Commission selling was very dull TO
day, the fact that the exchange is to
be closed from tomorrow afternoon
until Tuesday morning having a tenu-
ency to restrict trading, Gnd a further
consideration was the expectation that
the bank statement would make al I'M
favorable showing. In spiro of this,
however, prices on the whole were well
maintained and marked strength was
shown by some issues. Speculation in
clined towards some of the lower priced
issues, such as Wabash and Erie. the
last named showing conspicuous
strength. The bull sentlmen. was
helped along by the fine showing for
July made by the Union Pacific and
st. Paul, as we'll as by the indications
of an impending collapse of the steel
strike and the lower rates for foreign
exchange. Grain prices also showed
further declines. The advance in the
dividend rate on Colorado South
ern first gave rise to an increased de-
mand for other issues of the company.

very good earnings were reported, es-
neciallv those of the Union Pacific and

a question among Montana sheriffs as to
the identity of the man under arrest at ST.
Louis charged with the robbery of the

the opinion that the man they have is
Harry Longabough, but the belief here is
that the man is Buck Cassidy" a noted
outlaw. Former Sheriff John Dunn of Car
bon county knows Longabaugh well, and
says the description fits Cassidy and not
Longabaugh. Dunn was with the posse
that captured Longabaugh. Kid Curry

HELD CONFIDENCE OF ALL PARTIES.
Death of Consul General Osborn at
Auia, Samoa.

A cablegram received at the State De-
partment today from Auckland, New Zea-
land, announces the death at Apia, Samoa,
October %, of Luther w. Osborn, United
States consul general at Apia. Mr.. Osborn
was born in New York, and appointed to
his present post from Nebraska July 26,
1897. Thus he was the principal represent
ative Of the authorities of the United States
in the Samoan group in the troublesome
days before the partition, and it appeared
that he alone of all the foreign representa-
tives at Apia aroused no opposition, but OBJ
tanned the confidence of the natives and
the other representatives of the foreign
powers. In addition to his post at Apia,
Mr. Osborn was also consul general at Nu-
kualosa, the capital of the Congo group of
islands.
