SPECULATION PACE IN STOCKS HALTS Southern Iron Group Shows
 Most Buovancy ' RAIL ROAD LIST IS NARROW General List Was Not Free From Evil denoe of Depression and Some
 Violent Fluctuations Were Recorded.
' RAIL ROAD LIST IS NARROW

New York November 29.-The pace or speculation was halted in today's stock market, partly as a general revulsion from the volatile of the last few days in spe- cial stocks, and partly from narrowing of the resources in the money market which exercised some constraint on specu- lative activity The effect of the excess elve buoyancy was most pronounced in the southern iron group, and some other metal industrials, the railroad list nov ing but narrowly. The list was also slightly affected as compared with the violent reactions in the industrials, AS it has been for several days past by their advances.
 It might also be said that holders of standard securities showed sense of re- lief at the check of the extravagant rushing up of prices amongst the indus trials The general list was not free from evidence of depression. however, and vio- lent fluctuations continued to character ize the industrial department. Lead, es- pecially. made further advance of 61k during the continuation of its course for several days past, and while 1t was not free from the reactionary effect of the general movement. 1t persisted in its up- ward course. Tennessee coal and Sloss- Sheffield, on the other hand, slumped in way as to cause apprehension of dis astrous consequences to speculative hold CTS in the stock. There was a fear that the contest in the open market, if there was one, had been completed by the ac- quisition of a majority of the holdings in Tennessee coal and that the market for the majority of the stock would be allowed to take care of itself. The persis- tent heaviness of the United States steel stocks had it's effect in other iron and steel industrials. in spite of the rumor in- dustrially circulated that the control of the independent companies is sought on behalf of that corporation. The rumors regarding the group continued. and the shares showed considerable resiliency. The

 Opinion last night favored a demoraiized Liverpool this morning
 The opening there was weak at s points decline. but then followed rapid ini- provement freaching points gain over yesterdays close
 At the opening time of our markets American and continental buying on Miss Giles estimate of 10.1s1.000 against her previous estimate of 1032OO00 was ca bled as reason for the sudden change
 Our market opened 9 to 10 points higher but there was a world of realizing bv me country through wire houses which swamped the professional opposition and caused loss of points in short time
 While Europe seems to look more kindly on the small crop estimates. fear that the government might come larger than expected. owing to cotton having been making with the favorable weather since October. induces many on our side to sell.
 The fierce cold wave that is rapidly moving south will, however, settle all growth by Friday. Trading continued narrow today, the market evening up well From New York we hear that room traders are short and liable to cover dur ing the day
 No spot business here today and none likely before bureau day. Whole of Europe seems 10 be waiting for the government estimate. Country offers a little; just as with futures. some holders take a selling chance on tho bureau. F.

John C. Bridget, who was arrested at a
late hour Sunday night In connection with
the hre Saturday evening at the residence
occupied by him and his family on West
broadway, is being held at the city jail
pending investigation. While no formal
charge has yet been filed against him, he
Is suspected of having set fire to the dwell
ing in order to obtain the $1,000 insurance
which he had on his furniture and per-
sonal effects
One of the boxes removed from the house
Just prior to the IRE has been examined
by the police and was found TO be packed
with dishes, miscellaneous household uten-
sils and clothing. Both Bridget and wife
assert that the box was packed prepara-
tory to the familys going camping at Lake
Manawa. So far the police have been I'M
able 70 secure any trace Of the large chest
which was seen in Bridgets wagon at the
outset OF the fire and which disappeared
while the nremen were working on the
flames. Bridget and his wife deny any
knowledge OF the chest, but Chief Nichol-
son and other members of the fire depart
nlent say they saw IL when they first
reached the house, but missed it after they
got the flames under control. Mrs. Bird
get is a dressmRker and 1t Is supposed that
the box contained silks laces and other
dress materials belonging TO her custom
ers.
Neighbors have informed the authori-
ties that they saw Bridget removing goods
from the house during Saturday afternoon,
also that they saw him about the house
shortly before the fre and they dispute his
statement that he was at Lake Manawa.

TROUBLE OVER DITCH OVERCOME
Harrison County Board Serves Re-
= auired Notices,


That there will be no further difficulty
in establishing the Pottawattamie-Harr
county drainage bitches when the boards
of supervisors of the two counties meet in
Joint session in this city on August 1 was
the opinion expressed last evening by Henry
c. Brandes chairman of the Pottawatta-
ME county board Mr.. Brandes spent yes
terday at Missouri Valley looking into the
matter He found that the Harrison county
people had been hard at work and had mat
ters now in such shape that there would be
little or no legal obstacle to the establish
ment of the drainage district
At the last joint meeting Of the boards
complaint was made that all. of the per-
sons interested in the proposed bitches
had not been served with the required no
tices, this being alleged to be especially
the case In Harrison county, On this ac-
count the boards decided TO postpone action
until August 1 so that in the meantime
these notices could be served. Mr.. Brandes
was given 10 understand yesterday in Mis-
souri, Valley that all the requirements had
now been carried out and all the proper no
tices served AS far as is known every in
terested person in Pottawattamie county
has been served with the proper notices
and now that the supreme court has up
held the drainage law, II is believed there
will be no further hitch in the proceedings,
although II is probable that there will be
some litigation over the amount OF damages
allowed some of the property owners
through whose lands the bitches will be
constructed.
