OPTURN IN STOCK
MARKET Continued
Gains of ! to More Than 3

| Session.

Associated Press Financial Writer.
NEW YORK July Financial mar
kets boiled over renewed inflationary
fires today following administrative in
timations that the dollar was still too
high in terms Of leading foreign ex-
changes. Stocks, with gains ranging
from l to 3 or more points over wide
front, closed strong in active trading.
Transactions approximated 100000
shares.
With the revival of speculative en-
thusiasm, grains leaped forward for
gains Of l to more than 3 cents j
buShel, cotton got up more than 81 d
bale, bar silver firmed five-eighths of a
cent an ounce to 36as cents the Brit
ish pound sterling and European gold
currencies displayed revival of
strength, and secondary bonds moved
forward jubilantly. Stocks were turned
over in large volume from the opening
on, and the ticker tape was several
minutes behind floor dealings through
out the session.
While all stock categories participated
IN the resumption of the upSwing, Allied
Chemical, with a gain of around l6
points, was the days feature. The set
tlement of the chemical company's bat
tie with the Stock Exchange was the
principal factor in the rally of this
issue. Central of New Jersey, although
rather inactive, spurted 1712 points.
Rail and commodity shares were the
flrmest groups. Leading gamers of /
to or more included American Can,
United States Steel, American Smelling,
American Telephone, Santa Fe, Erie,
Baltimore & Ohio, Southern Pacific,
Union Pacific, New York Central, Case.
Consolidated Gas, Kennecott, Owens
Illinois, Celanese and American Rolling
Mills.
Not satisfied with its substantial &C..
complishments in the first half of 1898,
the market began the second half of
the year with a cheerfulness that
smacked Of previous boom times.
Analysts of the recent advance point
ed out that prices of number of lead
ing industrial stocks are now about
midway between the high and low
points of 1926. Utilities. due to rate
making uncertainties and other prob
lens, have Jagged somewhat, and the
rails, notwithstanding their apparent
buoyancy of the moment, have consid-
cradle distance to 60 before attaining
their averages of seven years ago.
Recent flrmness of the gold mining
shares has again revived rumorS that
the Government is considering estab-
ishment in this country of a free"
gold market. While the authorities
have previously denied any such in
tention, mining men are hoping that
this view will be altered soon and that
gold, instead of selling at the official
rate Of $2067 a fine ounce, will be per-
mitted to find its own level, which, in
the free" London market, Is around SIS.

HAYRACK REPLACED BY
STORM WEEKS AFTERWARDS

Fosston.- One of the "talest" stor-
les reported following the recent
wind storms comes from Fosston. An
old lumber wagon, little used and
standing in the Fred Lavoi barnyard,
was struck by storm earlier in the
season and the bayrack sitting on it
was lifted off and thrown upon the
ground. Left there awaiting a con-
venient time to put it back in place,
the wind storm two weeks ago picked
up the heavy rack and put it back in
position on the wagon in almost the
identical spot in which it had origin
ally rested.

FUSES UNSCREWED BY
LIGHTNING CHARGES

Montevideo.-A bolt of lightning
which entered home through radio
aerial burned out and threw electric
light fuses to the floor. The fuses
had been screwed into the sockets,
and electricians were unable to ex-
plain how such a happening could
have occurred. The lightning, which
struck at the home Of M. E. Chamber
lin, Montevideo, burned up the 100
feet of twisted copper wire which
served as an aerial an dentered the
house, blowing open the radio and
putting all electrical devices, includ-
ing the range and telephone, out OF
commission.

and so far as Mr.. Steosz has not
found a tsick of wood large enough
to identify as his own. In Worthing-
ton the cyclone split the garage at
the j. V. johnson farm like an Eng
lish walnut leaving the car standing
without scratch.

NINETY DOLLARS THROWN
INTO DUMPING GROUNDS

Sacred Heart.-A sum of nearly
500 in currency almost disappeared
from view on the village dumping
grounds last week. Some worthless
clothing belonging to the late Jim
Doyle had been hauled away. Later
it was determined that a sum of
money in his possession when he died
was missing. Two very determined
gentlemen hurriedly visited the dump
ing grounds. There, sewed away in
side his discarded trousers, was found
over $50 in currency.

Though His Place in
History Was Won in
Other Fields, the Fa-
nous President Now
Is Emerging as a Great
Figure in Warfare.

with strategy. In this, as in most human ac-
tivities, there is right and wrong kind OF in
reference.
circumstances forced Lincoln in the early
part of the war to interfere in the wrong way,
but he was quick to see that 1t was the wrong
way, and he was the last man to attempt to
put upon another responsibilities of which no
statesman worthy of the name can divest him
self.
HE had learned from experience that the
conduct Of war must be organized like any
other process Of Government. He had learned
the need of unity Of command; therefore he
placed Grant in command of all the Federal
forces; he had learned that he required some
one at his side to interpret his policy to Grant
in military language, and to keep him in toucn
with Grants doings and needs; therefore he
kept Halleck at Washington as chief of the
staff.
He had learned that the job of Secretary
Of War was not to make plans for or to issue
orders to his generals, but to supply the armies
with their needs in men and material Having
learned these things he put them into prac-
tice ."
In the earlier years OF his war administra-
ton, Lincoln seems to have suffered about
equally from two quite unlike types Of general
ship; one type Of general never quite knew his
own mind and kept asking the President to
settle military questions of a technical nature:
the other type viewed the Presidents military
judgment with profound contempt and con-
sidered him little better than nuisance. The
former type is illustrated by Gen. Hooker; the
latter by Gen. Mcclellan.
Hooker dragged the President into making
decisions for him which he should have made
for himself. In the Summer Of 1853 he was
asking advice about meeting Lees probable
advance, ending his letter with, "after giving
the subject my best reflection, am of opinion
that it is my duty to pitch into his rear, al
though IN 20 doing the head of his column may
reach Warrenton before I can return. viii it
be within the spirit of my instructions to do
SOP"
Linceln's reply sounds more picturesque than
technically competent. He wrote:
II would not take any risk Of being tangled
up on the river the Rappahannock) like an OK
jumped half over fence, and liable to be torn
by dogs front and rear, without fair chance
to gore one or kick the other"
Evening star., 1933-02-12

HE insolent contempt which Mcclellan
showed toward the President Is almost In
credible One Of Lncolns secretaries, the sub
sequently famous John Hay, recorded in his
diary the following instance, in November OF
1861:
"The President. Gov. Seward and went over
to McClellan's house tonight. The servant at
the door said the general was at the wedding
of Col. Wheaton at Gen. Buells and would
soon return
I'VE went in and after we had waited about
an hour Mcclellan came in, and without pay
ing any attention to the porter, who told him
Evening star., 1933-02-12

the President was waiting to see him. went up
stairs, passing the door where the President
and the Secretary Of State were seated.
They waited about half an hour and sent
once more q servant to tell the general they
were there; and the answer came that the
general had gone to bed. merely record this
unparalleled insolence Of epaulettes vithouS
comment. >"
So far from dismissing the naughty general
for his insulting behavior. Lincoln chose TO
overlook it entirely and to show in return the
utmost courtesy. A few months later We una
him apologizng to Mcclellan in most concilia-
tory fashion for overriding one Of the orders
Mcclellan had issued.
THE Presidents letter says: "Tfais morning I
felt constrained to order Blenker's division
to Fremont, and write this to assure you thas
did 50 with great pain, understanding that
you would wish it otherwise. II you could
know the full pressure Of the case, am con1-
dent you would justify 1t, even beyond . mere
acknowledgment that the Commander In
Chief may order what he pleases"
The Commander in Chief may order what
he pleases, but the case of Gen. Meade at the
battle of Gettysburg suggests that these orders
are not always obeyed. The story comes to US
from the late Robert T. Lincoln, the Presidents
eldest SON.
The Confederate Gen. Lees situation after
the Battle of Gettysburg was desperate. To save
his army, the Confederacy's last hope, he must
get it across the Potomac River at once; but
the heavy rains had washed away the bridge
he expected to use.
Lincoln saw, and tried to seize, this match
less chance to crush or capture his force. Why
he failed IS thus explained by his son Robert in
. communication recently published in t.
American Historical Review:
uCNTERNG his room right after the battls
L Of Gettysburg" wrote Robert Lincoln,
Il found him In tears, with head bowed upon
his arms resting on the table at which he sat.
'T asked him what was the matter
Ny boy, said he, when heard that the
bridge at Williamsport lover which Lee must
cross to eScape) had been swept away, sent
for Gen. Haupt and asked him how soon he
could replace the same. He replied, IF were
uninterrupted I could build . bridge with the
material there within a hours, and, Mr.. Prest-
dent Gen. Lee has engineers Is skillful q ]
am"
Upon hearing this continued President
ransoln. at once wrote Meade to attack with,
cgt deAy and II successful TO destroy my let.
es, but IA case Of failure, to preserve it for his
vindicattou, have just learned that, at Q
council Of war Of Meade and his generals, Il
had bean determined not to pursue Lee, ana
now the opportune chance Of ending this bitter
struggle Is lost"
Evidently Meade was not the man to WIN
the var. Lincoln wrote him . gentle letter or
rehuke for his colossal blmder, but finally de-
cik3ed net 10 send 1t. Soon afterward he placed
Grant In supreme command and it was the
steadlast way IN which be supported Grant,
and tl,e way In which Grant co-operated with
hin sAse nnaai1 won The var.
