YEsTERDAK,s STOCK MARKET
Few Large Buying Orders Aids In
 Hardening Market.

Hardening Market.
 New York, June 3.--During the first hour of to-days market there were a few large buying orders executed in a number of stocks, lifting them to a higher level and causing the general market to harden in sympathy. The movement was not pursued and the market fell into intense dullness with not evidence of disposition either to buy or sell. The undertone was kept firm by this absence of selling pres sure, but the market was as near stag nant as at any time since the present neglect set in. The nervous tone in the cotton market gave rise to some rather disturbing rumors of money troubles growing out of the conditions in that market. but the effect was ignored on the stock exchange. The estimates of the weeks currency movement indicate a continuance of the flow to this center, although the New York gain seems to be less than of last week and New York exchange at Chicago is rising slightly With the gain on sub-treasury opera tions there is a promise of an increase ill cash of over $7,000,000 to be shown by to-morrows bank statement. The stat ment of the June money in the coun- try was of interest as showing a de- crease of but $23, ,365, 21S for May in spite of the heavy outgo of gold. The months decrease is more than accounted for by the decline in gold coin and certificates. Permission was given to-day for the telegraDhic transfer to New York of $1,l50,000 in Japanese yen to arrive in San Francisco next week. The reports of net earnings for April of the Union Pacific and the Southern Pacific were decidedly more favorable than has been the rule for that month, the small in- crease in gross being supplemented in both cases by a small decrease in oper-

France, England, Germany and Italy
have each furnished their share, and
our own country in the last century
has produced many of the greatest
surgeons of the world. Surely Gross,
SancoaSt, Sayre and Sims deserved to
rank with Chopart, Velpeau, Lisfranc
Syme, LiSton, or any other European
surgeon of fame.
1t is not probable that you
all can be great surgeons, or
famous city doctors. But outside of
the professors chair, and the city
clientele there is much contend
ment and usefulness for you. 1 would
instil ambition into the life of every
young doctor, but at the same time,
l would like to show him that there
are other lines of works in which he
can be as useful, and should be as
cOntented The consciousness of hav-
ing the power to be useful should
furnish the chief source of happiness.
The country doctor has given to us his
full share of medical celebrities. From
their ranks came such men as Marion
Sims from a little parish in South
Carolina, Ephraim Mcdowell from
the backwoods of Kentucky, Crawford
Long, whose discovery of anaesthesia
robbed surgical pain of it's terrors,
from a crossroads in Georgia-all too
of our Southland. While men of their
genius are rare, the world is full of
the typical William Mcclure. The
country doctor must be full of re-
sources, and often endowed with great
courage. 1t was that sublime courage
and self reliance that guided
the hand of Ephraim Mcdowell

A PRETTY ROMANCE
Wealthy Native of New Jersey State
Weds Charming Widow at EIdora-
Owns Thirteen Houses But Will
Have to Rent Cottage. .

Special to Times Republican.
Eldora, Sept. 15.-M. M. Crosbie, a
pioneer retired merchant of Asbury
Park, N. j., whose genial personality
extends into Iowa, having made his
home on a farm north of this city for
several years previous to the death of
since, was united in wedlock here
Wednesday evening to Mrs. Agnes M.
Crane. The wedding ceremony was
performed by the Rev. G.. B. Shoe
maker, pastor Of the M. e. church, at
the home Of the brides brother, B. II.
Ibach.
1t is a love story with as much ro-
nance in the opening and closing
chapters as is ordinarily knit together
by the writer's Of fiction. 1t is imma-
terial where they met. During a dark
period of Mr.. Crosbies life he found a
great deal of gentle sympathy from
Mrs. Crane, a charming widow Of
middle age, possessing a sweet dispo
sition and such sterling qualities that
early in the summer it was whispered
that Mr.. Crosbie's widowerhood was
likely to be of short duration. Mr..
Grosbie is quite wealthy and is a gen.
tleman of worth. He owns thirteen
dwellings in Asbury Park, but be-
cause all of his properties are leased
to permanent tenants, he will have to
begin housekeeping in rented cot
tage.
Mr.. and Mrs. Crosbie left last night
for a trip to st. Louis Of about ten
days duration.

Special to Times Republican.
Hampton, Sept 15.-W1thin a few
rods Of the spot where the first Whit
settlers of Franklin county located fiji
ty-one years ago today, the old set
tiers of Franklin county, several hun
dred in number. are today holding
the meeting Is at the lower end o.
| Maynes' grove, about two miles wes
Of Geneva and near the place at which
James &. Reeve built the first log cab
ms erected by white people in this
county. The semi-centennial meeting
of this organization was to have been
held at this place last fall, but the
weather was such that the meeting
was held in the court house at Hamp-
ton. AT that time there were a num-
Der of the Reeve family here from
Ohio. They were either members Of
the Reeve family which first settled
here or direct descendants. None of
them will attend this year. but there
are present at the meeting four peo-
pie who came to Iowa fifty-on years
ago and have lived here continuously
since then. They are Mrs. r. e..
Train of Bows, and Mrs. H. A. Clock.
O. G. Reeve. and j. A. Reeve of Hamp-
ton. These people are all children
of James b. Reeve and came with the
family when they first emgrated here.
The principal speeches of the day are
to be made by Senator Dolliver, Con-
gresham Hepburn and Congressman
Birdsall. Hepburn was district at
torney from this district at an early
date. A big picnic dinner was spread
under the trees and the speeches were
given after dinner.
The old settlers association is a
strong organization composed of sew
nral hundred members. These meet
ings are held annually, generally at
this same spot, in Maynes' grove. Any
person who has been resident of the
county for twenty years Is eligible to
membership. A complete list of the old
settlers is kept and each year roll
call of the ones who have died dur
ing the past year, is read. The off,
GERS of the association are: William
Boots Of Hampton. president; e. Fl.
Raymond of Geneva, 8. O. .Gridley OF
Chaplin. and David Church of Hamp-
ton, vice-presidents L. B. Raymond,
of Hampton. secretary and treasurer
The success of the association is large
ly due as much to the efforts of Col.
L. B. Raymond. An old settler him-
self, having lived in the county since
some time in the fifties, he always
takes an active interest in the meet
ings and has kept the record of this
association for number of years.

IS BAD FOR SMITH
Reports of the Trustees Of the kaesier,
shesff and Mersie Estates Show
Smiths PecuIations From the Heirs
Am. united to Nearly 100000.

Davenport, Sept. 15.-The reports OF
the trustees In the estates of Hiram P.
Bersie, Charles H. Sheaff and the
kaeiser heirs have been f1led and their
showing is sorry one for Smith, whose
populations in the Sheaff and Kaeiser
estates amount to the enormous sum of
$50, 542.43, not counting what short
age is shown in the Ella w. Parker es-
tate, and leaving out the robbery of
every dollar contained in the Hiram p.
Bersie estate.
The trusteeship under the will of
the late Hiram P. Bersie was admin
port filed by S. p. Bawden, attorney
for the German Trust Company, on
Tuesday afternoon, shows that the en-
tire substance of the trust has oeen
wasted Not single dollar rema,ns
in it today, both principal and inter-
est having been dissipated to the sum
of over $1,000. There remain 10
assets save what may be secured THU
the sale of the Smith homestead.
The Sheaff Shortage.
Today there was filed the report O.
the German Trust Company, in the
Charles III. sheaff estate. 1t is a pre-
limipiary report and shows that S. f.
Smith is short by $26,047.40 in his
stewardship of that sacred trust fund.
There should be s55,242.40 in assets
in the estate, whereas only s29,295, and
that not all gilt edged, remains.
The document shows that the iirst
shortage dates from July 10, 1881, IS
years ago.
The kaeiser Estate.
The report of Charles N. Vass,
cashier of the German Savings bank,
who is trustee for Matte kaelser
Moody and Ria Kaeiser Andrew, un
der the will of the late James Grant
having succeeded Mr.. Smith in the
handling of the trust fund, has also
been filed with the probate clerk.
The assets of this estate should be,
and were, s36,5Oo.0s. but under the
Smith management they consist OF
$1,000 in apparently good assets, and
s415 in doubtful securities, making
s3.505 left out of the $36,500.03, or
shortage of s33,495.03.
A big shortage already exists in the
Ella w. Parker estate, which has al
ready been declared in the report SUBJ
mitted to the court by A. w. Wander
Veer, trustee.
To recover these shortages many
suits are pending. There are also
three specific charges Of an indictable
character lodged against Mr.. Smith,
who, it is said, may plead guilty to
them The present grand jury will in
vestigate these charges meanwhile.
and as evidence may ask to have re-
sort to the reports filed in the above
