New York stock Market.

Wall St, New York, Oct. 24---SToCKS-
The collapse of the industrial conference
and other labor developments probably ac-
count for the confusion Of speculative SEN
timent at the opening Of todays stock
market. Steel shares for example, moved
contrarily with some of the equipments but
the tendency for the most part was toward
Improvement. Miscellaneous issues were
prominent at substantial gains. notably
Remington typewriter and National lead
Rails, yesterdays most stable issueeA, re-
flected confident buying. especially tfans-
continental and grangers-
Rails continued to sustain the market
during the morning cnHnges otherwise be-
coming more mixed. Trading offered a
striking contrast to recent sessions, notable
in the absence of feverish fluctuations and
the pronouneed curtailment Of operations
Oils, motor specialties apd tobacecs shared
in the advance of transportations and steels
developed a strong tone. Features of that
division included Crucible. Lackawanna,

French Traitor Faced Firing
Squad This Morning.
Was Third Person Shot for
"Defeatist" Campaign.
DRAMATICALLY SAVED SEPT. 19
Att3rney Said He Could Give
Evidence in CailIaux Trial.
Paid Humbert Large Sums O.
Hun Money for Newspaper.

Paris, oct. 24.-Pierre Lenoir, con-
Tieted on charge of having held in
telligence with the enemy. was executed
at Sante prison at Z o'clock this morn
ing.
Because of partial paralysis he was
permitted to sit down while the rifle
squad fired
Three reporters who secretly made
their way into the enclosure to witness
the execution were arrested.
Pierre Lenoir was the third person
ito be executed on charges arising out
OF attempts made by German agents
TO conduct a "defeatist" campaign in
France in 1915 and 1916. The others
who met death as a result of reVela-
tons made against them were BOLD
Pasha, executed April II, 1918, and NJ
sDuval who faced the firing squad
July II, 1913. Both were directors of
the Germanophile newspaper, Bonnet
Rouge
Lenoir, who as young man had led
an idle and dfssolute- life, came into
public notice early in 1918 when the
arrest of Senator Humbert, owner of
the Paris Journal was followed by
charges against several men who were
alleged to have acted as agents of the
Germans in buying the newspaper
from NJ Humbert. 1t was shown
early in the investigation that Lenoir
had paid NJ. Humbert large sums of
money which he had received from
tGermans and that Lenoir had received
a commission of about 100000 for his
work. The money handled by Lenoir
scame into France by the way of
Switzerland. a German agent named
$Schoeller acting for Germany in that
zcOuntry.
z y Dramatic Appeal.
Lenoir was doomed to death on May
