ing House of Henry CIews Il Co.
New YORK, Oct 25, 1892.
The Stock Market has been unset
tied, chiefly owing to the higher rates
for money. Bank reserves have steadi.
ly declined until the surplus reserve
is almost wiped out. Early in June
ting banks held a surplus of about
S23 100000. Such a fall as this, so
early in the crop and business season,
naturally causes stringency.
The present stringent condition Of
the money market, however, is not a
strong argument in support of the
calamity side or the market. II it
came from distrust, as scarce money
sometimes does then such an attitude
on the part OF the bears would be we'll
taken; but as money is now active,
because 1t is well employed all over
the country for legi innate business
uses, it only goes to show that the
country is under an impetus OF great
prosperity. This naturally results to
the advantage of the railroads and in
sures them plenty Otbusiness for some
time ahead; whereas. if money were

restricted business. thereby making
a recedlng market in the prices of
their securities as natural conse-
quence. Some of the leading bear
operators have become more demon
strative In their attacks owing to
active money, which they are trying
to make factor in forcing lower
prices.
The only other disturbance has
been the action of Chancellor McGiil
towards the coal combination, which
affected all the coal shares adversely.
These properties hsve all made large
advances during the last few months,
based upon the better prices obtained
for coal through the coal com bina.
ton; and now. that their power In
this respect has met with severe
check their course is less certain.
The present outlook tor our railroads
Is an unusually bright one; but, as
the bear side is pretty strongly backed
through the influence of tight money,
long stocks may be forced out from
time to time. 1t is quite possible that
money may return from the West
sooner than usual owing to the IN
usual esrliness of the grain movement
this fall. Oflate the receipts of grain
at Western points have been unpre-
cedented; and it follows that the ear
ly marketing of grain should release
a portion of the funds sent Westward
correspondingly soon.
L advise taking fair profits when
obtainable, and recommend quick
turns in both buying and selling; at
any rate until currency commences to
return from the interior or gold starts
to come this way. The latter may be
expected at no distant period, al
though 1t will meet with strong re
sistance at all points of Europe. Nat
ural currents, however, will always
prevail in the end. We are now en-
titled to import some gold, and it will.
not be much longer interfered with
by artificial and other illegitimate
methods.

dant entered the room through the win
dow, opened the door. the Justice viewed
the body and ordered it carried to an
undertaken. Carter & Mullaly were
teIephoned for and very soon arrived.
When found tie victim of his own mad
ness was lying on the bed in his under
clothing with 30 calibre pistol in his
hand. The pistol and bed were covered
with blood. The ball entered the mans
head near the temple, making a large
hole, and probably lodging in his
neck as it is evident it took
downward course. 1t is supposed he
directly to the cavity. The clothes of the

about Sl2, was found. Some papers and
letters were also secured, but nothing

gram was received from his wife ordering

SEDALIA, Mo, Oct. 25.-T Special
The eyes of the horse men will be on
the Sedalia race track this week
where Nancy Hanks and Martha
Wilkes are to try conclusions again st
time, which has now been repeatedly
beaten. The question agitating the
world Is the prospect of striking the
two minute gait this week. The
Missouri State Fair Association has
made public the programme for the
fall trotting meeting which begins
today and ends Oct. Goth. 1t COM
prises sixteen events, Including the
races against records by Nancy
Hanks and Martha Wilkes for purses
aggregating $4,000. Tomorrow Doble
will drive Martha Wilkes over the
kite track, and on the following
day will send Nancy Hanks to beat
her record. For the exhibitions
which Martha and Nancy will give
the association will pay Mr.. Doble
SIS 1000. Three times now within q
very few months Nancy Hanks has
made new record. On August 18th.
she trotted in 2;07 IA, outdoing Sunol
by second and Maud s. by a second
and half. On August 3lst when
she had the advantage of a kite
shaped track she lowered the record
by two whole seconds. Then another
reduction of one and q quarter Sec
Onds stood to her credit at Terre
Haute. 1t should be noted, too, that
Nancy did the third quarter in that
last race in 20 and one half seconds,
which is at the rate of a mile In 1:5S.
The history of Nancy Hanks is
worth careful recital, in view of the
great things expected of her in this
meeting. She is a dark bay, small
sized, not to exceed fifteen hands
high, and was born and bred in Ken
lucky. She made her first appear
ance at Hsrrodsburg, July 81, 1889
and lost one heat of race, the only
defeat scored in her eventful life. She
won seven races that year, and closed
with record of 2:24 and a half. In
1890 she won six races, scoring
2:14 and a half at Lexington Aug.
2Sth. In 1891 she met Allerton at In
dependence, Ia, and lowered the re-
cord to PIP in that race. At Cam.

tiers that year in 80 3-4, 81 8 4, go and
