Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. October S.-Speculators who
have been In close touch since the close Of
business on Saturday with some of the
largest interests in the stock market were
today OF the opinion that the trading this
week would be on q larger scale than last
week and that it would be less professional
Some persons who heretofore have been
skepttcal with regard to the monetary sit
uation believed that it would not be an
adverse factor in the stock market for
| some weeks to come. A representative of a
commission house. which has been a large
borrower on call money said that both call
and time funds were being freely offered
by the money brokers. Brokers who are
looking ahead several months asserted that
In their opinion there would be an abund-
ance of money soon after the first Of the
year for practically an indefinite period
There was the same confidence as was ex-
pressed last week on the part Of railroad
men that the st. Paul directors would
stockholders. These same railroad interests
looked for important deals involving some
OF the large railroad systems to be an
nounced within the near future.

President Winchell of the Chicago Rock
Island and Pacific Railway Company is
In town this morning. He says that while
there are no striking features in the traf-
fic Of the Rock Island. except it's enormous
ness. the management is very well satisfied
with the volume OF traffic secured and the
manner In which it Is being handled Mr.
Winchell does not believe that the Rock
Island or the other large western railroad
systems Will experience serious shortage
OF cars In proportion to the traffic handled
as in previous years.
II
In an Informal chat this morning he gave
an outline of the Improvement work which
the management has under way and he
stated emphatically that 1t Is proposed to
continue this work until all lines of the
system are In thoroughly satisfactory
condition The improvement work has been
carried on on the northern lines during the
summer, and during the winter months
will be conducted on the southern lines
where 1t Is possible to do outdoor work
practically throughout the winter months
Mr.. Winchell Is Of the opinion that from
this line on there will be less difficulty
than ever heretofore in maintaining stability
OF rates. He Is Of the opinion, also. that
there will be little difficulty in carrying out
the provision of the new rate law While he
thinks that some private estimates Of the
corn crop are too large. he believes that the
government estimates of 2 $50 OOO, 600 BUSH
els Is about right. He points out that when
a corn crop of this size and a large wheat
crop are secured, 1t Is impossible for east
ern interests to form anything like an ade-
quate idea OF the amount Of traffic furnished
by these two crops and the general mer-
chandise traffic resulting therefrom.

Odd Case of Dementia.

Sunday afternoon a young man, ap-
parently about twenty-five years of age,
got off the Pennsylvania passenger
train at this place and started towards
the iron bridge. He stopped at the
residence OF Rev. j. G. McEntire and,
though a total stranger, was taken in
and given supper. 1t was evidentfrom
his actions and talk that he was suffer-
ing from some mental disorder, but his
appearance and manners indicated
refinement and a good education. In
the evening he walked up to the M. E.
church with r. d. Albright and en-
tered during the vesper service, but
alone. After vesper service he went
to M. E. parsonage and acted so strange
ly that Chief-of-Polic Adelsperger was
sent for and he gave the young man
lodging in the town bastile. His par
ents reside in New Haven, Pa. Mr..
Adelsperger telephoned Monday to the
chief-ol-police at New Haven, who
knows the young mar and said he would
notify his parents, but his parents have
not been heard from. William Walters
is the young mans name. He can play
a piano nicely and is a good singer.

That having the hair shingled won't

That men as well as watches, are
apt to get out of order in the spring.
That when words fail a woman she

That anything comes to him that
waits, especially if he waits on himself.
That some men are always either
drowning their sorrows or celebrating
their joys.
That one never realizes how far
sound travels until a popular song has
made a hit.
That the only reason some men get
married is to put the property in the
wife's name.
That even the fellow who is addicted
to long winded stories may be short in

In Central Office.

Frequently people become impatient
with operators in telephone central
offices, but If they were to spend a little
time in a central Office and watch an
operator work, perhaps they would not
lose their temper quite so often. Re-
member when you call central that you
are not the only person that uses a
phone, a dozen other people may be
calling central at the same time you
call. Some times there may be occasion
for complaint, but generally the girls
give as prompt service as possible when
a number OF calls are being made at one
time. A telephone girl is in a good
position to hear people give vent to bad
tempers,

JUDGE REED REFUSES PETITION
Holds that Closing the Bars on certain
Days is a Legislative, not a Judicial Act.

Over in Clearield county Judge
Smith has made a ruling requiring all
bar rooms in that county to close on
legal holidays, and after the tragic &C.
currence at Falls Creek on Decoration
Day, a large petition was gotten up and
presented to Judge Reed asking that he
make a ruling for Jefferson county SINH
lar to that made in Clearfeld county
by Judge Smith Last week Judge
Reed handed down his opinion Oh the
request made by the petitioners, which
he refused to grant on the ground that
his complying with the prayer of the
petitioners would be a legislative act
and entirely aside from the duties of a
judge. Judge Reeds opinion is a lengthy
document in which he Gifted au-
thorities to substantiate his position in
the matter. Below we print one para
graph from the Judges opinion:
'The prohibited or restricted sale o
intoxicating liquors is admittedly a
legislative and not a judicial question.
In this commonwealth the legislature
has expressed the will of the people on
the subject, and has declared that 1t
be unlawful for any person, with or
without a license, to furnish for sale,
gift or otherwise, to any person any
spirituous, %vinous, malt or brewed liz
uors, on election day, on Sunday, nor at
any time to a minor, person OF known
Incorporate habits, or persons visibly
affected by Intoxicating drink. 1t is to
be observed the legislature has express
ly named the days on which licensed
dealers may not sell Intoxicating drinks;
also the person to whom they may not
sell at any time. Here we have a clear
and unequivocal expression of the legis-
lative mind on two subjects-the days
on which the licensed bar shall remain
closed, and the persons to whom sales
shall not be made. 1t is a maxim
in the law that in the absence of
ambiguity no exposition shall be made
which is opposed to the express words
OF the statute. The act of assembly
under consideration is free from ambig-
uity, and no amount of sophistry can
justify a departure from its plain pro-
visions on the subject now before the
court. 1t is too clear for argument that
to add days to those designated by the
legislature, or to enlarge the class of per-
sons to whom sales shall not be made,
is to assume and exercise a power that
does not belong to the judicial office.
This is not allowable by law, and can
not be justified on the ground Of either
immoderate praise or unjust denuncia-
ton. However desirable it may be to
have those places closed on other days
than those named in the act of assembly,
and especially on those days which
should be devoted to praise and thanks
giving instead of being given over to
drunken and riotous conduct. it is more
desirable that the judiciary shall not
assume the functions Of the legislature.
Therefore the remedy for this evil
should be sought for in the tribunal
authorized to prescribe it,"
