BUSINESS IS ON
ACTIVE LEVEL
By RICHARD HATToN

That business throughout the
United States continues at an
active level is the concensus of
opinion of financial observers gen
orally. While there has been an
evident slackening in some quarters
during recent weeks it is expected
That the volume of trade during
the next several months win be
ahead OF last years record.
As to the stock market the
sharp decline IN prices during the
past two weeks carried the averages
down to the level prevailing at the
beginning OF last October" says the
weekly bulletin of the Bureau Of
Business Conditions of the Alexan-
der Hamilton Institute, which con-
'tinues:
after such drastic decline In
30 short a. time, it is logical to ex-
pect two or three weeks of irregu-
1arity and mixed tendencies. The
collapse of some pools has thrown
upon the brokers and bankers the
problem of taking care of quantities
of undigested stocks; after being
steadied temporarily during the
process of liquidation, these undi
gested issues should work lower.
On the other hand, there has been
heavy short selling Of good stocks
which are supported by pools with
strong financial resources; In sucE
issues the pools win be prompt to
push prices upward forcing the
shorts to cover at higher level.
Once the shorts have covered, such
pools, or at least some of them
will let their favorite drop back to
~ lower level
While these mixed tendencies are
In evidence during the next two
weeks, investment buying should
proceed according to a conservative
policy. Business continues active
enough to Justify the expectation
that good stocks purchased near
the low prices of March should sell
higher in April Purchases should
be made, however, with the ex-
peetation that many stocks win sell
still lower next summer. 1t is not
q time for long pull buying. The
long pull man should wait several
months longer. That applies also
to business men who have little
time to follow the market. In
vestors who are in position to fol
low the market rather closely, how
ever, viii be justified In taking on
moderate commitments of good
stock around the low prices reached
during the past week.

ROME, March cit was learned
in Vatican circles today that Car
dinal Bonzano, formerly Apostolic
delegate to Washington, is not
likely to be named as the Pope's
legate to the Eucharistic Congress
In Chicago next June, because of
opposition OF Cardinal O'Connell,
archbishop OF Boston.
1t is understood here that Car

sition to Monsignor BonZano's ap-
pointment is attracting powerful

doughty hero, Rear Admiral Winfield
Schley. who was actually in command
of the fleet which destroyed the Span
ish squadron off Santiago de Cuba in
1898, and before this he was com.
mander of the relief expedition which
rescued Gen. Greeley and his party in
the Arctic regions. On the paternal
side this interesting young student OF
letters is the granddaughter of the
Earl of Wharnclffe. and she has fire.
quently been the guest of her grand
parents at Wortley Hall in Sheffield.
Miss Virginia Schley married the Hon.
Ralph Hontaga Stuart Wortley when
her father was stationed in Washing
ton in the late 1ss0s. He was a
younger son of the Earl Of Wharn.
cliffe. and had gone into mercantile
pursuits in New York City. At one
time Mr.. and Mrs. Wortley had a
beautiful country seat near Pelham
Manor, where Admiral and Mrs.
Schley We're frequently their guests
They moved to Long Island about 10
years ago.
Mr.. Paul Mayo has recently erected
at Bear Creek, about 80 miles from
Denver, a unique and substantial
house, built right into the solid rock
of the great mountain chain for a
foundation. with the same gray gran
ite forming the greater part of the ma
terial. Mr.. J. B. Benedict. the well
known architect who has used the
picturesque type of houses which dot
the high peaks in the Tyrol, built the
home, but he has given a decidedly
American touch to many of its details.
In general outline this house of rock
Is L-Shaped, squared by a wide Gothic
tower which looks on the massive
mountain in the familiar pose of many
seen during Tyrolese travel. The clois-
ter effect is also rather alien, but once
within the wide. carved doors the do
main of Uncle Sam is proclaimed. A
living room, nearly so feet long and
about 20 wide. has one deep recess oc-
cupied by a wide .chimneypiece, where
nearly all through the Summer the
spicy pine logs crack merrily and a
softened electric globe sheds a radi-
ance closely resembling daylight
through yellow stained glass. Mr.
Mayo spends half the year in this
lofty retreat. which looks down on
the west on the peaks near Denver,
with the winding roads plainly visible
for hundreds of miles. AS this Is a
mail air route. there are beacons burn
ing through the night. and other fas-
cinating glimps of the worlds affairs,
which apparently lie so remote. are af-
forded by the giant lighthouses erect
ed on Pixies Peak and Mt. Evans. So
calm and remote is Mr.. Mayo's place
that it strongly resembles houses Of
religious retreat which are so often
seen in the Tyrolese Alps.
