 WEEKLY FINANCIAL REVIEW
 NEW YORK, Spt. 15.-The general
 trend of the stock market in the last
 week was toward a lower level, al-
 though there were occasional rallies
 which, in one instance, amounted to a
 vigorous recovery. Al noticeable feat
 ure of the trading was the absence of
 sustained demand on the rise, and even
 substantially lower quotations for
 standard stocks failed to attract an in
 quiry large enough to give the market , a material accession of strength. Liquidation was carried further, re-
 sulting in a falling away of prices to points which in some instances were the lowest in years. Notwithstanding the rapidity of the decline at times, however, the market was held in hand, and good support was offered when needed to prevent too great extension of losses among established invest ment issues. The downward movement was fur thered by free speculative selling, and traders found no difficulty in uncover ing weak points. Some of the war stocks and other speculative favorites
 proved extremely vulnerable to such pressure and gave way rapidly until the decline was checked by overselling The weeks irregularity was attrib- uted primarily to the continued ob- scurity of the outlook. The troubled internal situation in Russia was per haps the most unsettling of the imme- diate factors

The wheat crop is very import
ant crop during any ordinary season;
but the 1918 crop will be of unusual
importance. There never was a time
when it was more necessary TO look
after the minute details of produc-
ton than at the present time. There
is great need for every pound of
wheat that can be grown next year;
besides q splendid price is now as
surcd for it. 1t should be the aim
of every farmer to make his next
crop just as large as seed, soil. eli
mate, and his own labor and best
judgment are able to produce.

ARE YOU RELATED
TO GOULD FAMILY?

Probate Judge +. w. Brazelle OF
st. Paul, Mimi, has in his possession
for safe keeping $4,000 belonging, il
is believed, TO some Vermont person.
Miss Nellie G. Gould, so years old,
Of St. Paul, Mimi, LIFT an estate Of
$4,000. The administrator Of the es-
tate is searching for an heir to the
property.
Miss Gould was born in Vermont,
but il is not known where. When she
was year old her parents, Henry and
Nellie Gould, moved TO River Falls,
Wis. At that point, nearly all traces
Of the family are lost, but it is believ
ed that Miss Gould's father was dead

WINS SUIT AGAINST
KING GEORGE

Alexander Dunnett, Of st. Johns
bury, has received word that the suit
he brought in the Canadian courts to
recover damages for the loss Of his
automobile two years ago has been de-
cided in his favor. The court awarded
him judgmen. for $3.50 and costs.
It will be remembered that the au-
tomobile was hit by an express train
on the Quebec Central railroad while
Mr.. Dunnett was touring Canada on a
fishing trip.
Approaching the grade crossing the
highway was obstructed by a track
mems handcar and in attempting TO
20 around IL Mr.. Dunnett's car became
stalled on the crossing and before II
could be removed was struck and bad
ly demolished by an express train.
Mr.. Dunnctt claimed that in obstruct-
ing the highway the trackmen made
the road liable and it is evident that
the court was Of the same opinion.
The suit hes attracted considerable
attention and comment just at this
time as according 10 the forms Of such
legal procedure it had to be brought
directly against the Crown and the
writ, therefore named his royal high
ness, King George v. as the defend
ant in the case although the suit was
ia reality against the railroad com
pany.

NORWICH STUDENTS READY
Nearly All of Them Would Serve
Their Country in War

Their country IN war
Norwich University is probably th'
first institution in the United States
to offer his facilities to the govern
ment for the training Of officers il
event Of war after the break viii
Germany came. Immediately follow
ing the canceling of diplomatic rela'
tions, the president Of the university
wired the acknowledgement, offering
every facility of the institution to the
government in event Of war. This
wire was later followed by letter
and due acknowledgement has been
received by the university authorities.
There has probably been less out
ward demonstration Of activity in
preparation for war at Norwich Uni
versity than in any other institution,
for the simple reason that all the
cadets lead military life and are
constantly under training. Their
mental attitude is much more likely
to be that of a soldier who simply
awaits orders without any manifesto
ton of concern. Norwich University
is cavalry unit of the United States
reserve officers training corps and
will no doubt be called upon to sup
ply officers for cavalry regiments.
The cadets are not legally bound for
service, but it is known that practical
ly every man in the institution of
legal age and physical qualifications is
ready to respond.
Norwich University is making
canvass of its alumni and past cadets
to determine the availability for SER
vice in event of war. A committee of
the faculty is tabulating the returns,
giving age, physical condition, and
special publications.. From tabula
tions already in, it is safe to estimate
that Norwich University could at this
time efficiently officer between $4,000
and 10000 men. A large number of
trained Norwich men available would
be particularly we'll equipped as Off
GERS of engineers, signal service, field
and cavalry.
Everybody conversant with military
matters knows that the spirit of the
