Yesterday was day of great excitement
and depression at the New York Stock Ex-
change. The sales reached the large total
of 6s6.651 shares. liguidations having been
on more extensive scale than for long
time. There was nothing in the way of
news to affect prices adversely. Sterling
exchange was easier. and gold exports by
Saturdays steamers are still in doubt.
Money was also in better supply to the
Stock Exchange brokers. and rates of in
terest declined under increased offerings
BIZ the banks and other lenders. The heavy
selling OF stocks is attributable almost en-
tirely to the exhaustion of margins and the
uncertainty created by the rumors In
circulation affecting the credit of CORPORA
tivns and individuals. The only
failure reported was that of A.

consequence. The depression was most

STATION NOTES.

Deacon Smith will leave for his home in
Arkansas Saturday, TO mingle again
among his own people and teach their
souls to be peaceful. The Deacon returns
with a fine morocco covered Bible, pre-
sented him by a lady who had the pleasure
OF listening to one of his famous sermons,
a nice hymn book, presented to him by
another lady, and silk hat, presented to
him by Charlie Hatton All his heart
desires now is a linen buster, which he
must have in order to make he proper i'm
preston among his parishioners when he
returns.
Two old men applied for lodgings at the
station last night and were given shake
downs in the trustys cell. One of them
is said to be nearly 50 years old and lie
hasn't friend in the world that he knows
of. 1t is sad TO see men of their age wan
dering about the country depending upon
the charity of the people for support. One
of them is scholarly old gent and has
evidently seen better days as he is quite
polished in his manner.
A policeman was called last night to
Root Bros stable to Kill horse whose
leg had been broken. The animal was a
valuable Que and is quite loss to its
owners.
Lane Fisher of Orlando, Oklahoma, was
visitor at the station last night, having
come up TO see his father, who Is in very
poor health and expected to die at any
moment

ATTEMPTED burglary.


Early yesterday morning some person
intent on robbery tried to pry open one of
the windows on the north side of the New
York store. The would be robber was
evidently well acquainted with the
grounds and knowing that Mr.. Hender-
sons large mastiff was no more probably
imagined that he would have but little
trouble in effecting large sized robbery
by himself. But Mr. Henderson All pro-
vided himself with much more effective
watchdog, than the old one and when the
window was partially opened the dog set
up nice quiet alarm that was heard at
the headquarters AMI man promptly
came upon the scene and the burglar fed,
having failed in the object nf his mission
The store had recently baen provided with
a new burglar alarm system ana as soon
- an opening not exceeding four inches
vide had been made the alarm rang in the
headquarters of the company aud police
man promptly responded. Mr.. Henderson
is profuse IN his praises OF the working of

FAVORED OKLAHOMA.

Mr.. Henry 4. Asp, of Guthrie, O. T.. the
Oklahoma attorney for the Santa Fe road,
came mp from Guthrie last night and will
spend few days in the city traasacting
business with Fred. Bentley, the COM
pany's legal representative at this point.
He is comforting with Mr.. Bentley in re-
gard to the prosecution of the two men
in the county Jail charged with the
| murder of the operator at Wharton.
In conversation with an EAGLE reporter
Mr.. Asp spoke enthusiastically of the crop
prospects for Oklahoma this year. and was
particularly well satisfied that Oklahoma
proper, or rather the portion of the terri
tory which was four years of age last Sat
urday, would put many of the Older states
to shame when the crops were harvested.
He said that they had had an abundance
OF rain, really more than was necessary,
and that the wheat, and in fact all cereals
promised most excellent yields, aud
that the fruits were not at all
the hindmost in the procession Mr..
Asp said that there was an immense
rain day before yesterday. and that few
hailstones fell, and that black, omincus
clouds hung in the west and south from
Guthrie
In regard to the tornado which was re-
ported from Moore. Mr.. Asp said that de-
| tails were very meager.
During his visit 10 Washington recently
Mr.. Asp says that he had ii most Ell joyabie
time watching the antics and maneuvers
OF the officeSeekers under the aew admin
istration. AS regards the Oklahoma APP
pointments he had nothing to say farther
than he would like for them to be home
men, and he thought that most of them
would be.
Mr. Asp did not think that the strip
would be opened TIL September. the prin
cipal reason for his thinking SO being the
clause which provides for the allottng of
the seventy Tntruders. There has been
already 125 persons made application for
being the favored ones and the prospects
are that the number will reach $50 before
long. Of course the allotting agents must
determine who is entitled to the allot-
ments and that will take considerable
time. And again the county
seats must be established and
surveyed and that will occupy some more
time. Ia his letter to Secretary Smith
Governor Seay recommended that where
IL was possible that the county seats be
established on the lines of railroads, and
where the counties have no railroads that
special agent be appointed TO locate
them in the most suitable portion of the
county. and thus avoid some of the criti-
cism which was INDUCED in when the Sac
and Fox Iowa, and the Cheyenne aud
Arapahoe countries were opened to settle
ment.
Mr.. Asp is loyal to his adopted home
and thinks that Oklahoma when admitted
as state will be the grandest and most
brilliant star in the galaxy of states COM
posing this great nation.

Yesterday afternoon As Mrs. n A.

along Main street near Central her horse
became frightened at a street car and be-
coming unmanagebie turned across the
track just in time for the car to strike il.
The car struck the buggy with consider
able force, completely wrecking it and
turning it upside down with Mrs. Walton
underneath, and throwing the horse upon
his side. The horse began struggling and
would undoubtedly have killed the lady
in his struggles HAD not gentleman nam
ed Powell, who took in the situation at a

aud held him still while some other by
ISLANDERS released Mrs. Walton from her
perilous position. Mrs. Walton was.
strange to say. only slightly injured, aud
WAS taken into Gus Luud'S drug store
where she quickly recovered from her
fright. Ii was very narrow escape and
she undoubtedly owes her preservation TO

A NICE LEGAL QUESTION.

The time of his honor, Judge Reed, was
largely occupied yesterday in the hearing
of the court case of William A Turner
vs.. Aaron McKinstry and wife. There is
a close law question in the case of interest
generally to lawyers and litigants. All of
the evidence was introduced, but the court
said he would listen to the argument later
on. Messrs. Bentley & Hatfield appeared
for the plaintiff, and Messrs. Sturtevant &
Sturievant represented Mrs. Nellie NJ.
McKinstry. the only defendant in the
| case who contested the right of the plain
tiff to recover the relief sought. Plaintiff
made loan in March, 1892, to the McKin-
s;rys, and took mp certain land contract
at the Fourth National bank. He was
to keep these papers as security for
his money until the defendants husband
and wife made to him a mortgage on this
land to secure his advances. This they
did, receiving his papers, and, in conf
dence that they would treat him right,
Turner alleges that he gave the deed and
bis mortgage to the McKinstrys. Mrs
Nellie NJ. Mckinstry afterwards upon the
promise, as Turner alleges. that she would
record the mortgage. obtained possession
of the same, placed the deed on record, but
ever since that time has kept the mortgage
off from the record, and has refused to
deliver the same to the plaintiff This she
admitted upon the trial. Turner brings
suit and asks that he bs surrogated to the
rights OF the man holding the land con-
tract; in other words, he appeals to the
equity side of the court for protection
McKlnstry and his wife no longer live to-

MORE ABOUT THAT DEMURRER.

To the Editor of the Eagle:
| Yesterday MORNINGS paper stated that
the Rock Island Lumber company had
! succeeded in evading the payment of q
$500 subscription to the board of trade, by
the district court sustaining their de-
murrer. The EAGLES young man gush-
lngly states that "the decision meets the
hearty approval of nearly all interested"
The Subsidy land company that brought
the suit, is composed of Il number of our
representative business men, who gave
! largely of their substance to the board Of
trade funds. aud after giving all they
could afford to were patriotic enough 70
endorse board of trade paper for several
thousand dollars that the board might
meet its obligations made upon the faith
of just such subscriptions as that of the
Rock Island Lumber company. Collec-
tions being slow to facilitate matters the
board OF trade turned over to these public
spirited endorsers their assets. Ii the Sub
sidy land company should succeed in col
lect!ng any more than the debts they are
held for the balance would be turned over
TO the board of trade, so that the COM
pany was hardly formed for profit. 1t
may be law that a number of our public
spirited men should make good the I'M
paid subscriptions to the board OF trade,
but ii isn't justice, and the decision meets
only the approval OF those Sinking
just responsibility. When a wealthy
corporation like the Rock Island Lumber
company makes subscription and evades
paying it, and allows number of our
people to pay it for them, they are accept
lug charity. No attempt is being made
to collect donations from those unable to
pay. The EAGLES young man further
says, about the only enterprises estab-
lished are the Burton Car company and
the two packing houses" Evidently this
young man bankers for more than earthly
things and would like some Astral pos
sessions. 1t is no fault of the board of
trade that the Burton Car company have
never attempted to carry out their con-
tract and have acted so dishonoraby to-
wards our city, nor that the packing
houses have only partially carried out
their agreements. Iu contrast, however,
the board of trade have faithfully kept
their contracts with every enterprise they
have encouraged. Their record is ali
honorable one and deserves different treat
ment than they have received at the hands
of subsidised industries, delinquent sub
scribers aud the courts. ENDoRsEI
