NEW YORK. Sept. 3o.--T Commercial -Ad- vertiser's London financial cablegranl says: The stock market today was !stless and un- easy over q fresh relapse in the copper shares. attributable to nervousness about the Paris settlement, where a heavy loss is entaied by the break in coppcrs and in Russian industrial enterprises. Rio tintos opened at 461s fell to, 45h and closed at 46A or a net loss for the at 7%, or 3I6 down. Copper opened at 62b and closed at 63%. The authorities here favor the theory that the slump in Amalgamated is all a stock market dodge. American shares opened under parties and held quietly steady till New York came as buyer of United States Steel which Morgan brokers bought freely. The list otherwise was neglected and the closing was dull The Bank of England has bought GiS.oO0 gold in Australia and Australia is still buying the metal at 77s lid The market. despite the fact that we are pay the bank. but SIP GOO oeo is due tomor. row.

 A Participating Partner

Now and then one reads |of the man. who, starting as office boy, rises by ex- traordinary ability and op-
 portunity to a partnership in a great business, but the chances against you or me becoming a Carnegie or even a Charlie Schwab are about 100000 to I. It's only in stories and cheap plays that everybody, ex- cept the william, gets rich and happy.
 But the Equitable offers a magnificent opportunity to a limited number of young men of character who are willing to work. Under the New Renewal Contract the faithful agent becomes a full participating partner in the strongest
 corporation on earth.

R. ": Scale & Cos Cotton Letter.

NEW ORLEANS. Sept 3o.-An easier ten- dency was observed in Liverpool today which cables attributed to sxpectations of heavier receipts and stated that spinners were keepin out of the market in anticipation of buying cheaper when the movement began to swell. The weekly reports Of trade in Manchester and on the 'contipent were rather gloomy In Germany especially the depression in busi- ness Is said to be growing more serious an values in general continue to shrink. So far as cotton is concerned. this depression seems from the exports of cotton from this country to the continent. which are exceptionally free. and rather Justihes the belief that these pes- simistic accounts are materially exaggerated. After a slight decline in sympathy with Liv- e1 pools couIse. very quiet condition pre- vailed here Traders were reluctant to make fresh commitments with the uncertainty of the msnthly buIea report, (to be published on Oct. 3rd) in the foreground.
 Closing quotations are SGto points lower than Saturday
 Regarding the bureau the general impression Is that 1t will show the condition of the crop to be about 67, the same last year, or, in other words. 6 deterioration during this montth of about points At present the weather Is rather favorable throughout the belt, and 1t is thought that in some cases improvement to the crop will result. while picking will be &C., tolerated.
 Meanwhile receipts are very moderate, but spots continue to deprecfate in the absence of a substantial demand
 There may be nd immediate relief from this condition while foreigners are under the ii : fuence of their spell, of pessimism and much depends on what stand the country will take in the matter.

THE SPEAKING CAMPAIGN.
IOwa's Distinguished Speakers Mt
Work - This Weeks Meetings -,
Plenty of Speakers TO Be Had.
Especial Correspondence

Des Moines, Sept. 30-With Mr..
Cummins, Senator Dolliver, Gov.
Shaw, Congressman Walter /. Smith
and other distinguished speakers in
the field to stay until the day Of cleo
ton, and others listed for speeches
in few days, the campaign may now
be said to be in full swing, with the
certainty that it will increase in in
terest from now until it's conclusion.
Gov. Shaw has his first meeting in
Indianola, Thursday, October 3, and
the next day speaks in Boone.
Senator ]. P. Deliver speaks first
in Atlantic, Wednesday, October ?,
and will speak in Audubon and Gid
den the next two days.
Mr.. Cummins begins this week in
Lenox and speaks during the week
in Red Oak, Creston, Corning, Hamp-
ton, Mason City and Toledo, in the
order named, the meetings in Red
Oak and Creston being on the same
day.
Senator Allison opens his campaign
this year in Manchester, October 10,
and Mr.. Cummins will be there the
same day. 1t will be a big district
meeting, for which the Third district
is famous, and Speaker Henderson is
expected to add enthusiasm to the
occasion. .N.rr-s
Judge Smith appears in Atlantic
with Senator Dolliver and in Indian
ola with Gov. Shaw and is also
booked for Newton and Williams
burg.
Manager A. +. Dawson, of the re-
publican state committees speakers
bureau, has secured the services of
several of the best speakers in the
west for the Iowa campaign. Among
them are Senator Knute Nelson, of
Minnesota; Senator Fairbanks, of In
diana; Senator William f. Mason, of
Illinois; Senator Clapp, of Mime
sofa, and others whose names will be
announced later. 1t has been very
dif1icultto secure outside speakers this
year, because they all think, and
know, that Iowa is all right anyway,
and that there is no need of their
coming out here to work in the cam
paign. ...
Besides the Iowa senator's and con-
gressmen, state officers and other
well-known speakers, r. Dawson has
a large number of young Iowans on
his list, men of the stuff that has
given Iowa such a proud position of
| honor, influence and usefulness in the
nation. These young men are all ex-
cellent speakers, well informed, elo-
euent, forceful and entertaining, or
they would not be on the list. Coun-
ty chairmen wanting good, lively
meetings, that will produce good re-
suits, will get what they want by
asking Mr.. Dawson for it. The earlier
they apply, the better they will be
provided for.
The demand for speakers is in
! creasing. The local campaigns are
now being planned and many of them
have already begun. In another week
a large number of meetings will have
been held. The congressman are pre-
pairing to cover their own districts IN
| good shape.

Obedience to orders from Capt. Wise, who
was his commanding officer, he had pro-
ceeded to the vicinity OF Santiago, arrive
Ing there on the 2lst. He told of taking
aboard the Cuban pilot Nunez. and said
that he did not have great confidence in
that Individual. His Instructions were to
report to Commodore schley that the
Spanish squadron probably was in Sam
tiago harbor He tell in with the flying
squadron on the evening OF May Is, the
squadron then being 20 or rs miles south of
Santiago. He had reported to Commodore
Schley that he knew nothing positively"
about the Spanish fleet. He was then asked
II he had expressed his belief 70 Commo-
dore Schley that Cervera's feet was not
in the harbor as reported later by Conn
modore Schley A controversy arose over
the admlssibiity OF the question, and the
court took a recess for luncheon before
receiving the reply Of the witness.
What Sigsbee said.
When the Schiey court reconvened after
luncheon Capt. Sigsbee resumed his testi-
mony. Mr. Hanna repeated his question.
asked before recess, quoting from Admiral
Schley's report of February Is, 1898, the
sentence reading: After having been as
sured by Sigsbee that he did not believe the
Spanish fleet was in Santiago" The wit
ness replied
81 stated that we had seen nothing of the
Spanish fleet. l may have stated that |
knew nothing positively or absolutely
about Its movements, but recited certain
events to show that there was probability
of the feet being in Santiago at that time"
Mr.. Hanna-The portion of the question
to which / should like to have you give an
explicit answer is whether you assured
Commodore Schley that you believed the
Spanish fleet was not in Santiago.
~ did not say that I believed it was not
there | said / had not seen It,
Capt. Sigsbee was excused and Chief
Yeoman Gustaye L. Becker of the cruiser
New York, was called. He was on the
stand when the court, at 1868 p. m4 ad-
journed.

OUR CANDIDATES.
James P. Dodds Renominated
for Superintendent.

Tho educational affairs Of the
county for the past two years have
been in the hands of Mr.. James
P. Dodds, county superintendent. 1t
is to his lasting credit and to that of
the county that the work of public
instruction has never been upon a
higher plane or upon better found
alton. The record that the gentleman
has made in the Office has been due
in part to the early training that he
experienced. This coupled with de-
votion to the work and natural abil-
ity has made itpossible for the county
to have one of the best superintend-
ents that the state of Iowa possesses
today. Mr.. Dodds experience de-
serves special mention in that it was
over so extended and complete a
field that now places him in touch
with all details and departments of
the work. The gentleman was a sue
cessful teacher in the county schools
for FIVE years and then devoted q
year to the graded school of Rich
land and later of Pennington, Van
Buren, County. He was next elected
principal of the Sigourney High
school and remained in that place
for two years. The gentleman now
entered the State Normal school to
