1t is to be hoped that the new admins
istration will lose no time in purchasing
a street sweeper. The present admins
1stration advertised for a sweeper, ex-
pending about $50 in advertising in pa
pers Of the East for bids. The bids
We're received and referred to a commit
tee. The committee recommended the
purchase of sweeper that was Offer
ed. At the last meeting of the council,
for some reason, it was decided to re-
ject all bids. The council concluded to
leave the matter to the new council to-
dispose of.
A city official said yesterday in re-
gard to this matter: There is really
very little use in having paved streets
unless we also have a sweeper to keep
them Clean At present large force
of men is engaged in the work of clean
ing the streets, but the work could be
done far more effectively, as well as
far more cheaply and eXpeditiously II
we had sweeper. The recent heavy
snow has resulted in the streets being
covered with an ocean of mud. and t is
almost hopeless task to keep the
streets passable. If we had a sweeper
the work could be done in very short
time. and Cnce well cleaned, the streets
could be kept in good condition with
compare live ease"
The difficulty is that the muddy sea-
son is apt to be about over before a
sweeper can now be secured. 1t will be-
necessary to again advertise for bids.
and after the council reaches a decis-
ion a month will elapse before a sweep
err shipped in Chicago can arrive in
Butte. Nevertheless, sweeper is great
ly needed, and action in the matter
cannot be taken too quickly.

MARKET NOTES.

The AtchisOn directors have declared
a dividend of IA p. C. on the preferred,
which was "a above the amount gem
orally expected. By far the most i'm
portant feature in connection with the
declaration was the announcement that
it was a semi annual disbursement, and
that earnings are such that the man
agement considers a similar dividend
In January as practically assured. This
puts the stock on a definite 212 p, c.
basis.
The American Steel and Wire Com
pany has been represAA, ed by officials
as doing a business which would war
rant the payment of per cent divi-
bends on the common stock from the
start. Some of the largest interests in
this company are beginning to be more
outspoken in favor of a dividend not
over the per cent rate.
1t is understood that the usual quar-
terly dividend of IS per share-$2.5O reg
ular and $3.50 eXtra-wiil be declared
next week by the Mergenthaler Limo
type Co. Officials state that the com
pany is having largely increased or
ders as compared with last year, espe-
cially for book machines, for which
there has been a good demand.

The great mOney-maker of all the

holders since 1871 a total in dividends
of about $6O.0O0,00O on an investment of
a,250000. Its last dividend, paid not
long ago, of $40 a share, was the larg-
est lump sum ever paid to stockhold-
ers, it is said, by any American enter
prise. 1t was greater than the biggest
dividend declared by one of the best
paying eastern railroads which is cap
italized at fifty times as much. Among
some of the other mines the Anaconda

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, June 8.-The market took
on an appearance of vitality and
strength which associated with a bull
market at one period during the day
but the inevitable professional realiz-
ing seemed to take the snap out of the
market, and when the bears perceived
that the buying was not renewed with
any eagerness even after the realizing
offerings had ceased, they attacked the
market in the last half hour and
worked some very material recessions
IL prices.
Sugar, Metropolitan and BROOKLYN
Transit closed more than two points
below the high level though retaining
still good net advances in prices. The
opening of the market was surprisingly
tranquil considering the amount of
business that was being done a long
list of important stocks opened at ur-
changed prices and no stock in the lisJ
showed change of as much as a poin5
in the early transactions. 1t was evil
dent that there was a large bear party
in Sugar who were still unconvinced
by yesterdays dividend declarations
and they undertook to force the price
of that very uncertain security down
By the time it had fallen two points
however, the decline met resistance of
kind it was not in the power of the
bears to overcome. Their experience
during the remainder of the day was
not an agreeable one, and the heavy
blocks absorbed at the high level was
convincing evidence of their distress.
The advancing price of refined Su-
gars, which was acquiesCed in by al
interests in the trade, seemed to bring
home to the bears that the conpeti-
ton could not be one of a very de-
structive character and that the op-
posing interests might be fairly re-
gsrded as installed in the position OF
insiders regarding stock market ma
neuvers.
The very buoyant tone of Brooklyn
Transit, Metropolitan and Mania titan
added to the discontinue of the bears.
Later in the day the Tobacco stocks
took up the advance. Yesterdays div
idend declaration on Atchison pre-
ferred had a very stimulating effect OIL
that stock, as well as those of all grain
southwestern stocks nearly all rose
over point and pretty much the whole
railroad list responded in sympathy
the only laggards being a few southern
roads. which were affected by selling
for London account. The announce
ment of a further shipment of Sl,00O.-
900 of gold on Saturday, making a to-
tai of So, 500,0 900 on the movement, was
without influence in the market. This
outward movement of gold is now gen
orally understood TO be due to the spe-
cial inducements offered by the bank
Of England to secure a replenishment

of it's reserve. There are limitations
of similar pressure from Russia and
other continental powers, though no
authoritative information can be Sc
cured on the subject.
The Iron and Steel stocks were con-
spicuously heavy all day with one or
two exceptions, though they did not
suffer materially in the later declines.
Large gains were shown by a number
of railroad stocks seldom traded in, IN
Guiding Iowa Central preferred, Min
neapolis, ST. Paul and Sault Ste. Marie
common and preferred, Hooking Val
ley preferred, Evansville and Terre
Haute and Des Moines and Fort Dodge
preferred The tone at the close was
decidedly weak.

proved strength and an increased vol
ume of dealings as the day progressed:

Boston, June S.-Wheat opened steady

4 to &c lower in Chicago, Liverpool's
poor response to our strength of yester-
day starting the market weak and en-
couraging moderate local selling at the
start, and a slight decline in prices. The
market was a waiting one, with the
movement narrow and no foreign trade of
Importance either way. Northwestern re-
ceipts were SIS cars, against 246 the same
day last year.

sonable week for crops winter wheat

The Indiana statistical bureau has re-
ceived reports from 2SS towns. indicat-
ing that the crop will be about 10 900 900
and the smallest in 20 years. The COM
ing government report tends to weaken
the market, as longs who have sold out
are disposed to wait its appearance be-
fore buying again. The general situation
is not weakened and after the govern
ment report is out of the way prices will
go higher
The New York stock market opened
steady and comparatively dull. and large
ly professional. The low range of prices
in London influenced selling. but the stock
was well taken, and after the first half
hour the general list became animated
and prices rose smartly all around.
