San Francisco, Nov. 26.-The Chron-

the murdesous highlander societies.
These business men have signed a
compact Co submit no further to black

the higkbinders will be forced to leave
the city or go to work.
Over 90 highlander societies are af-

the exact membership of these societies

the neighborhood OF 1900 All of these

and there has been no rain for weeks.
The course of the fire is through the

The wind is blowing hard from the
north.
Thousands of sheep are in danger,
and are being rushed to places of
safety. Should the wind change to the
south, which is now indicated by clearer
skies, the danger will not be so great,
otherwise there is no estimating the
probable destruction. So far only two
ranches have been destroyed, but many
are now exposed.

New York, Nov 26.-The latter part
of the day showed an improvement in
business on the stock exchange on the
volume Of transactions, and the in
crease of values over those recently
prevailing The standard railway
stocks, however, continued to be a good
deal neglected, and the movement Of
prices in them was very narrow. The
whole list Was depressed during the
early part of the day, under the infiu-
ence of lower prices for Americans in
London, and quite active selling here
for London account. This was espec
tally marked in st. Paul. and this stock
failed to recover at any time to We'd
uesday's close. Its weakness was due
to the October statement of earnings,
which showed an increase Of less than
1900. So far as this statement bears
on the general situation, il is to be
taken into consideration that st. Paul's
earnings last month were the largest
of the year.
The Improvement in the market left
the railway list with net gains, but
they were of the narrowest in many
cases.
INTEREST IN SPECIALTIES.
The chief interest in the market cen
tered IN the specialties. and these all
developed strength before trading had
been long in progress. Manhattan was
most conspicuous in the dealings, and
advanced quite steadily and strongly
throughout the day, closing at a net
gain OF ~. There was no news TO ac-
count Cor the strength of this stock.
Sugar also showed q marked recovery
from its recent depression. and closed
25s higher than on Wednesday.
EXCHANGE ADVANCED.
Today's trading reflected nothing in
the general situation, the news Of which
continued to show Improvement. The
actual rate for London sterling eX-
change advanced Is additional today.
Some of the demand for long sterling is
for use in the operation which involves
the lending OF funds abroad. There
was also said to be some buying of long
sterling FOR speculation, in the belief
that rates OF exchange viii advance by

trade may have shifted b ythat time.

Trolley Line In Fox River Valley.

Green Bay Gazette: The present
visit of eastern capitalists to the Fox
River Valley for the purpose of looking
over the proposed route of the inter
burban electric railway line is encour-
aging. All who have examined the
plan carefully are of the opinion that
it is not only feasible but that it would
be highly remunerative one to the
investors.
With such men as Henry c. Payne at
the head Of the enterprise and with
eastern capital at its back the scheme
is sure to be a successful and paying
one and in all probability it will not be
long ere Green Bay and Oshkosh and
all intermediate points will be con-
nected by an electric line such as is
now in use between Milwaukee and
Kenosha.
The project has the best wishes of
this end of the line at the present time
as it will have its hearty cooperation
when the plan is put into effect.

A WORD FROM ALBERT zENs.
He Claims That He Was Disseminated
Against on AccountEof Beer Question.


Mr.. Editor: SO much has been said
and so many insinuations have been
cast out concerning my application tor
a retail liquor license that | feel
that the situation should be placed
before the people.
In the f1rst.plaee, why was l refused
license? Simply because proposed
to sell Chicago beer. If it had been
Milwaukee beer proposed to sell, does
any one doubt for a moment that
would get license? If I went to the,
representatives of either of the big
Milwaukee brewers represented here
and asked to sell their beer [ would
get license the moment l filed a
proper bond and the council would
meet to act upon it. This is matter
of fact and condition of affairs in our
common council the citizens of Keno
sha ought to know about. There is
absolutely no other earthly reason why
/ am not granted license. | con-

TWELFTH ANNIVERSARY.
The Rev H. Thompson Long Pas
torate.

The Rev. 81. Thompson begins the
twelfth year of his rectorship of ST.
Matthew's church tomorrow. This is
one of the longest pastorates in the
church history of Kenosba.
Rev. Thompson's work in Kenosha
has been a. noble one, and ST. Mat
thew's church has experienced a great
advancement under his conservative
control as rector.
When he came to this city twelve
years ago he found the congregation of
the church struggling along with an
unfinished church on its hands.
A few years later the church was
completed and beautifully decorated
through the hard labors of the rector.
Rev. Thompson, however, did not give
up the work with the completion of the
church, but succeeding in purchasing
parish house and fitting up the Guild
hall for the uses of the social societies
of the church. Rev. Thompson is a
favorite with his own congregation and
is popular among the other pastors of
the city.
