STOCK MARKET OPENS STRONG Changes Only Fractional— Bail Issues Quiet. NEW YORK, Oct. 26—The stock market showed a stronjr tone during the first fifteen minutes today, but business was small in volume and the changes in nearly all cases were limited to fractional amounts. Steal common was in scant supply and moved up % to 89% on a few transactions. Baldwin Locomotive rose % to 115% an s the same amount of gain was made in Republic Steel which Bold at 79. Mexican Petroleum rose % to 193%. Other oil stocks moved up slightly, Royal Dutch advancing % to 78%. Tobacco Products was prominent, advancing nearly one point to 6S. Coca Cola was a weak feature because of the action of the directors yesterday in suspending dividend payments and declined 1% to 25%. . . Seneca Copper was firm, moving up to There was little doing in the railroad issues. , . . The market showed a great deal or rregularlty during the forenoon, some issues turning reactionary when the ca.l monev rate opened at 9 per cent. Steel common lost all of its early upturn, selling at 89%. Baldwin declined to 114%. Sears-Roebuck was again under pressure and fell from 111% to 108%. Coca-Cola was steady after its dec.ine to 25% and rallied to above 26. Texas & Pacific was in demand, advancing 1 point to 23%. United Retail Stores rose over 1 point to TO. A spurt in Standard Oil was the only feature in the dullness that enveloped in trading in the afternoon. It advanced four points to 715. Leather stocks continued under pressure - following unfavorable earnings statements by Central and American Side and Leather. Central sold down to 38% and American preferred touched 57%. off 1%. The market closed Irregular. United States Steel 89%. up %; Baldwin Locomotive 114%. off %; Mexican Petroleum 153%, up %; Pan American Oil 91. up %: Texas Company 52%, up % ; Coco Cola 27%, up %: Ceutral Leather 38% off 1; American Hide and Leather 58, off 1; Beading 97%. up %. (By Thomson & McKinnon.) —Oct. 26 In the stock market at the present time there is an entire absence of uniformity. Individual stocks move upward or downward, because of special reasons that have no general application. In the oil group, which has been among the most popular and active on the stock exchange list, we find some issues that are responsive to neiw and successful developments. In the steel most Interest has been centered on United States Steel common because of repeated rumors of extra distribution by the company and furthermore because this company is doing a better business and working a larger percentage of capacity than the other companies, which may he explained by a more favorable price list. The copper shares continue in their dullness to reflect the declining price of the metal, which has reached a figure that is unprofitable for some of the producers. General business continues in an unsettled state and money has again been a disturbing element. Taking all things Into consideraticki it is not at all surprising that the stock market has become a dull affair, but this very dullness in a way means strength. And It is possible that this is an indication of the stock market having com pleted that which general business is now trying to do, adjust itself to the new conditions. Technically the market is satisfactory and quotations are sufficiently low to encourage the hope of a rising tendenej as soou as something develops to encourage more active trade.

Receipts for the Monday market were fairly high at 7,000, after many hogs came in during the late part of the roar ket, and they were still higher today at between 9,000 and 10.000. which seems to show that farmers are of the opinion that there is but little hopes of a revival of prices. The tone of the trading on the market was fair, with both the local packers and eastern shippers active. It was estimated that local packers took übout 4.500 of the hogs on the market and that shippers bought about 5.000, which would made n good clearance for the day unless hogs came in on the late market and were not sold. Good heavy hogs generally brought $12.50<812.75, but one load of good heavy hogs brought the top of the market, sl3 There were but few real heavy hogs on the market, the bulk of them below the 225-pound mark. Good mediums and lights brought about the same prices, $12.354212.50. Pigs were down fully 750, with the bulk at sl2 50. Roughs were also lowet at $10.304/10.75, with a few at sll The bulk of sales for the day was $12.50. Trading on the cattle market waa active on the few good cattle among the 400 receipts, and quiet on the common and poor stuff. Prices were generally steady with a few fairly good steers and built* stronger. There was little stale stuff on ties market. The tone of the calf market was firm, with prices about steady U..w<b.r there wus an extreme top of $15.50. which was paid for a considerable number of cal Tea. . , , .

AttorneyGeneral Palmer appeared in the District Supreme Oout today and asked for a further continuance of final arguper t on the plan of the five large packers for the disposal of their atockyards.

GRAIN MARKET MAKES ADVANCE I Wet Weather Chief FactorProvisions Higher. CHICAGO, Oct. 26,—Short covering and j general buying by commission houses caused a sharp advance in grain quotations on the Chicago Board of Trade today. Wet weather throughout the grain belt also aided in strengthening the market. : Provisions were higher. December wheat was up l%e at $2.01 at the opening and showed r gain of S%e additional at the cloze. March wheat up lc at the opening, $1.94, and closed B%c higher. December corn, after gaining %c at tha opening at 80%e, advanced 2%c addi- j tional In later trading. May corn was up %c at the opening at j 87c and gained l%e more at the close. ! December oats wos up %c at the open- [ lng, 53%c, and closed up l%c addi- | Gonal May oats was up %c at the open ; ing, 58%e, and at the close was up | another l%c. (By Thomson & McKinnon) —Oct. 26Wheat—There ,’.as been sufficient foreign demand for wheat today and recently to overcome the hedging sales against purchases of the Canadian crop. The volume of export business has been so large as to bring about a change ot feeling on the part of many in the trade. There are some reports of increased offerings from the Southwest. It remains to be seen whether the selling by the producers will be sufficiently large to settle the foreign buy/ng. Corn—-A belief on the part of cash handlers that the movement of corn from the country would very shortly decrease haa pervaded the entire corn market Export sales from 300,000 to 400,000 bushels have been reported, but the domestic demand Is still elow. Cash handlers are attracted by the small premiums for old corn, and consequently are building up moderate accumulations Me would not be surprised to see a further advance, but we are unable to discover any real change In the supply and demand situation. We therefore suggest that after a further advance, the selling side offers opportunities. Oats—Recent sellers of oats have been prompted to accept profits, the reason for this being the strength in other grains. No foreign demand Is dlacove Table, and little if any improvement In the domestic situation. On any advance from this level, sales are possibly in order. Provisions—The nearby deliveries of provisions have shown less strength than the more deferred. This Is due to the fact that today buytug has been mainly short covering prompted by the action !of grains. We do not think this market has the appearance of a protracted advance.

The radium was being used in treating a negro woman for cancer at the hospital and was left attached for a certain length of time. Deciding that she did not like the odor of radium and saw no good in a little thing like that, anyway, the woman.happenlng to be left alone, cut the string holding it and going to the bathroom threw the costly remedy into the sewer. When the attending phyaloians returned and found the radium missing and learned of its disposition excitement reigned supreme. Plumbers were hastily summoned, sewer pipes torn up and rigorous search made. After extended search, the tiny tube, hardly larger than a needle, was found lodged against the sewer trap in the yard of the hospital. A young plumber named Sullivan received the SIOO reward offered for the recovery of the radium. Flour Mill to Be Sent Nearly to Arctic Line PORTLAND, Ore..

The plant, which is a steam operated mill, will be shipped, to Seattle, thence by steamer to St. Michael, south of Nome, where it will be carried by boat up the Yukon river, 836 miles to the mouth of the Tanana river, and thence 350 miles to Fairbanks. The mill has been purchased by the Tanana Valley Agricultural Association and its capacity Is twenty-fir© barrels a day. Those Lonesome Days Seem to BeJS T o More! KANSAS CITY.

Everything Is marked up In Tampico Many articles can be bought in towns only a few miles away for one-half and one-quarter of the price charged. This indicates that there it no reason for the extremely high prices except that oil production has brought an abundance of money to Tnmpico and the shopkeepers and hotel men want their share High Dreams Fall Far HIAWATHA, Kan., Oct. 21.—Chief Harrison Connell, an Indian, bought an airplane in Kansas City several months i ago to give exhibition flights. He brought the plane to his home here where scores of redskins assembled to see their chief fly.

CARTER HARRISON SEES COX VICTORY Trip to Southwest Shows Big Democratic Power. CHICAGO, 0ct.26. —Carter H„ Harrison, five times mayor of Chicago, who ha* just returned from a stay of two month* la Arizona and New Mexico, says he is convinced Cox and Roosevelt will b* elected and that one of the powerful factors in their success will be the support of the bread winners of the nation. “While on my western trip I talked to many working people, large numbers of whom were railroad employes, conductors, brakemen and flagmen, and I found that the feeling generally held by them was that their salvation for the future demanded the defeat of the forces and Influences which nominated Senator Harding," said Mr. Harrison. He continued: “Frankly, the sentiment was not so much pro-Cox as It was against the factors that nominated Senator Harding, and they will vote almost solidly for the Democratic nominees, Is my prediction, based upon my own observation and conversations.” ' LAY OFFS ATTRIBUTED TO POLITICAL MOVE. In this connection Mr. Harrison referred to the fact that workingmen were being laid off in some sections for political effect. He said: “The Republicans ar® trying to play the same old game, as in the days of Mark Hanna, that of discharging and laying off men just before the election, trying to terrify them into the notion that they will have to vote for Harding to get jobs. “This but shows the dominating control of business- by the interests; but the workingmen will not be fooled, for they know the election of Harding, with all that would follow It, would prove dangerous to their future welfare.” Discussing the League of Nations and Senator Harding's attitude toward it, Mr. Harrison said: “Senator Harding found himself between the devil and the deep blue lea, and he decided to Jump toward Old Nick. “The political game that th* Republicans are now playing Is one that would sacrifice everything for expediency and party success. “Everyone knows that there will be a League of Nations and that the United: j States will be the most influential memi ber. so realiy the Republicans in their 1 i opposition to the league favored by' President Wilson are playing to the voters of the element that was not American during the war. PLAY FOR GERMAN VOTE 18 POINTED. “They are playing for the pro-Kaiser vote and are willing to sacrifice America’s great name and the future of the nation for their own temporary success, j “The patriotic German is In the great majority In this country, and he will, when he gives the matter sober thought, I hardly lend himself to that brand of 1 propaganda because he realizes, as d® . other patriotic citizens, that the United i States Is the strongest nation in the world and can not keep removed fr*cn world affairs. “Wars of the future necessarily would Involve the United States, and it is ai j necessary for the United States to tak< every possible chance to avoid fa tun I wars as it is for other nations to and( so. “No one can say the League of Na ' tions is a positive prevention again* ; war, but surely it will immensely lessen the possibility of war, and that is what Interests the citizens of every cirillxec | country in the world." In dlacußring the chances of the elec i tion. of Governor Cox, and his opinio r.s to the situation in Arizona and Ne’ 'Mexico. Mr. Harrison said: ; TELLS OF STATE FIGHT IN NEW MEXICO. “I spent two months in Arizona ar New Mexico and am familiar with/ situation there. § ■ *• Arizona Is conceded to Governot* and it is generally believed that W Mexico will be Democratic, owing to the gubernatorial fight, which is even more intense than the one in Illinois. “I am sure New Mexico will give her three electoral votes to Governor Cox. “in 1916 these went to Mr, Hughes by an extremely narrow margin." Mr. Harrison said that he probably would take an active part in the campaign, but wonld confine his speaking engagements to Chicago and vicinity. Mr. Harrison’s guess is that most women will support the Democratic ticket. Os this he said: •'The more the American voter thinks i of existing conditions the more certain for success are .’he chances of Governor \ Cox. “This is true ns to the men Toters. and ; especially true as to the women voters, who. In casting a general Tote for the, first time in a great national campaign,, I will be controlled by what the regard j es the great moral principle involved in’ I that campaign. “This Is one reason I predict thst C*x| and Roosevelt will be swept Into ofilce next month."
