some people certain to wish 10 sell stocks.
The market is getting ready for a boom in
the near future, however.
The bank statement was a surprise ev-
eTywhere. 1t showed loss CT cash and a
loss OF surplus reserve, though in both
cases the amounts were small. in fact.
the statement was one of the most insig-
nihcant of recent years. The figures were
as follows: Reserves decreased SSI, +25,
leans decreased 81, G54, 300, specie decreased
sSg0,600, Iegals increased $4O5. 100, deposits
decreased S1,616.S 500, and circulation in
creased $157.S00.
The largest advances were in Sugar and
Brooklyn Rapid Transit, the former get
ting as high as I25 and the latter as high
as 81. 1t is believed that these stocks
were bought to a certain extent by people
who are betting on Democratic success and
wish 10 make money no matter which wav
the election goes. The advance in Brook
Ign may be traced TO this factor largely
perhaps. Both stocks are expected to make
good advances soon after the election.

CRUELTY TO ORPHANS.
Terre Uaute Woman said to Have
lowered Children In u Well.

Terres Haute, Ind. Aug. 3l-Two
weeks ago he twenty orphan children
the county was boarding With a Mrs.
Mckenzie Mere taken from her and
placed in homes. Charges are nov
made of extreme cruelty of the chill
:dren by Matron Mckenzie. One of the
charges is that Mrs Mckenzie lowered
IA child into a. we'll as punishment; an
other that she made the children sleep
on the floor To save washing the bed
clothing. Mrs. Mckenzie says that she
threatened to lower children into the
We'll as a means of preventing them
playing around the opening of the Well
She also says the children sleIa on COM
forts on the floor, but they did this of
their own Wish in the warm weather.
Perhaps the most convincing evidence
that the matron was not fit for the po-
sition is that of the physician, DIR. Sha-
ley, who was called to attend some of
the childhen at their home. He says
their weakness was wholly due to the
lack of nourishing food: that they We're
like the children in famine-stricken In
|dia, where pictures have been printed in
newspapers and magazines.

iencampment were adopted under condi-
gtions which make it imperative that a
one cent mile rate be secured. If this

Power to act In such an emergency
was vested in the executive committee
of the council of administration.
"a telegram was read from the mayor
of Denver inviting the Grand Army
men to the city near the Rockies. The
Colorado delegates explained the many
fine points of their home and told of
what the people promised TO do in the
way of entertainment for the old SOL

There was consie eerable discussion
relative to the railipad rate. Finally
the matter was disposed of as stated.

| of Poeahontas county, has very likely
\ had something to do with Senator
Fincll's decision. Mr.. DeWolf and Sem
ator Finch have always worked to-
gether. Mr.. DeWolf helped to make
Mr.. Finch senator and has always

Finch has investigated the situation in

/ have no trouble in securing the delega-
tion from that county for himself. Un-
4 der these conditions Senator Finch

4 could to help Mr.. DeWolf. Senator
4 Finch has needed and received the sup

5lpendent candidate for representative in

Ru.sian Policy In Chinn.

London. Aug. 31.-Diplomatic circles
in London appear to be satisfied that
Russia has either directly sent a circu-
lar note to the powers proposing the
opening Of II eace negotiat atoms or has
reached an agreement with the United
States in regard to the basis on which
the government at Washington will
take the initiative action. Russia may
prefer the latter arrangement on the
ground that the United States has no
entanglements. Ike Manciluria, calcu-
lated to arouse the suspicious of the
powers. Nothing definite, however.
seems to be known at the legations in
London, except Russia's great anxiety
TO end the prevailing conditions as
speedily as possible tho the opinion is
expressed that Russia believes. as a
preliminary to the negotiations, that
the allied forces should evacuate Pekin
and retire with their resident ministers,
Europeans and native Christians to
Tien Tsin, whence they can better
treat with the most responsible China
men available. 1t is pointed out that
tho some of the governments are in
clined to recognize Ii Hung Chang's S
powers, there is a feeling in. some quar-
ters that 1t will be more satisfactory to
all concerned and carry more weight
with the Chinese themselves could some
Representative prince belonging to the
