Boston Wool Market.

Boston, Aug. 30.-The American Wool
and Cotton Reporter will say tomorrow
The past week has been the quietest eX-
perienced in the wool market for several
months. actual sales aggregatnS less
than 4,0GO 600 pounds That consumers are
still interested in wool, however, is shown
by the presence in the market of several
buyers. including the largest in the coun-
try, but holders could not be induced to
make concessions.
The consumption of wool in this country
is greater than for many years, if indeed
it has ever been surpassed in amount
and the needs of the mills must be sup
piled from domestic woods unless the lat
ter advance to a point which renders i'm
portations possible. Territory woods, how
ever, are still far below the level of prices
at which importations of woods in COM
petition with them are admissible.
The sales of the week in Boston amount
ed to 3,475,OO0 pounds domestic and 100000
pounds foreign, making a total of 1876, 900
against a total of 49OO, 900 for the previous
week and a total of 1,00i, 500 for the CORE
spending week last year. Sales since Jan
l, 1899, amount to 1S497S 900 pounds against
B,71S5l0 pounds last year at this time.

THE MARKETS.

New York, Aug 3O.-Speculative sent-
ment was unsettled to-day and the course
of prices changed several times and was
very irregular all day. Net changes are
mostly on the side of gains and in group
of industrial specialties the closing was
at the best price, but in the railroad
stocks which started off with quite a
demonstration of strength, net advances
are generally below the extreme rise. The
upward impulse at the opening was due
to the much more cheerful feeling in Lon
don regarding the Transvaal outlook.
Buying for London account was about
equal to yesterdays selling Tor the same
account.
There was some covering also by local
pears. who sold yesterday on the Trans
vaal war scare. The active buying move
ment in the railroads fell off very largely
after the first hour With the compare
tive dullness of railroads and reaction in
prices on realizing came renewed activity
in the Industrial specialties, which con-
tinued the rest of the day. The Tobacco
stocks and the local stocks were attacked
by the bears for effect on the general
market and Tennessee Coal was under
pressure. On the other hand, Brooklyn
Transit continued to be vigorously sup
ported with view to the discontinue of
the short interest. Sugar showed symp
toms of a desire to cover on the part of
the bears. The iron and steel group were
benefited by the continued active demand
for the Republic Steel issue, which lifted
the common stock IA. In the late trading
Federal Steel forged to the front and rose
rapidly to 61&, an extreme q.
The municipal stocks rallied from their
previous depression and the rather buoy
ant tone of the ndustrials impaired sym
pathetic firmness to the railroad list In
the latter division of the market the
stocks which suffered most acutely yes
terday were strong to-day, notably Louis
villes Northern and Southern Pacific.
There were evidences of individual
strength in the Hooking Valley and
Wheeling & Lake Erie and Kansas &
texas preferred. Chicago & Eastern Hi
nois and Chicago Great Western preferred
''B' amongst the railroad stocks, and
Iaclede Gas, North American and Bag
aIrd Paper preferred in the specialties.
Call money held stiffiy at 8 per cent. or
above, and the lenders were more exact
about time -loans without any change in
the actual rate. Some effect on the money
n1arket is produced by preparation for the
regular monthly settlement on Sept q
The banks continue to lose cash, both to
the interior and to the sub-treasury. This,
combined with easier money in London
and the buying here for London account,
produced fall of a fraction in the ac-
tnal rates for sterling exchange.

the Part of the City Engineer - Ex-
treme Cruelty Charged in
Suit for Divorce

Great Falls, Aug. 3o.-The city received
a setback to-day in the suit of Thomas
Reilly vs.. the city of Great Falls. The
city had demurred to the complaint on
the ground that the claim of the plaintiff
had not passed through the red tape
routes prescribed by the statute The
court, in reviewing the arguments, holds
that the statute only applies to the ex-
penses incurred by the city in the regular
course of business. The suit is one asking
damages for the overflow of water on to
the plaintiffs land, the latter claiming
that through the incompetency or error
of the city engineer a small-sized Missis-
sippi river flood was turned loose upon
him, and his home was seriously dam
aged. There is another case of this same
nature Ringing upon the ability of the
city officials now pending in the supreme

The Taking If HOiiO.
(From Harper's weekly.)

One raport has il that the action was
brought on prematurely by the navy; but
we had threatened that if we found the
insurgents adding TO their defenees we
would open fire at once, and the threats
had to be kept. AS 1t is. we have told the
natives so many things that we have not
carried out that they think We believe
more in manana than do the Spanish.
There is no doubt that 1t was for the best
as 1t happened, for one OF the English
captains is authority for rumor that the
insurgents were perfecting arrangements
for burning the whole town when We
opened fire. The only thing 10 be regret
ted is that the foreigners, women, and
children did not have long enough
chance to get out of the town. though
most of the foreigners had left the night
before going aboard the ships in the har-
bor: and, so far as can be learned, none
OF those remaining in the town were hurt.
but they were thoroughly frightened.
Our hardest work was suppressing the
iooting of the town. The only man wound
ed during the day was seaman IN the
Boston's party. who was shot in the heel
by a looter. The doctor who accompanied
the party had filled his canteen with
brandy and water before leaving the ship,
so he gave the man a drink from it, and
then knelt down with his back to the
mans face to examine the wound. While
he was dressing the wound the man saw
his opportunity and emptied the canteen.
When he was taken on board ship he had
to be carried. but it was not due to the
wound.
One of the "nerviest' things of the day
was a Filipino who in the afternoon, even
after the army had occupied the place, be-
gan firing at the Petrol with a rifle from
one of the houses about five hundred
yards from the ship. AS his shots were
falling close to the ship, landing party
had TO be sent ashore to drive him out,
but they did not succeed in capturing him.

The Pre.fdent,r Health.

The whole country will regret to learn
that President McKinley's incessant and
arduous work and the weight of the cares
and worries incident TO his high office dur
ing the past year have so affected his
health that he has been Obliged to yield
TO the advice of his physicians and prepare
to take several weeks rest at the Virginia
Hot Springs.
There is much encouragement in the
statement made by those nearest to the
President that there is no occasion for
public uneasiness regarding his condition.
and that while he is undoubtedly broken
in strength and suffering from rheumatic
pains, there is nothing the matter with him
that will not disappear with absolute rest
and relief from the labors and anxieties Of
his position
Perhaps few people can realize the her
culean task Mr.. Mckinley has had upon his
shoulders since the day the Maine was
blown up. The mere routine of his office
one would think would have wrecked the
strongest constitution. But in the Presi-
dents case the strain has been the greater
because he is a man of strong emotions and
sympathies, and kind heart. The suffer-
ings of his soldiers in the fever camps,
their deaths or wounds in battle, and all
the saddening incidents of war have af
fected him deeply. So. at last, through
work and worry, he is worn down and must
nurse himself for while. In the pure air
of the beautiful Virginia mountains Mr..
McKinley's natural vigor will soon reas-
sert itself, and we shall hope TO see him
back at his desk again before midsummer
twice as fresh, hearty. and smiling as ever.
