MONEY AND COLLECTIONS.
The Former Obtaiuablc at lac Per
Cent, the Latter Improving.

Brsdstreet's, August 11th: THE
New York loan market continues to
exhibit symptoms of increasing &C.
tivity, the improved tone of specu.
lation naturally creating a better de
mand, though the supply of loanable
funds is ample for all requirements,
and the expected demand from the
interior in connection with the crop
movement makes itself felt only so far
as lenders are preparing to meet it.
On the Stock Exchange call loans
have been quoted at 2 per cent, but
the general range for bankers bal
ances on call is l@la per cent, and
banks and institutions lend freely at
the latter figure. Time money is
practically unchanged with both
limited offerings aud inquiry. Three
and four months loans are quoted at
1904 per cent. Commercial paper is
Inactive and steady, with higher
tendency in rates. Outside buyers of
paper are generally inclined to insist
on better figures, and city banks are
restricting their takings. Rates are
nominally 400 per cent for best
names and Endorsed bills receivable,
with single names and western notes
at from to 6 per cent.
"Mercantile collections are improv
ing at New Orleans, St. Joseph, kau-
sas City, Omaha and Chicago, but are
unsatisfactory at Burlington (1owa),
Detroit and Pittsbury. The move
ment of funds at interior points is
still to the country, which causes an
upward tendency in interes. rates at
the west. The New York stock
market has continued strong and
advancing on the favorable crop
prospects and the generally bulish
tone which this has given to specu-
lation. Bonds are active, and in
ves,ments in good demand. Money
at New York is in better demand,
though rates remain easy. Foreign
exchange is lower on increasing
offerings of commercial bills, an adj
vance of interest rates in London
having little strengthening effect.

DUCKS FOR TIE LAWYERS.

Dudley B. Smith, wealthy bust.
ness man of Co.tlandt, New York,
has filed claim against hs, deceased
grandmother's estate for SO, 7O2 ducks
1t seems that when about IS years old,
in June, 1866, he let his grandmother,
Mrs. Jeanette Smith, have three ducks
that he owned, under an alleged
agreement that whenever demanded
she should make return to him out of
the natural increase Of the flocks, at
the rate of two for one every second
year. Mrs. Smith retained the entire
increase over twenty years, until she
died in November, 1886. Now, in the
settlement of her estate the grandson
presents his claim for so, 7O2 ducks or
failing to return the fowls for the
equivalent in cash or so cents a duck,
amounting to the sum Of $l5,262.
His father, who is the administrator
OF the estate, promptly allowed the
claim. Other expectant heirs of the
grandmotker's property at once cu-
tered vigorous protest against the
administrators action and appealed to
Surrogate Easton of Tioga county,
who has jurisdiction in the case, to
reject the claim, aud thus there has
been begun lively contest in the
courts over the duck issue.

A Reporters Revenge

Notice has been taken of the Duke
OF Cambridge,s visit to Liverpool, bus
one remarkable episode of that visit it
nearly forgotten. A newspaper man who
was then in Liverpool gave GRAPHIC
descrip lion of it the other night. The
Duke of Cambridge, Mr.. Cardwell and
several other distinguished men were
10 dine with the Mayor at Town Hall.
Their speeches were expected to be of
European importance, and great in
terest attached to the occasion. Owing
to the great attendance. the Mayor
could find room for only one reporter.
There was much protest on the part of
the press, but it was of no avail. An
expert reporter named Murphy was Sc
lected for the work, and arrangements
were made to supply all England with
the report which he was TO dictate. But
Mr.. Murphy was treated with the ut
most discoutesy by the Town Hall
officials. He was placed apart from the
guests in an orchestra occupied by the
fddlers.
He TOOK his revenge when he returned
to the Office where a dozen reporters
were awaiting him; be smiled benig-
nantly upon them and told them to go
home. "Go homeI" What do you
mean? Have you got the report7"' 81
have taken down every SYLLABLE" said
the redoabtable Murphy, there are my
notes." slapping his pocket-book, land
there they remain. have been grossly
insulted, and not lire of the speeches
shall ever see print" He was as good
as his word, and so far as England and
the world were concerned, the great
men at the Town Hall might as we'll
have uttered their words OF wisdom,
congratulation and warning in a thun-
derstorm from the top of Snowdon.

Captain J. R. Middlemiss, secretary
of the Ogden Coal and Coking Com
pany, was in this city, and yesterday
completed arrangements with the D. &
r. G. company for full facilities for
mining both their coke and coal. The
captain said: ut is claimed we cannot
coke our coal. Here is the coke to put
beside the claim" saying which he
pulled out a very fine piece of coke
which had been cooked in the open air.
The ovens are now being put up. They
also have fine cropping vein of cannal
coal which Is likely to be found of great
value here.

CATTLE AND SHEEP.
What a Beaver Man Has to Say of
These Industries.

Mr.. John Barraclough, of Beaver,
was in the city yesterday, and being
met by HERALD reporter, was asked
about the cattle and sheep Industries
in his part of the Territory.
Mr.. Barraclough. who Is heavy cat
tie owner, said that stock had never
been in better condition in his part ct
the Territory than they are this year
The ranges are excellent, and the
result is class of cattle that
can hardly be excelled. Though
the gentleman has heavy sheep
interests himself, he regrets the fact
that there are so many sheep in such
healthy eating condition in Beaver
county. He says the sheep are spelling
the ranges for the cattle and horses,
and herd after herd of them is being
driven in from the north. The whole
country. from the Sewer River south to
the Buckskin Mountains in Arizona, is
full of sheep. They are all in healthy
condition, and several heavy shipments
have been made from there during this
fall.
The cattle shipments have been IN
ucdNy3 VI LILO
owners have been duped by orders from
irresponsible parties. Mr.. Barraclough
was himself victim of misplaced con-
fdence, which cost him about $1,000.
He received an order for 500 head of
cattle from an Idaho man, which he
was to ship on or before a certain date.
AS the party who gave the order was
represented as being perfectly safe, no
MONEY! was demanded until the oattla
had been driven to the feeding point
nearest the railroad. Then the owner
decided to wait until there was some
substantial return in sight. The money
never came and the work of driving
the cattle from the range to the
railroad was in vain. This is
not the only case of the kind that
has occurred, several other owners
having met with similar fate at the
hands of different parties. Mr.. Barra-
clough says that no one can get cattle
in Beaver County now without money.
There are plenty of good cattle for sale,
but the people have been bitten once
and they want to see the cash before
they move their stock. 49,
Mr.. Barraclough afterWard sold this
sans bunch of 500 head in Wood River,
Idaho, at good prices, and other Beaver
ties have made good sales in the same
part of the country. The gentleman
has great confidence in the per-
manency of the cattle business in the
south and says the cattlemen will come
out on top without any trouble.

to-day to an Associated Press reporter
that within the last few weeks he had
received the designations of a consider

the Republicans, who they name and
recommend, be appointed in their
places. he said no designations had

insane, and was to- day removed to

his insanity is due to the disappoint-

Being questioned about other mat
tiers, Mr.. Barraclough said that things
were lively enough in the south, but
there was little going on that would be
of interest to outsiders. The court is

also number OF prosecutions for be-
fouling waters. Beaver, which is

CHEAP GRADE OF FOREIGN ACTORS

whom American managers imported
solely because of their cheapness.
Their profession is already oyer
crowded. and they thought themselves
fairly entitled 10 protection against the
wholesale importation OF foreign actors,
who were under no Obligation to the
United States and left 1t when their
engagement was at an end. The COM
mittee also claimed that their ward
robes, property and stage scenes were
all imported. contrary to law, with
out custom duties, and to the detri-
ment of Americans. This was done
through the ballet girls and Others
falsely swearing that the Wardrobes
etc., were their personal effects.
