STEEL WAS THE FEATURE

New York, Oct. S.-The stock market
made strong demonstration to close
the week and dissipated the reaction
airy appearance which had followed the
weeks opening strength. The features
today. were United States Steel pre-
ferred and the Southwesterns. The
movement in the former was apparent
lynn connection witk the sanguine fore
casts by persons having official connec-
lions with the trade The rise i'm the
SouthweSterns was attributed TO the
increasing estimates of the corn and
cotton yields which find currency in
financial circles. Union Pacific show
ing OF net earnings for August was
helpful TO that stock. The market was
sluggish and rather irregular until the
appearance of the bank statement in
apprehension of what its effect would
be and prices wavered about the time
IT appeared. but the final dealings
brought active buying and the market
closed strong and active Revised es-
Inmates were in circulation this morn
ing which prepared sentiment for the
heavier decline in cash reserves than
was indicated by tie known move
ments of currency. The increase in
loans. although small served to dis
cOuntenance the view of heavy market
liquidation during the week. The enOr-
nous credit balances of over ST., 00O. 600
at the clearing house today of one
of the great banks, renewed the sur
misses of great transactions among the
financial field The weekly mercantile
reviews were cheerful to a degree that
went far to corroborate the growing
belief in substantial business revival
and the expansion of the weeks bank
clearingS the country over was addi-
tiOnal for this view. The reduction in
surplus reserves TO So, 900 brings

FAILURE TO TURN SWITCH RE-
SUITS IN COLLISION.
TWO PASSENGERS KILLED
Nine at Least Injured in Crash of
Trains in Michigan on the Pere
Marquette Road-Responsibi for
the Accident not Yet Fixed-Engine
Runs Into Parlor Car.

Detroit, Mich, Nov. 1.-Two pas
sengers were killed and at least nine
others injured in a rearend collision
last night at Elmdale, on the Pere Mar
quette railroad. The dead are:
M. Simons, New York city.
J. l.. Strelitskey, Chicago.
The seriously injured are:
r. G. Savoye, Grand Rapids Mich.
G. |. Pickett, Boston.
Charles, Cuba, New York.
The collision occurred at Elmdale
junction. Both trains were east bound,
No. for Detroit, No. "a for Saginaw.
The latter train had preceded the De-
troit train out of Grand Rapids by
few minutes and was standing on a
''Y'' at Elmda1e, where the Saginaw di-
vision branches off from the Detroit di-
vision. Through some mistake the
switch was not turned behind the Sag
NAV train and the Detroit train also
ran upon the "Y." The engine of the
Detroit train crashed into the rear of
the parlor car on the other train. No
explanation has been made as to where
the responsibility lies for the failure
to throw the switch behind the Sagi-
nav train.

WHO OWNS OUR RAILROADS?

President Fish of the Illinois Central
has for the second time rendered a
public service by stating in his report
how that railroad is owned.
A majority of the stock is in hold
ings of less than 500 shares each. One
fifth is in fractions" of less than a
hundred shares. One-sixth is owned
in the twelve states through which the
lines run. But the most significant
fact is that, where ten years ago a. ma
jority was owned abroad, more than
three-fourths of it's stock is now held
in America. A similar study of .othe
lines might reveal very different pro
portions of ownership. Yet this reve-
lation OF the rate at which American
securities are coming home" forbids
all anxiety when we cannot send over
as much wheat as formerly to pay our
annual interest bill, and explains why
in spite of the setback of the past two
years, such issues as the new Mexican
loan can be "foated" so successfully
from New York.

DESTROYER WITH TOR
PEDO ON STEAM LAUNCH.
THE HERO OF PORT ARTHUR
Petty Officer Volunteers for Audaci-
Gus Work in Dead of Night, Avoids
Enemy's Searchlights and De-
stroys a Vessel and Without Being
Discovered Returns to Fort.

Chefoo, Nov. 1.-THE Port Arthur
copies of which were brought to Che
foo yesterday morning by the Russian
torpedoboat destroyer Bastoropny,
prints brief details of daring exploit
which resulted in the sinking of a
four-funnelled Japanese torpedoboat
destroyer. The Japanese torperO-
boats and one destroyer were en-
gagged in removing mines, mostly
thrown from Tache bay November 80.
Midshipman Dimitrieff conceived the
idea that he could torpedo the Japan
csc boats under cover of darkness, as
the latter were very busy and enjoy
ing a fancied security 1t was the
very audacity of the plan, the Novi-
krai says, that made it successful.
Securing a steam launch from the bat
tieship Retvisan, one carrying tor
pedo tube, and accompanied by half a
dozen volunteers, Dimitrieff in dense
darkness slipped out of the harbor
and succeeded in evading the Japan
csc searchlights.
Circling around the Japanese boats,
with the launch moving at top speed,
the midshipman came within striking
distance from the seward side and
launched his projectile. 1t sped
through to the destroyer. There was
a sudden explosion and the destroyer
sank Immediately. The launch then
sped towards the harbor. but was not
pursued, the Japanese evidently hav-
ing not observed the launch and think
ing the destroyer had struck one Of
their own mines. Dimitrieff is the
hero of the day at Port Arthur, ac-
cording to the paper.

Official returns have been received
from comparatively few of the coUn-
ties of the state, some having filed
their tabulated figures with Secretary
of State Houser. The official figures
tend to increase the plurality for Gov
ernor La Toilette. On the basis OF
the last reliable schedule of returns,
with an estimate of the change that
will be effected by the official return,
it is concluded that the plurality for
Governor La Toilette will approach
$4,000.
Some of the corrections made by
the official returns are as follows:
Adams county was scheduled unoffi
cially as giving La Toilette plurality
OF 900. The Official returns brought
it up to 957 Official returns from
bayfield, county bring the governors
plurality UP from 800 to 2,Ol3 Cal
umet county was reported as giving
plurality OF 154 for Peck, but official
returns brought the figure down to
1873. Dunn countys La Toilette plu-
rality was raised by the official re-
turns from 1856 to 1861 and Monroe
from 419 to $685. Walworth county
was unofficially scheduled as carried
by Peck by plurality of 293, but the
official returns place it in rne La Fol
lette counties by plurality of .298.
The La Toilette plurality in Waukesha
county is raised by the official returns
from 80 to Az.

ANIMAL GREW IN STOMACH.
Little Iowa Girl Dies From Terrible
Shock.

Shock.
Des Moines, Iowa, Nov. ia hid
eous animal, covered with hair, was
taken alive from the stomach of Stella
Weston, a 15-year-old Des Moines girl,
by DR.. J. H. Drake, a prominent phys1-
clan, Wednesday night. The animal
was as large as half grown cat and
weighed three pounds. After its re-
moval the child's stomach collapsed
with report like the explosion of a
bicycle tire and the shock put stop
to the heart action. The little girt
died from the shock.
For weeks the girl had complained
of almost constant hunger. She
could eat a whole loaf of bread at a
time, and within a few minutes would
cry for meat. Her appetite was the
marvel of the neighborhood. Yet
she did not take on flesh. On the
contrary, her little body grew thinner
week after week, until DR.. Drake was
called in to take desperate measures
to check the progress of the unknown
disease.
The case is without a parallel in
medical annals, SO far as the leading
physicians and surgeons of Des
Moines are able to determine. The
child had swallowed a great deal of
her own hair. She was given to chew
ing her hair during sleep, and took
enormous particles of it into her
stomach.

of contemporary gun builders,l COL
Ingalls, and the officers with him as
sert that this six-inch gun will throw

construction, with pOwder-chamber

hurl 6OO-pound projectile a distance
Of fifty-nine miles. Increasing this
ratio, and sixteen-inch gun would have

The best place in the state to hunt
deer this season is Sawyer county.
More successful deer hunters are ship
ping their game from that county than
from any other county IN the state. In
fact Sawyer county is several times as
productive of the shipping tags this
year than the other counties.

Much Need of Snow.
There were killed in Wisconsin in
the open season of 1903 about 5000
deer. Reports from the deer counties
this year are to the effect that the
game is more plentiful than it was a
year ago, but that owing to the alb
sence of snow in the woods it is harder
to get the game. Unless good fall of
snow comes within the remaining days
of the hunting season less deer will be
