Story ofa Leg,

1t was a common occurrence during the war
for soldier and his leg to part company. And
indeed it was common thing for soldier to
part with any portion of his anatomy. But
since the close of the long and bloody struggle
the cases of this kind are somewhat rare, and
this fact may add interest to this tale
During his retlrn from the Boston encamp-
ment comrade who lives in West Virginia
stopped while in Buffalo, n. Y. While see-
ing the city one Of his legs panied him, causing
him serious annoyance. So he obeyed the Bib
lcal injunction and took the offending memb Der
of, This be could easily do, as 1t was only
wood. He did not wear the member when be
left the city, but had it shipped to lessen the
bother OF the trip.
But, unfortunately the comrade went in one
direction and his leg in another. When he
arrived home he found his wooden underpin
missing. Thinking 1t might be in Pittsburg be
wrote TO this city. and his letter fell into the
hands Of Commander James Sheppard, of Post
l5l COmrade Sheppard instituted quest for
the runaway leg He went TO the Allegheny
Valley depot and a search was made among
the stored baggage. Here in a baby carriage
was found the comrades missing memb ber rest
ing peacefully. 1t made no attempt to get
away second time. Superintendent Pitcairn,
hearing the circumstances, remitted all charges
on the leg, and it was shipped to the comrade,
who, 1t appears from a letter to Commander
Sheppard, welcomed it back with open arms
and much pleasure,

THE WEEK IN OIL.
Very Little Trading on 'Change, With Prices
on the Decline.

Very little Trading on 'Chauge, With Prices
on the Decline.
The past week was full of encouragement to
the oil trade, business being extremely light
and the market weak, the close being nearly
cents under the opening.
This condition, with refined at the top of the
year and crude ar the bottom, is something
hard to understand, but the trade has about
concluded it is due to manIpulations Of the
Standard to crush speculation in the Pennsyl-
vania product so as to have clear field for
Buckeye. This Is as good an explanation as
any, and is probably the correct one. Certain it
is that If lett to itself, the market would mount
to a higher level, and this would attract out
siders.
There was next to no market yesterday.
There was no fuctuation and only one sale,
5000 barrels at T9H. and this just before the
close. There was stronger feeling in the
East, where a batch of buying orders turned
up. but no encouragement was found here.
Fluctuations for the day and week follow.

NEW YORK. September N.-The bank state
ment showed better than expected, the increase
in reserves being over sl2, 900 600 and in actual
cash nearly ST., 900, 600 The market gave no re-
spopse to these favorable figures, and this was
more noteworthy because It was fair to suppose
the bears would take advantage (as many
doubtless did) Of the lowest prices Of the week
to cover short sales. The outlook for Monday

The Drggoods Chronicle, of this morning,
says: 1T is very evident to the eyes of anyone
familiar with the New York drygoods market
at this time, that the edge Of the rush was worn
off, and that the top notch has been reached
and passed, and yet 1t is a fact that the bonded
warehouses are now full Of imported goods,
brought here to take advantage OF the advanced
tariff, and in quantities far in excess of imme.

Next Grand Army Day,

Where will Grand Army Day be held next
year5 1t might be considered too early to dis
cuss this interesting question we're it not that
one city has already put in its claims. McKees-
port extends its hand to the comrades offering
It's hospitality and requesting that it be the
scene next year of repetition of the glorious
time at Rock Point on the 18th.
Last week committee, headed BY Comrade
r. A. Chadwick, of Post SO of McKeesport
was among the PittsbUrg comrades agitatinC
the matter of celebrating the day IN their cfty
next year. They said that Mckeesporr would
entertain the visiting comrades royally ana
recoGnted what the city would do if the day
should be held there. McKeesport's claim will
OF course receive due consideration from the
committee when the time comes.
Every comrade was well pleased with Rock
Point which has but one objection, its dis
tance. The accommodations there are COM
plete for the purpose of the veterans and il is
likely that there will be strong sentiment
toward the holding of the second ''newn Grand
Army Day on the scene of the nrst's success
In speaking OF the matter Department Com
m2nder Denniston said that if there were only
an available place about the distance of
Sewickley there would be little doubt abont
where the next celebration would 90. He
DOUBTLESS voiced the sentiment of a majority
OF the comrades. The matter cannot be de.
clded until the calling together of the Grand
army Day committee next year.

A Philadelphia newspaper on last Sun
day published statement to the effect that
Comrade James Morrison, of Post !, was a
candidate for the Department Commander
ship for next term, and that his candidacy
had been talked over at Rock Point on
Grand Army Day. An inquiry was made
among the Grand Army men OF this city in
regard to it. None of the members of
prominence knew anything about it. None
knew of it being talked over at Rock
Point.
Comrade Morrison has large number of
friends in the organization in this vicinity,
and they believe he would make an excel
lent head of the Department, but none have
heard any serious talk about his being a
candidate for nexttyear. He is geographical
impossibiitv for Major Denniston's successor.
The next Department Commander will in all
probability come from thecentral portion Of
the State. The candidates so far announced
are: George G. Boyer, of Harrisburg: c. NJ.
Brumm, of Minersville, and ]. B. Stauffer, of

Bank rates for money were steady during the
past week at 607 per cent and closed on that
basis. There was good demand for funds to

new ones. The supply was equal to require

easier feeling prevailed.
That business continues to move on its usual
