The following analysis OF the New
York market situation was received
late yesterday afternoon by W. B.
Hibbs & Co, from S. B. Chaplin 4
Co, their New York correspondents:
The market was strong during the
early trading with most Of the rail-
road stocks then in good demand and
making a further rise on expecta-
tions OF an early decision from the
Interstate Commerce Commission on
the proposed Is per cent increase in
freight rates scheduled to go into
effect from July !.

additional gold from Ottawa making
the total amount received here from
there the last 10 days. S97, 200, 900, slim
ulated general sentiment considerab bly,.
But just when 1t looked as though
the market might broaden out with
a fresh advance in the industrial list.
heavy selling of Studebaker developed
with that stock subsequently breaking
over s points to the new low record
since easily in 1915 of 75Is.
''On the whole the days develop
ments were simply regarded in usually
the best informed quarters as show
ing the narrow and professional trad
ing position Of the market at present,
and the probability that such condi-
tions will continue until after the
government bond payments and the
heavy July disbursements have been
financed and the money situation has
eased up sufficiently to encourage re-
newed aggressive bullish activity"

ACTIVITY ON FLANDERS FRONT
SUCCESSES REPORTED BY BRIT

Violent Artillery Dueis Continue Along
Aisne Front-Russian Troops on
Offensive in chotin Region.

London, Aug. 9.-Flanders, where
the big guns have been booming in
cessantly since raiS stopped the Allied
offensive last week, again has been
the scene of infantry fighting, but only
on small scale.
Near the coast the British have sue
cessfully raided German lines near
Lombaartzyde. Berlin describes this
operation as an attack in force which
it says the Germans beat off in hand
to hand fighting: The Teutons also
record the repulse of local British at.
tacks in the Bixschoote region between
Dixmude and Ypres.
Crown Prince Quiet.
Along the Aisne front and on the
right bank of the Mouse, northwest OF
Verdun, violent artillery activity con-
tinues on both sides. The German
Crown Prince has not followed up his
attacks on the Aisne front where he
was repulsed east of Vauxaillon and
west of the California plateau.
Russian troops are on the offensive
in the Chotin region on the Russo.
Galician border, northeast of Czerno'
WITT, and have withstood successfully
Austro-German thrusts in the region
of Brody, in Galicia, northeast of Lem
berg. The Russian forward movement
west of Chotin resulted in the capture
of two villages and height. The.
Austro-Germans lost 800 prisoners and
four machine guns.

100000 MEN TO JOIN COLORS AT

Will Bring Strength Of Army up to

Camps at Once.

Washington, Aug. 9.-More than
100000 men of the selective draft
forces will be called to the colors
September 1, to go Immediately to
their divisional training cantonments.
This will bring the strength of the
United States army on that date up
to practically 100000 men.
Brigadier General Crowder, proves:
marshal general, dispatched the fol.
lowing telegram to the governors of
the states yesterday morning caution
ing them to make certain that the first
one-third of their quota Of the first
increment of registered men is ready
in time:
New regulations governing mobili-
zation and the certification of men
from district boards to adjutant gen.
erals will be mailed you August 9. In
the meantime, local boards should GER
tify to district boards daily those who
have been called and who have not
been exempted or discharged either
because they failed to file any claim
or because their claim has been de.
cided adversely.
Crowder Urges Speed.
Strict compliance with this rule is
necessary since on September 1 the
War department will call for not to
exceed one-third of the quota from
each state to be entrained for mobili-
cation camps between September 1
and September 5. Unless we wish to
