1t is recalled that the charter of the
United States Steel Corporation gives 1t
the authority TO purchase and retire its
own securities. A prominent board men,
ber writing for one of the leading COM
mission houses, speculates on the subject
as follows; For some time past il has
been maintained by the advocates Of
higher prices that Steel preferred was
being steadily sold by the bears and
that the decline in prices was due TO
their operations and not to any unfa-
Vorable features in the steel trade. The
outpouring of Steel common today COM
pletely upset this theory. 1t is absurd
10 think for q moment that anVone
would have the temerity to sell Steel
common short at these prices. Further
1t Is we'll known that whereas some two
years ago commission houses in VIII
street were carrying heavy lines of Steel
common, at present the Steel common
held by these houses has been reduced
to almost insignificant proportions 1t
Is, therefore, possible to arrive at but
one conclusion, and that is that irnpor-
tant interests who are in a position to
have accurate knowledge of the affairs
OF the Steel corporation, have been SELL
ing their holdings of Steel common on
account OF the extremely unfaVorable
outlook that confronts the company
Some think it would be more interest
ing TO know who is buying Steel COM
mon than to know WHO is selling II
Every share that is sold is also bought
One theory is that a big bear crowd in
the preferred has been depressing the
common in order to facilitate covering
or short contracts IN the former
Wall Street Is considerably interested
over report that a large bond issue
IS contemplated by the Consolidated Gas
Company. The amount of Bonds in
contemplation is stated to be from $40.
10000 TO $40, 900 900, but the former figure
Is more generally accepted. 1t is SAID
in quarter close to the management
OF the company that the bond issue has
not got beyond the realm of discussion
as yeti but that it will probably come
before the next meeting of the dIrec-
tors for action. The understanding Is
that the bonds will carry 4 per cent
and Will be convertible into stock at the
end OF two years. The proceeds it is
said, viii be used in part fer the retire>
ment OF existing issues. and in part for
betterments

RIOT IN MOSCOW.
Revolutionary Demonstration in
Which 5000 People Participated
Some Fatalities.

Moscow, Dec. 9th city was the
seen" of a revolutionary Demonstration
from noon until nearly evening. Probably
5000 peop.e participated. Fortunately the
agitators did not succeed in drawing the
Workingmen from the factories into The
disturbances and after many collisions,
the police firing blank volirys and charg-
ing with their sabers, the crowds were
finally dispersed. Many were wounded
and more were arrested. AS far as known
none of the rioters was Killed. One 10
licemen is reported fatally injured. Many
on both sides We're roughly handled.
The authorities knew in advance that
the trouble was impending. and many
houses along Tvcrskaia street were spe-
cially guarded and extra policemen were
on duty in the streets. Several squadrons
of mounted gen]darIucrie were concealed
i'll the court yards of houses ready for an
emergency.
The crowds began to collect at midday
in TNclskaia street, young men and young
women mixing with the general public.
The thoroughlarc was soon congestcd
with a mass of humanity who convened
On Strastiana square. where 5000 persons
assembled, many armed with clubs ana
carrying flags. Tho crowd moved towards
the palace of Grand Duke Scrgius, the
governor general of Moscow. Thc police
attempted to block the street. WhCrCupon
tho trouble began III earnest. The crowd
broke through the Gordon and one police
man was knocked down, and it is thought
fatally hurt.
Battalions of police were brought up
at double quick to reinforce their COM
radcs. Sticks and stones We're freely
used by the mob, which threatened tG
again break through the Gordon. Tho po-
lice, under orders Of their chief, fired
blank volleys and mounted men charged,
using the fiat OF their swords. The mot
fought stubbornIy, but finally broke 3nC
sought shelter in the side streets. where
the police again were severely pressed, as
the detaChmcnts placed at the opening
of these streets to keep people out Of
TVcrSkaia street were caught between the
bowling mob on one side and curious
spectators on the other. Many of the
demonstrators fought through the Gordon
of police in the street, waving flags ant
singing. A crowd Of 100 collected In from
of the thcater, where revolutionary mas!
were hoistcd Anids shouts of Long live
freedom"
The police were not prepared at this
point, and the crowd. increasing IL vol
ume, moved from the square to Ncslin%
street and Koomincsi bridge, the chic
street of Moscow, where tn" police IN"
them. Another stubborn fight cnSucd
cnding as the first had GoTe. with three
blank volleys and sabcr charges.
The disturbances continued At lso!atet
points throughout the afternoon. Mann
shops were turned into hospitals. Wh"rt
the wounds OF rioters ana III" lo!iSh
We're dressed.
The workmcn held aloof from TN" dem
o~nstration, employers having giVc1
them warning that any one participating
would be dismissed. A few oniooker'
were hurt. .

THE JAPs MOVING FORWARD.
A Big Battle Is Believed to Be Near at
Shakhe River.

London, Dec. IA forward move
meut OF the japanese right wing has
been reported in today's dispatches
from Toxic, and it is believed that this
f~oreshadows ii general engagement, as
sufficient time las now elapsed since
the success of General Nogi's operations
at Port Arthur to make it reasonably
certain that the Japanese would cap
ture the fortress before very long, to
permit of reinforcements from Nogi's
army to have reached Field Marshal
Oyana. 1t is generally believed that
the lack of men is all that kept the lat
ter from giving battle during the last
month or SO, when the aggreSsiveness
Of the Russians became so threatening
that it was believed q battle could not
be avoided.
According to a St. Petersburg report.
the provisioning of his present army
has become Il serious problem with
kuropatkin and keeping his in view,
it is difficult to see how the Russians
can make good their boast of being able
to put IN army of 800, 900 in the field be-
fore the end OF the year. Unless the ST.
berian railroad could be double-tracked
by that time It is extremely improbable
that the Russians will be able to ma
terially add TO their present force and
If Oyama is prepared, as he is believed
to be, to make a general attack, it is
the belief of military experts that he
has every chance of success.

in the little house ana looked into th&
ire. The hook where Elizabeth's jacket,
had hung was empty. Her little over
SHOES were gone, too. He was acutely
conscious of this and dared not turn hist
eyes in that direction. Suddenly he bowed
soul that he was, there had come upon
him tonight an utter heart-sickness and
despair.
Il am a failure" he told himself bitter
ly, " a failure. I have failed with the
farm: / have failed with Elizabeth. I
thought l could make up to her for this
things she would lose. I thought my Iovo
would be enough. But it was not enough.
We will leave the farm. Perhaps l shall
succeed after a fashion. Perhaps Eliza
beth will be happy again. But 1 shall
know 1t Is not I who have done 1t. I shall
see myself for what 1 am, a CHASTITY fall
ure."
Tears fell upon his tanned cheeks-not
the quick bright tears of childhood, but
the awful tears of manhood, that start In
the deeps of the heart and come by q
slow. burning pathway to the eyes.
Then Elizabeth came.
Her cheeks glowed with the cold; her
eyes were two dazzling love-lights. She
fell upon him with a divine ferocity, she
submerged him in her arms, she over
whelmed him with kisses.
Oh, Robert" she cried, IT couldn't go!
1t was no use to try. l couldn't endure
Christmas without you. I should die! Z
don't want to go to Ind;ana! l only want
to stay With You. And. of course. we'll
try Dakota a little longer-forever. If you
like. l shall never hate it again. Nothing
matters blu your man." she ended. with a
sobbing laugh.
He did not understand as yet. He did
not try, He only felt that he had capped
from hell TO heaven. He held his aEgeE
OF deliverance fast, and hoped his heart
wouldn't burst with SO much joy.
Afterward, when they were a little
caimer, he asked her anxiously:
But are you quite, quite sure YOU
won't regret that You didn't so home?'
She laughed softly, and nestled closer
within his arms.
