Daily Stock Letter.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK Aug. 3.-The New
York Evening Suns financial review
today said:
1t was rather obvious from the
course Of prices in today's stock
market that the liquidation move
ment of yesterday was overcome.
The opening was irregular. without
much pronounced change save in
some isolated cases. The recovery
was quick and broad, however most
losses being made good, and there
fore the list settled down to quiet
marking of time, with values holding
pretty well.
Strong and weak spots were never
theless quite numerously sprinkled
about. The oils were in good form
throughout and some OF the motors
enjoyed sporadic spurts forward. The
steels were distinctly nonresident.
The equipment issues were again
strong in company with the tendency
of the railroad descriptions.

FAITH
IN SURRENDER
Some People Do Not Think Villa In
tends to Retire, But Is Plot
ting Against Mexican
Authorities.

limited Press Leased Wire 'Service.l
Ell PASO, Tex, Aug. 3.--Failure
Of news to arrive hero that francisco
Villa, bandit chief, has reached Tor
reon to complete his surrender to the
De La Huerta government has caused
the belief to spread here that Villa
may not intend to surrender after
all, and is making the government
the object of another trick.
1t was pointed out today that on
scores of previous occasions the rebel
leader has misled the government,
and many Americans and Mexicans
here who are well posted on Mexican
affairs have never believed that Villa
intended to lay down his arms and
retire to private life.
To bear out their statements that
Villa has not agreed to complete
abandonment of his military organi-
zation. these persons declare that
even should he decide to settle down
on his ranch, It will require large
personal body guard and system
of sentry approaches to protect him
from the hundreds Of his personal
enemies.
And they add significantly that
Villa has never yet been caught or
guard.

Italy is not in honor, and yet as late
as 1865 Prof. Stoppani, the father of
modern geology, urged the Italians
to search for oil, as our suboil must
