TRADING IN MARKET HEAVY

New York. Nov. 13.-When call money rates broSe to six per cent Tn the final hour of trading the stock market rebounded today from its low levels and closed at apprec-able ad- vancss throughout the list. Trading was heavy before the closing and many stocks, notably motors, oils. steels, equipments affiliated industrl- als and score Of miscellaneous spe- cialties, showed gains for the day Of from to sS points. Sales for the day approxipated 2.2OO,000 shares.
 Rates for call loans he'd at Is per cent until about o'clock. Then they broke to F and rapidly went to six. the normal rate. This was believed to mark the passing of the stringent money period. Leaders ih the spirited rally which followed were the issues which broke most severely yesterday and the day before.
 The market was steadier at the opening today but tiEe initial high rates for all caused an avalanche of selling in the next hour or two.
 Factors which contributed to the lower rates were the lending of money by brokers who offered their surplus funds, and announcement from Washington that the Federal Reserve Board had taken no action on credit conditions here.
 One of the leaders of the spirited rally was General MottDs, which opened at 15 point rise only to lose its advantage and finally advanced by leaps and bounds to 325, an extreme recovery of 5points. Mexican pe- trOleum, in which support seemed al- most altogether lacking yesterday rose over 30 points.
 The extent to which the short in- lest invpluntarly y participated fn the rebound by covering of contracts Is naturally a matter. of debate, but the markets recuperativa power sug gested that no small part of the re- cent reversal was due to bearish az gressions.

to announce Thursday morning that
the fund Of $3.50 was made up.
Mr.. Jessup got 30 checks from the

came to local postal authorities yes

AT the same time the mail CLERK

be effective for the north-bound trair

board it until Kingsville is reached.
Up that far mail will be handled as
pouch express.
The clerk authorized for Harlingen

vice on Train is, leaving here for
branch-line points at $50 o'clock, all
the way up from Brownsville to Sam

The same clerk will return here on
train IL, arriving in Brownsville at
6 o'clock from branch line points An
other clerk will serve trains and z.
connecting at Harlingen with the
Houston Brownsville and Brownsville
Houston trains.
For the past two years there has
been no postal clerk service on the
train named. Mail was handled by
express in closed pouches. This neces-
STATED the closing af males from half
an hour to three-quarters Of an hour
before the departure of trains, and
made it impossible to mail letters in
the mail car after the outgoing mail
had closed at the postoffice. The plb-
lie was considerably inconvenienced
by the abolition of mail clerk service.
Its reestablishment will be welcomed
all through the Valley.
As an interesting sidelight on the
subject. railway mail clerks declare
that the run between Brownsville
ard Mission is the hardest stretch II
territory in Texas for item. Towns
are so close together on the branch
line and so much mail enters and
leaves that section that the postal
clerk scarcely has time TO start
Throwing" the mail from one station
when the train stops at another Since
there are many letters addressed from
one town TO the next or the second
one along the branch line it is neces-
sary for the clerk to work at lightning
speed or carry mail matter by towns
where it should be dropped off, be-
cause of lack of time to sort it.

CLEVER SWINDLERS MAKE
COUP NETTING THEM BIG
SUM = USE ADVERTISING
(By The Associated Press)

BERLIN, June 26.-Two clever
swindlers took advantage of the pro-
cedure prevalent nowadays by making
a coup which resulted in netting them
half a million marks through adver-
tisements. They interested wealthy
men in platinum which they produced
in some underhand way and offered
to sell it for cash which was to be
delivered at a point not far from Ber-
lin in lonely road.
The purchasers appeared in autos,
delivered the currency and received
the pltinum, but on returning to the
city they were challenged by alleged
soldiers. The car was searched as if
for weapons and the platinum taken
by accomplices of the swindlers.
