Stock Averages
BY VICTOR EUBANK,


NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Wall Street
generally guessed mo war" today
and an early buying rush in the
stock market pushed leaders up to
more than 3 points.
While the overseas picture seemed
a trlf1e brighter, traders inclined
to cash profits on the upswing in
view OF the fact week end is
intervening during which the long
dreaded explosion could occur.
The result was that activity slack
ened somewhat after the opening,
but final prices in most cases were
not far from the best. Transfers
for the two hours were around
100000 shares.
There was further mild revival
OF the optimism which touched off
yesterdays rally as Hitler's terms
for peace with Poland, supposedly
given British Ambassador Henderson
at the lengthy Friday conference,
were delivered to the government
at London and Prime Minister
Chamberlain summoned an emer-
gency cabinet meeting for later in
the day.
Although actual details Of the
Fuehrer's proposals were not forth
coming during the market session.
unofficial word from Rome indicated
they were much less drastic than
had been expected and might pos
sibly lead to a compromise that
would avert another world conflag-
ration. In addition, the second
Roosevelt message to Hitler was
seen as a constructive move to ale
vlate international tension.
At the same time there were still
doubters in boardrooms that der
tag" was not imminent and some
speculative forces remained in neu-
trail territory Notwithstanding the
opinion of number of ANALYSTS
that, war or no war, American in
dustry would maintain its forward
stride. In the meantime the French
called up more troops and all from
tiers bristled with huge military
preparations.
Prominent stocks on the forward
tilt were United States Steel, Beth
lehem, Chrysler, General Motors,
Westinghouse, Union Carbide, Amer
lean Water Works, General Electric,
Loft, Great Northern, Union Pacific,
Anaconda, American Telephone,
United States Rubber, Montgomery
Ward, j. l. Case, International Har-
vester, Standard Oil of New JERSEY
and Texas Corp.
Bid up fractions to more than a
point in the curb were Electric Bond

mid "B" and Standard Steel Spring.

And Seven Months
Months Earnings Rise
To $2,267.S38 From
$1,850,142 Year Ago
BY HAROLD B. ROGERS,

The Baltimore g. Ohio Railroad
Co. showed substantial gain in net
railway operating income in both
July and for the first seven months
OF this year as compared with the
comparable periods last year.
Net rose from $1850,142 in July,
1888, to $2,2678 in July, 1899, for
a gain of $417,696. The same item
rose from $4,364, 462 in the first seven
m )nths of 1898 to $9976,O59 in the
first seven months of 1899, for a gain
Of S5,611,597.
Dividends amounting to $4,464 ,526
we're received during the first half of
1899 by the United States Treasury
and the Home Owners Loan Corp.
from their investments in shares of
1,4OO savings, building and loan as
ISOLATION members of the Federal
Home Loan Bank System.
This brings the total dividends
to the Government from this source
to S27 ,522, 204 since the investments
were authorized by Congress in 1894.
The dividend rates averaged approx
imately 3la per cent.
The Government was authorized
to invest up to $350,00O,000 in these
associations to make available a
greater volume of funds for home
financing purposes. On June 80 last,
the H. o. L. c. investment stood
at $216, 458,810. and that of the
Treasury at s43,991, 700. The latter's
commitments-limited by law to
$4,000 ,000-were confined to Fed
eral chartered associations, while
the H. o. L. G. could invest in both
Federal and State chartered mem
Der institutions.
Nearly s113,00OOOO in dividends
have been declared by Federal as
sociations since their establishment
was authorized six years ago, $780,
246,3OO to private investors and
$23,375 203 to the Government.

nurse friend really put me wise to just
how it could contribute 10 my family's

besides.
Here are some of the things she

Vitamin that is simply must" for
everybody who expects to enjoy per-

So HeatthfuI!
Scientists have given this Vitamin (BD
a special name-Thiamin-beCause of
its importance. Thiamin nourishes
the nerves. 1t is absolutely necessary
for normal growth of children-for
good digestion-for top energy. In
fact, we must have Thiamin to feel our
best, look our best, think our best.
And we need it every day because it is
not stored up in the body. So l now
give my family hot, Thiamin-rich,
Quaker Oats breakfast erery morning.
But Thiamin is only one thing.
Quaker Oats is rich in proteins for
building firm flesh, not fat. 1t contains
the valuable minerals, iron and phos-
phorus Abundant food-energy.
So Thrifty!
And just think serving for serving
Quaker Oats actually costs less than
n as much as any of the six other
most popular cereals.

color flooding her pale face. "Oh.

broke the news to Lady ClotwOrthy
that he and Tracy would be away for
three days at the end OF the week. With
seventy children on her hands she
might have been excused for making
fuss at being left shorthanded. But
she made no fuss. She just nodded,

him. He had reckoned on it gong up
to fifteen.

sunshine after a storm. Now it was

man with the google eyes, the neat
pointed beard, whom some folks called
Donald Duck He had rescued an old
fiddle from amongst the ancient theat-
