dom-Playing Hot and Cold With the
Wall Street Sharks
NEW YORK, Oct. 7.--Secretary Window ar.
rived in the city from Boston at 5 o'clock last
evening and went to the Fifth Ayenae hotel.
The expectation that he was to be in the city
attracted large number of Wall street men
to the hotel. The interest in the secretary's
movements and expressions are largely due to
the fact that a Boston paper stated he did not
propose to alter the announced programme of
The treasury department The genuineness of
this statement was both denied and affirmed
during the day by bulls and bears respectively.
The various reports had their influence ON
the market before the secretary had finished
his dinner last evening. Wall street financiers
pegan 10 send up their cards. Among those
received hrst were VIM. Dowd, president of
the bank OF North America, and w. P. Bush,
president of the Marine bank of Buffalo. who
are also respectively president and yice-presi-
dent OF the Hannibal & st. Joe Railway Com
pany, and have been the reputed managers of
the corner in common stock of that
company. Other callers received were
i. q. Everett, president of the Second
National bank of Cleveland j. II. Ellis, of
Winslow, Laner q Co., and E. P Perkins,

Window declined to be interviewed last
evening. He said he had barely glanced at the
interview alleged to have been held with him
in Boston, and was not prepared to say whether
it was genuine or not.
Russell Sage said Window had expressed
himself as willing to use the funds of the
treasury to the best advantage, and he was
disappointed in not receiving more bonds
under the call for S2,0O0OOO of continued 6
per cents. He did not say he would change
the programme already announced. Win

he Enormous Cost of Farm Fences-!Son,
Interesting Figures.


Although the fences in an agricultural
community are the most onerous tax
which the farmer has to bear, and the
subject has attracted the attention of ag-
rieultural societies and journalists and
the public press generally, no. systematic
effort has been made under the census
now in process of compilation to reach
actual data as to the cost of the same.
In the schedule of the recent census an
inquiry was inserted to ascertain the out
lay for building and repairing farm fences
during the year 1879. A portion of this
work has been tabulated, covering eleven
States in different sections of the country
The following is the result.
Alabama. S 1,4O2, ,6O9 Florida. ....S 366,1SO
Arkansas. 1879, IA Georgia -. 1,S25, ,625

Colorado. S16,603 Louisiana. l, ,4S2, ,121
Connecticut 643,S75 8. Carolina 917,OOe
| An attempt was made by the Agricult-
ural Department in 1871 to estimate the
total value of the fences of the country
and the annual cost of repair, and the
returns on which the estimates were
based were not sufficiently large or relia-
BILE to give the figures much more value
than careful guess. 1t has been esti-
mated that the cost of the fences was
greater than the entire value of the live
stock, horses, mules, cattle, sheep, and
swine they were built to guard against,
and writer of considerable experience
and reputation has stated that the fence
tax on the farms in the state of New
York was three and half times great
er per acre than the state, county, and
township taxes upon the land. Pos
sessing this importance the full statistics
when completed will be likely to chal-
lenge the attention of agriculturists, and
