NEW YORK STOCK MARKET Further Reduction of Short Interest Main Influence of Day. UPWAED MOVEMENT RESUMED Official Declaration of Strike on llarrlman Railroads Vlrtaally Wlthoat K.ffect Mediae la Foreign Kxchange, NEW TORK. Sept. 30 -Further reduc tion of the short Interest was the ninln sprlng. which propelled the stock mar ket today, and the rise which waa Inter rupted yesterday by Italy a declaration of war, was resumed. Evidence that the short element had engaged In more cov ering was abundant. The strength dis played by United States Steel was a logical result, the ahort Interest In this stock apparently having reached unusu ally largn proportions. United States Steel closed at (US. a gain of 1 Va pointa on the day and 10 points from the low level of the recent break. Other atocka varied as much. Official declaration of the strike on the Marrlman railroads was virtually without effect. There wsa a further decline today In foreign exchange rates, which are now nearly fiO.poInu lower than two days ago. This decline, after several weeks in which the tendency almost uniformly upward, was attributed to the heavy Influx of cotton bills an to the cessation of liquidation of American stocks for European account by the local market. An Immediate Influx toward lower rates was the engagement yesterday of nearly 31,l,OJ0 gold for shipment to Taris. A small loss In surplus reserve was recorded In, the bank statement. The actuul table, which reflected the engage ment of gold for shipment abroad, dis closed a loss of 32.670.000. American Tobacco prices showed slight heaviness, but the bond market other wise was firm. Total aalea par value, 3l.62H.OnO. United States bonds were un changed on call, for the week.

For the week receipts foot up S8,lo3 head, being the largest thua far this year, but still show ing a falling off of 4,u(J0 head aa com pared with the same week of last year. The receipts for the month foot up 127,ouO head, which 1b a falling off of 45,000 head as compared with the same month lasl year and the smallest of any September for several years. While the market on beef steers showed a Uttlo weakness on some days the loss hus been recovered and at the close ot the week beef steers are very close to steady with a week ago. The best corn fed ulcers here brought fi'.SO, which Is within 10c of the extreme high price of the year. The trade on most days wad reasonably active and the market in a good, healthy condition. The chief feature of the week's trade In cows and heifers was the Black de mand for the better grades, due to the fact that packers were securing a lat'se supply of cheap btef steers, which took the place of the cows. As a result of this the better grades of cbwb and hell ers are around lo&lSc lower for the week, on the other hand, the common to me dium kinds of cows known aji cannera and cutters were In active demand every day, and at the close of the week ate fully steady with one week ago. Stockers and feeders were in the hear demand that they have been thus far tins year, tne salea of that kind of cattle being heavier than usual. Still the coun try was not Inclined to allow prices to advance very much, and in spite of the active market prlcea are not over 10yiuc higher than one week ago.

HOGS Sellers In the hog yards used supply figures as a bullish argument, but their efforts were not very successful. Prices ruled a nickel hUher early, but packers agreed to stronger prices only under protest and movement scaleward was at no time very active. Sales made at the extreme cloae carried figures that showed little, If any, improvement over those of yesterday. Yard estimate called for only forty loads, and the actual offerings were largely on the packing order. Nothing really choice in the way of bacon ani mals waa received wsi which to make a representative top. Shippers were fair buyers, from a per centage view point, purchasing about right loads of the better quality animals on outside orders. Good packing gradea sold largely at 8620 and bulk of business waa at 36 20tf6.26. The best bacon weighta on sale landed at 36.30, identical with yesterday's high price. During the week the main feature of the trade was a steadily declining scale of prices. The Blight reaction of yester day, together with today's strength, leaves the trade just about S5ff4oo under the market a week ago. Supplies proved seasonably moderate and the shipping demand on most days lacked both tone and volume. Receipts of hogs for the month of Sep tember are In round numbers 119.000 head, showing a gain of about 17.000 head over the starvation recelpta of September of last year, and small Increases over the corresponding months of 1909 and 19in, but there Is a falling off ot 33,000 bead as compared with l!aJ7.

Nothing was held over from yesterday and the new estimate called for only a handful of stock, not enough to test values. Final count on the week's supply gives a total that easily exceeds the expectancy at laat week a close. In the neighborhood of 145000 bead of sheep and iambs were received In all, most guesses a week ago placing the run from UO.uOO to 126.UJO head. Last week's marketing amounted to only 13t,uu0 head, while receipts this week roiled up s tolsl of over 16o,uuu head. Despite this apparent decrease ship ments were better distributed through- j out the month and the present September tecoru, nio..v neau. stanas Shove every other September total ever made lo the history of the South Omaha market. Hulk of recent supply consisted of lambs, mostly In feeder flesh, and the demand on most days had healthy tone. Everything cleared with lltle selling ef fort, Tuesday's session being the . only slow one. Fat lambs broke lira 15c at that time but these losses have since been recovered and the trade Is closing just about Htcariv. Fancy lambs are quotable as high as K-9", but the ordinary good classes are selling around 36.60 80 Straight strings of fat lambs were rare exceptions and packing supplies were usually sifted out of the sorting gate. Fat sheep ruled firm from the start and show no quotable changes aa com pared with a week ago. Toppy fat ewes are still moving around f3.66 and choice wethers touched the 34.00 mark on two or thre occasions. Yearling trade was rather uncertain, due largely to a meager supply of "breakers." Business In feeders kept Its usual form and current valuea are pegged fully as high as those of a week ago.

Iowa and Nebraska orders were the mains supports, tidy ewea selling around 82.90U3 00, with the better kinds of feeder lambs moving at and above 86.15. Limit on feeder lambs remains at 86.30 and anything selling below 85.00 Is not very respectable.

BIG BOOST OR BEEF TEA Old Reliable Xoarlshment for the Sick nestored to Its High Estate. Avaunt all detractors of beef tea., for Dr. Thomas Darlington In the current number of the New York Medical Journal makes a demonstration of Its efficacy which Is so convincing that the editor of the publication cannot withhold the meed of praise. Dr. Darlington ts profesaor of sanitary science at Fordham university and for merly was president of the board of health. Time was when beef tea and broths were esteemed highly by physi cians, and then came a race of practition ers who knew not these homely aids to convalescence, and said, "Really, beef tea Is of no use at all." The aromatlo fluid, disowned and scoffed at by the medical fraternity for years, still was consumed by millions of gallons In secret, for the old-fashioned mothers Insisted upon it. Founding his Investigations upon the re eent experiments of Dr. Parlow, Dr. Dar lington haa made studies of the stomach of men and animals, which he declares demonstrate that beef tea and meat broth generally Initiate a rapid digestion and promote the assimilation of food. The function of thin soup before a dinner also Is explained, for all light meat broths are shown to be of great dletelc value. He finds that bread or white of eggs and va rious other substances which are high In nutritive value will lie for a long time In the stomach without any appearance of change, merely because they do not excite the flow of the gastric juice, Initiator of the digestive process. "It is useful to know." continues Dr. Darlington, "that when bread or egg al bumen are eaten without appetite, water, or, still better, broth or meat extract may be used to play the part of the Igniting material." Dr. Darlington's analysis shows In beef tea a large proportion of various chemical salts which play an important part in the protein metabolism and determine chemical changes which are necessary to life Itself. He also finds that the gelaUne, although It has not all the attributes of a tissue builder. Is of real value on account of Its ready digestibility and because It Is a protein sparer. "Whatever may be lacking In broths," concludes the physician, "In the way of energy yielding food material is supplied readily In a combination with other ap propriate substances. It Is not to be for gotten, however, that the healthy diges tion and complete assimilation of such energy yielding foods requires an admix ture of those qualities which we have seen are contributed by the constituents of meat broths." Commenting on Dr. Darlington's article the editor of the medical Journal states that henceforth the physician may advise beef tea and tea broths generally with a clear conscience and scientific satisfac tion. "They have triumphed over their enemies and detractors," 'he says, "and will resume their honored station on the Invalid's tray as unapproachable adju vants to digestion and assimilation, add ing one more sample to the list of reme dies founded on crass emprtclam and find ing at last a common scientific basis for their realson d'etre."

The num ber of French aluminum factories has Increased In the region of the Alps, espe cially In the Department of Savole, where there are six establishments. With the two other French factories It Is estimated that the total output ts considerably above 25.000 tons annually. The reduction plant established in TSS9 at Neuhausen In Swltserland haa . had almost successful existence. Starting with an annual production of forty tons ot aluminum. It turned out no less than 2,621 tons In the first nine months of 1910, val ued at more than fS40,00a The company has several branches, all of which are operating successfully. Its stock has never yet paid less than 13 per cent; in 1904 It paid 26 per cent on a par value of 1.000 franca (8193). The Swiss control of the aluminum market, which had existed for several years, passed away with the opening of the American factories at Niagara, says Consulsr and Trade Reports. Neither Switzerland nor France possesses such sources of electrical energy as the I'nlted States. Negotiations were begun a year ago with the view of limiting the produc tion of aluminum and keeping up the prices, but owing to the attitude of the American producers the movement has not been successful up to this time. . Aluminum has become Indispensable la the construction ot automobiles, dirigible balloons and aeroplanes. It la employed, also In paper decorations and lor wrap ping purposes. It haa been found ot enormous advantage also in the textile Industry. Combined with silk It makes a brilliant fabric, which ran be given any desired color and which cannot ba excelled. for making ceremonial costumes and theatri cal wardrobes. In addition to the ordi nary uses It is also employed in the man- '. ufacture of reticules, scarfs and various articles of use and ornament, and be cause of the high price of copper It ha been largely used as a substitute for that metal in the manufacture of electrical-cables. SEES THE EIGHTH WONDER rnyalelan Who Lost Ills Sight lajj World Tonr Has Ills Eyes Restored. "I have seen the seven natural wonders) of the world, and the seven meohanical wonders ot the world, and now I see the greatest surgical and scienutlc wonder oE my life the recovery of my eyesight." It waa after going out on the streets yesterday for the first time In eight years unaccompanied by a guide who, by the1 way, for four years has been his de-; voted wife that Dr. H. L. Chapln ot Cleveland mado this assertion. Through the marvelous operation per formed last week by Dr. Arnold Knapp upon the eyes of the Cleveland surgeon, f Dr. Chapln owes his return as he char acterises lt "back to nature." It was through his great love of nature that he lost his eyesight, for It was), caused through the glaring light on the' sands of the Assyrian desert, where he had gone shortly after his graduation, from college on his inspection of the "seven wonders of the world." j "I was on my way to see the Hanging) Gardens of Babylon, and like all strong, enthusiastic fellows out ot college, I dis regarded all the ordinary precaution that older, more seasoned travelers take,, and would neither wear the tarboush or! the turban not even dark glasses. Eight-: en months later I became blind through! an attack of Irldo syclytis, brought about through that desert sun." It waa after having had the first ter-' rlble attack that finally brought on blind-' ness that Dr. Chapln, who is 37 years old, met and married the woman who now' bears his name. During their courtship he told her much of his travels, and one of the promises to her when they became) betrothed was that Bhe should go with.' him on a trip around the world. 1 He became so blind that she had to lead him about, but despite that 1iandl-: cap they took the promised trip, and both declared yesterday that nothing In the years to come could take away from the wonderful, experience. "I have never known a person with, such an accurate and retentive memory. and never once In the 30,000 miles or mora that wo wended our way, in every known1 vehicle of civilization or barbarism, did)' he ever direct me wrongly," she said. - ' "And never once did she make a mls-i take in my directions," the doctor cour teously added. "But when tho bandages were taken)! off after the operation, last week, did, you expect that your eyesight would, really be recovered?" he waa asked. "I had every confidence in Dr. Knapp, but I did not have any mora confidence)' than he did, and In a case of such dell-! cate surgery, snd of such rare opera tion, no one could know definitely tho' outcome. But .when I actually did see, I and I realized what had come to me, my1 eyes filled. I was again blinded by tears, for it semed too good to be true," said1 ths physician. New York American, j 'I PROPOSED CALENDAR REFORW Change In Months and Holidays, I'roposrd by llrltlah Parlia mentary Bill. J Some novel proposals are contained its; the fixed calendar bill presented by Sir. Henry Dalzlel and supported by Mr. j Wllkle, Mr. Prlngle and Munroe Fergu son. The memorandum accompanying; the text of the bill. Issued today, ex-1 plains that the measure purposes to sub- stitute for the present Irregular calendar' a fixed calendar having regular periods,! ot which the week is a common measura. It differs in some Important feature from the calendar reform bill Intro-1 duced on March 16, IMS,, by Robert) Pearce. That bill sought to make the' months as uniform In length as possible, 1 but as a difference in this respect Is un-' avoidable In a year with twelve months it ts thought better to increase that dif ference so as to allow of the week be ing a common measure of all the months, This- arrangement makes tt possible for each month to begin on a Sunday and 1 end on a Saturday. The memorandum points out that, si- I though the making of a definite and reg ular difference between the lengths of ; the months does not Introduce any new I olement into the meaning of the word "month," seeing that the months already llffer in length. It haa been thought well , to codify the present rule determining monthly periods and to make a rule re- , gardlng the computing ot monthly sal- arlea. The bill provides that the condi- 1 lions of labor on New Year day and j Leap day, and also ' the remuneration , thereof shall conform as far as possible ' to what prevails on Sundays. In meeting the desire for a fixed date J for each of the moveable holy days tt has been thought sufficient to -iact a 1 fixed date only for Easter, whi- h Is to be upon -April 15, as all the others are ' calculated from the date of Easter. As In Mr. Pearce's bill and In the calendar . act of 1751. provision Is made regarding J the comings of age and other events 1 which may be affected by the passing ! of this bill. , The bill. If passed by Parliament, will not become operative until the crown de- ! cldes that sufficient International con- j currence has been secured. ' A table giving the proposed fixed cal- j endar shows that the months of Janu- 1 ary, February. April. May, June, July. I August, October and November would each consist of twenty-eight days, while , the remaining months of March, June, September and December would each have thirty-five days. New Year day is j set apart, thus bringing the total of days ' up to the requisite number of 365, whiie 1 for leap years a special day Is set apart as Leap day. which Is to be lntercalcu- ! lated between the lat day of June and j the first day of July as reconstituted by 1 the bill. A clause of the bill lays it down that ' ths New Yesr day and Leap day shall neither of them be accounted days of ths f week, and shall not, except where spe- dally mentioned or provided for, be held j to be included in any computation ot , days, but shall otherwise be public ba holidays.
