loved Country. Thou hast given it
material wealth and unlimited resources.
Thou hast chosen THE United States of
America" to he the home of liberty but
liberty with law and individual freedom
without anarchy. At times we have been
forced to defend these great boOns
against the passions of avarice for gold
and lust for power But Thou hast al
ways been with us and crowned our flag
with victory. In the struggle many OF
Americas noblest sons laid down their
lives on the Altar Of sacrifice. They
have exchanged time for eternity. In
Thy Goodness bestoW upon these heroes
the joys of Heaven where thou hast pre-
pared a reward for those who die for no
BILE ideals. Thy Apostle St. Paul having
been carried up to the third Heavens de-
clared that eye hath not seer nor ear
heard neither has it entered into the
heart of man to conceive the reward
Thou hast PREPARED Tor those who love
Thee. What greater proof Of love for
Thee than to die for justice and charity.
When we look back over the years and
see the splendid service those heroes
have rendered this prayer wells mp from
our grateful hearts
Eternal Rest grant unto them, 0 Lord
And let Thy Perpetual Light shine upon
them.

In connection with Mexican Petro-
leum's sensational rise of 1215 points to
206 "a, new high for the year. the story
OF a $4,000 share call went the rounds
yesterday, Told circumstantially, a big
maSnate when the stock was selling in
the 160s, about a month ago, offered a
call for 10000 shares at 80 points
above the market. This call, however,
did not go a begging for an insider put
mis- signature on the paper. The size
OF the transaction was incredible and
many were inclined to commfserate the
supposed unfortunate for taking such a
chance on Mex Pete. but the tables were
turned yesterday when the stock after
opening at 1914 and sagging to 1884,
began to jump, disregarding eighths and
quarters in its upward move. The in
slider exercised his call yesterday, so the
story goes, but did not sell more than
portion OF the shares he had ac-
quired. It was said that he holds the
rest OF the stock for ten point upward
scales to $50. II the story is true, the
call was the most profitable one in the
history OF the Street

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.


Pending the outcome of the labor con-
troversy traders appear content to sit
back quietly and withhold further COM
mitments. according to the majority Of
houses. It was reported at
these houses last night that there was
much less public buying and selling yes
terday and for two or three market days
previous than there has been for many
weeks past. What effect the labor
trouble, particularly the controversy be-
tween the Steel Corporation and the
steel workers, will have on the securi-
ties market when finally settled one way
or another is discussed freely in the
financial district and many conflicting
opinions have been expressed. There
are those who believe that Judge Gary
will recede from his position to the ex-
tent that he will assent to a conference
between the Steel Corporation officials
and leaders of the steel workers, and
these are confident that such action will
not have a deleterious effect on the mar-
ket Others, however. declare that
should such a step be taken 1t would
mark the first rift in the firm labor
policies which have always been main
tained by the Corporation, and would be
certain to have a bad effect on the mar
ket, for time at least. Then, too. there
are those who confidently assert that
the steel officials have the upper hand
and that Judge Gary will continue to re-
fuse any sort of conference or dealing
In any way with the union.

CrucibIe for Cash.

TAe purchase OF some 500 shares Of
Crucible Steel yesterday for. cash at
rising prices created considerable COM
ment In the Wall Street. district and the
conclusion reached was that the shorts
We're at 1t again" The particular
shorts, who had TO settle with the in
siders privately at $500 a share for
some $4,000 shares. probably have
heaied their burned fingers and have
avoided the bear side, but there were a
number OF others. whose names get into
club directories, who sold short in the
belief that lightning could not strike
twice In the same place. These new
shorts got uneasy yesterday when II be-
came very difficult to borrow Crucible
and a Few of them took the bull by the
horns and bought 500 shares for cash.
This buying was sufficient to raise the
price to 172&. for a gain Of more than
points Crucible Steel was first loaned
at per cent, then at per cent. bid.
Brokers said that there was little indi-
cation of any material net reduction in
the short account and they predict more

Pan-AmerIcan Petroleum.

Pan-American Petroleum shared with
Mexican Petroleum the leadership in the
upward move Of the oils. rising rs
points to 1904. and statisticians were
busy estimating that PIP ought to sell
at two-thirds of the market value Of
Mex Pete In other words, they esti-
mate that II Mn sold for 2O65 PIP
should have sold at about 14O. This
estimate is based partly on the fact that
Pan-American owns more than a ma
jority OF the outstanding Mexican Petro-
leum stock and partly on the fact that
the junior issue will be able to get twice
as much or more out of the new British
company that is being formed. The rise
In both issues was said to be due to a
better appreciation of the earning pos
abilities from the new British company
and the contracts between the concerns.
At any rate the rise was not due to
short covering. but represented buying
of the first importance.

Some Active specuaItIe..

A few Of the Industrial specialties, in
which there is considerable speculative
interest displayed much activity yester-
day and some of them advanced into
new high ground. This did not appear
to be confined to any one class of stocks,
but was more or less general among
these specialties. The marines, mac
hinery, and alcohol issues all participant
ed to a greater or less extent. The
announcement that President Franklin
had sailed from Europe on his return
journey no doubt was reflected in the
Marine movement, considering the gem
eral belief that on his return some action
on the deferred dividends would be
taken. The return of George ]. whelan
from abroad and his optimistic state
ments concerning the future OF American
business across the sea was the signal
for a moderate rise In United Retail
Stores. United States Industrial Alcohol
moved upward sharply on short covering
and new bear movement in American
Telephone and Telegraph sent that
stock down nearly 2 points to low of
99A. This movement was based on a
revival OF the story that important
telephone financing cannot be much
longer deferred. A new preferred stock
is accepted generally as the means to
be employed.

Anglo-French bonds,

An interesting situation developed
yesterday in connection with Anglo
French bonds, banking house finding
that a purchase OF 100000 bonds
brought no rise whatever in the market
On investigation it was found that
holders Of these bonds in Norway. Den
mark and Switzerland were offering
their holdings freely. making their profit
out of the depreciation in their ex-
changes During the war when the dol
lar was at a discount when expressed

short term bonds. They picked these
issues up easily and quietly Now that
the dollar is at premium when ex-
pressed in European exchange these

coup in these issues The result of the
peculiar selling is trat the yield on
Anglo-French bonds maturing during

He writes, After wearing a pair of
Ne6lin-solcd shoes off and on for
thirty-thrce months, / wore them on
a trip to the volcano of kiIauea and
walked around the crater over hot lava
six times and still the soles showed
only slight signs Of wear"
