NEW YORK, Aug. 1.-THE public
appetite for stocks was whetted by
last weeks spectacular demonstra
tons on the side of rising prices
and additional buying orders poured
into Wall street from all sections
of the country over the week end.
Further substantial advances oc-
CURED in various sections of the
market under the leadership of the
high priced industrials. Mack Trucks
scared about four points to a fresh
record high at 221 and Westinghouse
Airbrake climbed ga points to
1872 ga.
The rails were almost uniformly
buoyant with New York Central in
the lead. That stock attained new
high on the current move at 120
while Wabash common reached the
best levels of it's history at 43 IA.
Further gains were also scored by
Reading, c. & o. and other recent
favorites.
. Price movements were irregular
toward noon, but enough strong
spots were in evidence to maintain
the upward momentum of the
general list.
Allis Chalmers spurted two points
to S41z on the Dow Jones announce
ment of an important increase in
the company's incoming orders.
American Smelling continued to
respond to the improved tone of
copper metal by, moving into new
high ground at 10S%. International
Harvester's rise of AS to its best
price since 1920, afforded a COM
mentary on the steadily increasing
demand for farm implements.

BiIlyEvans
Says
Baseball Tlnx

"T is remarkable how certain
teams are jinx to star
- pitchers. Also, how COM
paratively unknown youngsters are
often a hoodoo for championship
team.
"Dazzy" Vance, the strikeout king
of the majors, is finding the Pitts
burgh club a tough team to beat this
year. Three times Vance has sue
cumbed to the bats of the Pirates.
On the other hand, Lefty" Giard,
rookie southpaw of the st. Louis
Browns, has been a thorn in the
side of the world champs, Washing
TOM
Unless 1 am mistaken in my
figures Pete Donohue of the Cincin-
natl Reds has beaten the Philadel-
phia Nationals in something like
"a starts.
For about four years the Phillies
have been soft picking for Donohue.
In years past trimming the Phillies
was no great feat, but the team OF
this year is hard-hitting aggrega-
ton. Donohue, however, continues
to NOW 'em down with ease.
No doubt psychology plays a part
in these unusual happenings. Once
a team believes a pitcher has it on
them, the task of beating that team
is lightened so per cent.
Pennant Race
N baseball the ability to come
from behind to win is con-
~ sidered a mark of a team s
greatness.
If that is true, the Philadelphia
Athletics must be, rated in that class.
No team in the American League
has come from behind to win more
often than the Mackmen.
In a number Of cases 1t has been
one big inning late in the game that
has turned apparent defeat into
victory. From the top to the bottom
of the Athletics batting order it is
a dangerous combination.
In its climb to the top, of the
American League standing, offensive
strength has been the Athletics
greatest weapon.
While the Washington club is not
lacking extensively, the teams de-
fensive ability has been perhaps a
more important factor in it's fine
showing.
The Athletics and Nationals are
two great ball clubs. worthy pen
nant contenders. PROFESSIONALLY
they are evenly matched.
1t would occasion no great sur
prise If the outcome of the American
League race depended on the remain
ing eight games to be played be-
tween the two clubs.
1t looks like a battle to the last
week of the schedule, perhaps it may
go until the last day when Washing
ton and Philadelphia clash in the
national capital.

stalking out claims in a general way
adjourned until next Tuesday after
noon at the Hotel Traymore.
w. w. Inglis, president Of the Glen
Alden Coal Co, of Scranton, who is
spokesman of the mine owners. re-
vealed that both sides at the first
meeting had avoided the controver-
sial questions of arbitration and
whether work should continue after
September i contracts or no con-
tract.
Samuel D. Warriner, chairman of
the anthracite operators conference.
said today that:
I'VE are reported to be Indifferent
to, if not actually in favor of, sus-
pension in order that we may dispose
of large stocks of coal. On the con-
trary our representatives have been
instructed to urge upon the miners
committee the proposal that what
ever may be the course of negotia-
tions for the new contract. both
sides shall bind themselves that
there shall be no suspension of pro-
duction."
John L. Lewis. president Of the
United Mine Workers. denied today
that anthracite miners earn the high
incomes alleged by Chairman Warri-
ner in mis- reply to the demands yes
terday. He quoted figures Of the
former United States coal commiss-
ion purporting to show that ito earn

New York, July 10.-(AP)-Sale by
John D. Rockefeller, So, of his estate
at Pocantico Hills and at Lakewood,
N. j.. of his town house and garage in
New York City and Of his winter home
at Ormond, Fla, to his son, John D.
Rockefeller, Jr., for price "in excess
of s3,00o,0oO." was announced today.
The sale leaves one of the worlds
wealthiest men without a home of his
own. The price paid for each parcel
of property sold was announced as
being in excess of the taxable value of
the property.
A representative of the Rockefellers
denied that the sale was made to es-
cape payment of inheritance taxes on
the property. He said that the valu-
alton had been reached by real estate
experts. The sale did not decrease
the wealth of Mr.. Rockefeller. Sr.. but
constituted an exchange of cash and
securities for his real estate holdings.
A friend of the Rockefelllers ex-
planned that the elder Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter, being burdened by years, did not
wish to continue the material task
of looking after mis- several homes.
He will. however, continue to use
them. & -

A State constabulary fully trained
in police procedure within the space
of few years is the determination
of Chief Arthur H. Field, who assum-
ed the duties as head of the Maine
highway police at midnight last night,
and who yesterday afternoon met the
patrolmen in an informal way, pre-
ceding the testimonial banquet ten
dered the retiring chief. Fred r. San
born. which was held at the Augusta
House last evening.
Chief Field was favorably impress
ed with the appearance Of the high
way officers, but pointed out that the
new duties devolving upon them call
for special training and instruction in
police methods and the task was no
overnight job. He expressed himself
as fully sensing the great RESPONSE
bility that was his and regards it as
great opportunity to build up a
force that Maine people will be proud
OF and have full confidence in.
That there possibly may be changes
made in the personnel was indicated
by Chief Fields last night when he
concentrations for appointments to the
force to the governor and council at
the regular meeting next Tuesday.
and that these would be in line for
action by that body on the 23rd. Pend
ing this, it is understood that the
highway patrolmen have been in
structed to use extreme caution in
making arrests other than those al
fecting violations of traffic laws.
The banquet to the resiring CHIEF,
Fred Z. Sanborn, was held at the Au-
eusta House with over 10 of the
force in attendance. That the
work of the highway police
has been appreciated was evi-
dent in a number of letters from
different parts of the State, which
were read by Chief Sanborn. THESE
letters related especially to the
