They are material ■ to the financial welfare of the ancient ' city, spending in the neighborhood of $900,000 for goods of every kind. Da ■ mascus is busy, and the people are in j dustrious.

With such ex ceptions as Missouri Pacific, Lehigh i Valley and '"Soo" all of which rose J a point or more, guius were mostly frae j tional. Bethlehem Steel declined a : point probably in the belief that the directors will not. declare a dividend 'on the stock at to-day's meeting. It j soon made partial recovery. As usual I : of late a large part of the dealings was ! , in the specialties, with a good demand j 1 for coppers. Following its early low, tjie advance ! j( was resumed on about the largest vale: I! witnessed since the renewal of business, t | Transactions in the first hour aggregat- ! !ed 140.000 shares and embrace! the j * greatest variety of issues. The siguifi-1 cant feature, however, was that favor-1 ites asserted their former leadership. United States Steel changed hands in blocks of 1,000 to 1,700 shares, gain ' ing a point. Extraordinary ease of money as seen in the steady reduction \ of emergency currency, was perhaps the I most potent factor in the movement. | B6nds were strong. Philadelphia Produce Market !

MARINE FOOTBALL WITH "DOC" AS ' OOC AMD A 3LEE*>mG SQL DlGfs_ FRIEND A letter from one of the American marines stationed at Pearl Harbor, Hawaiian Territory, tells timv the marines are very proud of their football team. With only a hnndrrd men to pick a team from they have made a good showing in tbe games with the army post near by, which numbers 1,400 en. listed men. The football team, with becoming modesty, expends its pride on Doc, a white bulldog. Doc, however, is not allowed on the field except at prac tice. It is feared iie might imagine he is a quarter back arid make a foul tacki# if he saw any of his friends being jumped on by a stranger. The marine slum bering in the accompanying picture had no tdea that he was being pboto. emnhed. but Hoc was ••wise," as may he readily seen. ■ H- " ■ ■■■ 1,476 MARINE DISASTERS / 5,295 Persons Involved in Calamities to Vessels in U. S. Waters Bii Associated Press. Washington, Jan. 19. —There were 1,476 disusters on the waters of the United States during the lust fiscal year in which the life-saving service worked alone, according to its report to-day to Congress. The v> .<cls involved carried 5,295 persons and property was valued at $4,042,985. In 323 other instances the service worked in conjunction with the revenue cutter service or other ageucies and took part in the rescue of 2,691 persons from vessels valued at $10,641,655. The year's record, the report de clares, was made "in the face of an un fortunate situation, a deteriorated life saving service.'' It again urges upon Congress the need for legislation to provide for retirement pay for life savers. A Declining Art "Don't you want your boy. Josh, to be a good speller?" asked the school teacher.
