Mr. Pinchot took as the subject fob his speech at the Peo- ple's Forum #Conservation and_ Equal Oppostunity.” Mr. Pinchot said: “THe Ameriean people ha evidently made up thelr Minds that our natural re- sources must be onserved. That is good, but 4t wettlés only halt the question. For whose benefit shall they be conserved— for the benefit of the many, or for the use and profit of the few?

And the price is heavy, That pricé may be the chance to save the boys'from the saloons and the corner gang, :and the girls from worse, and to make good citlzens of them instead of bad, for an appalling proportion of the tragedies of 1ife spring directly from the lack of a little money.

Thé loss in Pentisylvania reached 2% In the first half hour, Reading 2%, United Btates Steel 1, Union Pacific | 1% and Amorican Smelting-3. The spectacular rise in Rock Island com- mon stock was generally credited to a frightened short interest, since it was quickly recalled that the control of the company does not lle with the common stock and therefore any suggestions that competitive bldding by Interests seeking to control the property were not to be en- tertained under the clrcumstances. One of the directors of the Rock Island and also connectedf with the banking finterests of the road, sald of the movement: There is nothing lu the affwirs of the company to account for the advance in the price of the stock In such e violent man- ner. It apears to be a squeeze of the shorts.” This same Rock Island official sald that to the best of his know'edge neigther W. H. Moore, who .Is now in Chicago, nor Danlel G.

Rock Island rallled to 63%; but there was renewed evidence that there were large suppiles of that stock In the market and the price ran cff again. This served to tranquilize the rest of the market and prices began to recover. Southern Pacific rallied to 113% and Amalgamated Copper to 88%; Pennsylvania to 137% and other stocks in less degree, The market was quieter before the fipst hour was over and prices had ceased to fluctuate as wildly as gt first.
