The Vernal Tragedy.


School amt so bad when Winters here
And not Sc good-but still,
The crick's been frozen half a year
Above the old gray mill;
The snow is over all the ice
Be,ow the pasture gate,
An only maybe once or twice
You git a chanst to skate.
But when the birds are on the wing,
An when the grass gets green,
And when a feller wants to sing
Well, you know what I mean
When pickerel is to be caught
In all the yaller brooks.
Whoever bankers to be taught
The stuff that's in the books?
The school house then's just like jail
You can't get satisfied;
You'd ruther it would snow or hail
Than be so nice outside.

WALL STREET
CONFIDENT Of
INITIATION
By WALL STREET SPECTATOR

By WALL STREET SPECTATOR
NEW YORK, Aug. 18 Q.N.S0.
Stocks came through with .
Garrison finish" yesterday, aud
as far as the street is concerned,
all is we'll again with the world.
Yesterdays rally was logical in
the face of the reversal in the
wheat market.
Initiation talk in Wall Street
is more prevalent currently than
it has been at any time since
the break.
Both the public and the pro-
fessional element agree that in
flation is coming in a very active
fashion and the Administrator
will not hold off on it very much
longer. That accounts for the
steady dribble of odd-lot buying
which has been coming into the
market in recent weeks. The
break in the dollar yesterday told
the story OF now the foreign eX-
change crowd feels about it.
Should the commodities show
signs of dipping again, it is not
at all unlikely the inflationary
needle will be used despite the
Federal financing this fall.
The Government bonds in the
recent offering were sold on the
basis of a 70-cent dollar anyway.
Omission of the United Cor.
poration dividend clears up one
situation overhanging the market
and the stock should now act
better. The Celanese and Chrysler
groups are operating full blast
again. London is talking of
higher prices for gold over the
next three months.

MARKET ACTIVE
AND POINTING
To UPSIDE
BY LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Aug. 18 G.N.S0.
Continuation of the buoyant tone
In the commodity markets, stimu-
lated the stock market to further
activity on the upside today.
Gains in the pivotal leaders
ranged from fractions to more
than a point with the liquor
stocks in the van of the advance.
Wet Shares Active
National DistillerS was active
and ran up more than a point
carrying with it American Com
mercial Alcohol, Schenley Dis
tillers and other "wet" shares.
Railroad shares also showed a
distinctly better tone, with Atchi-
son up more than point on
short covering and more long
buying. New York Central,
LackaWanna and Union Pacific
also were in demand at higher
prices.
A better tone in Consolidated
Gas and American Telephone lent
encouragement to the traders in
the utility shares and the group
as a whole.
Trading TaperS Off
Profit taking at the end Of the
first hour checked the advance
and brought fractional losses into
@ number of issues.
Trading tapered off sharply in
che decline, however, and the ma
jority of the leaders steadied
slightly above last nights close.

Mob Violence Strikes

their picket lines to continue the
paralysis gripping the soft coal
field on the fourth effective"
day of the soft coal code.
Two workmen were clubbed by
200 picketS outside the Spang-
Chalfant seamless tube mill at
Ambridge. One ran the gantlet
and fought his way into the plant.
The other scurried away.
Later, about so men-either
deputies or workmen-were smug-
gled into the plant in box cars.
When the same strategy was at
tempted again strikers foiled the
attempt by jamming switch blocks
with railroad ties. A tear gas bar
rage was laid down for the first
coup.
300 Invade LatrObe
Two other worken' were beaten
and slaShed by a mob at the ben.
zol plant of the Carnegie Steel
Company in Clarion, while police
arrested two men and two women
in a disturbance at South Green's
burg, where a picket line of 1000
guarded the gates Of the Walworth
Company.
Only $50 of the plants normal

80 RUM RINGS
OPERATING
OFF COAST
p ROBERT S. THORNBURGH
NCopyright. 1898. by International News
SArVica

ROBERT S. THORNBURGH
NopSright, 1898. by International News
Service.)
Thirty rum-Smuggling syndicates
are operating off the northeast
srn coast Of the United States,
while three rings are running
liquor over the Pacific coast,
according to information in the
hands OF the Coast Guard today.
The Atlantic syndicates have
rom one to six vessels each,
while the smuggling business on
the west coast is said to be more
consolidated, with larger operators
intensely active. -.
These rings for months have
been employing every device to get
liquor into the United States, as
well as preparing for q continu-
alton or even an increase of their
activities after repeal, according
to Coast Guard officials, in the
belief that taxes and tariffs on
the legitimate product will be
high.
Prepare for Drive
Repeal of the Eighteenth
Amendment may complicate for
. year or two rather than solve
the whisky smuggling problem,
according to fears expressed by
Coast Guard officials who are
watching the situation carefully.
Repeal of the amendment will
mean that the Canadian law
prohibiting clearance OF liquor
tor American ports will become
void. What course the SNUG
glers pursue will depend upon
conditions in the American mar.
ket. The Coast Guard, however,
IS making plans for a drive
against the rum runners on the
Great Lakes.
Canada stopped giving liquor
clearance papers for the United
States on the appeal of this
Government at time when an
enormous volume of whisky and
beer was being smuggled into this
Oountry several years ago.
Limited U. S. Supply
In addition to the probability
Of fairly high tax and tariff on
liquor, the limited American sup
ply that cannot be built up to
requirements for several years
and the inevitable heavy demand
will be important factors to
stimulate the activities Of the |
GmugglerS.
Furthermore, the economy pro-
gram has forced the Coast Guard |
to dismiss many men and lay up
hundreds of its rum chaserS, Civ
ing the smugglerS an added
advantage.
