NEW YoRK, Dec. 1.-The Commercial

embrace of the bears Monday morning.
Since Friday there has been tendency
to weakness in the market consequent
upon the rnmor that the proposed rail
road trust was meeting opposition from
some of the very roads that were sup

the arrangement. The scheme was be-
lieved to be Jay Gould's invention, and
SO suspicious are many railroad men OF

an interview with him which attracted

In the interview Mr.. Gould denies most

The Races,

Yesterday was the last day of the fall trot-
ting and pacing meeting of 1855 at Union
park, and the attendance was most dlscour-
aging. The gate receipts amounted to almost
nothing, while the attractions were of the
very best. The weather was all that could be
desired, with the exception Of the wind that
blew half a gale during a part of the after
noon and prevented a lowering of records in
some cases. The great performance of the
day was the pacing of the two-year-old
stallion, Ed Rosewater, the property of N. l..
ID. Solomon Of Omaha. The track was at least
three seconds slow owing to the wind, which
raised a terrific cloud of dust and fairly shook
the grand stand and amphitheater. The Won
derful colt, which is a handsome dark gray,
is splendidly bred, of fine action and great
endurance. He was sired by Vasco, a son OF
Harold, the sire of Maud S., and his dam was
Vince, by Belmont. by Alexander's Abdal-
lah. He is truly a phenomenon and
good things are expected of him in
the future. He has beaten the
the worlds record for 2-year old pacing, and
in two days lowered it four seconds. He
was valued at $4,000 previous TO this per-
Torrance, but his owner now places him at
Sl5,0OO. His performance is regarded as one
of the greatest turf events of the year..
1t is very doubtful il any more racing will
be witnessed at Union PARK. The manage
ment has struggled for years to keep up the
park, and the attendance has been very
light. The track is the fastest in the west

THE rs AGREE.

Mr.. G.. E. Bell has taken into partner
ship Mr.. George A. Berlinghof, late
with Mendelsson, Fisher Il Lowry, Of
Omaha. This combination of architects
Is very strong and just such al one as
Council Bluffs needs. Mr.. Berlinghof
has been educated in the best schools of
the country, and DIS a designer he
especially excels. He has had a great
deal of experience, having been with
the above firm for eve years. He has
designed many Of the best blocks and
had charge Of the erection of some Of
the finest buildings in Council Bluffs
and Omaha. In detailing he is also
very effective, having no superiors and
few equals in the entire west.
- Those. who contemplate building
either residences or business blocks
should not fail to call at their studio in
Opera House block, where the best evil
dences of their ability can be seen in
the work they have already done. One
Of the firm is always at the studio. to
attend 10 customers.

photoprnphs of Cannon Balls.

Paris American Register: The we'll
known photographer, Anschuetz of
LISA. has for some years been expert
menting with photographs of the flight
of cannon balls from the moment of
their projection to their striking the
target or object aimed at. Last month,
on the trying grounds of the Gruson
works. near Buckau, he has demon
strated the perfection of his studies.
He succeeded in obtaining remarkable
and highly interesting results. His
plates were submitted to the expert,
Prof. DR.. Koenig of the Berlin univer-
sity, who was perfectly able to make
thcrefrOm the desired practical ~calcula-
tions. He established the fact that the
projectile thus photographed had a
velocity Of 400 meters a second, and
that the duration of the light thrown
on the Photographic plate, did not ex-
ceed the t~en-thOusanth part of ii second.
Corkscrews are made by the million in the

Not two months since we announced in
these columns the formation of a new re-
ligious organization in this city, the Bethany
Baptist church. From time to time W. have
chronicled the movements of this body, and
we must say that its members have devel-
oped a surprising amount of push and en-
ergy. They have a regularly settled pastor,
they rent a house of worship on the corner
of Bluff and Story streets, where they have
held services every Sunday, morning and
evening, since beginning their existence as II
church. The last movei as in some respects
the most remarkable of all. Although they
have already undertaken a great deal, con
sidering the smallness Oft their numbers,
they do not hesitate to undertake more.
During the past week they have made
changes in their house of worship which i'm
prove it past recognizance. They have pa
pcred the walls, carpeted the floor and have
put new furniture into the pulpit, including
a stand or reading desk which is the per-
lection Of neatness and convenience. They
nave added other lesser features besides.
which altogether make their church home
pleasing and attractive ina high degree.

The Electric Motor.

II has been decided not to start regular
trains on the motor line until Tuesday. The
work will be completed by that time, and
there will be nothing to interfere with the
successful operation of the line. The run
ming Of cars interferes with the work of fit
ting up the line, and the linemen dislike to
work on the wires when the current is on, as
they are liable to get repeated shocks, which
are very disagreeable. The damage done to
the wires at the Northwestern crossing by q
passing train, in charge of a Union Pacific
crew, has been repaired, and the wires are
now out Of the reach of passing trains.
