Seventy-fve Couples Enjoy
Dancing After Excellent
Concert Program

With Henault's orchestra of eight
pieces playing at its best merry
party OF dancers enjoyed themselves
IN fythian Hall until an early houl
today. The occasion was the grand
Easter Ban given under the auspices

IN evidence. The decorations were
elaborate and bore proof of the artis-
tic ability of the decorators. One Of

Easter colors of green and gold and
white and purple while the American
flag predOminated in the other hall.
A huge flag adorned the partition se-
perating the rooms.

ed everyone present, preceded the

ADJ. GENERAL
TELLS VALUE OF
NATIONAL GUARD
Mayor Savage In Dedication
Address Also Praises
Work of Militia

After the ceremony of the delivery
of the keys of the Newport Armory
or Tuesday, Adjutant General Her
bert T. johnson spoke a few
moments, in an informal manner to
the audience, outlining the benefits
and advantages OF the National
Guard. He reviewed briefly the
work of the National Guard IN past
years.
In particular, he emphasized the
readiness, and expedition with which
the National Guard can bemobilized
and called into action. At the out
break of the World War, the Nation
al Guard of Vermont was called into
action and made up large part sot
the Yankee or 10th Division, whose
deeds of bravery are legion. In fact
the 26th division was made up entire
ly of National Guard troops, halling
from Vermont, Massachusetts, and
from the other state in New England.
OF the first three divisions, to be
sent overseas, two of them were
composed entirely of National Guard
troops, and of the first five divisions
to cross the Atlantic TO France, TO
fight with the Hun, three were made
up of the guardsmen. Thus, from the
fine records, achieved by these Ma
tional Guard organizations in France,
it was proved that the militia could
cope with the best drilled and most
strictly disciplined troops in the
world.
The nreSent organization of the
National Guard is especially advan-
tageous to the Government of the
United States. The militia has be-
come federalized and is now branch
of the United States Army

There was no news In Wall Street

ground character. to account for the
sharp rise in Republic After closing on
Monday under so. it shot up yesterday
afternoon to 54M. a gain Of more than
five points on the day. At its close of
say, its net gain from Monday was
AZ points Although the other steel
stocks moved UP along with the rest
OF the list. none of them compared with
Republic In its almost rocket-lllSe ad-
vance. and when 1t was all over Wall
Street. generally, was unable to ac-
count for the jump. All steel stocks
have been more or less neglected In
recent months and. even with the i'm
provement reported in the industry in
the last fortnight. not many traders are
willing 10 buy the steels. They seem TO
have formed a decided aversion to
them A reason for that aversion Is the
reiterated declaration. heard in almost
every commission house in the Street.
that the steel industry Is one of the
very few basic industries which have
not been thoroubhly liduidated. There
are those outside Of the financial dis
trict, who take an opposite view, but
Wall Street is unanimous In It's opioon.

A Snappy Close.

After a more or less dull day. during
a part of which stocks looked rather
sick, there was sudden resumption OF
buying just a few minutes before the
close and prices ran up with amazing
ease. Traders behind the move did not
ccnfine themselves to particular stocks
or groups of stocks, but went right
through the list Of active issues. The
railroad shares were used as the start
ing lever for the movement in the nnal
fifteen minutes. Not long after the an
nouncement OF the regular dividend on
Great Northern preferred these issues
began to climb. Apparently 1t was the
signal for concerted buying all over
the list and In a few minutes there was
a steady and rapid upward movement
wich made 1t mighty difficult for
shorts to cover. From information OBJ
tanned in commission houses about the
Street, It is not believed that the sharp
upturn was the result Of short covering
but OF a sudden and unexpected drive
against the bear position, timed to the
point where 1t was all over and the
market closed before those on the wrong
side of the market had had chance to
get out of II.

BERLIN GOVERNMENT
TO CONTROL EXCHANGE
MGy Take ODer Issuing of All
Foreign Bills.

BERLIN, Sept. 13.-With view to
counteracting insensate Bourse specu-
lation, the Government, according to ths
Tdgebtdtt, Is contemplating steps to es-
tablish some measure OF control oil the
money market by a system of ration
ing or, as a last resort, sequestrating
foreign currencies or bills thrown on
the market in excess OF what is regarded
as legitimate requirements.
The difficulties of such Intervention
are obvious. and. the Tdgobldtt learns.
II would not be resortcd to except in
the last extremity.
AS an. alternative the Government is
reported to be seeking a means to In
ducc German exporters and Industrial
lists TO transfer, without compulsion on
their part, their foreign bills to the
Treasury. The TdOebldtf Is of the opin-
ion that the time to intervene Is now.
and that all acquisitions OF foreign cur
rencies or bills should be immediately
placed under Government control.

the fair price that that city should pay

cluding physical properties and future
earnings. to be s40.000,000. and that a

market value of the company's securities.

the neighborhood OF Sf6.000.000. The
report of the City Engineer was made
at the request of the San Francisco
Board Of Supervisors and Is believed to
be preliminary to the adoption of an
ordinance by that body calling for a
direct referendum to the people on the
question as to whether the city shall
purchase the properties of the company
which was reorganized last April from
the old United Railways of San Fran

NOR In Wall Street that Thomas w. La

out a statement after the close that
would be exceedingly bullish, especially
with reference to securities on which our
Mexican relations have had more less in

pretty generally known In the Street

 Carpenter is the popular man with the ex-soldiers of the army in Europe as boxer, for when he was in the French army, as an avia- ter, he was always ready to teach an amateur to box, and would al ways enter a foot race, wrestling match or any kind of sport.

 On the second day, the drivers will leave Elko for Wells, thence south to Ely and over the Midland trail to Tonopah, where they will stop on the second night.
