NEW YORK
STOCKS.

New York, Sept. 25.-Repeating its
course Of the previous day, the stock
market reacted quite generally before
the end Of the first hour. United
States steel fell back a point, re-
versals, among related issues. also
equipments, motors, oils and tobaccos
ranging from 1 to 8 points. Motor
accessories we're striking exceptions,
particularly rubber issues, that group
being very active at gains of l to 4
points. Sugars also added to recent
advances and California packing and
American Can were benefited by the
broader demand for food shares. The
market strengthened again at noon,
coppers making substantial gains.
Steel shares were among the frmest
issues at the opening of today's stock
market, traders evidently viewing the
strike situation with increased conf
dence. Other firm to- strong features
included oils, tobaccos and food is
sues, also motors and their specialties
and shippings. Metals improved not
withstanding the unfavorable semi
annual statement of the American
Smelling company. Equipments were
hesitant on denial Of Baldwin locomo-
tive recapitalization JUNIORS and
changes among rails were confined to
fractions.
New York, Sept. 25.-The noon raj
~ was checked by further selling OF
oils, steels and equipments, in which
declines more than offset gains in
metal, food and shipping shares
Losses soon were overcome in part
however. Baldwin Locomotive and

FIGURED WHITE
S0X WOULD WIN
Chicago Will Enter World
Series With Nearly a
Veteran Lineup.

Chicago, Sept. 25.-When kid
Gleason succeeded Clarence Rowland
as manager Of the Chicago Americans
and started the 1918 season with the
same lineup that finished sixth in the
1913 pennant race after winning the
worlds championship in 1917 few
baseball experts figured that the White
Sox would win the American league
flag this season.
The wise ones are offering all sorts
of eason for the startling reversal of
form. They say that playing under a
new leader was a contributing factor,
but all agree hat perhaps the main
one was that the players themselves
entered the game this eason with a
. renewed confidence following the
termination Of the world war Last
season a majority Of the White Sox
were expecting to be called into mill
tary service any day, and this with the
sential'' was a disturbing situation.
The 1918, White Sox was a team
grinding over the pennant road minus
some Of its main cogs. Joe jackson,
the clubs leading batter this season
went into the shipyards after. batting
1854 for seven games; Oscar Happy
Felsch. quit the club after playing in
hfty-three. games; Pitcher Faber en-
listed In the navy after winning five
of six games, while Pitcher Claude
Williams went to work in the ship
yards when. he had won six and lost
four games. The loss Of these four
players proved a staggering blow.
Added to this loss. Eddie Cicotte.
the veteran right handed and leading
pitcher in 1917, was in a slump dur
ing he entire season, winning only
twelve games and losing nineteen. But
1t was a different Cicotte this season.
His remarkable comeback has been
one of the sensations of the year and
his effective pitching is one Of the
chief reasons why the White Sox an-
ished out in front.
That the White Sox will have prac-
tically a veteran lineup when the club
enters the baseball classic against
Cincinnati is shown by the following
comparison of the 1917 and 1919 line
ups:

developed in the corn market today
as a result Of lack of support and
owing to continued selling pressure
from commission houses. The sales
were said to be largely in the nature
of profit taking On the part of recent
buyers. A popular view vas that
there had been advance enough for
the time being. Corn at the top yes

prices, which ranged from 1 IA cents
off to 1-S cent gain, with December
$1.26 ga to 1877 and May $1.23 ga to
1.24 Is, were followed by material
declines all around and then some-
thing Of a reaction.
Oats gave way with corn after
opening unchanged to 3-S cents lower,
including December at 50 6-8 to
50 IA cents, the market continued to
sag.
Provisions were dull and weak. The
ruling factor wa the downward tend

game before they disbanded. A To-

claim for special distinction. asserting
that n team which could close a

 BY PERSH|NC
Says but for the Work of Those in the Field and at Home War Could Not
 Have Been Won.

COBLENZ, March 1S.-Gen John Pershing while inspecting the hos pitals here, praised the American women who participated in the war. He said the Government could not have carried out it's part, if 1t had not been for the American nurses and the American women at home. He said the courage and patriotism of these women in the field, in dan gerous positions and with no thought of self and fatigue, and of those at home, with their sacrifices of losing their dearest ones and their tireless work, contributed most largely to the winning of the war.
 The General said that although the American women were in the war a short time, the American medical and hospital service were not ex- ceeded by that of any other Nation.

SENATOR REED
 ATTACKS LEAGUE
 OF THE NATIONS

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, March IS. Senator James Reed of Missouri in addressing the members of the Leg islature here criticised the constitu. tion of the League of Nations, and declared that it would abrogate tho Monroe doctrine, violate the Ameri- can Constitution and create a super government of the world.
 He said 1t would force the Ameri- can Government into the worldwide differences and difficulties and shoul- der responsibilities which would make this country help police other nations.
 The speaker insisted that the Leagues actions would be mandatory and involve the command of the world. He said we would be worse off if the Leagues obligations were only morally binding for the United States kept its moral obligations, where other nations might not do so.
