SECURITIES cHEAPENED.
Good Stocks Slump on Exchange
MiIiionaires Dropped Fortunes.

New York, Sept. 29.-The sacrifice
of gilt edge securities by capitalists
who had bitten off too much explain
the continued break in stocks. Phila-
delphia and Pittsburg were particu-
larly hard hit by the slump in Penn
sylvania, Steel and General Electric.
Traction millionaires dropped fortunes.
1t is rumored they turned over more
large blocks of stock to the Rookie
fellers. Amalgamated Copper was af-
fected by open cuts of a quarter to half
a cent pound in cru0e copper at pri-
vate sale. The Rockefellers are ap-
parently utilizing various devices to
keep the ball rolling downwards. The
Standard Oil banks today were calling
large loans, thus forcing a sale of
stocks. Some think these financiers
are using the money called in to buy
stocks. A clash is reported between
these commercial giants and Morgan.
The pressure against Morgan stocks,
particularly the steel trust, in which
new low records were made today has
increased the animosity against that
banker. Morgan tried supporting his
stocks for time, but succeeded poor.

Effect of Cutting Clover.

1t Is found that red clover produces
more aftermath if the first crop has
not been cut too close, and especially
SO, If very sunny weather occurs when
the crown of the root has recently
been exposed. 1t Is contended that red
clover is most permanent, and the af-
termath is better when the crop is cut
by the scythe than where the moving
machine is employed. This result has
been ascribed to the cut surface made
by the scythe being somewhat oblique
and SO running off the rain, whereas
the cut Of the machine is perfectly
horizontal, allowing the rain to enter
and to rot the root, but it is probable
that the greater length of the stubble
generally left by the scythe is the true
cause.-Massachusetts Ploughman.
