BROKERS LOOK
FOR RISING
MARKET
Lack Of Action on Tariff Bill
Seen Holding Down Stock
Market Prices
By JOHN Z. NEVIN. Jr.

Brokerage firms here are ex-
pectantlyi watching for a rally
in stock values which they be-
lieve win occur as soon as the
tariff act has definitely been
acted upon.
No matter what action is taken
on the delayed tariff, the brokers
feel that q certain amount Of
the suspense which has hung
over the stock market for many
months viii be dispelled.
Another matter which will be
necessary before there is a COM
plete recovery, they say. is estab-
lishment. Of some definite trend
in business and commerce. At
present both are in the doldrumS,
swinging this way and that way
but never making a defined
move.
A certain amount Of business
is beginning to show upward
progress but it Is in limited
amounts. However, leaders in
many fields declare there win
shortly be a decided change. To
what extent their opinions are
true can only be proven by time.
Miss Maria Lorbe eerb u m,
widely known international travel
authority, has been appointed
manager of the travel department
of the International Exchange
Bank This is recognized as one
Of the most important positions
in the newly created branch Of
financial enterprise.
Miss Lorbeerbaum is %, but
despite her youth has had wide
experience in the maritime world
and for some years occupied an
important position in this field.
She is widely travelled and has
numerous contacts abroad which
will help her greatly in her
work.
Six months ago the new man
ager came to Washington to
visit her sister, Mrs. II. B. Lans-
burgh, Of the 1900 block Cathe
dral Ave. N. w. In her new posi-
ton. she will be able to make
suggestions to travellers as to
how their vacations might best be
spent to the best advantage at
the minimum cost. ~
During the World War, Miss
Lorbeerbaum was in Vienna, and
it was partly due to her untiring
efforts that the war relief work
there was carried out with such
dispatch Personally, she worked
long hours and provided large
sums for the care Of unfortunateS
in the war zone.
Miss Lorbeerbaum is recognized
as the person behind the move
ment to send refugees back to
their native countries after the
war. At first steamship officials
did not want to send their ships
through the Adriatic and Medi-
terranean Seas, but she was able
to get them to do it.

While the present uncertainties
in stocks exist, another field
offers a change for speculative
gain along with a return on

point out opportunities in this

deserving of attention is Niagara

Curb Exchange around 1O4 and
that rate yield better than 5.25
per cent. These bonds are con-
vertible into common stock, on
the basis Of A shares for each

and thereafter until May /, 1885,
on the basis Of 40 shares per

Of the bond at present prices,
conversion would be profitable
should the stock, which is cur
rently quoted on the curb around

year between 21h and IL, sell

LIBBY SCHOOL NEWS TOLD IN
AN INTERESTING MANNER
Edited By
RACHEL SLEIZER

COMPARISON.

Mr.. Moe, High School inspector
when asked whether high school ath-
letics were taking too much time OF
the student expressed the opinion
that high school competition we'll or
ganized is great help to scholar.
Snip Outside competition tends\ to
build up the spirit of rivalry within
the school. The student becomes more
enthusiastic about attending school
and it also develops spirit of CO.
operation.
In comparing the chances of stu
dent of small high school with the
students of a large one the former
has the best of it. A large high school
has more fields of work for the stu
dent but the smaller ones are branch
ing out and it is only a small per
cent who cannot find something to
their liking. In the small high school
the student becomes better acquainted
with the teacher. He has more chances
of personal help.
In national ranking Montana is
above the average. The number Of
students that start in the first grade
and graduate is above the average
in this state.
Full student control in Montana
does not seem practical or possible.
The students of the Jr. High schools
scatter to different high schools and
therefore are not used to cooperating
with each other. Part student control
IS practiced in some schools but it is
under the control of the teachers.
Full student control has been tried
in one or two schools Of Montana
but has been found wanting.
The passing of classes can be as
orderly in large high school as they
can in smaller school. The order
depends on the organization of the
passing.
Everything about the school de-
ponds upon proper organization.
1t is the foundation of a high schools
success.

Not only all these things but the
biggest question Of all, What are

all through" We have gone through
these years with the hope that we
will be better prepared for the tasks
that we are going into. Very few rea-
lie that play days, are over and now

LONDON, May 30.-Hunter Charles
Rogers, laborer and so-called king of
hoaxers," was yesterday sentenced to
nine months in jail at the Berkshire
Assizes for uttering forged documents
purporting to bear the signature of VIII
liam Penn, founder of Pennsylvania.
The collection included q supposed
draft of the American Declaration of
independence, which Rogers had finally
auctioned off for 500.
The sentence was the sequel to Rogers
attempt last January to sell q collec-
ton of his own paintings and art
relics" in Toronto. He alleged the
paintings were the works of old mas
tiers and the papers of great historic
value and that the collection, which he
said was worth $500, 900, had been in
the possession of o woman descendant
of William Penn, who ordered them
sold in America out Of dislike for Euro

DATE OF TRAFFIC
/ HEARINGS NOT SET
thorough Study of Conditions
Promised by Commits
Sioner Crosby.

District Commissioner Herbert B.
Crosby has not indicated when he will
institute public hearings by a special
committee with a view to recommending
q general revision of the District traf-
&c laws in accordance with the sug~
gestion of Corporation Counsel w. w.
Bride.
While the Board of Commissioners
has approved the suggestion, 1t was in
dicated that further conferences would
be necessary before the preliminary
steps could be taken to set the machin-
cry in motion. Meanwhile, the board
has called upon the Public Utilities
Commission and the Bureau of Eff
cheney for their fullest cooperation in
working out a solution of the traffic
IllS.
Mr.. Bride, in his communication to
Gen. Crosby, pointed out that complete
revision of the code would be neceS-
sary to end the conflict that exists
over the question of authority. His
report followed recent survey made by
the Bureau of Efficiency which recon-
mended the Capitalization of all traffic
powers under one authority.
Despite the fact that plans for the
hearings have not been formulated, it
was indicated that the study of the
traffic situation would be a thorough
one and expedited as rapidly as pos
sible. The personnel of the committee
would include a representative of the
Public Utilities Commission, the Bureau
Of Efficiency and whomever Gen. Cros-
by would appoint from the Police De-
psrtment and the Traffic Bureau. Gen.
Crosby, it was said, welcomes an OPP
portunity to iron out those differences
In regard to traffic which would bring
about complete co-ordinated action.
