 Interest in Stock Market
 One of the most discussed Of subjects in Berlin for the past feN days has been the stock market. Wherever one may turn, in lunch room or garage, depot or store, the question uppermost in great many minds is whether or not the market has finally struck bottom and whether or not this would be the safe tune to invest money. Between mouthfuls of coffee in a restaurant or during the rest periods of a mechanic beneath an automobile each and every spectator or parti- cipant indulses in some ballyhoo or condemnation of the flurrics in the market during the last week. A great many exhibit regret. others q more Care-froc I-told-y -you-so air. and still others claim that now IS the time to buy. Some react in an ill-tempered manner when questions are asked, no doubt when a spot made sore by the almost perpendi- cular drop in market quotations is touched upon.
 Week-End Traffic
 Traffic yesterday was extremely light. The football traffic was very | heavy Saturday, the hi~h"st point $ being reached somewhat before noon and in the evening at about o'clock Yesterday the rain and the generally unsettled condition of the weather decreased the traffic to such an extent that the local police did not consider it worth their while to do traffic duty. No arrests were reported.
