TRADING IN STOCKS.
Things a Man Must Know to Be Sue.
cessful Speeulator.

"All those who are trading in the
stock market might well ask themselves
whether they are spectators or gam
blers," says John X. Barnes in the
Worlds Work. ANY one can gamble
in stocks, but it is not profitable. 1t
takes high degree Of specialized
knowledge and training to speculate.
Here are some OF the complex require
ments of technical knowledge that are
indispensable to the successful specula-
tor:
"He should know how to read the
business barometers. Among these are
the bank clearings throughout the coun-
try, which show the rapidity with which
money Is changing hands through the
banks, and thus gives the best measure
we have Of the business doing; the un-
filed orders on the books Of the United
States Steel corporation, our largest In
dustrial company, which are reported
ten days after the close of each month;
railroad gross earnings, which are now
reported weekly by some roads and
monthly by all, and railroad net earn
ings, which show the prosperity in that
important fleld the production figures
for coal, iron, copper, etc; the export
and import figures, which control our
international credit position and have
been of great Importance since the war
began; money rates and the elements
that affect them-gold imports, foreign
loans, etc, and probably, above all, he
should watch carefully the crop pros
poets throughout the country.
"unless man understands the mean
ings of these things and has very
special and unusual temperament be
sides he can never succeed as n spec
ulator."
In other words, the average man has
no chance In the speculative markets.

number of killed or wounded in the
two days of disorder there is esti
mated at about 500 An extraordi-
nary cabinet council was yesterday
discussing the proposal to transfer
the seat of the provisional govern

A dispatch from Petrograd yester
day said that the government now
controlled the city as completely as
the Bolsheviki appeared to control it
on Tuesday. Since early Wednesday
morning Cossacks and mounted
troops have patroled the streets and
all thoroughfares are guarded by in
fantry. AS an additional precaution,
the Troitski bridge, which leads most
directly to the factory district and
the Nicholas bridge, connecting with
the Vasiliostrov district, where origi-
mated much of the disorder of the
recent days, were held by troops.
The remaining bridge, leading to the
business section, also was under
heavy guard and only those possess
ing proper credentials were permit
ted to cross it.
Particular attention was given to
automobiles All over the city they
were subjected to scrutiny and any
suspects were arrested. One automo-
bile early Wednesday attempted to
dodge the patrols. 1t was caught and
found to be occupied by persons who
were distributing anarchistic hand
bills. The occupants showed fight
and were beaten soundly by Cossacks
and then taken into custody.

Oscar Pratt, local painter, who
threw small hammer through the

house building and requested that he
be locked up. 1t is reported that the
man had been drinking recently and
Judging from his own remarks was
in a rage over troubles at home. By

crossed the street, threw the ham
mer and then proceeded to the court
house. He Is now in jail.
The only person in the store at the
time the hammer came crashing
through the window was John F.
Meagher. Mr.. Meagher came to the
front of the building and made brief
inspection of the damage. He did not
see Pratt throw the hammer.
A good-sized hole near the center
of the window was made by the ham
mer which fell inside the store.

A soil which supplies abundant nu-

field or town they are frequently quite

IGNORES CITIZENSHIP HERE
New Russian Government Denies
Right to Change Allegiance

Washington, July 19.-Russians
who have taken out citizenship papers
in the United States are still being
considered as Russian citizens by the
new Petrograd government, unless
they have obtained the consent of the
Russian government to their change
OF allegiance.
The state department has been in.
formed that the Russian provisional
government holds to the same prin-
ciple upheld by the government of the
empire, that it is necessary for Rus
sian to obtain the consent of his gov
ernment before he can discard his al
legiance. At the same time, a diplo-
matte dispatch from Petrograd adds,
it may be safe for American citizens
of Russian birth to visit Russia with
out running undue risks, as it is nee
essary for such persons to be de-
nounced to the Russian authorities
before action is taken against them,
and 1t is considered unlikely that such
denunciations will take place in the
present circumstances.

Redfield Tells Senate

Washington, July 19.-ln response
to Senator Brandegee's resolution
calling for an explanation of the cen

establish quotas for the forthcoming

submitted a report to the senate

 Many towns during the sugar shortage would only sell twenty-five cents worth to a customer. Any person found buying more than this by buying at different stores blacklisted by all for sugar.

 This telegram was received after the store had placed an order for second car of su- gar.
 The store also received letter in regard to using rolled oats in bread. The letter stated that there was a move on foot by the government to compel commercial bakers to use rolled oats or some other product in the manufacture of bread. As result Rolled Oats factories are deluged with inquiries and will not book business further ahead than 60 days.

MAKE GOOD USE OF PALACES Royal Residences :1 Europe Have Been Converted Into Hospitals for
 Wounded Soldiers

The necessities of war have trans. formed the uses of the royal palaces of Europe. They are nearly ali turned into hospitals. Such are the Winter palace on the Neva, the Kremlin at Moscow, Tsarskoe Selo and Livadia, and in Italy not only the Quirinal and Queen Margheri- ta's palace in the Via Veneta, but the queen is directing a military hospital in a wing of the Vatican.
 Not only have Verona and Monza been put at the disposal of the war office, but the pope has done the same with Castel Gandolfo.
 The Elysee palace is given over to war work, and Buckingham palace is not a hospital simply. because there is no need for it, so the king and queen use it largely to receive sol- diers and to entertain the wounded. The palaces at Berlin and else where in Germany are all turned into military hospitals, and the Ger mans have devoted King Albert's palace at Brussels to the same use The English turned the kaisers stately pleasure palace, the Achillei- on, on the Ionian Island of Corfu, n Greece, to. tie same purpose for the benefit of the Serbian army.
 The wife of Ferdinand has made part of his palace at Sofia into a military hospital, but the Austrian invaders of Montenegro used the pal ace at Cefinje as barracks.

GOOD ADVICE FOR FOREIGNERS

The Copper Era has received the follow ing which is translation of editorial gently appearing in La Revista Ilustrado, a publication in the Spanish language at Santa Fe, New Mexico, which regard timely advice to Mexicans and other foreigners re siding along the border. The article follows:
 We are informed through reliable sour ces. that the enemies of this country at work along this border trying to incite the citizens of the republic of Mexico to violence in doing damage to the property of the eiti- zens of this country. Sometimes these men are Germans, and sometimes they Mexicans in the pay of Germany, and sometimes claiming to belong to that outlaw order, the Industrial Workers of the World, but they are always calling upon the foreigners within our gates to do damage to the people who have given ; them refuge and protection, living. when they had no other place to go to save their lives from the bandits of their own coun- try.
 We do not believe that very many of the race will so disgrace the blood of the conquer ors of the new world as to listen to these mics of all mankind, and injure the hand which has protected them, but may, and upon those who do disgrace their their manhood and their nation to attempt the things which may injure people ill this war; we. the Spanish Americans of New Mex- co. will be the first to demand that the most severe punishment possible under the laws of the United States be visited upon them.
