SCRANTON, Pa, Oct. IA meeting of
the presidents of the Scranton local
unions of the United Mine Workers was
held this afternoon to discuss the adyis-
ability of taking aggressive steps towards
closing up the washeries. After carefully
canyassing the situation it vas decided
to let the matter rest for while The
fact that the end of the strike is gener-
ally believed to be at hand impelled the
meeting to refrain from making this
move, which it is generally conceded
would be attended with the possibility of
disorder, and which would havA. a ten
dency to do more harm to the cause than
the operation of the washeries.
The general situation was also discuss,
ed and one of the presidents at the con-
cfusion of the meeting stated to the AS
ISOLATED Press that in his judgment the
men would be perfectly satisfied to ac-
cept the 10 per cent offer with the DOW
der clause included Organizer Fred
Dllcher, however, says the convention
demanded a straight 10 per cent advance
with the powder question left for future
adjustment ard that until this demand
is complied with to the very letter the
officers have no authority to call off the
strike.
The strikers here believe. that the com.
panes which failed to comply with the
agreement of Thursdays conference to
post amendments to the original offer
guaranteeing its continuance till April l.
lSUl, were prompted by a desire to hold
I'D the settlement and see If 1t is not pos

REVIEW Of WALL STREET
LITTLE EXPLANATION, NEEDED FoR
THE APPEARANCE OF A BULL
MOVEMENT
ELECTIONS BEING DISCOUNTED
The Flow of Gold From Other coun-
tries to the United States Rids
the Situation of Another
Difficulty.

NEW YORK, Oct. -@(SreciaN Henry
Clews in his weekly review of Wall stress
says:
Wall street has at last broken loose
from its protracted inlpatienee. and for
reasons that do not need much explaoa-
ton. For some months past, the largely
preponderanu sentiment has been that
stocks, especially those of railroads, have
been 1ntrinslcally. unusually cheap. And
yet there has scarcely been an influential
operator who has cared to turn this gen.
eral cheapness to speculative account No
doubt, this ShNneSS of bull specuIators
has been in considerable measure due
to an increasing conservatism in specula,
ton; for it is generally conceded on tha
Stock Exchange that the leading opera
tors have become more cautious ahout
participating in campaign ventures than
in former years.
But apart from this feeling of caution.
there have been factors which directlv
counSeled pOstponement of specuIat;ve
schemes; and throughout the summer and
since the fall set in the prospect of the
money market have been construed as
calling for an attitude Of waiting. and If
has been regarded as wise policy to al
low the market to drift until those IN,
certainties have become matters of the
past. Within the last week or two. how.
ever, the probabilities on both these
points have undergone change which is
WIDELY construed as placing both in the
list of certainties.
Whatever may be the balance of or,in-
ion in the country at large, there can be
no question that: in Wall street circles
the election of a Republican president
is regarded as being as sure as anv nm
accomplished event can be. by men so
largely interested in the result of the
election that they could not afford to de-
celVe themselves, unusual efforts have
peen made to ascertain the probably ont
come of the public vote, and the conclu-
s1ol:s drawn from their canvass are ey-
pressed in duplication of buying orders
especially on the railroad list; and the
demand evidently comes from men of re-
source and leading, without having vet
perceptibly touched the more sanel1ina
outside element. 80
Contemporaneously with this maturing
OF opinion on the issue Of the elections.
the uncertainties surrounding the near
future Of the money market have been

the fact that we can get money from Eu-

MONEY PLENTY AT BERLIN.
Private Discount Rate Dropped
Notably Last Week.


BERLIN, Oct. 21.-The rapid decline of
nne private discount rate was the most
striking feature of last weeks money
market. This was caused chiefly, nv SYM
pathy with London and also by the ex-
cellent Reichsbank sta tement for Oct Is
Rates are now so easy that financiers
confidently expect the Reichsbank will
continue the present rate through the
autumn. The banks metal stock stands
50,O00,00O marks above the stock of last
year, and its discounts are 1s3, COG, O(O
marks below.
The movement is now toward a rand
recovery. During the last three DAYS of
the past week the private discount fell to

at 273 per cent and can be obtained even

also show falling tendency, and New
York S gold receipts from non-European
sources Fast week caused a confident feel
ing that New York will not draw upon
credits here.
The weeks sensation on the bourse was

banks, while a violent break in quota
lions was caused by sales from a de-
ceased bankers estate, producing rumors
of financial unsoundness These institu

Chicagcan Reaches Paris From the
Congo Country.
CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-Word was received
here today of the arrival in Paris Of the
young African explorer and engineer,
William Stamps Cherry, Of Chicago. He
comes direct from. the Congo Free State.
Since Mr.. Cherry left Chicago nearly four
years ago on his second trip, he has visit
ed a considerable portion of the unknown
lands in the Congo Free State, and also
the country north of the Congo, including
the Nittu region. Mr.. Cherry brings back
considerable data of the country he has
been travelling through, which will be of
immediate historic and scientific value.
When England and France nearly went
to war over the Fashoda affair, Maj
rchand had taken possession Of that
portion of the country on the Nile as an
outlet ON that river for the French pos
sessions. MIR. Cherry at that time was
the leader of q second expedition organic
ed in the French Congo which follow
the one headed by Marchand. Mr.. Cherry
on this trip took with him, besides sup
plies for the French, a steel river steamer
In sections, and upon his arrival on the
banks of the Nile supervised the steam
FRS construction. This boat played an
Important part in that international cpl
sOGe, as the intention of France was to

domination over the lands bordering the
Nile
On his return to the Congo country
from Fashoda, Mr.. Cherry devoted a por-
ton of his time to the exploration of the
hitherto unknown IIittu region, lying to
the north of the Congo free state and the
French Congo country. The Kittu region
Is far removed from the portion of Cen
trail Africa which Henry Stanley made
the world familiar. 1t is expected that
Mr.. Cherry will bring back considerable
information of the social life and indus
tries of people never before visited by
q white man.
Mr.. Cherry was accompanied on his lat
est trip by Charles H McClintock, of
Chicago About a year after their arriv-
81 in the French Congo, Mr.. McClintock
succumbed to African fever Mr.. Cherry
then continued the trip alone.

bosses.
A prominent local official of the Unio1
Coal company says the company posi-
lively refuses to concede to any of the
demands made by the Scranton conven-

busy season has been ruined by the
strike, and they don't care when the
strike is settled, feeling positive that
they can hold out much longer than the
striking miners. The company controls
four large collieries in the Shamokin
