CALLING OF LOANS BEGINS Gilt-Edged ecarltles Ar Thrown Market at Low Prices aad Are Rsifst for Cask ay Hoard lag Investor. NEW YORK. Oct. 29 The banks ;m serted their Influence determinedly, and In ine eiutiation of hollers rf securities on margin the danger is over. Tha an nouncement of the dissolution ot tne bsnkers' rool yesterday, whicii had ro vlaed funds last week to save the stock market from demoralisation, was accom panied by broad Intimations that the pool had not been Intended to bolster up spec ulation or to attempt anything like a revival of strength In stocks by the use of borrowed monev. Advice hss been conveyed to stock brokers Interested not to be misunderstood that the banks would frown upon any marginal operations in eiocKs. brokers as a rule have refused to accept orders for such transactions. The market Is thus reduced to exceedingly narrow dimensions, operations being re stricted practically to the buying of se curities outright for cash. The lending of the money of the bankers 'pool last weea seems to have been done with n. purpose to save the general situation. Some readlustment' is now in progress end some accounts are beiifg forced out that seem to have been carried over last week with this condition attached. Call ing of loans was on Quite a large scale. Vvith the Duylng demand limited to those with cash resources in hand, the effect on prices was not surprising, but wss more or less aisiuroing. inn lines or n discrimination exercised against borrow ers was not clearly denned by any an nouncement on behalf or tne bankers, nor was It indicated by the character or the stocks, which were being sold out, these including high-grade and active stocks for the mum imrl. The policy pursued by the banks has In mind the wider effects on the situatloi In the attraction offered to cash invext- ment by the low prices of securities. This attraction was operative today both for home and foreign account. The con siderable volume of the day's mar,et, while It marked the severe sacrifices of coerced borrowers, may be safely asbume.l also as a mefure of absorption tiy out right cash buying, since practically no other class of buying was feasible in the dearth of banking credits to tsHe vp purchases on margin. Buying of this kind Is relied upon as an Important key to the unlocking of cash resources ' whlh have gone into hoarding. The pun has of securities for foreign account also is a material factor in furthering the con trol on the International exchange which may enable additional imports of gold to be made. The rise In the discount rate of the Bunk of Germany by a full 1 per cent. Indicated the de termination to opposed withdrawals cf gold from that market. The Hunk f England was reported as discounting nothing less than 6 per cent, wnlch would Indicate an intended drastic alteration In the present 4 4 per cent minimum dis count rate. There was a cancellation jf. part of one of yesterday's gold engage ments and the recovery in foreign ex change today was on a demand attributed to covering against some of yesterday s gold engagements. Another rise in the price of copper was the meabure of the additional buying 'for export. There was a sharp reaction from the violent early advices In the London price of jopptr. It is noteworthy that notwithstanding the famine In this money market there are SUil outstanding 15,20,960 of government 4 per cent bonds which were redeemable on July 1 last and which ceased to beur Interest on that date. A cut in prices r,t meat by western packing-housei waa tin Incident of the readjustment going on to Incite ' new demand for products. The appearance of some Supplies of money tit the Htock exchange late In the day In duced some rallies, but the day's net de clines are severe. onas were weak. Total sales, par value, 23.426.000. United Ktates bonds were uncnangea on call. Number of sales and quotations on' the New York Stock exchange: sties. Hlrn. Ijow. C1m shove parity, but licrlin oflV-rd stock when the bsnk rate wss rlned, and with local liquidation progressing valu. s drooped. In the afternoon New York sold and In the absence of any upf.ort prices declined further and -lnsed weak. Can adian Pacific and Orarid Trunk were flat on disappointing railroad. Copper shares started wesk In sympsthy with Americans, recovered shsrply on the rue In the price of the metal, hut closed be low the nest quotation or wi aaj-. rui tlgners were dull. PARIS. Oct. 29.

In aacuuon 10 this number, however, there were quite a number of cattle carried over from yes terday, so that there was no shortage In the supply. In fact It would probably have been Just as well for sellers it receipts nau been even smaller. The feeling on the beef market was somewhat better than yesterday. Op erators, both buyers and sellers, seemed to have settled down to the opinion that the financial disturbance would soon dis appear and that everything would be all right In the end. Buyers were out in mo yards earlier than yesterday and were acting more as if thby really wanted the cattle. At the same time they were not disposed to pay any fancy prices and the tendency of the market was alow to lower, with prices anywhere from 10c to 26c lower than laat week, according to the kind of cattle. It might be added that yesieraay afternoon packers bought quite freely, cleaning up practically all the desirable cattle before the close last night. What has been said regarding beef steers would apply In most part to cows and heifers. Buyers all seemed to want a few and were looking for supplies In reasonable season In the forenoon, but the trade was nevertheless very slow and the tendency still lower. The fact Is that cows have suffered more decline than any other kind of cattle. They are ssfely 26o lower than last week's cloae, and -In a good manv caaea more than that. - The market on stockers and feeders waa very uneven, there being a wide spreaa in prices for cattle of the same quality. It in fact, a rood deal a matter of luck as to just where a seller could land with a bunch of feeders. If he happened to have something that Just suited a buyer, he could get out In pretty good shape, while on the other hand he might have the hardest kind of work trying to dispose of another lot of equally good cattle. As com pared with the high time prices looked very low and parties desiring to fsed cattle could fill their yards to very good ad vantage. it uiii h well for the country to thor oughly understand that while the feeling at the yards is that financial difficulties will soon be overcome and that the trade will resume normal proportions, still there Is a disposition on move slowly, feelln Quotations on ca corn sfHEEP Receipts of aheep this morning wsre the lightest for a Tuesday that they have been In a long time and yet there were more than enough to supply all the requirements of the market. The trade In many respects was a duplicate of yester day s and what was aald yesterday re garding the general situation In the sheep trade would apply In the main today. It waa a waiting markei, packers holding back and not trying to do very much aside from the purchase of a few little buncnes required to fill special orders. Thus the forenoon passed with the trsde extremely dull on all kinds of killers. It Is very evi dent from the remarks of buyers that they are disposed to continue following a very conservative policy until financial matters quiet down.. This seems to be the poitcy n it only here, but at all other mavket points, so that shippers will gain notiilng by Ig noring this market and sending their stock eisewnere. While there were a few cour try visitors in tne barn this morning, tlis trane in feeders waa verv dull, with comparatively few people trying to buy. As a maiter of fact, prices ere very low; In faft, so low as to be extremely tempting, and It would seem as If It would be a good time for parties who were so anxious two weeks ago to secure feeders to nil up tnetr feed lots now at very much lower prices. The gen eral opinion among operators on the mar ket seems to be that the financial situa tion will clear up In the course of a few days and that the market will again take on Its old-time activity The fact remains, however, that at the present time the trade is very dull and the forenoon passed with comparatively little being accomplished. Along toward midday there waa more trading and In the end about all the de sirable stuff changed hands. Undesirable tub wushed, 28tt ;.-. Minneapolis drain Market.

It was loaded on the ckrs fioni wagons drawn by bull teams. We carried1 no passengers. Finally the road was ex tended to Orand Island, and tha train crew hated it because we were compelled to sleep In a straw atack st that place. The first freight the Union Pacific ever carried outside of its own'bullfilng material' was a mowing machine, shipped from' Omaha to North Bend In September, 186b. Shortly after that I helped make out tha first freight tariff sheet for the Union P- clflc. . ....-,.',) "Then we began handling freight, gt'Mia rate of one car load i day. . "I remember well the first day - w handled two car loads. It was a nig event. It waa loaded from wagons drawn by bull teams, and as we were pulling out one ot the bull got on the tracK and the whole train was ditched. That was the first wreck on the "Union Pacific. - I was on top' of a box car next to the chglne and wni thrown, to the ground and lit straddle of tho engineer's neck. He was laid: up for three weeks and reported to the superin tendent that he had been struck, by flu smoke stack. He never learned the truth. Wonderful Improvement ' lias 'been made I In the Union Pacific system since those days, and In tho country too. Omaha is a revelation to me, at 1 walk the streets and think of the days when I first "cams here." Mr. Shelby was promoted from oon- : auiior io general ireignt agent of thi j Union "t'aclfio In the early daya, and latct I left the road' to accept a similar position w4th the Northern Paolfle.
