Willing to Go without.

Henry Clews. perfectly bald. was
once travelling on western railroad.
Sitting directly behind him was a coarse
looking man with a rough shock of hair
the color of brick dust.
Tapping Mr.. Clews on the shoulder.
the fellow remarked:
"Guess you wasn't around when they
gave out the hair"
"Oh. yes" was the answer. "but
was a trifle late, and there was nething
left but that stuff you wear, so l told
them I'd rather have none."-New York
Times.

Paper Hunting.

One Of the most exciting Of all rid.

ing trail made by dropping pieces Of
paper. 1t can be made as dangerous
as steeplechasing or no more so than
an ordinary gallop over the fields. The
danger is in the fences to be ridden
over. says Country Life In America.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Nov 15.-Wau Street Re
view: There was still much nervous
ness and misgiving reflected In the stock
market today. and there were cratic
fluctuations up and down throughout the
session. The market closed firm, how
ever, and at new advances of l to ?
points over last night for the principal
stocks. The bank statement seemed the
deciding factor in driving the bears to
cover. The loss in cash on the week was
rather less than expected, but the loan
contraction was smaller than was hoped
for, in view of the heavy liquidation in
the stock market during the market
The market reacted sharply Immediately
after the publication of the statement
But it was agreed that the heaviest nQui-
dalton which occurred in yesterday 5
stock market would only figure for one
day in the weeks average of the banks
so that the statement underestimate the
strength OF the banks The turn of the
flow currency from the interior to
New York aroused hopes of relief Of the
money situation from that source The
extent of the recent decline and the
length Of time it has continued made an
upward reaction seem logical 10 profess
sional traders, skilled in the reading of
symptoms of speculative markets
Banks were quite unanimous in denying
any occasion for alarming rumors of f.
nanciaI unsoundness in that portion of
the financial world. and their assurances
had relieving effect upon sentiment.
It is pointed out that prices have fallen
all the way from Is to 80 points for the
principal active stocks from the high
level of the year 1t is also a fact that
at the low level of Friday, although
many stocks reached the lowest prices of
the year. there were many of the specu-
lative favorites and those among the
stocks which have suffered most severely
from liquidation that were still from 20
to SO points above the low level of the
early part of the year
In the liquidation OF this week sellers
Of stocks seem to have acted on their
own conviction that there was no pros
pect ( disposing of their large holdings
at a profit. while there was the danger
that conditions might develop which
would necessitate still greater sacrifices
In order to dispose of them, The con-
viction gained ground that prices had
been pushed too high even to discount
the many favorable future developments
expected. The high level of prices was
generally perceived to be due TO large
buying by powerful speculative commits
sion combinations which did not respect
investment demand for permanent hold
ings. Besides buying these large holdings
the speculative combinations had ex-
hsusted every device of manipulation to
lift the price level Of their securities in
the market. Il was realized also that
borrowed money represented the re-
sources by which these enormous blocks
OF stock were held on margin. The situa-
ton was thus one of a threatening
weight overhanging the market and La
bic to be precipitated upon values at
any time

INACTIVITY
AT CHICAGO
Prices of Gain, However, In
cIined TO Higher Level.
DECEMBER WHEAT IA UP
Corn and Oats Higher and
Provisions Unchanged.

Chicago, Nov. 15.-Inactivity prevailed
today in both grains and provisions, but
prices were inclined to higher level, De-
cenber wheat closing 1sQ14c higher, De
cember corn Nc higher and oats &c
higher. Januar provisions closed IN
changed TO nc higher. Their was a lull
today in the wheat pit and while there
was a little small dip soon after the open
ing, the market quickly recovered the
slight loss and higher prices ruled the re-
mainder of the day. Decreased receipts
both local and in the northwest, unfavor-
able weather and a good cash demand
were the sustaining factors. The local
crowd were wary in their dealings, being
influenced greatly by what they supposed
would be the action of a prominent bull
operator who has been taking on cOnsid-
cradle May recently. The close was
steady and near the top. December open
ed a shade lower at 729sc, advanced grad
ually TO 7S%lc and closed 1sQ14c higher az
72ssc. Clearances Of wheat and flour were
equal TO 10000 bushels; primary receipts
were 1,1SO.O00 bushels, compared with
l, 124.O0O bushels a year ago. Minneapolis
and Duluth reported receipts of 768 cars
which with local receipts of 80 cars, with
Il of contract grade, made a total receipts
for the three points of SCI cars, against
1 .175 cars last week and 913 cars a year
ago.
Corn was comparatively quiet after the
first half hour Of the day. Shorts were
again fair buyers Of the December deiiv-
cry and that option was firm, the offer
ings being extremely light May was dull
but the strength in the near future help
ed maintain firm feeling. December
closed 14c higher at sc after selling be-
tween 521zc and 531sc. Local receipts
We're 175 cars with % Of contract grade.
oats were again dull and featureless
and the firmness in other grains was
bull factor. There was some covering by
shorts. while commission houses were on
both sides of the market. The close was
steady with December 1sc higher at 2924c
after ranging between 299sc and 292zc.
Local receipts were 1S1 cars.
Decreased receipts OF hogs at the yards
with higher prices caused a firm tone to
the opening in provisions. Scattered sell
ing at the start resulted in a little easier
tone. but offerings were well taken and
frTner feeling developed. The close was
steady with January pork PIC higher at
Sl515, January lard 719c higher at $s.05,
and ribs unchanged at S7.ST11.
Estimated receipts for Monday-Wheat
40 cars. corn 40 cars, oats 300 cars, hogs
1900 head.

HOG MARKET
WAS STEADY
Was Usual Saturdays Light
Receipts.
TOP PRICE WAS S6.17 IL
Practically Nothing Doing in
Cattle Section,
TOP PRICE WAS S617 ~

Yesterday was very quiet day at the
Union stock yards. The downward ten
6encv Of the market the fore part of the
week scared the country shippers and
,bev only in few cases made any effort
20 buv hogs. It was expected that this
non-action on the part of the shippers
would cause light receipts the latter part
of the week, and that very thing came TO
mass. Last week was a hard one on the
sbippers. The market went down every
day when they had hogs to sell and went
I'D when they had none. The buyers for
The paes,ing houses had good orders but
there were no hogs TO ill them. All the
hogs on the market would not Ill one Of
the orders. The market was generally
quoted steady, but the car hogs sold
strong and not quite as good hogs as
those that brought S617h Friday sold for
the same figure yesterday and car load
of fancy hogs would have brought $500
IT the close last evening. It is expected
THAI the better prices will encourage the
shippers to buy hogs and better receipts
ere expected by the middle of this week.
Dold and Cudahy have not been getting
q many hogs as they wanted and Armour
still claims part OF the hogs on this
market This etate of affairs ought to
be favorable to sellers and the expecta-
ton issthat the market this week will not
lag for want Of buyers.

SHIPPERS AND NOTES.

Saturday has come to be regarded as
dull day on the Wichita live stock mar
ket. Cattle and hogs can be sold on Sat
urday 10 just as good advantage as any
other day Of the week.
The hog market made a bad showing
the forepart of last week. but most Of
the decline was recovered before Satur-
day night.
Chicago and Kansas City expect liberal
receipts Of hogs this week. II they go
and pound the market down for two or
three days the first part Of the week
shippers will conclude that the cards are
stacked on them.

Stock Commission company, of Kansas
City, was here yesterday visiting c. P.

sion company.

market with hogs yesterday.
