-. O-


has been a delightful change in
4 the market today. 1t is more than vel
come The stability that was displayed
yesterday was again in evidence this
morning from the very opening Of the
market. 1t. was noticeable then that
buing orders ywere appearing through
buying orders were appearing through
well distributed throughout the active
list Brokers, in executing these orders,
soon found that the supply OF stocks had
Z been materially diminished.
1t IS not so easy to buy as hereto
fore, and this had the usual effec Of
creating uneasiness among those who
were stil committed to the short side of
the market. And later in the day there
was an active demand from this element
to even their commitments and, as re-
suit, the market became more active,
with some fairly good advances in
values
The immediate reason FOR this change
must no doubt be looked for in the mar
ket's technical position. There is
nothing in the -ay OF commercial or
financial changes to account for it.
6 though the comparative ease In the
money market recently is a contributing
element to a moderate extent.
At the present time, there is no
certainty as TO just how soon business
conditions throughout the world will i'm
prove. Some hope for i change is seen
In the coming fall. Some financial ex-
perts are pessimistic- But, whatever the
ultfmtae result may be. we have dis
counted conditions as they exist at the
present time, and even in the absence
of Affirmative reasons for an advance, we
are entitled at least TO a temporary period
of stability with a further recovery IN
values.

Captain Sees $4,000
Injury in Word 'Rotter'
Sues Over Terms Alleged to
Have Been Applied
to T5.x~,

The word "rotter" does not appear
in the Standard Dictionary, so per-
haps it has no official definition, but
Captain William Oswald Bergman
says it is a derogatory and dsparaging
term and, having been called that, he
has decided that it will take $4,000 to
aassuage his injured feelings and atone
Tor the social injury it's alleged appli-
cation to him has done.
Captain Bergman alleges in his
complaint, that on August Is last Paul
Edwards, in the presence of several
persons, said, Captain Bergman is a
perfect rotter," and that he was anx-
lous to find certain Mrs. Cornell and
tell her what a perfect rotter he had
found Captain Bergman to be.
Captain Berryman's understanding of
the term rotten, land. he alleges, it was
so understood by the persons who
heard Mr.. Edwards, is a person who is
lacking IN honesty and integrity and is
wholly untrustworthy and unfit for
social intercourse. Captain Bergman
says that before the alleged statement
OF Mr.. Edwards, Mrs. Cornell had
acted as hostess to him on occasions
and that since then she has ceased to
receive him and ne has been deprived
OF association with her and her friends.
Mr.. Edwards, the defendant, is said
to be related to Guillermo Edwards.
one of the wealthiest men in Chile
and who is associated with the Gug-
genhelms IN mining properties in

ported was in the Bronx.
Commenting on the situation DR..

yet does not know the origin or a rem
edy for infantile paralysis and that the
only things to do are to be careful not
to mix in crowds, not to touch the
mouth or nose with the hands, to- wash
the hands before eating, colds" how
ever slight, should be watched and
treated Immediately, and attention
must be given to general care of the
