Within tho laul wook or two, however, tho

trued as placing both lu tho list of cer

Contemporaneously with this mnturlniT of

Uncertainties mirrnundlnir Hie near future
of tho money market have boon virtually
dissipated. Tho mi I Mow of rurrency to Ihi!
Interior has evidently truohed hluh-water
mark and need no longer be regarded ns n
factor fostering hesitation about buying
necurltles. Further, the rate at which i;ol I
Is coming hither from other countries U
mire evidence Hint Now York Is no longer
likely to suffer any net loss of money from
the TcstwuiM or southward shipments,
Indeed, the tact that we can get money
from Ktiropn In any amount to cult o.ir
oonvenlonee, removes tho monev market
from tho list of possible obstacles to nil
upward movement In stocks, and clears tho
way to a bull campaign aoonor thun has
been expected.
Tho C hicago Hoard of Trade has been
ongngod all summer waging war nrjnlnut
the. bucket shops, and liaa summarily dealt
with several nf Its member for having
hnd commotion therewith. Tho governor.
of that Institution have also ordered all
public quotations Mopped, and are now or
gnnlzltig tholr telegraph pervitin so us to
Iceop tho quotations within their control
mil from being obtained by bucknt shop
lealers. It may become necessary f'T all
ither legitimate oxchnngoH throughout tho
wuntry to tako similar ictltm beforo thH
ilemorallzlug biislness can be broken up.
Tlio.ro Is no doubt but that a great deal
of tho recent staimatlon In the. eomm!sjm
business of Wnll street and other leadlnir
Dnauclal centers l.i largely nttrlhutable to
tho Immcnso aircrcirat on of bucket shot)
transactions which have kent lultiens out
of the various exchanges. Tho New York
'Hock exchange several years ago took a
decided stand In this matter, and has been
vigilant over since, but bns not yot tnkou
the extreme action that the C'hlcaco Hoard
of Trade has lately done. It mnv. how-
over, bo round necessary to do so mtnr on
beforo the country Is rid ot this great evil.
It Ii evident that tho New York Stock
oxchango has not been lanctlvo lu this
matter, an will be shown by tho actlm

This Is evidence of how the New York

It Is understood that at tho regular moot
ing of tho Hoard of Education, to be hold
on Novembor C, tho architect of tho
board, A. I. Ilnvls, will bo Instructed by
resolution to preparo plans for a High
school building, to be erected on the slto
purchased from Thomas Hoctor. It Is
estimated that tho comploted building will
cost in t,ho neighborhood of $80,000. 'Whothor
one wing, two wings or the wnoio struc
ture will bo erected next year remains
o bo seen. In speaking of this matter yea
crdav afternoon a member of the board
said that It all remained with tho pooplo.
The board, ho asserted, is dcstrouB of so-
curing an expression of approval or dls-
pproval from tho taxpayers as soon aB
oaslble. If only ono wing Is erected nt
his time tho cost will amount to prob-
bly J30.000, but It is thought that two
Mncs can bo built for $50,000, lcnvlng tho
moln portion of the building to bo crectod
hen funds arc at hand.
Of coureo tho main question is ono of
finance. If only one wing Is erected next
prlng and tho cost iIocb not exceed $30,-
000, tho revenuo of the board, providing
there Is a high levy, ralgut pay for tho
conatructlon. A drain of this sort, how
over, will tend to curtail exponsea In other
opartmonta, Culto an Increase in revenue
s looked for from saloon licenses next year.
as tho license will bo $1,000 Instead of $500
as at present. This year the board has
received about $16,000 from saloon llcensos,
but with the Increase In llcenso It 1b ex
pected that this amount will be raised to
at least $"D,000. This Increaso In license
will alono pay for ono wing of the pro
posed building.
Some favor tho Issuing of bonds In or
der that two wings or tho entiro build
ing may bo orectod at once and thus pro
vide Kchool room for a larga numbor of
pupils who aro now compelled to attend
sessions In outsldo room3. ny tho erec
tion of ono or two wings tho rental of a
number of outsldo rooms can be dispensed
with and tho overcrowded condition of tho
Central school relieved.
What tho, members of Iho board par
ticularly deslra to Inform, thcmselvoa on 1b
tho feeling of the peoplo toward a bond
lssito. Several attempts nave been mndo
n the past to Issuo bonds for tho erection
of school buildings, but In ovory lnstnnco
tho taxpayers voted against tho proposi
tion, so that now tho school district owns
proporty worth at least $250,000 against
which thoro is not a cont of bonded debt.
An attempt will bo made, It is under
stood, to obtain an expression ot opinion
from tho peoplo at an early da to iu order
that tho work of letting contracts may go
ahead after plans aro approved. It all
of thoso preliminaries aro arranged this
winter everything will bo In readiness to
commenco work as soon as tho weather
will permit In tho spring.

Iilenl Itotilier of llomniire Holnc lim
ine tn Italy.
All Italy Is In a stato of excitement over
tho exploits ot tho brigand Mussotlno, whose
murder record Is rapidly nearlng champion
figures, Somo ttmo ago, reports a Loudon
letter, ho wis convicted of tho murder of
an Inoffensive, peasant and was sentenced
lo twenty-five years' imprisonment. Ho re
cently escaped and took to tho open coun
try as a brigand with tho avowed object of
taking vengeance upon everybody connec
ted with tho trial.
An enterprising reporter, taking his lifts
In his hands, obtained an Interview with
tho blood-stained ruffian. Muasaltno put on
highly virtuous frills with tho newspapor
ninn. He said:
"I harm nobody who has cot Injured mo.
I am no vulgar malefactor, but take my
word, I will kill every one of the scoun
drels who 'denounced mo to tho law and
gave evidence against mo; tho members of
tho Jury who dared to find mo guilty of
common crlmo and the Judges who had tho
audacity to send mo to prison, all shall
know what It means to bo tho enemy of
Mussollno. llut alt other peoplo neod not
fear. 1 protect thorn." '
Such wholesale threats would ho grotesque
In any other country, but MiiEsollno Is a
man of his word. Murder has followed mur-
er with Incredible rapidity, nnd, after
nil, tho fiend runs no particular risk, as
there is no capita! punishment In Italy and
If captured ho will bo no worse oft than
If ho had merely hidden from escaping. Ho
has already killed every man who gave evi
dence against him and hn3 murdered seven
of tho Jury, whllo two others are awaiting
their doom In a stato of abject terror, al
though protectod by tho police night and
day. Tho remaining threo died natural
deaths, or, aB somo say, unnatural deaths
from fright.
Apart from his legitimate quarry, so to
speak, Mussollno has incidentally killed two
carbineers. Tho last crime was committed
on Tuesday, when ho emptied tho alx cham
bers of his revolver into Judgo .Izllll, a
member of the court which sentenced him.
Tho Judgo la dead, of course, and his sons
and brothers aro cow Joining In tho chase
of tho murderer.
All these crimes havo been committed tn
tho provluco of Hcgglo Calabria. Tho des
porado is absolutely terrorizing tho entire
province. Ills courago and Indomltablo
norvo aro succrb. Ho does not confine his
murderous work to tho country or to tho
night time. Several times ho haa entered
towns and villages lu broad daylight, killed
hla victim and disappeared this desplto tho
fact that a price of 10,000 lires, or about
$2,000, Is upon his head and that tho entire
provincial forco of gendarmes and militia
wsro hunting htm.
Mussollno is nbout 28 years old and of flno
physlquo llko tho robbers ot romance. He
Is kind to tho poor and has a protty way
with womon, who aro believed to act as
willing lutelllgcnco officers.
Tho great trial at Palermo, consequent
upon tho latest effort to oxtlrpato brlgan
dago In Sicily, waa concluded this week.
It lasted threo months and was full ot ex
citing dramatic incidents, but tho Itallana
havo not taken nearly as much Interest In
it as In Mussollno's murderous exploits.
The Palermo prisoners numbered 249. They
wero accused of all possible crimes from
murder to housebreaking. The sentences
passed aggregated tho stupendous total ot
stxtoen centuries, than which there 1b
surely nothing muro remarkable outside of
comic opera.
As soon as the president ot the tribunal
bad finished reading tho Judgment tho pris
oners howled iu chorus and made des
perato cffortB to break through the Iron
bars behind which they wero caged. The
guard of eighty gendarmes lcvelod tholr
rifles at tho condemned men while tho presi
dent shouted: "If at my third word order
is not restored I will order tho gendannca
to fire. Now thon, one, two'
Ilcforo the Judge could say three alt tho
prisoners threw themselves on tholr knees
and begged for mercy nnd at a gesture from
the bench tho gendarmes lowered their
rifles. So ended a strange trial. There Is
a atrong suspicion that qulto halt tho prts
oners were victims ot agents ot tho provo
catours.

Ills Influence Mnde th Whole Illock
t Ilenutlful to Look Upon,
Charles A. Josslyn, head bookkooper for
tho firm ot Morgan & Wright, haa sue
coeded In making tho block in which ho
lives as clean aa a gentleman's lawn, re
latca the Chicago American. Filth la co-
whero to bo Eocn, bad odors disturb not tho
pnssor-by and although by no means an
arlstocratlo section no part of tho city haa
a purer air or a more Inviting, restful aa
pect.
Each morning tho street to carefully
swept, each householder looking attor tho
part In front ot his own place. Baskets aro
kept In tho back yards for wasto paper,
which oncu a week Is burned. The alleys
are as carefully looked after as the street
and no boulevard In tho city la inoro pre
sentable. Tho fences, front nnd rear, tho
Bldowalks, tho lawns, aro carefully watched
to see that no algn of dilapidation or Bhab-
bluess appears, Tho entiro block bears
tho Impress of cleanliness, thrift and Joy,
contrasting most forcibly with tho sur
rounding territory.
All this has been brought about by one
roan's personality. The luflucnco of tho Bin
glo Individual has transformed tho whole
block. Betting tho example of his own
home ho appealed to his nolghbora to do
llkowlso and Blowly but suroly thoy fell In
with the suggestion and today tho result
Is grateful to gods and men. Why cannot
ovory block In town havo its Josslyn?
Mr. Josslyn has nn Idea that we should
not live altogether for self, but Bhould eon
tribute to the happiness of othors. Whon
asked what church he bolonged to he re
piled:
"The church ot nature; 'tho church,1
to quoto Ingcrsoll, that holds tho world
wlthtu Its fctarllt Isles; that claims tho
green and good ot ovory clime nnd race;
that Hilda with Joy tho grain of gold In
ovory crooil and Hoods with light and lovo
the germ of good in ovory bouI,' "
Mr. Josslyn invites all to make uso of
his "park," n quarter-acre yard aroun
about tho protty little brick cottage where
ho lives. Throughout tho past summer
hundreds of llttlo ones enjoyed tho hoa
pltality.of the "park," Its flowers, green

Xew ClminperrtiH.
The English acting consul for Zanzibar
reports tho discovery of a new guttapercha.
Tills substiinco Is derived from a tree which
grows principally at Dunga. When tapped
with a knife, a whlto fluid emanates, which,
whon placed In boiling water, coagulates
Into a aubstanco which, In character, bears
a very striking resemblance to guttapercha,
says tho Scientific American. As the mate
rial cools It becomes exceedingly hard, but
whllo soft It can bo molded Into any re
quired shape. The fruit of tho treo resem
bles a peach In shnpo, but grows to tho size
of a smalt melon. Experts have experi
mented with thla now producl to boo If It
any way possosaoa the qualities of gutta
percha, and although It Is not expected to
provo equal to the gonulnc article, it Is con
sidered that it will bo quite aultablo for
somo purposes for which guttapercha It at
present uttllzod, and will thus become a
marketable article. It Is said to abound In
Zanzibar, and will be a very cheap product.
I'lnnt Culture liy Electricity.
Fttrthor details havo been received of tho
latest developments In ItUBsIa In the culture
of plants by electricity. The Russian ex
porlmento wero started on threo dlffcront
lines. M. Spyeahncff, repeating well-known
experiments on electrified seeds, confirmed
tho bollof already exlrtlng that such seeds
germinate more rapidly and glvo better
fruit and better crops from two nnd a half
to six times higher than seeds that have
not been submitted to preliminary electrlfl
cation. Ho next ropeated tho experiment
ot Hoss that is, burying In the soil ono
copper and ono zinc plate, placed vertically
and connected by a wlro. He found that
potatoes and roots grown tn the electrified
spaco have crop" three times heavlor thon
tboso which were grown closo by on a test
plat. The growth was especially vigorous
In tho catrot, many of these roots attain
ing a diameter of from ten to twelvo Inches.
In his third set of experiments Spyeahncff
started out on moro original lines. He
planted on his experimental plat, about ten
yards apart, wooden posts surmounted with
inetalllo aigrettes conncctod together by
wires, so aa to cultivate his plants under a
network of wires. Ono of the striking re
suits obtained was that tho growth and
ripening of tho barley crop was accelerated
by twelve days. Another IlUBBlan, M. Krav-
hoff, has Just undertaken a series of lab
oratory experiments upon boxes of soil sub
mitted to electric currents Tho temperature
of the soil was raised by theso currents
Its motsturo decrcasod first, but began to
Increase after a course of threo weeks the
samo lncroaso of molsturo has been noticed
by other Investigators. Finally tho amount
of vegetable matter In the soil was In
creased by the electric currents. While the
Russian experimenta In tho majority of
casos havo shown that tho culture of plants
may bo Improved by electric treatment,
tests made In this country seem to estab
lish the fact that electro-culturo Is not In
every ense a prolltablo venturo from a com
mercial point of view. In other wordB, whllo
It Is ot great vnlue In thn cultivation ot
certain plants, tn other cases Its use Is not
deelrablo.
Cnnilln Power Ilrllllnneles.
Dr. Louis Holt gives a comparative tablo
of the Intrinsic brilliancies in cadle power
per square Inch ot surface on sources of
light. Tho sun In zonlth has a brilliancy
ot 600,000, the Bun at 30 degrees olevatlon,
500.000: tho sun at horizon, 2,000 (theae are
rough equivalent values, taking account of
absorption), tho arc light 10,000 to 100,000
(tho maximum being 200,000 In tho orator);
calcium light, 6,000; Incandescent tamp, 200
to S00 (dependent on efficiency), melting
platinum, 130; InoloBed arc. 75 to 100 (with
In the opalescent globe); incandescent gas
light, 20 to 25; keroseno lamp, 4 to 8; gas
flamo, 3 to 8 (both these aro very variable);
candlo, 3 to 4; Incandescent (frosted), 2 to
5, and opal-shaded lamps, 0.5 to 1. Noto
worthy In this list Is the enormous dla
crepancy between tho Intrinsic brilliancy
of Incandescent olcctrlo lamps nnd tho other
sources of light which follow. It Is ad
mitted that this exceptional brilliancy is
apt to produce bad effects from tho oc
cullBt'a point ot vlow, and makes tho use
of efficient shades tmporatlvi. While the
eye adapts ltoclf automatically to tho eur
roundtng'tllumlnatlon, it takes aomn llttlo
tlmo for tho retina to adjust Itself to dif
ferent degrees of light. So that for the
oyo to come Into a brilliant light after
bolng In a dark placo is exceedingly trying
to tho nerves nnd muscleB of sight. Thoro
la no surer method of causing sight troubles
than to havo a brilliant Bpot of light Ilka
tho lucandescont filament of aa eloctrtc
lamp constantly acting upon tho retina
To ahow tho advantage of not having too
grcnt a contrast between the Illumination
on the walla of a room and the sourco of
light, Dr. Bell places a brilliant lamp un
shaded In a good-sized room and then oh
serves the effect ot placing an opal shade
over tho light. Tho apparent lllumlna
tlon of tho room la Increased by tho nd
dltlon of tho abade, although the actual
light given off by tho bright lamp has been
decreased. Dr. Doll urges the use of dls
trlbuted or diffused light, as a saving to
tho eyrs, and recommends that lamps
Bhould be pland In such a way that their
filaments do nnt romo lu tho line of tlm
ordinary range of vision.
InoHiiileaoent I.mnps.
The glowing filament ot a modern in
candescent lamp represents a great amount
of hard and faithful work in the evolution
from tho crude beginnings of twenty years
ago, Tho first filaments wero mado ot plati
num wire, but this material melts when It
reaches a temperature high enough to glvo
a good commercially available light. It was
Been that carbon must be used the most
refractory of tho elements. In order to got
carbon In tho form of a slender filament or
wtro It waa evidently easiest to tako somo
vegotablo substance containing carbon, cut
It nnd bend It to tho proper Blze and shapo
and then carbonlzo It by heat. IA the first
commercial lamps mado la this country
bamboo was used, tho specimens being care
fully selcctod and planted by hand to size.
Paper, silk and cotton cords nnd a variety
of other substances wero tried, but tho best
Is nltro-cellutoso dissolved In ether or col
lodion, which may bo squirted from a llttlo
glass teat In a fine stream that Immediately
solidifies nnd becomes a thin rod or cord,
closely resembling tho flno gut strings of n
banjo or guitar. This thread la qulto uni
form and very strong and easily worked.
After carbonization, howover, tho filament
is not entirely uniform, bolng thinner In
somo places than In others. It Is therefore
placed in a vessel containing the vapor ot
gasolene and ts gradually Heated to In
candesccncn by passing nn electric current
through It. Tho thin spote, offering moro
resistance to the current than the remainder
ot tho filament, become hot first and decom
pose tho gasolene vapor, a very hard, fine
grained, dense carbon being deposited upon
the hot spot. In this wny the Ulamcnt -automatically
bocoraos uniform In u fow mo
menta. Lamps nro now made In enormous
quantities. Tested for defects, assorted,
packed and guaranteed for performance,
they aro now sold at 20 conts each. When
the oleotrlo tight waa first introduced in
Now York the prlco was $1 each, the pur
chaser taking his chances as to how good
tho lamp waa nnd how long It would burn.
Front Htrnm to F.Iectrlclty.
When It was stated tho othor day by
the scientist who has charge of the elab
orate and extensive Installation of elec
tric powor upon tho New York elevated
fcyttcm that It would coat $12,000,000 to
mako the chango ho did cot Include In
that estimate tho loss which would bo en
tailed through the abandonment of the
little steam locomotives. Thero aro sev
eral hundred ot theso and tor nearly
twonty years thoy havo been hauling hun
dreds of thousands ot passengers every
day, In recent yenra an average of 600,000
dally. Theso llttlo locomotives will prob
ably bo sent to tho scrap heap, although
a few ot them may bo sold to Interior
railways in South America, where econ
omy In the equipment ot tho roads is n
vory Important object. It was, In fact,
this very suggestion of extravagant chango
of motive power that led Mr. Gould and
bis associates' to go ahead very slowly In
tho Investigations which the proposed
chango Involved. They must havo had
every objection, one after the other, ro-
moved or thoy would uot havo agreed
upon tho chango. Four years ago, when
tho proposition first caused discussion, the
olovutcd maungers wero told that the de
velopment of electric motive power had
cot progressed far enough at that tlmo
to Justify making any change. Slnco that
time tho scientists have by experiment
and by utilizing pretty much all of the
Inventions applicable to apparatus de
signed for electricity ns'a motive power
perfected tho undertrollow system of Now
York. Four years ago Bonio of tho ex
perts wero certain that It would bo 1m
posslblo to perfect a trolley system tho
conductor In which was to be located be
neath tho surface ot tho street. It haa
been done, howover, and now tho an
nouncement Is mado that tho last of tho
leuger lines of surface railways employing
animal power Is to abandon In a few days
that power and when this Is dono New
York will bo without any anlmal-drlvcn
Btroot railway except two or three very
short lines. As it Is tho last ot nil tho
cittea lu the United States (and In saying
this reference ta mado only to tho old city
ot New York) to abandon animal power,
It Is ono of tho most perfectly equipped
so far as electrical Installation Is con
corned ot any city In the world. Excoptlng
in the upper suburbs of tho old city, not
one ovcrhoad trolley line haa been estab
lished and the sub-surfneo system has
provon not only safe, but economical, both
as to the cost ot operation and as to tho
Increased service they make pouslble.
VliHt the CIiuiikc Sienna.
Superintendent W. E. Baker, who has
had ctargo ot tho electrical construction
and equipment slnco the change in motlvo
power was decided on, says that ovory of'
fort la directed toward the completion of
tho great power Btatlon. The foundation
and plcra and part of tho four chimneys
having been comploted, rapid advance to
an opetatlng stago will be made. Tho
chimneys will havo a dlamotor of seven
teen feet tn tho clear, and bo 278 feet high.
The new power trains will havo two motor
cars, one at each cud of a six-car train.
Each motor car will havo four 100-horso
power motors, bo that each train will hnv
SOO-horse power. With this a train flvo
seconds after starting from a station will
have a speed ot ten miles an hour, and lu
ten seconds one of twenty miles an hour,
tho .maximum schedule lime. Electricity
wtll operate brakes, headlights, illumina
tion and sound signals. The trains will
move smoothly, with llttlo noise, and with
out Jolts and clndcra; heat slopping and
odors will bo nuisances ot tho past. Many
ot the old cars will bo remodeled for swrv
Ico with the now motlvo power. Features
ot tho new system will bo better telephono
servico and the proper lighting of the stu
tlona. Each station will havo fifty sixteen-
candlo power Incandescent lamps, and the
total number of Incandescent lamps at tho
stations and on tho cars will be 30,000.
Nearly all tho third-rail material has been
delivored. Some lengths aro already In

nnd near Eighty-sixth street. Tho rail,
which in general appearance Is like a high
T-rall, is one of tho highest possible con
ductivity, and comos from tho works of
the Lackawanna Iron nnd Steel company.

CATTI.,13 There were not enoutrh cattlo
on nale today to make a tiiarkot, but tho
fow odds and ends that did Hell brought
about steady prices.
This has been rather a Unlit week in
cattlo receipts, tho supply showing a de
crease us compared with last week of 4,372
head anil as compared with tho samo
week last year thero Is a fulling off of
8,411 head. Tho demand waa lu good shapo
all tho week for the better grades of cattle
und prices wero well maintained.
Tho supply of corn cuttle was rather
IlHht, tho samo aa It haa boon all along,
I'uukera seemed to want thn better grade
and thosu answering lo that description
brought good, strong prices, particularly
early In thu weok. Tho latter part of tho
week thero wero 110 choice cattlo on sale,
whllo thero wero u guod many common
and hnir fat stuff, for which th demand Is
vory poor. On Friday tho market was
very mean on that kind of stuft and It Is
sato to call prlceu fully a dlmo lower for
thu week, though In somo cases bids wero
moro than that. Tho host grudes may bo
quoted Just about steady.
The supply of good cows tho past week
was very small. It has been a long tlmo
kluco aa few choice buuchcu were offered
on tho market and us packers are all
looking for that kind of cattlo prices aro
fully a dlniH higher than they were at
tho close of last week. Thero has been a
liberal run ot common cauners, howover,
und prices havo gouo oft a good 10c. It Is
iiulto probublo that there will bo a good
many very common cannera on the market
now, as tills is tho time of year when they
UHUully arrive. Tho medium grades of
cutvs havo not shown much chance.
Tho stoekor und feeder mnrkut waB In
good nhape tho Ilrst part of tho week and
by Wednesday prices wero all tho way
from Ijo to 30c higher. The higher prices,
howuver, seemed tu shut off tho demand
lrom tlm country and us u result tho mar
ket broko on Thursday and b'rlduy nnd
the week closed with very little udvunco
over tho eloso of lust week. It lu thu
eholco grades of all weights that oell tho
bent, tho common kinds being neglected.
J.ato Saturday there were still a good
many cattlo In the hands of yard traders
nnd not very many buyers wero In evi
dence. Stock cows and heifers havo been
In light supply ull the week and prices
havo not shown much change. Stock bulls
have been good sellers and aro a llttlo
higher than thoy were a week ago,
western ueef cattlo have been scarce and
good stuff Is fully steady with tho prices u
week ago. Thu common stulT, however, Is
not In vory good demand and prices nro
hardly steady, Oool cmva am about a dlmo
hlchor for tho week und common ennners
uro full that much lower. Feeders ad
vanced tho Ilrst of tho woek, but closed
with prices not much different thun thoy
wero at tho close of last week.
HOGS Thero was no more than a usual
Saturday's run ot hogs 5n salo today, and
as tho demand her was 111 good shape und
Chicago reported stronger prices, the mar
kot hero opened up actlvo and u nickel
higher. Tho bulk of tho sales went from
$1.65 to $4.60, with tho long string ut JUT,!,.
It was not long bofora most of thn hogs
that had urrlved woro sold. Aa high aB
JI.62J4 was paid for a load welglilng around
290 and a mcdlumwelght and u light load
also sold at tho sumo figure. Packers do
not ironslder weight as much as they do
quality, fo that u good heavy and a good
light load will bring ubout tho samo prlcfl.
The market closed without material
change, everything bolng sold at u rea
sonably early hour.
Tho nog market this weok went down nt
a rapid rato. Iluyers took off about a
dlmo at a time until Friday, whon sellers
succeeded lu holding thn market close lo
steady, only nbout lo bolng lost. Tho
average prlco on Friday wus a fraction
over JI.B1, or tlm lowest point reached since
last January, For tho week It was a do
cllno of over 30a, nnd aa compared with
the high point of the month, which was
J5.19, on October 4, thero was a decline of
68c. Tho demand has been good all the
weok, but as tellers were slow to mako
tho concessions In price tho market wus,
an a rule, rather alow in getting started.
8HISKP This has been another rocord
breaker In tho matter of sheep receipts for
the week. L,ust week held the record ui
to that tlmo, but the supply this week
excooded last week's figures by 2.2M head.
Ab compared with the samo week last year
thero la un Inoreasa of 27,351 head. Tho
supply so far this year Is 1.0C9,1C0 head,
which Is only a llttlo over 17,000 head less
than tho receipts for all last, year.
In spite of the big run this week tho
market has been In good shape. Packers
wero ull good buyorB, and each day's offer
ings wero plckod up at nn early hour.
Sheep havo not changed much as far as
quotations go, but tho market has been
strong nil tho weok. I-arnbs. however,
havo udvnnced fully a quarter. 'Iho highest
prlco of the week, J5.35, waa paid on Fri-
Feeders havo also been good sellers nil
tho wjok. tho demand .being fully equal to
tho supply, und prices havo he d Just about
Htesdy. It hits been a good, steady to
strong market nil the weok.
