Ko1niIOff'S Punishment Moot Point.

Washington, Sept. f4.-General Korniloff's punishment seems one of the points concerned in the formation of a new cabinet. Unofficial reports reaching here today indicated that Premier Kerensky was determined to inf1ict heavy penalty as a warning against future uprisings, but certain elements of the constitutional demo- crats, and even many leaders of the council of workmen's and soldiers delegates.
 Kerensky's closest political friends, advocate leniency.
 It is considered probable that one early move of the new government may be to disestablish the Duma which has given some evidence of fla voring return to the monarchy and has opposed many democratic re- forms of the revolution.

HEAVY BUYING IS
 WALL ST. FEATURE
Demand for Stock Causes Sharp
 Upward Movement

Wall Street-An active demand for stocks caused a sharp upturn early to- day. The low level reached and the selling movement of the last few days brought in buying orders in consider able volume. The strength of the market and the initial transactions resulted in an urgent inquiry for the shorts and the opening gains were ex- tended rapidly. U. S. Steel opened 1O7 3-4 to 1OS IA, a maximum gain of a point. Advances of 1 to 2 points were made in steels, coppers, general motors, Reading, Delaware and Hud- son and tobacco products. Texas com pany and Borrett gained points.
 Technical conditions were fla >rable for rise, as the market gave ,dica- tions of being speculatively stronger. The iquidating movement in invest ment shares and popular specialties having been checked, operations for the long account were conducted ag- excessively and early gains were ex- tended. The turn for the better in the Russian situation, which caused rise in rubles to 16 cents, compared with the recent low level of II F and indications of outside buying were the primary stimulating influences Bonds were firm.
 Commission house buying was in greatly increased volume today and there were signs that speculative pools were again at work. Ira ding was quieter after midday but individual shares made further notable headway upwards. Liberty bonds advanced to par again.
 Closing-Selling orders predom- i,, f,,o ha arQl realizing set in. Bethlehem Steel and U. S. Steel reacted sharply, and some other stocks lost a good deal of their early gains. The market closed easy. Sales approximated 46O,OOO shares.
