FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET SHOWED STRENGTH.

New York. Dec. 19.-Led by oils, motors, steels and equipments at ex- trrme gains of to 16 points ,today's stock market gave demonstration of underlying strength.
 The movement in oils was featured by Mexican and Pan-American Petro- letEns. those iszues showing great est activity in connection with merger plans. while steels and affiliated shares derived their support from highly favorable trade conditions.
 Demand for finished steel and iron of all descriptions at mounting price schedules is said to be so large as to make necessary an elimination of the usual year end suspension of opera tiuns at the mills.
 Continued ease of call money, which ruled at siv per cent. though rising 70 eight per cent in the last hour and inc further stability of foreign ex- change, especially the rate on Lon don were among the factors which contributed to the confidence mani Tested by speculative interests.
 Shinpings, tobaccos and the usual miscellaneous specialties participated moderately in the days activity and coppers rallied from their early heavi- ness with rails. the latter strengthen ing toward the close on buying of Pa ci6cs and trunk lines. Sales amount ed to 1.125, ,00O shares.
 The one division of the financial markets which offered little encourag- ment was the bond market. Leading issues were steady at best. while Lib erty bonds manifested further reac- tionarv tendencies with some gilt edg pd rails and industrials. Total sales par value. were 26.500, 900.

BIG FISH LIVES WEEK
FIFTH MANY INJURIES

Miami, June 1S-News was brought
to this city last night by DR.. H.
Schlegel and one of the Roberts
brothers from Florida City that the
big fish caught by them Sunday June
s, had been alive until last Saturday
night, and its carcass is unharmed BY
sharks, being in perfect condition. It
now is in the mouth of the Florida
City canal, where it was towed, and
Harry Brigham, taxidermist, is on
the job ready to skin and salt down
the hide.
1t is considered remarkable that the
tsh should have lived six days after
1t was shot and thought to have beer
killed. However, Charlie Thompson's
worlds record fish, of the same spe-
eles, also lived a remarkably long
uine after it had been shot.

Harry and Loren Roberts and Lew

the big fish in shallow water off Cape
sable. At first. they thought it was

GLOOM SETTLES
DOWN ON NASSAU
Preparations to Alleviate Drought In
U. S. viii Go For Naught AS Gov
ernment Expects to Use Ward
Line to Bring Troops Home

Miami, June 1S.-Nassau's dream
of an old-time season this winter,
with all the big tourist hotels full of
the roof and the parks and parade av'
enues ashimmer with white gowns
and colorful sunshades, seems to have
gone glimmering with the awakening,
reluctant, but no longer deniable, to
the fact that there is not likely to be
any way to get the tourists there.
The awakening is all the more dis
NAL because Nassau had been plan
ming on a big scale. This was to
have been the greatest season in its
history. With the United States 60
ing dry July /, and revenue cutters
and subchasers patrolling the coast to
enforce the ban on John Barleycorn,
as an undesirable, and with the thou
sands and thousands of enforced
dry" ones. tortured by thirst pro-
longed through July, August, Septem-
ber, October and November, the Mas
sauites, that is, the hotel operators
and others who profit by their winter
clientele, had hopefully conjured up
picture Of the wild rush to their
shores of people bent on breaking
their long drouth, regardless OF ex'
pense.
So the Nassauites have been busy
according to reports, building, en-
larging, repairing and planning club
houses and renovating hotels that had
been lonesomely empty during the
war and laying in a whale of a stock
of booze. And in the brief periods
they stopped to catch their breath
and to snatch spell of much-needed
rest, they probably pitied Miami; for
they were going to gain at Miamfs
loss. Nothing yet in Miami but the
water, so why go there, when gay old
Nassau. with tons of stuff on ice, was
once more accessible?
Then it was suddenly discovered
that Uncle Sans plans were going to
interfere with the plans of these par
ticular Nassaurites, for, 1t seems at
this time, Uncle Sam will be using the
ships that were being counted on to
bring the "dry" wealth and fashion

Of the U. s. to Nassau, to bring back
soldiers from France, or take more

be, depending on whether or not
Germany signs.
This, in effect, is the news impart-
ed in communication just received
by Miamian interested In building
project in Nassau, from New York.
er largely interested In the same and
similar projects. Bhe communication
says that the only line that touches at
Nassau, the line that was to have car
rled thirsty humanity there-thc warJ
line, will be tied up with the govern
ment, bringing home doughboys from
over there, and the indications are
that the ships will not be released in
time to do Nassau much good this
coming season.
The communication says, further,
that Judging from the existing un-
promising outlook, the big Nassau
hotels will not attempt to open. The
writer describes the hotel people as
being extremely pessimistic. The
duration of the war was hard finan-
cial blow to them, and with no trans
portation sufficiently adequate In
sight to warrant the opening of their
hostleries before the season of 1920
81, they are, it is said, regarding the
situation with gloomy emotions.
All this, says the recipient of the
communication, will help Miami, of
course. Also, it is entirely probable
that in the long run it will help the
hundreds of disappointed ones, for in
stead of going to Nassau and a steady
debauch, they can come to Miami and
enjoy rest and health building recrea-
tion.
AS he further suggests, those who
win insist on going to 'Sau will have
to pass through Miami, going and
coming, and seeing Miami twice is
practically equivalent to becoming a
permanent Magic Cityite.

SOLDIER CANDIDATES IN FRANCE

Paris, June 18.-The political up
heaval in France, predicted as an af
termath of the war, appears to have
begun. After the modification of fac.
tional lines in the Socialist party, the
former extremist minority has be-
come the majority.
The new Socialist majority, taking
a far more extreme position than the
element led by Albert Thomas and
Marcel Sembat, former war minis
ters, does not yet openly pronounce
for Bolshevist principles, though in
the majority there is still further
extremist minority that demands i'm
mediate adherence to the doctrines Of
Lenine.
Several new political elements ap-
pear to be in the making and in some
of them the soldier will, for the first
time, make his influence felt.
Soldier candidates are likely to be
numerous. There is already talk OF
Colonel Raynal, the hero of the fort
of vaux, as a candidate against the
Socialist leader and Bolshevist sym
pathizer Jean Longuet, grandson OF
Karl Marx NJ. Caillaux, whose candi-
dacv for reelection in the Sarthe has
been announced, may also have a
soldier opponent. General Mangin's
name has been mentioned in this con-
nection but probably without authori-
! ty.
