Large RaiI Orders Placed.

Railroads are a greater factor in the
steel trade today than at any time with
in the past four or hve weeks, in the
opinion Of New York brokers' Contracts
for 10000 tons more Of rails have been
placed In the West, including 1000 tons
for the Great Northern; 5000 tons for
tne Northern Pacific; 5000 for the Union
Pacific. and 5000 for the Illinois Central
AL for shipment during the last quar-
ter OF 1913 or the first quarter of 1919.
Practically all Of these rails Will be rolled
BY the Illinois Steel Company mills at
Gary and South Chicago. More export
inquiries are In the market, including
1000 tons for South America. The largest
inquiries are coming from Brazil and
feru. These prospective export orders
are receiving scant attention. Demand
for track supplies IL increasing. and sew
ersl additional large orders have been
placed for late 1918 shipment.

New York Market.

Ihe 1oHoWing weekly review OF the
New York market situation was received
late yesterday afternoon by w. B. Hibbs
Co from a New York correspondent
The sharp rise In the stock market
since Wednesday morning has been
mostly due to the forced covering Of the
short interests which proved far more
extensive than had been supposed, and
also to resumption Of good buying sup
port encouraged BY a number of fav-
orable developments stimulating more
confidence IN the stability of the general
market than for some time past
Among these favorable features in ad-
dition TO the remarkable statement of
record breaking earnings by the United
States Steel Corporation and the action
taken by the directors at their meeting
Tuesday afternoon declaring an extra
dividend Of . per cent on the common
stock In addition to the regular rate Of
IA per cent for the quarter have been
the tentative announcement by the
United States Treasury department that
the first issue OF government bonds win
not be over 9, 900 ooo. 900, also that the
plan OF making the personal income tax
and the larger corporation tax retroac-
tive had been dropped by the ways and
means committee, with the amount to
be raised by this method for war pur-
poses this year reduced from the Treas
ury Departments estimates Of 8. so7 ooo,-
600 to 1850, 10000.
There was a good deal Of profit TAX
ing by professional traders on the rise
yesterday and more liquidation devel-
oped today. Consequently the market
has not held up 30 we'll this afternoon
with the covering movement from the
shorts having subsidized, and renewed ap-
prehension, developing over the Russian
situation.
While a decidedly better feeling pre-
walls in local financial circles as among
the banking interests throughout the
country from the recent uneasiness. IL
seems advisable that bulllsh enthusiasm
should be held In restraint until some
OF the great problems still being dis
cussed in Washington from our exten-
sive activity in the war have been salts
factorily arranged. Moreover prices
have had such a sharp recovery from
the low levels Of early in the week and
the markets technical speculative posi-
tion has been weakened by so much Of
the short interest having been driven
in during the last few days. Il would be
well to await more reassuring condi-
tions before taking on stocks again too
freely"

Germany to offer terms Of peace that
would be acceptable to the United
States and its allies.
Charles Edward Russell brought out
the effect Of this work Of the pro-
Germans at home in another way In
his article recently. when he said that
a stiff resistance against the Ger
mans could not be expected in Russia
unless the Russian people were thor
oughly convinced that America was in
this war to travel the distance.
The English language is Inadequate
to express the utter contempt of right
minded patriotic Americans for these
treacherous copperheads whom We are
ashamed to call our countrymen. The
government cannot get busy too soon
to clean them out.

In its efforts to make good soldiers
out of the boys now entering the army
the United States government says IN
q bulletin recently issued:
"Cheerfulness Is always promi-
nent trait of good soldiers. hero
again Americans may be counted up
on to make q splendid showing even
in the face of any unexpected hard
ships or difficulties that may De
ahead Of us. There are numerous
episodes in American military his
tory to justify this confidence.
Yes, American history Is full Of In
cidents justifylng tho belief that the
American soldier will make a splendid
showing, because Of his cheerful dis
position. He comes from ancestry
for the most part, that was cheerfut
under great yicissitudes. for surely
our forefathers had many tribulat1olas
and remained cheerful throughout.
Our boys are going to take whatever
comes to them. and make the most OF
it, when they get to the battle field.
They are not going to murmur Or
complain. They ore going into the
service to do their part, and they VIII
do their part. and they will remain
cheerful through It all. II there Is
any. debit about It, ask some OF the
old fellows who served In the Civil

Nv Fla>-An Answer.

Sir: Enclosed please find little
verse which was written in answer TO
n piece in the paper in which an !.
w. w. referred to the flag as dirty
rag" Perhaps the sentiment OF 1t may
make up for whatever faults of COM
position it may contain.
Is il for yonder tattered rag, slow
floating in the sky,
That women weep. and children starve,
and mothers sons must die?
rs II for this that we toll in sweat,
And shed our blood till the earth Is wet
For only a square of red and blue
That bodies rot in the morning dew
Where graves are many, but flowers
are few.
And cannons gloat Ger the men they
slew?
Not for the flag, with its stars and
bands,
But the truth and hope for which It
stands;
Not for the wave of its silken folds.
But the pledge of freedom which 1t
holds.
For the love Of home. for the love Of
right,
For the love of peace, for the hate Of
might:
| For the gift of sleep when the day is
done,
Sleep in the land which our fathers
won.
! So hail to the flag of the tyrants' woe.
LOYAL to friend and deadly to foe,
/ Flag, of the many and not OF the few
Honbr this flag, for this flag means
you
