with nothing more serious to consider than his scholastic standing, and the fortunes of the eleven. Gates now faces the grimmer, in fact, the grim mest things of life, faces them with the clear eyes and steady hands and indomitable resolution which we like to believe typical of the American college athlete. He is his letter to Mrs. Read:
 T am enclosing a clipping cut out of the local newspaper here. Curtis was buried on Thursday morning. His funeral was attended by many British officers, both army and navy, and by both branches of the French service. Besides the company of American sailors, there were squads of English and French sailors who marched in honor of the American officer. Please feel assured that every thing was done for him that could be done. The Allied forces here were wonderful, and every organization in this vicinity, whether military, naval or civil sent representatives
 "The greatest sort of homage was shown by every one, the streets being lined by French people who stood at attention with hats off and bowed heads. When it comes my turn 1
 
 tented to feel that I was shown a third of the honor that was done to Curtis. The city of Dunkirk pre- sented a beautiful wreath of flowers with the inscription, "To the First American Officer to Die for France at Dunkirk." Nothing could be more impressive than to see a French gen. eral, an Admiral, British staff officer, and many other officers of the two nations paying homage. He was bur jed in the Dunkirk cemetery, which is just outside the city on the so-called Furnes Road.
 Believe me, Mrs. Read, Curtis death was a terrible loss to all of us. For you and his family we have the greatest sympathy, because we have some slight comprehension of what an awful loss it means to you. His grave will be properly marked and looked after by his fellow officers and friends here. Anything else that can be done we will only be too willing to do No soldier could ask for any greater honor than to be one of the very first to die for his country in this cause and to join the ranks of the best French and | British blood"

SAYS DEALERS
SHOULD keep
CLOSE TO SHORE
F. R. SebenthaII Advises In
pIement Men Not to Over
stock; Competition Will
Be Keen.

F. R. Sebenthall. of Eau Clair.
Wis, delivered the principal address
of the 10th annual convention of the
Midwest Implement Dealers as
ISOLATION, in the Hotel Rome, Thurs
day morning.
Mr.. Sebenthall represents the Ma
tional Federation of Retail Imple-
ment Dealers, of which he is direc-
tor. The subject of his address was
THE Outlook for the Retail Imple-
ment Dealer for the next Twelve
Months" Mr.. Sebenthall is looked
upon by the implement men as an
authority in the conduct of that busi-
ness and as student of business
conditions, and his address was list
ened to with marked attention by
the throng of retail dealers present.
Dealers Have Peculiar Positions.
Mr.. Sebenthall told the dealers
ito transact their business in such
a way that he will remain loyal to
both the customer with whom he
deals and loyal to the country and
our ideas of democracy" He said:
This is a hard ask for many of
the dealers, because Of the fact that
large combinations of capital are
engaged in the manufacture of agri-
cultural implements, and it is the
peculiar position of the retailer to
buy them and pass them out to the
farmer, and do justice to the farmer,
which will be hard problem for the
dealer this year. There is no doubt
that there will be downward trend
in prices for farm implements.
"The government has removed the
restriction on their manufacture.
material will now be obtainable. and
a larger number of machines will be
produced than ever before, which
will make keen competition. The re-
taller in his evolution has become a
merchant rather than an agent for
the manufacturer, ard they are a
strong factor in the production; they
are we'll fitted by reason of expert
ence to render greater service to
their farmer customers than are any
other merchants.
my advice during the coming
years would be that the dealer
should keep very close to shore,
buying goods only for immediate
needs, and not allow any manufac-
turer or jobber to persuade him
against his own rational judgment
to overstock in the purchase of
goods. The dealer will be called
upon to take an interest in things
which heretofore he was not called
upon to do; the home coming of the
boys and the reconstruction of
things generally and business must

American Meat Trust
is Criticised in
British Commons

London, Nov. l4.--In a discus
sion in the House of Commons
yesterday concerning the food
question and control OF the meat
supply, the American meat trust
was criticised severely by some
speakers.
Maj. Waldorf Aston, Parliamen-
tary secretary of the food minis
try, said that. the trust controlled
more than so per cent of the avail
able and importable meat supplies,
which constituted a serious
menace. However, he added, the
interallied food council set up by
the food controller and which
would buy in the worlds markets,
was going to be stronger than the
trust. 1t would be able to dictate
to the trust, If necessary, and
would be able to fix reasonable
prices for consumers.

RAIL OFFICIAL
SAYS OUTLOOK
IN STATE Good
Burlington General Manager
Finds Conditions Excellent
on Inspection Trip
Over Lines.

"The end of the war has brought
about a wonderful change in the
spirits of the people and the recent
rains put the ground in condition so
that the greatest crop in the history
Of Nebraska is apparently in sight
for next year." is the way General
Manager Holdrege of the Burling-
ton puts it after making an extended
trip over the state.
With Regional Director Holden,
Mr.. Holdrege left Omaha more than
week ago, going out over the Bill
ings line. The party covered a
goodly portion OF Burlington terri
tory in Wyoming and Montana and
returned over the southern lines.
Mr.. Holden left the party at Denver
and went on west to the coast.
Speaking of crop conditions, Mr..
Holdrege said:
Corn Crop Average.
cali through northern Nebraska
corn is turning out about an average
crop; with good weather husking
is pretty we'll finished.
"All over the state the acreage
in winter wheat is very large and
the fields are looking the best that
| ever saw them at this time of the
year. The plant has been given a
fine start by reason of the numerous
rains and the long, pleasant fall
Going into the winter in such splen-
did condition, the yield next season
should be unusually large.
"Pasturage is fine and the live
stock is in excellent condition.
Everywhere in the cities and towns
business seems to be good and peo'
pie without exception are the most
optimistic that l have ever seen
them.
$50 far as the railroads are con-
cerned, we have no reason for COM
plant. We are having plenty OF
business and are able to keep it
moving. With the war ending as il
has there is no apparent reason why
Nebraska, like the balance of the
country, should not enjoy long
period of the greatest business &C
tivity and prosperity"

Market and Industrial News of the Day
FINANCIAL.

New York Nov. 1.-THE stock mar
ket today gave further expression to the
many conflicting factors which have en-
gagged the earnest attention Of financial
and Industrial interests since the sign
ing Of the armistice.
Prices were firm to strong at the be-
ginning. rails, shippings equipments and
oils. together with such specialties as mo-
tors and tobaccos, holding their gains Of
l to 8 points throughout the forenoon.
Later the entire list fell back. the re-
versal coinciding with reports from Wash
ington that the war Industries board had
been empowered to- cancel war contracts
In excess OF comparatively nominal
amounts.
There was much discussion in stock
market circles as to the advisablity of re-
moving restrictions on bank loans, but
the arguments advanced in that quarter
received little encouragement from finan-
cial institutions
The reaction was at its height in the
last hour when oils and industrlals not
only forfeited all gains, but gave way to
net losses Of ! to points. Motors also
yielded easily with kindred specialties
United States Steel gave promise at the
outset Of regaining substantial part or
its recent loss, advancing II points. but
relinquished all Its advantage and closed
at a slight fractional loss.
Advances of to 2 points In rails. with
Southern Pacific the leading feature. also
were soon forfeited. while coppers la
bored under the handicap of adverse earn
ings and shippings lost ground on fur
Their postponement Of the Mercantile Ma
rine deal
Liberty bonds eased slightly, domestic
railway and industrial issues yielded to
IL per cent and internationals were ir-
regular. Total sales, par value, aggre-
gated s1l $4,000. Old United States
bonds were unchanged on call.
The market became very irregular dur
ing the listless noon hour. United States
Steel, Marine preferred and the motor
division reacted to points on moderate
pressure, while Southern Pacific and the
leading tobacco issues were prominent at
substantial gains.
