—The most noteworthy feature at
the dull opening of to-day's stock
market was the fractional gain in

braced the other strong and active
shares at gains of large fractions to

regular.
Trading was curtailed by the
storm which interrupted private
wire communication with the Middle
West but upward progress was made
later especially in coppers and ship

advance and Corn Products and

French, who are now tn their pre

In his appeal to the House of
Commons for more men, Premier
Lloyd George declared that greater
manpower was a grave necessity and
tha more men at this juncture might
bring al.out the decisive defeat of
the German armies in the great
battle on the Somme. The gravity
of the situation was shown by the
proposal to 'nclude Ireland under
the British i'inscription act. The
premier said the cabinet would soon
introduce a home rule for Ireland
bill. Much opposition was voiced
to the Irish proposals and the
premier was mttriupted repeatedly
by Irish inem'.ors The govern
nn nt's bill however, passed the first
nading and the riebat'ng time on it
has f">en extended to next Tuesday.
