 YET RECEIVED
That Is What J. D. Carroll Thinks of Forest Reserve Order. Has Little Confidence
 In Being Able to Get Saw Logs.

Alaska, as lt grows very rapidly and dles young. hlt Is not cut at a certain oge lt Is no, only lost but it sneumbsrs the earth and lntsifsrss with the growth Of younger tlmtsr h substantlatlon of his thOery be points to the fact that many forests To Alaska are already dead and the bare trees stand as monuments to tho poverty Of the soIl.
 Mr. Carroll proposes to devote hls snsr- gIes toward the abolition of the reserve and hs wants tho ssslstantanes of all those To Alaska, who are sufficiently Interested.
 The evidence that Mr. Carroll has that Lieut.. EmmOns was the lnstlgatOr of the reserve, comes To letter from the secretary Of the Interior to Hon. J. T. McClsay, member of congress from AankatO, Mlnn. The letter was written In response to a let ter by Mr. MeClsary for Information on the subject at the request of Mir. Carroll.
 The letter 10 part follows:
 Referring to your communication of Sth Instant relative to the proposed Gea- tlsO of a forest reserve ln Southeastern Alaska, Including Prince Of Wales Island and adj icsnt teulte-1, | enclose herewith for vour information copy Of proelama- tlon Of the president, signed the 20 ultlmo, creating the Alexander Archipelago Forest reserve In Southeastern Alaska.
 "ln relation thereto. desire to say, on ihs 18th Of April, last, the president trans mi,,sd to this department, under cover of letter, the report ot Lieut.. c, T Emmons, of the navy, on the wood lands Of Alaska with the statement that the scheme struck him favorably, and requested that the matter bs looked Into with the view of having the reserve created. li such action was proper.
 "As result Of the Investigation, the president advised the department through Go, acting secretary to the president, on August Q, that it was his desire that said reserve be created at ones."

LONDON, Oct. H.-Gold amounting to

England today for shipment to Egypt and
drawn. Gold premiums: Buenoe Ayres,
1871 Madrid, 31.05; Lisbon, 26.5o; Rome,
o.0S. Gold bars are quoted at Us l0d and
American eagles at 76s sd. Discounts were
irmer today. The directors OF the Bank
of England were reputed to be contemplat-
ing taking steps to reduce the plethora of
money. On the Stock exchange the general
weakness was less marked. though there
vas little to encourage dealings. The re-
Iyived talk of an early issue Of a TTansyaal
proved. Later the American position domi-
rated the market. Americans opened some
what steadier; though inactive and nerv-
Gus, pending the outcome of the stock nego-
tiations and large amounts were carried

counts. The speculative interest in London

CATTLE-There were only about half as
many cattle here today as arrived yester-
day, but for the two days the supply is
heavier than for the same days of last week
and of last year.
There were several loads OF cornfed cat
tie on sale. but they were not what would
be called good. Buyers consequently did
not take hold of them with much life, as
they have preferred to the short-fed corn
cattle. Strictly good cornfeds would prob
ably have sold to good advantage.
The COW market was active and stronger
early in the morning. Some of the early
market. though, showed considerable ac-
tivity and the prices paid were steady to
strong, as compared with yesterday. The
bulk Of the offerings was disposed of in
good season.
Bulls, veal calves and stays did not show
any quotable change.
The stocker and feeder market was in
considerably better shape than 1t was yes
terday. All the buyers seemed to be anxious
for supplies and as a result the more de-
sirable grades changed hands freely at
prices ranging strong to a dime higher. The
ommoner grades were a little easier to dis
pose OF than they were yesterday, but still
they could not be quoted much more thai
steady.
Western beef steers were a scarce article,
but anything good commanded fully steady
prices and some sales looked a little
%tronger Range cows were also active and
steady to strong and some OF the early sales
looked a little higher. Stockers and feeders
that were at all good were In active de-
mand and could be quoted strong to a
dime higher. Common kinds did not show
much change. Representative sales:

Der oats was a shade lower, while pro-

Indifferent cables, large receipts and
favorable weather all combined to create
an easier tone to wheat at the opening. A
strong demand for May developed, princi-
.pally from a leading long, and with light
offerings, the market soon recovered its
credited with good buying. The sharp up
turn in corn was a strong bull factor. De-
Cember opened a shade to BGhc lower at

was a rebound to 1hc, but another decline
occurred and the close was hahG lower at

punches that did arrive were picked up
in a hurry at prices that range from
strong TO a dime higher than yesterday. 1t
Is very evident that packers are getting
hungry for some good stuff.
There was a good demand for feeders. so
that. although the supply was liberal. the
market was active and stronger. The better
grades in a good many cases sold a dime
higher than the same kinds brought late
last week. That was the case of both
sheep and lambs. The commoner grades,
though, did not show much OF any change.
