The coaIers were the features of the
afternoon market, and, in fact, led the
advance in prices. Delaware and Hudson
doomed in a tremendous way to 159 IL,
and closed at the top price. Its recent
gains have even eclipsed those Of st. Paul.
IL was announced yesterday that the divi-
dend on the stock hereafter is to be at
per cent, instead of 5. Mr.. Morgan's
denials that he has bought out this line
and the Ontario and Western may be
regarded as technical, also. There can
be no fact more certain than that he and
his friends are in absolute control of the
anthracite situation to do with it what
they see fit. And, this being the case,
there can be no doubt that they will make
the business a profitable one, good for
the securities of all these lines. The adj
vance of the Hudson dividend is an evil
dence. Ontario and Western advanced to
new high price, 80. and closed at the
top. Reading first preferred was advanced
points and more, but did not reach it's
former top figure. II is likely to be taken
up at any0kne. The Fries all made good
gains.

The St Paul gross earnings for the
first week of january show a decrease of
S4i 900 compared with the earnings of the
same week a year ago. The net earnings
are increasing steadily. With the out
look for harmony and stable advanced
rates in the st. Paul territory, and for
a larger share of the rans-continental
business than has come to it in the past,
the stock should sell around 17O and $50

Ar Interesting WOOD Case.

case la>i week. II appears that last fall
Norris rohn engaged /. w. Anderson Of
Gartlnervilie to haul about 200 cords Of
wood tom the Pine Nut hills to the
hume 4. Carson, and he agreed to pay
Anderson ~ a cord. Anderson was to
try to get al the wood out, if possible,
before the storms, and that If prevented
by the weather and roads he would not
need to haul whatever would be left until
the roads got better. There was some
conversation about the place where the
wood should be measured, out Anderson
refused to haul any wood, only according
to the measurement in the mountains.
he refused to be controlled by or have
anything 70 do with the measurement at
the tlume. In accordance with this agree
ment, COIN and Anderson went out to
the Mills and 2O2 cords were measured
out FOR Anderson to haul. He h .uled ITO
cords 10 the tlume and seven cords " hich
he bought himself, and for which under
agreement he gave a credit of $3 per
cord. Hu left about IL cords in the camp,
and he lost about three cords by hauling
of the grade and dumping it, and " hen
he Went back to get it some one had leen

The WaIsh-R0berts Contest.

The lawyers engaged in the Walsh
Roberts election contest for District
Attorney of Ormsby County, have finally
got down ION the mat and are seeking a
Nelson lock on each other. There is but
one new question for the Court to decide
and that was raised by the attorneys for
the defendants. Attorneys for plaintiff
last Saturday claimed that all ballots
that had voting marks before or after the
Presidential candidates should be thrown
out, and the court conceded in their
| view, but made no ruling. Plaintiffs
| counsel then asked to be heard, and one
of them argued the matter with some
| heat. They claimed that ballots contain
| ing voting marks after the names of
Bryan and Mckinley should be counted,
ii otherwise good. They cited the stat
ute to show that the law provided that
/ the names oil the Presidential candidates
should be on the ballots, and they do APP
pear on the ballots as follows for exam
pie: For President William Jennings
Bryan" They further clted the statute
to show that the law provides that the
voter shall mark his ballot by Il cross OF
an \ after the name Of the candidate
They then argued that under the decis-
ions the voter could not be disfranc hised
by any act Of the officers or fault of the
law. They further argued that it was
impossible to use such marks as distin
gushing marks, and that such marks
were not distinguishing marks was evi
dent from the fact that there were a.
many thus marked for Mr.. Mckinley a:
for Mr.. Bryan. The arguments of coun
sci seemed to have created an impression
on the Court because he ordered counSe
opposed to that view to be prepared t.
argue their side on next Tuesday-today

| TRAINED ACTIVE YOUNG MEN.
English Papers Complain Of Amer
ica's Methods Of Training,
BRITAIN is OUTDlSTANCED.

london, Rec. 31.--The Times, in
another article on American engineer
ing progress, deals with educational
influences and arrives at the conclu-
sion that it is not SO much superiority
of technical education which explains
this progress as the fact that Americans
give to young men positions which in
England are supposed to belong to
long experience.
Commenting editorially upon the
whole situation and in regretful
tone, the Times says: at is useless to
disguise the fact that Great Britain is
being outdistanced. The competition
does not come from the glut caused by
miscalculation as to the home demand.
Our own steel makers know better and
are alarmed. The threatened compe-
tition in markets hitherto our own
comes from efficiency in production
such as never before has been seen.
sat the dawn of the century it is
we'll to reflect on the truth strongly
presented by our correspondent that
one of the most disquieting factors in
the problem before us is that the
United States have trained body of
young men determined to make their
country great and who have been
educated to living, practical interest
in things needful to that end"
