a liberal use Of the birchen rod seems
10 be the punishment that IS needed IN the
Bloomington case, as noted recently in
which a young lad died, supposedly as a
result Of injuries received at the hands Of
playmates. The evidence brought out at
the hearing was not sufficient to hold the
three boys, arrested for criminal offence,
and the case was dismissed But the tes-
timony did reveal the fact that the rcd
had been spared too long in a good many
Brownlngtou homes and III the public
schools as we'll The school children had
been allowed to hector and abuse the
younger ones without restraint, and this
sad ending in one case was the result. It
was decided at the hearing that the abuse
was not the outcome Of any criminal de-
sire on the part Of the boys, but simply
the inclination to pick upon some one.
Now the proper way to remedy this COW

Banker Harris Says the Western Bond
Market Is Satisfactory.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.
CHICAGO. H. Nov. H.-In an interview N. w.

bonds by Chicago house for the months of
July, August. September and October OF this
year exceed the sales for the same months for
any previous year of the past three years in

cent. We attribute these favorable results in
our bond department the fact that during the
late Industrial boom the leading banking institu-
tions in Chicago have not become involved large

issued in New York and the East generally
The Western manufacturer has probably sold out
10 the Eastern promoters. and received over 81
in cash for every dollar which the Western in
weston has invested in the industrial stocks and
bones The net result is that the West has ma
teriaily increased its cash resources by the late
industrial trust ORGANIZATIONS. and done SO at

bonds or stocks of industrial corporations, and
other large bend houses Of Chicago.
The Chicago banking institutions are not to

upon very favorable terms and sell them to our
elects aeeordsnely and. believing that now is a

the past few years by the Chicago banking in

business of Chicago banking institutions. Many
OF the Western banks and investors who have
been in the habit CT dealing principally with
New York are changing their investing business
relations and increasing their purchases in Chi

Sheep-Receipts. 200: shipments fair The
ceipts of sheep and lambs this week have been
only fair, but show increase of 200
last week. and compared with the same week q
year ago there a decrease OF over 1000 and
a loss of nearly 200 compared with the corre-
spending week two years ago. Thus far this
year the receipts nearly 1,6o0 larger than
the same period last year, and for the month
thus far the receipts are less than 200 smaller
than the period year ago. On account
or smaller supplies and better conditions IN the
general market the sheep and lamb trade here
this week has shown some improvement over last
week. There hardly enough at any time
to accommodate ell buyers, but when butchers
were not in the market shippers furnished COM
petition strong enough to warrant good prices,
and when butchers were out of the market the
supplies were none too large for shippers.
Therefore the advantage practically all OF the
week was in favor OF the statesmen. The quality
has been little better than the average. but
was more satisfactory at the close OF the week

has been made Nearly all week lambs sold as
high as $3.50. and at the close of the week SOLD

Were not many fresh arrivals to-day, but enough
to show that the market was at least steady as
compared with yesterday. Nearly all regular
buyers were in the field and the trading was
active, which resulted in an early clearance
