 Firm-Better Feelingin
 Money Market
MONEY RATE CHECKED RUSH

New York November 5.-There was a very ardent speculative spirit in the stock market all day. It was repressed at times by the difficulty of securing accommodate tion in the loan market, but before the day had closed the market had burst into great animation after following a relapse in the call loan rate and the activity con- tinued up to the close, almost ignoring a recovery in the money rate to about the top rate of the morning. Taking of quick profits by room traders made some slight impression on prices here and there, but prices were generally near the top. The feeling in Wall street this morning was that Fridays jump in the call money rate had been due to manipulation; that Sat urday's bank statement did not truly rep resent the available resources of the banks and in short, that all of the usually trust worthy indications of a pinch in the money market were misleading and artificial.
 It was in this spirit that speculators rushed to buy stocks at the opening. They raised prices from 1 to IA points over Sat urday's level in large number of promi- nent stocks within few minutes Then began the calling of loans by some of the banks. Loans made today carry over until Wednesday, and when spectators began to look about to find new accommodations with which to carry their holding of stock over election day they ran the call loan rate up rapidly to 25 per cent The first loans were made at 10 per cent. One broker placed a million dollars at that rate and another million at 15 per cent and then demanded 25 per cent for million more This suddenly checked the. animation of the stock market, and was followed by a period of contemplation
 A conspicuous feature of the market at this time was the large number of trans actions for cash and the small concessions from the ruling prices at which these were quoted. The condition of the money mar ket was, of course, responsible for this. When the rates of money fell away to 10 per cent again the spectators promptly avaled themselves of the resources offered and rushed prices up to the top level of the day. The strength in the money market was general and quite uniform The Steel stocks, the prominent industrials and the Southern and Southwestern railroads, es- pecially the Atchisons and Union Pacific, were the leaders in point of strength, with gains ranging from to 2B per cent.
 Standard Oil sold on the outside market at 625, compared with the previous record of 613 on Saturday.
 Quite a large business was done in bonds and prices were well maintained. Total sales, par value, s1,315,2O0.

VIOLATION OF 583 AND MEANING OF ). |. The Police Patrol Wagon Kept on the Run on Account
 of Liquor

While the State Fair runs smoothly on, these are troublesome days for the police. The greater the success of the fair the
 more troubles increase In every crowd on pleasure bent there are some whose cup of joy cannot be filled without the aid of in-
 toxcating drink, and as a result many red-eyed, staggering man wakes up in the
 morning with bars all around him, and not a drop to drink. He is locked securely in the walls of the city jail. To Judge Feagin
 his tale is twice told; once by the officer
 and once by himself, and after depositing the necessary $5 and costs he goes his way
 to more innocent enjoyment.
 The patrol wagon was kept busy all day yesterday and last night, and the wardens s docket at an early hour this morning was much marked with names. In most cases the charge was violating 5S3'' or ID. C." To the ordinary individual these terms are unintelligible, but to policemen they mean much. There are more persons arrested on the two charges mentioned than all others combined. The first charge refers to a section of the city code which makes tres passing unlawful. The second is disorderly conduct Whenever a man becomes oD- streperous or is found in a place where he has no business he is usually locked up on one of the charges mentioned Frequently men have to be confined, though they have not directly violated the law. In nearly all such cases violating 5S3'' or ID. C." is set oppoiste their names on the warden's docket, and the arresting officer makes the necessary explanation in court the next morning. Plain drunk is often preferred as a charge, and though this may not be technical it tells the tale and the prisoner usually pleads guilty and accepts his fine. or rather pays his fine. with good grace, l after making the usual promise to do bet ter,

New York, November 5.-Today's cotton market was active with the net resources showing no special significance as the greater portion of the trade had made it's pre-elecuonary arrangements before Sat urday. For the present there was nothing in the way of activity. On the first call prices eased off twenty-five points on rath- CT bearish conditions in Liverpool Irregu- larity was of short duration however, as after indications showed a decided improve ment in the course of prices and volume, the market improved a pace and displayed underlying firmness, up to the noon hour.
 Light coverings and some foreign buy Ing were promoted by reports from the South that farmers were refusing to sell cotton at higher prices. while estimates for the weeks movement indicated d de- cided tapering from New Orleans. Export CTS were bidding in competition with spin ners, for additional supplies, but accord ing to general accounts were not securing the cotton as readily as hoped for. January worked up to 9.10 before the noon hour Then a reaction of several points occurred under estimates for large receipts tomor- row. Later fluctuations were confined to a point with trading practically at stand still. The market closed barely steady net one point higher to two points lower.
