believed that every effort will be
made by the Berlin government to

PERKINS for MAYOR

Anyone who is willing
o take responsibility and
has confidence In his judg-
nent can set himself up
as a leader. Successful
leadership consists in per-
feet teamwork and the
successful leader is he
who surrounds himself
with an organization
where there Is a perfect
interchange of ideas, with
ability on his part of in
viting free and frank dis
russion and criticism by
members of his team and
then arriving at a decision
which the entire team will
undertake to carry out.
The duty of the people
S not only to select a sue
ceSsful leader, but TO Sc
Iect one whose aspirations
are bound up with the
happiness and well being
Of the people he serves.

While there were many good points i'll
the stock market today and many favor
able conditions il business that warrant
n reasonable degree of optimism, never
tho less. it is quite apparent that we
heve still some weak spots and appar-
entity sufficient weakness to neutralize
the good.
At the moment. the market weakness
is centered il the sugar group. with
American Sugar establishing new lows
and but very limited market even after
a sharp decline for the preferred stock
and considerable uncertainty with regard
to the final outcome of the affairs OF the
Cuba Cane Company. This mas ten
dency to discourage some prospective
buyers but there is no element in this
that will prove favorable. 1t is the com
mon knowledge as "a the difficulties t1at
have been experienced by the sugar IN
terests, nj we are near 20 the point
where the final announcements Will have
to be made as to new financing.
In other respects conditions are de
veloping satisfactorily.
Heretofore we have been dependent
mainly On gencralities in regard to i'm
proved business, but the figures pub
iished by the Rock Island Railroad
throws much light and shows in detail
where actual Improvement has occurred.
For illustration during the month OF
September the shipment of oil ears in
creased from 1872 to 6.637, lumber ears
increased from 81 to tl2, cement and
similar products Increased from 2o5 ~
.766. while general merchandise increased
from 1517 to 2S.030. This will tell III
the end. but temporarily the market acts
sluggish and we may have some reaction
before the upward movement Is resumed.

By MONITOR.
NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-Transactions IN
Mondays stock market were on a some
what restricted scale, as 4 result proba-
bly, of the observance of the Jewish
holiday. The tone Of the market was
irregularly steady, with frmness par
ticularly notable in the medium priced
oil shares. The street is firmly convinced
that the corner has been turned in the
petroleum producing industry, as sur
plus stocks never were excessive, and the
curtailment of drilling operations is GER
tain to be reflected in reduced production
inside of a few months. There was less
activity in the coppers and the steels
were without special feature.
In the rail group Lehigh Valley was
an outstanding feature of strength, al
though a late reaction on profit taking
left quotations unchanged from Satur-
day. In the financial district there is
a good deal Of curiosity regarding the
segregation plan that is expected to be
announced in the near future. Among
the industrials the weakest point was
represented by the sugar shares. More
pressure developed in the case of Ameri-
can Sugar Refining, both common and
preferred. in spite of the premium with
which short sellers are confronted. The
preferred stock broke Az points on
moderate transactions.
Commission houses found the attention
of their clients largely diverted to the
cotton market, where an early advance
carried prices up about 100 points above
Saturdays closing and break of 200
points following the publication of the
Government condition report was sue
ceeded by a recovery of about 100 points.
