The stock Market.


 New York, Oct S.-To-day's stock market furnished striking exhibition of the professional character of the trading. Developments over Sunday did not invite change of tactics by the leaders and on the resumption of business the raid against the industri- als was renewed. Tobacco, Consoldat- ed Gas, New York Air Brake and vari- ous other properties of this class gave way rapidly and although the reaction halted after the first half hour declines in the meantime had been effected ranging up to g points in New York Air Brake. Consolidated Gas figured for 6 points and Tobacco for points, the latter touching 113. The bulls then started in to retrieve some of the ground lost last week and after jump ing from one stock to another finally singled out Tobacco as a leader. The strength developed here soon permeated the entire list and prices forged stead fly upwards on animated dealings. h. terests which had been responsible for the late demorali2ation in the special ties also changed front and operated for the long account. This action was taken in order to shake off an undesir- able following, the market showing signs of having been oversold. This circumstance rendered manipulative tactics profitable and vigorous efforts were made to squeeze the shorts. The traders were quick to take advantage of the changed programme and any ef- fort to cover a large line was followed by vigorous bidding with sharp changes betwene transactions Con- tributory favorable influences develop ed as the day progressed to strengthen the market Arbitrage houses executed heavy purchasing orders and decline in call money rates induced more gen. eral buying for the long account. The market in detail presented many strik- ing features, and while realizations were extensive as the rise assumed headway the undercurrent of strength was not affected and final prices were well above Saturdays level. Some hesitancy was noted at the inception of the rise and the market became semi -stagnant, the traders apparently holding aloof until the disposition of the leaders became more clearly defin- ed. Extreme recoteries from the low point were ten points in Tobacco to 123; in New York Air Brake, and in Consolidated Gas. Sugar and Manhat- tan figured for three points and the balance of the list between 1 and 2.

Pittsburg and other professional clubs, to-day tried to kill his wife and had also planned to kill himself. This morning while in bar Der shop in an intoxicated condition he displayed a revolver and said he was going home to kill his wife and then blow his brains out.

unteer nurses; yet there has been a vast deal of extraordinary work, and all credit is due the regular hospital force. Its members have nobly risen to their opportunity for patriotic and ten der service. The public, too, should not be forgotten. Women's societies, the D. A.

 The attendant told me also how the nurses enter the hospital as training school. They need not have any previ- ous experience for entrance, h9 said All that is necessary is a doctors cer- tificate referring respectively to the ap- plicant's physical and moral health.
 All this was interesting, but two inn pressions of my call had wrought them selves so deep into my consciousness that I scarce could give my attention to the rest. One was of a still form on a white cot above the spotless counter pane, of which the face showed almost as colorless and so painfully emaciated Very sick!" l believed it.
 Was there a mother or dearer one yet waiting for that, sufferer? Was some woman gazing with intent, un- seeing eyes over the wind-waves of the western prairie or across the sun kissed nipples of the great lakes, or near to the scene of conflict, into those treacherous waters wherein the Maine and her brave sailors found their un- sought graves thinking of him, trying to call him back to home and her! And how will it turn-this battle of life and death, with death already shouting his awful smile of victory? What vii be that weary womans next news God alone knows.
 The other impression was not quite SC sombre, but just as deeply wrought It was of the look in the eyes of the boy from Wisconsin when he spoke o his western home.
