FLEA FARM

II was in A. D. B. c. The
group OF scandinavian hea-
trainers who had fought their
way through icy Switzerland
had come unto Rome. They
were to receive the acclaim OF
the multitudes, to perform their
art for the then civilized world
Now they stood before Nero
(acting Emperor in the abb
sence Of Benito). That mighty
man and his assembly were en-
thralled. For two days they
had stood thus, thrilling the
audience with their impassivity.
But the third act was drawing
70 its stirring close. The head
scandinavian flea-trainer, garb-
cd like the maiden Eve. stepped
to the microphone and began 70
coniugate the verb apple.
"Pommus, pommatus-"
The mighty Nero rose TO his
feet. "~Pommegranate," he said,
leaving the accent on the ante
penult. and strobe majestically
away fddling.
Tfereupon the pathological
fea-trainer was Immediately
stoned 10 death with olive pits
to the dismay Of his insur-
ance company. And to this day
no one has ever appreciated
fea-trainers or old time fddlers.

NEW YORK, September 16.-The
following is a summary of important
corporation news prepared by the
Standard Statistics Co., Inc, New York
for the Associated Press:
News Trend.
Although freight car loadings for the
week ended September were below the
previous week, the decline was slightly
less than seasonal downswing. Actual
loadings, says the American Railway
Association, we're 759,546 cars, which
compares with 1884, cars In the pre-
ceding week and 856, 649 cars in the
corresponding week of 1880. Merchan-
disc in less than CARROTS, ore and coke,
were the only commodities to show an
improvement over the previous week.
Daily average crude oil production
for the week ended September IL was
l72,700 barrels greater than the pre-
vious week, which was almost entirely
caused by the reopening Of the East
Texas area. The actual total, the
American Petroleum Institute reports.
was 10000 barrels. as compared with
i,746. 800 barrels in the preceding week
Gasoline stocks at refineries increased
$4,000 barrels to 3l,siS000 barrels.
Domestic copper was sold at ~
cents a pound, the lowest price on rec
ord. This reduction was attributed to
the recent copper statistics, which
showed g. 15,0o0-ton increase in refined
copper stocks.

NEW YORK, September 16.-Apart
from the foreign list, the bond market
today had much improved tone. Rail-
road bonds: after dropping to new lows
Shortly after the opening, rallied
sharply on reports that a constructive
announcement in regard to one group
OF rail securities was imminent. This
the Street inferred would be some new
financial set-up. Activity tapered of
on the advance. Money rates we're I'M
changed
At the opening the list was SYM
pathetically affected by the heaviness
IN continental markets and by initial
declines in stocks. German dollar
issues opened close to their lows and
showed much reluctance to leave that
price area. Reports that exchange di-
rectors in Berlin were hesitant about
quoting Young Plan bonds were re-
nected In further declines in German
Bank 6S and rs, United Steel Works
612s, Siemens & Halske 612s, most Ger
man municipals and utilities. Many
OF these touched new low prices.
Favorable news came from Germany
IN The announcement of the receipt of
interest and sinking fund installments
on Berlin Electric Elevated and Under
ground Railways 30-year 6l2s, City of
Berlin 25-year 6las and City of Frank
tort Z per cent serial gold bonds. These
securities had firmer tone as a result
AT the same time. however, Prussian
bonds-on which october IS redemption
calls have already been announced
fell to new low.
The British navy disorders looked
on1inouS to Wall Street and there was
a heavy tone in issues with British
amliations which extended even to frac-
tional declines in Canadian government
direct and guaranteed obligations. But
Great Britain SIPS and sterling quota
tons, in which the market sponsorship
is strong, held firm
Completion of Argentina's plan to
meet Its October l maturities was hall
ed with substantial improvements in
Argentine IS. Brazilians Continued
heavy, but Uruguayan issues were
higher
In the domestic department there was
a brisk rally before midday In many
issues which earlier had slurnped to new
lows. Among them: Allegheny SIS,
Chesapeake d Ohio A and B AIS, st.
Paul adjustments, Illinois Central 43ks.
Missouri Pacific 5ias, New York Central
refunding SIS and Pere Marquette AIS.
Substantial gains were made by South
ern Railway general IS, Erie SIS, Mis-
AIS, Rock Island A 4las and ST. Louis
San Francisco 4l2s.
The gains were shaded when activity
dried up on the advance. but still the
market had much improved tone
Some of the industrials were better also
notably the New York City fractions
Utilities were firm.
New York States issue of $40, 000, 600
bonds, which on Tuesday was sold at a
record high price, was reoffered to the
public today at prices to yield 1875 to
$50 per cent. The city of Winston
Salem, N. c., offered sl,434,000 of 4334s
at prices to yield 4 to $50 per cent, ac-
cording to maturity. Metropolitan Edi-
son Co. announced the issue soon OF
