PLATT IS SERENE. His Slate Will Go Through Without Much
 Trouble,

Saratoga. N. Y. Sept 15.-Few Of the no,iticians have done little else today than stroll about the corridors of their respective hotels and discuss the situa- tion. Republican headquarters at Con- rress hall had an almost deserted appear ance tonight, while over at the United States hotel the office has an air of activ- ity that is refreshing. Hon. Thomas c. Platt held court at parlor 2, United States hotel, and reviewed the situation with his supporters. That he is more in- terested in the presidential situation than anythns else Is conceded. The excise question. which is commanding more or less attention. Is a sort of secondary consideration with him, and according to reports he is giving 1t but little thought. The working of the convention IS mapped out and the slate formed will go through without any trouble. Representative sherman of Utica will be temporary chairman and Clarence Lexow of Mack permanent chairman. The old state offi- cers will be renominated with the ex- ception of courts of appeal judge. What little strife there is in the convention will come over this nominaton, but with out queston Platis man, Judge Martin, will be the successful nominee.

A BOND RUM0R.
Presence of Assistant Secretary Curtis in New
 York Makes I ak.

New York, Sept. 15.--The Tribune to- morrow will say: When William E. Curtis, assistant secretary of the treas ury, was recently in New York it was not announced that he, as the represent ative of Secretary Carlisle. discussed with New York bankers the necessity for another issue of government bonds. In fact 1t was said by those who are gen orally supposed to know what MT. Cur tis talks about in his frequent visits to this city that he did not come to discuss bonds. But 1t is known, however. upon the most trustworthy and indisputaole authority--the authority of a bank pres ident who saw MT. Curtis-that the ques- tion of another issue of bonds was dls- cussed, and that MT Curtis stopped m New York mainly for the purpose of finding how the banking community or this city felt about call for subscrio- lions to more government bonds.
 When MT. Curtis was here last week he talked with J. Pierpont Morgan With Conrad Jordan. the head or the SUD treasury in this city, and with other Influential men.

IRON MARKET.

Cincinnati Sept. 14.--The business or the week has been in the aggregate heavy. There has not been heavy tonnage in the usual foundry grades of coke irons but there has been a great run in ordinary orders, embracing all classes and grades of pig iron. indic1t- ing a general activity throughout the country. The comparative high prices of Bessemer and it's scarcity has ven great impetus to the trade Tn Daslc pig iron, and large blocks have been placed during the week. Charcoal iron has en- joyed an enlarged business and the char coal iron markets have advanced tn IT prices accordingly. The ire ghts from the south advance tomorrow 5j cents per ton to Ohio and M ssisSippi river pothlS and the southern furnaces are gettlnS forward all the iron possible at the cur rent rate. Consumers are entirei! WIT ing, as the metal is needed by them.
 The extraordinary demand for BesSe- mer and basic pig have Invited numerous furnaces hitherto strangers to anything but the usual foundry grades into the production of these irons for steel pur- poses. and curtails approximately the supply of foundry and ordinary mill grades.
 Stocks at the furnaces have been go- ing off steadily and rapidly until the ln- sold stocks of coke irons today m al grades represent but about two weeks supply at even the present rate or con sumption and should the general activity reasonably anticipated by many maie- rialize a famine in pig iron may be real ized
 There are successful men in the trade who feel that the advances that have op- 'tained have been somewhat eXcessiVe and predict a reaction, some others en- tertain the view that so far the advances have been warranted and healthy, but that higher prices would invite IorelSh competition and increase importauons.
 If the revival of business the country today enjoys is healthful recuperatlon from the protracted depression Of two years duration. and is the revitailzlng of American energies. the material quick ening of our marvellous resources In n natural expansion of a progressive ana aggressive nation. the optimists are on the winning side of the problem.

The Little Corporal Was Very Fond Of tAs
NobSe Animals.
In the present revival of interest In
Napoleon, little attention has been paid
to his love for horses. A study OF this
side of his nature would reveal some in-
teresting facts. In Egypt Napoleon or
dered the capture Of every horse ridden
by the Mamelukes where capture was
possible. Nearly every horse taken was
shipped to France, as many of them
were Of the Arab type. One OF the
ships on which some of the captured
horses were shipped was wrecked in at
tempting to escape from English frig-
ate. Another ship on which Junot
sailed was captured, and Junot was
made prisoner. When Napoleon heard
the news, he expressed more regret for
the loss of the horses than he did for
that of his favorite secretary, after
ward marshal of France.
The horses that arrived safely on
French soil have left their mark on the
horses of France and this country.
Their descendants can be seen every
day on the streets of New York. They
have driven the Clydesdales and Eng
lish shire horses out of the Ameri-
can markets, and the smoothly turned,
trappy, rapid walking. active Nornans
and Percherons are the result OF the
capture of the horses of the Mamelukes
by Napoleon in Egypt. Their blood
lines were so strong that the grays pre-
dominate, and it is common occur
renee to see horses that weigh upwards
of one Thousand pounds with the clear
cut head, wide throttle, sharp-pointed
ear and beautiful, mild eye OF the Arab

ices Of the horse will ever be entirely
dispensed with. cannot conceive our
active Americans adapting themselves
to the pursuit Of pleasure IN carriages

kind Of motor but the horse. What
has made the bicycle 80 universally
popular but the one fact that It per-
mits of action on the part Of the rider,
that it affords excitement? For similar
reasons the carriage horse will al-
ways have friends and admirers; his
style, action and movement cannot be
duplicated or initiated. Az TO the
ordinary everyday horse, he Il certain

trfcitv has diseredited and replaced
him Is exemplified by the 4act that It
NO longer pays to breed horses that

Some years ago the light German
