the opin-
ion rendered yesterday by Attorney
General John Garland Pollard. I'M
der the game law persons whose
homes are outside of Virginia are re-
CURED to take out the non-residents
license at $40 in order to hunt in the
State. and game wardens of the coun-
ties surrounding Charlottesville asked
dered on application from Charlottes-
Vile to show the status of students
at the University of Virginia.
In his opinion. Mr.. Pollard stated
that while the homes OF numerous
students at the university were out
of the State II they have been in at
tendance there for a period of six
months they are eligible to hunt un-
der the State or county licenses. 1t
Is expressly stated in the game law
that a person must be resident of
the State for six months next pre-
ceding the date of his application for
hunters license. and Mr.. Pollard
rules that the attendance Of non-resi-
dent students at the university for
that period puts them under the
classification of resident.
Mr.. Pollard also ruled yesterday
that persons convicted under the game
law would be required to pay the fee
given the person leading to the arrest
as part of the costs. Under the game
law all parties reporting violators Of
the statute, which results In convic-
ton. are entitled to fee. It has
been contended that such fee should
not be paid by the violator in addition
to his fine and regular court costs
but should come out of the county
or city treasury. Mr.. Pollard decided
that the fee must be paid by the per-
son convicted. in addition to the fine
and court costs. and be considered a
part of the latter.
