Stock Market Prices Rise
to Higher Abnormal Levels
Kew York, Oct. 14. Another week
of buoyancy has been experienced on
the stock market and prices have risen
to still higher abnormal levfcls. Stock;
exchange transactions, which are aver
aging a million shares per day, do not
begin to record the total activities of
this market the outside dealings hav
iag shown enormous expansion, not to
speak of the extraordinary investments
in foreign government bonds and secur
ities. The annual report of the New
York Clearing House showed gross
clearings for the year ending Septem
ber 30 of H7 billions, an increase of
57 billions ov last year. Conditions
favor continued -activity in the secur
ity markets. Industrial concerns are
aoar earning such big profits as to
often make current quotations for
many of them appear still compare
' lively low. This is especially true of
the -steel companies' stocks, which
show profits ranging from 20 per cent
to CO per cent. Many other industrials
are also reporting very large gains in
business, much of which is due to the
prevailing high prices for sll commodi
ties. The steel companies are over
whelmed with orders, some extending
far into ll. Railroads are placing
liberal contracts for cars, locomotives
and rails at high prices without hesita
rioa. Our exports of steel in August
again touched a high record.
Railroad Stocks Boom.
The activity and advance of indus
trials which has long been conspicuous
is now extending to the railroads,
which are displaying great strength in
ronfequence of increased earnings. The
remarkable annual report of Union
Paeifie showed the largest earnings in
t,unrv. includine- income from in
vestments, or over 15 per cent on stock,
sgainst about 11 per cent a year ago
Still better evidence of railroad pros-
peritv, however, was the August report
of the Interstate Commerce Oominis
.inn. which eate net earnings of 126
Km at R2.000.000. compared with

narr demand for many commodities,
the actual scarcity of others, the flood
of gold, the Federal Reserve system
and the abundance of eredit -which
i1im lnut two factors provide are giv

ped from an aeroplane, hits the ground,
rebounds r.ud explodes in the air and is
highly excited by such conditions, this
beiug proved by daily observation
and the appearance of many new oper
ators from all parts of the eountry.
Higher Prices Expected. .
Here and there may be symptoms of
overbuying and flotations of a ques
tionable character; all of which means
that, in view of present high prices,
purchases whether for investment or
speculation, should be made with in
creasing discrimination, favoring the
better grade securities which have not
yet had their full rise.
It is quite evident, however, that
the present movement of abnormal ac
tivity has not yet run its course. All
indications point to unexampled indus
trial and commercial activity for some
months to come. Of course much sus
pends upon the war, the early discon
tinuance of which would force a tem
porary setback and readjustment at
this center. Fortunatc'y, present pros
perity of the United States is based up
on strong foundations, and is not en
tirely dependent upon continuance of
the deplorable destruction in burope.
At present there are no signs of an
early cessation of the war, and the best
opinion is that it will continue at least
until next spring if not longer.
"Tariff War" Talk It Silly.
The two most striking incidents of
the war this week were Lloyd tSeorge's
diplomatic but very candid notice to
neutrals. "Hands off": and Lord
Bryce's sane and high-minded advce
against "A war of trade to follow a
war of arms." It will be well not to
take too seriously the talk of a tariff
war following the war. That there
will be strenuous international coin

tions of the world can expand their
commerce by raising prohibitive tariff
walls is too absurd to receive serious
consideration. While the bitterness ot
war is so intense, retaliation talk is
natural: but commerce and self-inter
est are great peacemakers, and neither
can permanently prosper in any direc
tion where enmity rules. If retaliatory
tariffs are initiated after the war, they
will only do harm and their life will
be nreearioos. Great Britain cannot
prosper under a tariff on raw materials
or foodstuffs. Should she impose any

leader was still in Carronza's army.
tariff on manufactured articles, which
is doubtful it will be more for purposes
of revrnue than lor protection as
policy. British leadership in foreign
trade after the war will probably
make great strides; while the United
States will certainly take the second
place and in some instances will un
doubtedly be a leader.. It will also be
necessary that Russia be taken into
more serious consideration than here
tofore. She possesses vast resources in
timber, minerals and grain, which have
hitherto lacked development because of
inadequate outlets, transportation and
a lack of capital. All of these short
comings are being rectified even now.
Russia Will Prosper.
The opening of the Dardanelles, the
settlement of Balkan difficulties, ltn
proved rail connections with the North
Sea and on the Pacific Coast all mean
new prosperity to Russia, as well as
new and cheaper supplies or raw ma
terials for all the manufacturing coun
tries of the world. New trade routes
will be opened, in fact are being open
ed; and when peace comes we can an
ticipate a new set of commercial activ
ities in all parts of the world, taking
the place of those which we may lose
when the war closes, in tnese new en
terprises the United States, unhamp
ered bv hune war debts and exhaustion
will unquestionably invest a large
share of the proceeds of current pros
perity. Tn Western Europe, in South
eastern Europe, in Russia, in Mesopo
tamia, in South America and In Canada
there will be large demand for capital,
not merely for reconstructive work but
particularly for new development. The
shockiof war will undoubtedly stir up
new energies .and new activities
throughout the world, and no country
will have so largo an amount of avan
able capital as tne United States. Th
war-exhausted nations of Europe must
struggle against a load which will
handicap them for years to eome.
On Friday the market was much un
settled bv peace reports, which in

sador Gerard, however has not yet ar-
rivied, so the truthfulness of rumors
that he brings peace proposals is yet to
be determined. It is well to rememoe
that peace will not lie established over
night, and that negotiations to that
end will be prolonged and tedious.

POLITICS
The campaign now Is on this year,
, And this is no delusion
And there will be some noise, I fear,
And very much confusion.
Great men, possessed of silver tongues
Armed with statistics dreary,
Will exercise their aching lungs,
Until the world grows weary.
There 'a no emergency right now
But we should spend, by gravy,
A half a billion anyhow
To strengthen our weak navy.
The army, too, must be made strong,
Puissant and potential,
And eoaat defenses all along
Are equally essential.
Thus some will talk as smooth as grease,
With seeming normal seuses,
While some will plead to keep the peace
And save these fool expenses.
Brave men who bend 'neath heavy loads
In these two groups 1 mention
To plead, myself, for better roods
Is now my tun intention.
Good roads are what we need today,
Then if dread foes assail us, t
We make a speedy get-away,
And they can't cutch and ffuil us.
If I sit back with loaded gun,
Heaven pity my condition;
On solid roads to cut and run
Fulfills my fond ambition.
The people now at any rate
Must listen to our pieauing,
We'll have it out in dread debate
For weeks snd weeks succeeding.
The oratorie shells will burst,
Throughout the changing season,
Until about November first.
When men get back their reason.

FAIRBANKS 017 MEXICO.
Hon. Charles W. Fairbanks, in August
inn. at Indianapolis, said:
"I have no doubt that the distur
bance in Mexico during the last few
years has been due to an effort on the
part of ambitious, cunning men to xorce
intervention and possmio annexation.
"Sensationalists are adding to tn
confusion of the situation and are mak
ing more difficult the solution of th
nrnhlem.
"If all our speculators in Mexico suf
fer pecuniary loss as the result of re-
curing revolutionists, that is a matter
for future consideration, when stable
government and peace are fully estab
lished In tnat country.
"It is no warrant for shedding th
blood of Americans.
"To sacrifice the life of one soldier
for all the dollars investors or specula
tors have ventured in Mexico would be
the sunremest criminal folly.
"It is not an hour for either little
politics or sensational journalism."
