Trading was heavy before the closing and many stocks, notably wetors, oils, steeis, geuipments, affiliated industri- als and a score of miscellaneous spe- cialties, showeq gains for the day of from § to & points. Sales for the day approxumated 2,200,000 shares. Rates-for call loans heid at 16 per cent until about 2 o'clock. Then lhey broke to 12 and rapidiy went to six, tide normali rgte. This was believed to mark the p ing of the stringent money period. Leaders ia the spirited rally which followed were the issues which broke most severely yesterday and the day before. The market was steadier at the opening today but tRe ‘nitial high rates for all causej an avalanche of selling Jn the mext hour or two. Factors which contributed to the lower rates were the lending of money by brokers who offered their surplus funds, and announcement from Washington that the Federal Reserve Boarg had taken no actio it conditions here, Ope of the leaders of the sp rally was General Motgs, wh opened at a 15 point rise only to lose its advantage and finally advanced by leaps and bounds to 325, an extreme recowvery of 4 bpoints. Mexican ve- troleum, in which support seemed al- most altogether lacking yesterday, rose over 30 points The extent to which the short in- t pest involuntarly part:cipated fin the .rebound by covering of contracts is. naturally a matter_ of. debate, the market's recuperati power sug- gested that no small pari of the re- cent reversal was due to bearish ag- gressions.

Tranter, president of the ¥asig- Tipton Company, estimates that more than $2,000,000 has been paid for thor- oughbred race horses this year in the United States. Mr, Tranter's concern alone realized $879,210 for racers, young and old, at Saratoga in August, 227 yearlings bringing $603,500, an average of $2,659, in the remarkable sales.held during the meeting. The whole number of yearlings sold at auction in the United States in 1918 was 233, and they brought $248,620, an average of $1 , while in 1917 the number was 273, the total $383 275, and the average $1,404. The highest price realized for a yearling at Saratoga was $25,000 paid by J. K. L. Ross to Emil Herz for the Chestnut colt by Sunstar, out of Marion Hood. Mr. Tranter is authority for the statement that Mon- ford Jones paid $40,000 at private sale for the twb-year-old colt Brookholt, by Ballot. The highest priced three- year-old- was Sennings Park, purchas- ed by Lawrence Waterbury for $25,000 Famous Spanish Novelist In America at private sale, dispersal of his stud at Saratoga when nineteen mares fetched a total'of $136,300, an average of $7,174. HARNESS NOTES' Atlanta may not be a_ficmber of the grand circiit next season.’ The. long shipment from Lexington for one week’s racing does not seem to appeal to the owners and trainers, and while some of the performances have been brilliant the fields have been small. Birmingham, Jacksonville and Macon are possible successors of Atlanta. The National Trotting . Association will test the New York law which makes ringing an offense against the state by prosecuting Georgs Richards, the driver of Peter Scoop'em, alias Little Prince, 2:01 1-4. Richards was recently arrested at Watertown after the masquerader had won a face at Malone in 2:11 1-4, 2:11 1-4, 2:10-1-2. Among the trotters recently shipped to England by George Norton were Morris Bingen, 2:12; Davie Delmar, 2:12 1-4; Parion, 2:16 1-2; Fancy Halj 2:19 1-4 and the Raider, credited with a trial in 2:06 3-4. The pacers includ- ed Ardelle, 2:08 1-4; Junglewood, 2:11 3-4, and Charley Hayt, Jr., 2:14 1-2. Julius Hoybye, of Kaarstrup, Den- mark, recently purchased for export Jessie Benyon, 2:12 1-2, and seven other well bred trotters at Walnut Hall Farm, in Kentucky. CoE oo Sl DID FRANCE PUT ONE OVER ON UNITED STATES? How France drove a bargain with the United States which netted it a profit amounting to more than a billion dollars, and how this profitable trans- action helped to keep up the cost of living in the United States, is contain- ed in the report which the committee on expenditures in the war department makes to congress. ¢ The report also shows it to have been the policy of Newton D. Baker, secre- tary of war, to avoid disturbing market conditions in America by selling sur- plus food supplies abroad. The present shortage in sugar receives an exempyi- fieation in its report, which points out that among the war supplies turned over to the French for a low figure were 22,000,000 pounds of sugar. For the suppligs sold the French the United States received $400,000,000. They were valued at $1,750,000.000. The French also insisted upon including in this transaction the docks, railways and equipment built by the A. E. F. in IFrance, valued at $180,000,000, making the value of what they obtained some- thing more than $2,000.000,000, for which .they paid $400,000,000. These facts are found in the minutes of the liquidation commission, of which Judge Edwin B. Parker of Houston, Tex., an appointee of Colonel House, was chairman. These minutes show that the secretary of war expressed the opinion that no property, or materials not needed by the army for consump- tion in the United States should be re- turned to the United States. and that, in no event, should any clothine, food, supplies or engineering enuinment he returned, but that all such commodi- ties, as the same became surplus, should be disposed of by the commis- sion in Enrope te the best advantage, Among the supnnlies that were so dis- posed of were 22,000,000 pounds of su- WILLIAM S.HART i, Wagon Tracks!

In money values the articles disposed of amounted to $259.000,000 of food, $.23,000,000 of clothing, $310.000,000 of automobiles and $352,000,000 of hospital supplies.

The report also shows that in addi- tion to the sale of all these foodstuffs and other articles in France, the secre- tary of war informed Judse Parker and the liquidation commission there was in the United States a huge amount of | foodstuffs, and named C. W. Hare as director of sales to dispose of them in Europe. This supply consisted of 38,- 536,000 pounds of bacon, 39,000,000 | pounds of roast beef, 36 000,000 pounds of corned beef, 20.000.000 pounds of corned beef hash, 39,000,000 pounds of baked beans, 42,000,000 cans of toma- toes, 42,000,000 cans of string beans, 38,000,000 cans of corn. 32,000,000 cans of peas, 27,000,000 pounds of sugar, 5,250,000 pounds of oleomargarine and 2,250,000 pounds of butter.
