ADVERSE INFLUENCES OUT OF THE WAY Wnr Cloud * , Silver Qneiilloii , Supreme Court Declwlon nnil Election * Arc I'nut anil Financial Arc Clear. NEW YORK , Nov. 12. ( Special. ) Henrj Clews of tbo banking firm of Clews & Co. Bays of Wall street conditions : The result of the elections has brought n veritable boom Into Wall street. The sig nificance of tbo sound money outlook In the next congress was promptly recognized ; and on Thursday when the position was but ter understood a most pronounced change for the better took place. London , which has always been particularly sensitive about the money Issue , bought freely on the strength of this favorable development , and these purchases were supplemented by strong local buying , which readily absorbed nil stock offered. Every other Inlluenco for the time being was Ignored. Good earnings and encouraging business prospects of course af forded a strong foundation for n rise , but these were not suindcnt to lift the market up to u higher level while uncertainty re mained about the complexion of the next house of representatives on the all Important currency question. A noteworthy and very encouraging feature was the wide distribu tion of orders ; activity not being confined to a few cllqucd ptwks , but spread among nil the active shares. The promptness with which railroad ntocks cut away from the In dustrials was another very satisfactory fea ture. Manipulation was present , as Is In variably the case In any large movement , but there , was also heavy buying of nn excel lent character , suggesting that the preaent movement Is moro than a transitory specu lation. Many of the reorganized properties have n future before them which , under present conditions of largo earnings nnil cheap money , Is sure to reflect Itself In n higher range of values. Jill\tT IHNIIU Iu 111 In KM Oravr. Wall street bus made no mistake In Us estimate of the outcome of the congressional olectltus. It Is n result hopeful bayoml all expectations. The silver ls.fiic Is laid In Ite grave uml Mr. Bryan with It. Populism lies elaln In Us own strongholds and 'he divisive policies that belong to It. The flrmnens wltli which the gold basis Is nlllnncd exceeds the tnost ( ungulnc expectations of Us friends and confounds Its enemies. The movement favoring a reconstruction and expansion ol our bank note system la put on the basis of an early probability and there is no mis taking the public will that the notes shall bo redeemable In gold coin. Taken as o whole the election shows a remarkable change in public sentiment from the vagaries that have been deeply unsettling confidence to a conservative and assuring attitude After listening to the dlsnffectlng scheme ! of demagogues and the allurements of re- pudlators , the sober second thought and the fundamental honesty of the popular hear ! have asserted themselves ; and we have an other of the many evidences In our hlstorj that , while our Impulsive people may for . ' time be mis-led by the schemes of political agitators , yet at the eleventh hour of dangci they may be trusted to como round to the path of snfcty and the sldo of honor. These changes bring with them an ex hilarating sense of national elevation. Men of Intelligence and men of business fen that the country has vindicated Itself agalnsl the aspersions of unfriendly critics and tin enemies of our national credit. The repub lic has silenced the chnrgeu of those whc bare sneered at our Incompetence to den with largo economic questions or to dis tinguish between the sound and the un < Bound In money and finance. It Is remark able that these popular verdicts , given Ir the midst of Important war Issues , shouli have reflected so little of the passions whlcl war excites. The people have calmly dis tinguished between the things which deter mine the future of our material Interest ! and those which , however exciting for thi time being , are yet only transient one secondary In their bearings. Thlo Is < gratifying evidence of the self-governing ca paclty of our people. Capital Mure Confident. It IB Impossible that euch broad and posi tive assurances as the elections afford shoul < fall to have an Important effect upon oni business Interests in their broadest extent Merchants and financiers seem already tc breathe a freer air. The clouds of suspense that until Tuesday had warned conservative men to keep close sail In their operations have disappeared. Men who wield largi capitals now see their way to undertaktni enterprises which they have been holding Ii euspense. Intending Investors , who havi had misgivings whether the course of poll Uc might not Impair public confidence am Impair the value of securities , now find theli fears removed and are appearing In the in vestment market. In a word , this new as Bortlon of the governing ability and thi financial honor of the American people seemi destined to develop a new era of natlona prosperity , which for some time past ha : been postponed by the persistence of polltl cal misgivings. Every adverse Influence Is now out of tin way the war cloud , the silver question , thi supreme court decision , and last , but no least , the elections. All signs of troubli have gone to the rear and are not liable- again appear at the front. All good stock are upward bound until they reach figure as much too high as they were during thi Cleveland rcgtmo too low. The country I how placed In n position to continue draw ing gold from the other side , which , togethe With what we produce , will soon swamp th silver advocates and wipe out the sllve question aa an Issue beyond redemption While this country remains on a gold basl U will draw the precious metal from nl other nations ; whereas , should this conntr go on a silver basis , other nations woull quickly draw gold away In exchange fo silver , enhancing their credit and destroy ing ours. Another advantageous feature re suiting from the elections will be to wcur : to the nation the full benefit of our brllllan Victory In the late war an achievement I naval warfare unsurpassed In the world's his tory , but which baa been belittled by th press and politicians to such an extent a to seriously diminish Us Importance an lessen the advantages which should nccru to the American people.

In many cases quotations rose sharply on American securities had a boom on th strength of ithe success of the republican in the congressional elections , which Is re gnrdcd as giving a quietus to the sliver acl tatlon. There were heavy purchases of bonds o advances of from V. to 1 per cent , while th better class of shares , especially prcfcrre < was in good demand after the election re turns became definitely known , although th closing sales of the week showed a froc tlonul tolling off.

The Financier ays : The decrease of $4.000.000 * In surulils esorvcs , following the shrinkage of (7,000- 00 for the previous week , will attract enencd attention to the condition of the few York monev market. The clearing house banks now hold $16,000.000 In xccss of legal requirements. At the rate cserves have been falling It will be seen hat the margin for available expansion Is being narrowed to small proportions. But vcn with this fact known It Is doubtful whether the response will be a rise In rates > roportlonatcly rapid. In the first place n ; rcat deal of tlie money represented In loans las been Invested In titerllng bills , which are profitable only as long as the market on this side the water Is dull. The con- Inuance of thcso Investments Is dependent on the conditions which since election seem a have been removed. Last year during the month of November he reserves of the Now York banks increased rom { 15,000.000 to $32,000,000.

Such cattle 03 were suitable for killers brought good prices , and for tl e last day of the week there was no fault to find with the condition of the cattle trade. It has been a Jpng time since BO Tew cattle arrived here during a period of six days. The total receipts for the week were little more than half the average run of a week for the past month , as will bo noted from the table of figures given above. As will be readily understood by shippers the heavy decrease In receipts Is duo to the fact that the range cattle huvo been pretty well run out , nnd that it is still too early to expect many cornfed cattle. Values during the week showed a very decided change. Cornfed cattle broke badly In nil eastern markets , and while the small supply ut this point hold this market up better than others It was lower. It would be a very moderate estimate to say that cornfed steers sold here the middle of the week 15 I20c lower than the previous week. The moderate receipts and the very good demand right at the end of the week give values a little more strength , so that the loss for the wtek was In part made up. As compared with other selling points , the fat cattle market here has been exceedingly favo-ablo to sellers. Cows nnd heifers were In light supply all the week , so that while values on beef steers were declining , good cow stuff was If anything n little stronger. For the week cows and heifers coud safely be quoted a dime higher. Bulls for the week are also strong. Veal calves have been scarce and strong all the week. The heavy falling off In cattle , was largely In feeders , nnd on most days of the week the supply of that kind of cattle was very meager. As there was a considerable de mand values firmed up nnd are 15fi30n higher , the "most advance being on such cattle as sold , say , $3.60(33.90 ( nt the low time. Common kinds of feeders have not advanced as much as the more desirable kinds , and on some days were slow sale. At the close of the week practically every thing In the yards was cleaned up. HOGS The week closed up with n Rood , liberal run of hogs , but one train of four teen cars was consigned direct to pack ers. so that the actual number on sale was no larger than the average receipts of a Saturday. The low prices prevailing In Kansas City , nnd the high prices , to gether with the moderate supply , nt this point , has Induced South Omaha packers to ship In a good many Kansas City hogs. The market today was a little stronger on heavy and packing hogs , but about steady on others. Good packing hogs sold today at | 3.42fi)3.45 ) , as against $3.4X33.42y4 ( yesterday. Good mixed loads sold princi pally nt $3,45 < & 3.674 , light load * at J3.45 © 3.47'/i , with a good load of butcher weights at JJ.50. A few loads of rough heavy ana trashy light stuff sold at $3.40. It will be noted that the top of the market was 2Vic lower than yesterday , but buyers claimed that there was nothing like yesterday's top hogs here today. The market was rea sonably active at prevailing prices , and the pens were cleared at an early hour. Shippers will take notice that while light hogs have been commanding n premium nt this point , they are lower than good heavy weights In other markets. The only reason that they have sold so high here Is 'to be found In the small supply , but now that packers have taken to shipping In light hogs It Is hardly reasonable to expect that light weights will bring much If any more than the best heavy or butcher weight The receipts of hogs have been larger this week than they were either last week or week before , still packers have com plained that they could not get hogs enough to meet requirements of their houses. At the same time this has been the high market and there has been every reason why all the shippers In this terrrltory should give this market the preference over all others. The market started out the week with lower prices , but recovered the loss on Tuesday , which proved to be the high day of the week. Values were still lower on Wednesday nnd Friday , nnd the week closed 7 ! c lower than the previous . SHEEP The market on sheep did not show much change today , the trads belnc In very much the same condition as noted yesterday. > . . . . . The arrivals this week have been liberal , as will be noted from the table of recclple clven above , but there has been a decided scarcity of mutton inrndfs. On one or two days there was n fair showing of fat sheep , but on most days there was a decided shortage. The result Is that values arc lOfl 15c higher than a week ago. There have not been enough lambscln to make n test of the market , but lit Is safe to say that had there been any horc to speak of they , tuo , would have sold higher. One small bunch of native lambs that were very good brought J5.50. - > Feeding1 sheep ureihlf'much ' lower as fat sheep are higher. There1 ! were a good many old and undesirable ! ' 'ewes In during the week nnd the whole ; , trttde In feeders was slow and draggy. 'Tho reason Is to b found In the fact that some of the shear that went out carly'Ju She reason have been coming back and losltiKlhelr ; owners plenty of money nnd buyers , are afraid to take hold of feeding stock ?

A Soldlpr'n Story of a Sliot nt a Snnn- luli Sliiirnnhontcr. One spot there was In the rough riders' camp where you could always find a curious group , visitors and troopers. This was about Josle's cage , Joslo being a mountain lion , one of the regimental pets. To watch Josie snarl and show her white teeth ; to admire the daring of her tamer , the one rough rider whose touch she would permit , as he rolled her , spitting and clawing , on her back , and cuffed her playfully and otherwise displayed his mastery ; to see her welcome poor little frowsy Cuba , the regi mental yellow dog , and pat him with her paws and show that she loved him these were sights that never grew tame for the followers of Colonel Roosevelt , writes Cleveland Moffett In Leslie's Weekly. It was in this group one morning that I met "Happy Jack , " and for an hour or so there after I enjoyed the plcturcsqueness of his talk. "Happy Jack" is a product of Ari zona. In time of peace ho delves the ground for precious metal and breaks the monotony of things by playing faro , tack ling bad men and painting the evidence of his presence over the visage of frontier towns. He does all things , good or bad , with delight , and It is not on record that he ever was afraid. He Is a sharp-featured , clean-shaven young man of about 30. He spooks English like anybody else , dialect writers to the contrary notwithstanding. "Tell him about how you got the Spanish sharpshooter , Happy , " said one of the group. "Yes , " said I , "tell me about the Spanish sharpshooter. " Without further urging "Happy Jack"1 took the center of the stage and proceeded thus : "It was on the great day when pretty much everything happened down there the 1st of July and I had just gone back from the firing line a few hundred yards to carry a wounded comrade out of danger. But It looked as If I'd done the wrong thing , for Just as I came up to where some orderlies were , zip came a bullet under my hat and went Into a gentleman behind me. I was Just thinking what a lot of life there was In that spent ball when zip came another bullet on the other side of my head and landed In a tree. " 'That's no spent ball , ' said I ; 'there's a lad getting a range on me. ' " 'It's a Spanish sharpshooter somewhere about , ' said an orderly ; 'he's killed eight or nine men In the last half-hour. See 'em there. ' He pointed to a lot of dead bodies. ' " 'Well. ' said I. 'If that's the case I guess I'd better go hunting for that Spanish sharp shooter. ' So I goes down on the ground nnd gets under cover , and I waits and I watches to make out where the fellow Is. You see , he had smokeless powder and it was a job to fix him. "I guess It took me fifteen minutes before I found him. He was high up In a cocoanut palm , close to the trunk ; just made a dark spot there like a crow's nest. So I throws up my sight to COO yards , gets good and steady and then I says , 'Almighty God , put justice and Christianity In this shot. ' and then I pulls the trigger. I said that because I was shooting with a Krag-Jorgensen , and I ain't so well used to them. If I'd had a Win chester I wouldn't have need to pray ; a Winchester Is 'Happy Jack's' graft every time. Well , sir. It worked all right. Justice and Christianity prevailed , and my friend the Spanish sharpshooter came tumbling out of that cocoanut tree so fast ho never knew what hit him. He fell forty feet and was dead before he struck the ground. " Constipation prevents the body from rid ding Itself of waste matter. De Witt's Llt- cure sick headache , biliousness.

"There Is a general Idea , " wld a New Orleans Insurance agent to a Times-Demo crat man. "that the pay of a private in the regular army la entirely too small to permit him saving any money , but a case came under my observation recently that seems tc prove quite the contrary. As usual , It all depends on the man. The one I have In mind Is a sergeant who was stationed for uomo years at a southern poet. Ho was In New Orleans during the present war. and I was asked to attend to seine formalities con nected with a travel permit on an Insurance policy ho carried. H was for J10.000 and had been In force since 1894. I was surprised at a noncommissioned regular having a policy of that size and took special pains to draw the man out In conversation. He told mo that he wasn't even a sergeant when he tosk the Insurance , but a plain every-day private , and that every dollar he possessed had been mode from the capital of hla wages. He had dabbled a little In money lending at the outset , but , although the profits were enormous , he found the busi ness was making him unpopular among the men. and ho then bought an Interest In i small candy store near the post. That pros pered and be made other Investments , all ol which have turned out so well that be U worth today between J.10,000 and { 15,000. lit JOBBERS ANB MANUFACTURERS OF OMAHA.
