BALTIMORE, October Bank
clearings, generally accepted as the
most reliable barometer of trade this
year. promise to surpass all previous
records, so far as Baltimore Is con-
cerned. For the nine months ended
yesterday local clearings totaled
s4.252. 1868. against S3,337.978.6Sl
for the corresponding period in 1924,
an increase Of $914,1SS,O02.
If the ratio of gain reported for the
first nine months is maintained to
the end Of the year, clearings for 1925
will approximate $500 ,OO0. 900. or
$574 ,655,259 more than the total for
1924, which was the banner year up
to that time.
Bank clearings do not mount when
trade is quiet, and the indications that
they will exceed the 1924 record by
well over half a billion should lissi-
pate any feeling that business Is not
going ahead at a satisfactory rate.

FURTHER ADVANCE
IN STOCK MARKET
Relief From Recent Money
Stringency Helps Give
Needed Impetus.
BY STUART p. WEST.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, October LIN the
financial situation today the most i'm
portant event was the reduction from
Az to 4 per cent in the Bank of Eng
lands discount rate. This came as
Il good deal of surprise after all
that has been said on the subject of
the English bank wishing to protect
it's gold reserve. Between the end of
April, when the gold basis was re-
sumed, and the first week of August
the reserve rose S45 100000. Since
then it has come down nearly $2O,-
900 900.
Some Stocks Stronger.
The gold resumption has involved
metal shipments from England TO
other countries where there has been
a debit balance. But the conspicuous
exception is the United States, which
is owed the money, yet which Is not
anxious to have gold transfer, be-
cause it still has its abnormal war
legacy of the worlds supply.
The stock market in parts OF the
list was stronger. Some short cover
ing came into the steels and the rail-
way equipments which had been un-
der pressure the previous day. Ger
tain of the automobile shares were
taken up again, and there was con-
spicuous activity in rubber and tire
issues based on the strength of the
crude rubber market and the knoWl-
edge that this will mean increased
profits for those companies which
have a large supply of the raw mate
rial on hand.
Rubber Shares Real Feature.
The rubber shares were the real fea-
lure in the market of the day. Active
buying of Dodge Bros. A at new high
prices was accompanied by reports
that earnings were running at the
rate of 50 a share.
New high records were made in May
Department Stores, in National Dis
tillers common and preferred, in
FleiSchmann, New York Gamers, New
York Shipbuilding. Julius Kayser and
Railway Steel Springs, which was up
over s points.
Also, Nivaudou on large turnover
went into new high ground. There
was a jump of 3 points in Inter
national Business Machine. General
Motors I per cent preferred sold at
new high, and so did American Agri-
cultural Chemical preferred. which
was up points.
Tennessee Copper and Chemical was
active at a rise of nearly points.
The market was paying more atten-
ton to the chemicals. too. and Mathte-
son Alkali was included in the buying,
rising over points.

CONFLICTING MOVES
IN BOND MARKET
U. S. Loans Firmer-RaiI
Liens Erratic-French
Obligations Steady.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.


NEW YORK, October 1.-The re-
duction In the Bank Of England dis
count from Az to per cent had no
effect upon the bond market today.
1t was accepted as n sign Of a desire
to preserve international conditions
the way they are and not as an indi-
cation of a further lowering of rates.
Dealers in close touch with the
market both on and off the Stock EX-
change reported that offerings around
the current price levels were larger.
This meant, to use the common phrase.
that the market was heavy" The
per cent money rate supposedly was
a factor, but actually 1t did not count
1t was due to the October corporation
settlements, which were admittedly no
more than a temporary influence.
French Bonds Steady.
Following the rise in Belgian ex-
change there was more Of a demand
for Belgian government bonds. French
issues were steady, with the Is sell
ing most of the time around 93k, and
the SIS around 1855. The French
city bonds were higher, the Bordeaux
6s selling at S8l2, against SS the previ-
Gus day.
Austrian government Is crossed par
and were one Of the interesting Incl
dents of the day. Profit taking con-
tinued in German Central Agricultural
Bank bonds, carrying the price be-
low "a.
Dodge Sales Active.
In the domestic section of the
market the chief features were Dodge
Brothers 6s and International Tele-
phone and Telegraph 51as Both of
these were actively bought. The move
ment in the Dodge Brothers bonds was
part of a general rise in the Dodge
Brothers securities.
Railroad Issues Were Steady.
The largest new issue was a $4,000
900 closed Offering of the German At
lantic Cable Co. The bonds run for
20 years and carry Z per cent in
terest rate. American Public Service
Co. offered $2,OO0,0Oo 5h per cent
bonds.

Interest i'm Money Rates.

Increased confusion regarding a
change in the Federal Reserve Bank
of New York discount rate has been
created by the unexpected reduction
in the Bank of England's rate TO
per cent. Many financiers hold the
recent stiffening of money rates will
be recognized by the reserve bank
through its rediscount policy, but ii
is recalled the last lowering of the
British rate in August started flow
of money to the United States and
quickly checked talk of an increase in
the New York rate at that time.

AT DUDLEY'S TODAY

A baptism of tears one of the
scenes in "Sackcloth and Scarlet" is
considered by Henry King, who d.
.rected this picture for Paramount re-
lease the most difficult and at the
same time the most beautiful scene
he has made in his motion picture
career of more than a dozen years.
In this scene Alice Terry was
shown watching over the crib of her
sisters apparently dying baby while
the sister, unconcerned, lay in an
armchair, idly smoking. The sister
had declined to permit a priest to
be called in to baptize the infant.
Miss Terry, with all the love for
the baby that hersister should have
hadfi was shown with her eyes slow
ly filling with tears and the tears
falling on the little ones forehead,
four of them forming the points of a
cross.
The tears were real and finally the
scene was made. Director King ut
tered a sigh of relief. Another mile
stone in the pictures progress had
been passed.
Orville Caldwell and Dorothy
Sebastian are featured with Miss
Terry in "Sackcloth and Scarlet"
Otto Matiesen, Kathleen Kirkham
John MILAN, Clarissa Selwynne and
four-year-Old Jack Huff play other
important roles.
The picture is an adaptation of
the novel of the same name by
Gibbs. The story also ran a serial
in the Red Book Mazagine.

NEWMAN HYMN
SUNG BY ALL
Lead Kindly Light Is Only One
of Over Four Hundred in
Heart Songs

We are not always able tc definite
ly know the mood or circumstance
which prompted musical composi-
ton, therefore it is with great inter
est that the established facts are
known of the writing of the enduring
hymn Lead Kindly Light" John
Henry Newman, later to become the
great Cardinal Newman, while still
a protestant, was in becaln.ed boat
lying IN the Mediterran an where he
aid gone to recuperate his failing
health and to overcome his great de-
preston of mind. He was in a pc
culiar state of inertia and distress
and there was a possibility of severe
storm when he conceived the immor-
tai words of this song, and the first
person to sing it was one of the ord
mary boatmen of the becalmed YES
sci.
1t not only conveyed a feeling of
peace and faith in the future in both
the writer, but in the fellow voyag-
erS, who were all fearful of coming
danger to their craft. It has since
soothed and comforted untold thous.
ands who have been in sorrow OF
unrest.
This mighty hymn of great belief
can be sung by the followers of any
faith. It's message is nonsectarian
and for the whole world. It is to
be found with its music among the
songs gathered from the best that
the history of music has brought
down to US in the volume known as
Heart Songs" and now being dis
tributed to readers of this paper.
How this collection of over four
hundred songs of all classifications
may be obtained is shown is another
page of this issue. The index makes
it plain that each song is as worthy
of representation as is Lead Kindly
Light" and includes the best of
opera, college, patriotic, playtime,
love songs and ballads.
