NEW YORK, N. Y, Sept. IL
Prices of stocks have ground in to-
days market and the increase in
volume over yesterday was regarded
with d!sfavor In view OF the prepond-
GRANGE of selling orders executed.
One supposition was that the easier
rate for call money was taken adj
vantage of to realize profits by pre-
vlous purchasers. Another was that
the casing of the money rate was
less pronounced than had been hoped
for and gave less promise of per-
mancncc owing to the continued
causes of drain upon the Now York
money supply.
Rates for time loans were mild and
continued to command premium
over the legal rates for periods up
to six months.
The extraordinary promise of the
crops contained in yesterdays gov
crnmcnt reports was not much re.
garded owing to the acreage. influence
already placed in the market by the
crop spectators and prices fell by
successive movements throughout the
day and closed weak and near the
lowest.

William Stack, who was fined S1o by Justice Mcdonald recently under charge of maintaining nuisance con trary to the provisions of city ordi- nance, yesterday appeared in court and through his attorney, Joseph E. Morrison, entered an appeal from the decision of the Justice Court.
 Stack, who owns several dwellings on North Chihuahua Hill, is charged by neighbors in that vicinity with hay ing built a box on the hillside, the lower side of which was made of a coarse screen, through which all the liauid refuse from his kitchen seeped, causing a bad stench throughout the neighborhood.
 In a communication to the City Council at it's last meeting, Stack of- rered to join with other residents In his neighborhood in an effort to alley late existing conditions, claiming that 1t is impossible for any individual to remedy them. No action was taken. so in order to come within the statutes of limitations in cases of appeal, Stack took the action noted above.

BREAK INTO CORRAL OF J. L. GES SELL AND STEAL VALUABLE
 HORSE.

DOUGLAS, June .::3.-(Sprcial)-
 Some time after o'clock this morn ing and daybreak horsethieves broke the gate of the corral in the rear of the Gessel home at the corner of Ninth street and B avenue. They took MT. GesseFs handsome black pacer from the corral and made of with the animal, one of the finest that ever stepped on a Douglas street. MT. Ges- sel immediately notified Capt. Ryn- ming and the latter detailed Sergeant Hopkins and Ranger Ray Thompson to go out on a hunt for the horse. They had no clew to start On, but expect to pick up the trail of the horsethief in short order.
 Several nights ago saddle was stol. en from the home of Mac Smith, sev- erai blocks from the Gessel home, and it is believed that the same thieves committed both thefts.
 MT. Gessel expects to move back to Minnesota the latter part of the week, and yesterday offered his horse for safe. He valued it at $500.

FOREST FIRES RAGE
 IN THE CHlRICAHUAS
FOREST SUPERVISOR WIRES TO BISBEE FOR AID, AND MExi-
 CANS ARE SENT.

Fires raging in the Chiricahua mountains in the government forest re serve south of Rodeo are reported to have assumed large dimensions and to have gotten beyond control of Su- pervisor McGlone. MT. McGlone wir ed to Bisbee yesterday for aid, and Superintendent Sherman Of the Cop per Queen Mining Co. at once dis patched twenty-five Mexican laboTe-s to the scene of the fire. They are in charge of D. F. Kelley, and left on the 5:45 train for Fl Paso last evening.
 Reports from the scene of the fire are meager, but it is assumed that Mo Clones message indicates a devastat- ing fire which has proved too nut h for him and the settlers in that region. J. E. Thompson, who recently went to some expense to prepare camp in the region where the fire is reported to be raging, left for the scene of the conflagration last evening.
