AND BEAR
BATTLES BUNK,
SAYS HANEY
Speculative Fires Too Low
to Be Interesting Now,
He Declares
BY LEWIS HANEY
iyector Ne1O York University

Director Ne11 York University
Bureau OF Business Research
The attitude of Wall Street dur
ing the recent decline in stocks
differs materially from what it has
been in other periods Of decline
in the past two years.
There is obviously less wild bull
lish talk than formerly. At the
same time, I think, the bears are
less cockSure. There is less Of
the struggle between opposing
campS-less of either attack or
support.
Fires Burning Low
I think that we may conclude
that the speculative fires are burn
ing lower, and that the time Is
measurably nearer when invest
ment motives and forces will be-
come ascendant. This would give
us a sort Of market different from
any seen in a good many years.
Eventually the market should
settle down to a period Of dull ir-
regularity, in which conservative
appraisals of earnings and yields
would be the main factor.
The holders of the new era lead
erS will have given up all ideas of
recouping losses. The "big bears"
will have faded out Of the picture.
Insiders Accommodating
Insiders will be gradually accum-
ulating stocks at low prices. Daily
fluctuations will be narrower than
any we are now familiar with.
The period Of recovery which
lasted from october 5 to Novem-
Der 9 may we'll prove to have been
the last effort Of the new era die
hards to mark up the old favo-
rites.
In my opinion, it was more halt
ing and lacking in driving force
than any of the larger recoveries
in this bear market. This may
mean that we are now undergoing
the final liquidation Of old lead
erS.
Still Too Early
It is fairly plain, however, that
the time is not yet. Steel and
Can have just made new lows. The
rails have made new lows. The
bond market has made new lows.
am still of the opinion that
not till investors take hold of
bonds and the basic raw material
markets are at least definitely sta
bilized, can we expect most stocks
to be a buy.

RANCE NARROW
WITH SHORTS
COVERING
New York Central and New
Haven in Van As Steel
Heads InduStrialS
BY w. s. COUSINS

NEW YORK, Nov. 80 G.N.SO .
Under the lead of the rails,
which moved up a point or two
from Saturdays final prices, the
whole market staged a recovery
today. Wheat started the new
week about a cent a bushel
higher, while cotton advanced 10
points.
A slump of liz points in
sterling exchange, with the
British pound quoted at 3.42h,
the lowest since England
suspended the gold standard, was
the feature of the foreign ex-
change markets.
Dumping Blamed
Further Withdrawals from Lon
don and the recent heavy dump
ing Of outside goods to beat the
new tariff impoSitions were
largely responsible for the weak
ness in sterling.
New York Central sold up about
212 points at 3024, and New Haven
rallied $50 to 1854, leading the
early recovery of the rails.
United States Steel moved up
about a point to 5424, American
Tel. and Tel. 2 points to 1712, and
American Tobacco B ~ points to
80. American Can, General Elec-
trio and General Motors rose frac-
tionally.
For the most part the market
was a narrow affair, with short
covering by the professionals fur
nishing the bulk of the buying &C.
mand. Transactions at noon
totaled 800, 900 shares.
Rail Bonds Steady
The oils, coppers and motors
were In good form in this period,
coinciding with the fairly encour-
aging reports from these i'm
portant industries.
Railroad bonds held their own
and made no further price conces-
Sions. German government Is
Slumped to a new low at 1874.
Call money was unchanged at 21a
per cent.

Profits Doubtful
For German Steel

Early reports for the year end
ing June 80, 1881, for two Of the
largest German steel concerns IN
dictate that the industry as a
whole is unlikely to show any
profit margin whatsoever for the
year.
Klockner and Cute Hoffnung-
shuttle (Haniel-Group) both show
satisfactory depreciation charges,
after which the former indicates
a very minor profit and the latter
a moderate loss.

SEES RAYON STABILITY

Present domestic price levels
make for stability in the rayon in
dustry and the differentials be-
tween the various sizes and quail
ties are such that freedom from
further adjustments can be eX-
pected, it was stated by Samuel
A. Salvage, president of the Wis
cose Co., on his arrival from Eng
land.

Earnings Improve
For National DARN

Earnings of National Dairy
Products Corporation, in both
September and october were
somewhat better than in the cor
responding months of 1890 due
partly to the warm fall weather.
Annual dividend requirements
OF $3.50 a share were more than
earned in the first eight months
this year. and it now seems likely
that Nationals earnings for the
year will run between $3.4O and
$3.50 a share for it's 6,263, 141
shares of stock.

SCRAP TONE EASIER

Steel scrap continues quiet in
most markets, and prices are
inclined to be heavy at some
points. At Pittsburgh, heavy
melting remains at $10.25 a ton,
but some small business has
passed at $40 recently. Dealers
are not willing to shade $10.25
on stable business, however, for
supplies are scarce at this level.

Pinto and Great Northern Beans
Make Valuable Foods

Pinto and Great Northern Beans
Make Valuable Foods
Both the Pinto and the Great Nor
thern bean belong to the group of
common kidney beans (Phaesolus
vulgaris). They are good foods and
when. properly cooked are most pala-
table The Pinto bean is dark bean
and the Great Northern is light in
color, quite like the Navy bean in ap-
pearance and composition.
Their concentrated form makes
these beans cheap sources of energy.
The large amount of protein contained
and relatively large amount of cal
cium make valuable additions to the
diet at any time. The presence of
vitamin B in these beans makes them
especially desirable in winter because
during this time of the year the diet
is likely to be low in these much need
ed vitamin. Both of these beans
thrive under drought conditions so
that this year there is an abundant
supply of them on the market On ac-
count of their high food value and
their availability they are suggested
as valuable and cheap reinforcements
to the diet at this time.
Soup using Pinto or Great Northern
Beans
One cup dry beans, cups water, 2
ounces salt pork, az X 13s X 1B in
chess, 1 medium-sized onion, 1 tea
spoon salt, depending on saltiness of
two cups water. Add cups of water,
pork, pepper.
Soak the dry beans overnight in
cook the beans until tender, and put
them through sieve or colander. Cut
the salt pork into Is inch cubes and
brown in a skillet. Add these cubes to
the pulp mixture. Chop the onion
fine, brown in the salt pork fat, stir
into the soup mixture, and add the
salt and pepper. Serve very hot.
| Chopped peanuts may be added to
the soup for pleasing variation.
/ To make full-meal dish, pour this
soup over toast covered with tender
brown slices of onions, and sprinkle
grated cheese over the top.
Chill con Carne
Two cups cooked beans, u pound
salt pork, " pound ground lean beef,
n cup chopped onion, 2 cups tomatoes,
1 tablespoon chill powder.
Cut the salt pork into * inch cubes
and brown in a skillet. Add these
cubes to the beans. Brown the chop
ped onion in the salt pork fat. Add
the ground beef and cook slowly for
minutes. Combine with the beans
and other ingredients. Cook until
meat is tender and the favors we'll

FUNERAL RITES HELD FOR
THE LATEGILMORS. HAMILL
Continued from Page one)


"How rapidly they are going. They,
too, have fulfilled their mission and
passed on into the great unknown
from which no traveller returns. Our
beloved dead, they have slipped away
from US as quietly as the leaves of
the trees about US. We are pilgrims
passing through the wilderness. We
are nearer our home today than ever
before. With each flying year we
seem to be quickening our speed.
With some of US the day is declining,
the end is almost in sight.
DR.. Ely was standing in this pulpit,
his friend and loyal supporter, Gil
NOR Hamill, was sitting in pew be-
fore him. we are passing now, said
DR.. Ely in closing. Our places will
soon be vacant. Now is work time;
now is the time to shine. No matter
what our attainments, the important
thing will be, are we Gods children?
Have we sought to serve God and do
good to our fellowmen?
at was in the autumn of the year
and in the autumn Of life that this
beautiful sermon was preached. Since
that time, first, over DR.. Ely himself,
and now over his friend, winter has
gently drawn the white shroud of
death. What we call death, but what
Christ teaches US the commencement
of fuller more abundant life.
"The days of the ford funeral
eulogy have passed away. Good taste
as well as respect for truth protests
against the fulsome flattery that used
to be expected on such an occasion as
this. But this can be said and ought
to be said, not as bit of manufac-
tured fiattery, but as sober state
ment of fact,-Mr. Hamill was not
only one of the most generous contri-
butors to the support of his church,
as he was to every good cause, but he
was also one of the most cheerful
givers. Giving was for him a joyous
privilege. To give generously and
gladly is to be like God who is the
Giver of every good and perfect gift.
1t is God-like quality, therefore an
immortal quality. 1t is an express
sion of love, which is the essence of
the nature of God. God is love, love
is divine, eternal, imperishable."
