STEADILY ENHANCING IFS FINAN-
DIAL STRENGTH.

Reasons are not wanting why atte ntion
should be directed TO the annual report
of the Union Mutual Life Insurance
Company, for 1t abounds with facts of
absorbing Interest TO the polioyholders In
particular, and the public In general, be-
cause of the large and successful financial
tran sactions of which It t-lls.
1t is NO small matter TO have located
within our midst the headquarters Of Il
progressive old line life insurance CON-
pany, the bushes Of which extends all
over this country and Canada and the
large collections for which are brought to
Portland and discussed from here. Some
Idea OF the magnitude of It's transations
is derived from the knowledge that Its
total income in 1898 exceeded sixteen
hundred thousands dollars, and that 1t
now has Insurance outstanding represent
ing S42, 222, 1854 in force upon Its books.
The assets OF the Company have increased
TO over seven and one-han million dol
lara, and the surplus has grown to
1914, 600. The significance of these figures
appears more pronounced when the gains
made during the first 1--we years of the
present administration of the Company
are exhibited, by which a thoroughly in
teresting story of progress is set forth.
Without particularizing. it is unnecessary
to make further com ment than that IL is
most emphatioally evident that the Union
Mutual is making rapid strides In the di
reotion of enlarged financial strength, all
of which is a source of extreme satisfac-
ton to the thousands OF Maine people,
who have observed with pleasure the
steady and conservative development of
this popular home institution.

characteristics OF a veritable boom. II is

little more in evidence than previously.
The greater portion Of the business done
consists of purchases by dealers them
selves. although, as a rule, where banu-
facturers have bought, they have been
obliged 70 pay higher prices or they have
not succeeded in getting the wool A
number of dealers are not offering their
wool at all, and are practically cut Of
the market. The advance N me price

TOPS REST ON 1882 ~

The live stock markets yesterday were
all quoted on lower basis. One Of the
western markets early sent out report
of weak to a shade lower, while one other
reported early steady to cents lower.
The tendency was downward and the To-
cal market, entirely in sympathy with the
reports from the other points, experienced
also q lower quotation. The quotation
on the local market was 21s cents lower,
bnd this was in accord with the ruling
tone Of the other markets, and was fully
On line with the reports sent out from
other western markets There was moth
ting choice offered in the hog division,
but at the same time the offerings gen
orally did not show an appreciate decline
in value or a marked low point in the
quotation Of prices paid. There was a
very fair line OF swine stock offered, and
1t all was sold at the best prices possible
IN cOns0nance with other live stock
points Besides the offered stock yarded
yesterday for sale, there were two cars
held over on the dirt pens, and these
two loads, along with the rest of the
hog stuff were sold readily and at good
prices. There was a notable strength to
the market in spite Of adverse reports
from other points. The tops of the day
raised up 21h cents, and rested on SO. 5215,
against $3.50 for the top price of the day
before. The tops Of yesterday, however,
did not materilly advance in grade above
those of Tuesday. In other words, the
prices paid yesterday for anywhere near
good hogs were in line with the figures
given out for hogs at the other live stock
centers. While there was no one load
which could be called fancy or prime, yet
there were a few punches which showed
either good feeding or else careful selec-
ton in buying. in most cases the latter.
The actual sales made for the day were
about the same as for the day previous.
All the cars yarded were soon disposed
of and at prices in line with other points
and in accordance with other western
markets. The few hogs held over from
Tuesday and the offerings in total for
yesterday were all sold easily and at good
prices. It was a very fair day on the
local trading, and the lower point for
sales was established long before the car
hogs commenced to arrive. All was sold
which came in, as was also the small line

the stayle lines are well filed and ready
for prompt shipment, and the specialties,
for which this house is so widely noted,
are also full and all orders either by mail
or from the travelling statesmen, are filled
promptly as soon as received.
Other markets yesterday were as fol-
lows: Chicago expected 5000 hogs and
received 5000, with $3.50 left over, against
1900 the day previous. The market was
quoted at 21h to cents lower. The esti-
mate for today is $1,000. Kansas City
received 1880 hogs, against q, 100 the day
before, and the market was quoted as
slow and ) cents lower.
While the quality Of the hogs offered
yesterday was not any too good, there
was an active trade in swine stock and
sellers We're in all cases satisfied. The
market while quoted as 2l5 cents lower,
was fully in line with all the other west
ern live stock centers, and in fact showed
a degree of strength. The lower tone was
sympathetic with the rest Of them, and at
no point could shippers from this south
ern belt have done so well.
