HOADLEY IN THE SADDLE
BY W. G. NICHOLAS.

New York, November 25.-(Special)- J. The banking interests which tried to rig the money market to break the price of stocks by enforced liquidation having been defeated in their purpose. seem to have experienced change of heart. Their methods of procedure came under the general definition of "coarse work" They concealment. They went to slug the stock market by marking up money and by wholesale calling of loans. This arbitrary and unnecessary action was followed by a general transfer of loans from New York to other cities and by sudden irl- rush of funds from every quarter. In- ciGentally preparations were set afioat for the importation of large amounts of gold This development compelled the abandon ment of the market rigging scheme of the bear party in command of Standard oil banks and allied institutions, since which time the bulls have had the best of 1t. That there should be substantial re- actions after the sharp recovery which followed the Standard Oil assaults on credits would be only natural. Having established their control of the situation, the leaders of the bull party In the stock market evinced their willingness to let quotations recede somewhat, although not for moment giving up command. There Is apparently no desire to crowd on too much steam at this juncture as there Is still some doubt about the continuance of easy money throughout the remainder of the year,

Shelters and Reading Strong.

Shelters and Reading were the con- spicuously strong and active stocks on the bulge and the local fractions the weak specialties. Anaconda, stock which is seldom traded into any extent enjoyed sensational rise of about $35 share in three or four days. The face value of Anaconda being s35, this advance is equiv alent in dollars to a duplication or tho capital stock of 900 plus $lO000 0,00O The Anaconda mine Is the great asset of Amalgamated, which owns about 40 per cent of the share capital, enough addi- tional to make majority being held by II. IT. Rogers, William Rockefeller and others identified with the control of Amal- gamated. The Rothschilds have a large minority interest and the sensational ad- vance in the stock has been accompanied by rumors that the European bankers have actually wrested control from the Standard oil party This report Is not seriously entertained however, although 1t is within the range of possibility that such coup might be successfully car- ried through. The Rothschilds and Stand ard Oil are arrayed against each other in the oil fields of Europe and Rothschilds money Is known to be behind independent oil enterprises in America Why should they not make a move in the enemies Montana stronghold?

He Didn't Have to Stay.

From Judge.
 l had ben told when I left Ford's mill, on the Poor fork of the Cumberland river, at 11:30, that could get a very good dinner at the Widow Lewis tavern, on Pink branch, at noon. and l rode along easily. enjoying the mountain views. I should have been there on time, but I missed my way, and it was 1 o'clock when I sighted the inn where I expected a good mountain dinner-and expectation was rosy, for l had breakfasted early and scantily and had ridden all morning over rough territory. There was no hotel sign or other indication that the Widow Lewis was anything more than the usual mountain home of the better class-hewed logs half way up, topped out with wealth r-boarding-and I rode up to the gate and gave the customary "hello" tall, sallow woman appeared at the door in response
 Good dayl" I greeted her. ''Is this the Widow Lewis tavern?'
 Yes 1t is." she replied in a manner indicating that she was not pleased at being disturbed in that way.
 Can l get dinner here?'' I asked next. not having been asked to light and come in
 When do you want it?"
 Right away, if 1 can get It.
 Well you can't" she said decisively.
 When can l get itT'
 ''1'omorrer at noon, plumb"
 Good Lord, madam!" exclaimed. Cant I get anything to eat before that?'
 You kin git supper here at o'clock" she said, with definiteness that was painful to my feelings
 But I can't wait that long," I ob- jected.
 You don't have ter, stranger, she re- torted. Your critter aint hitched, is he?"
 I was tempted to say something uncom- plimentary, perhaps ungallant. but did not. because she disappeared into the house, and I had no other recourse but 10 take advantage of the fact that my horse wasn't hitched.

Value of United States Steel.

Anybody with a sheet of paper and the stub of pencil can easily figure that United States Steel as a property and a money earner is worth a great deal more today than 1t was three years ago when preferred shares were selling around par and common at 45 to 30. During the year 1902 the corporation earned S133. .000 900 net on s,3o000O tons of finished product. the net profit per ton approxlmating s16.25. This years output will be close to Il .000- 000 tons of finished product and the mar gin of net profit according to competent authority is more than 1t was in 1902 To be ultra conservative make the profit per ton s15 instead of s1625 and we have s165, ,0oo,000 net earning for the year. Since It's organization four years ago the cor- poration has invested $i35. .000. 900 to s140.- 0oo,ooo In net plant and additional property, most of which has come from earnings
 Its working capital Is now supposed to be in the neighborhood of STE, 900, GOO. More than likely 1t will be considerably In ex- cess of that before another six months have passed. possibly A$l00 0o0,000. It Is the policy of the corporation to make its ac- cumulations secure and to have all its feet firmly on the ground before again en- tering upon the payment of dividends on the common stock, The next time 1t starts along that line there will be small like lihood of suspense of payments on the

Gould Situation,

A leading authority from Wall street makes the wise observation, That there is something the matter with the Gould situation is common knowledge in the street This authority then proceeds to spread before it's clients tabulation showing that twelve of the distnctively Gould issues of bonds and debentures are laggards in a market which is otherwise almost unanimously bullish (New York traction stocks accepted). What the trou- ble Is the commentator says is simple. The Goulds in their supreme selfishness have been going ahead for two or three years with plans of their own which were in entire disregard of the interests of others operating in the same field, and often times In open antagonism of power full combinations. The various antagonized interests finally lined up to fight the Goulds with the result that the Gould credit in every quarter has been serious ly impaired and a doubt has arisen in the minds of investors at home and abroad as to the wisdom of the Gould management and of it's ability to carry out it's ambitious schemes. George Gould does not seem to be a big enough Napoleon of finance to pose successfully in the grandeur of isolation. In the ring with him are other Napoleons of larger stature and of even greater resources. These rival Napoleons have surrounded the Gould en- terprises With an atmosphere of distrust and which ever way the head of the clan turns he Is met with frowning spear points or looks into gapping mouths of hostile cannons He is forced to revise western Maryland and Pittsburg terminal bond is- sues, to modify plans in connection with the main line of the Wabash. to hold up his plans for his Pacific extension and

 ably up against the real thing. Singular

Much Cotton Sold.

Transactions on the New York Cotton exchange on Tuesday reached the sensa- tional total of 100000 bales and between the extremes of prices there was a range of S5.75 bale or total of sS625,000. Not all of this sum was actually won or actual ly bought by the speeulators but it went into tbe account as paper profits and pa- per losses and large part of 1t figured in actual winnings and losings. "Joe' Hoad- ley for instance, claimed to havs been carrying line of 200 600 bales. If he tells the truth his paper winnings on the day were over S1,100,000. He would probably discount those figures for cash. There were many individual instances of win nings or osings of s100,O00 to s200, ,0O0. Theodore Price, one of the wise men who never lose, turned up as bull after the furry was over although he had been talking bearish and selling cotton up to the hour of the receipt of the government report. That rise of s5 bale on Tues- day occurred within a period of four min- utes which did not give much harbor room for operators to turn around in. Those four minutes meant s60, 900, coo on the entire cotton crop figured on paper.

What HoadIeY Did.

Hoadley. he did it. He put cotton up So bale in four minutes and he Is going to uplift the south and confer upon it the blessing of continuous 15-cent cotton. His horsemen are galloping madly through every section of the cotton belt, making living link between the plantations and conveying to the cotton growers instruc- tions from the seat of authority, No Ss Broadway, to "hold your cotton for 15 cents" "Joe" Hoadley himself is in the saddle. Like Pope during those historic Bull Run days, he has established head quarters in the saddle and will be found firmly fixed there as long as he remains in command. He announces that he Is in absolute control of the cotton market in the north and that his lieutenant, Harvie Jordan will look after things in the south. The cotton planters of the south are very fortunate in having a man of Gen. Joe Hoadleys commanding abilities to protect them against the attacks of bear raiders and other malignant enemies. Without Hoadley they would be in a desperate situation. Now everybody south of the Mason and Dixon line can sleep nights In the calm assurance of safety. Few great market leaders can point with pride to such a career as that which has made Joe Hoadley famous. The mag nificent success of his campaign for a merger of southern iron and coal prop critics is still fresh in the minds of the public. His triumph was as complete as that of John Phoenix who by inserting his nose in his opponents mouth and lying upon his back held the vanquished foe firmly on top of him. The equally successful and even more picturesque cor ner in International Power is recalled by recent trials by brokers seeking to re- cover commissions for large amounts from him. The compliments in the cases were cruel enough to charge Hoadley and his side partner Joe Letter with "welching' on that memorable occasion when Power broke more than 100 points in an hour, carrying down scores of speculators and commission houses In the wreck. These the career of tho market Colossus. They are as nothing compared with the mighty achievement which he has planned for the rescue of the south from the curse of cheap cotton. Of one thing the faith full followers of the wonderful Hoadley may rest assured. When, in his opinion the time is ripe for realizing profits on speculative holdings he will be certain to sound a note of warning so that his friends may sell out before he begins to unload. He always holds up q market in order to let his friends out before he starts to realize for his own personal ac- count He would If necessary. hold up the whole world If by so doing he could save confiding friends from loss. It is that self sacrificing trait which has endeared him to so many and which has ,given him such a powerful and unswerving follow ing

POLICE ARE HANDICAPPED
 BY THE REGENT DECISION

Atlanta, November 25.--(Speclal) )-The effects of the recent decision of the su. preme court in the case of Porter vs. the state, under which police officers are practically forbidden to arrest offenders against city ordinances without warrants, unless they see the violation actually conn hitted. are already being felt in many sections of the state.
 It is claimed the effect of the decision will be to seriously interfere with the ad- mnistration of justice. For instance. a man known to be wanted in Cartersville was arrested the other day in Rome, and placed in the station house. The Carters- ville police were preparing to send for him. In the meantime the attention of the chief of police was called to the supreme court decision and under advice of the city attorney the man wanted in Cartersville was released from confinement. He im- mediately skipped across the state line and is now safe in Alabama.
 Instances of this kind are liable to crop up almost anywhere. But 1t Is probable that in the foregoing case the supreme courts decision was too liberally con- strued. If 1t is known that the ends of justice would De ueledteu Dy ldnuIe to make the arrest, and this can be shown, 1t is not thought this decision of the su- preme court would stand in the way. It would, however, prevent the arrest under such circumstances of d citizen of a mu- nicipality who wished only to avoid an arrest that was illegal and not to escape justice.
 The city of Atlanta seems to have anti cipated this decision of the supreme court. An act amending the charter of the city of Atlanta was passed at the last session of the general assembly and approved by the governor August 23, 1905. which re- moves all trouble in this respect. Under this act the Atlanta police are permitted to make arrests upon information without warrants, and the police department has been so advised by City Attorney James l.. Mayson.
 Following Is the section of the act in question by which the Atlanta police are governed in this natter
 Tt shall be their duty to make arrests of any persons violating the ordinances of said city, with or without summons. and also with or without warrants. They shall likewise make arrests of any per- sons who have violated the statutes of said state and their arrests for such violations are hereby authorized, either with or without warrants therefore" Now that the supreme court has passed as it has upon this important question, one to some extent affecting the good government of a municipality. it is prob

Kills Disease Germs.

Contact with Liquozone kills any form of disease germ, because germs are of vegetable origin. Yet to the body Liquo- zone is not only harmless. but helpful in the extreme. That is its main distinction. Common germicides are poisons when taken internally That is why medicine has been so helpless in germ disease. Liquozone is exhilarating. vitalizing, puri- flying; yet no disease germ can exist in it..
 The virtues of Liquozone are derived solely from gases. They are generated from the best producers of oxygen, sul- phur dioxide and other germicidal gases. The process of making requires large apparatus. and from to IA days time. The object is to so fix the gases and to combine them as to carry into the system a powerful tonic-germicide.
 We purchased the American rights to Liquozone after thousands of tests had been made with 1t. Its power had been proved, again and again, In the most dlf- ficult germ diseases. Then we offered to supply the first bottle free in every dis.

be much nearer at hand than is generally supposed. Some very fine bookkeeping has been necessary in order to cover up and hide from the public full knowledge of the real opulence of the surplus from the growing net earnings. A very much larger amount than appears in the re- port might properly have been credited to funds available for dividend distribution The outlook for next year is for larger earnings than in 1905 and if the results are anyway near expectations net earn ings will rise majestically above s175,0O0'- ooO and there will be an abundance to go around among all classes of securities held in the corporation.
