New Yprk, Feb. 18.—Rails led an- other advance of prices on the stock i exchange today, speculative issues embracing the recently reorsanized roads maging relatively greater gains than the investment division. Increasing recognition of the changes which are to come over the country’s transportation systems on their return to private operation and favorable aspects of federal legisiation constituted the impelling causes of the movement. As for investment or gilt edged rails, traders seemed suddenly to reach the belief'that they had been selling “out of line,” or far below quotations justi- fled by their intrinsic or physical values.

CARNEY Editor National Sports Syndicate, Edgewater Park in Cleveland, Ohio, | will be the scene of the 1920 Grand | American Handicap Trapshooting tournament—the blue ribbon tourna- ment of trapdom. The tournament will more than like- ly be held the week following of August 23. Cleveland intends to run a real shoot. It is the ambition of those behind the tournament to make this the greatest Grand American Handicap ever held, and these men know how well the shoot was handled in Dayton and at the South Shore Country Club. Twelve traps will be erected in Edgewater Park — twelve traps in a straight line, the first time that 12 traps were ever erected for use in the Grand American Handicag. ‘We have it on good authority that the Preliminary Handicap will be re- stored to the program this year and that the 12 traps will be used in the the | {Grand Circuit trotting races—the week | Zrellminary and Grand American ! ment as it appears on the program off Ask for our new Franco-Belgian Circular and Pamphlets: “Thrift in France” and “Economic Assets of France.” A.

The shooting will be done over the water, the same as in Chicago although the traps may be a little further back, of.the water’s edge than they were at the South Shore Club. Cleveland is working on the assump- tion that if the Grand American Handicap is a success that they will be given the handici# again in 1921 and possibly 1822. Those handling | the shoot are not working on the idea | that this is the only time Cleveland will conduct the tournament, It isn’t likely that the Cleveland people wiil bother about a Beginners’ Trap or a practice trap, or the other things that would go a long ways to- wards making trapshooting a bigger sport than it is; the only hing they are concernd in is running the tourna- On the other days 10 traps in a satisfactory manner. J It is the intention of the Cleveland management to engage high e-hool boys to pull the traps, keep score, re- feree, etc. and these boys will be taken in hand one week before the shoot and instructed in their duties daily. They will all be in uniform so that hey may be distinguished ‘from other boys onm the grounds. Cleveland was awarded the Grand American Handicap over Atlantic City, N. J. The seashore town wanted to stage the shoot the last week in Sep- | tember. This and the fact tha the committee felt that Atlantic City was too far East killed the sea shore city. How the committee arrive at the fact | that Atlantic City is too far East for | the big tournament is beyond us. Atlantic City isn't too far East to bring more than 300 shooters to the | Westy Hogans. Keeping the Grand | American Handicap in the same sec- tion all the time isn't going to benefit the rest of the country a great deal.
