STOCKS OPENED FIRM;
GAINS ARE Cancelled

NEW YORK, November 15.-With
the immediate opening the market
showed a better brand of strength
than for some days, probably due to
the feeling that with gradually less
ened taxation, as outlined by Secre-
tary McAdoo. corporate dividends
would be assured. and even extras
also. This feeling resulted in sharp
recoveries in Steel common, Baldwin
Locomotive, Marine preferred, and
also in Mexican Petroleum.
The rails did not give much re-
Spouse to the bettered condition In

.9 MORE SUfFS
 ARE ARRESTED
 AT WASHINGTON
Released on Bail, Stage Sec ond Demonstration and
 Rearrested.

Washington, Aug. 14.-rwenty nine women were arrested by the police in Lafayette Square, opposite the White House late today when a third at tempt was made to stage a woman's party demonstration there against senate's delay in acting on the federal suffrage amendment.
 After being taken to police head quarters where they were released on their own recognizance, the women returned to La Fayette square for an- other demonstration.
 Soon after the speaker started for the second time, the police intervened again, but not in sufficient force to stop the demonstration.
 Additional officers soon arrived and 29 of the demonstrators were placed under arrest.
 Taken to police headquarters, again, the women refused to give bail and told the police if released they would stage another demonstration.
 Police officials then decided to hold the women until the streets were cleared of the evening crowds.
 The women were released late to- night. .01Rl

HUDOLES1ON WINS OVER OBJECTION
 BY PRES. WILSON
Alabama Congressman Gets More Votes Than Both
 His Opponents.

Birmingham. Ala. Aug. l4.-Con 'gressman George Huddleston had a majority of 1922 over both his oppon- ents for congressman from the Ninth Alabama district tonight. Ninety-two out of Ill boxes had been received showing the following:
 Rev. A. J. Dickinson, 1877; Huddles- ton, 5.493; Fred M. Jackson. 2.193.
 Last Friday President Wilson sent a telegram to Birmingham in which he said Mr. Huddleston was in every way an opponent of the administration" That this did not have the expected ef- feet, however. was shown by the fact that at hig mass meeting in Besse- mer Friday night resolutions were adopted indorsing President Wilson. his administration. and Congressman HuddlestOn.
 Huddleston's easy victory was at tributed more than anything else to the inability of the opposition to de- eide upon one man to make the race against him.
 The vote was relatively light, more than 5000 men from the district being in the the army.

With the French Army in France, August. II. (Reuters.) - French forces fighting for the key positions of Thiescourt massif and the St. Cluade and Econville farms, are pro- gressing slowly North of Gury, where the Germans are installed in hte old French trenches of 1914, they ahve gained no ground. The enemy here in luck moment tumbled into ready-made fortified positions.
 As the enemy retreats he is picking up his slow moving material and is accommodating an increasing number of guns and quantities of munitions. The French in advancing have tended 0 toutstrip their artillery and there are no tanks to assist the infantry.
 The French are advancing against the line which is thinly held but which is bristling with machine guns. and are fighting in the atmosphere fighting in the atmosphere or mustard gas, Yet they have wrested domi- nant positions on the battlefield from the enemy.

Doubt ''GaS Attack on Coast
 Guard war Made by U-BOat
No Official Report of Investigation Made by Navy De- partment-One Vessel Is Sunk Near
 New York Harbo1.

Washington, Aug. l4,-Although final reports of the investigation into the ''gas attack" on Smiths Hand, North Carolina, last Saturday, have not reached the navy department, there were strong intimat: ons today that the "gas" was not from a Ger man submarine as first reported. No explanation of the incident, how ever, has been offered and none prob- ably will be until complete informa- tion is at hand.
 It is understood there is reason to believe that no submarine was in the vicinity of the island at the time SIX men in the coast guard station and lighthouse were reported to have been overcome. The theory that submarine had discharged gas laden oil on those waters never was accept ed by naval experts and fishermen living in that vicinity have insisted thaat no submarine could have ap- preached close enough to the island to discharge eas that would have re- mained effective until the oil carry ing it had drifted in with the tide.
 The only reports of further opera ticns by the raiders no win American waters reaching the navy department today gave additional information re- oarding the torpedoing of the oil tank seamer Frederick R. Kellogg. Seven men of the crew who are miss ing are believed to have gone down with the ship, which sank in five minu- tes.
