The stock Market.


 New York, Sept. 9.-There was fur ther drastic liquidation in the stock market to-day at an expense to prices of stocks of between 1 and 3 per cent. per share in a great many cases. Dis appointment over the fixing of the St. Paul dividend at only 21s per cent. con- tinued the prevailing influence and no attention was paid to favorable devel- opments or to the indications of an easier condition in money. The selling was evidently in the nature of specu- lative profit taking and came from an element that has persisted in the confi- dence that prices were certain of a further advance. A great part of this confidence has been based on the sup position that the St. Paul dividend would be increased and would awaken a general activity and widespread out side interest as was the case with the increase in the Burlington dividend.
 There was a short lived period of firmness to prices early in the day and on demand to cover some of the shorts put out yesterday. This movement was encouraged by the failure of London to reflect depression on account of the St. Paul dividend, but the advance in prices was met by continued heavy of- ferings and by noon the movement to throw over stocks was In full force again and prices were tumbling throughout the list. Early gains in a few special cases were almost com pletely wiped out. Among those stocks which have recently been subject to attack on account of individual causes of weakness there was noticeable hesitency on the part of bears about putting out short lines. Manhattan and Brooklyn Transit were conspicuous examples. It was in fact evident that fresh commitments either on the short or the long side were not in order and the activity of the market was almost entirely liquidation pure and simple due to the hardness of the money market. There was also some dispo- sition to apply the ultra conservative standard adoption by the St Paul di- rectors to some other properties which have made more liberal disbursements of expanded earnings, and to question somewhat the integrity of the dividend thus established
 The distinctly easier tone of money in the afternoon brought little recovery in prices aside from that due to cover ing by the room traders. How far the easier tone in money is due to the in- crease In new government bonds avail able as security to release cash from the treasury and how far to the con- traction of loans incident to the stock market liquidation itself is now clear. The reduction of the call loan rate to 2is per cent resulted in the steadying of foreign exchange and a check to the advance of the London money rate. New York banks continue to lose cash very heavily to the sub treasury and the shipments of currency to the inter- for show a large increase over those of last week
 The bond market showed the effects of liquidation though to less degree than in stocks. Total sales S4,0O0000.

A NEW ToRPEDo-NET.

As protection against the action of torpedoes, our warships were provided with wire-netting shields, or crinolines, which can be extended by spars so is to form wall around the vessels sides. Upon which some ingenious inventor gave the travelling fish-shaped destroy CT a cutting implement at it's head which could penetrate the wire screen. A new form of crinoline has now been introduced which possesses a mesh of such construction that 1t cannot be pierced But the invention probably comes too late; for if any lesson is to be learned from recent events, it is that the torpedo in naval warfare is of such secondary importance that it may be almost neglected altogether. We have learned lately that fighting ships armed with modern guns need not get to close quarters to work terrible de- struction upon one another. A couple of miles separating the attacking vessel and that with which she is engaged is regarded as a near range; and no tor pedo is effective at a quarter of that distance. Quick-firing guns and accur- ate craftsmanship are the far more im- portant items to attend to, and Ameri- can perfection in both these respects has really determined the issue in the present war.-Chambers' Magazine.

WEEKLY REVIEW OF TRADE
QUIET CONFIDENCE IN FUTURE
 GOOD TRADE UN1BATED.

Conditions in Many Leading Indus-
 tries, Particularly In Iron and Steel,
 and It's Various Products, Are Of Com
 tinued Growing Strength.
 New York, Sept. 9.--Bradstreets to- morrow will says: The heat and holi- days have imparted an irregular ap- pearance to speculative and general distributive trade this week. General ly speaking, favorable basic features already noted still continue most in evidence, and the attitude of quiet con- fidence in future good trade is una bated. Conditions in many leading in- dustries, but particularly in iron and steel, and it's various products are of continued growing strength. The gen. eral level of prices of staples is the highest reached for five years past; railway earnings, favored by the en- larged movement of wheat to market are showing larger gains than have been recently reported, a good export demand for agricultural and manufac- >esA No PIobuNIo IS ICpOllSu, ldlluLS SS LS- main at a minimum, and reports of poor trade are conspicuous by their ire quency. Less favorable crop reports from abroad and good export inquiry are reflected in rather steadier tone in wheat and in advanced quotations for ocean freights. Corn continues to experience a-weather market, but pros poets of yield are still regarded as fa- vorable
 Following the intense activity in the placing of orders for iron and steel in the past few weeks has come a quieting in demand, but experiences of buyers and the very firm and, in some cases upward tendency of prices point to the conclusion that the Hull is due almost entirely to the mills b ing already heav- fly oyersod. Reports from the lumber trade throughout the country are of in creasing activity and firm prices, with possible further advances forecasted General resumption of operations in glass making has not yet occurred and complaints of heavy overstocks are common. Earnings of eighty leading railroads for the month show an in crease of 6 per cent over last year g heavy earnings, against a gain in July of only 1 per cent.

M'lv0R-TYNOAll.
h Famous Thought Reader Will Give
an Exhibition Of His Power.


Sunday evening. Oct. %. at the Mar
garet will Introduce to the public DIR.
Alexander j. McIvor-Tyndall, the fa-
nous English thought reader, in his
third visit to Anaconda.
DIR. McIvor-Tyndall is so well and
favorably known I'm this city that the
mere announcement of his appearance
should suffice to pack the theater on
Sunday night. o.
McIvor-Tyndall is not in any sense a
magician. He uses no apparatus. no
cabinets. no assistants. His wonderful
demonstrations are the result of a
highly sensitive mentality and far be-
yond anything which can be produced
by magic.
DR.. McIvor-Tyndall has the honor of
having given a private demonstration
of his wonderful gifts to the queen at
Windsor castle. before he had attained
his majority. The famous young
Thought a has since appeared be-
fore III most influential audiences in
Europe and America, and his marvel
GUS powers have been pronounced un-
equaled in, the value of psychic phe-
nomena.
One Of McIvor-Tyndal's earliest ex-
periments in ~telepathy was made with
Adalina Patti at the diva's own castle
In Wales. 1t was during McIvor-Tyn-
dalrs boyhood. while he was visiting
iio SoaSiiis IL oNnS an tStdtt du-
joining that of the famous songstress.
McIvor-Tyndalrs interview with King
Oscar of Sweden has long been the SUBJ
ject Of comment, not only on the conti-
nent, but also in England and Amer
lea. During a visit to Scandinavia in
1894. the thought reader was invited to
exhibit his wonderful power of thought
reading before the king. who vas great
ly interested by his remarkable feats.
At length King Oscar suggested that
McIvor-Tyndall reproduce a drawing of
the object which the king would have
in his mind. The thought reader was
securely blindfolded. a pencil and pa
per was brought, and holding the hand
OF King Oscar lightlysagainst his fore
head, McIvor-Tyndall traced on the pa
per the figure of a dog. Some one ex-
claimed that he had neglected to draw
the tail, but the king declared that the
picture was correct. as ne had been
thinking Of his former hunting dog,
whose tail had accidentally been shot
on In a hunting expedition. McIvor-
Tyndall appears in Anaconda on SUM-
day night for the last time in many
years. as he is on his way to Europe
for a p~rotracted stay. No n
be he sceptic or believer, can afford to
miss this only opportunity of seeing so
world-famed an exponent of the higher
powers Of man.

Significance of the scotch Verdict" II,
turned by the People of Canada.

turned by the People OF Canada.
The full vote at the recent special
election in Canada on the prohibition
amendment submitted TO the voters OF
the Dominion has not yet been declar-
ed officially. but enough Is known to
show that while ostenslbly there was
a majority In favor of the amendment
a large majority of the voters We're
either recorded against, or were indif-
ferent to, its adoption. Temperance
men and the opponents of temperance
legislation in various parts of the Unit
ed States have been drawing their own
deductions from the Canada plebiscite
and some of these would seem TO be
very wide OF the mark.
The amendment submitted invited
only an expression Of opinion on the
question whether the elector favored
at some future, indefinite time, the pass
& of an act of parliament prohibit
ing the Importation, manufacture or
sale of spirits, wines, ales, beer or ci-
der m all other alcoholic liquors for
use as beverages" The adoption or re-
lection OF the amendment was without
legal effect, and the purpose of the
plebiscite was, I'm fact, this only: To
disclose the extent of the uppo which
the project had: and those opposed to
IL could either manifest their dissent
by voting no. or by not voting at all.
h result being in either case the same.
The prohibition plebiscite. therefore.
was an enumeration officially taken of
the temperance men in the eight prov
inces, n from n point of view. at
