THOUSANDS NEED HELP.
An Appeal Sent Out for Kansas City,
kas., Sufferers.

Kansas City, Mo, June 14.-The re-
lief committee of Kansas City, Kas.,
has issued an appeal in which is stated
that MANY thousand are dependent on
charity for food, shelter and clothing
and the most meagre outfit of cooking
utensils and furniture. These cannot
be supplied without outside and and
unless it is furnished to a large amount
the most dire suffering and widespread
sickness and even death must result.
The National Tumbler Works at Green

NEW YORK, Aug. 22.-The stock mar
ket was practically idle today, large
portion of the membership being absent at
the yacht races, Or for end of the week
holidays out of town. A holiday on the
London stock exchange subtracted also
from normal business. The Sluggish
movements of prices under these c1rcum-
stances were of little significance. United
States Realty preferred suffered from the
rumorS prevalent that the next dividend
would be passed. 500 rose momentarlly
on the declaration of the first dividend
and the stock then yielded on profit tax
ing. Favorable weekly reviews of trade
by the mercantile agencies were a reas-
nothing threatening in it.
Attention was attracted to the large
import OF re1mport movement OF cotton
thus far in August for delivery on con-
ner. There is an advance in the exchange
market. The Financial Chronicle points
out that the municipal bond market has
suffered in common with that for other
securities from the dearth of demand
and estimates that no less than 1856 offer
ings of municipal bonds throughout the
country have failed of takers in the last
three months. There was a slight spilling
out of stocks on the publication Of the
bank statement as the large loan in
crease was a disappointment, but the
room shorts in the narrow market COW
cred again before the closing, Which was
steady and almost stagnant. Bankers
are inclined to attribute the loan ex-
but to larger extent to regular COM
mercial demands.
Prices Of bonds rose but slightly during
the week in company with the recovery In
little affected by the reaction in stocks.
Quotations on call for United States
bonds have been unchanged.

notably heavy.
Howard, LapsIey & Co. say: It has

ment again a great disappointment but as.
far as can be judged prices had their
decline and will continue to work in mar
row limits until another change takes
place.

was of such character that it pleased
neither the bulls nor bears. There was
a $9,000.000 increase in loans Coppers
