New York. Dec 1.-THE surface in
dcations of today's market show
stocks to be in a very active course of
transfer from the hands of strong to
these of weak holders. The culmina
tion of rise invariably presents this
very condition. hut it is a condition
also which occurs at intervals in every
long sustained upward movement
The conservative element after see
ing certain profits assured, makes 1t d
habit to sell and take profit. without
regard to prospects of a further ad-
vance. The weight of influence then
/ Lasses to the bear party and the up
ward course is not renewed until they
have exhausted their best efforts TO
push the reaction to a elimination.
What was evident today was that
powerful and sklllful maniuulations
were at work to make the oOening
prices as high a: possible to meet the
| flood of outside buying orders. which
were certain to come into the market
after the last weeks events. From the
very first enormous realizing was in
/ evidence. Later in the day various at
tempts were made to hold ~ the mar
| ket by marking uD prices of various
| individual stocks. AS the fact became
more evident the sustaining force OF
these individual movements was taken
advantage OF to continue the unloading
of heavy line of long stock. and the
professional element on the exchange
turned to the bear side. Thev were
successful in forcing a sharp reaction
much reducing the gains that had been
the largest and completely wiping ou'
a LARGE number of those that had only
reached moderate proportions.
Manipulation develcGed at the close
to again rally the market by bidding
up Northern Pacific to 7S1a the record
price. The shorts bought to cover
elsewhere, so that the closing was
generally steady, with the further
course of the market very settled
and doubtful Even with the
net changes in the prices today very
small, the profits on the last week :
advance are on an enormous scale.

The county division matter mas
AGAIN bobbed up serenely. AS
vet no petitions have been clrcu-
lated in Ely but Duluth and the
Mesaba towns have been flooded
the past week. The petition IS a
counterpart of the one which was
circulated in the summer OF 1898.
It asks that the northern half OF
the county Of ST. Louis be set
apart into new county, OF which
Virginia shall be the county seat.
The territory which is to be set OF
is described in detail. 1t will be
remembered that in 1898 the petit
ton was forwarded to Governor
Clough, with the required number
of signatures, but he held that the
territory to be set apart IN the
new county was not properly de-
scribed. The question did not,
therefore, come before the voters
The movement to have the ranges
set apart into a new county orig
mated at Virginia this year, the
citizens of which town stole 6
march on the Eveleth people who
were contemplating a move OF thu
kind. For the life of us we can

SOME seem to doubt the re-

fact that he has held Office two
terms is not to his discredit.
