STOCK MARKET
Shows STRENGTH
"Bradstreet's" Points to a
Confident Feeling.
JANUARY BREAKS A RECORD
Demand Is Again Passing ProdUc-
ton in Iron and steel-Famine in
Fig Iron and Finished Products of

NEW YORK. Feb. 7.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow VIII say:
Trade developments this week have
/ been largely favorable. Prominent among
| these might be mentioned further addi-
| tions to the snow covering of the entire
winter wheat belt, an improved demand
at retail for shoes and rubbers, contin-
| ued or further enlarged demand for spring
goods from Western, Southwestern. and
Northwestern buyers, the practical open
ing OF the Eastern spring jobbing season
| in dry goods and the development of q
heavily increased demand, particularly for
! immediate delivery OF iron and steel and
| kindred products, such as hardware.
Values Show Strength.
slight but general Strengthening of
values, alike of food products. raw cotton
and some varieties of cotton goods, and
of tin, copper, and lead among the
| metals, are other symptoms of the favor
able conditions ruling
THE edge has been taken off the demand
for building materials and paints by snow
and cold weather. which also delays col
ever, very strong one, with stocks of
white pine, the smallest in years at the
beginning of the spring.
January Soars High.
''All the measures of legitimate trade
point to January equaling in most re-
spects, and exceeding in many, the rec
ords of year ago. Failures, it is true,
were larger in number, but the increase
was all in the South, from which trade
reports have been poor, but show Slight
ly more hopeful trend since cotton has
taken its move upward.
'Clearings. checked by dullness in stock
speculation at New York. are slightly
smaller, taking the country as whole,
than in January a year ago. Despite this
fact January. 1902, clearings have only
heen exceeded three times.
Prices, Go Downward.
THE general level of prices moved
slightly downward during January. The
decline in food products has recovered
since February l.
THE close of the week finds confident
feeling prevalent in nearly all lines OF
distributive trade. Stock market manipu-
lation imparts an air of strength to this
heretofore neglected branch Of business.
Demand is again pressing production in
iron and steel. There is a virtual famine
alike of crude pig iron and OF finished
products of steel Extremely cold weather
and SHOWS have hampered merchant iron
furnaces in Western Pennsylvania, and
some have had to- be banked. Pig iron
sales in January al Pittsburg were the
heaviest in any month for year fast.
BuIia Have Long Wait.
THE bulls in cotton found a long
sought for opportunity this week in the
reduced movement of supplies from the

due TO cold weather Additional strength

tone of foreign and domestic trade re-
ports, and the strengthening Of print

NOVEMBER Z, 1902

The election in Christian county
was very quiet and the total vote
was less than 5000, out of a posi-.
BILE 5000. Ia Hopkiusville only 729
votes were cast out of LOO. Only
1,05O were registered and a third
Of those failed to vote. In the fourth
and eighth magisterial districts
there were local fights and MAORI
ties were reversed. The fourth dis
trict, safely Republican, was car
ried by L. o. CARROT by 249 major
ity over H. f. Moore, Republican.
The eighth district, Democratic last
year by from so to III, went for j..
M. Clark, Republican, over L. B.
King, Democrat, by 267 majority.
The Republicans were well supplied
with money in both districts. The
Democrats had no organization
worth mentioning. 10 fact the or
ganization is very defective in the
county. King is a member Of the
Democratic Committee and yet two
out of the three committeeman in
his own district worked against
his election. Many Of
the Democratic committeeman,
whose duty it was to look after the
party S interests. failed themselves
to vote The Republicans paid but
little attention to the county atlarge
aud a little work by the Democrats
would have carried the county. The
city went Democratic for the cond
time in succession and so did Penn
broke. To the individual efforts of
few Democrats over the county is
due the fact that the Republican
majority was kept down to about
800 If challengers had been ap-
pointed in all the districts and
workers placed at the polls, much
better showing could have been

YOUNG BRIDE
Gives Up Husband, Rather Than
Live in Wyoming.
Pond River Hills More Attractive
Than Geysers Of Yellowstone
Park.

Mich Grace, a mill hand living
near Carl, has returned from Vel
lowstone Park, in Wyoming, after
a months sojourn in the great
West. He comes back satisfied
that there is "no place like home -
Incidently he brought back with
him his married daughter, Mrs.
VIM. Bircher, whose husband per-
suaded him to go West.
Last summer stranger named
VIM. Bircher came to the Carl
neighborhood, it is said as a Nor
mon missionary, but this is not ad-
mitted, He became a sutton for the
hand of Miss Addie M. Grace with
such success that on September 10
they were married. Bircher then
induced his father-in-law aud his
family TO 60 with him to Wy oming
and all left soon afterwards. Ar
irving at Yellowstone Park Bircher
and Grace secured work with a
sawmill, but Grace yearned for his
sold Kentucky home" and Mrs.
Bircher also became dissatisfied
and agreed to return with her faith
er, leaving Bircher behind. Final
ly Bircher, at the demand of Grace,
gave the latter 500 to assist in
bringing the family back to Ken
lucky and they in due time re-
turned. Miss Grace was a young
woman of good character and so
far as known Bircher made no mis-
representations. 1t is not known
whether or not Bircher will come
back to Kentucky to join his wife,
but he will have to give up Wyom-
ing to regain his bride.
