 The United States Steel stocks were the feature of the whole market, and other tention given to them. The character of the market can not be better indicated than by a simple list of stocks of the industrial combinations and corporations which rose from 1 to 3 points in the course of the days trading.

Tennessee Coal and Iron, Sloss- Sheffield United States Cast Iroh Pipe stocks. vir- ginia Coal and Coke, Cotton Oil, Sugar, American Ice. Corn Products International Paper. Associated MerchaDts. Union Bag and Paper and American Tobacco. There were many other miscellaneous specialties not coming so clearly within the definition Of industrials securities
 None of these were subjects of any news of special application to them. The buying was avowedly based on the assumption that the revival and improvement in the country have not yet had adequate expression in the securities market. that the passing of the speculation in stocks and that the specu- lative preference will now turn to indus trials on account of the length to which the rise in railroad stocks lnas already gone.

He then came back to Iowa, passed the

years ago. His success has been con-

he filled the position with credit to

EoRsEE A NEW COMBINE.

At beginning Of telephone service the
big telegraph companies recognized the
telephone as a coming competitor for
their business. Instructions were Civ
en- managers Of the smaller country
offices that no telephones were to be
installed in the telegraph offices either
at the expense Of the company or of the
managers. No use was to be made of
telephones in connection with the tele-
graph. The installation of telephones
in business; houses and the. possibili-
ties offered by long distance phones.
soon forced a change In the policy. The
telegraph offices put in phones and
these phones brought business. The
other day one Of the leading telegraph
companies filed a notice at Albany, N.
Y, of an extension of purposes"
which Is interpreted by stock speculat-
ors as the beginning Of campaign
looking to an absorption of telephone
interests and lines by the telegraph
companies The SurmlSe was DaSed
upon the usefulness of local lines as
telegraph adjuncts and the fact that
within the past few months expert
ments have shown conclusively that a
single circuit Is available for use sim
ultaneous!y as telegraph and tele-
phone line. For instance press dis
patches may be sent by telegraph be-
tween New York and Chicago over a
wire that is in use at the same time
as long distance telephone circuit.
1t is to be hoped that the consolida-
ton looked for by Wall Street will not
take place. AS matters stand the COM
petition results in the rendition of
better and quicker service by both tele-
phone ana telegraph. Monopolization

Tama, Nov 26.-Under the headlines
of Coal Mining in Tama" the News
of that place says that the officials Of
the G. & N. w. Railway Company
claim to have unearthed an extensive
system of coal mining right in the
heart of Tama. Not an underground
system, however. The company claim
that for years their coal at Tama has
checked up short, and that the short
age was entirely too great to be ac-
counted for by accidental loss from
slack being left in cars or from occa-
sional throwing off of Jumps in the
yards and the carrying away of such
Jumps by women and children. Some
time since the company detectives We're
| put to work on the case and they claim
to have unearthed systematic prac-
tiee Of taking the company's coal and
distributing it among railroad employ
es and others about town. If the ru-
nnors afioat have any foundation, some
| three hundred tons Of coal have been
taken in the last year and a large
number Of railroad employees are i'm
| plicated. If the stories are true the
practice has been to leave from few
| hundred pounds to couple of tons of
coal in the cars when unloading at the
chutes and then have a teamster haul
the coal to the bins of those designated
to receive it. The matter has caused
no little comment on the streets, and
while the News claims no specific
knowledge in the matter we give the
rumor for what it is worth.
The same condition is said to exist
f1on yycta
and the prospects are there will be
"A shaking up of railway employees in
the near future. This may be novel
way of fighting the coal trust, but we
are afraid it will prove expensive to
the fighter.
From a coal dealer in Tama, who
claims so extensively has this business
been carried on that 1T really has in
terfered with his regular sales, the
writer learns that so openly was this
kind of work carried on that teamsters
offered and sold good coal at 81 per
load" Evidently such loads were of
| fair size, for report has 1T one man
has - tons of good coal in his shed,
and in reply to the railroad company's
detective question, where he got 1T,
said: TITS none of your damn bust
ness" It's a question whether any
prosecutions will follow, for a free
| American citizen does not have to tell
where he buys his coal or what he paid
for 1T, but If the railroad company
should happen to replevin a mans
winter supply of good coal, would he
have prove it was regularly boughten
and paid for? Again, the Identification
of railroad company's coal will be
somewhat of a difficult task. At this
writing no legal steps have been ta-
ken by the railroad company, nor have
any of their employees been discharged
