RESTORATION OF NORMAL
CONDITIONS IN TRADING
General Else in Prices Which Marked
Resumption of Operations Last Sat
urday Continued To-day, Though
Fewer Issues Were "Traded in
By Associated Press.
New York, Dee. 14.—Business on the
: Stock Exchange to-day opened with ev- j
| ery outward indication of a restoration
of normal conditions. The general rise ;
, in prices which marked the resumption
' of operations last Saturday was contin
' ued, though fewer issues were traded in •
1 during the first half hour. During that
period trading was limited to the copper
I group, which rose 1 to 2% points. !
i Heading, Lehigh Valley, Eric and St. :
| Paul also materially extended last Sat- :
i urday's gains. Atchison and I'eunsyl-
I vania were among the few prominent
I issues to show hesitation. The move
ment pointed to an accumulation of
week-end buying orders, together with
a further covering of short contracts.
Transactions in the first hour were
forty per cent, in exo.ess of that period
last Saturday. Although realizing for
profits was general, it failed to cuieek
the further advance. Copper continued
to climb, their movement beinig at
| tribute*! to a combination of better
trade conditions relative cheapness and
speculative possibilities. In the rail
way group Pennsylvania recovered. At
the clearing house U. S. Steel sold at
50 5-S, 1 1-4 under July 30 closing,
with Union Pacific at 1I S 1-4, an ad-1
j vance of 1 1-4. Canadian Pacific was J
j 155 1-2 bid, offered at 158. Bonds
I were firm.

MEN CROWD FRONT
IN THE AFTERNOON
, Dr. Stough Depicts the Dancing of
Sampson In Humiliation and Makos
His Point So Clear That Not a
Smile Is Evoked
"I know I am talking to courageous
people," Dr. Stough told Ms audioneos
at the tabernacle yesterday, "because
nil the cowards got cold feet and stayed
at home on account of the snow."
Morning, afternoon and evening, thou
sands and thousands of men, women
| and children went in and out of tho
j tabernacle. Although the crowds were
| not as large as on previous Sundays
| when the weather was fair, the atten
dance was not disappointing to members
iof the Stough party. The enthusiasm
| of the meetings was not below the av
erage.
The most spectacular scene that has
yet taken place in the tabernacle, oc
curred at the close of the men's after
noon meeting. Because there are no
: women or children in the throng, the
I revivalist can have the trail hitters at
, t.hcso meetings crowd forward and
stand in disorder at the front of the
platform, packed closely together. Yes
; terday when hundreds were standing
thus, lie pulled to his side on tho plat
form two former bartenders who had
; been converted, and then called for "all
' men who have been tending bar 011 tho
1 other side of the counter," to crowd
up on the platform behind them.
At once there was a scramble for the
platform and half a hundred "booze
bolsters" packed the space, back to
and behind the piano and overflowing
into the press box. Prayers and sing
ing followed.
Dancing of Sampson Depicted
Dr. Stough's afternoon sermon, on
"Chaining the Giant," had its basis
on the story of Sampson, 110 depicted
the former strong man working th«
trend mill for his enemies, humiliated
and despised. Then he danced, as
Sampson was forced to do, "to make
hjiort'' for his tormentors. There was
not a smile, however, as tho evange
list hopped on one foot and then the
other, for tho picture of tho strong
man's disgrace was too forceful to be
amusing.
Dr. Stough's Saturday night sermon
on "How 1 .May Know I Am Convert
ed" was preached to a large audience,
despite tho lure of the stores with their
attractive holiday goods. Yeßterday
morning the sermon was on "Stubble
or Silver," and in the evening on the
theme, " Oan a Man Serve Christ Se
cretly f"
Wayward Son Is Cared for
At. the evening service the trail-hit
ters included a city policeman with his
wife, a Sunday school superintendent
and the driver of a brewery wagon.
There was also a young man who said
ho was flhe son of a minister, had run
away from home some time ago ami
did not know where his parents might
now be. He was taken in cliarge tojy the
ministers present, who promise to find
his father and return him to his home.
At the women's meeting in the aft
ernoon at the Kidge Avenue Meblnodist
church, Miss Faliner preached ou "The
Night Scene.'' The music of the serv
ice was in charge of Miss Saxman and
Mrs. D. L. Spooner, wife of the taber
nacle musical director.
Miss Kgglestou spoke to hundreds of
boys and girls at the Fifth Street
Methodist church 011 "Jesus the Light
of the World," illustrated by pan
tomimes presented by girls clothed in
white, holding, lighted candles.

MILITARY PREPAREDNESS
More Submarines Are Desired But the
Number of Battleships Should
Not Be Sacrificed
By Associated Press.
Washington, Dec. 14.—Military pre
paredness of the country was up for dis
cussion again to-day before the House
-Naval Affairs Committee, with Secre
tary Daniels on hand ready to continue
| his testimony. Commander Stirling, of
the Atlantic submarine flotilla, also was
to testify regarding the condition of
submarine boats of the navy. Testi
mony of these two witnesses was ex
pected to conclude the public sessions of
5 the committee preliminary to holding
■ executive sessions when the naval ap
• pfopriation bill is to be finally passed
upon before being reiported 'to the
1 ' House.
1 Tesimonv so far has been to the ef
' feet that, while an increase of submia
' rines was desirable, the number of bat
tleships should not foe sacrificed on that
■ account; that thero is a present short
" age of officers and men to man all
ships of war value; that it has been
- difficult to get satisfactory aeroplanes,
in which the United States is behind
' Europe; that the Mexican expedition
- brought out clearly the lack of medical
supplies and the need of two new hos
pital ships; that for a full medical com
t plement the navy is short about 65
: medical officers, not including ships
- projected, building or not in full coin
i mission, and there arc numerous other
needs of t.h6 navy. At the same time
! Secretary Daniels declares the navy is
' to-day in good condition and liis ad
mirals say that, ship for ship, it Is
equal to any navy in the world.
The need of additional funds with
which to meet the social obligations
of the superintendent of the Naval
Academy is brought out in the executive
honrings. Captain William F. Fullani,
confiding to the Naval Committee that
"I would not go to the Naval Acade
my again as superintendent under theso'
circumstances," of lack of sufficient
funds for 'hospitalities titat could not be
escape-1, suggested that Annapolis is
very near Washington. This, he said,
entails social responsibilities, besides
the real obligation to entertain tho mid
shipmen, which has a tremendous in
fluence for good upon them. He advo
cated his successors have a contingent
fvnd of |2,50C a year for this purpose,
the Military Academy at West Point
having $3,000.
As to "Sights" «
A teacher of English criticised an es
say written by a girl pupil in which
the girl used tho word "eyesight."
"What other kind of sight conld
there be except 'eyesightf " asked the
' teacher.
j Rising to the challenge, the pupil
I replied, "Well, there are foresight and
hindsight.''—lndianapolis News.
