The Bank of England
Advances It's Rate
Five Per Cent.
BELL TELEPHONE PROMINENT.
Most Of the Boston Stocks
Held Their Own
Very Well.

All in all, it was strong market
in Wall street today, in spite of another
advance in the Bank of England rate
OF discount, to per cent this time, and
spite of the attractions of the second
attempt at yacht race. Money ruled
high on the stock exchange, ranging
from 10 to Is per cent. but that is differ
ent from 40 per cent, and the general
feeling on the monetary situation seems
improved considerably. London had a
better tone in it's market, with consols
improved further, and one of it's most
prominent American specialties, Louis
vile and Nashville, was bought briskly.
Some of the traction and other New
York local shares, also a few of the in
dustrials, displayed heaviness for a
time but they rallied well, and the
standard stocks maintained steadiness,
even flrmness, most of the day, although
fluctuations were narrow.
In Boston money was quoted at from
to per cent on the exchange; the
clearing house rate held at per cent,
but there is call money outstanding
lower than that, and new money is OBJ
tainable on the street at the clearing
house rate. Boston really has had little
share in the extreme monetary pinch,
largely for the reason that its specula-
tive house was put in pretty good order
before the intensity of the money mar
ket became fact. Most Boston stocks,
even the mining shares, and other spec
ulative specialties, are held well; Hqui-
dation of weakly held stocks has been
quite thorough and the position here
by no means unsatisfactory People are
taking per cent money market with
equanimity; stockholders in national
banks feel that they are in fair way
to share in the general prosperity which
has attended most investments, and
there has been no contraction of accom-
mediation to business borrowers. At 2
p. m. rs leading New York stocks aver
aged 3-16 higher than at the close yes
terday, and y higher than at the same
time yesterday.
Boston had one decidedly prominent
feature, namely. Bell Telephone, which
yesterdays net advance of So per share
added 81, gaining from 1853 to 3S6, and
holding the gain-S25S per share in two
days, and $2S thus far this week, going
ahead of the best price on record in the
past-3SO Feb. a. 1SS9-and establishing
a new high point. Back in 1850 Bel
sold as low as 76; three years later il
touched 299 in February, 1894 1t was
down to 163, and the highest last year
was 285. in August. Paying SIS pei
share per annum (s12 regular, So extra)
Bell at 1856 nets less than per cent OF
the investment-3% per cert, to be ex-
act. OF course suggestions OF melon
are current. Apart from this feature
and the usual interest in Sugar, there
was little Of interest in Boston. Pull
man was quiet but strong, at 1879. Co
chit was raided from II to I6h, rallying
to 1854.

MISCELLANEOUS STOCKS.
MARKET NOTES.

Bank of England has raised it's rate
of discount from Az TO 8 per cent.
The process of correction has UNI
questionably made it possible to engi-
neer another bull campaign the moment
political affairs abroad assume a more
peaceful aspect.
Room specialists in the more import
ant stocks say that the short interest
made on the decline since Thursday
last has been considerably reduced in
B. R. T.. Sugar, American Tobacco and
the grangers. and that legitimate COM
mission business continues extremely
limited, owing to the DEAFNESS of money
and the uncertainties of the political
situation on the other side.
Notwithstanding the recent quiet tone
in the copper market, the producers
have held firm for the most part at
1S7sc, although some secondhand cop
per has been offered at 1890.
Europe must soon wake up, and the
result is expected to be seen in the
placing of heavy orders. Foreign
stocks are low, and European consum-
ers may well be apprehensive.
The annual pamphlet report of the l..
& N. shows that there was an increase
during the year in the total funded
debt of $3040 900, but the net outstanding
funded debt decreased $413,000.
There were charged to operating ex-
penses for Improvements, additions and
equipment, formerly charged to con-
struction account $517.7S4. Charges to
construction account were $22, 254 only.
Cost of road and equipment increased
net $S45,S26, mainly representing the
Paducah and Memphis division i'm
provements.
The company's interest charges for
the current fiscal year are estimated
at net sum of S4,947, 1853 apart from
sinking funds and guarantees for out
side companies.

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Oct. 5.-The stock market
today continued to show marked in
difference to the disturbances in for
eign market on account of the war
scare, and of money difficulties as we'll
as to the continued stiffness of the local
money rate, Prices dipped at the
opening on the rumor of an invasion
of Natal by the Boer forces, and on
England's official rate of discount.
But the opening prices were for the
most part the lowest and the market
quite promptly set about retrieving its
decline. The liquidation for London ac-
count was of comparatively small vol
ume, sales not exceeding $4,000 shares
in fact the foreign stock markets were
| quite firm on bear coverings.
Coupled with the late rally in British
| consuls, the influence of the war scare
was thus much diminished. The I'M
dertone of the market for stocks was
very firm, and the bidding up process
| failed to bring out large offerings. A
| large number of stocks not usually
! dealt in which were brought into ac-
| tivity and, numerous odd lots which
| We're recorded on the tape. This latter
| feature is always indicative of the pre-
| serve Of the bargain hunter who is
buying stocks outright TO hold a safe
| investment. There is undoubtedly a
| growth of confidence that the stringent
| period for money is over.
| Some gold has arrived from Cuba,
and the sub-treasury has paid some
drafts from the San Francisco mint
on account of gold deposited there.
Next week the gold on its way from
| Europe amounting to over $1,000, 00O
| figure in the bank return. The rising
discount rates in London caused an
additional advance in the rate for
sterling exchange here, in Paris and in
Berlin.
The bond market was very dull in
sympathy with stocks. Total sales par
| value $1,275, 00O u. S. rs declined ~
new As u and the IS and IS u in the
bid price.

Howard, Crosby & Co. S Boston Letter.
Boston, Oct. 5.-Wheat opened nc over
last night, the Liverpool advance of from
sd TO Nd. being the feature and con-
sidered especially bullish, because 1t was
in spite of decline of 1c. in American
markets Wednesday. The foreign news
was puzzlng, with the Bank of England
rate raised, consols unchanged to * high
appeared rather mixed and apart from
the war situation 1t is possibly more
bearish than otherwise, the tendency
having been to sell on bulges English
houses bought freely at the start in New
York, inspiring an active demand from
local short there. Northwest receipts OF
wheat today were 1045 cars, against 1895
same day last week and lila last wear

Wire from Topeka, Kan. reports that the
grasshoppers have destroyed much of the
young winter wheat in half dozen coun-
ties. Price Current saws that there is IN
sufficient moisture for considerable
portion of the wheat area
There were fractional declines through
the general list at the opening of the
stock market this morning, due to the
further rise In the Bank of England dis
count rate and to warlike reports from
the TranSVaal. There was no selling
pressure, however, and there were numer-
Gus recoveries of ! per cent and over, Sc
that the market was soon carried above
the closing level of yesterday. Trading
by bull leaders, on the theory that prices
could be advanced easily against shorts
in the absence of any large offerings OF
stocks.
Sentiment in the room seemed more
bullish than at any time this week, but
buyers were inclined to be cautious The
firmer tone during the forenoon did not
bring large or widespread demand and
there was some talk regarding the bank
statement TO the effect that 1t might be
nnfavorable enough to check an advance
The commission business was light and
London was light seller of stocks al
the opening and again on the advance
during the second hour. The whole
amount Of the sales probably did not ex-
coed 1900 shares The covering OF
American Tobacco by shorts was a fea-
ture. The money market did not present
any new feature of Importance, except
that offerings of time money was some
what larger than of late. Call money was
in somewhat better supply, at from
per cent to 20 per cent, mostly 10 to 1E
per cent.
The buying of Louisville and Nashville
is accounted decidedly good and fairly
continuous. The Southern Pacific state
ment for August encouraged those who
have been buying that stock.

We clip the following question and
answer from the New York Sun. .Who
made the following remark, and on
what occasion was said remark made.
"No Irish need apply?' The words Tor
awhile were comno in advertisements
OF servants wanted. The story is that
Dean Swift and his Irish servan were
travelling near Cork and reached that
city then governed by some English men
He had fastened a sign on the gate to
the effect that Irish would not be nd
mitted. The dean passed in. Patrick
remained on the outside. He saw this
sign-and presently added this coupler :
whoever wrote this wrote it well, for
the same is written on the gates OF hell.
