REPORT OF THE NEW
YORK STOCK EXCHANGE
Railroad Grain, and Produce, Wool
and Other Quotations-General
Review of Trade.

New York., Dec. 5-Today's market
somewhat reversed the speculative posi-
ton of yesterday. The early part of the
day showed a continuance of the reac-
tionary tendency. London took it's cue
from the depression here yesterday n
sold American offerings from that source
amounting to some 80, 1000 shares. The
professional traders also continued bear
lsh and sold stocks short, but it became
obvious during the course of the day that
there was no urgent pressure to liqui-
date. Declines in prices brought no large
offerings and the bears were disinclined
on this account to pursue this cam
paign. Consequently they bought to COW
er their contracts and turned the market
upwards. The recovery was helped by
strength in a few stocks. but whether the
upward course of prices late in the day
was due generally to any other cause
than the taking of bear profits on the
short sales which We're invited by yes
terday's weakness, remains to be seen.
Call money rates went to 5 per cent.
today and the movement of currency to
the interior continues unabated. Today
t2O0. 900 was transferred through the SUBJ
treasury to Chicago and $500, 900 to New
Orleans. This rate of depletion is far too
large to permit of any extensive credit
expansion by New York financial insti-
buttons, and would not require a long
continuance to force a sharp contraction
Of loans. 1t will be remembered that in
the period of depression preceding the
election bankers were practically unani-
nous in the opinion that resources must
be conserved for the enlargement of the
requirements of business after election.
The outcoming of credits after election
was Of such a large character as to over
whelm all demands and force any easy
money rate, in spite of the furious specu-
aation which ragged for several weeks. In
today's market Atchison preferred and
Missouri Pacific We're strong and Brook
lyn Transit and the steel stocks were in
demand. Sugar was very feverish and
after rallying from early weakness to
about a point over last night, it lost the
gain again in a few minutes. The Anal
gamated Copper shares had an extreme
decline of IA points before showing any
resistance, but they strongly recovered
more than half their loss.

NOTICE TO UNDERWRITERS,

Dated this gath day Of September, 100,
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1900-04-27
The Herald's Editorial.

A Benwood Republican, in a COM
munication published to-day, asks Mr..
J. K. Hall some questions relative to
the Intelligencer's curse in fighting
Senator Quay. The Herald has fire.
quently noticed the Intelligencer's es-
pousal of the Mugwump in Penn
sylvania. So late as this morning it
contained the following choice bit OF
advice for the "Quayites:"
THE Quayites of Pennsylvania would
better restrain their anger and modify
their threats. They are in a State
where they can do but little damage"
In yesterdays Pennsylvania conven-
ton there were 272 Quayites to rs OF
the other kind. So that when the In
telligencer uses the term "Quayites" it
refers to about four-fifths of the Re-
publicans of Pennsylvania. 1t is just
a little queer that the Intelligencer is
so prolific in advice for the Republican
party of Pennsylvania, but has never
yet deemed it proper to make " the
slightest suggestion to the Mugwumps
over there, even when they were OPP
posing the regular Republican nomi-
nee for Senator, an act which the In
telligencer adjudges high treason in
West Virginia. Sentiment among the
old soldiers at the encampment is de-
cidedly against the Intelligencer's
course. Aside from their admiration
for Quay as a stalwart Republican and
party leader he was a brave soldier
and is an honored member of the
Grand Army organization.

HALL AND FREW

Hnu1ed over the Goals and the
Quality Of Their Republicanism
Called In Question.
The following communication and
editorial reference to it, from the
tMoundsville Herald (Republican), are
interesting, and may prove more than
interesting to Mr.. Hall:
The Communications.
Editor Herald:
| have been noting the un-Republican
course of the Wheeling In~telfigencer
toward that stalwart Republican lead
err, Matthew Stanley Quay, and |, with
others, would like to know if the Intel
ligencer's course is endorsed by Mr..
James Kelsey Hall, who, with Mr.. John
FreW, is understood to own a controll-
ing interest in the paper?
1, with other Republicans, want to
know if, while Mr.. Hall is asking the
Republicans of this State to elect him
to the best Office within their gift, he
endorses the course of his paper in CIV
ing aid and comfort to the Pennsyl-
vania mugwumps and in joining in
prosecuting the greatest leader the Re-
p0DIltdh patty has ONOi
Does Mr.. Hall endorse the editorial
reference in Mondays Intelligencer to
"Quay's autocracy in Pennsylvania
politics?"
Does Mr.. Hall endorse The action OF
the Intelligencer in holding the Phila-
delphia Press up as a "stalwart Re-
publican paper" when it did all with
in it's power to defeat the Republican
State ticket in Pennsylvania two years
ago, fought the caucus nominee for
Senator, and was and is ready to join
with mugwumps, Democrats or my
thing else against the Republican party
organization in the State?
Mr.. Hall will confer a great favor
upon lots of Republicans if he will
state his position in these matters.

RumOrs Are Again Rife of the En-
gagement of General Wheeler and
Mrs. Chiids.
NEW YORK, April pa special to
The Herald from Washington says:
Persistent rumors again couples the
INT Of Gen. Joseph Wheeler and
Mrs. George w. Childs, and this time
there seems to be good reason to be-
lieve an announcement of their engage
ment to marry will be made.
When Mrs. Childs was asked for a
confirmation or denial of the rumor,
she smiled and referred the questioner
to Gen. Wheeler. The gallant veteran
also smiled when asked aboat it. He
said:
"I1I tell you what l will do. / will
see Mrs. Childs and ask her to answer
your questions or authorize me to do
so."
When seer later, he said:
Eyes, | saw Mrs. Childs, and | think
you will soon receive your answer.
Mrs. Childs said she would send you a
note setting at rest all these rumors.
No statement could be obtained from
Mrs. Childs to-day. Gen. Wheeler adj
mitted, however, that at a luncheon
in Philadelphia attended by Mrs. Childs
and himself, they were congratulated
by mutual friends upon their rumored
engagement. These congratulations
were accepted without denial, though
Gen. Wheeler now says they were I'M
fortunate and untimely.
