NEW YORK, Aug. 81. The following are
the quotations on mining stocks:
Increased Activity on 'Change, rrltta
Somewhat Better Feellna.
NEW YORK, Aug. 31. There was a con
siderable growth In the volume of business
In stock today and a show of strength
which was quite Imposing, but neither the
activity nor the strength lasted the day out.
The aggregate, transactions rose to half a
million shares, but the largest part 01 tins
was done In the two hours before noon.
During the active period of the market
advances over Saturday of 1 to 2 points had
become quite numerous, but the last pries
of the cay show very rew gains 111 execs
of a point. The demonstration of strength
was evidently due largely to concerted no
tion by professional traders. Uncovered
beam boon me discouraged by the dull re
sistance of last week a .market to any at
tack and the bullish traders -became corre
spondingly encouraged and helped to drive
the bears to cover. Professional sentiment
was more cheerful on account of Improved
factors In the amoral outlook, but there
was nothing to show that any considerable
outside demand for stocks played a part
in the day's movement. "
There Is no doubt that confidence over the
money situation has been greatly Increased
alnce the Intimation of the readiness on the
part of the secretary of the treasury to de
posit 40.000,OCO of government money now
in the treasury with deposit bnnks. This
Is felt to be an effectual safeguard ngnlnst
a threat of violent stringency In money.
and money lenders are decidedly less exact
ing In their conditions for time loans.
Quoted rates are only slightly lower, but
the stringent conditions which have at
tached to the making of loans for aom
time past are relaxed. These conditions
wore prohibitive except to favorite borrow
ers on the part of some of the banks. Tho
limits of the available supply have been
considerably extended and with the present
surplus reserve held by the nanK oonn-
dence la pretty rirmiy established in The
ability of the money market to meet le-
quirements upon It. '
Encouraging reports of railroad traffic to
day, Inst week'a cheerful tone over the gen
eral trade situation on the part of the mer
cantile agencies and the belief that n. quiet
absorption of securities by Investors both
foreign and domestic has been going on,
had to do with the stronger feeling In tho
stock market. This morning much was
made of the transfer of the holdings of the
nndepTltlng syndicate for Metropolitan
securities to other dominant Interests In the
property tondlng to consolidate the control.
References were drawn by the trader from
this transaction of n coming consolidation,
of all the traction nnd lighting Interests
in Greater New York nnd In outlying terri
tories. A considerable stimulation to this
speculation was the result.
The market became almost stagnant In
the later stages, but Closed heavy. Some
buying for London account, which was
large In Erie, helped the early advance.
Reading hung hack on account of the utter
sncea attributed to the legislative executive
head of the system pointing to an accumu
lation of anthracite and a possible curtail
ment of the productions In consequence.
St. Paul was the leader In the railroad Hat
nnd enjoyed an extreme advance of 2
points.
The strength In the corn market and re
ports of unseasonable temperature had
their Influence on the reaction of stocks
owing to tho imnortance now attached to
the outcome of the corn crop.
The bond market was firmer. Total sales,
par value. $1,336,000. United States bonds
were all unchanged on the last can.

nATTLifl There was a very muuerate tun
of cattle here today for this time of the
year and fat cattle In particular were In
light supply. As a result beet steers were
in good aemand and prices ruled steady to
hlgner.
1 nerA were aeverari loaus ol curn icu
steers on sale this morning and some of
them were the best that have been here In
a lonr time. A new top was put on. the
market, when a string of Heretords sold
for 15. .6 and some blaca cattle brought fo.bo.
roe nrevlous hich Diice of the year waa
15.55. which was paid last week. It Is safe

change from last Friday. Trading was not
particularly brisk, but still tho more de
sirable grades changed hands without much
trouble at steady prices, ine common cuiu
medium kinds were barely steady.
Bulls, veal calves and stags commanded
JuBt about ateady prices.
A large proportion 01 too unci iiikb ....a
morning consisted of stockers and. feeders
end aa a result speculators were Inclined
to bid lower. In the majority of cases the
ood stuff sold about steady, while the mo
lum and common kinds were a little neg
lected and, If anything, a trifle lower.
There waa not the snap to the market that
characterised the trade a week ago today,
ub buyera were very cautious.
There were only a few western grass
steers that were good enough for killers
and there were none at all that could be
called choice. Packers, though, had to
have some cattle and as a result they paid
uteidy to strong prices for such as were
offered. Range cows sold generally steady,
though salesmen In some coses thought
they had a hard time to get steady prices
for the common kinds. Stockers and feed
ers sold In last week's notches where the
quality was satisfactory, and where it waa
not they had to sell lower. Representative
sales:

HOUS There was a liberal run of hog
reported thla morning, but about twenty
cara were consigned direct to local packers
and were not on sale. There were, how
ever, a fair number on sale for a Monday.
The market held Just about steady with
ine close of isst week. ana. wnne iraaing
was not particularly brisk, the hogs kept
moving toward the scales, so the bulk was
disposed of in fairly good season. The
heavy hogs sold larwely rrom 10 Zo to t.,
medium weights went from 86.30 to 85.40
and the lights sold all the way from $6.40
to $5.76. The top price was paid for a
very fancy load of Berkshlres welghlrrg
194 pounds. The price paid was of course
much higher than the top on Saturday,
but, considering quality and weight. It was
not much more than a steady price.
There waa not much change In the
market until toward the close, when pack
ers had their more urgent orders filled,
and they bought the last few loads a shade
lower. Representative sales:

The heavy run of feeders this morning
mane mivers rather bearish, while sales
men were holding for steady prices. It
took some time for buyers and sellers to
ret together and the market could best be
described by calling It rather slow and
steady to a little lower. Lambs seemed

AUTOMOBILES IN THE PARKS
Commissioner Craig Writes Concern
ing; the Renwlatlon of tho 1
Whlss Waarons. y
OMAHA, Aug. 31. To the Editor of The
Bee: I desire to have a small space In
your valuable paper to answer a few
point's brought out In an article
headed, "Auto Owners In Protest" I
am of the same opinion as Judge Ogden,
that the restrictions against automobiles
have been brought about by the reckless
drivers of same. I am fully aware that the
majority of our cltiseas owning automo
biles have exercised common sense in their
use, but we have a few who seem to think
other cltlaens have no rights. We have
evidence to the fact that when they were
the cause of accidents they had not the
manliness to stop and ascertain what dam
age was done, but used the full speed of
the machine to get out of sight. I believe
If good Judgment was exercised In the use
of automobiles but a short time would
any restrictions be necessary.
I see where Judge Wharton says that
this city should not be compared with a
large city like Chicago. I would call the
honorable Judge's attention to the fart that
In the city of Denver, which claims a popu
lation of 176,000, they have been obliged to
adopt measures regulating automobiles,
which measures are not sixty days old yet.
They are not prohibited from any park or
boulevard streets, but the speed limit Is
not to exceed eight miles per hour, and
when approaching any crossing of street
or boulevard to slow up to four miles, and
if they sea any horse or horses frightened
to come to a stop until they pass, under a
penalty of $25 for the first offense. Each
driver must havs his machine registered
and numbered, and must receive a license
to operate an automobile before being al
lowed to operate a machine on any street,
park or boulevard Inside the city limits.
I believe In being liberal with the auto
mobiles, but our park and boulevard sys
tems were bought and Improved so far at a
great expense to the general citlcens, and
anything that has a tendency to debar the
general publlo from the free use of the
same ought to be regulated, and the Park
board passed A resolution at Its regulnr
meeting In June prohibiting the automo
bile from Hanscom park, and limiting the
speed anywhere else on the park or boule
vard system to not exceed eight miles an
hour. Most respectfully,
J. Y. CBAIO, Park Commissioner.

CANTALOUPES FR0M ILLINOIS
Featnre on the Market, with Cali
fornia Freestone Peaches la
Second Place.
A car of finely flavored cantaloupes from
Illinois was one of the market features
yesterday. The melons were packed In
large sited grape baskets, holding twelve
to sixteen, and so'd for 60 rents. A car
load of Sallways from California, was also
made welcome, as there have been very
few freestone peaches on the market for
a week. They brought 81.10 and went rap
Idly. A car of Utah freestone peaches Is
on the way to Omaha, and the supply
from California will be more plentiful in
a few days.
But housewives who desire to put up
pesches this year are solemnly warned by
the commission men to get In their sup
plies, as the market for them wIP be closed
unusually early thla yesr. California has
been almost the sole source of supply, the
crops In other peach growing sections
being very, light. The last rfraehes of ths
reason, It is now expected, will arrive In
about three weeks, snd nons will be on
the market after October 1.
Potatoes, most of them of g.dbd quality,
are being shipped In from Nebraska and
other states, the Iocs! supply being short.
They hoid close to 80 cents a bushel. Home
grown sweet potatoes are tl 30 a bushe1,
and Virginia sweets are $3.75 a barrel
Other vegetable prices sre: Corn, 10 cents
per dosen; tomatoes, 20 and 25 cent a
