JUDGE GARY IS OPTIMISTIC
Head at Steel Trust Say New DwsU
ess Will Follow Sale
af Crops.
NEW TORK, Sept. 17.-E. H. Gary, chair
man of the board of directors of the United
States steel corporation, took an optlmlstto
view of the nuslnes outlook tn an Interview
today. He declared that a general quick
ening of business will follow the sale of
17,000,000.000 worth of crop, which he expects
to take plane In a few week if th weather
remain favorable.. In th near future, he
added, the public win realise that not In
ten year ha R had -such a chance to pick
up good securities. When thla time come,
he e 11, companies will be enabled to
raise fund for renewal, Improvement and
expansions. Mr. Gary continued:' "To me
the general situation I this: Th country
was lax need of between S600.ooo.000 and
Sl.OOO.OOO.OOO additional capital and could not
get It. The next best thing happened a
slowing down. ' If th favorable weather
continue for the next two or three weeks
we will get 17,000,000.0(0 for our crop. That
will keep the railroad busy. Th railroads
must order new car and rail. A general
quickening ot business will follow.. In my
opinion th forthcoming presidential elec
tion has been discounted earlier than usual
and It ha been reflected In the securities
market."

NEW YORK. Sept. i7.-St0ck had a gob(i
recovery today and the' vigorous" upward
movement was in face of some unfavorable
factor, or rather of realisation of some
unfavorable happenings that had been pre
viously acted upon In the market. The re
verse movement of prices usual- on such oc
casions was responsible In no small part
for the brisk recovery ' of' the day. Op
erator in stocks were very busy dlscussli g
the resumption of , the- proceedings In the
government suit agodnst. the . Standard Oil
company, but It was evident that the long
course of preparation' for this occurrence
has exhausted the requirements. The same
was true of tho disclosure In sworn testi

bear hav Ignored the significance of th
demand In the loan crowd so long as .they
have the weak spot In th metal securities
to help In forcing price downward. With
relief, today tor that weak spot the Influ

New York Metal exchange of 10 per pound.
Sentiment over the situation in th metal
market was appreciably -Improved, never

pressed that a level of more effective de
mand was being approached which gave
promise that the market would right Itself.

HOOS Speculator and shippers bought
a few ot the beet light hogs thla morning
at prices that looked about ateady, but
aside from that the general market eveu
on the lis lit hogs was (c lower than yes
terday. This would make the light hog
market a a whole steady to tc lower.
Buyer seemed to com to the conclusion
11 of a sudden that they hav been pay
ing too high prices for heavy bogs and
started out this morning with a firm do
termtnatlon to break prices. They were
pointing to th long string of heavy hogs
selling at Chicago for lees money than
the same weights were bringing at this
point. Sellers made a strong fight against
thj reduction, out In the end wer forced
to giv In. While some of the medium
weights did not sell over (c lower, the
general market on big heavy hog wa
safely lc lower:
and In some oases a much a 15c lower
It was the sharpest decline experienced In
a long time.
It will be noted that todav' drop makes
the range between good right hogs and
rough heavy wider than ever.

"And y shall romps the rtty, all ye
men of wr, and go round abo-rt th oily
once. Thu halt thou do t dy. aftd
' cvm priest shall bear before th ark
Jeven trumpet of ram' horn; ami th
seventh day ye ahall compas th city
1 seven times and the priest shall blow with
j th trumpet.
' "And tt Shalt come to pes, that when
they make a long blast with th rams'
I horn and when ye hear th sound f th
trumpet, all th peopl shall ahotit with a
! great shout and the walls of th rtty shall
rail down flat and the people shall ancerrd
up every man straight befor him,"
Thl was the way the scripture 1fl tt
would be fulfilled, and thl I th way It
waa fulfilled according to th Bible.
The way It wa enacted at Vinton street
park Monday night, and th way It will
happen for the rest of th week waa In
terfiling and In th main consistent, the
deviation being uch were necessary
to giv the spectacular effect . "Til
Siege of Jericho," owned and Controlled
by the n. E. Gregory Fireworks company,
was the title and them of a mammoth
pyrotechnic production put on fqr th ftrat
time In Omaha at Vinton Street park. Th
producer have been practically con
sistent in carrying out th story
of the selge a set forth tn Blbl
history, and the painting, costumes
nd everything I carried out with a pre
cision which leave a most satisfactory
feeling In the mind of the spectator. A
huge production has been built aronnd th
main theme and the twentieth century Im
agination Is brought out by som of th
sidelight which hare been Inserted.
Of course, Mr. Gregory' production would
have little of the spectacular to It tf It
followed closely "1he line of history.
Therefore, while Joshua and the army of
the children of Israel under him marched
around the walled city once a day for six
daya and seven time on th Seventh day,
blowing trumpet and shouting, th Gregory
host do less marching and Instead of
trumpet introduce th deafening canorl
adlng which accompanies the falling of the
walla,
City Loeka Reallstla.
Tho spectacle open with a panorama of
the city ot Jericho spread out befor th
view with an exactness that causes at
one wonderment and admiration. Th
camp of the Israelites I shown, and two
pie are sent Into the city to gat plans and
specifications to be used when th city 1
attacked. They enter and escape from the
wlndowa of Rahab th harlot. With thl
Information the hot of Israel are ready
to attack the city, nd when th seren
trumpet are sounded by the seven priest
snd the hosts hav marched around the
wall of th city In accordance with the
orders of the Lord, the walla ot th city
are aeen to tumble and Jericho I lost.
The armed men enter the city and put to
rout the inhabitant and th entire city
Is burned a only a Gregory know how to
burn one. Th city waa burned Monday
night with auch vigor that th explosion
wer heard over the entire neighboring city
of Omaha and peopl wondered what attll-
I lery waa attacking the city.
. A splendid vaudeville exhibition was
given between time, which took very much
the form of a clrcu. Olos brothers called
forth applause with their representations
of ancient masterpieces. Alldeen'a Austra
lian act on the horlsontal bars also took
the eye of th most of th spectator. De
Covey brother gave a moat skillful exhi
bition of what two skilled athlete can do
with no paraphernalia of any kind. Prof.
Flnka was the hit of the evening with
hi comedy tunt with two trained donkeys.
These were trained to punch th punching
bag and do all sorts of things.
The peat show wa the firework and too
much could not be said In praise of th
magnificent design which were .worked
out In color of fire. Beside all th old
time and popular brand of sky. Illumina
tions, many new contrlvancea were exhib
ited which at . once seemed to strike th
popular accord. The how I so big It will
hav to be aeen .to be appreciated. ' Com
fortable seat hav been prepared for
thousands, a huge platform being con
constructed In front of the grandstand.
George Oreen and hi band furnished tho
music.
