I0YERN0RS FAVOR
'CHANGE REOPENING
FOR BOND TRADING
aMcmber of New York Com
mittee Says That Business
May Be Resumed Before
End of Week.
Tlio announcement made by the Speclnl
Committee of FIVe of tho Now York
Stock Exchange on Saturday that tho
olTer of resuming trading In bonds nt
minimum prices will be taken up, by tho
Governing Committee nt Its regular
meeting tomorrow, was supplemented to
day by the statement that the Governing
Committee favors this action and that
trading In bonds may be resumed before
the end of thin week.
One of tho leading members of the
Governing Committee Is authority for
this statement, and for the further state
ment that It Is Intended to extend tho
scope of trading cm tho floor gradually.
Next week or tho week after other depart
ments will be opehed for trading, with
tho bond dealings to be accepted as- a
guldo for restrictions In other Issues.
Members of the Governing Committee
instated today that all the banking In
terests In New York desire the resump
tion of trading on the board, and re
ports that opposition has been met In
that quarter are without foundation.
Tho reopening of tho Chicago Stock
Exchange was naturally regarded with
Intense Interest. There wero no signs
of a liquidating disposition on the Chi
cago exchange and bids were more plen
tiful than offers. The volumo of busi
ness was small and Included only a few
stocks in which there was more than
local Interest.
Sterling exchange wns strong, with
more ovldencc of operations for a specu
lative clement which Is supposed to be
buying exchange In anticipation of a de
mand for remittance against sales of
bonds for foreign account. Demand
opened at 4.83$i and cables at 4,S9'4.
iRelchsmarks went down to the low point
of S6, while Paris cables were In demand
at 6.10, showing a profit on gold ex
ports to France, but French bankers are
averse to talking about prospects of any
shipments of the metal to France.
The heavy surplus shown by the Federal
banks on Saturday has as yet had no
Influence on tho money market, and Is
fj not reflected in any increased offering.
Time money for all dates was In free
supply in New York at 5 por cent, nnd
call money loan's generally at 4i per cent.
On the New street curb bid prices aro
Copper, 47; St. Paul, 83; Great Northern
prefercd. 111; Brooklyn Itapld Transit,
821,; United States Steel 47U; United
States Steel prefercd, 1014: Baltimore
and Ohio, 6614; American Can 20-; South
ern Pacific, 82ft; Western Union, GH4l
Pennsylvania, 104tf; Central Leather, 3214,
and Union Pacific, lllli. Business on tho
curb was small bocauso of scant offer
ings, and transactions were scattered and
.mostly for small lots.
Copper metal was strong at 1214 cents.
It Is estimated that 100,000,000 pounds of
copper In all were placed on the upward
movement now In progress.

PLAN BANKS TO BOOM TRADE
Would Establish Ono Each In Central

CHICAGO. Nov. 23. A plan Is being
considered by bankers and business men
In this city and Towa to establish a
branch bunk in a thrifty city In Central
America, nnd other branch on the west
coast of South America to develop trade
relations between tho United Stntes nnd
thogo sections. The proposal developed
after the delegates returned from the
recent Mississippi A'nlloy Trade Confer
ence, at Memphis,
The delegates agreed that a bank
financed by manufacturers and business
men In the Mississippi Vnlley must pre
cedo trado extension In the Centrnl nnd
South American ropubllcs. It Is pro
posed to organize a bank with a capital
of JjOO.OOO, each of 25 firms, to subscribe
for stock up to $20,000. Tho branches aro
not to compete with New York institu
tions. WAR LOAN INVESTORS' MANY
'
Private Subscribers Expected to Tnke
Entire British Issue.
LONDON. Nov. 23. Thero was no let
up In today's rush of prlvatb Investors
to subscribe to the now 330.000,000
war loan. It Is probnblo that upon al
lotment none will be left for banltst and
Insurance companies.
"" Tho American group of securities was
strong In spots. Resumption of deal
ings in bonds on tho Now York Stock
Exchange; is being looked forward to
here.
Reported successes by General Villa
wero responsible for heaviness In Mex
ienn railway securities. A belief that
the rebellion In South Africa has been
crushed Induced a better feeling In the
dealings in Kaffirs. Russian securities
were dull.
The Bnnk of Englandwas a -light dis
counter of premoratorlum bills. Rates
for loans and bills wero easy.
BRYAN WILL NOT RESIGN
White House Cnlls Story of H1b In
tention to Quit Cabinet "Absurd."
WARHIKOTOV. Nov. 1 "Ahanril. rl-
dlculous and not worth dignifying hyV
denying it. this In effect was tho White
House characterization of a report that
Secretary of State Bryan was to resign
from the Cabinet March 4 next. Secretary
Tumulty laughed when the report was
brought to his atcntlon.
"If Secretary Bryan was about to re
tire, or contemplated such a step," he
said, "I think we would know of It. It
can be said with emphasis that there
Isn't a shadow of foundation for the
rumor."
Secretary Bryan is on his way to Wash
ington from Miami, Flo., where he
spent a few days at his winter home. All
knowledge of the secretary's plans were
disclaimed at tho state Department uy
officials. The story of his purpose to
leave the Cabinet was to tne effect that
Mr. Bryan desired to devote himself to
the rehabilitation of the Democratic
party by having it align Itself defi
nitely against the liQUor Interest. Basts
for this news of tho Secretary's Inten
tion was found In an article over Mr.
Bryan's signature In the current issue
of his weekly paper, the Commoner.

GENERAL HWANG SAYS LOAN
WILL CAUSE WAR IN CHINA
Revolutionist Counts on TJ. S. to
Maintain Peace in Far East.
"China nnd America alone enn main
tain poaco In Asia. Provisional Presi
dent Yuan Shl-kal seeks an American
loan so as to become Emperor. "Without
American assistance the dictator must
abdicate nnd tho Chlncso revolution of
1911 will become a fact. With money
from America Yuan Shl-kal wilt cause
another great uprising in China."
This Is the warning and advice of Gen
eral Hwang Using, tho "liberator o
China," and general of the revolutionary
army which brought about the overthrow
of the Manchu dynasty. Ho Is now liv
ing In seclusion at Media, with a prlcp
of $100,000 on his head.
"In speaking of peace in Asia," the
general continued, "I hope you will not
think mo presumptuous In placing China
and America side by side a strong na
tion and a weak one. But China is
strong. It needs only a stable Govern
ment, .1 rolcaso from Its dictator, to
become tho bulwark In Asia's pence. AVo
Chlneo who have come to this country
find tn you a desiro for prace and an
untlpathy to aggression, n feeling simi
lar to that of our own people."
General Hwong said Yuan Shl-kal can
get no money from the warring nations
In Europe nnd that tho tlda was turning
against him in China. Ho said the peo
ple or China appreciated America's stand
In refusing to be n party to the recent
loan.
Four ngents of Yuan Shl-kal are now in
tlflt country trying to negotiate a largo
loan to aid China's dictator In his
schemes. General Hwang said. "Europo
has boon thrown into war by a few
ambitious men," he said, "and what I
fear Is that a few ambitious men may
throw Asia Into a terrible war.

"SPECK" CAUGHT
AND PHOTOGRAPHED
AFTER LIVELY RUN
Unmistakably Identified as
the Trespasser on Flower
Beds and Gardens at
Swarthmore.
It was following; a long: chase which
sent captive nnd captors many times
around tho CO by ISO foot lot at the homo
of Professor A. T. Gny. In Swarthmore,
that rlpeck was caught and photographed
today. Ilia picture has been wanted for
the collection for a long time, as he
stands unmistakably Identified, through
footprint evidence, ns the principal ag
gressor In many cases of trespass, when
(lower beds and gardens suffered. Ills
consistent infraction of household rules
has caused him to be regarded as Incor
rigible. Speck's record as n baby Shetland is
somewhat out of the ordinary. It was
just three months ago, when the flower
beds at Swarthmore were blossoming as
fast as they could, that Specie wandered
forth from tho paddock back of the sta
ble early one morning. Later, when ho
became tangled up In a pair of lace cur
tains left ovor night on the lawn by a
leundress who believed green grass the
best of bleachers, he was extricated, for
given and returned to his natural guard
tan. But lc was not long before he was
off on another expeditionary stunt. He
engaged for several hours along lines of
original research, paralleling and criss
crossing In every direction tho carefully
cultivated flower beds of the lawn. "When
discovered he was caught and returned
to the anxious mother In the paddocl: to
bo disciplined. Madamo Shetland's ideas
regarding her son did not include his
posing as a dilettante nor as a walking
udvertlsement for a garden seedhause.
Ho understood the strength of her ob
jection when he recovered from the kick
with which she icsented his aromatic
presence.
Properly discouraged In one direction,
however, he set forth hunting trouble in
another. In a short time he had scraped
an acquaintance with most of tho chil
dren of the neighborhood. Many n. young
ster resisted the temptation to eat the
last bon-bon to bestow It on Speck, Ap
ples and cake likewise were collectod for
him; and chocolate cakes intended for tho
neighborhood sewing circle were denuded
of their toothsome covering by Speck's
juvenile friends. Thus he came under
suspicion of silently aiding and abetting
juvenile delinquency, as well as of being
a receiver of stolen goods.
Speck Is owned by Master Haywood
a ay, but it la a toss-up as to which Is
boss.

AW QTDWT MYRNftR I-
Miss Constance Kopp, An
noyed for Months, Main
tains Unrenounced Vigil at
Place Named in Letter
HACKBNSACK, N. J., Nov; 23.-3Iiaa
Klorctte Kopp and Miss Constance Kopp,
who have been terrorized for- several
months by means of Black Hand threats
and tho discharge of flrenrms at night on
tho farm near Wyc'koff. where' they live
with their mother, have received another
letter, which reads as follows:
"Madam We demand $1000 or we will
kill you. Give Monee to girl dressed In
black at the corner of Broadway and
Carroll street. Paterson, Saturday night.
If you don't pay we will fire your house.
We know your horse and wagon. Wo live
In Paterson. Ha ha! II, IC Si Co."
Miss Constance Kopp, the elder of the
two sisters, waited at the corner In Pat
erson until 9 o'clock on Saturday night,
but no girl dressed tn black approached
as though seeking $1000. Miss Kopp tnen
left for her htfme. She had a revolver
ccncealed In her muff and was ready to
use It.
Sheriff Heath, of Hackensack, and
some of his deputies patrolled the neigh
borhood of Broadway and Cart-oil street
In an automobile for an hour, closely
notching Miss Kopp and all -women
dressed In black who passed thia corner.
The Kopp family lived happily together
on the Wyckoff farm until ono day last
June when the first anqnymouo letters
