TAGGING THE BASES

Young Francis again won for the Sen
ators, the recruit holding the White Sox
to pair of runs.
Bill Doak lost his first game of the
season, the Cards supporting him as a
cream puff supports a grand piano. They
came fast in the late innings, aided by
Hornsby's ninth homer of the season, but
the Braves early lead was too much.
Max Carey laid aside his cruiches for
the day. He hit two singles and a triple,
walked twice and stole three bases. Mean
while the Pirates disposed of the Phils,
10 to 3.
Home runs by Perkins and Miller, the
latter's being his tenth of the season, fur
nished the Athletics five runs but the
Tigers replied with six and that settled
it.
The Giants dropped their fifth straight,
and their third in a row TO the Reds.
The Indians won another from the lied
Sox, Uhle pitching well and Speaker,
Cuisto and O'Neill featuring with their
all-round work.
The rejuvenated Dodgers made it three
straight from the Cubs, trio of Chicago
pitchers getting the rough-dry treatment.
Jones started on the mound but departed
by request at the end of 3 % innings.
Mamaux went the entire route on high
for the Dodgers.

Short Session
Professional Operator
Capitalize Talk Of a
Radical Tax Policy In
the New G ngres s

Full effect was given yesterday in a
sharp decline in stock prices TO the
campaign of selling that over recent
sessions has made the market an
irregular and vaciliating affair. Pro-
fessional operators saw in the wide,
spread Interpretation of election re-
suits as a victory for the radicals an
opportunity to press the downward
swing and as values fell away there
was much talk Of increased taxation
unfavorable to Industrial corporations
and Of revision of regulatory legis-
lation that would hurt the carriers.
Emphasis on these possibilities, how
ever, merely served 30 make easier
the dislodgenient of stocks whose un-
loading aided and abetted the short
sellers.
The Tribune's average price of fifty
stocks, as consequence of the de-
cline. reached the lowest point of the
reaction, the index standing at s7.52
Off Va points Oh the day and almost 8
points from the high Of last week, re-
corded on Wednesday. The downward
swing, which in several instances
amounted to 6 or more points. an
piled to both railroad and industrial
stocks, the average for twenty rails
fallingg i.1o points and the average
for thirty indnstrials going OFF more
than 1.50 points. Bonds were
irregular with foreign government
issues wavering less than some cor
poration securities. Liberty bonds
were dull and steady.
The fact that foreign tradinp
centers were closed for Armistice Dav
restricted operations in the foreign
exchange market. Acting independ-
entity OF these centers, which usuallv
dominate the situation, quotations
were moderately strong on a slight
volume Of transactions. Sterling and
francs both made slight gains, while
lire added 6h points to the earlier
advance. The rise in Italian exchange
is being fastened by the COVERING ~
snort commitments. Marks were un-
changed.
Cotton was the only commodity
market in which trading was not
suspended for the day. Price changes
we're extremely irregular as appre-
hension over the Near East situation

ing interest following Fridays set

aowed by rslly that did not ouite

Weakness of Oil Stocks

Persistent weakness in number Of
the oil shares, which have been widely
touted by pool cliques for rise, do not
seen TO confirm the recent reports that
crude oil prices are likely to, be ad-
vanced. AS matter of fact trade ;ndi-
cations are that they are more likely 30
decline. At the present rate Of In
crease the total stock of crude oil in
the United States is likely to approx
mate 280,000,000 barrels. At the end
of September it was actually 273, ,264 600
barrels, compared with l83,Ss0,0e0 bar
rels at the end of 1921, and with less
than a27,0o0,000 barrels in June, 1920.
1t is pointed out, however, that the
greatest threat against the stability of
crude oil prices is found in he decline
in the quotations of refined products,
as refners base their bids for crude
oil partly on the prices they receive for
their output OF refined products. Fuel
oil, which ntil lately was holding Arm,
is now showing weakness and gasoline
at refiners' prices showed substan-
tial break in October.

The calling of q special meeting of s.
$. kresge stockholders to approve an
increase in the authorized common
stock from s20,00o,oo0 to $50 900 is
believed to forecast the declaration of
a substantial stock dividend, which
would be the third such distribution
since the present company's orgniza-
tlon in 1912. In 1916 an 80 per cent
stock dividend, coupled with snb-
scf1ptlon privilege to 20 per cent in
new stool, at par. Late last wear a Sd
per cent stock dividend was declared.
The present stock, assuming the pur-
chaser of 100 shares in 1912 retained
his investment and received the stock

the equivalent of more than s5l0 a

yesterday was one of the most disap-
pointing features of the general break

Selling ON Tax Rumors

The market suffered an old tin1e
tax scare yesterday, with the indus
trials bearing the brunt Of the selling
More careful consideration Of last
Tuesdays election returns have en-
gcndered the belief in important
financial quarters that efforts will be
made in 1929 by the more radical
numbers in Congress to levy heavier
taxes on corporations, and this opinion
is more or less confirmed by the resent
press dispatches from Washington.
The change created in the political
situation is that the next Congress will
have a majority sufficient 10 carry out
the threats of those members who have
talked loudly about re-enacting the
excess profits tax and restoring the
high surfaces. Since 4he Supreme
Court decision making stock dividends
tax free, the radicals have expressed
themselves in favor OF an excise tax on
the privilege of making such distribu-
tione, reinforced by tax on the re-
tention of large surpluses in business
enterprises. The threat of such legis-
lation is regarded as a disturbing
market development
