market had undergone an alteration al
though the opening dealings showed the
same response To the foreign disturb

vigorous recovery in response to sup

The New York money market was UNI
changed today. and call loans remained
very easy, in spite of probable rrepara-
tons for tomGrrOw's sale of 600 Of

there was some recovery from the bot

Middletown. Conn. July 24.-Arrayed
in goggles, wiser cap and long cloak,
Mrs. Eliza beth Hunt, of Brooklyn Bor-
ough, n. Y, who will be 106 years old
next month, is making her annual tour
of this state. The trip is being made
in an automobile which travels by easy
stages from one town to another. Hith-
erto the annual tour which Mrs. Hunt
insists on making each year has been
accomplished mostly by train.
Not much like the stage coaches OF
my girlhood." she laughs. Owing to
her rheumatism she has to be helped
into the car, but she scorns cushions
and Pillows She likes to sit on the
front seat with the chauffeur. and asks
many questions about the mechanism
of the car which the driver gladly eX-
plains TO her.
She often tells the chauffeur not to
held the machine in, because she says
she can stand as much speed as her
son. who is thirty-five years her Junior,
and who also enjoys the sport.

The merchants of the city have MOI
viewed with favor the proposition of
the committee on arrangements FOR
the entertainment of the Glidden tour
lists to keep open their stores this af-
ternoOn. They have been practica lily
unanimous in saying that the reasons
for the granting of this half holiday one
day during the week is for the benefit
of their clerks and that simply because
large number of automobiles are 10
visit the city is no reason why any cX-
ception should be made to this rule
In answer to the suggestion of the
committee that the stores appropriate
Thursday afternoon instead of Wednes-
day afternoon they say that it seems
not to be feasible for the reason that
the traders Of the farming communities
could not be expected to be informed
at such short notice Of the change and
that many disapPointments would be
oCcasioned.

THE HORSE MARKET.
The horse market about Boston for

falling off. The tone of the market
was weaker and the trade not as
brisk, as it has been, to an unusual de-
gree, up to now for the vacation
months. Those of the dealers trading
largely in acclimated horses report
trade for July as much better than in
the same time of year ago. There
was not as large a receipt of horses
brought in as usual last week, dealers
anticipating a slow trade, due to the
warm weather
CavananSh Bros. had a fair trade of
the amount Of horses they received. They
had on sale some heavy drafts, average
ing 1900 lbs, which they sold at $3.50.
Wheeler McElveen & Co. received 8
loads of mixed horses from Ohio, and l
load of fine driving horses from Yer
mont They report trade as dull, with a
falling off in prices of about so per head.
lsburgh & Go. held very good sales at
their stables during the past week. They
sold 60 head of acclimated horses readily
at surprisingly good prices for this sea-
son. Myer Abram received 5 carloads of
mixed horses They sold drafts at 500 to
$50. They report trade as quiet with a
falling off in prices. At Welch a Halls
stables it was quiet with but little 60
ing on. Moses Coleman & Son report
trade fair at their stables. particularly
for good driving horses and ponies. They
sold drivers at 500 to 500 and ponies at
sl7J to 500.
