printing, IN 1924, with movable types and

better prices, she will naturally get a
larger proportion of the crop. Buyers are
always plenty here, hence a shipper can
sell at once. This is something
different from other markets, and is not
without its influence on shippers. Amore
extended review of the grain markets is
reserved for our report of Monday.
Your representative called on Nathan
Corwith to learn if possible if there was
anything new in the financial complica-
ton of his son Gurdin who, it will be re-
called, has been sued for $4,000 by Will
V. Booth, an old friend and compan ion
of his. Mr.. Corwith said in reply to a
question that he had absolutely no person
al knowledge of the gambling affairs of his
son and young Booth, but as near as he
could learn from friends of both young
men Booth and his son had pooled their
issues in running a deal, that they
failed to make the fortune they antieipai-
ed. and that young Booth was
simply endeavoring to collect the
money he had lost, from
his son. The latter, he said, was in an
upper room suffering from serious attack
of cerebro spinal meningitis, which it was
more than likely would kill him, the result
of his misfortune. He had no idea that
his son had done anything dishonorable.
With respect to the insinuation that he had
been connected with the deal he said he had
nothing whatever to do with it and knew
nothing about it. Had he known that his
son was gambling as he was he would have
put stop to it. He did not consider him
self in the slightest degree liable for any
debts that his son had contracted in the
deal.

eased 4@A. Before noon there was an
other slight upward movement. In the af
ternoon decline of 4@14 ensued, ant
the feeling was not at all buoyant, al
though the market was quite active. st
Paul started out at 1os5s, touched 100
and closed at 1919. Northwestern began
the day at 1895, improved g and then
eased Off q. Rock Island lost 81 from it:
first quotation, 40. Western Union fel,
the afternoon dizziness severely, drop
ping 2B from its starting
point, sa15. Northern Pacific began and
ended the day at 1914, although
at one time selling IS higher. Omaha
opened at 575s and closed at 55A. Mani.
toba closed at 1442s or IS lower than its
first quotation. The first sale of Mime
apolis & st. Louis was at 80, the last al
315s. Nickel Plate started out at 33ss
but lost the fraction and cent to boot
Union Pacific closed with an equal decline
from los. There was less activity and
excitement than on yesterday, but the
buying for the long account reflected con-
fidence, and some of the brokers reported
more orders for stocks from outsiders
The early strength of the market induced
a number of belated bears to cover, and,
in some instances, to shift their positions
to the bull side. The causes heretofore
mentioned as operating to produce inn
provement are still at work, and seem to
be taking root with the general public.
Nothing but constant, unfaltering and
persistent push upward in prices can in
vite and secure the assistance of the out
side public. As things look at present the
success or non-success of the movement
rests upon the shoulders of Mr.. Vanderbilt.
who is unquestionably the only great out
and-out bull in the market. Mr.. Gould
may pretend to be one and so may Mr..
Keene or Mr.. Smith, but it is unquestion-
able that each of these gentlemen would.
without hesitation. dump his holdings
upon Mr.. Vanderbilt should the market
afford an opportunity for doing SO at a
profit. From present appearances it would
look as though Mr.. Vanderbilt would
shortly own everything in the shape of
railway securities
The advance in Union Pacific yesterday
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1882-12-17

has been due to the covering
of shorts and not to the buying of any pool,
as has been rumored. The fact is that
owing to the somewhat cloudy statements
in regard to earnings and the unskilful
management of its recent proposals for
borrowing money to pay Off the floating
debt, etc, there was distrust created in
regard to the stock, which, seems to have
not been warranted By the real condition.
But the feeling induced good deal of
short selling, which has to be covered now
that the general market has advanced, and
confidence in Union Pacific in >particular
has in a measure been restored. The deal
in Pacific Mail progresses among few
prominent individuals who are each largely
interested, but the public, outside of
these few, is not trading in stock
largely. 1t is estimated, however.
that complete change in the ownership,
control and connections of the Pacific
Mail is one of the probabilities of the near
future.
