trenches. ribbons Of barbed wire be-
hind them and bit Of shell-torn
waste called 'No Mans Land" had
isolated section of the French peo-
pie from their country al effectually
as If they had been suddenly trans
planted to another hemisphere. He
told how In Voyenes women, children
and old men lived and toiled for the
invaders in utter ignorance of what
was ~oing on in the world about them,
just as other thousands still shut with
in the German lines are living, toilinS
and wondering today. They were told
long ago that their beautiful Paris
was to fall within a week and would
be pillaged and burned.
Later they were told Paris Is dead
and the Germans added insult to in

New York, May 25.-United States
Steel common stock sold at the highest
price in its history on the Stock Ex-
change shortly after noon yesterday,
touching 1919. The previous maximum
was 1908. made Wednesday and equalled
in the great boom of last November.
Steel's elevation to a new level was
attended by such enthusiasm on the part
of traders, although some Of that ele-
ment for a long time opposed the adj
vance. The new price was, in fact, ef-
fected largely at the expense of the
short interest. Steel's rise was marked
by the customary large overturns in
that stock.
Other steel and iron stocks and the
several groups of equipments and NUM-
tons were at highest levels of the year,
though for the most part well under
top prices of the two preceding years.
Rails were irregular, on the new low rec
ords OF 325s for New Haven and the at
