New York. Feb. 27.-Before BUSH

exchange today, the syndicate
which bought an issue OF $4,000

Netherlands, Holland, reported that

ATE to AIS per cent. The syndi-
cafe handling the bonds reported
satisfactory progress in their sale.
While Allied Exchanges advanced
to new high levels for the current
movement, the foreign government
and municipal external loans mere
ly remained firm around Saturdays
closing prices in the bond mar
ket, This was true particularly OF
the United Kingdom, Canadian and
French bonds. Belgium 71as, City
of Berne IS, Copenhagen 51fs, Chi
nese SIS, Toxic IS, Denmark IS,
Sweden 6s and Uruguay IS were
among the members of this group
which moved up enough to get to
fresh tops for 1892.
Liberty bonds were strong with
the largest demand for the third
AIS. There was a number of rec
ord high quotations in the corpor-
ate list but trading in industrial

ly to their best prices this year,
while the rest Of Greater New York

board Airline bonds, Frisco adjust

with fractional price changes. Mar

WALL STREET FEATURES
~ STUART p. tcopYntsKr fsssl
VERY BROAD NARKFT.
WEST COPYRIGHT. is32.I

Nearly all the brokerage advices
which went out from Wall Street
this morning were bullish on every
thing but the steeis. This group
was dicriminated on account OF the
disappointment felt at the passing
of the Republic Steel dividend and
the accompanying statement that
the company, despite the apparent
turn for the better in the steel
trade, was still not operating in
black figures. There was heavy
selling of Crucible, Republic and
Bethlehem B, with a rather sharp
break in Lackawanna- Steel COM
mon, selling ex-dividend of ia per
cent, held its ground better, yet 1t
did not resume its place OF lader-
ship that it held last week and the
week before. Studebaker justified
the explanation that once establish
ed above par, its advance would
be rapid. The short interest even
this morning in Chandler Motors
was very large and when the stock
passed the 20 mark, these bear trad
ers began to bid with considerable
urgency. 1t was this which caused
the quick uprush from 70 across II.
THE OIL STOCKS.
Oil shares were among the lead
ers again today. All of the repre-
sentative American oils were &C
lively dealt in, but in none of which
the advance at all remarkable. Pa
ciffc oil got ups close to its high
record and Texas company was at
length able to overcome the inter-
tia which had chara ctarizaA 81 az
long. Marland, Texas Pacific Coal
and Oil and Sinclair were all bid
up. White Oil was more active.
The stockholders meetings is sched-
uled for March 6 to ratffiy the &C
QUESTION of the control OF the Unit
ed Central Oil Corporation and an
addition to capital for development
purposes of $I,500.00O.

er talking with her over the long
distance telephone from Chicago,
had joined her only few days be-
fore.
According to Mrs. Frady's letters,
both she and her husband were in
the best of spirits. Mr.. Frady, she
wrote, had just made a trip to Cuba,
after which he had rejoined her in
Miami. The last letter from Mrs.
Frady was received by Mr.. Thomp-
son only two days ago, and was
even more cheerful than the one
which came earlier in the week.
No Hint Of Trouble.
I'VE can't in any way account for
what has happened" said Mrs.
Thompson at the Drake Hotel last
night. Both Mrs. F'rady and her
husband seemed especially happy
l only hope Mr.. Thompson, who is
seriously i'll, will be able to with
stand the shock"
In August, 1918, Mr.. Frady was
made defendant in suit for $4,000
damages instituted by Allen Au-
buchon, celebrated jockey,
charging him with "the wicked theft
OF his young. pretty wife through
alluring riches"
Danville, Ill, Feb. 27.-Mrs. E.
C. Frady was born and reared on
q farm In Vermillion county, the
youngest OF the nine children of the
late John r. Thompson, Sr., and
was married 20 years ago to a Bos-
ton man. Several years after her
marriage her husband died.
Mr.. Frady lost his wife and two
daughters in the Iroquois theatre
fire, and Miss Thompson also at
tended the theatre on the day OF
the fire. Mr.. Frady and Miss
Thompson met soon after the dis
aster.
Relatives said here today that
they knew of no reason for the
tragedy as both seemed to be very
happy.

DR1GOODS.
New York, Feb. 27.-Prices in the
drygoods market today continued
to show steadiness and the volume
of trading was slightly greater
than at the weekend. The de-
mand in gray goods seemed to ia
vor the narrower construc tions, al
though the high count goods show
ed a somewhat broader demand.
Print cloths continued to be quoted
at about the same figures which
have prevailed for some days. The
lightweight sheetings continued to
be favored by bag manufacturers
and there was some evidence of
buying for export in these goods.
The volume of sateens traded in
was slightly improved.
The raw silk market exhibited
little activity or strength, although
there were some small orders in
evidence at prevailing prices. The
buying of finished goods was slight
IL better, although buyers are
hunting long for bargains before
purchasing.
WOOL.
Baston, Feb. 27.-The edge seem
ed to be off the active trading in
the wool market today, although
the firmness Of prices was main
tanned. Buyers seemed inclined to
await developments in the west and
demand by manufacturers. Many
of the latter have not made plain
tust what their course will be in
view of the. fact that raw material
has advanced from So to so per
cent in the last three months and
there is some doubt as to what ex-
tent some of the manufacturers are
covered on their raw material re-
quirements.
The New York pool totalling
about 100000 pounds has now
been cleaned up and brought a TO-
tai OF $3.50, 900 to the $500 growers
involved. Some OF the Arizona
clip. shearing of which began to-
day. has been consigned against
cash advanced by dealers, as is the
custom among some Arizona grow
ers. ;,

HOUSTON ON.

Houston oil, according to those
IN close touch with the inside SIT
uation, il discounting the increased
value OF the company's holdings OF
land in Texas. Houston OIL now
holds about 1000 acres of land
and an increase in value Of $40 an
acre means IS per share for the
stock. 1t was said today that
whereas several years ago Texas
land was sold at 20 an acre it is
now held at $50 an acre. A block
Of $500 shares Of Houston Oil was
offered for sale at the close OF last
week and part Of this was absorb
ed on Saturday. The remaining
stock was withdrawn from the
market today, which was one rea-
son why Houston Oil had such a
squirt forward.
AT LAST, THE COPPEDS.
Until today copper shares had not
participated in the bull swing which
has been In progress for nearly a
month They had hung behind be-
cause development in the copper
trade were disappointing. Instead
or the Is cent copper talked of
around Christmas time, the metal
had been going down steadily since
the first Of the year-from IA to
12B cents. However, there was
prompt response today, when an
nouncement came that the Inspira-
ton Copper company had resumed
the production of concentras. AL
though it will be three months be-
fore the Inspiration reaches any
quantity output, the news that OPP
erations were to be recommended
had favorable effect. 1t was TAX
en- to reflect the judgment that cop
per trade conditions were better
than they seemed and that this
would soon be shown in the price
of the metal.

The most direct and immediate

probably be the re-introduction
of the ordinance in the New YORK

Hylan was in Chicago when he
heard that the ordinance was con.

he did not recall signing 1t. When

measure he replied:

When the alderman originally
introduced the ordinance he read
a long list of crimes ranging
from disorderly conduct to muir
der, and asserted that every one
could be traced to tho deadly
cigarette.

of the Anti-Cigarette League, said:
