right here it is only proper to say
that this company had been un-
failing in its attention to the COM
fort OF the party, at every important
stop representatives making personal
inquiries into the conduct of the
porters and the chief, who are four
as good servants as could have been
furnished us.
On emerging from the Piedmont
region of Indiana, we came SHINING
through the marvelously fertile
prairie section of that state, and
crossed into Illinois, still on the
splendid Southern system, which is
rapidly bringing into the South a
rolling stock not to be surpassed
anywhere in the world.
From the time we arose in the
morning until we crossed the Miss
issippi and rolled in St. Louis at
about 6 o'clock, the number and
luXuriancc of the corn fields aroused
an ever growing wonder among
those OF us who had never seen be-
fore and had failed utterly to realize
the extent OF the country devoted
to the culture of this important
cereal. 1t was corn, corn, corn,
and corn again, until we were
forced to believe that the price of
corn will drop almost to nothing,
the harvest promises to be so abun-
dant, This is a country of small
farms, small houses and large barns,
and one looks in vain to see where
the servants live, until one reaches
the conclusion that in this place
every man is his own valet.
The rest at st. Louis was very
grateful to us, dusty, and travel
worn as we were, and in the de-
tcrmincd expressions on the faces
OF all the party could be read the
sentiment that they did not care
how muddy st. Louis water was
said to be, they were going to-
well, 1T is enough to say that they
did, and then many RECALLED them |
selves with the porter-housc steaks !,
for which that city is famous; and |
when we rcasscmblcd at 10 o'clock |
that night to start across the great !
state of Missouri, satisfaction was
writ large on every face.
We were now travelling over the |
Rock Island system, whose officials
ire noted for their courtesy and
'ag"rncss to please the travelling
public, and please us they did, for
while the trip was made entirely
Turing the night, still our slumbers
we're cradclcd by a roadbcd that is
in its smoothness.

visited the great packing houses Of
Armour Il Co., which slaughtcrs
4 1000 head of cattle, 5000 sheep
and $4,000 hogs in single day,
employing over 5000 persons. The
system of the whole thing is wonder
full, and one is lost in admiration
OF the master minds that could con-
ccivc and put into execution an or
ganism of such extent and yet of
such dclicacy in the harmonizing
OF all it's parts. Glue factories,
fertilizer factories, soap factories,
all under one roof attend to it that

one that ought not to be missed,
but one visit is enough.
The state line between Missouri
and Kansas divides this into twin
cities, and well the violators of the
law realize the advantage of this in
their shady callings. The police of
Kansas City, Mo-, have no authority
in Kansas City, Kan, and if thug
is "eing chased on the Missouri
side, his chances of escape are cX-

happens to be standing right at the
imaginary line dividing the two
states; and even should he be
caught, all the red tape of rcquisi-

with in order to bring him to JUS

situated at the junction of the Mis-

latter being called by the natives

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.--The stock market
showed much further unsettlement today
under the continued influence of the wild
ening of Russian disturbances and our
own tight money market
AS the day progressed these influences
seemed to lose their force for a time and
stocks recovered their losses. The upward
movement of the later dealings was de-
sultory and spotty in the last degree.
The high grade railroad stocks and the
better known industrials played q small
part In the movement and speculative ac-
tiVfty was diverted again in a mark ed de-
gree TO stocks of minor grade, especially
non-dvidend paying industrias.
Money continued in rather scanty sup
ply and loaned above per cent from the
outset. Some of the forces of depletion of
bank reserves were still in opera tions.
But since the speculation has weathered Il
20 per cent money rate this fall without
serious detriment to speculation senti-
ment seemed to lean to the conviction
that Fridays 10 per cent rate might safely
be ignored, especially as the stringency
was somewhat relaxed today.
The banks are losing again to the sub
treasury, the amount gone into that in
sutton since the bank statement was
dollars, while the credit balance at the
clearing house this morning indicated A
continuance of the drain. New York ex-
change at Chicago, however, rose today to
8 cents premium. Discounts declined in
London in spite of the sharp turn in the
continental exchanges against London.

Paris was particularly marked. That
financial center has to bear the brunt of
the disordered conditions in Russian
finance. The slump in Russian govern
ment bonds was reflected in free Iiquida-

is largely interested in order to protect
their holdings of Russians.
The undeviating confidence with which
French holders of Russian securities held
through the strain of the Japanese war
has given way to a condition of mind
