CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS,
Hani of Corn and Oats on Ilasls with Wheat
Seta Back Values,
Chicago, Nov. 27. Announcements that
hereafter corn and oats would have the
same preference as wheat In the movement
of railway freight led today to a sharp
setback of grain values. Corn finished
heavy lc net lower to We advance with
January $1.20 01.20 and May $1.18 O
1.18. Oats held a net gain of 0c. The
outcome for provisions ranged from 30c de
cline to a rise of 72c.
Breaks In the price of corn took place
chiefly In the last 16 minutes of trading
and seemed the result of word that the
railroads had been oredered to put all
cereals on the Identical basis ot precedence
accorded to wheat. As such a method ot
handling grain Is expected to cause a mate
rial Increase ot arrivals, heavy selling en
sued and support was withdrawn. Unsea
sonable warm, moist weather had previ
ously tended to make corn sympathize with
advances In the oats market.
New high price records for the season
were reached In oats before the govern
ment notice was received that oats, like
wheat, would be rushed forward by the
ratlroads. Declines from top quotations of
the day however, were In rapid progress
when the session closed.
In provisions the main factor was a lack
of offerings.

New York Cotton Market,
New York, Nor. 27. The cotton market
was less active today and fluctuations were
Irregular. After selling at 29.28c, January
rallied to 29.70c, but eased off again, clos
ing at 29.39c, with the general list closing
barely steady at a net decllue of 3 to 23
points.
The opening was 2 points lower to 3
points higher. Liverpool was a buyer and
there was a renewal of trade demand, but
the support was much less active than
recently, and prices soon turned easier
under realizing. Rumors of an easier spot
basis in ins soutnwest probably promoted
the tendency to taks profits, while the prox
imity of Thanksgiving .had a similar In
fluence.
December was relatively quiet and firm
at the close. The first sale ot October de

NEW YORK STOCKS
Uncertain Status of Transpor
tation Situation Resulting
From Pooling Is Again
Chief Deterrent.
New York. Nov. 17. The uncertain status
of the transportation situation resulting
from the prospective pooling of the eastern
railroads to meet war emergencies again
constituted the chief deterrent In today's
stock market. High grade rails were offered
at extreme concessions of 1 to almost 3
points, their heaviness gradually provoking
1 to 2-point reactions In rrominent Indus
trials. General news of the day was rather favor
able! railroad earnings taking a moderate
turn for the bettor, money evincing further
esse and lires or Italian exchange making
additional recovery from Its recent acute de
pression. Trndtng was restricted St all times, how
ever, and mainly of professional origin, this
being especially observed In the relative
activity and strength of the more speculative
Issues. Equipments and the war group were
later Inclined to throw oft the Inertia of mils,
but rallies were little more than tentative
on indifferent support.
United Stales Steel steered an extremely
narrow course between 99 and 97, rallying
only a small fraction and finishing at a net
loss of 1 points. Related stocks moved
in the same Irregular manner, most of the
leaders recording lowest prices Just before
tho close.
Some of the motor shares proved sn ex
ception to the general rule and shippings
and tobacco also hardened at times with
coppers and the leather and paper Issues,
but only a few ot these gains wsre retained
In more than slight measure. Sales
amounted to 515 000 shares.
With the exception of mercantile marine
6s the bond market moved In sympathy with
stocks, Irregular changes being mainly down
ward. Liberty issues were moderately active,
the 4s he; ween 97.76 and 91.03 and the 3s
between 99 and 99.14. Sales, par value, ap
proximated 4.875,000. United States bonds

Nerve Made Him One of
Youngest Bank Presidents
An incident in the early life of
Henry P. Davison, who left a lucra
tive Morgan partnership to whip the
Red Cross into war trim, is told by
Edward Hungerford in the Novem
ber Everybody's. Young Davison, by
dint of much persistence, had become
paying teller of the then new Astor
Place bank.
"A man entered the bank and
shoved a check and business end of
a revolver under the paying teller's
wicket. Davison looked at the check,
then he looked at the man who held
the revolver. Then he glanced at the
check again. It was drawn to the
order of 'God Almighty' and it was
drawn for a million dollars.
"The paying teller never lost his
nerve; neither did he lose that urbane
and quizzical smile of his. He con
tinued to look at the man and at
the murile of the revolver. Then be
read the check aloud, distinctly aloud.
"'It's a lot of money,' said he, so
that his voice carried beyond the
wicket. 'Do you want it paid in cur
rency?' "By this time the thing that lie had
hoped for had happened. The gray
coated 'special on the bank floor
overheard him, noticed the man,
caught the glint of steel from the re
volver, and, working as quietly and
as quickly as good policemen always
work, caught and bound the man.
"The incident for Davison has
never regarded it as anything else
attracted the attention of, the news
papers. They 'played' it up. Among
those who read of it were the officers
of the new Liberty bank, just com
ing into existence downtown. They
wanted men of nerve, and certainly
this young Davison of the Astor Place
bank seemed to have that.
"They asked him to come with
them, and he came, as assistant cash
ier. In seven years he rose from that
post to that of the highest in the bank,
its presidency. At 32 he was the head
of one of the most energetic young
banks in the city of New York and
was, himself, one of the youngest
bank presidents in the country."

HOW J. CAESAR
WALLOPED THE
ANCIENT HUNS
t
History of B. C. 58-53 Repeats
Itself in 1914-17; Modern
Germans Closely imitate
Their Forebears.
From World's Wrork.
There is probably no production o!
the ancient world that has such an
emphatic modern ring as Caesar's de
scription of the Gallic wars. Most of
us remember Julius Caesar as a gen
tleman who spent the larger part of
his existence comf-osinp; Latin h'e
tories that have since vexed the lives
of millions of school boys. Yet no
work deserves more careful reading
at this present hour. The very first
page of the "Gallic Wars" might al
most have been written by a corre
spondent in the present war. The first
people Caesar mentions are the Bel
gians; of all the Gallic races, he says,
"the Belgians are the bravest," and he
attributes these qualities largely to the
fact that they " live next to the Ger
mans, with whom they are constantly
making war." The very names scat
tered over Caesar's first pages bring
up 1,000 memories of the present war.
His third sentence refers to the "Ma
trona river," which is merely the Lat
in form of the Marne. Then there is
the Sequana. which is. of course, the
Seine; the Mosa, which is the Meuse;
the Axona, or the Aisnej the Sabis, or
the Sambre; while the Latin names of
the Gallic tribes are practically all
preserved in the names of modern
French cities or towns. Thus the
Parisii naturally suggests Paris; the
Suessiones, Soissons; the Retni.
Rheims; the Atrefates, Arrasi -the
Calcti, Calais; the Stenones, Senz
and so on indefinitely.
Innate National Character.
Caesar's "Gallic Wars" describes lis
transactions with two great divisions
of the European races, the ancient
Gauls and the ancient Germans. He
entertains toward these people just
about the same sentiments which the
present civilized world entertains to
ward their modern descendants. His
description of these ancient French
men and Germans shows how innate
is national character. Many races
have overrun both Gaul and Germany
since Caesar wrote, and mingled their
blood with these ancient peoples, yet
their fundamental characteristic re
main almost , the same . today as in
Caesar's time. The great Roman gen
eral everywhere betrays his fondness
for thq Gauls iand his detestation of
the Germans. 1 In all the finer things
of life, says Cae6ac, the Gauls are
greatly superior to heir ancient an
tagonists. He finds them brave to
recklessness, exceedingly Impulsive,
light-hearted, gay, "only too ready."
he. says, "for any adventure," It
sounds strangely modern to find such
phrases as "Gallic refinement'' applied
by Caesar to these ancestors of the
modern Frenchmen. Even the Latin
word used by . Caesar is cultus."
which" somehow has a familiar ring.
"The restless spirit of the Gauls", is
another Caesarian characterization
which has a certain veraciousness
even now.
Absorbed in War and Treachery.
On the 'Other hand Caesar hardly
ever mentions the Germans without
showing his hatred and contempt He
describes them as a harsh, uncivilized,
violent people, whose whole life is ab
sorbed in war and, whose relations
with foreigners are marked by treach
ery and a disinclination to observe
treaties and agreements. . "Their busi
ness of life," writes Caesar, "Is sum
med up in hunting and the art of war,
and their training in fcats of hardship
and endurance begins with earliest
childhood." "Open brigandage with
them," he says, "carries no disgrace."
Ferhaps the most marked character
istic shown by Germans in this pres
ent world conflict is a mania for de
vastation. They seem to delight in
destruction purely forits own sake.
Their recent exploit in laying waste
northern France, preparatory to their
retreat, has horrified the world. What
possible purpose did it serve? To un
derstand this proceeding we need only
to revert to our old boyhood friend
Julius Caesar, Two thousand years
ago the Germans manifested that
same love of devastation which they
have recently displayed in France. "To
have a vast desert of unpopulated
land," he says, "lying around their
frontiers is to them an object of much
complacency." "There is no more
coveted distinction than to live in the
centre of a vast wilderness, that has
been carved out with their own swords
along each and all of their frontiers."
Again the Roman refers to the Ger
mans as "that treacherous race,"
which is "bred up from the cradle to
war and rapine."
National Anthem Vindicated
By an Organ Grinder
Evidently it is all a mistake about
the "Star Spangled Banner" not being
singable. The other day, in a pretty
crowded part of Cambridgeport, an
Italian piano-organ man came along
whose machine had the national an
them in its repertoire. He halted the
apparatus on the corner and began to
play it. Instantly at least a dozen
small boys gathered around. One of
them picked up a stick and began to
to beat the time in the regular style
of a chorus conductor. The other boys
ranged themselves before him and
began to sing:
"Oh say can you see, by the dawn's
early light,
What so proudly we hailed." ,
And they sail it well, in clear, strong
voices. The volume of their chorus
was so great that the piano-organ was
a mere accompaniment. Their-voices
went up to the highest note musically,
without a screech and came down to
the lowest as well. More than that,
they sang on, stanza after stanza, until
the hymn was finished. They knew
it all. The Italian trundled his machine
along they went with him, sang it
again. The "Star Spangled Banner"
had triumphed. When the street boys
can sing it all the way through, and
sing it well, it has vindicated itself.
