Red Sox Shut Out Yankee
BUILDING PROGRESS IN NORWICH

The shortage in building materials,
 such as cement and plaster of paris es
 pecially, still continues and it is a case
 of hand to mouth in building, ma terials
 being used up as fast as they arrive and
 then suspending operations until more
 material arrives. Several contracts are
 held up because the work has reached
 the plastering stage and very little plas-
 ter is obtainable at the present time
 There is a little cement in town only
 about two contractors having any on hand while the other contractors are without any depending upon the small supply that is in town.
 During the past week only one build ing application has been filed with Fire
 Marshal Howard L. Stanton. This appli- cation is for permission to erect an ad dition to the house owned by John Vol ski at 62 Fountain street. MT. Wolsks is to erect g veranda on his house 42x5 1-2 feet The construction is of frame with a tin roof.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET WAS PROFESSIONAL.

New York. July 26.-The session of the stock exchange today was again given over largely to professional trad CTS. That element made vigorous ex- tensions of recent commitments on the short side, meeting with considerable success in the absence of public support.
 Prices crumpied precipitately in the last hour, the most active period of the day, when call money advanced to 10 per cent, after having opened and re- mained in free supply at 8 per cent. The rise in loans was coincident with reports of additional withdrawal of government funds from local institutions tomorrow.
 Oils, steels, equipments, motors and specialties of no especial description lost much ground in the setback towards the close. but standard rails and the more substantial industrials also yielded cas- fly.
 Mexican Petroleum registered a net loss of 1-2 points, Vanadium 1-2. an-American 3-S Crucible 34 Baldwin 1-2, Studebaker 3 3-4. In- ternational Paper , 1-2 and Retail Stores 3 1-4 United States Steel. which is ex- pected 10 make a favorable showing in the second quarterly report to be pub lished tomorrow, lost two points. Sales amounted to 5000 shares.
 News over the weekend contributed to the days unSettlemenb While conGl- tions in Central Europe were reported to be better, private advices dealing with other European matters occasioned some concern in international banking circles. British and French exchange were lit tie more than firm. but varying degrees of strength were shown by remittances to Belgium, Italy and Germany.

Through some error there was a con- flict of dates in the Woodmen of Amer ica schedule and the Woodmen were unable to play the Colonial team of Norwich.
 To do Colonials a favor the Oxoboxo baseball club cancelled their game with the fast Chesterfields and consented to play the Colonial team which had lost every game during the season. When the Colonial team arrived at the Montville field Captain Gould met the captain and manager of the Colon ials and explained that the Woodmen were unable to play and that Manager Greene of the Woodmen had mailed a carc cancelling their game, and arrang- ing the game with the Oxoboxos. Cap tain Gould told the Colonials that the Oxoboxos would give them ten dol ars, the same amount that they were

 When the Colonials went back to Norwich they put a write up in The Bulletin which stated that the Colonials were not i'll the habit of playing

 And Colonials. The Oxoboxos are good losers and not a bunch of sore heads. Perhaps twenty-five runs may swell your heads but when you learn that only five were earned srunC you may come down peg. If the OXobc- boXos are such q poor team and the Colonials such masters of the science how do you account for twelve earned runs? It is no credit for any team of your wonderful playing ability to let the infnrior Oxeboxns score twelve runs.
 Dear ColoniaIs, if you are suck a wonderful team, please do not lose your head by winning one game. Step up and accept our offer. We offer you the chance to play us on first class diamond and if you can defeat us with the same team fifteen dollars are yours as a present.

be exercised in this respect, In view
of the Presidents unfortunate physi-
cal condition, and without sacrifice of
interests a million times more impor-
tant than the state of mind or body
of any Individual, it is highly probable
that the sentimental concession would
be wasted. Once before Mr.. Will
SON has demanded such a verdict at
the polls, and when 1t was rendered
and rendered against him, 1t was ig-
nored by the appellant as completely
as if it had not been asked and had
not been registered in the unmistak-
able arithmetic of November, 1918.
Governor Cox's last hour appeal for
votes for himself on the ground that
his election might enable sick Presi-
dent to lay aside the responsibilities
of office before the completion of his
term is not the least remarkable ex-
pedient of a campaign Of shifty and
slantindicular politics.

Not the ROOrback So Much as the
Men Behind 1t.

Most of the big Democratic news
papers had the honesty and the de-
cency to denounce the perpetrators,
active and passive, of the Chancellor
SANDER. But the EUening Post, wrIing
with anxiety over the fate of Cox, has
no such criticism. 1t Is for dismissing
the Islander as of no moment:
There is only one rule concerning
roorbacks let loose in the last min
utes of political campaign: Pay no
attention 10 them
The voters are not so much con-
cerned about the roorback as they
are about the willing beneficlaries of
it. They know that the SANDER was
false. But they are going to pay at
tention to the Democratic politicians
who welcomed the SANDER and who
paid for its dissemination. The quick
and direct way to pay attention to
these ignoble creatures is to vote
against JAMES NJ. Cox and FRANKLIN
ID. ROOSEVELT, the principal beneti-
Charles of the Ohio blackguards.

WATCH THE COMPASS.
Agitations of the Needle Predicted
After November B.

To- THE NEW YORK HERALD Here
is a new science. You can get
certain information about the weather
in advance by means of a pocket conf
pass If you will take the time to OBJ
serve closely the changes in its move
inouts. AS Burbank says, most wonder
full things can be accomplished IL a man
only had sufficient time to devote to
the work.
AS the earth advances in its orbit
around the sun it becomes subjected
to increased force Of planets, moon or
stars in certain positions; then this re-
polling force decreases. AS an Illus
tration. the universal repelling force
against the earth will increase about
November or and November is. If
we watch the needle of the compass
November s, s, and 8. also November
IS, 16 and II, we can notice the I'M
usual variety of movements of the needle
or its increased vibrations.
The positions of the planets Mercury,
Jupiter and Neptune and the moon on
November or will cause the needle
Of the compass to begin n variety of
movements or a series of increased
movements which end November Z, so
far as those causes arc concerned.
When the needle begins a new series
of such agitations from its normal posi-
ton it will be warm for about day.
then the next day or two it will be
cooler, unless counteracted by some other
planetary opposition. In other words,
il will he cooler during the period when
the needle of the compass is showing a
new series of unusual disturbances from
its normal position.
Therefore II the needle of the COM
pass tells the truth, II will be warmer
about November or and cooler by
November and It will be warmer about
November Is and cooler by November
16 or II.
The real cause OF the compass needle
beginning a new series OF increased agi-
tations is due 10 the little orbit planes
of the little invisible systems of the
steel needle trying TO align with the
little orbit planes OF the little invisible
systems of the matter of the sun, moon
or planets involved. ID. A. ". GROVER.

MEAT PACKERS OPPOSE
NEW RAILROAD RATES
File Protest With I. &. C..
Against Denurrage.

WASHINGTON. Nov. 1.-The Institute
of American Meat Packers announced
here to-day that IL had served notice
upon the railroads in effect that at
tempts to increase charges and rates TO
an unreasonable and unjustifiable extent
will be met with vigorous opposition.
With q score Of other shippers. the an
nouncement said. the packers to-day
protested to the Interstate Commerce
Commission against new demurrage
rates filed by the carriers, effective De-
cember 1, and asked hearing.
These are the same tariffs the rail-
roads recently sought to impose on less
than the regular statutory notice of
thirty days." the statement said, adding
that the commission had denied the plea.
The proposal of the railroads, as now
reassented, II added. was to increase de-
murrage charges by dollar a day for
the first seven days and by five dollars
a day for every day thereafter
ALLEGED detention figures quoted by
the carriers" the statement continued
were based on antiquated statistics
and do not disclose true facts. Subnor-
NAL and crippled yard service through
out the country, together with punched
deliveries, account for much of the de-
tention actually chargeable to the car
riers, but for which the shippers Of the
country would he penalized under the
proposed increases"

on the day of mailing. When the
edition which attracted our correspon-
dents attention was ready to be sent
out there was delay in making pay
ment owing to the necessity of getting
money from the receiver in this city.
The periodicals were weighed and put
in sacks at the printers and carried
to the station ON October IL. The
postal authorities could not take them
away until the postage was paid. And
as this was not done until October Is
they were left as our correspondent
described them.
The acting postmaster at Green
wich "was informed he should not
have permitted the sacks of maya
zines in question to be taken to the
depot platform until the postage had
been paid" and hereafter the matter
is to have his personal attention.
Thus ends an incident of postal
reformation in which the Postmaster
General acted promptly and effectively
on learning of an occurrence which
might well disturb the minds of per-
sons anxious to have confidence in Mr..
BURLEsoN's establishment. We re-
cord it with pleasure to the credit of
Mr.. BURLEsoN and with satisfaction
for the part this newspaper was able
to play in it.

What OF Dry Night Under the
Bright Lights?

No election night throng has ever
wandered up and down a dry Broad
way. No crowd of bulletin watchers
has ever stood for hours far from the
hospitable doors of whistle wetting
establishment. No great concourse OF
Americans has ever yelled itself
hoarse over the result of an election
without a kind of stimulation which
cannot be won from ice cream soda.
Tonight New York Is promising it
self great outburst Of enthusiasm.
That Broadway will be as arid as our
white ribbon friends would like 10
have il is open TO reasonable doubt.
The sly bootlegger will be on the JOB.
Here and there will be a man who
knows q little place. All hip pockets
will not be empty. Yet by and large
the evening will not be wet, and for
most of the celebrators it will not be
even damp.
Can pretty girl muster up courage
to throw q handful of confetti in the
face of cold sober gentleman whose
sole introduction to her Is the fact
that he is walking down Broadway
near the old country club? How will
the same young woman act if an utter
stranger without the excuse of an
alcoholic exhilaration shoves a NINA
ture feather buster in her face? And
will tea and coffee and near beer sup
port the spirits which in the past
were kept high by other spirits?
New York Is going at its first pro-
hibition election evening with faith
and sustaining memories. We hope it
can make good.

MR.. COX MISTAKEN.
A Point Overlooked In the Parable OF
the Good Samaritan.

To THE New YORK HERALD: In a
recent speech Mr.. Cox gave an up 10
date version of the parable of the man
who fell among thieves. He said that
when Christ was heckled by certain
lawyer His answer was given on the
spur of the moment with a fash of
genius"
This TO some religious people may
seem unduly hippant, but that is not
my reason for calling attention to this
speech. The point that interests me is
that Mr.. Cox in lauding the good Sa-
maritan overlocks the fact that the
Samaritan went voluntarily TO tho rescue
OF the wounded man. And that is what
Senator Harding stands for.
Let us give aid voluntarily to for
eign nations In distress, and not be-
cause we are forced to do so.
