The only contact reported with Mexi-
cans was by the pilot of one plane which
returned to Maria with bullet-riddleo
wings. Three Mexicans fired on the
machine and the observer replied with
machine gun, killing one Mexican, the
flyer believes.
Captain Matlock, who paid $500 of
the $4,000 ransom and galloped off
with Lieutenant Davis to the stupefied
surprise Of the bandits, said before lead
ing his forces back into Mexico "I'm
going to get back that money! The
intrepid Kentuckian, with a record Of
IS years in the regular army, is leading
his men over one Of the widest districts
of northern Mexico, cut up by arroyas,
Jagged mountains and marked by des-
erts. The troops carried only meager
ratiens on mule packs. A field wireless
to C,ndelaria and thence field wire to
Colonel Langhorne 's headquarters IN
Maria is their only means Of coinmuni
cation.
With canyons and hills affording the
bandits many possibly hiding plaees, the
American troops are confronted by a
difficult task. But military authorities
are hopeful that Renteria s band will Dc
ovcrtaken. They believe the bandits
will be, captured or killed.
Major General J. I. Dickman, com
mander of the southern department, il
expected to reach Maria today to direc,
the border operations in the Big benc
district. Colonel Royce, chief AVIATOR

STOCKS AND BONDS

NEW YORK, Nov. 7-Tra6ing in stocks today was marked by absence Of feverish contractions, which ac- companied dealings of the two preced- ing sessions. The undertone contin- ued feverish, however, many leaders ciosirg at declines of 1 to points.
 When the market showed any sta 5ility at all, the improvement was mainly due to easier money. Call loans opened at F per cent, receded in the last hour to 10, and closed at the opening quotation.
 Another factor which contributed to the more orderly trend was the strength of rails. Almost a score of those issues held the better part of their gains of l to 21A points under lead Of Southern Pacific.
 The usual favorites in the steel, equipment, motor and oil groups were inclined to throw off their recent Leaviness at times, but fell away to- wards the end, when fresh pressure developed. Shipping, tobacco, leather, rubber andunclassified specialties which figured in the advance of the previous month also were reaction ary. probably as a result of the lack of pool support Several of the motor accessories were cOnspicuously strong with chemical and fertilizer issues. A thirteen-point rise in Associated Oil was the, noteworthy feature. Sales, i.25O,000 shares.
 Libert yissues without exception were lower. The general bond list also evinced irregular tendencies. Total sales, par value, $15,575,OOO. Old United States bonds were un- changed on call.

ESSENTIAL INDUSTRIES STILL CAN OPERATE

It will be possible, therefore, to draw from the 100000 tons a week of non-union coal which will remain after the railroads reduced require ments are taken care of enough coal to supply the domestic demand and operat essential industries-if the coal is properly distributed and rationed- through perhaps on reduced basis of operation.
 This does not mean sudden stop page Of industry or early freezing of the people.
 It does mean slow strangulation of industry and commerce.
 Therein lies the great danger that this industrial war will not come to a speedy crisis and early settlement but will drag along slowly, drawing the nation into a deadly industrial de- pression, bringing suffering to mil lions of families and financial ruin to thousands who have built their plans and made their commitments on basis of continued industrial prosperity.

FINANCIAL NOTES

NEW YORK, Nov. 7.-Bradstreet's s tomorrow will say: '"The trade and industrial effects of the coal strike nuch those of it's unsuccessful prede- cesso rim the steel industry. Actual effects upon distribution are, except in purely coal mining regions, almost negligible. Concern verging upon un- easiness is. expressed, whereas 1n some cases, supplies of coal for fu- ture manufacturing needs are small, hut reports from large consuming cen ters point to thirty to sixty days sup niles of fuel being available, and con fidence is expressed that the strike will end before the extreme pinch comes. The heartening effect upon husiness men of the strong stand taken by the government to help order and to insure the non-unlon mines which employ third of the soft coal miners, running, and the re- suits of the Massachusetts election cannot be underestimated. It is felt that the tide has definitely turned in labor matters and this view is but tressed by the failure of the steel and lcngshoremen's strikes, while many smaller labor troubles have also dis anpeared. Commerce at the port of New York has been actively resumed and the tieups a. New Or,eans and San Francisco are expected to sho' fly disappear.

CORN AND GRAIN

CHICAGO, Nov. 7.-Announcement that the individual permit system reg ulating the movement of grain from country stations to terminal markets would be discontinued on November 10. hal decided bearish effect today in the corn market. Prices closed heavy, 13sc to 21sc@ner lower, with December $1.35A to $1.353s, ana May SIPS tC S1.2S1s. Oats lost %c 70 1c. In. provisions the outcome varied from Sc decline to 15c advance.
 Corn prices broke sharply after word went around that the permit system would be ended on Monday, except in regard to shipments from one terminal market to another. It was generally assumed that the con- sequent exemption of rural shippers would increase arrivals here to a ma terial extent Earlier in the day bears derived considerable advantage from reports that the government might offer large amounts of wheat for re- sale to domestic consumers. The coal strike situation tended likewise to handicap the bulls. and so too, did some enlargement of receipts. Only transient upturns at the opening re- suited from the rainy weather and from forecasts of more moisture ahead
 Persistent selling which developed in the oats market was ascribed to notice that foreign ships would be un- able to coal in American harbors.
 Provisions advanced with hogs. but reacted when corn turned weak.

 Here are the facts:
 Tn non-union fields are employed between 15O,0OO and 175,0OO miners, or about one-fourth of the total num- Ter i1 the United States.
 With the full supply of cars and under the urgency of the nations needs these non-union miners can pro duce 3,000,000 tons week, or about one-third of the nations normal out put of 100000 tons
 If railroad traffic continued undi- than enough to keep the railroads run ming; but the railroad traffic will be greatly diminished because a large part of it's traffic tonnage is coal, which will be cut down two-thirds.
 There will be almost as great a decrease in shipments of ores, other raw materials and manufactured goods as a result of the coal shortage, so that the railroads requirements, while the strike exists, probably drop to not more than 100000 tons a week.
 With that they may Graw from the 11,O00,o0O tons now said to be stored by the railroads, the anthracite mines will continue to operate and fully take care of the eastern domestic demand, and considerable part of the factory requirements.
