Review, Received Daily by Pullen, Crock

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.
The market presented no change in its profess
slonal features, and while there was renewed
manipulation III some OF the industrIals, the
railway list was heavy and inclined TO sell off.
The principal topic OF discussion was the circu-
lar letter of President Roberts OF the Pennsy /
vania railroad, calling Oh heads of departments
to exercise the most rigid economy. This revived
the discussion of the unsatisfactory outlook for
earnings, and twas further emphasized by the
unhappy statement of the Union Pacific Itmay
not be denied that present prospects point to I'M
favorable comparisons OF railway revenues for
some time, and no change may be predicted until
general business shows signs of a check to the
prevailing depression. Important mercantile and
industrial failures are occurring with little more
unpleasant frequency of late. and the delay in
Congress in dealing with questions like the tar
tiff and the state of the national treasury is not
benefiting the situation. Conditions certainly
do not, in our eyes. justify expectations Of any
early improvement in values. although on the
other hand the plethora of money afford g sup
port against any important decline. Holders
are refusing to sell their stocks in spite of the
discouraging outlook for the railroads, hence the
efforts of the bears to produce depression are
of little avail. Next week ought to bring some
definite developments with respect to the treas
ury policy of the administration and pending
new influences of a character to affect values,
we look for the continuance ola narrow market.
in which it seems to be wise to confine all ven
lures to the weak days.

The Union Mutual Life Insurance
Company during the month of October,
1898. wrote A LARGER AMOUNT OF
NEW BUSINESS THAN IN ANY COR
RESPONDING MONTH DURING THE
PAST TWENTY YEARS.
While the New Issues are so rapidly
increasing, it is equally worthy of note
that the Company's Death-rate shows
not only relative but an actual de-
cline; this factor so all-important in the
transaction of a Life Insurance Business
is of such a marked character, that
few facts and figures in connection there
with are given.
The Notices of Death received by the
Company from January LIST to October
31st, 1898, amounts to $379,3 and when
compared with the corresponding period
of 1892 shows very substantial de-
crease, thus
