action of the Liverpool market, which, in
spite of yesterdays advance, opened
slightly lower; a weak feeling on the

were also current of a sale of a big block

duce-Review of Trade.

New York. Feb 1.-The stock market
was under liquidating pressure to-day,
but the strength of some special stocks
and manipulated advances of others
made the market exceedingly uneven.
There were numerous halts in the liuui-
dation during the day and partly sue
cessful attempts To achieve rallies. so
that the day was one of constant
changes, some stocks mounting upwards
strongly while the market was tending
downward.
There was every evidence of continued
heavy selling to take profits in some of
the most prominent favorites in the re-
cent speculation, notably Northern Pa
cific Union Pacific and the Nanderbilts.
Quite a large element of the professional
traders sold the market with good deal
of vigor and confidence. Nevertheless OF
ferings We're very we'll absorbed ana
most of the net losses of the day are
confined to fractions. The early trans
actions showed positive strength under
combination of influences. Among those
was considerable buying for London
There was quite a large volume OF buy
ing orders from commission houses also
during the day. The new securities of
the Union Pacific company in the unlist-
ed department advanced with something
of rush in view of the opening prices
and impaired strength to the whole mar
w
buying orders, the bearish tendency Of
traders obtained the ascendency. There
were various reasons given to account
for the decline. Among them was the
apparent hopelessness of agreement as TO
dates on the expected Klondike business
Rumors of losses sustained by local
bank through injudcious loans encour-
aged the reactions. The rates for eN-
change hardened a shade on investment
induced by the low rates for money
which continued to work to an earlier
basis.
The days exchanges "a the local clear
ing house went to the enormous total
of $204 221 .925. rejecting some very heavy
financial operations. The details of these
could not be ascertained. The bond mar

A QUESTION OF LAW.
To Whom Does the Bullion Belong That
Was Stolen by Wright"

Great Falls, Feb. 1.-The release Of
Ensign Wright upon habeas corpus pro-
ceedings leaves a peculiar question UNI
solved. The sheriff has in his posses
sion the bullion which Wright claims
he stole. but which the law says he did
rot. Who is to get ii and to whom does
il belong? Wrights attorney has made
a demand on the sheriff for it, but that
official declines to surrender it To any
one until proper proof of ownership is
established He is doing little law
business himself
{ He says that Wright told the super
intendent of the smelter John j. Case
that he had taken that particular metal
from the smelter and that it belonged
to the smelter. This statement was
made in the presence of several persons
and constitutes practically a restitution
on its face. Now the court has decided
that Wright did not steal the bullion.
Wright claims that it belongs to him
self. the smelter knows that il is its
property because Wright told it So
and the sheriff has possession of it. If
it does not belong to anyone save the
man in possession. then Sheriff Proctor
should have it, following the ruling of
the court. Besides in making the arrest
he was thrown from his buggy and had
his shoulder badly wrenched. and it
would help pay expenses. Until the
question is settled he will keep il, any
way.

peculiar character. Some three or four
years ago he had a contract with COM
pany which was developing Il mine up
in the Sun river country. The acti.e
officer of that company was Joseph Lar
gent. Trouble arose over the contract
and finally JONAS brought suit for ball
ance which he claimed was due him.
The matter was fought out in the courts
and it was shown that Jonas did not
have the beginning of a suit. He was
utterly defeated.
Then he sought to settle the matter
outside of the cour s and Of the law.
He sent a challenge to Mr.. Lars2nt.

very much Of joke. He had it planned
in his mind that he would suggest that
the challenged man would have the
right to select the weapons That was
about all of the code of honor which he
knew, but that was enough for his pur-
pose. After he had induced the bellig-

would then suggest that two corrals be

pistol they must climb the fence and go

short talk With Jonas. He was found
in the yard. When asked If he had
meant the challenge he stated very en-
phatically that he did. He was Wild
looking German and his appearance add
ed force to his words. The reporter got
part way through with his proposition.
but the situation grew painful. He could
feel himself shrivelng up before the
wild mans rage and all he asked was
To get out of the thing safely. Jonas
was willing to fight with anything that
would produce death and the more
deadly the weapon the better would it
suit him. That sort of man is not to

willing that the more prosaic methods
of the law should be evoked.
Jonas was arrested shortly after on
the statute prohibiting duelling and was
given six months in the county jail. He
was released later ON his promise to be-
have himself. He kept his promise. Be-
fore his death he worked at the coal
mines at Belt for quite time and final
ly died of some lung trouble. leaving his
family practically destitute and they
have been assisted by the county since.
