PETROGRAD, Russia, December 90
The soviet's decree that each military
unit has the right to elect its COM
manders. has materially affected Mos
cow. where. upon a general order sign
ed by the commanding officers of the
Moscow district, all the military units
have held elections.
Many of the units are now command
ed by soldiers chosen by their COM
rades, but the soldiers also decided that
many of the colonies and generals COM
manding regiments and brigades should
retain their positions. The officers re-
lieved of their commands were immedi-
ately sent to the front without loss of
rank.
1t was provided by the soviet that the
soldiers should be permitted to fix the
salaries of the commanding officers.
This caused much agitation in Moscow,
where the local soviet is seeking to re-
duce the officers to the same material
conditions as the soldiers. This would
mean salary for each officer of but S

STOCKS AGAIN RALLY
AFTER A WEAK OPENING

NEW YORK, December 21.-Immedi-
ately after the opening the stock mar
ket started on it's familiar way toward
lower prices. One of the reasons given
for the weakness, after the strong
closing Of Thursday, was found in the
reports concerning the next fotation
Of liberty bonds. or bonds to bear some
other designation. the statement being
made that ss.O00,ooo,000 bearing u
per cent interest would be marketed
in March.
The loss in stocks ranged from
point to 3 points, and then the recov-
cry was just as marked as was the
change from weakness to strength on
Thursday.
Secretary McAdoo denied in toto the
entire story of the eight-billion financ-
ing operation, and the market lmme-
diately showed its relief that the n
per cent rate predicted would not ma
terialize.
Losses Recovered Quickly.
Quickly the losses were recovered and
stocks moved up sharply to the best
prices of the day and held them well
into the second hour of the afternoon.
That the market responded so sharply
to the denial of the rumor and after
the development in connection with de-
auctions for losses decisions by the
revenue bureau showed a really better
undertone than the market has evil
denced for some time.
Wall street is anxious that this ruling
shall be made general so that every one
may take advantage of its generous
provisions in the matter of writing off
losses. whether stocks have been sold
or not-that is, the trade contaminated
or the stocks still held
The early weakness was through the
rails and industrials. the later strength
likewise.
Net Gains in Rails.
At the low, Steel common was off to
S11a, H loss; on the recovery 1t
touched "a. Mercantile Marine was off
to Tx and came back to 1914 Indus
trial Alcohol sold to 107, recovering to
1857; Texas Oil from loss of 2N
turned net gain of 31s.
The rails. with the exception of Great
Northern, came back for reasonable net
gains the general being covered by "

Liberty bonds were easier. 3zs SELL
