STOCKS ASSUME GENERAL RALLY ONWALLSTREET Belief in Early Settlement of Rail Strike Has Big Effect. TRADERS ARE HOPEFUL Leading Railroads Draw Keen Following Throughout Day. Twenty industrial stocks Wednesday averaged 94.84, off .85%; twenty railroad stocks averaged 85.59, off. 55%. Bv Vnited Financial NEW YORK. July 27.—The Wall Street Journal today says: Stock prices rallied throughout the list on the New York Stock Exchange today, reflecting the feeling prevailing in the financial community that early settlement of both the railroad and coal strikes was in prospect. While the outlook for opening of negotiations between miners and operators in an effort to settle the trouble on the basis of the old wage scale and recog nitlon of the union could not be con etrued as a victory for the mine owners, Wall Street felt that the most im perative thing at the moment, so far as general business was concerned was to have coal production resumed before the coal shortage made further Inroads on industrial activities. Railroad stocks was the first group to reflect the more optimistic viewconcerning an early break in the labor cloud. Pennsylvania, Baltimore & Ohio and Chesapeake & Ohio obtained new highs for the year, while New York Central and other representative carrier Issues scored substantial recoveries. Crucible’s remarkable rise of more than 7 points overshadowed other developments in the industrial group, but stocks of this class were generally small.

YANKEE TOURIST EVER OCCUPIED SHOWING lISES"' Traveling About Europe Ceases to Afford Many Pleasures of Yore. PARIS NOISY AS CHICAGO Taxicabs. Create Incessant Din, Winding in and About Streets. By UD.V.4 FERBER Voted Short Story Writer; Author of “The Girls." (Copyright, 1992, by Vnited Press.) CARLSBAD. July 27—When I went to school in Appleton, Wis., I was taught that Russia was a country so despotic that its people were obliged to obtain passports to enter or leave it. The American tourist passport, after a month of Europe, Is a document greasy with handling. Before the days of these omnipresent papers, the traveler could fall peacefully asleep in hia “wagon-lit" compartment on a French train and on opening his eyes glance out of the window to exclaim, “Oh, lookie! We‘re in Germany now.” Today, when you cross France into Germany, or elsewhere, you know it welL The tier is no longer an lmaginery line. bristles with officials. Schedules Changed All train schedules are so arranged that frontier stations are reached some time between midnight and 4 a. m. A uniform enters and says: "Passport!" By now your passport is so trained that it automatically hops out of your wallet arfd unfolds Itself. It may be that the uniform demands tickets instead of passports, or suitcases instead of tickets, or trunk keys instead of passports, or suit-cases instead of tickets. Travel Regulations Many Still, these are minor changes In European travel. You get your real shock when you first read the printed sign now posted in all hotel corridors; "Guests are warned not to leave shoes outside the door at any time." "Lock your trunks and bags” reads another sign. Still another, “always leave your room key at the keydesk.” Still another change that you bitterly resent. The one-horse fiacre of delightful Par ; memory has vanished. In its place is a swarm, a plague, a pestilence of little, red, squawking, screeching taxis driven by chauffeurs so madly reckless that their method makes the technique of the notorious cab drivers of Chicago seem like that of old Uncle Silas driving the ox team into town with a load of hay.
