L. Sanford. This is the only di- rect factory branch maintained by the Dort Company, the entire output of which is handled through twenty- five main distribution points. For the New York territory, however, it was found that a direct factory branch was the most satisfactory way handling the business, so the opening of the branch, marking from long ‘establishea Dort policy, was a notable occasion for the entire organization and all the dealers in a departure ‘This was celebrated by a luncheon at the Hotel Astor, Thursday, which at 100 Dort men were pres- a atin eae, « pear Volume at operator eee falas ole 8 You a ey Things only half good you soon tire of.

While the stock market has fur- nished many mysteries this year, none has been more puzzling than Crucible Steel. Not only does it make @ new high record each succeeding day, but the extent of its price up-| swing is nothing short of startling. Only a week ago the stock was sell- ing below 140. In spite of the threat- ening fabor outlook at that,time, and while the rest of the stock market was subjected to considerable profit- taking and liquidation, Crucible tinued to be persistently accumu- lated. . Yesterday the stock sold as low as 186 1-2, but closed the day with a net gain of 13 points.

A fact that gives ¢ignificance to the announcement is that Mr. Bow- man is one of New York's first au- tomobile distributers, his ‘company having been distributing cars con- tinuously on Broadway eince 1902. His deciding on the Kissel is an assurance to the people of New York City and New York State that Mr. Bowman threw his lot in with this line only after being assured and doubly satisfied of its excellence. “There are three. models of open jobs which we hope to display next week,” said Mr. Bowman, “The four- passenger tourster in Kiewel blue and the geven-passenger touring in gun- and wrought with the same d technique that characterize ens were my wife's pets. Many of them she had named, She could not have their necks wrung. She plead- ed with the mrultitude—and her Italian is very good. The people were moved. They relented. The chickens wore saved. In spite of this experience with temperamental | sovietism, Caruso Plans to sail on Sept. 15 for Mexico City, which he admits is likely to be worse than hungry Italy. “But I have contracts,” he said, “and although I shall earn only $84,000 by singing, it would cost me perhaps $200,000 in damage guits if I should break my agreements, I am assured by President Carranza that there will be no trouble, and I am planning to take the chance, Of course, if things get worse ‘between now and the 15th I may not go. And if I do go I shall go alone. My wife and my son will remain in New York. “I fear that if I were kidnapped by ‘bandits my Government would not spend $15,000 to ransom me as yours did for the aviators.” MRS, CARUSO'S FATHER NOT YET RECONCILED. ‘The first thing Mrs. Caruso asked the reporters was whether her par- ents, Mr. and Mrs, Park Benjamin, this morning was 180 1-4, and at the trading jt sold as high as 183 12, a gain of 8 1-4 points over last night’ close and a gain of 19 points ove yesterday's low.
