New York, Aug. 2.—In view of recent eccentric performances of the market last week with is furious spec- ulation in a few volatile favorites and evidences of their instability at the high prices to which they were ele- vated, traders were in doubt at the opening today which way to turn. There was no inclination to attempt a further spectacular up of the war stocks. Pudlic buying of these iasues fell off and the amount of orders accum opposite the weak end was the smallest of several weeks. The initial tendency was to take profits when opportunity offered, rether than 244 to the load of speculative holdings and the rather quiet opening was marked by small changes. The list moreover, was stronger presently as it became apparent that the war shares were holding well and there Was no great pressure in any quarter. was no longer con- centrated In & group of favorites, but t stocks.

These reports came not only from industries occupied with war orders but from various other lines.

August looks like an o heavy month. The fact that the rain has been so heavy for the past three weeks is accepted by many as proof that the next four weeks the state will undergo a prolonged period of dry and beautiful weather. Tourists now need have no fear about visiting Maine, as conditions are improving ‘dally and the roads will soon be in the best of condition. Dario Resta, recognized as the lead- ing racing car driver of 1915, by Vir- tue of his overwhelming triumphs in the Chicago 500 mile contest and in the Vanderbilt and Grand Prix events earlier in the year on the coast, is a genuine motor cnthusiast off the track. The great English-Italian who shat- tered all records for speed in the Chi- cago motor marathon, now is spend- ing most of his time prior to the open- ing of the fall racing season on the roads in the middle west accompanied by_his wife, ta recently purchased an Amer- ican speedster, and he perhaps is one of the proudest owners in the country, for he believes that he has one of the fastest and best looking machines on the road. While in Indianapolis preparing for the last Memorial day race, a make of the car he purchased made its appearance on the market, and it was not long before the driver and his wife became much attached to the car. In Chicago Mrs, Resta used one of the speedsters to make daily trips to the race track, to watch her husband in his daily speed trials, and a few days after the record breaking contest, Resta purchased one of the machines. “It will give mie considerable pleas- ure to show my friends in England sautomobile looks like, after I have finished my racing in this country,” says Resta, With the great number of tours that are being made this summer, it is interesting to note the attitude of some of the tourists in regard to the cars in which they attempted the journey. Some of them will insist that it is oughly tried out with which the own- er is perfectly familiar is the best car to take. Among the many tourists an automobile party from Danielson included Mr. and Mrs. John 'W. 2 son, Mrs. John Levins and Miss Mertie Chase, who were entertained as week end guests by Mrs. Lucy Patterson at her home at Centreville. Auto-truck parties on Sundays seem to be quite' the rage in Taftville, as from there last Sunday three loads went to Ocean Beach and to Rocky Point. All reported a pleasant trip and good going.
