eighth grades. IL is during this period
that pupils are beginning to think about
what they shall do in life. Many of
them are sure to feel that there are
now but few opportunities for those
who have to make their own way, and
that il is impossible to succeed with
out assistance. In order to stimulate
such pupils this volume has been pre-
pared. 1t contains sketches of the lives
of many famous Americans who
achieved success in the face of what
are generally called adverse condi-
tons. Abraham Lincoln, Louisa AL
colt. Cornelius Vanderbilt, Mary Lyon,
Peter Cooper and Horace Greeley are
among those taken as examples.

at least another year. There is no
end Of evidence in support of this
proposition. New York is full of South
ern visitors, and they are all in a
cheerful mood and happy in a faith
of the continued development Of that
great region. They have money in
abundance, and they are buying things.
The South is to-day the most liberal
and generous customer the Eastern
merchants have on their lists.

Money Market Hardening.

The money market is visibly harden
ing. There is an increasing demand
for surplus funds which is construed
as healthful symptom. A feature not
so healthy is found in the tendency
to pile up more money by borrowing
abroad through the medium of sales
of long bills. We are again running
in debt to Europe. This borrowed
money may and probably will be in
time liquidated by cotton and grain
shipments but it is considered strange
under the circumstances that this
country should become a borrower
when for months call money has ruled
at 1 per cent. and six and eight months
money was drug at 3h to per cent.
Call money is still very cheap, but
time funds are held more firmly than
at any time for six or eight months.
There is evidently going to be a stiff
demand for all the funds that can be
spared for crop moving purposes. The
fact is disclosed that Western banks
are not so overlooking with cash as
represented. They carried large bal
ances in the East and are drawing
thereon instead of on the local surplus
1t would not be surprising, therefore,
after all If mid-winter should not see
the usual squeeze in the New York
money market. Bankers are quietly
encouraging this theory without seek
ing to infuse alarm or shake conf
dence.

BULL CAMPAIGN IN
STOCKS WAS OVERCOME
Was SignaIized by Rank Manipulation Through
Pools and Cliques.
BY w. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, Sept. 24.-Profit-taking on
an immense scale was followed by the
precipitate selling out of speculative
lines taken on at high price ranges,
the combined effort giving to the stock
market an appearance of ragged weak
ness, almost sickening at times. Some
of the leaders conspicuous for the past
several weeks in strength and activity
fell heavily. losing many points in a
very few days. The situation has since
improved somewhat under good lead
ership.
Expert market opinion is almost a
unit to the effect that the bull cam
paign in stocks was over-done. The
rise in prices extending through a
period of about three months was Is
to 90 points, in some cases being even
more than the outside limit named. In
many cases the ground lost during the
two years of liquidation was more
than half regained, and the improve
ment may be said to have been very
general ana evenly distributed. There
were exceptions, of course, chiefly in
the industrial list, but even there adj
vances were sharp and important, no
tably in Shelters, Sugar Amalgamated
Copper and United States Steel.
1t was in such stocks, however, as
Union Pacific, Southern Pacific, st.
Paul, Atchison, Illinois Central,
Louisville and Nashville, Southern,
Reading, Rock Island, Erie and Penn
sylvania that the action was conspic-
uously and consistently upward
throughout almost the entire bull
period of approximately 100 days.
Pools and CIiques Active.
The advance was signalized by rank
manipulation undertaken and success
fully carried through by powerful pools
and cliques. Especially active in this
artificial stimulation were the groups
dominated by the Kuhn, Loeb-Harri-
man interests, William Rockefeller,
John w. Gates and later by the Nor
gan party. The New York traction
stocks, under the guiding and helpful
hands of Thomas ]. Ryan, August
Belmont and their associates, were
whooped up at great rate and lively
speculation was induced therein.
As the market approached top II was
held by main strength, and many OF
the large inside interests unloaded at
handsome profits. II was about that
time that the public began TO take a
large interest IN the game. and as
usual II got in just at the proper time
10 hold the bag. which II is now doing
with many expressions OF grief and
dissatisfaction. The market developed

Unfavorable reports from the corn
areas contributed largely to the stock
market reaction. Expert reports on
corn are very generally discredited,
uneasiness because of the fact that
they are sent out by persons who were
moderately correct in their appraiSe-
ment of the damage to spring wheat.
Mr.. James J. Hill of the Great North
ern has actively sponsored many of
these calamitous crop reports and is
in evidence with earnest Endorsements
of the latest proclamations of corn
killing. Very little corn is raised in
Mr. Hills territory, yet he comes gaily
to the front with a mighty store of
information on the subject. Mr.. Hill
is rapidly establishing a reputation as
a prophet of evil. He is becoming a
veritable jeremiah with his lamenta-
lions and woeful cries. His troubles
in connection with Northern Securi-
ties seem to have given him bad
case of mental jaundice. He sees
everything through dark colored
glasses. To Mr.. Hill this is becoming
demnition gloomy world.
The Steel Securities Market.
Trade and commercial reports are
not quite up to expectations. In iron
and steel quarters the feeling is far
from optimistic, and at last the sense
of Encouragement finds reflection in
the steel stock share market. For
some unaccountable reason heavy in
terests persistently bought Steel Sc
curities and marked the preference
shares up nearly SIS a share, at the
same time the common stock moving
81 to IS a share in the same direction.
For several days these stock steadily
declined, and the fact is now revealed
that there was important distribution
of speculative lines last week and the
week before followed by heavy short

trade and buyers are supposed to be
everywhere getting concessions, a
feature well calculated to produce
widespread Generalization.

The announcement that Ada Rehan
is in America again tends somewhat
to thrill the old-time theatergoer, and
SO does the further announcement
that her uncle. Oliver Doud Bryon, Is
to be a member of her company this
year.
And oliver Doud Bryonl Who
among the aforesaid old-timers will
ever forget his oft repeated phrase in
Across the Continent" "And
the Villain still pursued herl"
1t was while she was still
in his care, so to speak, that
Miss Rehan received the name which
she has been known through nearly
all her stage career. Born Crehan,
christened Ada. she was billed
through the mistake Of the printer as
Ada c. Rehan. Both she and her
friends were indignant, but there was
no time to print new bills, and up
they went. AS Ada c. Rehan" she
made such a hit and the name sound
ed so much better than Crehan that
the &C. was henceforth eliminated. The
laundering printer did her an immense
favor when he christened her Ada Re-
han, by mistake, for there's much in a
name in the theatrical world
