THE HANCOCK CASE AGAIN
A Reply to Judge Lancaster
Article OF Last Week.

Under the above heading, an ar
ticle has appeared in the county pa
pers over the signature of j. f.
Lancaster, which | think does me
great injustice. The Judge seems,
not to be satisfied with wrongfully,
having compelled me to pay $l66 as
costs in the case of Harper VS. Han
cock ct al, and the cost Of Hancock
Us Ellis County, but has also un-
dertaken to besmirch my character
o the people Of Ellis county.
The Judge could have only one of
two objects in view, when he rushed
into print over a matter that has
been settled by our courts. He
either thought his action needed
vindlcation, or he wanted to notify
all the people, that one case APP
pealed from his court has been af-
firmed. In view Of the fact, that all
the cases appealed from his court,
have broken even, that is, about
one-halr have been reversed and
one-half affirmed, we fail to see why
he should want to call the attention
OF the people to his record along
that line.
The alfirmanee of the case OF
Hancock vs. Ellis county, Is simply
another judicial robbery, counte-
nanced by the Court ofCivil Appeals
OF this State.
With two exceptions, the state.
ments made by the Judge in his
article are correct.

THE STOCK MARKET.
Broataer aud More Active Yesterday

REORNer RuU MDEB ACttNe hestDFNRys
 New York, Aug 20.--To-day's market was broader and more active than that of yesterday, and was generally strong. But the strength was very unevenly di-
 vided and was not consistently main-
 tained. It was distinctly a Morgan market That is to say, the buying of
 stocks was based upon the assumption that MT. Morgan has returned to Wall
 street ready to take up the broken con-
 tinuity of many important. projects which he had under way when he left for his vacation. Some of these proj- ects have got into a snarl legal, finan- cial or speculative Professional spec ulators in the street have an abiding faith that MT. Morgan will promptly settle them all. His immediate appear ance at his office, going directly from the incoming ship, in effect, gave addi- tional strength to this conviction that he would give immediate attention to
 pressing problems.
 Undeniably strengthening effect upon confidence of this capitalists return to active direction of affairs was prompt | ly taken advantage of by various spec l ulative pools to make demonstrations in their favorite stocks by rapidly ad- vancing prices. A distinctly easier tone to the money market facilitated the op- eration for the advance. The ruling
 rate for call loans was per cent, as against 4% per cent yesterday. and the market for time loans was also called easier. The foreign exchange market naturally hardened in consequence
 Continued selling of stocks for London
 account was also factor in the demand
 for exchange. The interior demand for funds seems still to be delayed, and bankers report that outside lenders
 were placing their ready funds on call in to-dayis stock market Owing to the
 large pension payments and the decline from the recent high level of govern Iment customs receipts, the sub-treasury
 has contributed over $500 900 to the
 money market this week. To-day that institution paid out $590000 on account
 of gold deposited at Pacific coast points,

which is presumably Klondyke gold. The treasury statement from Washing ton, however, shows a surplus of reye- nue for the day of s1 ,5s3, ,4ss. which cuts down the months deficit about three quarters.
 Cnfavorabie crop weather, the futility of the coal conference to effect a strike settlement and the violent break in Col oradO Fuel on account of the internal conflict in the company were ignored in the trading. The special strength of some Colorado railroad stocks was sup posed to be connected with the Mquida- tfon of Colorado Fuel
 Recent rumors of a merger of south ern railroads. of Canadian Pacif1c's al- leged intention to secure an entrance to Chicago and of a prospective absorp- tion by large railroad systems of sun- dry small systems were all manifest in- fiuences in the market. Profit-taking was general during the last hour, and the closing was active and irregular.
 Bonds were generally firm. The total sales, par value, aggregated s2,50O,OOO. United States bonds were unchanged on the last call.

Of the Stock Market Letter of J. L. Me-
 Lean & Go.
 New York, Aug. 20-In spite of fur ther break in Colorado Fuel and Iron to-day, the rest of the market was very strong and buoyant, and many sharp advances were recorded. The industri- al stocks, particularly United States Steel and American Car and Foundry. were also more active and scored good advances We feel confident that those particular stocks, together with Loco motive, will be among the leaders of the next upward movement, and the re- turn of both MT. Morgan and MT. Keene at practically the same time means much to the security market.
 There was more commission house business to-day than for some time past, which is very encouraging sign, and in all probability the public will soon begin to come into the market, with the natural result that prices will practically soar. The time to buy stocks is before this happens, not after. and we believe there is no time to be lost if purchases are to be made to advan- tage.
 Those particular stocks which we have urged customers to buy for months past have in every case been the market leaders, and will undoubt- edly go much higher before the move ment ends.
