Market Nelus

NEW YORK, Feb. 14-Aside from a general strengthening of the banking position. as indicated by returns to the federal reserve board. the week in the stock market opened with no visible change from recent dull and uncertain conditions.
 The adverse transportation situation was attested by further decrease of railway tonnage, there being more idle freight cars on the principal roads, ac- cording to authoritative statements than at any period in the last decade.
 Improvements in grain prices created a more cheerful sentiment at western and southwestern agricultural centers. but this was largely neutralizea- by wage reductions, suspended dividends and evidence of diminishing invest ment demand.
 Mexican petroleum, Baldwin loco motive, Stakeholder and Atlantic Gulf at net gains of ? to points contributed mainly to the strong close in the stock market. United States steel also was conspicuous. Sales 500,000 shares.
 In the money market all call loans held at per cent on the exchange, but eased fully one per cent in private of ferings. British and other leading for eign remittances were better except Scandinavian rates.
 Liberty bonds were irregular, the BIAS displaying further heaviness. Mos other domestic and foreign issues were without definite trend on a moderate turnover. Total sales, par value, $12,- 650,00o.

OF Bush's fielding the outstanding
feature always was his throwing. In
that, more than In anything else, Bush
stood apart. He had an uncanny abil-
ity to Judge the speed Of a runner on
his way to first. He never seemed to
hurry throw, and he seemed never
to throw with speed. Most of the
time he apparently lobbed the ball,
but he always got his man, sometimes
by a fraction of q step-but he got
him. This ability of Bush's was al
ways a matter Of amaZement to spec
tators and they could never solve the
riddle of It.

sistsnt military attache at London and
on the British front in Flanders, and
was with the American Army Of oc-
cupation In Germany. For his valu-
able work he was awarded the Brit
ish Military Cross. Recently he wrote
Washington ClOse-Ups," a series of
character sketches Of eminent figures
In the national capital, which the

For two years Mr.. Lowry has been
making a close study Of the business
Of the government. He is given credit
In congress for his aid In passing the
budget bill and in bringing about the
naming of the joint committee Of the
house and senate to investigate and
report upon the administration and Or
ganlzation OF the government executive
departments. He now wants the peo-
pie of the United States to know the
details Of the United States govern
ment, which Is their business. He be-
lieves the knowledge of these details
will make of them better Americans
and give them a better government.
ANO IlOt Will IOW-
rvs high ideal could have carried out
this study of the government business
so exhaustlvely and palnstakingly as
has he. Probably he now knows more
about II than any other man In the
world. With extraordinary persever-
ance and logged persistence he went
after hidden facts and multifarious de-
talls-and got them. Nothing was too
big for his comprehension or too small
for his attention. At one time he went
to a member Of the cabinet with the
statement that the government had on
its payrolls, exclusive of the officers
and men of the army and navy, one
employee for each 68 people Of the
United States ten years of age and
over engaged In galnful occupations.
1t took that cabinet officer, with the
assistants he had at his command, a
considerable time, and considerable eff
fort to verify Mr.. Lowry's statement,
but he found 1t to be true.
AS the result of his careful studies
Mr.. Lowry has written a series Of ar
ticles on the business of government
.lcome and expense; where the money
comes from, and how and for what II
is spent; whether the organization of
the business side of government Is eff
Client or inefficient; whether the gov.
eminent wastes the money we give 1t.
The series Is not In any sense politi.
cal. 1t Is not an attack, not a muck.

conceded, acknowledged facts. These
facts come from the men in the gov.
ernment-from the government itself
and they are an facts that every

LONGEST ODDS TURF WINNER
Wishing Ring at Latonia Romped
Home, Paying Holders Of 81 Mu-
fuels $1,s955o Each.

Here's the answer to numerous
queries as to which was the longest
priced winner In turf history:
Wishing Ring, running at LatOnIa,
KY on June II, 1912, galloped home
in front Of big field. Each holder
Of 50 mutuel ticket was paid
$1,Ss5.50. which made the odds about
941 to against Wishing Ring. Those
figures are greater than the ones In
volving any other long shot in his
tory.
Two horses staggered across the
line a winner with bOOkmaker odds
Of 800 to l quoted against them. One
was Peytonia, which won at Chicago,
June %, 1894. The other was Bright
Skies, victor In Oakland, Cal, Feb
ruary 10, 1909.
