STOCKS AND BONDS.

Now York June 19.-The decreased
activity in today's stock market re-
fiected doubts and hesitations in the
speculative mind. The many and va
rious fluctuations seemed to represent
as much as anything the efforts of the
professional traders to discover the ac-
tual condition of the market by a test
ing process. There was undoubtedly
"a considerable amount of speculative
liquidation, but the professional bears
also had their share in the weakness
of the market as was quite conclusive
shown by the substantial rally late
n the day, when they began to look
or stocks to cover their short con-
tracts and found limited supply. The
late rally was achieved, however, on a
light volume CT dealings the bidding
up prices by the, professional bulls
against the efforts of the bears to
cover having tits share in the move
proportion of the trading was con-
gested in few stocks, which also
showed the widest price fluctuations.
st. Paul was conspicuous in this class
and the apprehension that much of the
recent runners regarding developments
in that stock were purely conjectural
had much to do not only with its
movement, but the generally unset
tied tone of the trading. There was
seemingly good authority cited today
tof assertions that it was not contem-
plated at all to effect any actual alb
sorption or legal passing of control OF
int hay of
stock for new bonds. The absorption
Of part Of ST. Paul stock by other
rival railroad interests may go far to-
wards confirming the safety of the
general railroad situation, but a ques-
ton arises as to the increase that
would result in the investment value OF
st. Paul stock itself. The absorption
of large amounts of the stock puts il
in a technical position to be easily
manipulated, owing to the large reduc-
ton in the floating supply and the
plausibility given to riimors regarding
the plans for the stock. The extreme
decline in the afternoon reached 2a be
low last night. Union Pacific moved

| 1t probable that the money market
will continue active during the rest of

New York, June 19.-While there
was fair movement in cotton values
today business was exceptionally light
and the net result of fluctuations did
not materially favor either side. News
was conflicting and orders were not to
be depended upon. Traders were con-
tent to hold aloof for further incentive
from the South or abroad, meanwhile
devoting attention to the quiet evening
up of old obligations. The market
opened firm, unchanged to three points
higher. Soon after the call the trading
level was net five to six points higher
on demand from shorts, light Southern
and some buying for New England
spinners' accounts. Cables were sig
nally better than lookoed for and for
a time sentiment rather favored bull
market. But before IL o'clock dis
patch from Fort Worth announcing
showers followed by rain in
Northern Texas this morning undid
several large amounts of July cotton
and created distrust among later
month holders. Room bears pounded
the market severely during the rest of
the forenoon. From S.24 July broke
to SIS and from 7.37 October declined
to 7.31. During the noon hour there
was a slight tendency toward reaction
but in the absence of important news
business was small For the rest of the
day the market worked within a mar
row rut and no concerted effort
was made to prove prices either
way. While New Orleans was
heavy seller here on the
forenoon decline, the August option in
the South continued to hold its abnor-
NAL position Of five points above Au-

Unknown Man Killed.

An unknown man with bullet hole
in his breast was found in the toilet
room of an incoming Minneapolis &
st. Louis train into Minneapolis. The
mans body was not found until the
train crew began cleaning the cars in
the yards, after the passengers had de-
parted.
1t is supposed that the man came
from Detroit, Mich, but he had SO
carefully concealed his identity by re-
moving everything from his pockets
and from a notebook he carried that
nothing but a hat purchased in Detroit
is left to aid the officers in locating
his identity.
Neither the trainmen nor any of the
passengers know when the deed was
done. The body was taken from the
train and placed in the morgue to
await Identification. There was no
money in the dead mans pockets.

happy people, he might be permitted to
close his earthly life in the home he had
loved.
HE has, indeed, returned to US, but
how? Borne to the strains of Nearer, My
God. to Thee and placed where he first
began life's struggle. that the people might
look and weep over so sad a homecoming.
But it was a triumphal march How
vast the procession. The nation rose, stood
with uncovered head. The people of the
land are chief mourners. The nations of
the earth weep with them. But, oh, what
victory. / do not ask you in the heat
of public address, but in the calm moments
of mature reflection, what other man ever
had such high honors bestowed upon him,
and by so many people? What pageant
has equaled this that we look upon to-
night? We gave him to the nation but a
little more than four years ago. He went
out with the light of the morning upon
his brow, but with his task set, and the
purpose to complete it. We take him back

At the conclusion of DR.. Manches-

MINNESOTA NEWS.
A Striking Exhibit.


Through the Buffalo exposition, Min
nesota's fame is still being manifested.
The latest thing to claim the attention
of the world is the Minnesota exhibit
OF fruit. One of the displays COM
mented upon in the press is repro
duction in fruit of Fort Smelling. The
floor space occupied is 24x24 feet and
the fort rises to height of Is feet.
The display is backed by mirrors, which
multiplies the effect. Hidden by the
mirrors are vases, in which are flowers
and vines, allowing the bloom and
green of the trees to be seen alone as
if they grew out of the fruit.
In the center is the old circular fort,
made of apples. From the portfolios
protrude cannon, four in number, made
of.crabapples, each gun requiring two
bushels of apples in the making. In
the mouth of each cannon is perched a
white dove, the sign of peace. Be-
tween each large port hole are musket
holes, trimmed with mountain ash ber-
ries. While the face of the fort is made
of Wealthy apples, the famous Mime
sofa variety. there are so other varie-
ties used in the display.
At each corner of the display are
handsome Minnesota banners, and over
all is the national emblem, flying over
the announcement that Minnesota is
the ''Bread and Butter State" Buff
falo papers are devoting much space
describing the many unique displays
made by Minnesota.

Become Blind at Nfcht.

A ST. Petersburg dispatch relative
to night blindness in south Russia
says: "This is one of the queerest
diseases known to medical science,
and is one of the camp followers of
the famine" Night blindness, how
ever, is no new disease. 1t has al
ways been more or less common in
armies where men have been forced
to sleep without cover. The cause is
usually referred to the moon and the
sufferer is said to be moonstruck, al
though it has been supposed that the
glare of the sunlight upon sand
beaches is sometimes the cause of it.
AS is said of the disease in Russia,
the sufferer can see nothing after
twilight, even though the moon is at
full and the sky clear, but it is some
what remarkable that he can see by
candlelight. 1t is not unlikely that
the Russian night blindness is direct
ly traceable to exposure in the open
air and that it is only indirectly due
to the famine.-London Mail.

Casket Taken to the Church.
From the south parlor of the frame
house which had so long been the fam
ily home the casket was borne to the
First Methodist church, where states
men, diplomats, great men of nation,
Representatives of the world, gathered
with the Borrowing members of the
family. Mrs. Mckinley did not see the
marching columns that twined
through the city's streets from noon
until darkness settled down. While
the last rites were being said she re-
manned in a room of the family home,
dazed, not realizing that death had
come to her husband, almost para
1yzed mentally.
The Services.
The services in the church were SIM
pie. They began with the rendition
of an organ prelude, Beethoven's fu-
neral march. AS the last notes of the
prelude were stilled, the Euterpean
Ladies' quartette, of Canton. sang
"The Beautiful Isle of Somewhere"
Rev. o. B. Milligan, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church of Canton, deliv-
cred the invocation.
Scripture Reading.
The Ninetieth Psalm was read by
DR.. John A. Hall, of the Trinity Luth-
eran church. of Canton, and that
portion of the fifteenth chapter of
First Corinthians included between
the forty-first and ffty-eighth verses
was read by Rev. E. P. Herbrouck, of
the Trinity Reformed church, of Can
ton. The favorite hymn of President
Mckinley, Lead, Kindly Light was
then rendered by quartette of two
male and two female voices. When this
hymn had been finished DR.. C. E. Man

which was in part as follows:

1t seemed to us that 1t must be His will

passed on. Then came the tidings of de-
