Low PRICES FOR BIG SHIPS.

than to rent one. The ship Centennial

ration for $4,000 She registers 11s9 tons,
and arrived here from New York on the
I'd with an assorted cargo She will
be withdrawn from that trade and will
be put in the Alaska salmon trade. in
which she will be employed about five
months in the year. This is the fourth
ship purchased for that business in the
last few months, the others being the
Bohemia, Santa Clara and Sterling, all
of which have been we'll known in the
Cape Horn trade between New York
and San Francisco, The withdrawal OF
these four ships from the present lin

is most serious loss. The James Mes

ton on the goth for $40, 900, and is likely

AN ELIXIR OF YOUTH.


| There is an elixir Of perpetual youth
which may be compounded by every
tactful. intelligent woman IL she will
cultivate the power Of sympathy. Not
only should she throw herself often into
the sunshine of bright, hopeful spirits,
but she must let her own face be bright
and go through life like a fresh breeze,
forgetting her own tribulations in the
effort to bring light and sunshine to
friends, to servants, to the poor. To
possess the power Of sympathy is to
possess a rarer. sweeter charm than
wit or beauty. The woman ambitious
to please should also follow with inter
est the thoughts and doings of today:
but she must not shrivel to a mere
literary grashopper" continually skip
ping from page to page Of magazines,
newspapers, and novels, and indulging
immoderately in the mental dissipation
Of seductive monthlies. She should
keep one little period of the day apart
from the worries and hurries Of exist
ence for the peaceful association of the
English classics, and the grace of their
beauty will help to develop her into that
most fascinating of all people-an lin
teresting woman. From "The Guilt
walton Of Beauty" in Demorest's Mag

I'VE still place McKinley's minimum
vote in the electoral college at S02, and
include among the doubtful states Ida
no, Louisiana, Missouri, Montana,
North Carolina, Tennessee. Texas, Vir-
ginia and Utah, with eighty-cour addi-
tional votes. Advices from these states
are highly encouraging and We have
an excellent prospect to carry Missouri,
where a hot fight is now being made.
If favorable reports from the doubtful
states continue to arrive, the national
committee may be obliged to increase
its present estimates in the bulletin il
will issue just before the close of the
canvass. NJ. A. HANNA"

the country during the week Just end

Chicago. October 30.-Wheat opened
today with some show Of weakness.
Liverpool quoted that market irregu-
larry lower, Notwithstanding the ad-
vance Of 1 cent here yesterday. that
market being evidently affected more
by the tight money In the New York
market than the higher prices for
wheat. This naturally created a weak
'er feeling here to begin with and n
was not until 1t was seen that men with
great stakes in the market we're seiz-
ing the opening opportunity OF lower
prices to add TO their line that general
confidence was restored and the buil-
ish aspect Of the market was fully re-
established. December, which closed
yesterday at 71h, opened today at 71H
G71h cents.
The news from San Francisco was
quite bullish and the buying orders
from there were numerous A continu-
alton OF the Australian demand was re-
ported. The New York money market
was a weak factor early, as the strfn-
geney was said to continue with rates
about as sensational as they were yes
terday. but before noon the situation
had improved and the rate had fallen
from 100 70 25 per cent and this was
important help to the wheat market.

There are men. and men. There are

long deceived by the bdmbastic and

They are blatant buffers and nothing
more, Why, the articles published in

MONEY MARKET IMPROVED.
Action of Moneyed interests Prevented
Threatening Disaster.


| New York, October se.-The prevail
ing monetary conditions were again the
dominating influence in the stock mar
ket today. The rank and file Of the
traders, figuring upon even more
stringent rates for money on call than
ruled yesterday. had been prepared to
see a decline in stocks today. The active
movement however, was aggressiveIy
strong. the course of prices being gov
erned by the early intelligence recelv-
ed by powerful speculative interests
that combined effort would be made
by the banks TO prevent rates rising q
a point likely to precipitate a disaster.
London prices for American securi-
ties came higher and to this favorable
development was soon added the in
spring semi-official news that num-
Der of leading banks and trust COM
panies would pool their surplus reserve
resources, variably estimated at from
S15,OOO,OOO to $4,000, 900, and would put
out as much ntoney as might be needed
by legitimate borrowers. though at
rates not low enough to encourage
boarding. There were extreme fiuctua-
tions in call funds, ranging from 60
per cent soon after opening. to Sc per
cent at the close. In addition the BANK
syndicate loaned money for three days
transactions at 100 per cent. equivalent
to SO per cent.
