New York, Feb. 24—Stocks mani- fested a’moderate degree of resistance today, prices recovering sharply in the afternoon after an early period of de- pression and closing with numerous fractional gains. Professional selling was less aggressive, the ehort interest proceeding more cautiously in conse- quence of developments which denoted a lessening of the strain In the foreign sttuation. As a matter of fact, it was generally recognized that the persistent selling of the past few daye had made the market somewhat vulnerable on the bear side. According to impartial ob- servers, the short interest is out of all proportion to the amount of business transacted, this being evidenced in the scarcity of stocks during today's cov- ering movement. Foreign_selling of stocks was less marked, but offerings of high class bonds continued, although on a small- er scale, with less depreciation of val- ues. London’s market for internation- was more steady, much of the for- eicn selling emanating from Amster- 560 Chle. Ge W Hudson HARVARD FENCERS MEET YALE SATURDAY Crimasn. Feilmen Will Meet Yale for First Time This Season. ‘The Harvard fencing team will jour. ney to New Haven Saturday and mest the Yale team for the first time this season. The Yale team made a great spurt at the beginning of the season and won the matches easily. The first snag was encountered at Annapolise on Saturday. when Yale lost a close and hard match. The Yale foilmen were off their form and expect to do better work in the intercollegiates. Harvard has a big fenoing squad and much interest is manifested in the sport in Cambridge. It is expected that the preliminary bouts in the in- tercollegiates wili take place in Bos- ton next month and the finals will take place at the Hotel Astor in New York early in April.

Theoretically Rowland seems to an- Swer every purpose, but it remains to be seen how he will show . when the season opens and there are things to do which show on the surface. The com- ing season will be Rowland’s first in a major league. His record in the minors is of the best, but things are quite different in the big leagues. To begin with, he will be opposed by mas- ters of the are of managing, and his stratesy will be opposed by men of much “experience. Rowland may be capable of accomplishing wenders.

Woman has demanded and has been accorded her place in motordom, just as she has demanded and _received practically everything else she wants, except the bailot, and doubtless she will eventually get that as well. Motor car manufacturers who fail to heed feminine requirements have not made the success they might otherwise have achieved. In many cases it is the final_decision of a mau's wife, sister or sweetheart that settles the question of the car he Is going to buy. Con- sequently, it is only natural that w should consider the needs of woman in the design ang construction of our cars. From a woman's standpoint a mo- tor that requires laborious cranking by hand is a relic of barbarism. She dis- likes puttering around with gas tanks and matches in order fo lurm on the lights.

The transfer of the files to the new office of the secretary of state at Mad- ison, Wis., the other day brought to iight one of the most interesting pieces of automobile news that has been un- covered in the United States in many vears. Indisputabie evidence was brought to Tight to show that the staie of Wis- consin was one of the first, i not the very first, states in the Union to an- ticipate the dawn.of the seif-propelled vehicle. J. 8. Donald, secretary of state for Wisconsin at present time, has become 50 interested in the data he discov- ered in the old files of his office that he has prepared a formal statement 1o show when and how the inception of the modern automobile came about. Wisconsin back in the early 70's and especially in the vear 1875, developed an age of invention and the state les- islature encouraged every sizm of pro- Zress and especially along lines of labor saving devices. That this enthusiasm was not spas modic and euperficial is borne out by the many inventions brought to light at that time. However, the greatest interest centered in the seif-propelled road vehicle and in 1376, 1876, 1877, and 1878 the Wisconsin legislature passed laws for the purpose of en- couraging the work that was then go- ing on along these lines. An erder for 300 large armered me- tor trucks, costing about $1,500,000, was placed by the Russian government and fifty men will be engaged at once to assist the present force at the com- pany’s plant.
