NEW YORK, March 6. (UP)--
Selective strength carried the
stock market into five-year highs
yesterday with optimism increas-
ed by the fact railroad shares
joined the advance.
Trading was fairl yactive. In
vestment demand improved, par
hcularly from foreign sources.
There was a continuation of good
business reports including such
items as:
Farm buying power increas
ing.
2-Railroad carloidangs show
ing improvement and better earn
ingS forecast.
3-Utilitv earnings increasing,
Retail sales improving and
increasing business reported par,
ticularlv from the furniture trade
5--Building figures improving
and forecasts by real estate eX-
pertS that 1886 will be banner
year, maybe double that Of 1888,
Individual gains at the close
ranged up to more than 7 points
Some of the old-line leaders such
as Chryslcr and u. S. Steel slip
ped behind the market.
Under leadership Of Atchlson,
Topeka and Santa Fe--a western
road which has been enjoying IN
creased business in almost all lin
.eS-thc rail group led the market
on its rally and the shares main
tanned most of their early gains
despite protit-taking. Many be-
lieved the market would absorb
its gains AZ it went along rather
than fal lint" an immediate profit
taking recession.
The Presidents recommendation
for Il taA on undistributed cor
pOratiOn profits was interpreted
as meaning increased dividends
for shareholders. But there was
no assurance such a tax would
pass Congress. Consequently the
same uncertaint ypreveals as be-
fore the message came out with
increased lugubrious statements
fro incorporation heads who feel
the tax will prevent buildin Cup
SURPRISES and thus retard expan.
sion which in turn, they believe,
will serve as a real detriment to
recovery.
Cash buying increased in the
and there were reports Of
improving operations from Lon
don and Canada. There was, bro
kers said, a noticeable improve
ment in cash buying of odd-lots
in high-priced shares.

the principal speakers.
Tydings, hostile to many New

for Mr.. Roosevelt'S reelection on
the basis Of his whole record
Tydings' support was regarded
us significant in state where, at

heartily applaudcd when he said
he would support the president.
".Judging President RooseveIt's

Amount to approximately $500

The Mayor and Town Council met

and shortest session of the year.

proximately DO by so feet on the Third
street lot he recently purchased from
the Baumgartner estate, and also
granted a permit to Blaine Burton to
erect small building on Railroad

an electrical shop.

imately $1,000, were ordered paid. In
cluded in the bills were the salaries

posed auxiliary reservoirs for the

practically certain that nothing will be
done on them this year.

A Chrysles automobile belonging to
DR.. Henry W. McComas, was stolen
from in front of his Office on Second
street Sunday afternoon about $50
o'clock and later wrecked at Clear
water Park, on Caddell Mountain, be-
tween Terra Alta and Kingwood, when

doned at that point. ~

LABOR DAY OUTING HERE
ATTRACTS MANY VISITORS
Crowd Estimated at Five to Sew
en- ThOusand-Parade COnsid-
cred to be of Unusual Interest
WEATHER WAS EXCELLENT

Favored by excellent weather, a
crowd estimated at from five to seven
thousand people thronged the picnic
grounds in Helbig's grove on Monday
for the seventeenth annual Knights Of
Pythias Labor Day outing.
1t was one of the largest crowds
ever to assemble for the event and
judging from the way the rides and
other attractions were patronized,
money was flowing freely.
The parade at ten o'clock officially
opening the festivities also surpassed
in size and interest those of other
years, according to a concensus of
opinion by those witnessing the pro-
cession. Three bands were featured,
The Queen Sylvia Band of Elkins, w.
Va; the Gilbert-Brown Boys Band
of Oakland, and the Crellin Band.
Also included in the parade were num-
erous trades displays, fire departments
from Terra Alta and Thomas, w. Va,
and Oakland; comic attractions and
clowns, an array of well kept, andexcel-
lently groomed ponies and horses from
the mines of the Stanley Coal Com
pany, and the newly formed Scout
troop of Oakland. The livestock from
the Stanley Mines was especially at
tractive and persons acquainted with
mines and the manner of caring for
the ponies and other livestock used
in such work, were heard to re-
mark that they had never seen finer
looking or better kept animals.
DIR. H. w. McComas, marshall, and
members of the parade committee,
were all mounted on fine looking an
imals. The parade disbanded at the
picnic grounds, where amusements
continued throughout the Gay. Con-
certs were given by all three bands.
The address of welcome was de-
livered by former Mayor Grover C.
Stemple, who also introduced Grand
Lodge officers of West Virginia, who
were guests for the occasion.
Harry w. LeGore, former State
Senator from Frederick county, was
present and met and talked with a
large number of voters from every
part of the county.
The automobile was awarded to C.
S. DeBerry, of Terra Alta. Following
the awarding of the car there was a
fireworks display which concluded the
planned program. Amusements of the
keystone Attractions continued I'M
til midnight.
The parking of automobiles was in
charge of the new Scout troop, No. 8,
of Oakland. The members partici-
pated in the parade as their first pub
lie appearance since organizing two
weeks ago.
The picnic also opened homecoming
week for Garrett county and many
former residents were present.
Although no figures were available
members of the Pythian order stated
the net receipts this year should total
more than they have for the past
five or six years.
