NEW YORK, October 8.-The down.
the middle Of September is one of the
dominating influences in the stoc.,
market
There was great deal of speculative
buying in numerous commodities. with
operations in them similar to those in
stocks, and pools that are now carrying
a larger load than is convenient. The
decline in wheat to around SO cents
bushel is one of the unexpected develop
ments of month when a rise to at
least 10 cents had been anticipated.
The reaction in commodities has also had
some effect on business. for it was the
improvement in the commodity list that
encouraged a part of the purchases of
merchandise few weeks ago.

EASTERN RAILROADS
SHOW BEST EARNINGS
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Glass l railroads in the Eastern dis
trict are the highest earning carriers,
on the basis of net railway operating
income for the first eight months of
this year.
Whereas all carriers have reported
net earnings equal to only 0.93 per cent
annually on property investment, those
in the Eastern district have made a
return of 150 per cent during the same
perod. Property investment is defined
as she value of road and equipment as
shown by the books of the carriers,
including materials, supplies and cash.
Roads in the Southern district re-
ported a net for the eight months
equivalent to 034 per cent per year,
while those in the Western district re-
ported an annual return of 0.40 per
cent.
The comparative good showing of
Eastern carriers is due to the segrega-
ton of traffic in that area. particularly
in coal. miscellaneous freight and in
less -than-carload shipments.

NEW YORK. October 8 (SpeciaD -
A great deal has been said this week
about selling for foreign account. Prob
ably this has been somewhat of an in
fluence. for it would not be surprising
if operators in London who took ad-
vantage of the low prices for American
stocks last Summer should be accepting
profits when they realized that the
American market had gone stale. There
has, however, been some good buying
for European account this week. espe-
cially on Wednesday, when the market

It is felt that cities and coun-

a considerable amount of
money by eliminating positions

First Christmas Trees
Originated in Germany

ON THE wild. sandy heathland
- of the North German plain the
tlark-leafed fir trees have flonrished
for many centuries. 1t is not
strange, therefore. that the Christ
mas Tree" should have it's origin
there. 1t dates back prior to the
days OF Christianity. The early
Egyptians used to employ decorat-
ed trees in their festive season cell
ebratiOns., 1t is a fact well known
by all botaniSts that the palm tree
puts forth shoot each month, and
Mt the time of The winter solstice, a
spray OF palm. bearing twelve
shoots, was employed in the temple
of Osiris to mark the completion
Of the year. CuriOusly enough.
England did not adopt Christmas
trees until the middle of the last
century. The prince eonsort, short
ly after his marriage to Queen Vic
toria. introduced them into Great
Britain.

DUBLIN, June 2.-Ireland and the sons of Ireland will forget bitter political disputes when at the Eucharistic Congress in June they join in the common bond of the faith that St. Patrick planted so firmly l,500 years ago.
 Before a high altar at Phoenix Park, under the blue crowns of the Dublin mountains more than a million worshippers from many nations are expected to kneel when the papal legate celebrates the solemn high mass that climaxes the week of June 20 to 26.

 But the great religious moment will come on the last day when the great men of the churcf--the cardinals, the archbishops, the bish- ops,-marcal in solemn procession from the altar in Phoenix Park to the OConneli bridge.
 Rich with the vivid scarlet and purple robes of the princes. and humble with the severe black and white of parish priests, the 17-mile procession with its hundreds of thousands of marchers, will color Dublin with a splendor it never has seen before, despite the many high celebrations of faith that have been held here.
 More than a quarter of nlil- lion visitors are expected during the week, and, from every coun- try parish in Ireland will come more to augment the religious throngS.

 DEAD NOTABLE
Dead of Jutland Honored by Impressive Ceremony,
 Says Local Man

 MT. Hinrichsen made the trip to the inlet at Capt. Wassner's invi- tation and returned here last Tues day evening on the seaplane Chi chagof with Fred Ordway of the Alaska Scenic Views.
