Before noon news of the surrounding of a larire part of the Austrian armies by the Italians created n little excitement In the Street, but the prompt arrival of other telegraphic news of a more conservative nature from the Austro-Itallan front had the effect of counternctlnB the earlier dis patches, although some In the financial district saw In T.loyd George's speech In Tarllamcnt n confirmation of the first dlipatch when he re marked that the Austrlans were In full retreat and he questioned whether they would be able to effect their escape, if this news of the Austrian defeat had any effect on the market It could not be segregated from the general war news, which continued to be encouraging, and which has sustained the market for some time. In a discussion on the Austrian situation yesterday a well-known Investor who keeps In close touch with the market and with the trend of events remarked that he believed the Austrlans" were glad to be de feated and were playing Into Italy's hands, on account of the Internal conditions In the dual empire. "That country." he remarked, "Is made up of a most conglomerate mass of peoples whose alms and sympathies are In the main with Italy and the Ideals she Is fighting for. and while every one expected it would go to pieces when the old Emperor Francis Joseph would die. It has been the war which held It together. The moment that ceases to hold what was expected before will happen, and to my mind the breaking up Is not far distant." Not much change Is looked for In the genertl trend of stock prices during the remainder of the week and the present firm condition Is ex pected to continue. Mercantile Marine a Legal Chinese Puzzle When speaking of the International Mercantile Marine esterday a prominent downtown banker who Is acquainted with two of the lawyers connected with the case said the much-exploited deal was all right and, If possible, will be consummated ae generally anticipated, but thee lawyers maintain that no Chinese puzzle ever presented such dlfllcultics and obstacles as the confusion which results through trying to syn chronize the laws of England bearing on the many phases of the sub ject with the laws of the Unlted States; In fact, up to the present It has been found Impossible to have them doetall, but hopes arc expressed that a way to oercomo these difficulties may jet be found. Demand for Bonds Shows Shrinkage In some of the large investment houses yesterday the statement was made that It was extremely difficult to sell bonds, the demand having been diminished very rrtntorlally during the last few days. Taking the bond list as a whole, quotations now represent a decline estimated at from 2 to 5 points on the average, as compared with the 'high quotations of the purrent calendar year. This, of course, applies to corporate bonds, as marly of the well-known and long-established municipal bonds are now quotedjmany points aboe the lower levels of a few months ago. Liberty Loan bonds eperlenced n fair degree of activity, with smal', price changes In nil three Issues. The demand for the 34s continues satisfactory, while the 4s arc being liquidated to n considerable extent by those clesiring to Invest the proceeds In Issues of a different character, I Deposit Guarantee Bill Gels Another Blow In a. discussion of the bill which was recently Introduced in Congress to guarantee deposits in national banks, and which met with severe "criticism, from so many quarters, the Guaranty Trust Company', of New Tork id Us recent letter says: "Vlfforou's assaults hae been made during the last fortnight upon the proposal to guarantee deposits In national banks by providing a fund to which all national banks would contribute. The analysis of the pro posal made by the New, York Clearing Hoiibe Association, emphasizing the tectj'that such a bdhefne would place a premium on inefficiency and Jshone$ty while handicapping successful banks, was reaffirmed by the New Ydrk Chamber of Commerce. To cap the opposition argument the FederaljRcserve Advisory Council declared Its opposition 'to the guaranty of bank; deposits In any form, believing it to be wrong In principle. In asmuch as the official teport of the Comptroller of the Currency shows the loss to depositors in failed national banks to be less than three one thousaniths of 1 per cent during the last three years, and with the Governrient offering the highest possible security to Induce the use of hoarded funds, the necessity of such legislation is not apparent.' " Steel Ctmmon Dividend Prospects Theconduct of Steel common yesterday on the quotation board was considered as supporting the well-defined rumor, which was said to have Its origin In the headquarters of the United States Steel Corporation, that the corporation could pay double the tax of last year and still hae enough remaining to show 30 per cent on Its common block, and for that reason a, reduction of the dividend would be unnecessary. There Is said to be a great deficiency in the aggiegate steel output In virtually all the plants, but Jt is being oercome very rapidly, and the efficiency which hai been developed in overcoming It has had the effect of reducing the cost and thus Increasing the profits. In some quarters this Is given as the reason for the unusual strength in all the Steel shares. If there are any In the financial district who have the most remote idea that it will be necessary for the United States Steel to reduce Its dividends on account of the Increased taxation they are not In evidence. Favorable Comment on Railroad Contract The signing of the first railroad contract between the Government and the representatives of the roads was the subject of favorable, com- merit in financial circles yesterday. Of course, this being a special con- ' tract, It does not establish any precedent as to the terms and conditions of the blanket contract to cover a majority of the railroads which is being whipped into shape at the present time, yet as one banker said, It shows a degree of fairness on the part of the railroad administration ' which augurs well for the general treatment of the roads during the ('Government control and operation. J The contract referred to was between the Kansas City, Mexico and Orient Railroad, and its liberal terms provide $500,000 net annually for 4 the road as long as It remains In Government control. This compares ijwlth a deficit for a number of years past. Since its reorganization in ,1914 It haa failed to earn ,Ks fixed charges. '" In' the meantime the representatives of the 800 short-line railroads of the country are telling the Senate Interstate Commerce Committee, In v opposition to the request of Director General McAdoo for, an extension of Mime for the relinquishment of the short llnep from Government control, that such a policy would ruin their credit, and are bringing forward com 'plaints in many Instances of how the business of certain of these roads 5 has fallen off very materially since Government control was. established. iSome of them claim a falling off of 50 per cent and several claim that .Hthey will haye to suspend operations. John Barton Payne, councilor for (the railroad administration, defended the administration's action in the matter and said the problem of tho short-line railroads Is a great one' r .

As I'took out my key to open the door they called to me. "I dldp't want to open the door until they had left, for In such an event I wouldn't know whether the horsehair had been broken by some one entering before me, and 1 didn't want to turn my flashlight on the floor and make them suspicious." "What did you do?" I asked breath lessly.

"I had been a comparatively poor man all my life, but the Consolidated paid me a very handsome salary and I had saved my money and Invested It until I had quite a nice little bank balance. This, oh the advice of Queston, I In vested In the common stock of the Con solidated, which he said would surely pay r big dividend very hoon. It hasn't paid It yet, by the way," he said with a snrug or m shoulders "It wasn't until after I'lllsbury hart Induced me to p.irt with my savings that his attitude toward me changed, and he became brusque and domineer ing. In fact, he told me plainly one day that unless my Invention was finished promptly they would have no further use fpr my services Tills remark made me suspicious, and as he and Queston w,ere the master minds of the Consoli dated, I wondered if they could be the ones, who were tampering with my workroom. Both had thoroughly trained mechanical minds I gave a report to Queston one hot day, and my report was unfortunately very sticky, so much so, In fact, that he left a splendid Imprint of his finger tips thereon. Just as easily I secured a finger print Impression from lillsbury. Suic enough! Upon comparison with those In my workroom, I found that It was none other than Plllsbury and Queston who had been trying to steal I my Invention." ' I "What did you do about It?" I asked. j "I resigned." I "Hut what did you say?'" I "I said that I didn't think t could i possibly perfect my Invention for the I you going to sell It to, the Consolidated or the Swedish people?" Neither." What?" 'No, neither. At least not In the way you thlnK The Consolidated thinKs u Is clever; that Is, Queston and lillsbury I to teach them a lesson.' "Then." 1 said with surptlse, "all this work you have been doing for the news paper you needn't have done at all? That Is all part of the scheme you are pulling off?" "Not exactly 1 d'd It because 1 need ed the money "Do you think," 1 said, with that awe that large corporations Inspire In all young folks, "that you, without any money, can beat the Consolidated with all the millions they have7" "Well," he said, "at any rate you have to admit that the Consolidated Is a little bit worried. They have been to see me twice, haven't they?" "Yes. that's so," I admitted. "And they will be coming again this week, and when they do, I'eter, I want you to be in the room " "Will they stand for that?" "A man can always have his p-lvnte secretary with hiin." "Oh, I see I am to kid them that I am your secretary Is that It?' "That's quite correct," he alrt "And now, Peter, let's just shut our eyes and dream for a little while." We shut our eyes and very drowsily he said, "It's quite an Interesting little worldIsn't It?" "Sure Is." I said with a yawn.
