Stock Jobbers Wonder Which Way the
Political Cat VIII Jump.

FOi1tical Cat VIII Jump.
LONDON, Oct. 1.-The Times and
Echo continue to comment upon the
American political campaign. 1t says:
We would think Bryan's chances were
diminishing in America but for the
evident strain on the imaginations of
the people on the other side. We are
still of the same opinion as we have
been all along, but the Democrats are
not quite as soundly beaten as the peo-
pie whose existence depends on their
defeat make out. The financial out
look is somewhat modifying itself
There is no real Improvement, how
ever, in trade or in Wall street, but
the conspirators who have been bleed
ing the market are a little afraid they
have overdone it, and prices have been
temptingly put up.
1t is entirely professional booming
for the stock-buying public is wisely
standing aloof both here and in Am
erica, but the American stocks will
bear watching.
Meanwhile there is an ominous ebb
in the expansion of trade The August
report of the Government Board of
Trade shows decrease in the imports
as compared with the same month of
1895 of nearly $11,000,000, and in the
exports for granted that the terrible
decline in American trade and the un-
certainty of American politics is main
ly responsible for these conditions.

ELECTIONS IN CoNNEcTICUT.
Approximate Republican Majority Fif-
teen Thousand.

HARTFORD, Conn, Oct. 7.-Of the
1876 towns in the state, elections were
held in 162 yesterday. Returns have
been received from 146 of these towns,
those not heard from being isolated
and without wire communication, and
containing so few voters as to be of
inconsiderable Importance. OF the 146
towns heard from 1913 have elected the
Republican tickets, which shows gain
of twelve towns over the election of
last year. These towns have given a
Republican majority averaging about
100, indicating an approximate ma
jority in the state of $4,000.

Modest In Their Claims


Modest In Their Claims.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, Oct. 2.-The Demo-
cratic managers are quite modest in
their claims as to the result of the
Georgia State election, which occurs
next week. They announce that their
returns indicate that the State will be
carried by the Democrats by safe
majority, the meaning of which is thus
stated:
''It will be remembered that in the
present State campaign in Georgia the
Republicans and Populists have fu,
sion ticket in the field, consequently
the Democrats will have to overcome
the united strength of both parties.
The best posted Democratic leaders in
the State say that Democratic major,
ity of $4,000 will be great victory for
Democracy and may be accepted as a
criterion for a Democratic majority
for Bryan in November of not less than
$4,000 to 7O,O00''

The HERALD is in a position to state upon
the most reliable authority, that the Gordon

Yesterday superintendent Bertolette and
other officials arrived at Mahanoy Plane and
made thorough inspection of the plane
previous to the resumption ON Monday.
From there they went to Gordon, and down
over the Mine Hin road to Cressona.
With the resumption of Mahanoy Plane
and the abandonment of the planes at Cor
don orders We're issued to start up the Palo
Alto car and machine shops full handed, and
work at ST. Clair will be resumed at the same
time.
Orders have been received to resume OPP

The abandonment of the Gordon planes
will cause increased activity at Mahanoy

half q minute or so in sight of the audi

| teachers were requested to name every
article. An innocent curtain covered a
meaningless group of letters TO be
glanced at while one counted five, then
hidden again while the victims strug-
gled to write them on the boards at
they saw them.
The pinning up of a chart of phonic
sounds, with passing remark about
its being new and instructive, APP
peared afterwards to have been but a
base ruse to conceal a number of per-
pendicular lines at which a group of
teachers were to stare for second and
then say how many there were.
A test for hearing, TO name one or an
other note sounded singly after the
keynote and scale had once been play
ed; one for touch, to name an object, or
its shape. or its number of sides, by
briefly feeling of it with closed eyes.

ceased they began on the pupils, six of
whom were somewhat accustomed TO
these tests, and six were green hands.
They were tried on eight or nine eXer-
cises. similar to those already described

The trained set got 394 credits, the
unframed 337. The success of the un-
trained shows well for habits of atten-
ton in the Union School.
Miss Deyo and Mr.. Smith assisted
Miss Kelly in conducting these interest
ing test exercises. In closing, Miss
Deyo remarked upon the value of such
work in the school room, and expressed
hope that the teachers would be
pleased to try similar training in their
schools.
