tret In tins stork market was somewhat
larigjia and Tiuctuated slugciehlv and in
decisively. The perceptible decline of the
forenoon was remarsed at an effort to
appraise the harm te values which ha
resulted from the calamity in Italy. Opin
ions vary as to bow far the loss of prop
erty Involved may be reflected in the move-
ments of the securities msrket. Tb esti
mate yet received throw no light on the
amount of property damage which ha
been done. In the caae of tke enormou
loses bv the San Kranclaco earthquake,
which resulted in an estimated arirrezate
of loUO.UKi.tMii, distinguished economists are
oulte generally agreed that sn Important
eneci was produced in the bringing about
of the subsequent exhsustion of capital
supplies, which wss a prime factor in pre
cipitating the financial crisis of last year
' uir u miea DiaL&a.
There was little else of consequence In the
day- s news. Iieals involving minor rsil
rosda continoed to circulate in the rumor
form. The American Pmeltmg stork made
another dtp in recognition of the formidable
competition produced in the new corpora
tion and Amalgamated Copper moved In
vropathy, the threatened competition being
conaidered to represent a rivalry between
mieresis in these two oorporstlons. j he
November net earnings statements of the
two Harrlman Pacific railroad were re
ceived with moderate aa tlsf act ion. the ad
vantage In the comparison with last year
being, in fact, decidedly leas than in some
of the preceding statements. A moderate
tailing ott tn gross earning was shown tn
both reports, compared w nb November of
last yesr. and the cut In operating cost,
also, was less drastic thsn has been ex
hibited In some of the earlier statements.
New bond Issues continue to suoceed each
other in announcements for future flots-
tions. present sales to bankers or Intended
offerings for public subscriptions. Money
and exchange rates showed no important
change and the net effect on price of
stocks of the day's varioua movement
proved trivial.

there was no material change in any direc-,
Hon. The market aa a whole was devoid
of new or interesting feature and in con

Beef nceri were la fair request aa usual

season ' In the morning, prices paid were
generally about steady with yesterday,
there being, as noted aoove. no - great
change either up or down. Most of the of
ferings changed hands in pretty fair sea
son and the market as a whole was aaua
factory to selling interests. . .
Cows and heifer were also In rood de
mand and they, too, commanded steady
prlcea the mom of the stuff changieg
hands in very fair season. The supply was
not overly large and ha cot been any day
so far this week.
There were only a few stockers and feed
era here, but there waa sufficient demand
10 maintain good steady prices, and the
market a a whole wa In about the same
condition aa waa detailed yesterday.

day. Good sheep were also in aemand and
a bunch of etghiy-lwo-pound Neoreaaa ted
western yrarnngs (burr ) brought .

This martet nas been very poorly supplied
wiui good wether and yeaning sine th
present advance started In. so ttiat the
market has nol been very well tested on
that kind of stulf, and it haa been more
or less of a guess bow high a really choice
bunch of wether or yearling would sell.
The general run of medium kinds of sheep
and ewes were generslly quoted aa about
steady, without any noteworthy change in
any direction,
'i here were a few feeder scattered
throuah the barn, but not enourb to ex

of a market There were no especially
new developments In the trade.

From report which ar gaining circula

a cat's-paw to pull But from tb fire
for ismi syndicate of North Carallna
bondholder and will use th old Taylor
defalcation as bait for their purpose.
Just who 1 back of th move remains to
yet be revealed. Tb report 1 that Tay
lor 1 to turn over to the state a block
of North Carolina bond to make up the
deficit from hi defalcation a atat
treasurer, and in return is to receive cer
tain property secured by th atat a
result of such defalcation.
Any such present of bonds mean that
th state is to bring suit to teat th
validity of th eame, and may or may
not win after tha expenae of th suit.
At the earn time th holding syndicate
would sit back and reap th benefits If
the state should win in any suit brougnt
Less than two year ago a bender of
fl, 001 08 of such aecurilles wa made
to th atate oa agreement that ult be
brought to collect, but tb offer was
turned down by Governor Crawford. Sev
eral year ago the atat did accept a gift

the benefit. At the session of two year
ago Senator Dillon introduced a bill to
return the money to North Carolina, but
tt failed to paaa. Th money ao aecarad
