A CHILLING RECEPTION FOR THE
COLORED BROTHER.

Arrangements are being made, according
to the New York Tribune, to establish a
large negro colony near Riverhead, Long
Island. Six thousand lots for buiding pur-
poses have been purchased, it is stated, by
the promoters OF this enterprise. Homes
are TO be provided for 10000 colonists who
will be brought from the South at the rate
OF $50 month. The name Of the colony
will be Beulah Land. The settlement is de
signed TO furnish an object lesson Of what
the negro can accomplish under the inspira.
ton Of friendly and congenial surroundings.
What is the attitude Of the white Long
Islanders TO this projectS Are they happy
10 the thought that the colored brother from
the South has decided TO migrate to North

midst of his white friendsH That ought to

people, but, judging by the statements of
our New York contemporary, they are not
organizing reception committees 10 give the
colored brother from Dixie cordial well

on their oft.repeated protestations Of affec.

Perry, negro lawyer In Brooklyn. The
Tribune quotes him as saying; ave have

DEATH OF THOMAS r. REED

Ex.Speaker of the National House Of
Representatives Thomas Bracket Reed, of
Maine, died at 1910 O'Clock last Sunday
morning at the Arlington Hotel, Washing
ton, where he was stricken suddenly i'll on
Tuesday night with what was was believed
to be acute gastrtis.
Mr.. Reeds condition became worse Satur.
day morning, when signs Of blood poisoning
reappeared. On Friday night he was at
tackled with nausea, which was taken as
a symptom that Brghts disease had de-
veloped, and all OF Saturday he was in a
condition which his physicians knew meant
an early dissolution. At times Mr.. Reed
spoke and seemed TO be in a cheerful frame
Of mind, but 1t was easily seen that death
was approaching.
At midnighta consultation was held, par
ticipated in by Drs. Gardner, Mcdonald,
Bishop and Goodnow, the latter being called
as an expert consultant from Philadelphia.
At the conclusion of the consultation DR..
Gardner announced that complete condi.
ton Of uIemia was found TO exist and that
Bright's disease had developed as the latest
complication. 1t was then decided that the
case was hopeless and that death was mat
ter of minutes only.
Mr.. Reed reached Washington on Sunday
of last week, having come TO attend to some
matters in the United Supreme Court. He
was at the Capitol Monday visiting witt
friends and former associates in Congress
and witnessed the converting OF the second
session Of the Filty-seventh Congress. APP
parently he was enjoying good health, bu
later in the day he called on DR.. F. A. Gard
ner and complained Of gastric distress.
The following day his physician compel
ed him 10 remain in bed while diagnosi
was made OF his condition. Mr.. Reed wa
strongly averse to staying 10 bed, but rise
In temperature made it imperative that hi
remain quiet. symptoms Of appendicitis
appeared, though his condition was not con
sidered as alarming. A trained nurse re
manned with him throughout Tuesday night
and the patient showed signs Of improving
Mrs. Reed and daughter, Miss Kittie, ar
rived Wednesday and remained with Mr.
Reed at the Arlington Hotel. On Thurs
day the physicians announced that the ap
pendical symptoms were abating but thai
kidney trouble had developed, giving more
serious aspect to the case.

The United States Supreme Court on
Monday affirmed the opinion of the Circuit
Court Of Appeals OF Missouri In the case OF
the Knights Templars and Masons' Life In.
surance Company VS. Rosa B. Jarmsn.
The case involved the validity of the sui.
eide statute of Missouri Of 1879, providing
that suicide shall not be defense against
the payment Of life insurance policy, the
policy involved being upon the life of John
P. Jarman, husband of Mrs. Rosa Jarman
who while insane took his life in Grundy
county, Missouri, in 1893. The decision Of
the court sustained the law and held the
company liable for the amount of the policy,
regardless Of the fact that the policy con.

CATTLE-There was not IL heavy run OF
cattle here today, so that for the week to
large as for the same days of last week.
AS compared with the same days of last
year, though, there is not much change.
The few cars of cornfed steers there were
offered this morning sold in just about yes
terday's notches Some of the cattle showed
considerable quality. but still there. was
nothing on sale that could be called choice.
The common and warmed-up stun was, OF
course, hard to sell, the same as usual.
The COW market was fairly active so far
as the grassers were concerned, and the
prices paid looked just about steady. The

sales looked steady, others were undoubt-
eddy lower. 1t is very evident that packers
and that they do not pay as good prices.
comparatively speaking, for that class of
cattle as they do for the grassers.
Bulls, veal calves and stays sold at just
about steady prices, though common kinds
were a little slow.
There was not a very active demand for
stockers and feeders, as the unpleasant
weather has been keeping country buyers
at home. The more desirable punches,
though, sold without much trouble at
steady prices. When II came to the COM
mon and inferior grades, though, the mar
ket was slow. and in some places looked, II
anything, a little weaker.
The quality OF the western beef steers
that arrived this morning was. far. from
fair quality, but as a general thing they
were below the average. The market,
though, held just about steady, and as
kinds sold at right around steady prices.
Range cows did not show much of any
change from yesterday. The market was
fairly active and a good clearance was
way Of stockers and feeders held steady.
but the common kinds were, of course,

NEW YORK, Nov. 2O.-Except for a few
irregular and comparatively unimportant
moves today's stock market was very like
that of the preceding days of this week
In the sense that attention was focused
The Increased strength Of that stock
added to the fast growing belief that i'm
portant events dealing with the local
transportation system are impending: Just
what form these probable events will take
is a matter of guesswork. Manhattan
sold up to 154% and. made a net gain, of
Sh points on very heavy transportation.
The remainder of the list, irregular for
the greater part of the day, made some
Improvement in the final hour and the
closing was easy, though below the best.
Considerable strength was shown by the
and there were sPasmodic rallies else
where. The early strength of sugar was
reported to be due, largely to short cover
Rock Island issues resulted from what
appeared to be inside buying. Fractional
losses were recorded in the early dealings
by all the coal stocks, as well as by the
more active industriale, while the. inter-
national group went below London's quo
tations, though hardening some later. The
early reaction was followed by substan-
tlal recoveries in st. Paul, Iowa Central,
Nashville. Illinois Central and Texas &
Pacific, while Missouri Pacific was con-
spicuously strong. So obviously profess
sional were operations at this time, how
ever, that reaction set in with material
declines. in some Of the issues named,
Union Pacific and Southern Pacific were
then inclined to heaviness and Manhattan
sagged in the absence Of ~confirmatory
news. Metropolitan and Brooklyn Transit
sold off to the previous days figures, but
there was nothing like a general selling
movement, the bear element showing some
timidity. The further advance of Man
haitian in the afternoon stimulated the
rest of the list and good" buying of
A~malgamated Copper was reported. The
demand for stocks came chiefly from the
shorts and was confined largely to Cop
per, Sugar, Reading, New York Central and
Manhattan. Advices from London reported
a very bearish feeling there and sales for
hat account amounted to about 10000
shares, with little buying in return.
Amsterdam and other European financial
centers also sold this market moderately.
Time money conditions, while no more
acute than they have been recently, con-
tinue to excite some apprehension. The
demand today was moderate. Call money
was again in light demand. There was
practically no change in the foreign ex-
change situation. A small transfer to
New Orleans was made by the local
banks to the sub-treasury: AS compared
with last week the banks have only lost a
nominal sum to the sub-treasury. Total
sales (par value) S1,s55, 900. United States
bonds were all unchanged on the last call.
