possibly be.

born it had its mouth wide open, dis

cause Of the jaws being apart, MIR.
Estep made an astounding discovery.
Inside the mouth was one enormous

before seen in the history of the
world.-St. Louis Republic.

This year we have greater reasons

have heard some cases, however,

and demanded speech. Mr.. Bryan
smilingly declined and disappeared
within his car.
The train reached Elgin at 1925. From
a platform near the railroad he addressed
large and enthusiastic audience. In the
course of his speech he said: "If this
election fails to restore bimetalism it
simply means four years more of agita-
tion until this people have another
chance to express themselves. If it could
have been put down by commands or
threats or intimidation it would have
been put down long ago."

WALL STREET EXCITED.
At Noon Money ON Call stringent at
Is Per Cent-Quickly Advanced to
40 and 50 Per Contribution
Rates Advanced.

New York, Oct. 29.-Noon-Money on
call stringent at Is per cent. Prime
mercantile paper nominally @ 10. Sill
YER 6458. Lead $3.50.
1915 D. m.-Forty per cent has been
bid for money.
1850 p. m.-Loans have been made at
40 per cent; so per cent has now been
bid.
Bullion dealers report heavy demand
for cash gold and rates have advanced
from 3 1.6 to a @ q per cent. Calls on
gold are unchanged at l per cent for
thirty days; N for balance of the year.
Stock values receded sharply after mid
day on free offerings for both accounts
induced by apprehension as to monetary
situation. Call funds rose to so per cent,
but there were no large transactions
above the recent ruling figures, the high
figure being attained solely by bidding
up by traders in anticipation of marked
demand during the next few days and for
effect on stock speculations.
Bulletin p. m.-Call money is
now 100 per cent and in brisk demand.
THE GOLD sPEouLAToBs.
The somewhat apathetic speculation in
stocks to-day was enlivened by the ex-
treme stringency in rates for call money.
The first loan was made at 10 per cent.
The rate then jumped to Is per cent.
Finally, about 1890 p. M, broker who
wanted money was compelled to bid up
to so per cent before he could secure the
accommodation. The price then fuctu-
ated between rs and so per cent.
The immediate cause of the strlngencv
was the calling of loans by the banks
that wished to prepare themselves for
possible large demands tomorrow. The
banks as rule are reserving all surplus
funds for the accommodation of their
regular customers who are being sup
piled at 6per cent in proportion to the
business done. In some instances, how
ever, the banks called in their loans for
the express purpose of making turn in
their money on Wall street.
Later-3 p. m.-The last loan was at 80
per cent. The market closed at this Of
fered.
