NEW YORK, Feb. Am improved
change can be observed in Stock Ex-
change temper; but opinion regarding
the future of the market continues much
divided. Among a large number OF
shrewd, successful men, there is a feel
ing that the time is ripe for conserVa-
tism, that the wave of prosperity has
reached it's crest, and can make little
further progress unless some degree of
recession takes place to permit another
start. On the other hand there is still
a large recognition of the fact that
while the country has been making phe-
nomenal progress, breaking all former
standards, the business situation is still
sound, and that as yet there is no ap-
pearance of overstrained credit or seri-
Gus reaction.
One amazing feature is the Slight eff
feet the loss Of the corn crop is having
upon either railroad traffic or general
business. The receipts of grain at Chi
cago during four weeks in January were
only 100000 bushels against over g.
1000 bushels the same week last year.
loss Of so per cent in this class of
traffic, due chiefly to reduction in the
corn movement. It was expected that
January would be the period when this
deficiency began to be felt, but the most
enthusiastic optinist scarcely had the
courage to predict that it would make
no difference to the grand result in earn
Ings Such loss in traffic a few years
ago would have put some roads into
bankruptcy: while, now the roads af-
fected are actually showing gains over
the large returns of a year ago
General Business Very Active
This simply goes to prove the great
activity in general business. The farm
ers of the West have enjoyed a series
of prosperous years; high prices for
corn and oats, together with a good
yield Of wheat, have largely compensated
them for the shortage in corn; the towns
and cities of the West are also still in
the midst Of the boom, and the resulting
immense demands of both raw materials
and manufactured products keep the
railroads taxed to their full capacity:

Telephones in EIavafnrs.

One of the elevators in the Big Park
RoW building had stopped between floors.
and while the rest of the passengers
quietly awaited their release, a country
man who was. on his way to the top for
bird s-eye view of the city turned pale
and loudly inquired what was the mat
ter Without offering an answer, the ele-
yator man took from its hook at his ell
bow telephone receiver and rung up the
engineer.
"Hello!' he said, my elevator IS
stuck
The engineer evidently asked where the
elevator was, for the answer came, Be
tween the twenty-sec0nd and twenty-third
floors Then there came a gradual low
ering of the cage until the twenty second
floor was reached, and the elevator man
politely requested his passengers to alight
there and take another car until some
trifling disarrangement of the machinery
operating his car was repaired.
The cOuntryman who had been taking
in the telephone talk with mouth agape
in establishment, glanced around at the
other Indifferent passengers and said:

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Senator Han

meeting of the Civic Federation on Feb.
10 to determine the scope of the organ
ization and to form subcommittee to
investigate strikes of a minor and local
nature. Discussing the matter the Sen
ator said

[ believe that today people who have
never before given a thought to Iabor's
rights or to any phase of this question
are realizing the Importance and the
justice of this movement for mediation
and Cancellation of the differences be-
tween capital and labor.
Press Backing Movement
''The metropolitan press of the coun-
try is unanimously in favor of this
movement [ have thousands of editor
ials on this subject clipped from papers
of every degree, ranging from the metro
pol1tan daily to the once a week county
paper, and among the whole lot there
are but two unfavorable articles and
these We're clipped from Socialist organ
of scurrilious nature.
This support by the press has been
something more than an encouragement
to the Civic Federation-truly, it is rare
ly one sees the press and the people SO
nearly unanimously agreed on any given
thing
Our policy will be that laid down in
the platform-mediation and Cancellation.
Mediation first-and this will be most
effectiVe when a strike is in the incip-
lent state. 1t is then that the most eff

sit is too early in the canvass to
make predictions, said a well-known
politician from the western part of
the county last Monday, "but from
what / can learn of the feelings of
the people those candidates for the
legislature who are advocating II
dispensary liquor law are going to
get the little end of the vote. | have
been sounding the people here in
Palatka on the dispensary question
and to man they are against the
men who advocate it. They tell me
the east side of the river is solid
against it, and | know that the ma
iority in west Putnam is against it,.
don't see for the life of me where
the dispensary men expect to get the
vote that they have been blowing SO
fast and furious about"
Let me predict. Sprague is going
in with big majority; he can rest
easy. The peninsula ought to have
man in the legislature and the doc
tor is sure winner. Put that as
certain. Now in west Putnam ! am
picking Wylie, but it may require a
second primary to give him the ma
iority. / think, however, that he
will win in the first. No, the people
of this county are dead set against

Death of Richard w. Lucas.

Richard w. Lucas, probably one
of the best known citizens of Palat-
ka, died at the home Of his sister,
Mrs. Mary S. Jennings on Fourth
street, last Monday morning at II
o'clock, of consumption, after an i'll
ness of some time.
Mr.. Lucas was a native of this
state, and has spent the greater part
of his life in this city, where he has
been connected with many bust
less enterprises, among them the
Lucas Line of Ocklawaha river
steamers.
He leaves four sisters, Mrs. Jen-
nings, Mrs. Shelley, Mrs. w. A.
Merryday and Miss Kate Lucas of
this city, and two brothers, j. f.
Lucas of this city and VIM. H. Lu-
cas- of jacksonville. TO these rela-
tives our community extends heart
felt sympathy and coincidence.

from the Catholic church at 3 o'clock
Tuesday afternoon, Father John
O'Brien being the officiating minis
rpr. The remains were followed to
their last resting place in West
View cemetery by Il large concOurse
of relatives and friends, and the in
mterrment took place in the family
plot.

Recent Realty Transfers.

The month just closed has witness
ed several important real estate
deals in this city. Ever since the
freeze of 80 Palatka property has
been ut a sort of stand still, hut now
that the people generally through
out the county are beginning to real
ize that they are not dependent sole
ly on oranges, that there are other
crops like potatoes, etc, that pay
fully as we'll, it is evident that a
better feeling is prevailing Judge
Vertrees says that there has been no
time since the big freeze when the
country people were so well off as
now. They all have little money,
and the prosperity of the county is
to be felt in the city;
and" said the judge, you mark
my words, in five years time even
the once despised high sandy land
of Putnam county will have a value
for farm purposes that the men of
the present day little dream Of. The
state of Florida is to furnish the cat
tie ranches of the future. The peO-
pie are just beginning to find out
something about agriculture, and the
velvet bean is one thing that has
been introduced since the big freeze
that is helping to open their eyes"
J. G. Vertrees has sold to Herbert
Wilson lot on the corner of Water
and Dodge streets, 100 X 100 feet for
$1,000
J. c. Blackwell has sold to the
Wilson Cypress Company the Under
wood property on River street. Con-
sideration not given.
J. G. Vertrees has sold for John T..
Dunn tow water front lots on River
street to w. l.. Melon of Pittsburg,
Pa. The lots are each 100 feet front
and sold for $500 each. Mr.. Melon
will build a fine boat house and land
ing for the accommodation of a yacht
he has now building in Jacksonville.
Mr.. Cone the Lemon street grocer
has purchased lot on Kirby street
of John A. Crosby.
There have been several other
small deals in real estate during the
month. The prices realized, while
not large, nevertheless show an up
ward tendency that is the best posi-
BILE indication of the arrival of bet
ter times.

Democrats of the county are with
ont exception saying good things OF
their executive committee for rec
commencing to the governor the
names of Augustus S. Willard and
Frank J. Fearnside for appointment
to the offices of Tax Collector and
County Commissioner respectively.
The recommendations went in Fri
day and the appointments were i'm
mediately made, that of Mr.. Will
lard for tax collector being made by
telegraph in order that he might
conduct the tax sales on Monday.
Mr.. Fearnsides appointment came on
Monday.
Both these gentlemen are well
known to the people of Putnam
county as being among its foremost
citizens. Mr.. Willard, for the past
several years connected With the
Kennerly Hardware Company, has
been the efficient and business-like
chairman of the Board of County
Commissioners. He is peculiarly
well fitted for the duties of his new
position, as he is thorough account
ant and we'll acquainted with the
needs of the work.
Mr.. Willard has appointed Miss
Minnie Blanchard, sister of the late
Tax Collector, as his assistant, and
Miss Blanchard has already been in
stalled in the office. The appoint
ment of Miss Blanchard gives great
satisfaction to the people generally,
as she is we'll acquainted with the
work and has in the past been a great
help to her lamented brother.
Mr.. Willard is a son-in-law of Con-
gresham Rob't. w. Davis.
Mr.. Frank j. Fearnside is the well
known clothing merchant of this
city. He is without doubt one of
Palatka most enterprising citizens.
He takes an interest in all public
improvements. When he espOuses Il
cause in this city it can be said to be
more than half won. His name car
ries weight. The people of Palatka
are so well pleased with his selec-
ton for the unexpired term that
efforts are being made to induce him
to become a candidate for the office
in the coming primaries, that the
board may have the advantage of
his business experience. He may
consent.
Mr.. Willard's announcement will
be found I'm another column.
