FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET FLUCTUATED.
Bear Traders Found Their Efforts Less
 Productive.

New York, Sept 1s.-Afte- a re- newed heaviness the stock market stiff fened today and losses were largely cancelled. The selling movement ap-
 peared to have been checked for the
 time. but toward the close pressure
 was again exerted. In some cases
 further declines were recorded, al
 though the list in general held up fair
 ley well. ~r---.--7-5
 Fetal sales were 665,0 900 shares.
 In the course of the decline a num-
 Der of stocks reached new low points for the movement, and in t.e cases of a few industrialS the setback was se-
 were. Some of the standard invest
 ment issues developed heavipess, bat l1for the most part these stocks were
 fairly steady, and bear traders found
 that their best efforts were less pro-
 ductive tIEn heretofore in bringing on liquidation. Although there was no indication of an awakening demand of any consequential improvement in the ma rket's position, the increased resist ance to pressure by the list as whole source of uneasiness to the shorts, whose covering was large ly responsible for the recovery effect ed from the early break.
 The whole movement apparently rep phases of a highly professional mar ket, signifying no change in the bear ish sentiment of the street. There was one favorable development, however, wh1ch was an lnnuent1al Iactor Tn the recovery of stocks. It was a decid- edly easier tone in money, with call funds 4oaning under three per cent. An nouncement also was made that 9 con- bIe amount of time money had been put out in connection with the . forts of the newly organized commit tee to supervise and control the New York money market.
 Among the new low records were 90 IA for Bethlehem Steel B, 14S 5-S for Canadian Pacific showing loss of 4 points: 95 for Delaware and Hudson and AT 1-2 for Midvale. Many stocks were depressed one to three points on the early decline. A feature of the | afternoon was the improved support l 'or steels and coppers.

We would like to know why Taftville does not send us our share of the money as they agreed. Is Taftville holding out be- cause they doubt the word of the Bal tic committee or through poor sports mansh1p?

By PETER F. CARNEY
Editor National Sports Syndicate


 When the National Amateur Cham pionship event was called in the Grand American Trapshooting tournament held recently at the South Shore Country club in Chicago, H., the word came down the line in the usual mys- terious manner to keep your eyes on Larson, of Wisconsin"
 Larson had broken 99 clays to win the championship of his home state, and in those parts he has the reputa- ton of being some shooter" We watched Larson, as advised, and mo- ticed that he shot well, but that sev = eral others did better. We gave the scoreboard the once over the next day to ascertain what MT. Larson was do- ing in the Chicago Overture, and couldn't locate him. He had gotten off at the wrong station on the way to the shooting grounds, and his squad shot without him. That left him out of that event.
 There was only one event left in which Larson might distinguish him Handicap. It was tbis event in which Larson picked to do his best shooting. He went out on the first day with 79 in S0 and just as soon as his score was tention to him. The fact that he was shooting from 20 yards indicated that he was worthy. In his final 20 targets Larson missed one target and Mark Arie, of Thomasboro, H., who also had 79 in so. dropped one, that there was a tie for the Grand American Handicap at 9S. Arie was shooting from g yards-the back mark
 Arie had been sweeping everything before him all week and had done his best shooting from p yards. Quite naturally there were many who liked his chances foi. victory. But there was that same mysterious voice around to tell you: Keep your eyes on. Lar

have a terrific batting wallop.
 Tn my opinion" Griffith concluded Chicago has a slight advantage in Cicotte. No team can hit his shine ball the first time it goes up against it, or the second time for that matter Perritt is likely to prove McGraw's s best pitcher. We have the best south paws of the game in the American League and Chicago this year has been exceptionally successful against them Schupp. Benton and Sallee should not cut so much of a figure against the White SoX as they would against any other Of our clubs"

TO CUT COST OF DELIVERY

Ida Tarbe says it costs the merchants OF the United
States $50O0OO0 yearly to deliver merchandise to Gus
toners She points out that by the merchants agreeing
and sticking to it. to make but one delivery day. the
larger part of this cost would be eliminated and besides
thousands of men would be set at liberty to do something
else This latter feature she lays stress upon than
on the actual saving, needed In all lines.
There no reason why this system should not be adopted
especially in the smaller cities All required to make 1t
workable is the and assistance OF the women Tor
they do practically all the ordering both from merchant
and grocer What's the matter with Salem giving 1t a
try and doing it first? 1t should be remembered though
that if one merchant adopts this system all will have to
do So for there those patrons who being accustomed
to having goods delivered at any old time will get hut1y
if this is not done and either all merchants Will have to
stand together would the loss OF trade OF this
class who would transfer their patronage to some one
who made deliveries at all hours.
In some of the cities it is estimated the cost OF delivery
runs from eight to rs cents each and often amounts to
more than the price of the article delivered few cities
have stamped this real evil out. Ann Arbor, Michigan,
has for eight years had the delivery day system
The result is that where 70 delivery wagons were used
formerly now there but 49, In cities too few
cooperative deliveries have been installed at great
ing At first it would undoubtedly be annoying to the
housewife who has been all her life accustomed to having
her purchases sent home at whatever hour she desred
but this would soon wear off and thought be given it
after little while when the order had been In use
long enough that the ordering for the day be made all at
once had become habit.

sky announces that it is definitely
proved that their propaganda is fin
anced by the Hun government.
Of course that couldn't be true in
this country, for the "Peoples Coun-
cil' is backed by David Starr Jordan
Amos Pinchot and the rest of that
bunch cf long haired men whose other
propaganda was the conscription of
all incomes of over 100000, and whose
plans were indorsed by the Corvallis
Home Guard last April.
Another thing that this outfit de-
mands is that America state her war
aims. That is bright idea, but it is
not original. 1t was first demanded
by the Fatherland" Hun magazine
published in New York. Before that,
the same idea was conveyed in the
famous question which the witness
asked the lawyer. The lawyer insisted
that the witness answer all questions
with eyes" or "no" The witness
said it couldn't be done. The lawyer
insisted that it could. So the witness
asked the lawyer this question: "Have
you quit beating your wife," To say
yes would imply that he had formerly
been in the habit of administering
corporal punishment to the partner of
his sorrows and to say emo" would
convict him of continuing to do So
And so this bunch of buccaneers wants
to try to commit this government to
some kind of statement concerning
what it proposes to stand for in the
way of peace terms. They care not
at all, except that it will furnish them
with more thunder wherewith to
oppose the war.

with this outfit of pettifoggers or any
body else who advocates ''no in
