of the better known specif Hies, wre
gains and losses were impartial1 Na-
rlbuted.
Public Interest was utterly lack lag and
traders evidently demed It wise to hofd
loof In view ef overhanging uncertain
ties.
On the surface there were no ohangea
in the railway labor situation, but the
sluggishness of transportation enarlee sug
gested Increasing doubt ot satisfactory
utroma of tomnrow'a conference. Inter
national conditions were further compli
cated by Chlna'e severance of relatione
with Germany and the sinking of an
American ship within the prescribed war
area. Neither of these incidents exctted
more than paaslng attenotn, but probably
served to curtail operations.
The most encouraging note ef the day
waa sounded by Industrial 1 teres ts, trade
authorities report a rush ef stel Orders.
This waa arnepted aa the more significant
because of the recent advance' of IT to
I0 par ton for fabricated steel and Iron.
Annual atatmenta for 1116, submitted
by several of the steel, auger and tobacco
companies, disclosed pronounced gains In
ea mints and general operations over th
preceding year. These were without winch
effect upon the etocka tnoat concerned.
although sugar and paper taeuea, es
pecially the latter were Irregular and la '
aome Instances materially higher.
Among the few noteworthy gains or th
day were Industrial alcohol, whloh waa
very active at an extreme gain of 4H
116V, on reports that the coaTpany had
been taken over by powerful financial In
terests. Cuban-American sugar roae 1 to

Whrie the candidate waited for a
week as to. developments with refer
ence to a call for a representative
convention, there has since the an
nouncement of his candidacy been is
sued, a caH for a "mass convention"
in opposition to him, the latter con

improvement last fall. At a meeting
at Minatare those interested in the
improvements had decided to bnv
heavy power road machinery, ; with
which it is estimated two miles of

The Great Western Sugar company
has donated $2,500 to these districts
to assist in the work. This wilt make
nearly $40,000 that will be expended
in these precincts for roads this sum

A committee consisting of the fol-
