Senator McCandless objected to the
senate endorsing a proposition for the
payment from the public treasury for a
large amount of printing at the rate
of 500 a page when the senate itself
was getting printing done al the rate
of $1.3S a page. Senator Achi was for
Cancellation. The House had made the
contract at that rate; it was not for
the senate to censor the expenditures
of the House in this particular any
more than it was their duty to object
to the payment by the House of $12 a
day to their clerk when the Senate
paid only so. The House in a great
many things raid more than the senate
for similar service or return. No par
ticular stand had been made by the
senate on these things, then why should
there be on this matter of the printing?
Moreover, n great deal of feeling had
been engendered among members of
the House by the criticisms made in
the senate. with the result that gen.
eral progress and legislation had been
delayed. He thought it best to adopt
the committees report and let it go at

Senator Dickey introduced bill to
appropriate $4,000 for paying the ex-
penses of the tax bureau up to June
30, 1908. This was an item omitted from
the emergency bill and the money was
required to pay for books for the board
of equalization. The bill passed sec

The senate bill appropriating $4,000
for the expenses of the House passed
second reading.
President Crabbe reported the print
s2g of Bill No. 8 making appropria-
tons for departmental use for eighteen
months, and it was taken up and con-
sidered for awhile until the question
of the effect If the County Bill should
be knocked out was sprung, when the
whole bin was referred to a committee
consisting of Achi, McCandless, Dickey
Paris and Nakapaahu. The senate
then adjourned until 10 o'clock tomor-

Des Moines. Sept. e.-During the
eight months and one week Of the year
of 1903 that have just passed, Des
Moines has had 1850 inches OF rain
fall, an average of over three inches of
rain a month. In comparison with the
rainy year Just passed. Des Moines has
had but 1.s9 less than that up to the
second week in September of 1902
These statements made by DR.. Chap
pei yesterday morning, together with
figures compiled from the reports at the
weather station, show the past two
years to have been almost presidential
in the amount O frain that has fallen.
In the month of May, 1903, Des Moines
had 1864 inches of rain, the heaviest
rain that has fallen for the
past twenty-one years. In the
year OF 1882 1916 inches of rain fell in
the month of June. The heaviest rain
fall recorded by the Des Moines weather
bureau for the month of June in 1881,
when 1879 Inches of rain fell in Desa
Moines and vicinity. Figures have
been compiled from the time when the
bureau was established in 1878

NO MERGER OF ATcHIsoN.
FURRY Merely Effort Of Shorts to Cover
Speculation Is by Professionals.

New York, Sept 9.-Atchison was
practically the only stock that showed
any activity whatever yesterday. The
total sales amounted to about 100000
shares. of which Atchison contributed
100000 shares. Only one other stock,
Rock Island. showed sales amounting
to as much as $1,000 shares The sharp
strength of Atchison last Friday while
the rest of the market was depressed
had excited unusual interest, and rum-
ors had been circulated that the COM
pany was to be absorbed by the Penn
sylvania. Atchison opened strong yes
terday, and during the early trading
advanced over point to 6SM, the
highest price touched on the present
movement. Around 6S heavy selling
caused a decline of nearly two points
from the highest and closing with net
loss for the day.
The cause of the recent activity and
strength, it may be stated on positive
authority, was the extremely large
short interest existing in the stock ten
days ago. This alone was estimated to
be fully 100000 shares. For some reason
which Wall street has never been able
to clearly explain. Atchison has always
been one of the fayorite stocks to sell
short.
Several weeks ago. WREN the rumors
We're being circulated of serious dam
age 10 the crops, a large number of the
professional traders sol. .Atchison short
as a hedge against their other hold

part of London and domestic specula-
tors very large short Interest had ac-
cumulated. Last week several large
operators Organized a pool to force
this short interest to cover 1t was
said at the time that it was the nten-
ton of this pool to force the price to
Sc, but judging from the character of
the selling yesterday the pool has al
ready succeeded in executing its turn
against the shorts.
1T is the opinion of the largest oper-
ators in the stock market that specu-
iation will continue to be almost eX-
clusively professional for several
weeks 1t is generally recognized thai
crops have reached crucial stage, and
there is no doubt that during the next
few weeks numerous rumors will BE-
circulated about the crops being dam
aged by the early autumn frosts The
circulation and the denial of such ru-
mors is likely to hold the market In
check and cause trading to be almost
purely professional.

STOCK PASSES STAY.
Livestock Shippers Will Continue to
Get Passes.

Chicago Sept 9-The railroads Will
to livestock shippers. 1t has been
widely reported that after January /
shippers would not be granted passes
to accompany their stock to the mar
kets. The denial OF this is made in
the Drovers' Journal, which is published
at the Chicago stock yards, and prob
ably keeps in as close touch with mat
tiers of interest to stock shippers as
any publication or individual.
Several times during the past four
years or more the western roads have
attempted to abolish the drovers' passes
but each time have met with som
difficulty which prevnted the move.
This time it is reported that
several causes led the officials to aban-
don their purpose. In the first place.
it was impossible for all parties to
agree on a plan of action. Certain
roads did not want to discontinue the
passes at all: others favored abolish
ing their issuance absolutely; while
still others wanted to give the shipper
a pass to accompany his stock. but to
object of the railroads is to stop the
dealing in stockman's transportation.
which goes on continually. AT present
q shipper Is allowed one round trip
pass with each two cars of stock
shipped.
1t is the rule OF the road that Mons
but the owner or his representative
shall accompany stock. 1t has been
the practice of shippers. however, and
a practice winked at by the railroads
in order to hold business, to give away
or sell transportation to any one whom
they pleased. Not only this, but many
scalpers are said to deal almost ex-
elusively in stock passes. In the at
tempt to stop these practices the rail-
roads are acting with all fairness; but
stock men contend that they should
be allowed to accompany stock in order
to be with it on the market and super
wise it's sale, as many claim that they
can get better prices when present
themselves than when the selling is. left
entirely to the commission firms. The
Drovers' Journal, commenting editor
tally on the action of the railroads,
says:
Livestock is a class OF freight Pc
culiar to itself, inasmuch as it's safety
and care requires the personal attention
of an attendant en- route to market.
1t is only fair and just that they should
see that the attendant got back home,

Minneapolis, Sept. 9-The farmers OF
the northwest have been hit hard by
the weather of the past few days Con-
tinued rains have soaked the country
from the twin cities to the Canadian
boundary line. Since Saturday night
heavy precipitation has been the rule.
lhfeshlng operations have been inter-

peatedly Any more rain at this time
would mean the lowering in grade of
much of the wheat now In the stack,
while hot and dry weather would be
likely to cause sprouting of the damn
grain and the ruin of much stacked
wheat.
A local grain house had wire yes
terday morning from Fargo. stating
that the damage was already great. and
the losses to farmers in the Red River
valley VIII aggregate a million dollars
and that further rains just now would
be bad.
AT Grand Forks rain fell from 9 a. m.

Hillsboro had heavy rains Sunday and
Monday. Comstock appears to hav..
received the worse drenching, report,
yesterday morning saying that it rained
Sunday and almost all day Monday;
that the stacks are soaked and that the
water in places stands in pools in the
fields.

twenty-four hours ending at o'clock

The significance of the larger figures
lies in the fact that the rainfall was
