All Day To-Day and To-Night at the
 Hirsh Stores. < Tn consequence of numerous requests the lHirsh brothers have concluded to extend the great subscription tailoring event one day, longer. The five preced- ing days had, been highly successful, and the fabrics had been all used in measuring and cutting suits to order But many persons were keenly disap- pointed because they had missed the golden opportunity. MT. Fred Hirsh was kept busy explaining the duration of the sale, and from some quarters it was understood the sale wouldn't end till Saturday., When the cumulative desire of scores of people was expressed that one more day be given them, MT. Hirsh, who is always genial and accommodat- ing as we'll as liberal. took immediate steps to arrange for another days con- tinuance.
 A telegram was received yesterday which said: "F'ill requests. Give them another day tailoring Saturday. Shipped new line woolens. Secure extra sales man. Signed Fred Hirsh.
 So to-day is the grand wind up, and all signs indicate that the Hirsh stores will be thronged "srom early morn to deWy eye'' and late in the evening. Every rank and condition in life will be there to get s12.50 suits, which are well worth $25.00.
 And all will be welcome. t.
 Professional men-clergymen, law yers and doctors. mechanics, and in- deed every type of the genus homo will receive uniformly courteous attention, and the good service which has char acterlzed the Hirsh stores and made them headquarters for all the people.

YESrERDAY'S STOCK MARKET.
IrrsguIar and Downward courSs Con-
 tInued.


 tInued.
 New York, Sept. .1S.-With a material decrease of operations to-day's stock market continued its irregular and downward course, the weakness how ever. being again confined almost ex- clusively to the industrial group, which suffered heavy recessions. Aside from the persistent reports of depressed trade conditions. no news was heard to ae- count for steady liquidations of these is sues, especially United States Steel common, which sold down to the lowest point yet recorded and was without suDDors at it's weakest moments. The heaviness of this stock was reflected in the losses sustained by Tennessee Coal, Republic Steel, American Car Foundry, Pressed Steel Car, Sloss-Sheffeld Steel, and American Locomotive. Others in the same group ruled heavy throughout the day and were vigorously pounded at the close. To this list should be added Crucivle Steel pref. which sold down over twenty points from the last record ed sale over a year ago. Outwardly there were no indications that the New York market was at all affected by the split in the British cabinet. American securities were simply neglected in Lon don. though some more selling os Steel common was reported.
 The general list held we'll during the first hour on the continuance of boying of certain railway shares, presumably for western account. There was also some disposition on the part of the traders to cover their contracts because of a more hopeful view regarding the crop situation. Amalgamated Copper advanced on buying orders which were said to come from Boston and the early rise in Sugar was believed to have re- suited from the ruling of the treasury department regarding duties on bounty paid sugar imports. Later those stocks went down in the general decline. Ar bitrage houses bought moderately of Erie for London, which was probably a seller on balance. The market contin- ued irregular and became decidedly heavy in the last hour when Steel com mon touched its low point, with result ant weakness to other issues, including the fractions and some railway shares. The closing was listless and weak. AL though the western demand for money has not been so very active in the last few days, indications point to a heavier drain on local cash ill the currency movement than was anticipated, the known movement for the week showing loss of more than $4.500.0o0. Time money hardened slightly to-day on a further demand to meet year end loans. There was another advance in foreign exchange. with an active demand for sixty day bills. Cross increases for the second week oe the month were shown by a number of railroads. including Wabash, Canadian Pacific, Norfolk and Western. Missouri. Kansas and Texas, and Denver and Rio Grande.
 The bond market was quiet and irreg- ular anad without any changes of im- portance. Total sales, par value $1,- 460,0OO
 United States 2s advanced half per cent. on the last call.

NEW ELECTRIC SWITCH.
Device at Granniss Corner Worked
 Very Satisfactory Yesterday.

Device at Granniss Corner Worked
 Very Satisfactory Yesterday.
 The test of the new electric switch which was placed in position for work ing at the Granniss Corner yesterday and operated for the benefit of the off, cials of the Fair Haven & westville road worked to their entire satisfaction.
 There are many valuable features about this new device which will be gladly welcomed by the motormen of the road and it will also assist in in- creasing the service of the road in that many waits now necessitated by hay ing to throw switches at various cor ners will be obviated, the motormen working the switch from their cars. It is stated that climatic conditions do not affect the working of the switch and that it can be operated in stormy and wintry weather as well as on bright days.
 The matter of equipping the road throughout with these new switches has not been definitely decided upon and there will perhaps, be no decision until the one at Granniss Corners has been practically tested for some time.

Says the Rev. Cortland Myers Libelled Him
in sunday Sermon.
Il won't stand for stat ements like these
from the Rev. Cortland Myers or any one
else" said Sheriff Melody Of Kings county
Yesterday.
This statement was made after he had
read the sermon delivered by the past or
Of the Baptist Temple in Brooklyn on Sun
day night and published yesterday morn
ing The clergyman positively asserted
that saloon opposite the Jail was in reality
an annex to that institution where persons
could secure passes to the Jail and where
liquor was purchased for the inmates of the
Jail.
NO one" said Sheriff Melody, ais allowed
TO go into the Jail without being searched,
and if any liquor is found on his person he
Isl put out OF the place at once. 1t Is a Grim
inal offence to bring liquor to prisoners,
and under no circumst tances is any allowed
to get it,
Sheriff Melody said he thought that the
Rev. Cort land Myers had libelled him in
his sermon and he had consulted counsel
regarding bringing suit to recover heavy
damages.
The Rev Mr. Myers, in his sermon, said
he had visit ed the saloon on Sunday after
noon with three of his detectives and had
purchased a flask OF whiskey and got three
passes to the Jail. At his home last night
one Of his family said -,

Yesterday was art students day at the

charge to all the students at the art schools
Of Manhattan and Brooklyn, and fully
500 passed through the galleries during
the hours set apart for them. Some went
at in the morning. took their lunches in
little paper boxes, and stayed all day, not
altogether to the approval of the manage
ment.
About thirty OF the students carried

some Of the most famous paintings, and

effect upon the polite patrons OF the show

regarded the sign-startling in those pre-

BOARDER' 'SONE OF The FAMILY
THAT'S JUDICIALLY SETTLED BY
BROOKLYN MAGISTRATE,

And in the Physical Encounter That Took
Place Between the Angry Husband
and the Star Boarter the Cutlass Was
Proved Superior Weapon to the Saw.
1t was judicially settled yesterday by
the Hon. Edward j. Dooley, presiding
Magistrate in the Butler street police
court, that a star boarder in Brooklyn Is
member Of the family whose roof he
shares, that he is entitled to all tho joys
Of home life and that the sanctity Of the
family circle covers all his acts, orderly
or other.
Tom Patterson, who says he is a ship
rigger and served on the old battleship
Maine, lives with his wife, Maggie, in a
frame house that the police refer to as q
shanty, in the gashouse section OF Fifth
street. Brooklyn. Tom Is so and Maggie
e 2s. That's where the trouble began.
Tom had a friend the name OF Pat
Devaney, whose wife is in Ireland. Pat
used to drop in Of an evening and bemoan
his lonesome state, far away from all
the joys and comforts Of homo. Maggie
grew sympathetic and finally induced
her husband to take Pat in as boarder.
Saturday night Tom went out to see a
few Of the boys, and asked Pat to 60 along
Pat preferred to remain at home. About
/ o'clock Sunday morning Tom returned.
So as not to disturb any one, he removed
his shoes before going upstairs. When
he entered his rooms he found his wife;
also his boarder.
Toms ideas of hospitality are pretty
strong, but as he afterward told the ser geant
in the station house, he thought this was
going little too far" By way OF remon-
STRANGE he picked up hand saw and made
a swing at his boarder. Pat lost a piece OF
his right cheek At the second swing a
gougsd forehead was added to the injuries,
Then Maggie threw her arms about
the boarder's neck and clung to him. Tom
danced about trying to make another attack
without cutting his wife.
Meanwhile Pat backed to the nantelpiece
and got hold Of three-foot cutlass that
Tom had kept as a relic OF the old Maine
Then Maggie stepped to one side and let
husband and boarder have ii out.
After few moments OF desperate duelling
the saw was proved no match for the cutlass.
With an ugly cash over his eye Tom was
driven out OF his house.
Policemen Geohegan and Smith came
running up at this moment and put hus-
band, wife and boarder under arrest They

Some Steeplechasing Stunts.

HEMPsTEAp, l.. l., Nov. 2s.-In the fox
forty-seven riders, including william G.
Whitney and his family, participated. The
large field Of riders and twenty couple Of
foxhounds drove large red fox from cover
On the Hampstead Plains. The fox led the
pack for six miles on the Plains, through
the fair grounds at Mineola and then through
several farms at East Meadow Brook.
In one OF the farms we're two cows and a
seventeen -year-old colt" which were
contentedly munching their grass until
the pack Of foxhounds and the field OF riders
made their appearance. Whether 1t was

determined, but when the first Of the field

the French Consul here has been requested
to have the sailors detained until the case

men had extra clothing and canned goods
and n barrel of wine in the boat leads to
the suspicion that they did not abandon
the ship in a hurry. The fact that four
men and some wre ok lge have come ashore
bears out the tale of the wre X, but it is
still mystery how the men, in the hurry
OF a wreck, could have provisoned the
