AMERICAN SMELTTN0 IS LOWER Restarts at Derreaaes In Railroad Faralaga Are Partly OaTaet hr Improvement In t nrreney gltnatlon. NEW YORK. Jan. 30 The stock market seemed Indisposed to move far In either direction today, the many wavering of the early part of the day giving way to marked dullness until the sudden decline Just before the closing. The actual oc currence of events antic ipated by specula tive buying la likely to lead to heavy sell ing to take profits. That such selling was In moderate volume today might be partly attributable to the large amount, of realis ing effected during the laat week. The conclualve evidence furnlahed by Satur day's phenomenal bank statement of the rapid rtroarre toward a condition of prac tical redundancy of the money market wa clearly an event of schedule In the list of hopes realised. There has been consider able previous speculation, also, based on the expectation that the government au thorltlea would permit a modus vlvendl for the coal-carrying railroads pending the judicial ascertainment of the validity of the law requiring the divestment of their ownership of the coal properties. Tlie confession of this expectation on Saturday was calculated tn Invite realizing sale ly speculative buyer of the coal stocks, and theae stock were mainly affected by Bell ing. Henlde these technical reactionary cause In the market there were several elements of positive depression with which the market had to contend. American Smelting broke with some wlldness In the early dealings and again at the close and Its weakness waa accompanied by goaulp reparding the eourc of the selling calcu lated to aggravate the sentimental effect of the eplaode. The-statement of earnings for December of the Baltimore & Ohio waa Impressive for several reasons. Coming as the first of the large systems to make returns for that period. It was not a cheerful rndex of the general showing Itkely to be made by other companies. It significance waa enhanced by the fact that only a small Increase In tha ooeratlna cost flsured In the result, which waa primarily due to the falling off In the grosa returns. The state ment of the president of the company ac companying the report that H5 per cent of the falling off In gross earnings wa In connection with the ateel Industry touched another phase of the present situation on which speculative aentiment Is always sen sitive. The restating power of the market aeemed to be negatively Indicated by the fact that Baltimore A Ohio and the I'ntted Statea Steel stocka were affected only In a trifling degree by this Incident. On the other hand, the market wa sluggish In renpondlng to some of the factors of posi tive strength. A strong sustaining Influ ence was offered in the absorption of Southern Pacific on a rising scale. Penn sylvania responded temporarily to the ac tion of the Pennsylvania supreme court against the validity of that states 2-cent passenger fare law. A decision of a fed eral court in Missouri against the state's effort to penalise the transfer of suits by foreign corporations from state to fed eral courts was made something of as evidence of the judicial safeguards against wrongful measure against corporations. Some improvement In confidence over the future of business was reported owing to the easing of the money situation. The fall In rates for time loans te 6 per cent for all periods not reported shows an easier condition of the money market than existed any time the whole of last week. It was not until the last half hour of the day's session that the doubtful fluctuation of stock gve way to positive weakness. Bond were Irregular. Total sales, par value, $3,820,000.

In the language of the yard, there wa a world of poor cattle on sale this morning, with the usual result when such conditions prevail, thst there was a general lack of Ufa and snap to the trade. It wss almost impossible to find a load of docent killing cattle In the yards this morning, the supply of beef steers consist ing of common to medium gradea of warmed up cattle, just tha kind that buy ers do not care for. Hence it waa not sur- nrrslna; that the trade was very slow and dull from start to flnlah. Had there been any good cattle of consequence the feeling was mat tney wouta nave comrnanaea steady prices but on the kind of oattle here the market waar any where rfoiu Weak to 10c lower, according to tha quality And slow at that. Packers evidently had their minds 'made up this morning to buy the cow stuff lower than laat week and first bids were along that line. Later on,' as It became apparent that there waa a good shipping demand, the market firmed up and good cow stuff Sold In about the same notches as late last week. Stuff that shippers did not bid on waa rather slow and weak from lack ot competition. The varda were full of Ilarht atockers. a good many of them on the trashy order. As price on ngni came were pretty man last week. It was not at all aurprlalng that buyers took advantage of the situation to force prices downward. To be more exact, the market really declined on account of lie own top heavlneas and from the lack of buying support. Good feeders, on the other hsnd, were not especially plentiful, and salesmen who happened to have what buy ers wanted figured that they got last week's prices.

That Is the better loads of hogs such as buvera selected sold largely at 14. 264 4. 30. aa agslnat a bulk oa Saturday of $4.2ku) IS. There were not very many loads above $4.30, but there was a top aa high as 34 s74, ss against tna top on fat u May of $4 iC4. A piece of a load sold up to $4.40. The llxhter and less desirable loads wers very much neglected and after the better stuff had ciutnged hands the market slumped off very unexpectedly. Not only waa an ine aavance ot ine morning lost, but tn a good many caaea buyer were bid ding even lower than last week's close on the lighter hogs especially.

Camobell Basinet Youngaon et at. Appeal, Kearney., Injunction allowed. Let ton. J. 1. Generally where th determination or a matter haa been committed to a par ticular administrative or legislative board or officer and no appeal is provided for from such decision, its order or deter mination Is final and will pot be Subject to collateral attack. ... f . .. 2. In a proceeding to establish drain age ditch. If the county board possesses Jurisdiction1 and authority to act In tho premises. Injunction will not lie on ac count of mere Irregularities In the exer cise of the power conferred. I. The doctrine of strict con struct ton of statutes In derogation of common right . Is not to be so unreasonably extended as to hamper the execution of public enter prises designed for tha general welfare, but st the same ttma property rights of Individuals are not to bo Interfered with unless the power to do so Is plainly con ferred by the law. 4. The drainage act ' of 1881 confers tha power upon county authorities to create drainage districts for the purpose of draining "marsh or swamp lands" alon and does not confer power to change the channel or divert tha) flow of running streams or natural surface water drains for tha purpose of rolleving the lands of riparian proprietors lower down ths stream from periodical overflows In sea sons of freshet. 8. The term "marsh or swamp lands' as used in said act has a wider significance than th terms "msrshes" or "swamps." The power Is conferred by this act to drain lands which are not, strictly speak ing, "marahes" or "ifimjii" but .which are "ma rah or swamp lands," meaning thereby lands Which are so situated aa to be rendered difficult or Incapable of ucceaaful cultivation by reason of rs tslnlng In th soil or carrying on tha sur face an excesslv quantity of water dur ing certain portions of tha year, oven though st other times they may be solid, dry and firm as lands In general. . t. In considering an amendatory or sub. stltuted statute It la proper to consider th provisions of the Isw which waa re pealed In connection with the law which takes Its place. In order to ascertain the legislative intent, and all provisions of the original statute which ara not car ried forwsrd Into or repeated in ths new law are annulled by tha repealing stat ute. . 7. In order to ascertain the proper mean ing of a statute, later as well as earlier legislation upon th asms subject may be referred to. All existing act should b considered and a subsequent ststuto mar often aid In ths Interpretation' of a prior one. 8. I'nder the facts set forth In the opin ion. Held, thst the County board of Kearney county Is without Jurisdiction to chsng the channel and divert the waters of the streams mentioned In tha opinion from their natural flow for the purpose of preventing overflows, nor has It th suthorlty to take part of the HalntifTs land against his will for the purpose of draining the lands embraced within th proposed drainage district.
