REPRESENTATIVE SALES.
SHIPPERS ARD NOTES.

The cattle trading yesterday was prac-
tically nil There was one bunch of SO
head of fine stockers driven in by Com
modore Hans Peoples from Furley, be-
longing to Mr. Henry Schweiter of this
city, which will be on sale today. There
were 3 cows averaging 10 pounds sold at
S. 40, and one COW, go pounds, price So
Steiner & Blair Of Lyons were shippers
bS heavy hogs which sold at good bulk
prices.
Jeff Houston had in a good load Of
hogs from Ponca City which sold at top
prices They were medium weights.
D. McNaghten of Newkirk had in a car
of light hogs of good grade Of stock
which sold without dock at good figure
]. w. Hannigan of Deer Creek was a
Shipper Of very fair mediums which were
weighed up after the close.
Mr.. George W. Knorr and Mr.. Sever
ance were business callers at the yards
yesterday.
Mr. Austin F. Neal, city editor of the
Eagle, was a visitor at the yards and
packing house yesterday afternoon.
on account Of the official ceremonies of
the laying of the cornerstone Of the Chi
eago postoffice, there was no provision
market yesterday.
1t was a very fair Monday at the Dold
works. There was good line Of Jobbing
and express matter and satisfactory
showing in the straight car line.
From the Price Current, October 6:
Under the recent cuts in freight rates
from the western points, there has been
a very large movement of meats of late,
which should be expected to be followed
by lessened activity in demand Temporal
rily The prices Of hogs have been well
sustained under the ability of packers to
dispose OF a liberal proportion of meats
fresh This has had an influence in low
ering the stocks OF meats cured and in
process of curing in the large markets.
There is prevailing more or less expec-
tation Of tendency to lower prices In
the near future, based partly on the I'M
favorable comparison in exports of pro-
duct Of late. But it should be remember
ed that the movement year ago was ex-

BEST PRICES EARLY
Stocks Drift Downward, Los
ing Opening Gains.
BOND MARKET WEAKER
Situation Little Changed in
the Money Market.

New York, Oct. 9.-Buying by arbitrage
houses for London account made the
highest prices of the day in the general
list at the opening. AS soon as that de-
mand was satisfied the market began to
drag. There was some support when
prices of the Iron and Steel stocks were
bid up, but the fact was obvious that
there was no vital demand for securities
and the downward drift was renewed.
By the close of the day the gains were
wiped out except in a few cases. Steel
and Wire was an exception and rose 3
points on reports of new properties &C
quired, most of the grain being retained.
Sugar and Tobacco enjoyed their persent-
age of strength, but both closed at net
losses. There was some large buying Of
United States Leather, but its gain was
not maintained. Omaha preferred, which
last sold at 1S5, was offered at 1S3 and
from that down to 176 without takers. st.
Paul preferred sold early at III and later
at 1G9. The bond market also was rather
weaker than has been the case up to this
time, rejecting the high prevailing rates
for money. The situation in the money
market showed very little change, loans
being made as high as 10 per cent and as
low as per cent. The majority of loans
were made at from TO 10 per cent.
Gold shipped from Europe is now in New
York vaults, and no more is to be ex-
pected for the present from that source.
1t was reported that the treasury de-
partment had decided to anticipate the
November payment of interest as was
done last year, but no announcement OF
such decision came from Washington. The
detailed statement of New York banks
on Saturday showed that more than half
the members of the clearing house are
still below the legal reserve limit and the
necessary consequence was a further call
ing of loans. Banks in the west and even
in Canada are reported to be placing call
loans on the stock exchange. The calling
of loans by New York banks which is
thus made necessary, rushes up the call
loan rate in New York and the western
banks are getting the advantage Of the
higher rate for their surplus funds, which
are placed in Wall Street. Earlier in the
session Wall Street expected to be re-
lieved from the usual pressure for crop
moving money, on account of the large
reserves in western banks. But the lat
ter have found a more profitable method
of conducting operations. Sterling ex-
change eased off in sympathy at Paris
and Berlin. but held stiff in New York
for demand bills and cables. Closing
prices of stocks were as follows:

WHOM ITOMEN N4RRY

Memphis Commercial-Appeal
''Not one woman thousand ma:ries
the man she wants. says Mrs. White, presi-
dent of the California Club, large women's
organization. This is sad revelation
pecially to those who were taught to believe
in the old saying: GA woman can marry
any man she chooses Mrs. White, who
presumably knows what she is talking about,
claims that women do not choose their hus-
bands because it is not permitted them to do
SO. They must take what they can get as
did the industrious Maud Muller of the poem.
Woman dare not show a preference unless
she desires to shock society by exhibition
of indelicacy and repel the man she seeks
who looks upon pursuit as his divine right.
''Society is simply marriage market,'' con-
tinues this emmnent authority. ''Our
young women trained and educated and
groomed with the one end in view of making
a good showing in this marriage market-of
increasing their value. All the accessories
of fashionable society, the environment, the
amusements and the Dress arranged and
designed for the purpose of accentuatng and
calling attention to feminine charms. Our
men patronize the market, inspect and Sc
lece. Woman simply accepts and subscribes
to the conditions, and she does SO because
she wishes to- Mrs. White contides TO us
the information that woman is not the ideal,
ethereal, angelic creature poetic fancy paints
her. She is material and calculating.'
Mrs. White is something of an
conoclast from the masculine view
point, and yet she talks about
her sisters in the conventional womanly way.
Men like to consider women angelic, and
they like to express themselves admiringy
of woman's beauty, but it is perilous
pleasure, in the presence of wife sweet
heart, because woman who has passed
beyond the gushing insncer,ty of her teens
is apt to over another woman's beauty,
! unless for effect; she begins to doubt it's
existence. Hence it is obvious that all
women not angelic even good natured.
Mrs. White bears ample testimony to this
fact. More than one woman in one thousand
marries the man OF her choice. Sacrifices
have been made, of course, and marriage

THE GOTERNORSH/P.

Although the time for the nOmi-

North Louisiana is entitled to the
governor and no doubt that sec
ton will press its claims vigorously.
Snyder, Of Tensas seems to be the
Heard and Ogden have not de-
veIoped any strength and it seems
to be the concensus Of opinion that
Blanchard has had his share of the
good things political. Tine lawyers
say he makes good judge and
there is no reason why he should
not stay where he IS. Judge Law
rason is conceded to be most emf
nensly qualified for the high office
to which he aspires, but he has not
yet displayed those qualities which
make the successful modern
politician. Gov. Syndcr is an able
man, experienced in public affairs,
and a consistent party man and
enjoys great personal popularity.
He has as host Of friends
through out the State who will stick
to him. congressman Broussard
is not letting any grass grow under
his feet. He has been training
with throughbreds for some time
and he will make good race. He
is bright young fellow, has
magnetism and possesses the
elements Of leadership. Not one
of the candidates is unfriendly to
the administration and it is belived
that the governor will serenely
pursue a course Of strict neutrality.
The governor knows how to be
neutral and if he wants to keep
hands off he will do so with the ease
and grace of the true diplomat.
