Opening Season Is
 Not Promising

The trap season opened in the Ketcnikan district with traps a bit behind their usual schedule as the weather has been 50 in clement as to prevent trap crews from getting the gear into the water before the Fourth. The seine crews of the south ern and West Coast areas have been ready since the Fourth and most of the boats out trying to get enough salmon to eat.
 Last week sixteen boats were tied together in Security Bay af- ter being all over the country looking for fish. Rake, Kar- heen, Klawock and Craig were represented. Out of the sixteen crews, cannery tenders got just nine hundred sockeyes, humps and dogs.
 A run was reported on the Pt. Ward shores and down Ketchi- kan way, so the boats scattered and headed south.
 The July run has not materi- alized but the packers and the Bureau of Fisheries still have a lot of hope. Report from the Juneau area was that nineteen traps in one section after being lifted and brailed did not bring over a thousand mixed fish.
 TrolIers Have Tough Shedding
 Over 17O0 boats are reported at Cape Omaney with not enough fish in that section to feed and gas up a fifth of that number. It is predicted by the men studying the situation that about one thousand of them will be hard put to buy oil With which to get home on. Louis Hanson, fish buyer is said to have in the neighborhOod of twenty thousand dollars on his books which the trollers hope some day to repay.
 One fisherman made the circle from Security Bay to Gedney Harbor, across to Omaney up Baranof coast to Tyee and back to Security Bay, His catch for this run was three salmon. HERRING SEWERS DO DIRTY
 WORK
 A little herring, and salmon appeared off the Bay of Pillars. Forthwith down sWooped forty seven imported herring seiners who chased away what herring they could not catch. The sal mon which naturally followed the feed, disappeared also. All over the slack run of salmon is reported with fishermen be- moaning the fact they cannot even earn enough to tide them over the winter.

STOCK MARKET
DUETS DOWN IN
EARLY TRADING
Sales for First Half Hour
Total 1,523,2OO Shares
Under Thursday.

By Emitted Press
NEW YORK. Nov. 6.-The stock
market settled down today to an
orderlinesS that has not been seen
in two weeks or more.
Prices moved in a narrow range,
with a majority of them slightly
higher than Thursdays close, and
trading was at an even rate, that is,
far under the tremendously hectic
half hour and hourly tradings of
the past two weeks.
Sales in the first half hour
totaled 877, 300, compared with
2,400500 shares Thursday, a falling
off of 1,523,20O shares for the period.
A large number of small trans
actions occurred, forcing the tick
erS behind about twenty minutes on
the Stock Exchange and fifteen
minutes on the curb.
Despite the profit-taking that
caused irregular price movements,
Wall Street was in a distinctly bet
ter frame of mind Traders re-
garded the slowing down of bust
ness as one of the healthieSt
changes the market could have at
this time.
A survey of the market status by
Merrill Lynch e. Co. was particul-
arly helpful in restoring confidence.
That firm obtained direct reports
from two of the largest New York
banks as to banking conditions in
volved in Thursdays market.
There was no banking support in
Thursdays market. The rebound in
prices was natural development
Prior TO the opening Thursday two
instances of distress we're taken in
strong hands and relieved 1t is be-
lieved that no other instances exist.
"A number of large blocks of stock
which were being pressed for sale
on Wednesday we're liquidated at
private sale.
ut is the opinion of these bank
ers that a turn has come for the
better. However, it is believed that
the so-called blue ribbon stocks will
gradually settle to an investment
basis. 1t is believed that the many
secondary, issues now selling to yield
abnormally high returns will be
more likely to have sustained adj
vances than others"

CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-DecidedIy
weak cables took the edge off of the
demand for wheat on the Board of
Trade here today and prices
dropped rapidly. The general de-
mand was slow and there was some
selling by Thursdays buyers. The
stock market was not as strong as
expected and the weakness at Liy-
erpool and Buencs Aires had its eff
feet. Exports we're low. A lew
minor rallies were made by short
covering, but support was weak.
Corn and oats eased with wheat.
At the close, wheat was down 215
to use, corn was down &c to 1c,
and oats was &c to sc lower. Pro-
visions were firm.
Whet prices continued to ease
during the morning after the low
opening, when the Canadian board
of grain commissioners estimated
that the farmers still had some
100000 bushels Of unsold wheat.
Liverpool and BuenoS Aires were
much lower. Liverpool closed 13s to
ia cents down

Corn eased with wheat in the
