Curtis on Custer.
Interesting to Many of Onr
Readers.

William f. Curtis of the Chicago
Record writes interestingly of a recent
trip to the Custer battlefield. We copy
part of his article and some comments
by the Bismarck Tribune:
"The Custer battlefield ne eds attention.
The national cemetery, which occupies
the scene of the massacre OF IS officers
and 247 men Of the Seventh cavalry, is
about two miles from the Crow agency,
and the stone house erected for the Gus
todian and the grim shaft of granite
which marks the spot where Custer made
his last stand are visible from the Bur-
lington railway station and the agency
buildings. drove over there this morn
ing behind a sturdy team and in a hand
some wagon hired from Bears Claws,
who keeps a livery stable at the agency.
"The cemetery is at the summit of a
ridge 500 feet above the level of the Lit
tie Big Horn river, and the soil is as dry
as a bone. Mr.. Grover, the custodian, is
compelled to haul nearly all the water
he uses because the government has left
him at the mercy of a cistern and the
rainfall is infrequent and uncertain. Con-
gress might make an appropriation to
drive a we'll and erect a windmill so that
there might be a supply of water to irri-
gate the soil of the cemetery and sustain
a few trees to relieve the barren and life
less monotony of the place. 1t is in
tended to be a permanent military Gene
terry, and not only the victims of the Gus
ter massacre, but the bodies of all the
soldiers killed by the Indians in this part
of the country have been brought here

General Outlook Of The Stcck
and Money Market for

rain, and until the leeuif Of General
Ciery's. thirteen hours Of fighting is
SHOWN, the market promises to be quiet.
Last week was one OF the dullest
known for mouths. Barely a'h1iflion
and half of shares were dea I fn'ofi the
stock change throughout the entire
week, being not much more than half Of
the total Of the week preceding, and
quarter Of the aggregate for the ebrree.
pobdlng week year sgo. The present out
losk for this wtek's market is no better
II as good. In markst SO narrow luctu.
atiens can count for little other than
where exceptional Causes are operating.
10 some parts of the market at present
there are factors out Of the usual.
What speGulators have been paving
more attention TO than most other in
hueRces combined has to dc with the
3osr war and reports Of British success.
lrregularity in quotations and tendency
toward declines have been offset by
daily special dispsiehes' from London
foiecasting the relief Of Ladysmith and
a quick end 70 the war.
Money market rates show improve
ment. FUNDS on call are in larger sup
ply and rates are lower than has been
the average sincs September. Time
money has also been in better volume,
and four and ak months loans we're
made last week on fire per cent basis,
record moi recently touched. Money
lenders are giving collateral closer scru.
tiny, and trust stocks are more than ever
under suspicion. This, Of course, affects
the. views and policy of commission
brokers, who become more and more
urgent 10 advising customers to avoid
industrial issues Tor the present.
Using "othsr peoples money" has
been proceeding as pastime and prudt
for able insiders but with final nel "a.
suits that do damage 10 ths scattered
crowd who actually own the properties
they let unbridled directors run. 1t
used TO be just so in the railway world.
Then cure came through the panic Of
1893.
One encouraging sign in the stock
market shows in an extending market
for bonds. Not only are banking houses
selling directly 20 customers doing more
business than has been their average for
some time past, but Transactions on the
Stock Exchange last week doubled, as
compared with the preceding weeks Of
the new year.
