THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

Tho stock market was irregular and inactive
without important change in quotations IL was
purely professional affair, in which there was
no decided tendency in either direction last
prices showing. perhaps. few more net iosses
than gains. An excellent bank statement eX-
erted no influence upon prices. but IL served u
create further confidence In the strehsth VI
money conditions at this centre. surplus reserve
increased 81 493 800. while cash holdings were
larger by S76S4SO than they were a week
ago and loans 81, 243. 900 lower. The reducuoh
in loans reflects in great part speculative hqui-
dalton in the stock market, and the gain IN cash
is due to the receipts OF money from the IN
terror and the payment by the Sub Treasury OF
the last instalment on Philippine indemnity &C
count DEPOSITS increased $4,000. The total
reserve now stands at $34 ,631 .525. against $50
715 go at this time last year and S4o,99S,9O In
1891
Activity In stocks was confined to Sugar Re-
fning, Atchison preferred, Anaconda, Brooklyn

Efforts were made to depress Brooklyn hapid
Transit, but its final loss was less than one
noint Sugar was q strong feature; also Ana
conda and New-York Air Brake. Manhattan
WAS barely steady. while Metropolitan was weak
at a net loss Of nearly four points. The granger
end Pacific shares were firm. despite further al
verse crop reports. According to the inspired
advices from Western points the insects, such
as the chnch bug and the Hessian fly. are ex-
terminating the growing crops, but the effect OF
these reports is lost upon stock market pare
II weak holdings. The bond market again pre-
sented relatively more active operations than
the share department and prices were generally
strong and higher Money is moving Into bonds
and the time will come when 1t Will overflow
into stocks.

4 RUMoR THAT THEY ARE AFTER THE FLOWER
HOLDINGS.
There was report downtown yesterday. which
:oulc not. however. be confirmed. that the Wander
oilt interests had made an offer for the purchase
u the Flower holdings OF Brooklyn Rapid Transit
ttock. but that the offer. although the price named
was a liberal one. had been refused. 1t is under
stood that the Vanderbilt and Standard OIL Inter
tsts have recently increased largely their invest
ments in Brooklyn Rapid Transit that their hold
Ings. II combined. would now aggregate more than
majority; and IL is said also that the purchase OF
the Flower holdings by the Vanderbts. II II could
be arranged would give the latter interests control
Of the property. The Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany is now controlled by voting trust composed
OF Arson X. Flower. who was elected few days
ago to succeed his brother, the late Ex-Governor
Flower as voting trustee; Anthony y. Brady.
who has been associated with the Ex-Governor In
many large corporations. and F. p. Olcott. presi-
dent of the Central Trust Company The voting
trust is 10 continue until December, 1896: and
through their majority in that Board the Flower
interests will in all probability continue control
the policy OF the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Company
until the expiration of the trust unless they shall
meanwhile decide to dispose Of their large holdings.

Watertown republican. [volume] (Watertown, Wis.) 1860-1906, 1899-02-01

". G. WHEELER, of GAINESVILLE,
has introduced in the assem- bly, a bill
providing for the licensing of BARRIERS
In Wisconsin 10y state board OF ex-
aminers. In many respects it is
similar to the boards Of law, medi-
cine and plumbing examiners. 1t
does not apply to journeymen bar
bers who are already engaged in the
business, but within twenty days
after the act becomes a law every
barber shall file with the secretary of
the board an affidavit setting forth
his residence, how long he has worked
at the trade, and shall pay to the
treasurer of the board 81. The
members of the board are to be APP
pointed by the governor, who shall,
however. appoint at least one mem
union. who is to serve three years,
the others two, and the physician
one. Each mem Der of the board is
to receive S. der day for actual
services and three cents per mlle for
travel. The board shall hold five
open examinations each year in five
different portions of the state. Every
person passing g. successful examin-
alton is to be given a certificate and
registered in the records of the board.
No person is eligible for examination
unless he has served three-years
apprenticeship OF has worked in an
other state for that length Of time,
and no barber shop is allowed to
have more than one apprentice to
two qualified BARRIERS. Any person
found working as q barber without
having complied with the law is sub
iect to a fine of 500, or not less
than $40, or by confinement In the
county jail from ten to twenty days
A barber employing none other thar
himself, according to the bill, 10 de
MED the right to employ other thar
a journeyman, provision that will
without doubt, be insisted upon by E
large number Of BARRIERS in the small
towns throughout the state. Tn
law may be very good one If 1T &C
complishes what it aims at,-th
elimination of the danger Of Skin
diseases from the tonsorial art,-bu
we fear it's only result will be to pro
