SELECTS A CANDIDATE.
Michigan Democratic State Central
Committee Names L. T. Durand
for Governor.

Detroit, Mich, Oct. 1.-After an AMI
mated discussion, lasting nearly three
hours Tuesday afternoon, the demo-
cratic state central committee selected
L. T. Durand, of Saginaw, as the party's
candidate for governor. The new NOM
ination was made necessary by the
withdrawal of Judge George II. Du-
rand. of Flint, brother of Tuesdays
nominee. Judge Durand was stricken
with paralysis five weeks ago and his
condition has remained such that all
thought of his going through cam
paign or filling the Office of governor
had to be abandoned.
The fight Tuesday lay between the
gold democrats, who favored L. I. Du-
rand, and the silver leaders, who want
ed to nominate State Senator j. w.
Helme, of Adrian; Charles R. Sigh, OF
Grand Rapids, or some other demo-
crat who had come out a. silver man
in 1896. Helme's friends stood by his
| declaration that the state conventions
should be reconvened to fill Judge
Durand's place on the ticket, and as
he had declared that he would not ac-
cept nomination at the hands of the
committee, his name was not present.

committee stood IA for Durand and ten

Mayor of Detroit Receives Accepts
ances of Invitation to Interstate i
Conference on Coal Question.

Detroit Mich, Oct. 1.-The telegraphl
bury to governors of a number OF
states and the mayors of the principal
cities in the east, middle west and
northwest, asking them to send dele
cations to participate in national
conference on the coal strike, have met
with a great number of acceptances,
and the proposed conference bids fair
to be tremendous gathering. A great
majority of the messages received ex-
pressed hearty sympathy with the con-
ference and promise to send dele
gates. A few refusals to participate
have been received, among the most
notable being from Gov. Murphy, of
New Jersey; Gov. Nash, of Ohio, and
Mayor Ashbridge, of Philadelphia.
In answer to the message from May
or Seth Low, of Greater New York,
asking for further particulars, Mayor
Maybury sent the following telegram:
Conference is expected to take up coal
situation as it exists a date of meeting.
Then will discuss best and most practi-
| cable means of obtaining that to which
we are fairly entitled. viz: coal sup
ply. The plan to be pursued to enforce
our demand must be governed by the
wisdom of the conference, and should
be such plan as will be most effective
ly and promptly applied"
In reply to a message from Mayor
Wells, of st. Louis, saying he thought
it would be better to have the dele
gates appointed by the business organ
izations of the city, Mayor Maybury
wired that it did not matter who app
pointed them so long as the city was
represented at the conference.

OUR PENSION SYSTEM.
Comm lis sd oner Ware Presents His
Annual Report-Nenrly 1,OOO,-
900 Names ON List.

Washington, Sept. 29.-The annual
report of the commissioner of pen
sions, Eugene f. Ware, shows that the
number of names on the pension rolls
still is under the million mark, despite
a net gain of 5,732 pensioners since
1898. The total enrolment July l.,
last, was 999,446, against 997,735 last
year. The total comprises 73S,sO0
soldiers and 26O,637 widows and de-
pendents. The aggregate includes
4,695 pensioners outside the United
States.
The number of death notices Of old
soldiers, not now in service, received
by the bureau during the year was
50,12S, but only 27,o43 of them were
pensioners. The report says that the
death rate among the pensioners for
the coming year will be about 10000,
and the losses to the rolls from other
causes will be about 5000.
The total amount paid for pensions
during the fiscal year was $137,5o4,-
26s, and the yearly cost of operating
and maintaining the bureau and the
agencies, outside of the payment of
pensions proper, aggregates $780,
500. The pension system. says the
report, since the beginning of the gov
eminent has cost $4,000. 500, O19, exclu-

secretary shaw's Action Serves to
Brace Up the Wall Street
stock Market.

New York, Oct. 1.-The stock market
which closed Monday utterly demor-
allied as result of stringent none
tary conditions and other unfavorable
circumstances, made sensational re-
covery Tuesday. The chief causes for
the complete reversal We're the action
of Secretary Shaw in removing the re-
straint on bank reserves, and persist
ent reports from various quarters that
the coal strike had at last reached the
point where the negotiations for set
tiement We're actually under way. For
this last rumor there appeared to be
little or no foundation, according to
the individual and collective state
ments of the leading operators made
after the regular weekly meeting.
Another influence for better prices
was the decline in call money rates,
though during the morning loans were
made as high as 10 per cent. A large
part of the days loans was made at
around ten per cent, and the rate at
the close went down to two, but this
was really nominal, no money being
! placed at that figure.
Opening prices were better all the
way from fraction to five points
| Wide operations in which blocks OF
| 1000, 5000 and 5000 shares changed
| hands were numerous. The greatest
| gains We're in the Standard railway
shares. notably ST. Paul. Louisville
Nashville (Which bore the brunt of the
previous days pounding), Missouri Pa
cifc. Union Pacific, the coalers and {
number of s'pecialties.
On the floor of the stock exchange
the greatest excitement and activ
ity prevailed during the first hour
Brokers on the short side were cover
ing with all possible speed. and tn,
bull faction was in absolute control
The list manifested a vacillating tend
ency soon after the first bulge, ant
many of the active stocks whose in
itial gains had been largest. recedet
from one to three points. The open
ing rate for call money was 10 per cent
but soon advanced to IS, creating grea
confusion among those committed t,
higher prices.
The most sensational operations de
veloped in the afternoon on news from
Washington that the president and hi
cabinet had taken steps to terminal
the coal strike. In spite of, the All
sence of any confirmation the mar
ket seized upon this announcement
and with the coal stocks in the lea
the entire list shot upward The maj
ket developed buoyant tone in tn
last hour, though operations were cor
fined largely to the coalers, which wer
heavily traded in and closed at prat
tically the best prices of the day. TIL
days operations were in excess c
100000 shares.
Secretary Shaw's visit to the stree
and his talks with the leading banl
ing interests, helped in no small mea
ure to restore confidence. Local banl
loaned moderately.

Rumor of Roots Retire M emit.

Washington, Sept. 3O.-The Post
says: According to a rumor which was
current Monday, Secretary Root pro-
poses to retire from the cabinet some
time next spring or summer. The
story gained publicity after Mr.. Root
had gone to New York at four o'clock
Monday afternoon, so that no state
ment concerning the matter could be
obtained from him. Some of his col
leagues in the cabinet, who were seen,
said that they had no intimation of Mr.
Roots resignation.

Washington, Sept. 27.-Brig. Gen.
Funston, in his annual report of the
department of the Colorado, declares
that the recent anti-canteen legisla-
ton of congress has lowered the dis
cipline of the army, ruined scores of
good soldiers and enriched saloon
keepers, gamblers and dissolute
women. His report announces a de-
plorable increase in offenses, partic-
ularly desertion, attributed to the
