stock market sold off sharply in the
forenoon dealings, steadied in the
early afternoon and then rallied, clos

Bidding up of various specialtles,
together with a display OF strength IN
the motors, turned the market about.
Bearishly inclined operators were de-
tered from extending their commit
ments by the demonstration of control
which sponsors for various issues
showed.
In the morning it was Radio which
was advanced to new top at 420. up
over IL points. In the afternoon It
was Packard which pushed ahead for
some IL points, also to new high

new peak and Gold Dust was taken in
hand. The volume was lower than IN
recent sessions. Money held at 8 per
cent all day.

higher and it was not until the. re-
newal rate was posted that the char
acter of the market was developed.

tionally yesterday, started in at 4l3

THREE EXPRESS FIRMS
MAY BE CONSOLIDATED
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, December 5.-Interests
affiliated with both the railroad and
banking fields have acquired control Of
three express companies and may link
them into a S200,000,000 structure, it
was learned yesterday. The companies
are the Adams Express Co., American
Express Co. and American Railway Ex-
press Co. Within a year their stocks
have tripled in value and now have
an open market value Of about $780,
900, 900.
What these interests will do with the
companies has been indicated by recent
developments in the negotiations of the
railroads to acquire the property of the
American Railway Express Co. That
they may organize a gigantic motor
| freight service was made clear yester-
day in statement by W.. B. Storey,
president of the Atchison, Topeka &
Santa Fe Railway and chairman of the
uniform express contract committee of
| the Association of American Railway
Executives.
The interests now represented on all
three express company boards also may
begin a container-car service such as
was developed by the New York Central
Railroad and which has since, been
adopted by the Pennsylvania and the
Missouri Pacific.

 "rhe same condition is found in the Panama River region in Fur District No. and similar recommendation is being made.
 Mink and Black Bear
 RecOmlnenuatlOnS or reSluenlS and available records of belts taken indicate that the supply of mink in Fur District No. 3 has become so depleted as to justify a recommendation for the closing of the mink season in this dis trict.
 Petitions and recommendation from residents of that part of Fur District No. 2, north of the Alas ka Range and Ahklun Mountains ask that the protection now given black bear through the closed sea son from June 20 to September 1 be removed. These reeommenda- tions and petitions are based on the damage being done to the supply of game animals by the black bear killing young moose and caribou calves. The Commis- sion recommends that there be no closed season on black bear in that part of Fur District No. ?

DONOHOE SURE coy. SMITH TO
 BE NOMINATED
Democratic National Com mitteeman for Alas k a
 Believes Outlook Good


 Gov. Alfred E. Smith is virtual ly certain 10 be the Democratic Presidential nominee and his se- lection by the National eonven- ton will probably be not later than the fourth or firth ballot. This is the forecast of T. ]. Dono hoe. of Cordova. Democratic Ma iional Committeeman for Alaska, who visited local friends last night while the Yukon was in port
 "Goy. Smith is very strong in many parts of the country. He will have almost every eastern delegation, several midwest con fingents and almost all of those from the Pacific coast Mr. Don oboe said. He will go into the convention with 8 majority of all the votes and by the fourth or fifth ballot additions from SO called fayorite.son States will give him the required two-thirds vote necessary for nomination.
 Mr Donohoe expects that the National convention will be one Of the most harmonious in recent party history He is confident that Gov. Smith has a fine chance of carrying the nation in the No vember election regardless of  whom the Republicans nominate. Secretary Hoover, he said, is un- doubtedly the most popular candi- date the Republicans could put up. but he is inclined to believe eastern political leaders who will go to the Kansas City convention with large number of unpledged delegates may combine to defeat Hoover there.
 The Democrats in Alaska have a fine chance 10 elect many of their candidates in the fall cleo tion. MT. Donohoe said The rank and file of the party are taking an active interest in the campaign in a larger measure than since 1918. Strong divisional tickets have been put in the field every where. The Territorial ticket he added. is one that will draw not only the full party vote but also many independent votes. While he agreed it was too early to make any predictions on any race in the Territory. he was confident the Democrats had fine chance for success.
 Mr. Donohoe will remain in Se- attle for a few days and then go de California for vacation. He does not expect to return to the Territory until after the Demo cratic National convention next June.

In the other Di- visions it is not expected that it will be carried.

 Fur Propagation Permits
 That the fur farms of the Ter. ritory may benefit from the sale ef doE1esticated fur-bearers foI breeding stock. the Commission will hereafter not issue any per mits for the capture of fur-bear. CTS for propagation purposes where these animals are 10 be removed from the Territory. Few permits of this nature have been issued but the increasing demand for breeding stock of Alaskan strains has caused the Commits sion to adopt this policy.
 Some confusion appears 10 ex- ist in the interpretation of the present regulations where per son desires to retain alive for propagation purposes. such ami mals as are caught during the regular open trapping seasons. Animals may be captured and re tained alive during the regular open season but it is necessary to obtain a permit 10 retain them after the close of the open season. Such permits may be secured up- on application to the Executive office of the Commission
 Big Came Limits
 'IIt mas long been known that Alaska permitted as large or larger bag limits of big game to nonresident hunters than may be taken in many of the big game fields of the world. Many big game hunters and other non-resi- dents visiting the Territory dur ing the past few years have re- commended that Alaska reduce the bag limit of big game allow ed nonresident hunters.
 Hunters visiting the Alaska Peninsula and other western re- gions during the past wear have been disappointed in their efforts to secure a desirable trophy of that much desired animal which is found only in Alaska, the large brown bear. Guides and other residents of that region, who ben eft from the thousands of dol lars spent annually by nonre5i- dent hunters searching for this much desired trophy. have recom- mended a reduction in the bag limit of three now permitted. That this westward region might main tain it's supply of large brown and grizzly bears the Commission recommends that the bag limit he reduced to two on the Kenai and Alaska Peninsulas and the Kodiak-Afognak Island Group.
 Other Limits Reduced
 That the small number of moose now found in the region just south of Iliamna Lake might be permitted to increase the Com is recommending that the season be closed for an indefinite

period on the Alaska Peninsula south of Iliamna Lake.
 Many recommendations from residents and from nonresident hunters ask that the present bag limit of three caribou now Ser mitted 10 nonresident hunter north of the Alaska Range and Ahklnn Mountains be reduced 10 two, thereby making the non-resi- dent bag limit of this animal uni form throughout the Territory. The Commission has recommend ed this reduction.
 Present regulations permit q nonresident hunter to take three mountain sheep north of the Are tic Circle. However, due to the scarcity of this animal i'll cer- tain portions of the regions north of the Circle, tie Commission is recommending tEat this limit be reduced to two thereby making the nonresident bag limit uni- form throughout the territory.
 Guide Examination
 Applicants TOT gunIe licenses for the license year beginning July !. 1928, will be required to under go an examination to determine their notifications to act as guide. Applications for guide li- censes for the license year be- ginning July 1, 1929. are required to be approved by the Commits sion at it's annual meeting, No vember 1. 1928. Persons desiring to secure guide licenses for that year should submit their applica- lions and be examined prior to that date. Examinations will be

given by Game Commissioners or by persons designated by the Commission. These requirements have been made by the Commis- sion to the end that the person nel of the guide service in Alaska may be put on par with the guides found in other big game fields of the North American con tinent."
