Vnlues of good properties wit.-often pretty

ience of freh stimulus to outside Inlying,
llere and there securities could tie picked
out which had not received their full share
of the rlHe l.ut with n modification of
vornb.e c.md.t.ons In ot u r jailer tl el
tinue ho doing for monuis ami ibiui
years to come. The worm that can be said
Ih that the abnormal rush of orders, the
like of which was never before experienced,
has subsided, and the extreme prices which
buyers paid In thilr panic-like anxiety ate
now a thins of the- past. Demand Is tern
vorarlly nbatlng, production Is Increasing
and values must soon reach a morn ni tinii
.asls, and this may not be actomp 1 she.
without some Injury to the poorly inl peil
nnd poorly orgnnlzed concerns which o ugl t
never to have enternl the race of competl
lion. This condition Is no surprise to those
engaged In the Iron business; a reaction
has long been foreseen and. as soon as
lirlces have settled down to a lower and
tnnro reasonable basis, It Is mure than
lirobable that a new set of orders will be
received; there liclng many enterprise h. Im
provements and enlargements which hae
been postponed owing to the hlnh prices
of Iron. While the riudJtiHtlng process In
the Iron trade may Injure those unprepared,
It will result In placing that creat Imlunry
on a stronger and mnro enduring mate or
prosperity than Just now exists. I he I lilted
Htates with Its unlimited supplies of cheap
ores, lis unrivaled means of transportation
and Its uneinmled skill In the art, of manu.
fncturlng on a law H'lilo will lead the
world In Iron manufacturing; If. Indeed, it
has not already reached the pos Hon of
leader. Alnudy we are successfully plac
ing our Iron products, from pig Iron to
locomotives, to typewriters and hundreds
of other articles, In the foreign markets
hitherto controlled by Knelanil and Ger
many. Our success In these fields Is an
assured fact; the future Is simply a matter
of growth, or, to use a mjiro suitable word,
expansion. In the future the Iron Industry
will no longer be solely dependent upon tho
(homo market, nnd the periods or excessive
congeitlon which that meant will he fewer
nnd fnr between, ror tho foreign markets
will ofror an unlimited Held If properly culti
vated to American enterprise for yenrs to
come. We nre accustomed In this country
i hiikIIb nf violent depression after every
morlnil of unusual activity, and it will bo
interesting to observe as to how far these
new outlets ror our surplus win save us
from the effects of oversuniilv and reaction.
(leneral trade shows some signs, of less
activity, but not more thnn could be reason
ably expected after tho rush or the last
Blx months. In the textllo trades the pace
bus been a little too fast In some respects
and huyers finding values unsettled arc
holding ofT until their law early purchases
are disposed of- In Home lines ot groceries
there are sli:ns nf overbuvlnir. and similar
reports are heard here and there rrom other
trades. As a whole, tho business situation
Is sound nnd promising. The approach of
a presidential election acts as a deterrent
In some quarters, much more than It really
nhouhl, but theie Is every prospect ot a
renewed revival of business when the elec
tions have been discounted and values
Ibrouirht down to n morn normal level
- The Immediate future or the stock mnr
ket Is somewhat problematical. There Is
no reason Tor any Important declines. Tho
Industrials have already dropped consider
ably below top figures, whllu tint railroads
nre making such excellent returns that no
anxiety need bo manifested should they
cease overtonnlnir tho big trains ot 1MK). On
tho other hand, It would be dllllcult to force
nny pronounced bull movement iTniler pres
ent conditions. A good many operators
nttach more importance to campaign ora
tory and gold shipments thnn they deserve.
hence tnese motors may uueci pruis an
versely. Again, the summer season Is an
jiroiichlng and a period or quiet and un
certainty Is likely to prevail until the time
when the crop outlook nnd presidential
uncertainties are more settled than now
Kor the present purchases should only bo
made on good declines and profits taken on
an snarp rallies.

It was remarked that outsiders were losing

GYP HAS A REAL ADVENTURE
1'iirlm Slnrtleil li- the Striume .Story
of the Well Known Writer of
llelitK Kidnaped.
PARIS, May 13. The Parisian sensation
of tho hour Is tho alleged abduction of the
celebrated writer, "Gyp," whoso real namo
la Comtesso Martello do Mlrabcati, a
descendant of tho revolutionary Mlrabcau's
Sho was found early on Sunday morning
wandering about Pont do llorcy. Her
clothes wcro torn and her face scratched
and apparently sho did not know whero
aho was. The comtcesc told the police that
sho had been taken away In a carrlago
by three men to nn unknown chateau and
locked In a room, from which she (succeeded In
escaping, with great dllllculty. Tho pollco
bcllc-vo she Is tho victim of a hallucination,
Tho comtesso when found hy the police.
nsked whero sho was, nnd being told, re
quested that sho bo driven to tho hotiso ot
n friend, Ileforo complying with this re
quest, however, tho rcdlce. took her before
tho pollco commissary lu tho Salpetrloio
quarter, to whom she made an extraordinary
declaration. She salil:
"On Saturday evening about 0 o'clock I
was belug driven to a public meeting In
tho Huo Delsa, organized In favor ot tho
candlilaturo of Rene Lacolnte. At the corner
of that street nnd Huo Saute the carrlago
was stopped, owing to road Improvements,
and a man approached and uaked mc If I
really was 'Gyp.' On receiving an alurmatlvo
answer ho said that M. Ilarilllcr, tho new
counselor for tho Uochcfoncart quarter,
awaited me a few steps away and that he
had nn Important communication to make.
I got out of my carriage, following the man
and walking about twenty stops down the Huo
d'AlycBin. Suddenly my head was covored
with a sack. I felt myself lifted ami car
ried to a closed carriage, which drove off at
full speed.
"After a long Journey tho vehlelo stopped
nnd tho sack was removed. I was unablo
to descend. Threo men Burrounded me.
Wo wero In an open country beforo a largo
glided gntoway through which wo passed.
Wo penetrated an Immense park, reaching
tho chateau, which In my opinion must be
situated at aobtit 500 metres altitude. Tho
men did not spcik, but took mo to tho
Moor and locked mo In n room containing a
bed. As soon ns I was alone I opened tho
window and scrutinized tho country. Ro
neath tho chateau flowed a river and at
pome" distance away was a railway viaduct,
I resolved to flee. I mado a cord of tho
bed clothes nnd lot myself down Into space.
Tho cord being too short, I let myself fall
Into the niattresa, which previously I had
thrown out of tho window. I Injured my
kneo and toro my dress. I crossed the park
ns quickly as possible and wandered Into
unknown parts In tho suburbs of Paris,"
Tho prefect of pollco Immediately
opened an Inquiry on receiving the com
mtrsalra's report, Sho gnvo an npproxlmato
description of tho three men, but slnco her
first statement sho has told a varying story
nnd this leadslbo authorities to bellevo sho
Is under a delusion. Moreover, the cabman
who U said to have driven her to tho Huo
d'AlyosIa cannot bo found and no carrlago
iv as Been to stop.

CATTLK As usual on the Inst day of tho
week there were no cattle hero to speak
of and 110110 wanted. However, tho few
loads In the yards i-old nt nominally steady
prices. It was practically n holiday In the
yards. , .
Tho receipts of cattle this week have
been the largest for any week so far this
month. At the same time the market has
been In remarkably good condition. Pack
ers havo seemingly wanted tho cattle and
they havo been nctlvo buyers every day.
Tho result Is that In spite of the unusually
In ran ri.cf.lnlM the market has had an HP-
ward tendency and for the week It Is safe
to say that values on beer steers nre Tuny
Ifl'rMRc higher uml In extreme cases 15(ij20o
higher. Tho Improvement has been tho
most marked on the Imndy weight or light
cattle, or gocd quality, while bljr heavy
cattle, for tho reason that they havo been
In larger supply, have shown tho least
gain.
Cows and heifers hnve been good sellers
all the week and tho market has been high
enough to suit uny one on every day of
the week. The supply on most days hns
been modernte, so that with tho domnnd
largo tho trade has been active practically
all tho week, and on most days everything
In the butchers' stock lino has been sold
and weighed up ut tin early hour.
Stockers and feeders have been In fair
demand, and as the receipts have been
small tho market has been In good shnno
from start to finish, that Is, In good shapo
for tho sellers. The prices paid havo been
strong ns compared to tho way other kinds
or cattle are selling. Stock heifers, which
were selling extremely high, uro not bring
lug finite so much money as they were, but
they aro bringing enough.
HOGS There was a good, active hog mar
ket at this point today, all tho offerings
changing hands at nn early hour. Trndo
started out a trifle easier in tone than
yesterday's market, but toward the ond,
under tho lnllucnco of n good demand,
prices firmed up nnd closed strong. Tho
general quality of tho hogs received to
day was not as good as yesterday, nnrt
taking that fact Into consideration, today's
market was about steady. There was
nothing at all fancy on tho market, so that
today's top Is 10c lower than yesterday's
hlch nrlce. Tho long string sold at $5.15.
with n few light loads going below that
figure. 1110 choicer ana nenvier nogs
brought JS.H'i or better.
Tho hoir market has been In excentlonnlly
good shape at this point all tho week. Tho
general tendency or prices nan oeen uown
ward, the week closing about 7c lower than
tho previous week, but when comparisons
1110 mado with other murkets It Is seen
that prices hero havo been the best of any
plnco on the river. Not only that, but
this market has been so close to Chicago
that shipments have come from Iowa towns
111 largo numoera. Jiie nemaiiu, nowevcr,
hn.i been sufficient to hnndlo tho receipts in
good shapo and trading on most days was
very active. The week started out with
tho market nearly steady, tho average
price being lc under Saturday, but on
Tuesday buyers took ofT 11c. On Wednes
day prices began to recover and have been
gradually advanced until tho close of the
week when nearly halt of tho loss was
mado up.
H1H0HP Tltcro wcro no fresh receipts or
either sheep or lambs nnd nothing to make
n test or the mnrket today,
Tho market this week has been In pretty
good shape, and whlln tho receipts havo
been as largo as could bo expected nt this
season, there has also been u. liberal de
mand, so that tho market on most days has
been fairly nctlvo and lu a good, healthy
condition. Sheep nro strong to lOo higher
thnn a week ago and !amb3 about lotf'JOo
higher than a week ago.

HAVANA, May 13. Reeves nnd Reynolds,
tho auditors of the postal department who
havo been under surveillance, havo not been
sent to Jail, but arc detained In their own
rooms under the charge of n detective. They
will not bo allowed to communicate further
with any of tho employes of tho postofflco
until nftcr tho Investigation of the postal
frauds has been completed.
Slnco their susptnslon Reeves and Rey
nolds have been communicating freely with
various suspected men nnd tho division felt
that It would be better to prevent any fur
ther communication of this kind.
Carrydon Rich was tho man who confessed
to a knowledge of many of the transactions
which, In the oplnon of lawyers, Implicate
others bcsldis Neely. Rich was Neely's
partner In a number of business enterprises
In Cuba and nlbo holds power of attorney
for him.
It was through Rich that $5,000 of now
Issuo sttmps wero recovered nnd he hns not
been arrested on account of tho valuable as-
slstnnco ho Is now giving In unravelling tho
plot. Further ho has ngreed to glvo evi
dence when Neely Is arrested.
Tho amount of the defalcation so far ns
discovered nt present Is $30,000 during tbo
year 1900 and $C9,000 during 1899. Of this
amount $5,000 has been recovered, $2,000 de
posited in a bank hero In Neely's name has
been attached and $0,500 ho had In his pos
session when arrested.
A brickyard and n cocoa grove, tho valtio
of which Is undecided, tho property of
Neely, have been attached. Neely's bond
with tho Fidelity Deposit company amounts
to $30,000, nnd tho estimated bonds of oth
ers against whom evidence Is accumulating
will amount to from $15,000 to $20,000. The
probability Is that the government will lose
$30,000 or more.
It Is reported that, the local postofflco Is
short somo thousands 'of dollars.
NEW YORK. May 13. John D. Ltndray,
counsel for Neely In tho Cuban postofllcc
matter, said today Neely was willing to go
to Cuba If Governor Wood desired. How
ever, ho admitted that both Neely and his
counsel preferred to havo tho caso tried
hero, whero It would como beforo tho fed
eral courts of tho southern district of New
York.
"Everybody knows tho condition of the
courts In Cuba," explained Lindsay.
MUNCIB, Ind., May 13. 0. P. W. Neely
was called upon today at 'the homo of his
sister and the rciortcd confession of Hlch
was read to him. Mr. Noely refused abso
lutely to cnako a statement .further than to
say that there must be a mistake. Rich -was
one of Munclc's leading young business
men, a son-in-law of Joseph A. Goddard,
wholesale grocer, and for several years was
a traveling salesman and also waB seJrctary
of tho Indiana Traveling Men's Protective
association. Rich has always been nn In
timate friend of Neely's and ho secured his
appointment In the Cuban postal department
through Neely. They wero extensively as
sociated together in business enterprlsca.

NCW YORK, May 13. New gold fields
rivaling In richness thu deposits of Capo
Nome will bo opened to American miners
if the expectations of tho members of tho
Russian expedition, which arrived Inst night
on tho Campanln, on Its way to North
eastern Siberia, aro fulfilled.
Vladlmar Wonlarlarsky, n colonel of tho
Russian Imperial guard, obtained tho con
cession of tho vast Siberian tract which
tho expedition Is to examine. There were
moro than forty applicants for tho grant,
which had been sought with eagerness since
tho discovery of gold on the American side.
Hy means of court lullticnce, hacked by
prcFsuro from other sources, Colonel Won
larlarsky carried off the prlzo. Ho formed
a company In Russia, which planned tho
present expedition, headed by A. Ilogdano-
vltch, a Russian engineer. It Is understood
that n subsidiary company has been formed
In Knglnnd, but secrecy Is maintained In
regard to tho English and American Inter
ests. Miners who havo visited tho Siberian
coast by stealth havo reported that It is
practically the same as tho Nome coast,
consisting of a strip of beach, behind which
lies a tundra or belt of gold-bearing sand,
which has been thrown up by the action
or tho waves and frozen.
Many companies bnvo been rormed to
work dredges nnd pumps off the coast of
Cape Nome In order to draw up the sand
where It reaches the beach. It Is expected
that the operation of thoso appliances will
bo prevented by tho beach miners and thnt
apparatus In which largo capital has been
Invested will bo Idle unless new fields nre
opened to It. If the expedition to Siberia
finds what Is expects the company will In
vite the pumps and dredges to crosn to tho
Siberian short nnd operate these on pay
ment of a royalty.
Hoolcy, tho English promoter, has nothing
to do with the plan. Oeorgo D. Roberts,
who Is n veteran California miner, will
bo a member of the exploring party. Rob
