uatio1s IN the price OF options on the
exchange. On Saturday 4 sensational
advance took place in September op-
tons which rose within few minutes
from .u3C 10 $40 and then quickly
droL ped back to $500. No tangible rea
son appeared TO exist for such an err
ratio movement and holders Of actual
sugars either withdrew their offerings
pending further developments, or ad-
vaDCed their ideas on Cubas from

the next few days moderate sales

cline in option prices made further

Small sales OF Cubas aflOat at 13-16C
were followed by small sales June

The British commission has been in
the market quite steadily throughout
the week for moderate quantities Of
Gubas for June and July shipment and

from 4.60C to 4.6lC f o. b. Cuba. A
moderate business has also been done
with European buyers in graduated

of this business has not been published
the sales made within the past ten
days are estimated at $4,000 to 40, 900
tons at prices ranging from 6.50c to
$500 in bond.
The domestic demand for refined
has been quite light During the week
Arbuckle Bros. reduced their quota
tons from $500 to SC less 2 per cent,
but the lower price failed to attract
any considerable new business. The
Pennsylvania Sugar Co. reduced prices
temporarily to 7.5ec less per cent,

According to local banker it is now
about an even chance hat a message
ordering the payment of money by a

is explained by the fact that all
money orders usually contain a test"
word which is absolutely necessary to
protect against fraudulent payments.
Why some are passed and others
thrown out is hard to answer but, &C
cording to the banker, it is probably
due to the pl cling OF men in charge

John F. Haley. collector Of internal
revenue, today called attention to the
fact that just 10 days remain in which
corporations, individuals and With

Formerly, said Haley, these taxes
were due on June 80, but now the date
stands at June Is. Though there has
been a splendid response to the call
for tax money since the declaration Of
war, a few-probably 20O-are still

The normal working of seniority,

would make Representative Campbell.

mittee under Republican control. Mr.
Campbell is an old line organization
man, but under this plan he is TO be
sacrificed. The floor leadership of the
majority party in the House has always
been vested in the chairman Of the
Ways and Means Committee. So strong
is this precedent that Claude Kitchin
was made floor leader, to succeed Oscar
W. Underwood when Mr. Underwood
became q Senator, despite the fact that
the White House was opposed to him
and despite Mr.. Kitchin's well known
opposition TO most Of the Wilson poll

Under the rule Of seniority Joseph

floor leader should the Republicans con
troll the House. Mr. Fordney regrets
bitterly that Cannon is not running the

been framed, so far as any member OF
the House knows, that is high enough

WAGNER HAILED
AS NEXT MAYOR
State Senator Steals Thun-
der at Dinner to Honor
Samuel Gompers

State Senator Robert F. Wagner was
introduced as "the next Mayor OF New
York" last night at dinner given 70
Samuel Gompers at the Central opera
House. at 2O5 East Sixty-seventh Street.
II was the fftieth anniversary Of Mr..
Gompers's entrance into labor actlyi-
ties. his golden wedding anniversary
and his sixty-seventh birthday.
District Attorney Swami, who has
been considered one of the most prom
inent candidates for the Tammany
mavoralty nomination, applauded cor
dially at the characterization of Mr..
Wagner.
Il would not be surprised il be were
next Mayor of New York." was the
way Robert P. Brundell, the toastmas-
ter, put it when he introduced Senator
Wagner.
Cheers followed the statement, and
when Mr.. Wagner arose TO speak ne
had TO wait for an admirer who called
for three more cheers for "the next
Mayor"
"They say it is always safe for a
man TO say that he is not a candidate,
was the only reference Mr.. Wagner
made TO the toastmaster's speech, ex-
cept TO express wish that the vote
could be taken then and there. He
declared that a city administration
should have something better 10 do
than to prove that a workingman could
liya on % cents day.
District Attorney Swami was intro
duced as the man who is under
charges for alleged overzealousness on
behalf Of organized labor" He said
that Mr.. Gompers had been an inspira-

ton to him from boyhood. a statement
whi3 had been made By Mr.. Wagner
as well.
Only 1850 of Mr.. Gompers's admirers
could get into the hall, so the at
tendance was limited TO that number.
There was an outbreak Of cheering
when the sturdy veteran, his face
beamng, entered the room arm in arm
with Mrs. Gompers. When Mr.. Com
pers took his seat red, white and blue
electric bulbs twinkled into light above
his chair and spelled the words Fifty
Years Service 10 Humanity" Then
there were more cheers. When they
had subsidized the diners sang "Our
Grand Old Man." written for the oc-
casion.
Others on the speakers list were
Alton B. Parker and active labor lead
srs, such as Hugh Frayne, Frank Nor
rison, Warren B. Stone and John
Mitchell.
Coroner Timothy Healy was there,
not because he is coroner. but because
he is president OF the union OF station
airy engineers and fremen. He made
speech for the same reason. Robert L.
Brindell was POSTMASTER.
Mr. Gompers's father, ninety-two
years old and blind, sat a table near his
SON. Mrs. Gompers sat beside her hus-
band. Twenty-seven relatives OF Mr.
Gompers were at the dinner and TWEEN
~ Of them bore his name.
