We gracefully yield the floor to our
advertisers until the campaign opens
then we shall double the price of
Space.-PEOPLE's VOICE.
1t seems from the above that the
price of advertising in the VOICE is
about as fuctuating under the pres
ent management of that paper as Mr..
Pucketts pOliticS.-Daily Mail.
As for "Mr. Puckctt's politics." we
seldom discuss politics with Repub-
lican who is afraid to confess his
weakneSs-but we are glad you re-
ferred to advertising rates. The
VOICE is the only paper in the city
that holds up advertising rates. 1t
always has and forever will make its
own prices to suit itSelf-and further
more, said prices will be higher than
those of any other paper in Sumner
county. The VOICE has larger cir
culatiOn than any other weekly paper
in the COunty-more than any six
Gays of the Mail combined. We chal-
lenge comparison Of circulation. Our
books may be inspected by commit
tee of merchants Of Wellington at
any time, provided the other papers
OF the city will accord the same COM
mittee a like privilege. Increasing
circulation warrants US in raising
rates, though they may not be imme-
diately doubled. Our rates are 50 per
cent higher than the average rate in
the county. We shall soon have
more to say on this subject. Our
readers are entitled to more of our
space than anybody else-because
they pay more toward the expense of
the paper. Circulation almost exclu-
slyely among the farmers is worth
more than among the residents of the
city, who skim over half a dozen
dailieS and the personal column Of
the local paper and never see the ad-
yertisements at all. The farmer is
looking for bargains these days, and
il our advertisers offer bargains land
are as good as their world they will
secure trade. The average town resi-
dent trades only at a certain store
through habit and convenience to
the part of town in which he resides
Of the stores he passes in going to and
from his meals. The farmers don't
live in town and can tie up wherever
there is hitching post.

NEW YORK, June 2l.-Speculation at the stock
exchange was quiet again to-day and the at
tendance at the board smaller than usual, many
brokers and operators having left the street at
an early hour to witness the Suburban handicap
at Sheepshead bay. The tendency of prices
during the day was downward, owing to the en-
gagement of 100000 gold for shipment to
Europe on Saturday, and a belief that next
weeks exports will be quite heavy. The re-
duction in the Wells Fargo semtaunual and
the Mexican Northern quarterly dividend and
the passing altogether Of the one due on the
stock of the Old Colony Steamship company
following SO closely after similar action by tine
New York, New Haven and Hartford, and
Northern Central directors discouraged small
holders, who made little resistance to the some
what feeble attacks made by the bears. 1t also
directed attention afresh to the probable action
of the New York Central directors tomorrow
The concensus of ooiaiou was that no change
will be made In the Vanderbilt dividends at this
time and the stocks certainly acted as IL the
usual distribution will be ordered.
Atchison started Off fir m and at first the re-
organic alton plan was favorably received. Later
on London sold the stock and local holders also
appeared as sellers. The common rose frac-
tiouay to e5s, fell to SIS and left off at 6H In
the early trading the general list moved up u to
81, Union Pacific and Erie leading. A raid on
Chicago Gas, in which this specially was de-
pressed from 1915 to 77ss, destroyed the good
feeling and a reaction set in. Talk about en-
Joining the payment of the dividend hurt Chi
cago Gas.
Sugar was lower on marketing OF long stock
and the price fell from 90 to 961s, with subse-
nue.,t raaauaru IN or EAara of --sr,hA----

counts for the selling Of the stock The bears
also tried their hand at Missouri Pacific and
forced it down from 27s4 to 2614, but at the close
| a rally to 1854 ensued. Denver and RIO Grande
preferred dropped from 2sS to 2sK. London
sold little OF the stock. The first mortgages
were offered down points to 1i3, but there were
no transactions in the As. The interest on the
latter is due July /. Toward the close a firmer
tone prevailed and q rally Of " to 1 per cent

YALE STABLES ATTACHED.

Proprietor Il. e. Bristol Sued for Two
ThOusand Dollars by John W. Leete
of Hartford.
The. Yale stables on Court street, be-
tween Orange and Church streets, owned
by Edward E. Bristol, were attached yes
terday for 81, 900 in suit brought against
Mr.. Bristol by John W. Leete of Hartford,
administrator of the estats of the late Ur-
sula E. Webster, also of the Capitol City.
The papers in the suit, which are return
able to the next term of the euperio. court,
were served by Deputy Sheriff Brockett.
The allegations In the suit are that on
July 2, 1889, Ursula E. Webster of the
city of Hartford delivered to Mr., Bristol
one coupe, one Whitehall buggy and sew.
eral carriage robes and blankets, ETC..
which were to be stored BY the said Bristol
and returned on demand. On August /.
1889, It is claimed that Bristol delivered
the goods to some person other than to the
said Webster, and that recently, after said
Webster's death, when John W. Leets, as
administrator of the estate, demanded the
goods they were not forthcoming; hence
the suit.
