Despite the heavy exports Of gold H4.4OO.0OO
arranged for Tomorrow the market has
hibted to-day the same characteristics IA yester-
day-firmness dulness scattered trading and
higher prices. Slightly higher prices would not
be so singular for It is Friday. and for many
successive Fridays now, save two. the market
has shown slight advances at the close. Cen
orally the rise has been due TO covering short
contracts at the end OF the week. but previous
Fridays for some time have not witnessed trad

business. Aside from some manipulation which
is apparent, present conditions continue TO DE
attributed TO hopes OF little wise legislation
before long, they are certainly IN large measure
due to the covering Of shorts. The opening was
strong and the most active stock was Chicago

the close The Changers were firm ana hlgher
on small trading-save ROCK lsIand, "h1ch was

stocks dealt in was increased. The principal de-
mand however was for the high-priced spe-
calties. At the close the market was dull. save
for Gas and a little lower than the highest.

ALTGELD's INSTRUCTIONS.
Appoints Seven New Mine inspectors and
Tells Them what tn DO

Tells Them What to Do.
CHICAGO, Oct. Ex-Governor Altgeld
secretly appointed seven state mine
inspectors, and yesterday he sum-
moned them before him, gave them
their commissions and then made the
following talk to them regarding their
duties. The governor said:
THE mining laws of this state were
enacted for the protection of the weak
and poor. The rich man, who is
strong. can take care of himself.
These coal miners are sometimes
ignorant of their rights, always poor
and dependent, and can not
manifest their dissatisfaction with OBJ
jectiOnable conditions prevailing
around the mines without risking their
jobs You are, therefore, appointed
by the State to do for them what they
can not do for themselves. 1, there
fore, insist that in inspecting mines you
do SO without permitting the operators
or their represen tatives to accompany
you. Make your inspection thorough
and independent, without their aid.
After you have done so, find out from
the men if there is any ground for
complaint among them. l further
wish to say that there has been en-
tirely too many accidents, not that
there have been more within the past
few years than formerly. but l mean
to say there were some accidents that
should have been avoided.
