The Stock Market.

New York, Sept. 15.-Very large amounts of money found their way into stocks and bonds to-day, and the apathy and depression which have hung over the stock market during practically all of the month were com- pletely dissipated. Even Sugar, which at the opening showed some continued apprehension on the part of holders regarding the formidable competition impending in the trade, yielded to the prevailing influence and more than re- covered it's early losses on very large transactions. Manhattan, another standing resource of the bears, resisted attack and rose with the general mark ct. When these isolated cases of weak ness were overcome the whole list moved vigorously upwards and it was evident that a bull movement was in full force again. The late uneasiness over the future of the money market had completely disappeared. Ruling rates were not lower but confidence was felt that they would not go high CT. The calculations by the treasury officials that the payments of the bal ance of subscriptions on account of the new bond issue would make no further demands upon the money market and the additional decline in exchange, both continental and sterling, were the fac- tors which served to relieve apprehen- sion. Mercantile paper was bought here for the account of western banks, although the movement of currency frnpo Now York continues
 The most conspicuous movement to- day was in lower grade stocks with div idend prospects and the Pacifics were clearly the leaders. They were ad- vanced in London before the opening here and the New York market took up the advance where London left off. There was also a very conspicuous movement in the industrials, these stocks showing advances at one time of from to over points. There were no reactions of any importance during the day and the closing was firm and generally near top prices.
 The confidence in the money outlook was reflected in the bond market. where there was large absorptions of mortgages of all grades at advancing prices. Total sales s3,61O,OOO

Sur veyors have been at work on the Fair grounds several times during the past week, laying out the grounds, but of course, nothing could be learned from them A Stamford man, in a position to know, informed reporter that the above facts were true He also said that the Stamford parties who control the property had fixed a reasonable price on it, and that there was but llt- tie doubt that the deal would be con- summated. From another source 1t was learned that the price set is $1S, ,O00 It is a well known fact that is is only matter of short time before the Danbury road will be double tracked to accommodate the freight traffic over the Highland division from New York state to Danbury, and then over the Danbury division. This fact will make the fair grounds @ most desirable site, while the location of the repair shops there will be boom for NorWalk. This is a matter that Norwalk people should do their utmost to push along, as it will be benefit to all sections of the town

Activity in Preferred Shares of Cleve- land, Loratn and Wheeling Railroad,

New York, Sept. 15.-The activity in the preferred shares of the Cleveland.
 Lorain and Wheeling railroad is attrib- uted by those in a position to know to the fact that this road is to form one of the various transportation lines which are to serve as auxiliaries to that vast enterprise, the Federal Steel company. This gigantic corporation now owns the Chicago, Lake Shore and Eastern, and Chicago Elgin and Joliet, whereby connection is made and it's products delivered to all lines centering at Chicago. With it's own lake service of boats, ore is brought from the com pany's own mines direct to it's smelters at South Chicago and Milwaukee This company is it's own coke producer, own- ing and operating some of the largest ovens in the Connellsville coke region. With the control of the Cleveland, Lo- rain and Wheeling railroad, supple mented by the Federal Steel company's S own fleet of lake steamers from Lorain, this colossus among corporations can connect its coke ovens with it's fur naces and mills by it's own lines of transportation, thus saving the hun dreds of thousands of dollars now paid other companies. It is to be borne in mind that the Federal Steel company was organized to lay siege to the mar kets of the world, and the importance therefore of practically reaching the Atlantic seaboard by it's own lines is at once apparent.

 MIR. WILLIAMS COMES HOME.
Stamford Klondlkers We'll, But Not
 Wealthy

Stamford KIondikers Well, But Not
 Wealthy.
 William Williams, member of the
 Stamford and Norwalk party, who
 has been expected home from the Klon-
 dike for the past few days, arrived in
 Stamford Monday night MT. Williams
 left Valdez August 27, with two other
 members of the company, Messrs. Ben
 edict and Lawrenche of Litchfield. MT. Lawrence accompanied him to New
 York while MT. Benedict remained in
 Seattle.
 MT. Williams has been greatly bene- tited in health by the trip, but feels a
 mite disappointed that the company
 has not had better luck. Patrick Milan
 alonthe Stamford man; Barney Galsta-
 di and John Potts of Westport, and
 Fred Getner of Wilton are now at Port Valdez, waiting for a boat to bring
 them home also.
 This leaves only fifteen out of the original thirty-five members of the Connecticut and Alaska Mining and
 Trading association. They are now To- cated at the head of Caltoona lake Messrs Moves and Butts are at the foot of the lake, building a log cabin and making preparations for the com ing winter, as some of the party in- tend to remain over until spring. Lind say Stead is attending to the store where the trade has greatly fallen of lately. Much prospecting for gold has been done by the party, but no pay l ipt h yst rIa ln,. of the party, and in fact the thousands
 of miners in the Copper river district have reached the conclusion that they have been deceived and duped by re- ported gold findings along the Copper
 river. At a meeting of these miners
 held recently, set of resolutions was drawn up denying the report of Cap tain Abercrombie and others upon the resources of the Copper river district as a warning to others who might be influenced thereby. Copies of these
 resolutions are being brought back by the returning miners.
 The experience of the Stamford an6 Norwalk party has been one of ex. treme hardship and peril, but many o1 the reports published by certain news. papers MT. Walliams stamps as false | hoods. He referred to a recent repor sent by one Knight, describing the aw. 1 ful condition of the Stamford party who had lost all their belongings, as without foundation. The party has provision enough to last them ter years, if necessary. and all are in the | best of health. Even Lindsay Stead has entirely recovered from his broker | kneecap. MT.

was considered sure sign that others of

reason in the world why the weakness
should be allowed to develop. Keep the
