New York Stock Market.

New York. Nov. 10.-11 a. m.-The
feature of the stock market this morning,
was the weakness of the trunk lines
which depend largely on the steel and
coal industry for their tonnage. There
were no new developments in the matter
of reduced prices for steel and iron pro-
ducts. and the movement appeared to
simply be the elimination in liquidation
of the recent bearish pressure on this
group. The weakness in the railway
list was preceded by further decline of
II per cent. in U. S. Steel preferred and
fractional loss in the common, both issues
making new low records. Outside OF
the discussion of the reaction in the
steel trade the depressing influence in
the speculation related to the increasing
firmness of the money market both here
and abroad.

UNFOUNDED REPORT
BRINGS BAD RESULTS
Story of EVEN Assassination DeveI-
ops Dangerous
Facts.

Louisville, May 12.-Private tele-
grams received from Jackson and Lex
ington state that the report that an at
tempt had been made to assassinate
]. b. Even is untrue. A curious feat
ure of the affair transpired when an
interview was published by The COur-
Ter Journal. The correspondent pub
liShed it on receiving information
that Even was dead.
Even, according to the story, re-
tracted his first interview, feigning
ignorance of the assassin's identity,
given out in the presence of a member
of the Hargis faction. He told the re-
porter that he recognized Marcum's
ASSASSIN as Curtis Jett. Even was
standing near Marcum when the shots
were fired. He made the second state
ment with the stipulation that it
should not be published until he
should be out of harms way"

NEW VARSITY COURSE
one OF the Professors Establishes Glass
In the Methods of Max
ing Love.

Ann Arbor, Mich, May 12.-Profes-
sor Trueblood's class in love-making at
the Michigan university is proving
great success. He has not had to
place a single "absenf' mark against
the name of any member of his class
since the new course was started, while
the lecture rooms of other professors
are deserted. Professor Truebloods
method of teaching is both by precept
and example.
He gives his students an elaborate
discourse on the proper way to win a
woman's heart, then asks some fair
coed in the class to step forward and
be won. If the young man called upon
to make love to her tdoes not do so
with the proper spirit the professor
chides him for his lack of ardor and
shows how it should be done. His
demonstrations are studied with great
interest by all the young men in the
class, who hope some day to become
proficient.

BROTHERS REUNITED
AFTER HALF CENTURY
Meet in National Soldiers Home by
a Chance Re-
mark.

Milwaukee, May 12.-ThrOugh a
strange coincidence, Charles and Hen
ry Herman, inmates of the National
Soldiers Home in this city, became
reunited after Il separation of half Il
century. 1t was by chance remark
of William Brandt. the chief cook at
the home, VINO said that the Lier-
mans, who Ire acting in the capacity
of walters, look enough alike to be
brothers. that established their identi-
ty. For many yeats Henry had been
known as LOhman.
The exchange of u few questions
solved the mystery. Charles said he
came from Wiasmar, Germany. Hen
ry, who had appeared TO take little
interest in the conversation. suddenly
looked up and remarked that Was
mar was his former home. Question
after question was exchanged, until
Henry, satisfied of their relationship,
claSped the new arrival in his arms
and eXcitedly exclaimed: Charlie,
you are my brother, whom l left fifty
years ago and have never seen since"
Then the brothers embraced, tears
streaming down their grizzled cheeks.
