TRADERS TURN THOUGHT
TO THE PEACE STOCKS.

NEW YORK, October LA wave OF
trading started with the tap Of the
bell. resulting in 100000 shares being
bought and sold in the first hour,
with continued activity on a larger
scale than for some time and with a
marked shift in the trading from the
war stocks to the peace shares.
This was evidenced in the very
opening. The apparent near collapse

Equipment shares were less mark

the loss; coppers held fairly steady,
but slow.

There he obtained q forged passport
and in the guise Of Montevldean took
passage for New York and from there
70 England.
He paused through England without
any difiiculty on his forged passport,
but concluded not TO risk going TO Hol-
land for fear OF exciting too much sus-
pieion, 20 went down through the
Strait Of Gibraltar to Italy. which was
neutral at that time, up 10 Austria,
and thence to Germany. He said when
they put in at Gibraltar. after leaving
England. there were two suspects
taken on the ship. men that he was
sure were neutral subjects, but much
to his relief his own passport and ere
dentials were examined and passed

The Hun spoke of his voyage from
America to England as being excep.
tionally pleasant. and said he had a
fine time, because he associated with
the English passengers on board, his
fluent English readily admitting him
TO several spirited arguments on the
subject Of the war. which he keenly
enjoyed. One little incident he related
revealed the remarkable tact which
our enemy displayed In his associa-
tions at sea, which no doubt resulted
adyantageously for him. As he ex-
pressed II, he made q HIT one evening
when the crowd has assembled for
little music by suggesting that they
sing God Save the King" Thereafter
his popularity was assured and the de-
sired effect accomplished, for very
soon q French officer came up TO him
and said. "Its too bad that England
and ourselves haven't men In our army
like you" It was too bad, he agreed,
In telling me about II. because he was
confident he could have done q whole
lot more for Germany II he had been
in the English army. In spite OF his
apparent loyalty. however, the man
didn't seem very enthusiastic over the
war and frankly admitted one day that
the old political battles waged In Cell
fornia were much more to his liking
than the battles he had gone through
over here. On second thought he
laughed as though It were q good Joke.
but he evidently intended me to infer
that he had taken a keen interest In
politics In San Francisco.
When my "chummy enemy" first
started his conversation with me. the
German doctor In charge reprimanded
him for talking to me, but he paid no
attention to the doctor. showing that
some real Americanism had soaked
into bis system while he had been in
the U. s. A. asked him one day what

could not speak English. and naturally
l did not say anything to him. Once

smiled. At this time I was just be-
ginning 10 say a few words, as my
wound had prevented me from talking.
but I said enough 10 let him know
what was doing there and how I
happened to be there. He evidently
had heard my story from some Of the
others, though, because he said Il was
too bad I had not broken my neck !;
that he did not have much sympathy
with the flying corps anyway. He
asked me what part Of America came
from, and / told him California"
After few more questions he
learned that ] hailed from San Fran
cisco, and then added to my distress
by saying. "How would you like to
have a good. juicy steak right out Of
the HofbrauT Naturally I told him
II would shit the spot" but I hardly
thought my mouth was In shape just
then to eat II. I Immediately asked,
OF course, what he knew about the
Hofbrau, and he replied. II was con-
nected with the place q good many
years. and ought to know all about
It."
After that this German officer and
! became rather chummy; that Is, as
far as ! could be chummy with an
enemy, and we whiled away q good
many long hours talking about the
days we had spent In San Francisco,
and frequently In the conversation one
Of Us would mention some prominent
Californian. or some little incident oc-
curing there. with which we were
both familiar.
He told me when war was declared
he was. Of course. intensely patriotic
and thought the only thing for him to
do was TO 60 back and aid In the de-
fense Of his country. He found that
he could not go directly from San
Francisco. because the water was too
well guarded by the English. so he
boarded a boat for South America.
