The stock market situation just now
is one that demands much caution.
Stocks have been steadily passing
from strong into weaker hands; and
the big banking interests are not &C
lively committed to the long side
They believe that all the strong fac
tors nthe situation have been amply
discounted by present high prices; all
the good news about increased divi-
dends, etc., having been known to
them for weeks past. Anti-railroad,
antitrust and anti-tariff agitation do
not promote confidence. Moreover, the
situation abroad requires watching.
Russia, threatened by revolution at
home and defeated abroad, is sorely
distressed. The cars life has again
been endangered and Russia's credit
is under the severest sort of strain.
Only by the most extraordinary meas.
ures is that credit supported, and
should a break come all the principal
financial markets of the world, includ.
ing our own, would feel the blow.

1t is understood that Representative
William A. Mcclure will probably not
be able to assume the duties of his
new position as receiver of the land

is necessary in this case that his ap-
pointment be confirmed by the senate
and after that his bond must be given
and approved before he can enter
upon the duties of his Office. This will
enable him to remain in the house and
will not deprive his district for some
