THE STOCK MARKET
SHORT SESSION INCLINED To BE
FEvERISH.
The hank of England Surrendered So
100000 of its supply of Gold
S1,55O,o00 Went to
Nv York.

New York, Sept. 29.--The short ses-
sion of the stock market today was
inclined to be feverish and prices f1uc-
tuated constantly and rather uncer-
tainly.
The weakness of the opening trad
ings were not renewed, but the later
strength was not sustained and the
market closed easy at general reac-
ton from the opening. The declines
were due to heavy sales to realize on
the late bulge yesterday and also to
some doubts aroused by the lack OF
official confirmation of the conclusion
of the ore mines deal of the Great
Northern and the United states Steel
Corporation. The stocks concerned in
that matter rallied strongly owing to
the Authoritative character of the un-
official information on the matter. They
ran off again in the late dealings. how
ever, and contributed much to the ir-
regular opening.
Preliminary estimates OF the bank
stetemeat again proved wide of the
facts, owing principally to the confu-
sion in the accounting of the gold i'm
port movement. The gain of nearly
81, 000, 900 in cash reserves disclosed by
, the statement where loss had been es-
timated running In some cases TO dou-
BILE that amount, caused vigorous
movement upwards, led by Reading and
some of the bituminous coal carriers
and Southwesterns. The effect on the
| money market of next Mondays heavy
settlements however leaves some cause
for any necessity.
The Bank of En- gland surrendered
$4.250,000 of its supply of gold today
of which $1.559,000 was for New York
This heavy drain adds to the proba-
bility of more effective measures oi

AN ANCIENT LOVE LETTER.

What is probably the oldest love let
ter in the world has been discovered
written on a brick about 1900 B. g. by
a Babylonian to a lady living at the
two Sippars" know to readers or the
Old Testament as Sepharvaim. The
lovers name was Timil, and he writes
thus to his Kasbuya "a word that
means lamb).
May the sun Of Marduk give thee
eternal life 1 would fain know 4 thy
health is good. Send me message 80
that can be informed OF 1t I am at
Babylon and cannot see thee, ana
therefore am very anxious. Send me a
message to tell me when thou wilt
come. so that my heart may rejoice.
Come in the October November month.
Nayest thou live long 80 that uaE
enjoy thy love"
