A break of nearly 2 points in New York and
New England, on a rumor that a snag had been
struck in the alleged deal with Boston and
Maine. had an adverse influence on the stock
market This morning. The bears not only ham
mered New England, but used every effort to
mark down prices for other stocks. Selling for
short account was quite heavy, but, outside or
New York Central and Northern Pacific pre-
ferred. the general list yielded only A@H per
cent. During the afternoon the absence OF
offerings Of long stock caused shorts TO feel ap-
prehensive. and as the day drew to close, the
desire to cover became quite general As
result, prices advanced M9B per cent. from
the lowest, and final quotations, as rule, were
the highest attained. Changers and Manhattan
led the upward turn. American Sugar sold up
from 1885 TO 1l0al. Burlington and Quincy
from l0Ssk to 10334. Chicago Gas from 20 to 81,
Distillers aud Cattle Feeding from 63sz to 6419

Among the influences operating in favor OF
higher prices to day were the easier rates Tor
money near the close, the decline in sterling
exchange, che placing OF amounts OF railway

other leading banking houses on this side ana
the heavy tonnage of railroads, which Is at

A Husband and Wife Reunited After
Search of Five Years.
From ire 81. Louis Globe Democrat
SEATTLE. WASH. Oct. S.-A romance In
real life has just come to light In Ballard.
and the ending is a happy one. Five years
ago Mr.. and Mrs. H. G. Baker lived on
farm about twenty-eight miles south OF
Bismarck. Oak. They had been in the
country but few years and spoke English
imperfectly. They were thrifty and had
fne place, and were fairly prosperous. The
country did not suit them, however, and
Mr.. Baker started for California to look for
a new home. intending to send for his wife
as soon as he found one. Before leaving be
made arrangements by which she could dis
pose of their property without delay. He
had been gone but few weeks when Mrs.
Baker received a letter one day from q
friend stating that Mr.. Baker had died I'm
California. Mrs. Baker, believing this
story, at once sold the farm and stock, and
with several thousand dollars came to
Washington to make her home. She finally
located at Ballard.
Mr. Baker wrote TO bis wife about the
very time she was on her way west. After
the usual delay the letter was returned with
the Endorsement: Removed; present ad-
dress not known" A letter TO the post
master brought him the explanation that
his wife, believing him TO be dead, had sold
out and moved away, no one knew WHITTIER.
Mrs Baker could speak but very little Eng
Iish and had made no acquaintance to
whom she could tell her plans. ALI the
nelRhbors knew was that she had sold the
place and gone away with the children; and
they all felt sorry for Der because she
mourned so for the death Of her husband.
Then, and for Eve long years thereafter,
Mr. Baker began and continued his search
for his wife and children, whom he at last
discovered at Ballard. He was greatly
handicapped IN his search by his imperfeot
knowledge of the English language and his
ignorance Of the ways Of doing business In
this country.
A year ago MIR. Baker In his wanderines
came to Ballard from Snohomish, where be
had been following q clue to his wifes
whereabouts, for he had assured himself
that she had come to this state and was liv-
ing on Puget sound somewhere. He dined
at a hotel almost within speaking distance
of his wife and children, never once drean~
ing they were 30 near.
A short time ago Mrs. Baker sent pict-
ure Of herself and children to Mr.. Bakers
parents in the old country. They sent word
to their son, and he at once fastened 10 the
side Of his lost wife and joyful reunion
took place. Mr.. and Mrs. Baker are q pre-
possessing couple, and live in cosy little
home on the east side of Ballard. They
have an interesting family OF three bright
boys, aged 6, 8 and 10 years. The last time
Mr.. Baker saw his youngest boy be was an
infant nursing in bis mothers arms, and
when he saw him here he was wheeling a
barrow of wood for his mother. Mr. Bakers
face beamed with happiness over the for
tunate ending or his wanderings as he told
his story 20 a reporter last night.

very successful. Mrs. Ross and the

South church parlors, which they had

than they offered not only to the

of invited guests. In the dining

Mrs. Parkhurst at the white and

TRIBUTE TO PRESIDENT GATES.

In an article upon Greek plays in
American colleges in the September
Review Of Reviews there is a fine
portrait of President Gates of Iowa
College and the following tribute to
the old East St. Johnsbury boy:
president George A. Gates has refused
to leave his successful work on the
prairies, after an experience of five years,
in order to accept the presidency, at
much better salary than he was receiv-
ing in the West, of his own alma mater,
a prominent Eastern college of noble and
historic fame. 1t would scarcely be
within bounds to attribute Mr.. Gates
decision to missionary zeal or to any
whimsical or quixotic principle of self
sacrifice. Doubtless his sense of loyalty
to a work which needed him, and which
was prospecting hopefully under his eye
and hand, was a leading motive in his
conclusion to remain west of the Missis-
sippi, even though as man of Eastern
birth and education the proffered op-
portunity would have been in so many
respects congeilial. But beyond ali this,
his decision indicated an appreciation OF
the westward shifting of the pre-
ponderance of influence in this country,
and of the larger scope presented by a
Western state like Iowa to a young edu-
cational leader whose life work isJrlostly
before him, than could be found in an old
New England state"
