HEAVY SELLING
IN new YORK
Stock Market Reacts to Let
ter Of Roger W.
Babson.
Bx nRoApAN WALL.

New York. July 2z.-Roger w. Bah
son succeeded in bringing about a
heavy selling movement I'm the stock
market today. He advised everybody
to take advantage Of the enthusiasm
caused by the good war news and
take profits on all industrial and cop
per stocks. He named q list OF stocks
to be sold and as he has at times been
correct In his market forecasts his
surprising advice was followed by
many houses. 49,
As the stocks named by Babson
were the leading issues. the free SELL
ing caused by his letter gave a false
impression that something was wrong.
So the effect was the same as IL a
raid had been intended Confidence
was disturbed and the list suffered
during the entire session.
War News Eneearasias.
News from the battle front was
encouraging to all real Americans,
and instead of causing them to sell
it inspired them with a desire to
prove to the men at the front that
the good people at home are stand
ing firm In their absence. Hum
dreds OF thousands OF soldiers have
their fortunes tied up in the Stock
Market, directly and indirectly, and
nothing will unnerve them SO quickly
as to learn that the more victories
they win the more their fortunes

NEW YORK CURB MARKET.

New York. July 2-Pnces Of those issues
which have been prominent recently on the
curb declined rather sharply after the opening.
due principally 10 lack Of demand and scarcity
Of supporting orders in the market. Recoreries
were scared toward the close. which brought
prices 70 near the finals OF last week. and in
some instances small gains were shown. The
early show Of weakness of other security mar
ksts was an influential factor Of the early de-
cline. Industrals were less active than they
have been for some time and prices IN these
issures showed the largest losses At the start
These losses did not extend beyond a point and
were fully recovered. Motors were heavy but
offerings were light and readily absorbed.
Houston Oil was an exception to the general
heaviness. advancing 20 near the highest level
of last week. The balance OF the independent
oil list was fairly active.
Metal stocks were in fair demand in the
early session and prices were at or near the
levels Of the previous close.

that in other countries where the

touches given to the story which
were impossible on the audible stage,
and a decided addition OF patriotism
made appropriate by the war.
Mr.. CohRn's magnetic personality
IS a little missed on the screen, but
he gives a spirited picture of Hol-

cast are Marguerite Clayton, as the
girl in the case, and Russell Bassett

There Is an abundance OF fascinat-

photoplay version of James oliver
Curwood's novel Of the Canadian
Northwest, "Baree, Son OF Kazan,"
which is being shown as the feature
OF the bill at Moore's Garden Theater

protector and finally the avenger of

whose Nemesis is McTaggart, the
brutal factor OF the Hudson Bay trad
ing post.
man offers one Of the most impressive
portrayals OF her career before the
camera, and chief in her support is
pictured Alfred Whitman. whose ca
pabilities are well known to picture
enthusiasts. The plot deals directly
with the attempt Of the chief trader
to coerce Perriott, the trapper, into
bartering his daughter for the con-
tinued privilege Of selling his skins
to the company and the manner in
which Jim Carvel aided by Baree, the
dog, thwarts the evil designs of an
arch criminal
The settings are genuine, the film
having been made in the dead of win
ter in a genuinely frigid part Of the
Northwest snow country.
On Wednesday and Thursday the
chief attraction at the Garden will be

KNICKERBOCKER

Dorothy Dalton is seen to particu-
lar advantage in the central role OF
the phctOpIay2 The Mating Of Mar
celia" yesterdays offering at Gran
dalrs Hnick erbocker. 1t is a story
with a refreshingly original plot
about a poor girl who is induced to
assume the name of a wealthy young
wife and live for siz months in Ne
vada. She believes this is to fulfill
the conditions of a will. but in reality
she is establishing a residence in Ne
vada for a butterfly wife who seeks a
divorce. An interesting situation is
developed when the husband, arriv-
ing at the same Nevada hotel, dis
covers the ruse and promptly falls in
love with the substitute. Later, fol-
lowing the advice of the heroine, the
husband seeks a reconciliation with
the wife. She refuses and sues for a
divorce, and names the girl as CO.
respondent But finally the complica-
lions are solved and the story comes
to pleasing conclusion. Juanita
Hanson contributes a clever perform
Gnce as the butterfly wife, while
Thurston Hall is well cast as the hus-
hand.

culties afford the raison d'etre Of the
astonishing number OF startling &C.
currences that follow.
As the elderly man-abOut-town and
mOney-wasting voluptuary Theodore
Roberts contributes another OF his I'm
ished approximations and Tully Mar
shall and Gustav Won SeyffertitZ also
offer sterling bits. Among the femi-
nine members of the cast, Wanda
Hawley, Florence Vidor, Helen Je-
rome Eddy, Marcia Manon, and others
add appreciable strength to the ex-
traordinary ensemble.
The story is one that presents no
end OF surprises and unforeseen rami-
fcations. The locale shifts from this
country to Canada and to Europe, and
all phases OF life, both pastoral and
metropolitan are faithfully reflected
upon the screen. 1t is made logical
by the odd sequence of pictured
events to introduce one of the most
elaborate fashion displays that ever
charmed the eye OF a susceptible
member of the ultrasmart modiste's
patronage. OF action there is no end,
scenes OF frankly melodramatic VIC
lence being included among the many
that center breathless attention.

threads are all unraveled by a kindly
fate and the girl finds happiness

FOLLY THEATER-

The current attraction at the Folly

Fascinating Widow" oRe Of the most
laughable burlesque shows seen here
this season.
The action OF the piece takes place
in the lobby Of New York hotel and
at Rector's roof garden at night.
The company is composed of a
number OF talented people and they
showed to advantage in both acts.
Tom Howard and Jay MCGEE extract
ed a lot Of fun out Of the lines pro-
vided for them. Harriet Berg was
well received in her song "Daddie
Mine"
Louise Wright heads the feminine
portion of the cast, and appeared to
advantage in a number of songs.
Mabel Grant. Harry Myers, Helen
ellis. and George West are much in
evidence throughout the entertain
ment. The chorus OF eighteen pretty
girls is up to the usual standard. Cos
TUNES and scenic effects are on
lavish scale.

CRANDALL,s AND SAVOY.

In selfish Yates" shown both at
CrandaIrs and CrandaII's Savoy yes
terday, William S. Hart portrays a
role that is on a par with the best of
his recent characterizations. As Self
ish Yates" he is seen as proprie-
tor of a gambling hall in Arizona in
the gold-rush days. A confirmed egot-
list, his motto is Myself first. and to
the devil with all others" Into his
life comes a sweet and innocent
young woman who, by the force of
her compelling eye and soft. yet rig
orous, example, redeems him.
As Yates" Hart has another OF
those strong Western characterize
lions for which he is famous. He
fights freely to win and retain the
respect and love Of the girl He
saves her from a scoundrel and in
turn protects this man from an
avenging mob at her own request.
The work of the supporting cast was
excellent throughout II will be the
feature at both houses today.

APOLLO,

Mary Pickford appears to signal ad-
vantage in ''M'liss," Bret Harte's fas-
cinating story OF the California gold
rush days, which formed the principal
attraction at Crandall's Apollo yester-
day, and which is also being shown
there today. Miss Pickford Is at her
best as the harum-scarum child OF the
mines, daugher of a worthless father.
The object of ridicule wherever she
went, she learns to take her own
part, and demonstrates her pugilistic
abilities. Then a change comes into
her life with the arrival of Charles
Gray, a school teacher, whose pupil
she becomes-but the trend Of the
story from this point is far from
passive. The teacher is arrested as a
murderer and Miss assists in his
escape and in the subsequent estab-
lishment Of his innocence, with
logical happy ending. The appeal OF
the story is greatly enhanced by its
presentation in beautiful and rugged
settings which provide charming
backgrounds.

Editorial

Down near the Union Station
is one of those nonstop streets.
Three times we've been on the
car as it whizzed by out-of-town
folks waiting at that corner for
car.
There are so many new people
in the city just now that it would
be a splendid SERVICE idea to
put signs at these nonstop cor
ners with a hand pointing to the
nearest car stop and directing
people to it
Nothing is so exasperating-
especially if you are in a hurry
as to have a car that is not full go
flying by without so much as
hesItating.
Even in these busy war times,
let's be just as thoughtful Of the
visitors who come to our city as
in peace times, and especially in
the little things that require so
little time and thought.
Won't some of you show this
little suggestion to the proper
man for consideration?
