The transfer of Patrolwoman Mary
A. Hamilton out of the woman's pre-
cinct in West Thirty seventh Street.
Of which she was head, followed the
assignment of patrolmen to the Adam
less paradise she had made out of that
formerly dingy police station, it was
learned yesterday.
The patrolmen were assigned to the
station by Mrs. George w. Loft, Spe-
cial Deputy Police Commissioned, over
the protest Of Mrs. Hamilton, who
thought that the masculine element
was not only unnecessary, but unde-
sirable in a police station which dealt
only with the cases of women.
When Mrs. Loft took charge she
found that Mrs. Hamilton had con-
verted the old West Thirty-seventh
Street police station from foul smell
ing, vermin-ridden building into beau
tifully appointed home for women who
were detained by the police.
Had Enright's Approval
Mrs. Hamilton's plan. approved by
Commissioner Enright, was to detain
women prisoners at this precinct,
rather than to send them to cells in
the various station houses. The pre-
cinct was entirely manned" by women.
One of the first moves made by Mrs.
Loft after assuming charge was to have
assigned to the precinct a number of
policemen. These men made it manda-
tory for any woman visiting the station
to talk first with them before seeing
the woman commissioner or the police
women.
Mrs. Hamilton entered vigorous
objection. Mrs. Loft reminded her tina
she was but policewoman and Mrs.
Loft was the commissioner. Mrs. Ham
ilton was told that she might be guilty
of characterization. Mrs. Hamilton's
attention was called, too, to the fact

OKLAHOMA OIL PRICES
 AFFECT KY. CRUDE
Increase in Price Paid for Somerset Grades of Crude Oil Equalizes Difference Wit h Mid Continent Fields.

oil City. Sept. 1o-Equalization Of the difference in the cost of the son. erset (Kentucky) grades of crude oil and that from the Mid-Continent field, according to interests close to the Standard Oil Company, are largely responsible for the increase in the price paid for Somerset. when of unchanged crude prices. nave been increased to s1.1O for the heavy and $125 for the light grades.
 This increase in price still makes it possible, it is explained, for somerset lower priced Mid-Continent grades at charges cilsI " are taken into considera- ton.
 At the same time it is admitted that product on of the Somerset grades has not been holding up, and they are not quite so easy to obtain.
 In the Pennsylvania crude fields the increase in price is viewed with con- siderable interest, and opinions are conflicting.
 Increase in Penn Doubtful.
 While it is generally admitted that the increase in the price Of Somerse5 should have effect abit5lng Bpon crnde n6e markets generally, independent re- liners believe that the continued scar city of an outlet for anything but gasoline precludes the probability of
 
 grade in the near future.
 Because there is little moving in the line of refined products excepting gasoline, and that under such condi- a barrel less than Pennsylvania affords nearly as much gasoline, one reflner believes that it is not likely that an increase in price will come. Looking at the situation from the producers side, there is ample ground for encouragement
 For some time past Independent buyers and producers of crude have been paying a premium of ten cents a barrel above the market. It is un- derstood that no great amounts of oil have changed hands at this fig ure.
 oil is storing it, and many who are selling part with only enough to take care of current expenses. Al the same time some encouragement though it is slight. there has been | a decrease in stocks in the Oklahoma field.
 Competition Is Keenest. Summarizing conditions from in- l formation received through various | sources, it seems as if the future is entierly speculative
 | The increase in Somerset prices | might stimulate buying in specula- | tive circles interested in the Penn syIvania grade, and, however, plentf' | full lower priced grades may be. suct | a movement would inevitably result | in a higher figure.

COUNTY FARMERS
 PLANT FALL CROP
Market Here Proves Success fuI-To Keep It Open
 This Winter

Announcement was made yesterday l by w. J. Milan, manager of the Jeff ferson County Truck Growers asso- citation, that the market of that or ganization at Morris avenue and Twenty fourth street, will be kept open during the fall and winter for the benefit of Birmingham house. wives.
 The market was first opened in the early spring, and has been a very successful undertaking for the organization during the summer. Each day hundreds of farmers have brought fruits and vegetables to it, and the housewives of the city have grown accustomed to buying their Vegetables from local truck growers.
 Truck growers in the neighbocing sections have planted number of fall and winter crops, and it is be- lieved there will be enough to justify the market being kept open during the winter. Among the vegetables that will be brought to the city will be sweet potatoes, Irish potatoes, spinach, turnips, rape, collards onions and parsley. During the win ter the market will also handle eggs and imported fruits.
 Members of the Jefferson County Truck Growers association hope their market will be the nucleus around which large municipal market will eventually develop.

New York. September 10. - The steel trade Is hopeful that the worst is over in the steel market. August business, however, failed to show much expansion and the demand con tinues largely of a jobbing charac- ter to replenish exhausted supplies Here and there some fairly good s'zed orders are being placed, but the buying is not general and the tone continues barely steady, as pro- ducers are very anxious for business and competition is still keen. Pig iron continues to improve both in regard to the volume of sales and the price. Production is guided by demand and is slowly increasing as the market seems to warrant
 No important volume of business has been reported in the copper mar ket, but the undertone has shown in- creasing firmness since the small lots recently offered below the 12 cent level were absorbed by the buying of late last month. It is now report ed that no electrolytic is offering be- low 1Shc to 12Ac delivered, while producers are asking h to A higher for forward shipments.
