Republican A. P. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK, Nov 16.-(Wall street.. Operations on the stock exchange today were the smallest and in most essentials the least noteworthy of any full session for several months. Deal ings barely totalled 2S5,000 shares, latest restrictions of the exchange tending further to limit transactions to actual purchases and sales.
 Price changes were influenced to a considerable extent by negative condiI tiOns, rather than actual happenings. The more perplexing railroad situa- ton, the absence of definite advices from Russia and conflicting news from the Italian front combined to provoke fresh liquidation.
 Movements were narrow. however, except among rails and a few inactive specialties. Delaware and Hudson fell 93; Pennsylvania. Reading and other coalers as well as Pacifics and grang- CTS reacted one to two points and minor transportations were lower. group, were little affected by the re-

 Italian exchange was especially weak fires at S.60 approximately their great est discount, guilders also showing some depression.
 Call loans were easier, time rates remaining firm.
 Bonds were hesitant, with further heavy dealings in Liberty issues, the As falling from 99.4S to a fresh mini mum of 9S.74, while the 3 1as rose from 9S.6S to 99, a substantial advance over the fours.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW

NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-Dun's tomor- row will say:
 With the increasing restraints inn posed by war conditions and with the many uncertainties O. me period. busi- ness is handicapped in various ways and it's progress is necessarily check cred and irregular. Not through lack of confidence, but owing to the draw backs in production and distribution and also because of diminishin sup plies of materials and merchandise. some important transactions are be- ing held in abeyance, anG the diff culties of filling requirements are not caulculated to lessen with winter draw ing enarer and a still greater conges- ton in transportation foreshadowed It Is particularly unfortunate at a time when the manufacturing forces of the country should be running most smoothly to meet the extensive and growing war needs and the large de- mands from regular channels. that some plants have been obliged to shut down through inability to obtain fuel and that the works in many directions continue hindered by labor shortage and other obstacles. Where uninter- rupted operations are possible there are comparatively few instances where producers have not sufficient orders in hand to keep them actively occupied and it is not uncommon to hear of or dinary business being slrned aside to make room for the pressing wants of this government and it's allies.

GIVES THE MINERS
 PAST EXPERIENCE

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 As subscriber to your great paper, ask space in it for few words to express my opinion from a miner s standpoint in regard to the present eff fort to organize the miners of Alabama.
 An effort is being made to organize the miners of Alabama What for? They say to keep the miners at work. What an insult to the intelligence of the men they want to organize. Have they not been working, do they need some assistance to keep them at work? I think not. The miners have had peace for several years; they are just beginning to get over the last two strikes, with their bitter mem ories still lingering in their minds; mem- ories of traitors and starvation rations. What did the miners get? Deserted by their leaders they were left to shift for themselves, without the bare necessities of life, hundreds were forced to leave the state Now when the miners are doing well, enjoying peace and prosperity, they swoop down on us again.
 MT. Editor, can the miners never have peace? Is it their unhappy lot to con- stantly face dangers in the mine and dis sensions on the outside? Why all this? Is it necessary? I think not. At this time when our country is engaged in life and death struggle against Prussian mill itarism, when human liberty is threat ened to be wiped out of existence, the government needs our very best. A strike of only few days would be a calamity, tying up great industrial plants, therefore rendering our governments efforts futile. think the miners of Alabama will use common sense this time, after knowing what they had to go through with before, and let we'll enough alone.

Lessons Learned by Deep-Sea Divers
By Hop
From the Popular Science Monthly.

From the Popular Sclence Monthly.
 Experiments made by the British Ad- mirality and the United States Navy prove that deep-sea diving is feasible It has been found that the shorter the time a diver takes in getting to the bottom the better, because the (body absorbs less nitrogen. Also, the diver must have at least one and one-half cu- bic feet of air per minute at all depths. Lacing the legs of the divers suit in creases his stability and permits him to come to an erect position with ease It also lessens the danger of his falling or being suddenly blown to the surface.

Friel was a player for years. then a

aware of a few things he didn-t know

Its against the rules for a baseball
player to be fair with an umpire" Friel
explained. "A player doesn't want to

SPIES IN THE CALUMET INDUSTRIES.

If n American citizen were discovered IN a German munitions plant
with maps and plans in his possession and money order stubs and other
evidence O. guilt, doe anyone doubt what would be his fate? And if Uncle
Sam deals lightly or not at all with the German employe aresed last
week with discriminating documents at Indiana Harbor what will be the
result here?
II German spies in America find they can ply their trade here with
IMMUNITY how many more of them will spy II n report to headquarters
and how long will it be before some of our plants are blown up with hun
dreds OF workmen killed and manned?
The Calumet Record will not attempt to hold a drumhead court mar
tl in these columns. but it is felt that the case of the spy Kaufman, re-
ported last week. is a matter of the greatest moment and an evidence of
Imminent danger.
Thus the wal is brought close to home. The matter is not to be re-
garded lightly. Our four thousand miles of security hav been reduced
to zero. There are three hundred industries in the Calumet region listed
in this paper. Many OF them are making ia material and any and all
doubtless SAY much loss, misery and humiliation. The outcome of the
