MARKET WEAK,
SAVE MARINE
Declines Range from One to
Five Points; Fourth
Loan at New Low.
BY BRoADAN WALL.

New York. Nov. 27.-Aside from an
upward movement of more than 10
points in Marine preferred, little
strength was shown in today's stock
market. Even Marine declined sharp
Iy after the first excitement, al
though it closed more than 10 points
above the previous day. Practically
every other stock on the list was
lowered. The losses ranged from l to
as high as four and five points.
The railroads were heavy. Liberty
Bonds of the Fourth Loan made
another new low record, being at one
time down to 1886. The Limitation
of loans continued to be a depress-
ing feature, because IL is killing op-
timism and giving business men in all
parts of the country false impress
sion that there is something to fear
in the immediate future. Reports
from Washington that b. M. Baruch
would be Secretary. of the Treasury
were denied by Mr.. Baruch. but it
begins to appear that President Will
son is having some difficulty in get
ting secretary.
Railway Steel Springs was placed
on an s per cent basis. thus making
a slight concession TO the demand of
stockholders who felt that something
ought to be done in view of the fact
that the Nlrnings this year are above
$50 a share. In the last two years
the company has earned more than
$50 share on its common stock. A
stock dividend has also been talked
of, and there is a possibility Of this
coming later.
Those few optimists in the Street
who are still able to hold up their
heads called attention to the L. S.
Rubber and the Railway Steel Springs
earnings as proof that the industrial
companies of the country are in good

THE ELECTRIC CHAIR
Letter to the Police Force
From a Burglar Who Has Broken Into
Residence and Barricsded Himself There

Tn ACCEPTING the police departments
proposal for an evacuation of the resi-
dence at - Marathon avenue, Bill Skies
has started from the assumption that he
would have to get out Of the house any
way, and he might as we'll try to buffalo
the cops into letting him get away with
as much OF Ills hide intact as possible.
Bill Skies suggests to the chief OF police
that a conference should be brought about
to fix the details Of the evacuation. Since
he has been able to remove most q the
silver and cut glass to secure place,
he feels confident that the police depart
ment will make no demand upon him
which would be irreconcilable with his
honor.
Bill Skies protests against the reproach
Of illegal and inhumane actions made
against him. He wishes to point out that
the profession" OF housebreaking cannot
possibly be efficiently carried on without
certain amount Of damage. He admits
having dropped candle grease ON the rugs
in the house he entered but this was un.
avoidable. owing to the fact that the owner
had inconsiderately turned off the. electric
current. He absolutely denies that in raid
ing the ice box he caused any wanton de-
struction. He ate the apple pie he found
there. but the plate that was broken
slipped through his fingers merely by ac-
cident Mr.. Skies proposes. with regard to
charges Of wlping his boots on the bed
spreads, that a neutral committee be ap.
pointed to clear up the facts.
Bill Skies, in order not to hampe the
negotiations, has sent word to his pals not
to hook any OF the swag, but he cannot, for
technical reasons, guarantee that these
orders will reach every one Of the gang
before the stuff is disposed OF. ...
The chief OF police has accused Bill Skies
Of separately. secretly and OF his own sim
gle choice disturbing the peace of the city
To this Bill replies in clear, unequi"ocal
manner that it is true that he pulled this
deal on his own, initiative. Bu Stree then
the gang has been reorganized on a repre-
sentative basis, and before any more
houses are robbed the accent OF every
member of the gang will he obtained. What
more can the police departm mt ask? 1t Is
the unshakable determination Of the whole
bunch Of crooks that Bill Skies represents
their sentiments in this matter.
Bill Sikes's offer to withdraw from the
house in question in peaceable manner,
now that he finds himself in a Bit Of
hole, is supported by the approval of the
gang The democracy of their organization
can no longer be doubted.
In the effusions OF the poets, October's
bright blue weather is customarily sup
posed to be accompanied by draughts OF
brown October ale But it begins to look
as though tie month would pass by with
out even mug Of shandyga1, and We
haven't heard anything yet from the West
Chester cider mill.
