In the local traction group , but Its con

A drop of 2 points In Denver & Rio Gram
preferred was unexplained any new
of the day. With the exception of thes
special movements tbo market continue
near the level of stagnation.
Several Incidents of the day point to tl
financial outlook as the true ground (
hesitation In the speculative world. Spc.
ulators do not forgot that It was the Ii
dustrlal nnd commercial activity of tl
country which encroached on the fun.
they had embarked In speculation In D <

the present ease of money , which. It I
feared , may prove ephemeral and lllusor ;
Offerings ot mercantile paper at preset1
arc light , but this 13 explained as bcln
dro to the employment by largo morcaiitll
houses of the year's profits as workln
capital. The sharp upward course of stci
ling exchange today gives point to the ai
prehension that gold will again go out t
help supply England's need for war e >
pondltures. An olllclal of the Imperil
Bank of Germany quoted today attribute
the ease In the Gorman market to an ni
tlflclal maneuver mu.lc to prepare the mat
ket for municipal loans and the same at
tbority asserts that Russia In t. . ) raise
loan. The future contlnfttncles In th
money market thus foreshadowed ma
help to explain the persistent Indlfferenc
of speculators to the present nbumlanc
of funds.

Commercial Advertiser's London llnancls
cablegram :
The markets here opened Very flat to
day on the news ot the retreat of Genera
Buller acres tbo Tugela , Dealers wer
'
afraid to buy anything , but specu'latio
lias been so attenuated recently that com
para lively few sales resulted from th
ftook and the Initial decline was followe
by a slow , steady recovery from the noin
Inal prices first given out. There was lit
tic or no buying on the way up. Hnles
Investors became panic-stricken It woul <
seem that the markets arc merely nara
lyzed. A late rumor on the board had 1
that the war olllce contlrmed the reports o
the relief of MafeklngConsols ruled
point down to 99 % .
Americans had the worst opening , bul th
free support from New York brought abou
a KUbstfintlal rally. 3he ? bank lost 15.00
gold to India and received 9,000 from Aus
tralla. Money was still stagnant. Bill
were easy , a good many American bill
being In the market , London papers be
ing withheld. Foreign rates were as fol
lows : Paris check , 25.17 ; Berlin , 20.15.

CATTLE Arrivals of cattle were small
today , while ' .he demand was quite active ,
so that the market as a whclo was In good
shape and practically everything In the
yards was sold and weighed up at an carlj
hour.
Only about a. dozen loads of cornfe.
etoera were reported on sale nnd none o
them very goad , the most of them on the
trashy order. Packers were evidently In
need of calxle and the market was fullj
steady and from that to a little stronger
In spots. Chicago did not report any 1m
provement in the market , so that an >
strength that may have been developed a
tills point was duo entirely to the gooc
local demand and moderate receipts.
There was quite a sprinkling of cows and
heifers In the yards , not far from twenty
five loads oelng reported on sale. The
market on that kind of cattle was also Ii
good shape. Buyers evidently wanted nl
that there were hero and they were not
long In clearing the pens , paying prices
that wore steady to a little stronger Ii
spol * . Bulls were In very fair demand nt
Rood , ateady prices. Veal calves were
acarce and the market steady , the best
brlntfng $7.00.
Stockers and feeders were In moderate
supply and fair demand for the llrst da >
of the -week. The market could safely be
quoted ae steady. Speculators sold the most
of their ottUlo Saturday , so 'that ' compara
tively few were carried over , and the yards
In consequence are pretty well cleared up
and the market In a good , healthy condi
tion. Representative Bales :

WASHINGTON , Jan. 20. After almost
week's respite the Senate committee ) on
privileges and flections today resumed Its
j investigation of the charges filed against
j Hon. W. A. Clnrk of Montana In connection
i with his election to the United States senate.
1 At the beginning 6f tddny's session Mr.
Campbell , counsel for the protestantu , m do
.n . brief statement exonerating Hon. J. K.
Toole from any.unfair participation In thn
cloetlon of Clnrk. In making the statement
Mr. Cnmpbcll salt ] tlmt the prosecution Iinil
been Informed before the witnesses wern
1 called that Toolo hnd secured money as a
consideration for his withdrawing from the
senatorial rnco In Clark's Interest nnd on this
account Toole's bank account had bcon Rene
Into In making the Investigation.
Since the beginning of thin proceeding thn
prosecution had become convinced that tblt
accusation was without foundation and was
K.itlKflcd that Toolo hnd not bcon In ntty wnj
dishonorably connection with Clark In tin
election. Honcc Campbell expressed the de
sire that any reference to Toolo should be
expunged from the record of the commlttee'n
proceedings. Mr. Faulkner , for the defense ,
concurred In this wish. '
The llrst witness of the day was Ed V.
Moore , fusion representative In the Montana
legislature from Meagher county , and at
present engaged as a dairyman and owner
of a cold storage plant at Dozcmnn. Mr.
Cnmpbcll , In his questlono , sought to brlnn
out the fact that Mr. Moore had suddenly
como Into considerable money since the ad
journment of the legislature.
Moore admitted thnt he hnd deposited con
siderable money at the bank since adjourn
ment , but he snld ho had received $2,600
from his partner , J. P. Rhoadua , and over
$3,000 from his brother. He had sold thn
latter a half Interest In a ranch for $7,000
and thin money hnd been In part payment
of this obligation. He had also borrowed
money at the First National bank at Uoze-
mnn.
mnn.Mr.
Mr. Moore stntcd that he had not voted for
Mr. Clnrk until the eleventh or twelfth
bnllot , having previously voted for Mr. Hartman -
man for senator. He said In reply to Mr.
Faulkner thnt ho hnd received no offer of
pay for his vote for Mr. Clark and no con
sideration was given him for that vote. As
between Clark and Daly , the people ol
Mcaghcr county were frlnndly to Clark.
George L. Ramsey , cashier of the Union
Bank nnd Trust company of Helena , the
next witness , produced a memorandum oJ
$1,000 bills paid out by the- bank , Begin
ning with January 10 , 1S99. The record
showed that the bank hnd hnd demands for
large bills from the Stnte Savings bank ol
Hutte , sending the Inutttutlon $30,000 on
the 7th and another $30,000 on the 13th ol
that month In thc o bills. Most of the
large bills were received from other banks ,
but occasionally one or two were deposited
at a time by Individuals. For the month
of March sixty-seven $1,000 , bllls passed
through the bank ; for the month of Febru
ary seven nnd for January twelve. For other
months tbo nverage wns about the same an
for January and February , but not so large
as for March , when the demands of tha
Butte banks for the large bills were met.
Among the Individual depositors of large
bills were Masslua Dullard , n Helena law
yer ; Deputy County Clerk Uerry , J. B. Cullen -
lon and J. II. Qelger , who successfully con
tested the seat of Whlteslde as a state sen
ator. In the latter case the bill was of the
denomination of $500. Mr. Bullnrd had not
unly deposited a $1,000 bill on February 7 ,
but had received $3,000 In thousand-dollar
bills on the 2d of that month.
In response to questions Ramsey stated
that In May last Gclger had deposited a
certificate of deposit from the bank for
f200 In exchange for which ho bad given
Uelger a certificate for $1,500 and a draft
ror $1,000. It wns at the same time that
Mr. Oelger had brought a $500 bill into the
jank which he had had changed. One of thg
parties to whom the bank had paid out
: argo bills was n Mr. Wellcome , who , Ram
sey explained , was not the J. I ) . Wellcoma
imminent In this case.
D. O. Becker , clerk of the Helena hotel ,
was Intorrogatcd by Senator Chandler aj
o a $500 bill In the possession of the com-
nlttco. This born certain Identification
narks , Including "D. 0. II. , " the Initials ol
: he witness. Ho was asked If ho had Tvrlt-
cn these marks and said ho had not and
tnew nothing about the bill. Ho suggested
hat ho might have deposited It and the
) ank added the marks as a means of telling
'rom ' whom It was received. The hearlnn
