NEW YORK, Sept. % H9-The stock
market displayed complete reversal
of form today, an early advance un-
der the leadership of the rails and
public utilities being followed by q
sharp selling movement, which was
directed chiefly against the pivotal in
dustrials. Final quotations disclosed a
curious mixture of gains and losses
ranging from / to nearly points.
There were no outward Develop
ments to explain the sudden change
in speculative sentiment. The early
buying movement was associated by
market observers with reports of inn
provemerlt in the steel industry; pros
poets of better railroad earnings, par
ticularly in the northwest; and a
lowering of the call money rate to S1a
per cent. In the absence of any wide
public following, the rally was not par
ticularly impressive and apparently
failed to dispel the feeling of uneaSl-
ness which has arisen over the expect
ed increase in the volume of brokers'
loans this week.
General Motors Gold stock broke
from high of 266% to 258A, closing
at 25912 for net loss of 514 points,
despite widespread predictions OF
record breaking third quarter earn
ings. The old stock will be stricken
from the list on october s. The new
stock closed at 1291a for a net loss OF
3 points. U. S. Steel common dropped
from 1907 to 1865, new low on
the current downsWing and closed at
1865, off 21s net.
Outside the stock market chief spec
ulative interest stain centered in cot
ton, which advanced $1.50 to nearly 81
a bale on reports of continued rain
and cold weather in the southwest.
Wheat prices advanced slightly but col
fee lost part of yesterdays gain.
Railroad shares again came to the
fore in the stock market, despite the
disappointing character of some OF the
August earnings statements now being
published. Chesapeake and Ohio
common was the leader, climbing near
ly six points to record price OF 2O4Hs
and closing within a fraction of the
top. Good buying also was noted in
the Erie issues, New Haven, Southern
Pacific, Western Maryland common,
Nashville, Chattanooga and st. Louis
and Norfolk and Western, all OF which
showed substantial gains on the day.
Public utilities also resumed their
advance with Abitibi Power, American
Water Works new, American and For
eign Power, Peoples Gas and a few
others mounting to new high ground.
Both mail order shares touched new
peak prices on expectations of higher
earnings through the increased pllr-
chasing power of the agricultural dis
trictS.
An impaired technical position was
disclosed in several of the specialties
which recently have enjoyed sharp adj
vances. Warren Bros. which had been
bid up to record high in anticipa-
ton of substantial profit from its
Cuban and other road building con-
tracts, broke nearly points to l27.
Losses of three points or more were
sustained by American Radiator, Com
mercial Solvents (neW), international
Harvester, international Silver, La
clede Gas and Montana Power.
Call money renewed at and drop
ped to 31a per cent, time money and
commercial paper rates were unchang-
ed.
Except for a. moderate recovery in
French francs and firming up, in
sterling rates there was little OF in
terest in the foreign exchange market.

BIG CARNIVAL OFFERS
PASTIME FOR ALL AGES
Sensational Modern Riding Devices
to Be Seen at the Midland
Empire Fair

The Workman Shows, to furnish
the amusement M at the 18th An
nual Midland Empire Fair, Billings,
September Is, IA, Is, 16, have n of
the most complete strings of riding
devices in America. They have the
reliable old timers, which boys and
girls have delighted in for many
years; the Ferris Wheel, formerly
known as Old Eli; the Merry-Go-
Round, 3 abreast, with a big WurlitE-
er organ. Also the Whip, with its
swishing, bucking carriages that he'll
ter-skelter over q most uncertain
course and gives many thrills. The
Charleston, q new swing ride, named
the Charleston because Of its light
ning-like speed and the dizzy heights
to which it swings its patrons. An
entirely new ride, imported from Eu-
rope this season at a cost of more
than twenty thousand dollars, called
the Hey-Dey, will be seen here with
the Workman Shows for the first
time. It is a miniature racetrack
where automobiles, handsome In ap-
pearance, seating five passengers and
with only one front wheel, steered by
the drivers who have no control at
times, and look like q bunch Of wo-
men drivers at a busy corner on Sat-
urday afternoon, the cars barely miss
ing each other in their mad race
which is run in no particular direction
at a speed of more than sixty miles
an hour with some most peculiar de-
tours, and many ups and downs. The
ride is a combination of many ideas
formerly embodied in old park rides
and is much in accordance with the
modern age of reckless abandon ant

than forty tons, is made of steel, fool
