CLOSING PRICES OF SAN FRANCISCO STOCKS
CLOSING PRICES OF PHILADELPHIA STOCKS
WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.

Thursday, November 23--p IN.
Another turn in the speculative whirligig was
made to-day. There was special reason why
prices should have declined just az the advance
Yesterday was inexplicable. 1t Is the fashion
able opinion that the course OF prices depends
entirely on the changes in tariff and Internal
revenue laws There. is evidently a great deal
of doubt in a speculative way. about the duty
on sugar the bounty the domestic product
and the possible competition If only the duty
on refined sugars should be abrogated. The
action in regard 70 the tax on spirits Is equally
uncertain, according TO the stock market. and
the revenue tax is more less. according to
the wishes wants Of Spectators. The course
of prices was controlled therefore. by the opera
tons Of professional traders. If they concluded
that the bounty sugar ought to be removed
and duty imposed on the raw article. they
were uncertain whether they ought to buy or
sell Sugar Refining stock. The tax On~splrits
may be increased. but the price Of Dlsilling
and Cattle Feeding stock depends on the opera
tions by inside interests. II needs only TO be
remarked that Sugar Refining lost l per cent
and Distilling and Cattle Feeding gained ~
per cent. The two stocks about equally
active. The prominent feature Of the market
was the weakness OF General Electric. although
IL is officially stated once more that the company
Is in no danger Of a recevership. After a
moderate rally the stock ended with loss Of rs
per cent. The lowest price in the recent panic
was 80 and the final price to-day only
per cent above the lowest figure. II ought, per-
haps to be rememie cred that the stock sold
above ia early in the year.
Final changes were declines. and fall OF
Yer cent in ST. Paul was more significant thar
all the variations in industrial and special
stocks. The closing was feverish, but on the
whole steady at the decline.

we Can reed the wor,d.


The country northeast Of town adjoin-
ing the corporation is alive with half
starved Texas steers. There are about
$500 of them all told. They arrived this
week on special trains containing So cars
in all. The cattle belong to Blair. Ali
son & Crockett, and were shipped from
Amarillo, Texas, on Thursday and Fri
day of last week. They ,swere hurried
through N special trains and the freight
bill will amount to about $4,000. The
drought is becoming SO bad in North
western Texas that hundreds of cattle
are dying. The lot shipped in bear evil
dence of the fact. They are as poor a lot
of critters as II ever saw-all horns and
legs and look as though they could out
run a jackrabbit. The rich Dakota
grasses will put fat on those big frames
In a jiffy, however, and we hopo make a
mint Of money for then plucky owners.
There came to Kimball to meet the herd
IL cowboys and 40 ponies from Gettys-
burg and vicinity, in charge of Geo. Rob-
inson, who will have charge OF the herd
this season. For a week the cattle will
be kept OIL the school,section northeastern
town and from there driven slowly to
Pierre. occupying a months time. They
will then be taken to across the river and
and herded near the mouth of the Chey-
enne. On the way to Pierre the herd
will be branded at the Crockett ranch, in
Hand county, The steers are from two
to five years old. j. r. Blair Of the firm
is here from Whiting, Iowa, superintend-
ing the starting OF the herd. The cattle
were shipped to this point because it was
learned that the feed was better near
Kiu1baIl than at any point this side Of
the range. About $500 worth Of hay has
been fed out as the steers were unlosued.
They came through in pretty good shape,
only a few dying on the long journey.
They met a cold reception, however.
Worse weather at this season of the year
is rarely seen in this section. The first
train load got out OF the cars to weak to
walk, many OF them, and to find a nasty,
~drizzling, cold rain falling and turning
to a wet, driving snow storm all night.
No shelter could be found for so many, of
course, and 40 died. This number has
since been swelled to 1G0, as it has rained
and showed the greater part Of the time
since the cattle arrived.

intentionally-and thereby was the
means of doing Mr.. Southgate an injus-
