TENDER misrepresentation Alonza, re-

STOCKS IRREGULAR

Copper and Motor Issues
Take Leadership on

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 13.-Ad-
vances in certain groups of stocks were
accompanied by moderate recessions In
others, giving today's stock market an
Irregular appearance. In the main,
however, the liquidation which had been
pressing In other recent sessions was
absent.
The two classes Of stocks which made
the best showing In the early trading
were the coppers and the motors. The
advance in the former was led by Ken
necott and Anaconda, particularly the
former, and was based not only on the
success of the agreement to restrict
production, but on the prospect Of an
other rise in the price Of copper metal
on top of Wednesdays marking up Of
the quotation from 9la to 10 cents q
pound. The copper stocks have been
thoroughly debated and so were in a
position to respond to favorable news.
The improvement in the motors was
not so pronounced, but it was still sum-
cient to attract attention. General
Motors was the leader and it was
bought on better appreciation Of the
significance Of the statement by Pres
ident Sloan as to the wage and dividend
policy of the corporation. Reports from
the motor centers, to the effect that
dealer demand was increasing, were
also factor.
Standard industrials moved without
uniformity. United States Steel held
around the preceding close and so did
General Electric, American Can and
Westinghouse, which were sometimes
slightly above and sometimes below
Wednesdays finals. The bearishly dis
posed professionals pointed to the lack
Of public interest on the buying side.
after the preceding close with its DEM
onstration of strength, as an untavor-
able sign. It was nothing Of the kind.
After so great decline ana sucn uraS-
tic downward revision, not simply OF
stock prices but Of equities In margin
accounts, it was not expected that there
would be o rush to take on additional
commitments at the first signs OF q
rally. The bull party has been cowed
and the bears have been triumphant Tor
so long that any Improvement In prices
will have to be sustained before 1t Is
accepted as permanent.
The rails as a whole did not hold as
well as the industrials. Some OF the
low-priced issues, on the contrary, were
decidedly weak, among them Erie and
Missouri Pacific, both at new years
lows Even the seasoned dividend pay
ers were irregular and heavy. 1t will
take a series of increases in car load
tngs before confidence will be restored
in the railroad stocks.
Call money renewed at per cent, but
funds were obtainable in the outside
market at per cent, with demand neg
Iiglble.

morning, despite slight decrease in

But the cunning of modernity is luxury itself
as compared with the hunting trips Of 1880
and thereaboutS. The sportsmen will tell you
perhaps that hunting is hunting, like pigs are
pigs But it isn't Fast trains, bus transport
tation speedy motor cars and airplaneS add
new touches to the supreme sport Of bagging
the game which you covet. Better guns and
more efncient ammunition have also contributed
to make hunting easier than formerly. But
the game-yes, it is the same old resourceful
small game of the uplands and the migratory
waterfowl Of the tidewater: the game against
which hunters have been matching wits ever
since shooting sport hared into prominence;
the small game and waterfowl, which under
Federal and State protection continues to
multiply at least on q scale commensurate with
the annual kills" and usually in greater num-
bers.
Within short motor tours Of the u. s. Capital

The tingling alarm clock awakens you from
fond dreams of the days when bison were in
flower in this, our latitude Of national legis-
lation. You chide at chanticleer for being tardy

the dispatch of a modern minute man you
gulp down the warm breakfast which the good
wife has prepared-modern servants still are

brambles are as numerous as small rocks and
where you will test out your hiking prowess

from dawn until dark.
Business cares and worries come and CO. golf
ing victories are but temporary triumphs, but
the joys OF roaming and rowing the open and
wooded countryside in quest Of what you can
arouse and bag by your hunting proves and
skillful aim are never forgotten. When all other
varieties Of "nreside tanning have been ex-
hausted during the long interim which follows
the sunset Of the open season the amateur and
professional hunters still keep going strong in
good voice. The Nimrods usually have In
tiguing yarns to recite and as q rule they are
not backward about coming forward to narrate
them.

They afford good sport to the hunter who hunts
either with or without dogs. And rabbits are
universal in practically all the civilized coun-

been somewhere at a rapid gait by the time
