NEW YORK STOCK MARKET
Features Of the Days Dealings in Az
the Leading Stocks

New York, Sept. ia wave OF sell
ing in which high grade railroads and
industries figured conspicuously
brought about a sharp and general de-
cline in stocks today. Many issues
went under the low points of the re-
cent set-backs and in some instances
the lowest prices in a number Of years
were reached Trading increased sub
stantially, the total sales amounting to
s11 900.
Although there was no outstanding
feature of the situation to account for
the weakness displayed by the mar
ket. the disturbances in Russia play
ed a considerable part in shaping SEN
timent The Petrograd cables were
followed closely in the street and trad
ers hesitated to make commitments
on the long side under the present UNI
settled conditions. Russian bonds suf-
fered further relapse and the rate
for rubles was depressed abruptly to
new low record at II ID cents, COM
pared with about SO in normal times
There was late recovery to IA IA.
Bear traders operated confidently,
meeting with little opposition most Of
the day. Greater significance, how
ever. was attached to the selling Of
conservative investment issues which
ordinarily are not associated with
speculative maneuvres. The lack of
support for such stocks as these and
the extent of their declines on COM
paratively small offerings undermined
the market after steady opening and
prompted more general selling. The
movement gathered momentum in the
afternoon. but the low level finally
reached brought out an increased de-
mand. In the last hour the list re-
bounded sharply, regaining con-
| siderable amount Of the ground lost

Few Feet Are Perfect

How many bones in your feet? Most likely you don't know. Few people do, and 1t is usually a surprise to learn that there are so many and that the foot is about the most complicated and delicately constructed part of the body. That is, perhaps, the reason why at least 75 per cent of all adults have some kind of foot trouble.

As appears from the table, France, Italy, Russia and Belgium were self supporting, while the United Kingdom drew it's entire sugar supply from eX- terior sources. The supply of the Unit ed Kingdom came to the amount of about 70 per cent from countries from which it is now cut off by the war. Ten per cent came from the East h. dies and 20 per cent from the United States and the West Indies.
 The prospective 1918 crop in France has diminished to 207,000 tons and that of Italy to 75,00O tons, and they are therefore short 590 000 tons.
