POLICE COURT NOTES.

Peter Bagan, white-horse drunk,
proved conclusively last night that he
cannot stay out of Jail. Pete has been
serving long term for plain drunk,
and has spent the major portion of his
time in Jail for several years. Friday
afternoon he was turned out before his
time expired. He was released on a
promise to go to work and refrain from
looking on the alec when it was not
red. Solemnly promising to be good
and get in Jail never no more" Pete
shook hands with the chief and bid all
a sad farewell The night was still
young when an officer dragged the
same Pete. soaked to the eyebrows, back
to the city bastile and threw him in
for quite while.
Moral: What's the Use?

COMMENT ON MARhET.

g. Bowie Chipman. OF +. r. Chapman
q Co.-"The market was full OF sensa-
tional movements and presented several
changes Of direction. First. after opening
steady 10 slightly lower, the leaders de-
clined rapidly This was attributed to
the suspension OF the National Bank of
Commerce Of Kansas City. Mo. one OF
the largest institutions IN that section OF
the country From this level. a violent
rally set IN and the short interests were
routed without mercy Many new high
records for recent movements were made.
The local call money market reflected
further Improvement. new loans being
made from to per cent. The bulk
of the purchasing power recently origi-
mated in the covering OF short contracts,
and. without any question, some Of the
largest interests in the street have been
sellers Of stock in no small amounts on
these rallies. The market must be in
more vulnerable position than for some
time. and while this strength may con-
tinue a little further IL seems that a
fair reaction should take place. reac-
ton not necessarily bringing prices even
approximately to recent low levels. but
a substantial reaction from these nigh
and from some points OF view abnormal
figures.
George l.. Edmunds, Of Miller & Co
In the face Of the announcement OF the
failure in Kansas City OF one Of the most
prominent banks OF the West the stock
market continued comparatively strong
There was some selling in the copper
stocks early, from Boston sources. After
the announcement OF the Kansas City
bank failure. there were rumors Of other
Western banks failing. all Of which were
later denied. The bear party sold down
many stocks IN the first hour. and there
being only a few real stocks for sale
their bidding to cover gave the market
a decided flip. The floating supply OF
stocks is small Larger interests nave
the situation well In hand. the financial
situation is gradually righting Itself, ana
the banking interests are behind the mar
ket. Indiscriminate public buying may
come later. but az present I see few dan
ger signs. and continue in the belief in
the strength OF the bull position"
Benz. Woodruff. OF Post & Flsgg-''The
market continued its exhibition OF bear
batting and there was q further scramble
for stocks by some OF the shorts AS
nearly as I can sum up the situation. s,
seems to be as follows: Two weeks ago
it became evident TO the large interests
