STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Nov ga general DISPOSE
ton Ito liquidate in speculative holdings
was manifest in the stock market today.
Early III the day some general strength
was manifested, which was due primari-
lily to the higher quotations cabled from
London. and which were aided by the
strength in special stocks, but the grow
ing stiffness Of money and the total alb
senee Of any outside buying demand dis
couraged the bull element, and they
were sellers of the whole list as the day
advanced. The weakness of stocks was
very well distributed, except for the
special collapse in Leather, and affected
all departments of the list. The de-
clines in the Industrials and Specialties
are rather greater, because the commit
ments for the long account i'm those
stocks were large. There was very
heavy selling throughout the railroad list
and large number of prominent stocks
in that department show net declines Of
a point or upward. In the Specialties
the average runs between j and points
for the leading stocks. An exception
should be made of the Iron and Steel
stocks, several of which offered good re-
sistance to decline. Steel and Wire and
<AIu6Tlcdn IIOOp were eAdU1lheS. AITeH-
/ ton was almost wholly centered in the
money market outlook. The continuing
demands on the New York banks are
Regarded as foreshadowing a still furth-
or decrease in the proportion of cash re-
serves in the next bank statement The
emphatic utterances of Treasury officials
against the policy Of any further mea-
sures of relief by the Government dssi-
pated the hopes that were prevalent in
Wall street yesterday. As the banks
have lost already to The Sub-Treasury
lsomething like $3000,000, since last
Friday the attitude of the Treasury is
| important. Shipments by the New
| York banks to their interior correspond
ents are reported to be on as large a
scale as last week. New York exchange
at Chicago fell again today to Zoe. dis
count compared with 10c premium at
1.-THE opening of the week. The ccntinu-
ed expansion in the interior need for
money and the absorption by the
Treasury by means of the surplus in
the revenues is met by the calling in
lof loans placed in the stock market on
stock collateral. There was a sharp fall

partly to an increased supply of cotton

larger volume. But the weekly state
| ment of the Bank of England showing
a progressive decline in the proportion
of reserve to liability precludes the hope

COTTON.
New York, Nov. 9.--It was day of
great excitement and violent pendula-
tions in the local cotton market. The
opening was steady at unchanged prices
to a decline of points, the loss result
ing from light local selling brought out
by weak cables from the future depart
ment of the English market. The
trade had anticipated AN announced up
lift abroad in sympathy with our em-
phatic rise of yesterday; but after open
ing ? points higher, Liverpool slowly
eased off. The investment public APP
Ipeared loath ito abandon its bullish ideas
and was soon taking cotton as fast as
offered. The end of the first hour saw
prices several points above the close of
Hast night with the undertone very firm.
Near midday, however, there was lull
in the buying movement, and under
struggling sales for profits prices grad
ually fell away, butt at noon were a shade
above the opening figures. The early
afternoon witnessed IA sensational break
iof II points under a concerted move on
the part of Wall Street commission
houses to take profits. During the slump
the greatest excitement prevailed and
for some minutes appearances pointed 10
"a general spill of cotton purchased on
the late rise. Staunch bulls stepped into
the breach thus made and commenced
TO buy heavily, and recuperation was
almost as sudden as had been the de-
cline. Throughout the rest of the day
the market was very nervous and readi-
~ influenced by orders as they arrived.
Reports that exporters We're accepting
all offers OF spot cotton in the central
and western belt. notably in Texas, not
withstanding substantial advance in
prices, served to allay the fears of IN
easy holders to some extent and check
ed any desire ON the part of the bear
faction to pound the market. The close
was steady at a net decline of 4 to 10
points.

SIMPSONS SERMON.
Took for His Theme the Words,
"By Your Fruits Ye Shall
Know Them"

Rev. W. j. Simpson, D. D., pastor of
-he Asbury Methodist Episcopal church.
delivered an interesting sermon last
evening before his congregation, TAX
ing as his theme, "By your fruits ye
shall know them" He spoke, in part,
as follows:
Some people think that man is governed
by notions rather than by laws and de-
sire to say in beginning that this is not
correct. We are governed 10y a great and
divine law. There are too many men liV-
ing today who spend their time arguing
beliefs rather believing something. Nine
out of every ten men are better able to
argue about the position they take than
to state firmly and uncquivucally the rock
which forms the foundation of their faith.
Man should live by believing something.
This affects character to n wonderful
degree and we must bear in mind that
the characters we are forming now are
the same we will have a millions years
hence. If they ere corrupt now, they will
be corrupt then; if good, they will be good
then.
How many of us there are who are
prone to interpret the laws for our own
benefit, but friends, you can't do this
with the laws of God. We can't use any
subterfuge with these divine revelations.
Let every man look down into his lnIt-
vidual heart and see if he is right In the
sight of God, and let us learn to act out
cur convictions whatever they may be.
We must also remember that men are
not made truly good by slightly mendiuS
their ways and refining their manners.
There must be a coming down to the
place where the blood of Christ flows.
Until the life of Jesus Christ is in man
he is OF in harmony with God
To be a true Christian means to be Il
full man; to become good tree bearing
good fruit and to keep on producing it.
Christ never deals with the old, lie
makes all things new He throws away
the old years and gives us new ones just
as we with is help may throw off our old
. sinful lives and put on new ones.
We must see for ourselves the sublimitY
and power of this salvation offered to US
by God before we can truly appreciate it
and when we have localized and concen-
trated all our thoughts on this divine
fact we will begin to realize the supreme
glory of it all.

PHIL RINsLAND's OPINION.
He Saw the Jeffries-sharkey Fight
Friday Night.

City Assessor Phil Rinsland is home
from the big fight at Coney Island
Friday night, more strongly convinced
than ever that Jeffries is the best man
of the present day. He has seen all
the big fights of the past decade and
keeps close tabs on all the goings on
in puglistic circles, which, coupled
with the fact that he has good judg-
ment in most things, makes his opin-
ion worth something.
Jeffries was not in as good condition
as when he fought Fitzsimmons, Mr.
Rinsland says and did not show any
thing like the aggressiveness that char
acterized his go with the lanky lad.
Mr.. Rinsland attributes this TO JEFF
fries sore left arm. He seemed 10
spare it as much as possible and for
many a round might be said to have
fought a one-handed battle, His con-
dition, too was not as pinkey as In
his first championship battle.
Had the thing done to a finish, Mr..
Rinsland says, Sharkey would surely
have been knocked out. He was so
badly done up that he had to be car
ried to his cab, while Jeffries was out
of his dressing room and mlngling
with the crowd as It left the building.

Remarkable as it may seem, James
Mccarthy, of Sport Hill, Dunmore,
was shot yesterday by his own dog
Jack.
so serious are McCarthy's injuries
that he had to have his right leg amp
utated above the knee last night at
the Lackawanna hospital and the doc
tors at the hospital are not sure that
he will recover.
Mccarthy is man of about 80,
married and well known in Dunmore
Yesterday afternoon he was out hunt
ing rabbits in the Dunmore woods with
two companions and brace of dogs.
Late in the afternoon the three men
were sitting down under tree, rest
ing.
McCarthys shot gun was at his
side. The gun was loaded and cooked.
Mccarthy stood up to walk to a log
some distance away and after he had
gone a few feet his dog Jack jumped
to his feet and bounded after him.
The dogs paw struck the trigger and
the charge the gun contained was eX-
ploded. The charge was of small
shot, which penetrated McCarthy's
right leg just about the knee.
Aid was called and afterward, the
Lackawanna hospital ambulance ar
irving, Mccarthy was placed in it and
taken to the hospital. His wounds
We're examined there and it was dis
covered that the shot had entered at
the knee, between the femur and knee
joint. The limb was badly injured,
the flesh being lacerated and the bones
badly broken.
At about 9.45 o'clock last night the
injured man was taken to the opera
tion room. 1t was there decided that
amputation was necessary and accord
ingly the leg was amputated about the
middle of the thigh.
During the operation Mccarthy lost
much blood and after it was over was
very weak. He is in a very serious
condition and the doctors cannot say
for certain whether or not he will re-
cover.
Fortunately, he is Of a strong, ro-
bust frame and seems to have a pow
! erful constitution. At 12 o'clock last
night n slight change for the better
had set in and he was resting more
! peacefully.

BERKLEY DROWNING.
District Attorney Will Present Dick
inson's Name to Grand Jury.

Geneva, n. Y, Nov. 5-The Berkeley
drowning case, according to state
ment made by District Attorney Nor
an, of Seneca Falls, n. y, will be pre-
sented to the grand jury of Seneca
county. Mr. Moran holds that Dickn-
son, the student who was with Berke.
ley at the time, was in no sense liable
for Berkeleys death, in that the latter
was told 10 obey the orders of Dickin-
son while undergoing the preliminary
initiation of the Kappa Alpha frater-
nifty.
Dickinson should have known the
ground before sending him on the err
rand he did, the district attorney
argues. The accident occurred in Sem
eca county and is therefore in the
hands of the authorities of that coun-
