there was a very notable hardening of
values in railroad securities which was

much every railroad stock dealt In. To-

a repetition of yesterdays and which
has continued pretty well throughout the

ance of the list being practically neg

pennsylvania was particularly strong in
side buying by Philadelphia houses, the
death OF the president of the company
having absolutely no effect on the mar
ket condition OF it's securities.
The bears are very aggressive and at
the same time, there has been created a
strong bullish interest which is included
TO fight against the attack by the trad
ers. The strength is undoubtedly at the
moment on the bull side of the house, as
stocks have been to a certain extent
oversold and LIQUIDATION has thrown a
gerat number of securities into quite
strong hands, and in consequence, IL will
take more than market raids to dislodge
them. The longer the bear attacks are
kept up the longer and more unwieldly

less the advocates of lower prices re-
vive outside assistance, we shall have
sharp upturn very shortly. At the mo-
ment We strongly advise taking Of

TO warrant a great deal OF caution in
purchases, Market closed dull, inclined

licked and sent sprawling upon tn
walk. From that time until McGilsi-
cuddy left the agency he and Red Cloud
were the best of friends. So much did
the Indian think of the doctor in fact,
that he bestowed upon him the name of
Thhnder-in Fl is-Neck, observing, it is.

troubled with an obdurate liver. He
called at the agency pharmacy and told
McGilicuddy by means of signs and an
interpreter that he was i'll. Two doses
of calomel were given the red man,
who swallowed the powders aud pro-
ceeded to make payment. When he was
told that the medicine was free he de-
manded two more doses, which he
tossed into his mouth. Later that night
there were wild bowls and grunts from
the white house by the creek and it was
nearly a week before "Old Red" ap-
peared for duty. His face then looked
like an old russell apple, so wrinkled and
shriveled was it. So profoundly weak
was he that he could smile but feebly
to DR. McGillicuddy, who found the old
man squatting on knoll above the
agency and gazing wistfully at the set

TRIAL OF cONSPlRATORS.
Riotous Scenes In French Senate Sit
ting As High Court.

Paris, Nov. 10.-The senate, sitting as
a high court, resumed today, calling
the names of witnesses in the conspir-
acy cases, which led to violent scenes.
President Fallieries vainly tried to pre-
serve silence, and some of the witnesses
had TO be removed by the ushers. When
NJ. Monteil's name was called the tu-
multi increased. There were loud cries
of "Vive Guerin." .'Vive de Roulede, ;"
''Abas los Juifes.' while from outside
the senate could be heard the strains
of the 'Marseillaise."
A witness who Numbered ''Vive de
Roulede" ''Vive PArmee," was arrest
ed amid the protests of the other wit
nesses. Finally partial order was re-
stored and the persons arrested were
released.
NJ Fallieries then read the conclusion
of the counsel, who held the senate was
incompetent to hear the case. The ses-
sion vas afterwards suspended. Dur
ing the suspension of the sitting news
paper vendor named Rimbart. one of
NJ. Guerin's witne sses, violently assault
ed another witness, whom he accused
of being a police agent. The municipal
guards seized Rimbart, who drew re-
volver. He was incarcerated.
The senate resumed its session dur
ing the evening and heard further ar
guments of defending counsel who SUBJ
mitted that the senate Is incompetent
to try the conspiracy case. The senate
then adjourned

ON THE STOCK EXCHANGE.
Money Situation Continues to Domi
nate the New York Situation

II
| New York. Nov. 1o.-Bradstreet's re-
view of the New York stock market to-
morrow will say: Although last Sat
urdays bank statement showed that
the averages of the clearing house
banks were below the legal reserve
limit the stock market displayed little
trepidation, and on last Monday money
was relatively quiet. Large specula-
tive interests apparently supported
their specialties on a belief that the
election would make no sweeping
changes in the countrys political senti-
ment. This last was substantially veri-
fed at the polls on Tuesday, and pro-.
duced at the opening on Wednesday
not only considerable local buying. but
certain amount of foreign support as
WELL 1t was, however, quickly evident
that professional interests were inclined
TO realize ON the advance. and later in
the day loans were called freely by the
banks. money became relatively less
plentiful and rates naturally frightened
The later tendencies, as well as the de-
clines in quotations throughout the
list which accompanied them, were
even more strikingly displayed in
Thursdays trading when the whole
market developed decided weakness, the
industrial stocks in particular reflect
ing the renewed acute uncertainty
about the financial situation.
There has been more or less discus
sion as to the possibility that the treas
ury Will relieve the money market by
an offer to purchase bonds. or that the
slight rises in New York exchange at
western points are preliminary to
movement of funds from the interior to
New York. Ii also does not escape no.
tice that foreign exchange rates moved
downward simultaneously with tine
hardening of call money There seems.
however, to be no general expectation
of gold imports. not only because of the
war in Africa and the rather sensitive
financial position both at London and
in the continental markets. but because
it is felt that any real danger of a flow
of gold to the United States viii create
further and decided advance in rates
for money abroad.
The conclusion, therefore, seems to
be that holders of stocks for speculative
purposes had become wearied 6f car
rying them in the face of a money mar
ket in which 6 per cent was a compare
lively low rate and 10 to Is per cent
appeared likely to be maintained with
some intermissions.
