Are You Aware
that, if you are married and
have no children and do not
make a Will, after certain
allowances to your wife she
will receive only one-half of
your Estate, while the. rest
perhaps goes to a very dis
tant relative?
If you leave a Wilt you
make sure that the wife will
receive what you wish, not
what th law would give her.
We cordially invite you to
consult our officials freely,
without expense, and to con
sider the advantages of ap
pointing this Company your
Executor and Trustee. Upon
request our representative
will call upon you.

Supplementing vr-tcrdav's sensn-1
tioiiiil perfonnniice, the (Jenernl As
phnll shares maile n spectacular open
ing this mnriiing. Within n sliort time
after tlie Initial denllngs the commoti
stock soared jicarly 0!) on top of jester
day s spirited soiling to 110. while the
preferred nt the same time leaped $7.ii0
to 1i2. Subsequent moderate reaction
carried the common stock to Ili'i'". nnd
tlie pielerred to 170.
N'ewr before In tlie annals of the
local exchange has there been such n
fruutic bidding for nny Individual stock.
I he urgency of the demand, unless
surface signs are misleading. Indlcntcs
some one or sonic interests hnve found
themselves in a decidedly uncomfort
able position.
There is no use of hashing words,
and to come right down to the bottom
fncts of the case the sensational per
formance of the Asphalt stocks in the
last three days have all the earmarks
and linger prints of pome one or some
inreresis being ".short" or the stock
who hail no business to be caught in
such n position.
Tills may be nn erroneous interpre
tation nf (lie extravagant movement in
the slock, but based upon competent
rending of the tape by jea'rs of experi
ence this would seem to lie the renl
diagnosis of tUo setnipnnlck.v mental
condition of those who apparently arc
eager to get the stock regardless of
maiket quotation.
If the oil properties nf the company
in Venezuela anil other points in ('ini
tial and South America weie nltiril
tenfold, such aluation would not con
sistently warrant the current ettrnva
gant high prices commanded each suc
ceeding daj by these shares.
The theorj of nn untenable shoit in
terest is paitly continued in the relu
liioly small trnnsnclions attending the
NEW YORK COFFEE MARKET
New Yorli. Sept. 25. Tlie market
for coffee futures opened irregular. De-
comber was 10 points lower; other )
months liiichnngcd to nn advance of fi '
points. Trading on the call was quiet j
and transactions confined to Match nnd i
May. I
While Santos futures cables show an
irregular market tlieie, witli the de-;
cliuo'roprescnting them showing a loss
of jeterdaj's gains, there does not tip-,
pear to be the same desitc to sell ibis'
market as was in evidence a few dajs'
ago.
Th! may be attributed in pait to ic- ,
ports of a better inquiiy for coffee in
the local spot market and to a belief,
that inteiior buyers nie likely to comul
in at anv moment, particularly if the
local contract maiket becomes more set
tled. December nfter the call sold to 1.1,25,
or 7 points above the previous close
rapid elevation of Hie Asphelt stockn
tbls week. Tills morning, in tlie- eail.V
sensational bulge, less than 1000 share
of the coiiitnon changed bntidsi not
withstanding nn elevation in the market
price of $11 n share. In tlie preferred
11 little mote thnn 500 shiircs changed
hands at nn advance of S7.no.
U these deduction" are correct there
Is no measurement ot the extent the
ilse may leacli. The boundaries are
unlliniteil, which fact lias been demon
stinted In all corners. On the other
hnnd, there is this lurking danger at
tending such n debauch, nnd which it
would be well for all plnying 'with the
stock to keep coiistniitlyiii mind. In
variably a compiomise is reached be
tween ilic contesting tinrtfes, by which,
through the agency of u'piivatc settle
ment the short Inteiest is eliminated.
Jus! one tiling happens, ivlricli is much
tlie same as the 'result of pricking a
balloon with a pin.
The movement stirred 'up fresh In-
lerest In Klec trie Storage ltattcry. That
stock, after lagging for some dnjs. also
siiddi'iil.i sprang into limelight and was
alo urgeutlv wanted. This unusual
demand resulted in a quick advance nt
S." to 112.
