BOOK NOTICES.

"reminiscences of the Civil War" by
Gen. John B. Gordon. $500 net postage
additionaD. These "reminiscences, which
are destined to take the place on the
Southern side held by Gen. Grants
Memoirs on the Northern side were
written by Gen. Gordon from time to
time throughout a great number of
years. They are not, therefore, made
to-order book, but the spontaneous rec
objections of very full life. From Bull
Run to Appomattox Gen. Gordon was
in most of the great fights of Gen. Lees
army. He knew the leaders of the Con.
federacy intimately, and his acquaint-
ance was. enlarged during his career as
a United States senator by intimate
association with leaders of the Union
cause. He was the friend of Gen, Grant
TO the end of his life. This is not a
narrative history of the war, but rec
ords, with anecdote, incident, and with
eloquence, the personal experiences of
Gen. Gordon and the eminent leaders
who were his near friends. No other
such intimate personal record has been
produced on either side. Every chap
ter contains humorous incidents, and
often pathetic ones which will pass into
the permanent history of the war.
Friends OF Gen. Gordon. prompted sole
ly by a high regard and affection for
him and by an appreciation of his emf
nent services to the country, have or
ganized a bureau of correspondence.
the purpose of which Is to call special
attention to Gen. Gordon's book Of war
"reminiscences, now being published by
Charles Scribner's Sons of New York.
This book is written in the same at
tractiVe style of his famous lecture.
THE Last Days of Confederacy,' and
is characterized by the same elevated
patriotism and vivid descriptions of
scenes in that great struggle. It is
believed to be altogether the most re-
markable war book yet produced. I'm
der a contract with the publishers,
books ordered directly from Gen. Cor
don or from agents appointed by him
will yield q larger revenue to him than
il bought elsewhere. The price of the
book Is (S3.00l three dollars net, and Is
cents additional for postage, and this
price is the same everywhere, and can
not be changed by any one. 1t, there
fore, costs no more when ordered
through Gen. Gordon or from agents
appointed by him; but, as above stated,
when so ordered, 1t yields a larger
profit to him.
The following is Gen. Gordon's in

The magazine number Of The Out
look for October is notable for several
articles dealing with the personal life
of men who have, or have had, great
influence over the worlds history. 1t
Is also notable for great amount Of
original illustration drawn by artists
of ability expressly for this purpose.
The bi-centenary of the birth Of iona
than Edwards, which occurs early in
october, is made the occasion OF a
unique article by Kate M. Cone, In which
the personal rather than the theological
side of Jonathan Edwards life Is dweit
upon, and his mingled asceticlsm and
sweetness of temper are strikingly
brought out; the drawings by Charles
w Furlong aid greatly in this result.

WEEKLY MARKET REVIEW.
By William 7. Williams.

Dy Within L WlilldtIlS.
There was fair amount of activity
in the cotton market with a very ir-
regular tone. A bullish influence was
exerted early by the manipulation of
September contracts during the clos
ing days of the option. The price was
carried to 1920, and it has been stated
that some large shorts had to settle
with the leading bull at lac. On the
other hand, the rapidly increasing re-
ceipts tended to cause weakness; but
this was in turn held in check by the
less favorable crop accounts, and fears
of a bullish bureau report. High
on Thursday; low point, DISC, was
made at Saturdays opening, the mar
ket having suffered a rather violent
break on report that the bureau
would give a condition of over TO-
When the bureau reported the condi-
ton at 65. which was a good deal be-
low the general expectation, there was
a wild scramble to buy and prices
quickly advanced about Is points. A
slight reaction followed, and closing
quotations show little change from last
week, except that the October dis
count has widened.
While the bureau compares with a
condition of So last year, this years
figures must be taken with allowances
for the fact that the season is about
three weeks later. Therefore a very
late frost will be required in order to
enable the yield to increase correspond
ingly to the better nominal condition.
At the present moment it would APP
pear that the market should improve
further. and serious threats of cold
wave South should cause sharp spurts
of strength. But in the long run prices
will probably give way until the bulk
of the crop has been taken for con-
sumption, unless. of course, hopes of a
full yield should be nipped by the ac-
tuaT appearance of relatively early kill
ing fFnSt

BANKER CLEWS' VIEWS.
The Financial Outlook As Seen from
tsr~ Wall Street.

"sf~ Wall Street.
New York, Oct S.-The latter part of
the week witnessed an encouraging re-
covery in the stock market, owing to
the belief that the worst was known
regarding current difficulties and to the
fact that many of the disturbing ru-
mors afloat proved groundless. Pre-
viously fear, not reason, dominated
Wall street, and in spite of powerful
resistance liquidation ran to irrational
extremes. For some time past intrinsic
values received scant, if any. consider
alton, the extrenlities of a few rich
holders obliging further liquidation at
time when buying power was limited,
either through exhaustion or lack of
courage. There has been just as much
unreasoning distruSt regarding security
values as there was unreasonable con-
fidence a year ago, and in nine short
months market opinion has plunged
from dizzy nights of eXaltation to the
very depths of depression, until de-
clines were reached out of all proper
ton to any changes in intrinsic condi-
lions. Statistical investigation goes to
show that security values in the United
States advantage about $4,000, 900, 600
after President McKinley's first cleo
ton, and that the present downward
movement represents a shrinkage of
fully $3,50O,OOO,000 showing that the
boom advance has largely disappeared.
Such estimates are, Of course, only ap-
proximate, but they are probably not
far out of the way, and very likely they
at least represent the proportionate de-
cline. So extensive and rapid shrink
age as this is nothing less than panic
of the severest type; and, while con-
centrated banking interests have fortu-
nately been able to prevent sudden
crash and so save the country from
vastly worse disaster, it has not been
able to prevent drastic readjustment
of credit, which is responsible for much
recent liquidation. 1t Is perhaps pre-
mature to assert that this liquidation
is entirely complete, or that the mar

THE Career of Mrs Osborne" by
Helen Milecete. Price $L5O. The
Smart Set Publishing Company, New
York. This novel narrates the adven-
lures of two charming young women
who escape from tiresome country re-
lations and take an apartment in Lon
don under the fictitious chaperonage of
Mrs. Osborne. Their eecapades, their
many devices to avoid detection and
their final disposition Of Mrs. Osborne
are highly diverting. It is difficult to
fancy an extravaganza in prose that
is so entertaining a sketch of GER
tain side of London society. The story
runs along with wonderful rapidity,
and does not contain one superfiuous
paragraph. The author reveals a keen
sense of hunnor, and her novel makes
delightful reading indeed.
