ON CHANGE
What Was Done Yesterday on Wall
Street

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-The market re-
sponded to higher quotations at London
with a fractional rise at the opening, is it
responded yesterday with decline. The
market sank quite weakly under the heavy
realizing movement in the morning. Lon
don buying invited realizing sales and it
is likely that the failure of a large outside
brokerage house had something to do with
the heavinesS of the market. The assem-
blage of the st. Paul directors with
quorum present was the effective influence
in checking the decline on account of the
prevalent belief that an extra dividend
would be declared. The advance which
followed affected the other grangers by
sympathy and extended an improved tone
all through the list. The renewed strength
in the grain markets, the reports of heavy
traffic on railroads and the improvements
in earnings helped the rally Oregon Navi-
cation showed an increase of 906 for
August. The prospects of a settlement of
the coal miners strike caused some move
ment in stocks of soft coal roads.
Dealings in bonds again centered In the

United States old fours coupon advanced

Wheat made a gain of about &c bushel
today, December reaching the highest
point since August 23d, when it sold at

by sensational cable stories to the effect
that Hungary was a large purchaser of
Russian wheat to supply home deficiencies
Foreign houses bought futures in the fore
noon and later took about thirty loads of
actual grain. including a fair business for
French ports. Gables gave very little sup
port to the early market, but closed firm
with the most of the opening loss regained
Speculation broadened out little, stimu-
lated by renewed interest on the part of big
Chicago traders and belief that efforts
will be made to push wheat in Chicago
above the dollar point before the present
movement subsidies. Some of the local
bulls were talking 125 for September in
New York but conservative traders
secuted the idea. A belief that the govern
ment report would be bulish helped along
the bull sentiment. December sold from
90 to 1.02 and closed at 1.o11z. or Nc higher
than last night.

At the meeting of the city council last
night the clerk was instructed to adver-

SANTA ANA
SANTA ANA

SANTA ANA, Sept. 9.-(Regular Core
spondence.) Some time ago 1t came to the
notice of the supervisors that the Southern
Pacific company's branch line from Ana
helm to Alamitos had in some way escaped
the eagle eye of the assessor, and that as
a result Orange county was in. a fair way
to lose the revenue which would accrue
from its taxation. The assessors over
sight has been commented upon quite gen.
orally, but no official action was taken to
lrectify the error until yesterday, when the
supervisors instructed their clerk to notify
the state board of equalization that the
line had been omitted from the assess
ment, although 1t was complete and in
operation on the first Monday in March.
The line is nine miles in length, and at
the established rate of $1,000 per mile, the
road if assessed will increase the valua-
ton of Orange county railroads by $685.

part of the afternoon was devoted to
speeches. Hons. N. Blackstock, w. W.

Prof. ]. P. Greeley is the victim of too
much legal advice of a conflicting nature.
Several weeks ago the professor desired
to procure several hundred copies of the

office, being closed this year. could not
furnish the supplies as heretofore. he ap-
pealed to the district attorney and was ad-
vised to have the registers prepared at the
cost of the county. He did as directed, but
when the bill for the books was presented
1t was rejected by the supervisors, who
in doing so, also acted on a written opinion
from the district attorney. Thus the latter
officials change of mind has been rather
expensive for the professor. who will
doubtless have to foot the bill
