 Report

Report.
 NEW YORK, Sept. Follower tenn perature stimulates retail trade and fall openings are largely attended, but the weather is not cold enough to menace late crops that are maturing most satisfactorily. Certainty of a successful season on the farms con tributes more than any other single factor to the confidence that is felt in all sections of the country. Compara- lively little new grain has been mar keted thus far, which is largely due to the planting of winter wheat and other preparations for next year that are unusually extensive. Manufactur- ing activity is fully maintained, the leading industries having contracts as- surfing little idle machinery during the balance of the year, and 1t is probable that more business will be carried over into 1906 than at the opening of any previous year. The growing dis position to place orders for distant de- livery testify to the we'll nigh universal faith that no setback will be expe- rienced.
 Commercial failures this week in the United States are 240 against 206 last week, 194 the preceding week and 223 the corresponding week last year. Fail ures in Canada number 21 against 34 last week, 29 the preceding week and IS last year. Of failures this week in the United States 60 were in the east, 56 south, SS west and 36 in the Pacific states, and 70 report liabilities of S5,000 or more. Liabilities of com mercial failures reported for Septem- Der to date are $6,125,S21 against $10,- 369,448 for the same period last year.

AND THE DUCKS CAME BACK
Incident Transpires which Conyinces
Henry Hitler that Fowls Have
Some Sense.

Don't tell me that ducks have no sense &"
said Henry Hitler, coming down on a street
car Wednesday morning. Here's the proof
that duck is as intelligent as a dog
A few days before Christmas two live ducks
were received at our house, ostensibly for
the Christmas feast. They were in a box
and were placed on the porch at the back
of the house. No sooner had they arrived
until they began to talk, duck fashion. and
they seemed to be very well satisfied with
their surroundings. The birds were left
outside during the night and the next
morning, when we went to look after them
they had disappeared. Somehow or other
they had gotten out OF the box. The
natural presumption was they were stolen
But j didn't think so. At all events the
box was set aside and the matter was
forgotten until Christmas morning when
we heard a quacking outside, and on going
out where the box had last been placed
there those two ducks were talking 10
themselves and We're glad to get back,
No. we didn't kill them. We are going to
keep them. You see, they suspected they
were going to get it in the neck and so
they just slid out. Being strangers i'm the
city they did not know where to go and
came back TO our house. The funny part OF
il is. those ducks had never been in Omaha
before and how they managed to get back
to our house after being gone a day ar
two, / don't know, unless it was that they
just determined to see if We had the nerve
10 kill them after placing SO much comb

Law Releases Company.

'"The law releases the bond company"
said Mr.. Herdman, land when the city
treasurer turns over the money according
TO law that is all he will have to do. So
far as the school board is concerned 1t
couldn't release the bond company If 1t
wanted to- unless the law required it to.
In this case the charter itself will take
care of the release of the bond of the out
going city treasurer"
The notification of the banks by Treas
urer Fink not to recognize Mr.. Hennings
as city treasurer will, in all probability,
result in having all the city funds on de-
post tied UP for an indefinite period as
the banks probably will not recognize Mr..
Fink city treasurer until the case has
been passed upon by the supreme court. 1t
will mean that no warrants can be paid
until IL is settled by the courts who is the
legal city treasurer.
County Treasurer Fink has filed his bond
for the new term of Office beginning Janu-
airy 4, IN the sum of 10000. When he COM
pletes his bond for Omaha city funds Mr..
Fink will be bonded for close to $l.O0O,000

County Treasurer Fink Thursday or

recognize the signature of a. Hennings as
city treasurer after January 4 This Will
be the first step Mr.. Fink will take in con-
forrnity with the provisions Of the city
charter that no become city treasurer ex-
oficio January T. This action is to antci-
pate a fight on the part OF the present

II was learned Wednesday for sure that

fore Withdrawing from the race for the
republican nomination for mayor and the
energy he has been expanding hustling
votes for the highest Office in the city he
will now concentrate in an effort to hold

Hunch from school Board.

The action Of the school board In decid-
ing not to release Mr.. Hennings bondsmen
gave him a strong bunch to hold onto the
office, as he feared about the time the
rnavoralty race was warming up along
would come the school board to hold him TO
his bond. This would have placed him, he
thinks. in the attitude Of lighting for the
office. while running for another one, so ne
concluded to ct out of the running and let
the courts say whether he will still be city
treasurer after January 4.
The Gathers case will make no difference
in the treasurer matter Mr.. Hennings said.
hut action will have to he brought against
him I'm the nature of a mandamus TO COM
pei him to turn over the office.
In the matter of the school board re-
fusing to release the bondsmen OF Treas
urer Hennings Assistant City Attorney
Herdman is of the opinion that it will play
a very little part in the proceedings at
