NKW YORK. Oct. 22,-Today s furious
nctlvo und buoyant eperalatlon was
In ouch t up with a. shurp turn In the final
hour of trading by a (lurry In the rate for
call money, which carried It tip to 6 per
cent. This whs accented ns nn admoni
tion that tho speculation was overrunning
the nowly acquired resources of the tnonev
mnrket and very heavy selling to lenllze
profits set In. In some of the stocks most
nfTVw-tert bv the late selling tho earlier gulns
' 'm.i oiit nnd the avernsc
tevol was carried down considerably below
tno best or the day. J hp crrort or tho
bulls 10 retrieve their ground caused a
very unsettled tone, but tho closing was
on the whole easy, with the buo.wint snap
apparently taken 0.1 1 of th murket. Not
withstanding this late Bflback there wero
some very striking upward movements
of prices, especially In thr. Hti-ol group, nnd
tho largest day's business In stocks sinew
tho earlier part of the year was transacted
at n level of prices well above Jhoo of
Hsturday. Hpeoulators reveled In the re
vivifying streams of gold which are pour
ing Into the New York money mnrket from
many quarters of the world. Yesterday'a
Incoming steamers from Kurope brought
the totul receipts of the gold engaged there
for Import to over $3,000,000 and Saturday's
receipt of $4,800,000 nt San Francisco can
bn made Immediately available to tho New
York money market by telegraphic trans
fer. The balance of the total engagements
In Kuropo, which amounted to upwards of
$3.0oo.t"K.i. Is fast following on the heels of
tho shipments already received. Neither
on Haturday nor today was there a slnglw
dollar deposited nt tho sub-treasury for
transfer to tho south or west, which Is a
concluslvo demonstration of the .nt -rlor
needs for currency. Sterling exchange fell
wo'vklv back to near the go'il Import point
and the continued downward tendency of
Interest rates In London nnd Renin seemed
to offer acquiescence In tho threatened
further demands for gold from New York,
It Is Important lo note that tho weakness
of sterling exchange Is largely duo to tho
heavy buying of stocks for Iondon He
count, which amounted, according to re
liable, estimates, to 45,000 sharos. Kxchnnge
made from this source, unlike that dun to
tho cotton movement, does not involve a
corresponding drain from New York, such
as Is required to movo tho cotton crop.
London's large buying was reported to b
due. In a degree, to speculative buvlng of
calls for American stocks, which London
ha sold quite freely for some time inst
and which the current rise In prlcts forces
that market to provide Itself with. Tho
consequonce, of these various favoring fac
tors waa what tho brokers called the best
open market for stocks since 'ast spring.
Tills was taken advantage of from tho out
sldo to realize on a very large sc.iln nnd
tho professional operators became some
what uneaiy, tut they detected evidence of
Inside selling. The spurt In the call money
rate was all that was needed to precipitate
thn general selling movement. This de
velopment served ns a reminder that It
may not bn expedient to lend nil tho newly
available money resources nt once for
speculative purposes. The time money mar
ket wuh dull today, borrowers expecting
lower in (as nnd lenders holding out for
tho higher rates, but banker" looked for
considerable additional requirements for
loans to be met In the neur future.
There wan greatly Incre.vied activity In
bonds, on well us In stocks, and prices ad
vanced very generally. High grade bonds
woro not conspicuous In the dealings. Total
salos par value, $2 7O5.OO0. I. S. 3s reg ad
vaiicid per cent on the call.
The Commercial Advertiser's London
flnanclnl cablegram says: 'J he mantels

f!AT'ri.K-Thr wns not ll hoaW run Of
cattle hero today, but the stormy condition
of tho weather and the fact that nearly all
tho arrivals wero on the feeder order
tended to make the mnrket slow und
druggy.
There were only two cars of cornfed
cattle on tho murket nnd they wero on the
common order. As was the case on Friday,
packers were not anxious to buy that kind
of stuff nnd ns thero were only two curs
here thuru wns not enough to inuke a
market. It U evident that there Is not a
Flood demand for half-fat stuff and It Is
lard to movo nt any price.
Thera wero close to twenty-five cars of
cowh and heifers on sale today and the
quality wus very common. There wero
very few that might be called good and
those changed handa nt good, strong prices.
The medium kinds and canners wero Just
nbo.it steady nnd as the demand wns In
good shape the pens wero cleared before
the morning was far advunced.
Tho stocker and feeder trnde was In
rather bad shape today. Yard traders
failed to clean up their holdings In very
food shape last week and ns n rule had
0 sell at a lower flguro than they paid
for the cattlo. Ah a general thing they
wero not looking for a very heavy demand
from the country during the next few
days and na n result they would not buy
moro cattle today unless thoy could got
them nt a lower flrure. The best grades
did not decllno very much, probably 5c or
10c would cover It, but the common stuff
was lO'fflfs; lower. In a good manv cnnes
sellers found It almost Impossible to get
even a hid on what they had There were
very few slock cows nnd heifers 011 sale
and prices on thnt class of stock held Just
about steady. Stock lulls continue In de
mand nt good, Htrong prices.
Ther wero only a few western beef cattle
on sale and no strictly choice ones were
offered. Thu market could b quoted about
steady. Cows were In good dumnnd nt
steady to strong prices. Feeders were very
slow and lower, the decline ranging from
5c lo 15c lower, depending upon the quality.

Ileitis -There wire oidv about 2.iO0 head
of ho's on sale indav and as Chicago cam
strong to 5c higher the market here opened
up about 5c higher than Saturdays general
market. The genera! tun nf hugs bro.ight
about $1.62. with the better grades selling
at $4 05, and .is high ns $1 87 was paid.
Tho less desirable loads only brought $4.00
or worse There were s, few hugs here
that pnekers were not partlejlarh anxious
to buy and im a rchull the itist end of the
m.irket was not qulto as good. Bids were
mostly at $4.00 and $4 8J nnd as Kellers
were holding for the opening prices the
market was n little druggy for u lime
Kverythlng, however, wns cleaned up at a
reasonably
early hour. Representative

SIIKKP Tills week storied In w'th rather
a light run as compared with the receipts

tho morning Sheep sold us high ns $1 nnd
lambs brought $5.20.
As hns been tho case nil nlnng, the feeder
market did not show upv particular chanae
Tho demand seemed to lie equal to the .up

getting steady prices for what arrived

COLLEGIANS AS MULETEERS
Sigma Olii Men Pilot Carload of Mulei
Across Continent.
ARE HAVING A ROYAL GOOD TIME
Landlords Refuse 'I' hem Admission to

ing; Tbcin.
A trnluload of government raulei, 260 head
of them, enrouto from Porto Ulco to Mo
ulin, pnuacl through Omnhn Saturday nnd
stopped over for water nnd a few hours'
rest. It was an especially favorod train ot
live stock, in n way. Few consignments
hnve crossed the continent In chnrgo of so
able un escort, for five of tho crow wero
college graduates and wore upon Uielr hltlo
lluntiel shirts tho Sigma CM emblem of a
Greek letter lrutcrnlty.
In compliance with a solemn compact en
tered Into before leaving Mlddletowu, N.
Y.. that they would not nhavo until they
hud landed In San Francisco, these frnt
men wero HlghtH to behold, and there Ii
llttlo wonder they had been inlplulien for
hoboes nnd denied hospitality at half tho
Inns ut which they applied. They smoked
good a cigars and sometimes ninil Jockey
Club,' but It could not dlsgula (ho aroma
of tho Btock train. Some of them even had
their ohoc.i nhlned, but It wus a si lipid hotel
clerk who failed to sen through this thlu
veneering of respectability. The result was
n riotous time, full of adventures that wero
ubout ns exciting as a foot ball game
At a llttlo town out In Ohio where the
train sidetracked to allow a special to pass
they entered n restaurant and called for a
dozen raw for live. Tho waiter sized them
up nnd, aftor a whispered consultation nllh
thn cashier, served the oysters, but served
only ten on a plate.
"lion's this?" asked Rogers. "It took
twelve to muko a doien whero I was rained "
"That's all right," retorted tho person
with tho npron, "you'll get two more each
when I sen tho color of your money."
Tho quintet wns mndo up of Richard
Kulght, real estnto dealer. Washington. D.
C. ; Thomas C. Rogers, nttorney, Middle
town, N. Y. ; Herbert L. Royce, general su
perintendent of the strcot railway system
at Mlddletowu; C. S. Ambler, miller at New
nrk, N. J., nnd H. T. Osborne, an Insurance
agent at Albany, N. Y. Tho remainder of
tho party was mnde up of mule whackers of
tho deepest dye. All wero In tho govern
ment employ, being elapsed as "civilian
teamsters," for which service they received
$2 n day and found. Tho frntera tried to
negotlato with tho quarterrua ter general
for a slight advance over this figure, urging
ns a reaBon their ability to swear In Greek,
but the general told them that for purposes
of mule driving tho American system of
profanity has nn equal.
Last In IndlMiiiipolls.
"Speaking of profanity," snld Mr.
Rodgors, " I had nn experience In Indian
npolis two days ago that I'll not soon for
get. Our train pulled In there nbout 5
o'clock In tho afternoon nnd llireo of us
sturtcd up town to make n few purchases.
In the course of nn hour or so Kulght und
Itoyro had business In another quarter of
tho city, so we separated, agreeing to meet
at n certain time and place to go buck to
the train together. Well, 1 Say, hnvo
you ever been In Indianapolis? No? Well,
the sun sets In the south In thut man's
town. I can vouch for that. As night
came on I began to rcallr.r. thut 1 wns lost.
Couldn't find tho opposlto sldo of tho street
and I hndn't touched a drop, either.
"So I began to figure on getting back to
tho train nlono. Someone gao mo thn gen
eral direction nf tho railroad yards und f
found them without n till of trouble. In
threo minutes they wero all around me.
So much of that town Is devoted to railroad
yards that It's a wonder to mo thoy huvo
room for nnythlng else. But I was nn bel
ter off now than before, becouso I had no
private mark on our (rain by which I
could distinguish It from several hundred
acres of other trains, especially In thn
dark with a donso fog settling over every
thing. "Well. I stumbled nround over steel
rails and switch frogs, climbed under hot
cars and over Hat cars and bumped Into
vi, rloiiB kinds of rolling stock for a hnlf
hour or bo and then began to Inquire my
wny. It's a queer thing that every yard
man I met thnt night knew exactly whern
our train wus standing. He would point It
out to mo and descrlbo its surroundings
with minuteness, hut no two gavo tho
srme description. I wns lost In a wlldnr
niss of railroad assets conches, greaso.
tics, locomotives, green lights, Hwllch bars,
waving Innterns and bad smells und wan
Just beginning to lose henrt when I heard
something familiar. II wns tho voice of
Cochran, our head initio puncher.
"Cochran was nt ono time a deck hnnd
on a cni.il bont and I suppose It was horo
ho acquired tho rudiments of nn art In
which every man under him stood In awo
the nhlllty to swear with great fluency
and power. Ho could mention morn forbid
den subjects thnn any man I ovnr saw be
fore. Not of groat attainments otherwise,
or of wide reading, ho could wax eloquent
In nttacklng tho chnrnc.tnr, antecedents nnd
chances of futuro Ilfo of a mulo nnd nl
wuys In simple, pure, undeflled English.
"Well, air, those Imprecations wero musln
to my ears. No shipwrecked sailor ovnr
welcomed a beacon light with moro grati
tude than I greeted tho ornulo oaths of
Cochran. They gnve nin a distant goal
toward which to moe out of that laby
rinth of shipping. A moment later I wan
with my friends.
"Afler Cochran hnd left off his devotions
I learned from him that n mule, whose,
hoof ho was attempting to releasn from a.
feed trough, had Licked him. 1 supposo
tho kick must have hurt. Any wny, ho
said It did nnd he wns still rubbing tho
spot when I hnndeiV'lm a cigar und uskod
If Royce and Knlghtt had returned yet."
