New York, Feb. 25.-The tentative eff
fort to turn the prices upwards which
was in evidence yesterday and the day
before in the stock market, met with
better success to-day. The more favor
able condition came from abroad again,
inst as the adverse factors from that
direction have defeated the previous
efforts to advance prices.
The Improvement was of a negative
character, largely consisting in an
amelioration of the depression abroad
The numerous failures which occurred
Yesterday amongst banking houses al
various points on the continent served
to clear the atmosphere and to create
the impression that the weak spots
were now uncovered. and the mystery
and suspense relieved. The beginning
of the fortnightly settlement in Lon.
don to-day failed to uncover any weak
spots and this again disproved some OF
the fears which have conduced to tht
recent weakness there.
The buying of to-day was attributed
largely to the short account. This as
sumption was based in part upon the
fact that the turn in prices came with.
out any change in the character of the
news or in existing conditions. The
further rise in wheat, and the fall in
cotton were consistent in response t.
the war in Eastern Asia. The average
of the days gains for the most active
stocks was above a point.

Game Reports Conflict, but
Fine Bags Are Reported
in Spots

The indications for a good game year
in Minnesota and North Dakota are
mixed. Chickens in Minnesota. espe-
cially the central and northern tiers of
counties, will be rather scarce COM
pared with former years, but ducks
may be had for the shooting in nearly
all the old haunts.
Reports as to chickens are conflict
ing, and some of the localities where
the birds We're very plenty several
years ago., are practically stripped of
them this year. In others the caution
is. sent out few birds unless you have
a good dog auguring plenty Of tramp
ing and light bags for. all but the lucky
and expert. In still other places, such
as Lake Park, Twin Valley and Fertile
the game is reported plenty and the
sport good.
In North Dakota grouse are plentiful
according to reports, as are other vari-
cites of feathered game The indica-
tons for ducks are generally good and
tine bags are reported from Grants
burg, Starbuck and the Cormorants, as
well as from nearly every other point
from which advices have been had,
with the exception of Willard.

SUGGESTS MORE TROOPS
FOR PACIFIC COAST
Gen. Macarthur Says This Is Required
by the Rapid Progress of Events

d
WASHINGTON d. c., Sept. e.7tieH.
Arthur Macarthur has made a report
to the war department from the Pacific
division, which embraces the Depart
ments of California and Columbia. He
says the concentration of political and
economical interests in the Pacific
ocean has enormously magnified the
continent and the continued rapid
progress of events suggests the expe-
diency of an early enlargement of mill
itary facilities to meet the growing
necessities of the Pacific coast.
He recommends that full regiment
of infantry >be stationed in the vicinity
of Los Angeles, Cal, and a post for a
full regiment of cavalry at a suitable
site in the Willamette valley in Oregon.
This last recommendation is made with
view to full regiment of cavalry
being divided between the Preside and
Ord barracks and another regi-
ment of cavalry at the post above rec
commended, making two full cavalry
regiments for the Pacific coast.
Gen. Macarthur suggests that legis-
lative authority be obtained to classify
as mounted officers all captains of in
fantry and artillery, not now in the
mounted category. He says that the
eXigencies of modern field work require
such duties from a captain Of infantry
that he cannot possibly discharge them
if he has to drag his body through the
eXhausting strain of a long march, as
after such strain he is physically in
capable of supervising the attack for
nations in extended order for serv-
ice company of 100 men or more. There
fore precisely at the moment his pro-
fessional skill is most needed he is least
effective. This arrangement would
mean a total increase in pay for the
$40 officers affected of about $9S,000.

Princess Values Her Freedoy,

VIENNA, Sept. "a lawyer who is in
the confidence of Lieut.. Count Mattasisch-
Keglevich, and who has just returned
from visiting the Princess Louise of CO.
burg. declines to reveal the whereabouts
of the princess. He gives a statement
which he says she made to him, accord
ing to which throughout her immuremeflt
she expected to be rescued by the court.
The princess said:
Now happily I am free and shall use
my liberty SO that can remain free My
next important task will be to take legal
steps to have my guardianship set aside.
/ shall ask the Austrian court chamber
lain's department to grant me new
medical examination, and can bring

The lawyer said that the princess made
this statement in the presence of Lieut..
Count Mattasisch- Keglevich, adding that
'the friendship between the count and
the princess had always been idealistfc. .
He said she could scarcely return to her
husband, but would fight any efforts
which might be made to compel her to
return to an asylum.
