He was soon speaking to Newton
Wheatley. He was brief in stating his

did not go to his father for funds
WELL he had his reasons, and it was
rather a private matter. Wheatley, of
course, remembered the near-wedding.
The old iron man was silent for
what seemed to Dale very long time.
Then his voice came over the wire
with an almost ominous calm:
"Who besides you has seen this vein,
Carlyle? Anybody that knows coalT
"Yes, my father" Dale answered
quickly. He went over it years ago.
Ask him about the coal in David More

phone me. I'm waiting at the Blais-

Wheatley agreed a little reluctantly.
Dale waited patiently for fifteen
minutes. Then the clerk called him
to the phone. He took up the receiver
with bOyish eagerness.
Wheatley began cordially: Your IA

SCOUTS TO PROTECT PARKS.

Fifty boy scouts have been sworn
in as Essex county IN. j.. police

in preventing the destruction of prop

THE CUBAN ELECTION.

If the influence Of the United States government in Cuba is what it should be the election squabble in the island republic should be terminated in accord with the acceptance by this government of the choice of pr. Alfredo zayas.
 Cuba hasn't gotten to the point as yet where it is ready to adjust such matters in accord with the verdict at the ballot box, or to accept readily steps which are taken to overcome irregularities. From such an investigation as was made by General Crowder it was found that there were districts where fraud had been practiced making 1t necessary to hold new elections at those points. Even the carrying out of this measure met with such resentment from the opponents of l Zayas that they kept their forces from I the polls and his election though dis closed by tho ballots has never been pro- claimed by the Cuban congress.
 General Gomez, as the head of the party opposing Zayas, and who was de feated, sought to strengthen his appeal by coming to this country in person and presenting his case to- the department of state, relying possibly upon change in administration to gain support.
 The present administration by it's re
 ported decision stands by the report and action of General Crowder, the aceredit.
 ed representative of this government.
 It is the decision that was anticipated It is only what Cuba must have antici pated in view of the insistence upon or derly government and honest elections Il When Gomez came here he is creditet

rENnING noWNMARn.

There are several reasons for believing at the present time that the downward movement has not come to permanent halt That 1t may have in certain lines is possible. Perhaps readjustments have proceeded more rapidly in those cases but there Is evidence that in others the movement is still in effect and the bene- fit will be felt directly and indirectly throughout the country.
 The recent announcement by the steel corporation to the effect that prices of its products would be further reduced will mean encoura cement for the re- sumption of activities which have been more or less at standstill. There may be some hesitation in the hopes of ad- ditional reductions but the downward movement in the price of steel products is bound to be regarded in a favorable light Steel prices have long been re- garded as a business barometer. There are other big concerns which have an- nomced re1uced prices which will lend assistance to those engaged in agricul- tpre as wsn as those engaged in con struction work. These are not initial re ductions but have followed other cuts and are made in the hopes of increasing ac. tivities and stimulating business to a point considerably beyond where they are
