Lost and Found Huckster Wagon.

Michael Mahoney, of 514 Buchanan street,
who is a lively hucksterer at the age of
seventy-two. lost his horse and wagon,
with about SIS worth of provisions, yester-
day afternoon. in front of commission
house on South Delaware street. Mr.. Ma
honey was buying a stock OF vegetables
to be used for delivery late in the after
noon He had made several purchases
and put them in his wagon. AS he neared
the corner of Maryland street and Virginia
avenue he rendered something else he
should buy. Dismounting from his wagon
he returned, made his purchases and then
went back TO the corner TO get his wagon.
When he arrived a the corner he found
his outfit missing. He notified the police
department and they Joined him in search
ing for the wagon.
Last night about o'clock. while he was
at his home telling his wife of his mis-.
fortune, he was called to the front door
by a knock When he opened the door
he was met by small boy, who gave the
name OF Edward Lyons and who said he
lived on South Pennsylvania street. He
told Mahoney that he, with two other boys
had a horse and wagon that probably be-
longed to him. 1t proved TO be true The
vegetables were missing, however.

Control of the Monon Opens Large
and Valuable Territory to the
Roads south of the Ohio.

1.-The conservative and ate-maintaining
lines" said one of the oldest and most con-
sentative freight officials in this territory,
have at last hit upon a method of secur-
ing a strict maintenance of rates. In TWEEN
ty-five years experience / have never
known freight rates so strictly held to
tariffs as at present. and it is due TO the
position the United States courts have
taken in the matter, the numerous injunc-
lions Issued being effective, and hope that
present conditions will continue 1t is a
pleasure now TO do business, freight rates
being held. There is now no discrimination,
and i, for one, would not give a good hat
to secure 100 carloads of freight. The fact
is, freight men and shippers are watched
very closely, and any deviation from tariff
rates would surely be discovered before the
freight was moved; and if discovered it
would be serious matter for the freight
official. The passenger department is not
called upon for free transportation to Sc
cure business and this is quite a relief.
The fact is that business is now secured
in an honorable straight manner, friendly
feeling toward rival playing an impor-

LOCAL MARKETS STEADY
PRICE OF OLD POTATOES CANNOT
HOLD Up MUCH LONGER.
Commission Row Has More Green
Beans and Peas Than Ii Can
sell-The Grain Markets.

Local markets have been particularly free
from disturbance or fluctuations for pro-
tracted period and a present there are no
indications of an early change. Especially
is this true of coffees. sugars and all fancy
groceries. Canned goods of last years pur-
chase are we'll disposed of and wholesale
houses are placing orders for the new packs
when offered on the market The expected
advance in the leather market has not as
yet materialized, although prices are In
strong position. The hide market, except
on heavy hides, is slow and prices are
weak. The produce markets show much
activity, with no accumulations-someth
seldom known at this season OF the year
Arrivals do not equal the demand. and so
long as present conditions exist nigh prices
will prevail. Cheese is selling well, with an
easier tone to prices.
On Commission row prices on fruits and
vegetables are uncertain from day to day.
governed much by receipts. Irish potatoes
are much firmer. Commission men say 1t
is due to the fact that the stock of old po-
tatoes is pretty we'll cleaned up. New po-
tatoes are coming In so freely that old
stock will not likely long be as firm as
during the last few days. Oranges and
bananas are both more eagerly sought for
and prices are very firm. Strawberries are
in good supply still and some fine fruit is
offered. The market is overstocked with
green beans and green peas and prices are
lower. New cabbage is % cents per crate
higher and not in large supply. Receipts of
new cherries are large and prices are easy.
Green apples are about off the market, and
a few days more will bring in new apples.
Olls and paints rule steady in tone, as do
other articles handled by the wholesale
druggists.

Advantages of Monon Control.

The Manufacturers Report devotes con-
siderable space to setting out the advan-
tages the Southern Railway and the Louis
vile & Nashville obtain through securing
control of the Monon, those roads jointly
using it to get into Chicago. In part the
article says: 1T will thus be seen that
large rich and populous territory north of

innate relations with the Southern, the

beyond as far as Shreveport. 1t brings into
relations closer than ever the entire South
and large portion of the middle West

OF passenger and freight traffic between the
two sections must ensue. 1t makes an

the Industrial unrest IL is TO be observed
that many OF the demands made now and
