Stocks Gain,
Then React,
But Close Up
Bond Quotations Soar to
New High Levels for the
Year; Wheat and Cotton
Higher; Money Easier

After revealing frmncss through
most of the session. stock prices Just
before the last hour sagged sharply as
a selling wave prevailed, but toward
the close the forces making for strength
became again dominant, The net re-
suit Of tho days trading, therefore, was
higher average prices for both rail-
road and industrial stocks.
Railroad shares were conspicuous In
the upturn. Market optimism obvious
ly does not rest on past performances,
but on future anticipHtions. The Oc-
tober earnings statements tell again
the familiar story Of decreased gross
earnings compared with = year ago,
but most of the carriers revealed gains
in net The significant feature Of the
statements is the extent to which they
show the ability Of tho management
Of the roads to get the matter Of ex-
penses under control.
AS many individual stocks reached
new high levels for the year, bonds con-
ttnued to move upward, and the aver
age prices were once moro at the
highest mark thus far In 1921. Foreign
bonds, on which the yield to the in
vestor is still higher than on high
grade domestic issues. benefited es-
pecially from yesterdays buying and
United States government Issues were
in especial demand. Victory ~ wore
quoted at par.
The weakness in tho stock market,
after the early strength and before the
final rally, was seemingly due to profit
taking and to some short selling for a
quick turn.
After an early decline, cotton prices
toward the close became Arm and
closed with gains of to IS points
Wheat quotations closed 2A cents
higher. Buying was stimulated by the
official report Of an unprecedentedly
short crop condition in Kansas, and
gossip regarding an unsatisfactory
start on the winter crop in the South
west.
Sterling and the European exchanges
were slightly easier. Call loan rates
dropped to AZ per cent

Argentine Loan Negotiations

Bankers in the financial district who
would be in position to know of any
negotiations for a new $4,000, 900 loan
to Argentina, as reported in the
mornings cables from Buenos Ayres,
said yesterday they had no specific in
formation relative to any such dis
cussions. Representatives of the bank
ing houses which brought out the
$50000,000 two-year Argentine note is
sue a few weeks ago declared they had
heard of no change in the situation It
was admitted that the Argentine gov
ernnent had been considering another
large loan, but it was not believed that
definite proposals with regard to such
new financing had been made. A mem
Der in one banking house said: The
success OF the recent loan and the es-
sentially sound position of Argen-
tina appear to justify rumors of new
financing. There can be little doubt
that Argentina can get all the money
it wants in New York if it meets the
prevailing market conditions" The
purpose of the new loan would be to
enable the Argentine government to
carry out program for the consolida-
tion of the public debt in the republic.
Indications are that this will not be
taken up actively until after the first

Standard Oil in Persia

Interests Of the Standard Oil Com
pany of New Jersey odmitted yesterday
that they had been asked by the Per-
sian government whether they would
be interested in certain Persian oil con-
cessions, but denied that any decision
had been reached regarding the pro-
posals. A. G. Bedford, chairman of the
board of directors, is scheduled to sail
for this country from Europe Novem-
ber 30, and shortly after his arrival
here full meeting Of the board will
be held to take action on the Persian
concessions. 1t is assumed that Mr..
Bedford will have important informa-
tion in this connection which the ca
bles to the United States have not men
toned. Officials here state there is at
present considerable uncertainty as to
how much Persian territory is free to
be allocated to the Standard Oil Com
pany.

runs. no sooner had the old beldame been gathered to her fathers than things began to happen. Sickness broke out among those laid under her curse; pigs and fowl died from no apparent cause; the atmosphere about the dwell irgs seemed charged with menacing in- fluences.
 With fear in their hearts the natives under affliction consulted an ancient warlock who advised that the only way of escape would be to disinter the bones of the witch, beat them to powder and burn them in the house in which she died This they did.
 With much eererhony and many in cantations by the old warlocll the bones were unearthed and transported to the house and the house itself burned down to the ground, to make assurance doubly sure. All supernatural manifestations, the natives declare, then ceased But misfortune, grevious and dire de- seconded from another quarter, The gov ernmcnt resident hearing of the affair summoned all who were connected with it to his presence and on the charge of arson sentenced them to various terms of hard labor on the roads of Tubuai.

By Associated Press

Papeete, Tahiti January s.-Drastic treatment, for witchctaft recently applied in the Island of Raivavae led to a charge of arson.
 The government resident then sen- fenced the natives concerned to hard labor on the roads in the neighboring island of Tubai. Raivavae is one of the islands of the Australian group to the south of Tahiti in the South Seas.
 Recently there died in that island an old woman who, during her lifetime Con account of her alleged powers of magic and vindictve temper) had held the is- flanders and particularly those of her old family connection in a state of fear To offend her, according to the native story. meant q speedy visitation of mis. fortune, sickness and even death upon those who had aroused her displcasure.
 For sometime before her death her wrath had been directed against some of her nearer relatives and conscious that her end was near. she warned them that her passing would fail to relieve them from her vengeance but that even from the shades her powers would pre- vail against them.
 curiousiy enough. the native story
