Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, April 1s.-The signifi-
cant part about the stock market dur
ing the last week was that in face of
widespread pessimism in speculative
circles it gained ground. Going
against the surface current in this
manner denotes one of two things.
either that the market had become
oversold or that it had completed the
adjustment called for by the falling off
in outside business.
At the close of the week professional
sentiment was still inclined toward the
former view. but the latter 'interpre-
tation was gaining more adherents. As
was pointed out in these dispatches a
week ago, the elements of serious
trade decline are not present. The po-
sition is distinctly better than it was
last year at this time. because there
has been no rush of mercantile buying
resulting in an overaccumulation Of
high-priced goods.
Feared Runaway Market.
In the spring Of 1923 consumers of
steel were so afraid of a runaway mar
ket that they loaded UP with their re-
quirements for six and nine months
ahead. AS result, the steel mills in
the summer and early autumn were
still working on old contracts almost
entirely and il was not until the end of
the year that new orders came in suffi-
GENTLY to overtake output.
In the present season, there has been
no forward buying to speak of and
no rise in prices demanding the sharp
downward revision which occurred last
year. The principal trouble has been
that in certain important lines produc-
tion was speeded up in the early part
of this year to accord with exaggerated
calculations of what the future demand
would be.
1t would appear from the fact that
steel operations have dropped from an
average of 80 to an average of S6 per
cent and that for two weeks new steel
prices have stopped going down that
the process of correction is pretty we'll
along.
sharp Automobile Curtailment.
In the automobile industry the sit
uation is more obscure Apparently
expansion was carried even further
in this case than in the case of steel,
The ensuing curtailment has been
sharper, according to all accounts,
than commonly realized. The Iron
Agn, in its midweek review, referred

It was nice of the friendly witch to take her charms and make MT. Tunky's little store invisible for then no onE~would come along and try to take the store away from MT. Tun- ky.
 Of course, you and I know that 1t was only the selfish people who would try to do anything like that.
 And, the nice part about the kind Witch's magic was that the nice lit tie boys and girls who were unselfbSh could still see MT. Tunky's store as plain as they could before. ."I 'spect, now that MT. Tunky is fixed up nice with the invisible store that Raggedy Andy and l shall search for more adventures in the deep, deep woods!" Raggedy Ann told the kind Witch.
 And l :spect that shall stay here with kind MT. Tunky and help him give away the pretty toys and pie lure books and candies and things to the children" the Witch said. For it makes MT. Tunky work very hard giving away so many pretty red bicycles and roller skates and everything"
 Tt is very kindly and thoughtful for you to wish to stay and help MT. Tunky and I am sure that he will be pleased to have you!" Raggedy Ann said.
 And when MT. Tunky gives away all the invisible things in his store, you can take your magic charms and make lot more invisible things for him to give away" Raggedy Andy said.
 "Oh that will be lots of fun" the Witch cgied T shall run right in and begin to help Mir. Tunky right away" So the Raggedys kissed the kind hearted Witch good bye and watched her run into Mir. Tunky's little store, then as they smiled at each other, they caught hold of hands and ran down the path far ther into the deep, deep woods until they came to a very fine soda water tree.
 And as this soda water tree had sixteen faucets, each with a differ ent flavor of syrup in if, the Rag gedys tried every flavor until they had as much as they wished, then they laid back upon the soft green moss and looked up through the leafy trees and watched the soft vel low fleecy clouds as they sailed like giant ships across the deep blue ocean sky.
 And as they were very still and quiet while they were there, the lit; tie Elves and. Gnomes and othei woodland creatures who knew. of the soda water tree came up and enjoyed the lovely soda water as much as inc Rasgedys had enjoyed it.

So you see, dear Ruth, Jack and ] are just about where we were when l came home to mothers.
 He is absurdly jealous of Karl Whitney. I wonder why it is that a man is always more or less jealous of the man his wife refuses. Cannot he understand that she has settled the question once for all wbich man she cares for enough to marry by choosing him?
 At that moment, when my mother came in, It just seemed to me as though I could not go on with 1t all Ruth, why do we women have to keep fighting, fighting to keep our husbands love? Why do we have 10 f1atter them by word and deed all the time? Why is it the maga- zines are always telling women what they should do to keep their hus- bands still loving them? Why don't they sometimes tell a man what he should do to keep his wife's love! Why don't they make him under stand that it is just as hard for 9 woman as a man to keep on loving without some encouragement?

 Did his tone mean. that I de- priVed his mother of household au- thority which should be hers? It certainly sounded that way, al- though I did Dicky the jusuce to acknowledge that never had he at tempted to make my position as household chatelaine subordinate to his mothers.
 Whenever my doughty mother in-law had seized the reins, some- thing which frequently happened, 1t had been because of my own in diligence of her, not Dicky's. Be- cause of this remembrance l clip ped back the caustic comment upon my tongue, and substituted words which l fondly believed to be in nocuous.
 "Yes, she would like that" I said smiling.
 But evidently Dicky either thought l meant to be offensive, or pretended to think so, for there was a flash of displeasure In his eyes and an edge in his voice as' he answered hotly:
 '"Why shouldn't she? When she lived with Harriet and Edwin, she was absolute dictator Harriet de- voted herself to Edwin and mother ran the house, and ran 1t to per- lection, can tell you. The maids were models, and everything went like clockwork. Sere she feels hampered, naturally, by your refu- sal to give her any authority.

 Perhaps you'd like to have me subjected to the same disciplining process" l said in a voice choked with anger. "I'll promise to think it over, and if l decide to submit myself to conditions but little bet ter than those of the slaves before the civil war, I'll notify you.

They stood in one long line, with the gun-bearers, skces (grooms) and personal servants in tho front rank.
 As Colonel Roosevelt stepped from the train. they raised their hands above their heads and broke into . deep gutteral cheer of welcome.
 "Jambo. Bwana Kinei va Amerik" (Good-day, Mir, King of America!) came the deep-bass chorus from these natives of Africa.
 They had been told that the ex- president was coming to lead them on a big hunting Expedition, and this was larger expedition than ever had been gathered together in Africa-so their new employer must be very great king indeed.
 So In the beginning they spoke of their bwana (master) as "Kingi va Amerik" Presidents, ex-presi- dents and kings of Europe were all one and the same to them.
 Sir Alfred Pease and c. D. Hill were also present at Kapiti Plains to greet the celebrated hunter. They had ridden over from their farms to meet him on arrival, for they were to act as hosts and initiate him into the delights of big game hunting in Africa.
 Sir Alfred Pease knew Africa like a book, and had had wide ex- perience of this particular part of East Africa. He had very pros- porous farm few miles back from Kapiti Plains railroad depot. Hill and his cousin ran a fine farm close to Pease's. They were South Afri- cans, and had never been to Eng land.

depot, we had climbed to an alti- tude of 3,250 feet above the sea.
 For some time we had been travelling rapidly through such vast quantities of almost every conceiv- able species of big game that the members of the Roosevelt party were bewildered. They had been told great deal about the thou sands upon thousands of wild game they would see; but the actuality was much greater than the hearsay.
 We saw, amongst others, giraffe: wildebeeste in large herds or singly; hartebeeste, Thomsonili and Grantii gazelle in countless thousands; zebra beyond all counting; waterbuck, duiker and reedbuck; ostrich, and even a lonely rhinoceros; and as to birds, there were many thousands and in numberless varieties.
 Monkeys sprang from branch to branch, chattering angrily, as we sped past trees flanking the rail road track. AS spectacle and an education in geological science it was unsurpassed-and not an experience to be easily forgotten. In no other part of the world can one shake hands, as 1t were, with nature and it's wild denizens.

Hao' not a number of very distin- guished British sportsmen presented him with beautiful 5O0-450 Hol- land rife as mark of their appre- citation of his services on behalf of the preservation of species by means of national parks and forest reserves. 1 and by other means?" He had shown me this gun with pride on the voyage between Alden and Mom- basa
 We were now penetrating the greatest wild life sanctuary in the world, and it's immensity inspired this opinion of Roosevelt:
 There can be no possible grounds for doubting the great wisdom of the policy of game reserves and of wild game preservation generally. It is sane policy for the East African government to have marked out this huge game reserve area, It cannot be denied~that it provides a wonderful asset for this country: and for the world at large"
 As he spoke, we could see thou- sands of game peacefully and fear lessly grazing within easy rifle-shot Of the Machakos Road depot. As our train had rushed across the Plains, the~game scarcely bothered ] to lift their heads as they nibbled the grass beside the track. counted no fewer than a hundred different species within a radius of Tess than eighty yards of us as we stood talking. They all appeared 10 recognize that they were in their legitimate sanctuary and had noth. ing 10 fear.

It shimmered whitely s fir the powerful rays of the noontimt sun, and appeared to be of unusual, large dimensions.
 On the platform we found all th, hative porters awaiting the arrisa Of their new leader.
