NEW YORK, Sept. Gothic stock
market became very quiet today. Re.
nortu from brokers OF the return Of
large blocks Of stocks whloIl had been
borrowed FOR delivery afforded a elite
10 one reason for the slowing down
on tho buying In the extent of the
covering OF abort contracts which has
already been dono. With the pcr-
cepion that buying OF this character
WAS largely responsible for the au-
vance which has occurred IN prices.
operators were disinclined to enter on
extensive commitments on tho long
side OF the market Tho halt in the
advance was not the result OF any
change IN tho moro confident feeling
which has grown up in the financial
district in the last few days but was
the expression rather OF spirit OF
caution In rlsklng any renewed strain
on the money position or an undue

probably on account of the deposits
of government funds made BY the

statement for three weeks past have
indicated gain In cash which the
statement in turn failed to confirm,
there was some hesitation today in
operating In stocks to discount Il

Alderman M. J. Gregg, who was elected as Alderman from the Seventh ward, to succeed Alderman Parker, promoted to the presidency of the city council said in the lobby last night
 'I regret exceedingly the differences which have arisen between Mayor Ward with a number of aldermen and Presi- dent P r1ter and those who supported him. I am generally accounted a member of the majority though I am anxious to be numbered among those representing the people who are for the people and for the law.
 ."I shall not absent myself from the board meeting Wednesday night, no mat ter who may be in the chair. I will rec ognize the chairman of that meeting, and vote according to my conception of the law. It seems to me that absence with out excuse would be cowardice and l am sure there Is an earnest desire on the part of the members of the entire admin istration, legislative and executive to subserve the best interests of the city. The best way to do this is for us all to get together

Farmers of choccoIocco Valley.

"'The farmers of Choccoloeeo valley, Calhoun county. will mske about two thirds stand on ;heir cotton crop tb.s year" said MT. k. l.. Hughes or Chocco- loeco. who was in Birmingham last night.
 On account of the draught which they have had they do not expect to make more than 55 or 60 per cent of regular crop, and on this account the farmers of the community feel that their cotton should bring at least IS or 14 cents.
 Most of the farmers in the Choccolocco valley are very enthusiastic about holding their cotton for the minimum price of 15 cents set by the Farmers union and the Southern Cotton Growers association. A large number of them have stock in the warehouse which is now being erected in Anniston, at a cost of s16oo0, and on account of it's being built of concrete and flreproof material the insurance rate is so low that it will enable the farmers to store their cotton and hold it for the minimum price of 15 cents.''

Mayor Wards Charges

The standard of official action is said broadsde of reform has perhaps hit this city. It comes to us indirectly, but so long as 1t comes and continues to get in it's work we need not be troubled over it's indirectness.
 The indirectness is due no doubt to the muddle that has arisen over the new municipal code. The Parkerites have attempted to put the city under the terms of the code, and Mayor Ward declines to touch the code even with 40-foot pole. The two sides are lining up for battle, and the first onset is expected to occur tonight, when the City Council meets.
 The people no doubt desire to know whether or no they are living under the new municipal code, but this ques- ton does not interest them nearly so much as does the wave of reform that has been started as an incident of the contention between the forces of Ward and the forces of Parker. Let the wave of reform go on until all the facts are ascertained, code or no code.
 Manager Donelson of the Bitulithic company involved in the pending con troversy welcomes investigation, and so does Alderman O'Neill and so like wise will Alderman Burnett. The people certainly do, and the Wardites and the Parkerites should vie with each other in pushing on the proposed investigation until every possible and valuable fact is elicited and brought to the surface.

Mir. Roosevelt At Keokuk

Without scarcely any preface the President told the Iowans he desired a national supervision of railroads as close as that of national banks. He has no more liking for government by plutocracy than for one by mob. He went on balancing the one against the other, but declaring at the same time that no appeal on account of the effect upon business would stay his hand in the endeavor to punish wrong doers in politics or in business.
 He soon digressed to waterways, and to the remark that all of them should be opened. The rest of his speech is devoted to the farmers and to home making, and he winds up with a plea for the small ranchmen, "who blow and pitch hay themselves" The manage ment of the governments grazing lands in the interest of the small farmer in the far west is really the warmest part of his Keokuk effort, and he made the speech at least a thousand miles away in state that contains no grazing lands that are held by the government.
 MT Roosevelt has remarkable gift for presenting truisms that no one dis putes, and his speech at Keokuk is made up of generalizations that are sound enough, but that do not help a bit in settling the problems now before the people. He did say that he would continue to prosecute the wicked trusts. but he at no time said that he would attempt to put an end to private monopoly, to the gathering of huge slush funds, or to the Dingley scheme of legalized robbery. In vague way he got onto the democratic platform, but at no point was he definite, and he carefully avoided any reference to Dlngleyism or to the publication of campaign funds, or to third term. He did, however, indulge in plenty of plati- tudes based on the Ten Command ments.

Our New Fiscal Year

The states new fiscal year was be- gun yesterday and the state auditor will no doubt be able soon to tell us what the footing of the states taxable values are Tn 1906 they stood at $37S,- 468,4 ,462; in 1905, at $344,224,221; in 1900, at 70,4oS,432. They will cross the 4O0-million line this year. for the increase in Jefferson county alone is about $14,OoO,0oO How well the new state board has been able to equalize taxable values will not be known until the auditor presents the figures county by county for the new fiscal year.
 In 1905 the states revenue was $3,775,0 900, and in 1906 the sum total was undoubtedly $4,O0o,0o0. The pres ent year will however be the bumper year, and an estimate of this years revenues cannot be made until the list of taxable values has been made up. The state is growing richer by leaps and bounds, and it will be a poor year hereafter that does not add S25,000,0 900 to the states list of taxable property.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-10-02

chances are that the city will get the benefit of about l2 per cent of the in- crease in county assessments. But the taxes from increased valuations will not as a rule be paid until the last days of the city's next financial year, which is the calendar year 1908.
 The long and short of the matter is this-if prohibition were to be adopted other than liquor licenses must be in- creased, perhaps doubled, if the city's affairs in 1908 are to be conducted without undne economy or stringency. It is best to see the situation as 1t would exist in 1908, and the voter who desires to know the ruth should read and reread City Treasurer Eustls' com munication published in Mondays Age Herald.

City Finances Next Year

\ In 1906 the city spent $10e, ,500 more than it took in On top of this deficit comes an anticipated loss of income through the possible adoption of pro. hibition of s123,000, and a further in- direct loss of s23,OOO. These figures point to deficit in 1908 that is ap- palling. City Treasurer Eustis yester- day presented the facts Tn the city's financial condition, and he shows among other things that there is no legal way in which the anticipated deficit could be met through increased assessments of real and personal prop erty.
 If prohibition be adopted by the county the adjustment of the budget of 1908 to it becomes indeed a serious matter, for the valuations of city prop erty in 1908 must be those of the county officers in 1907. Valuations cannot therefore be increased in 1908 beyond the county's list of taxable values in 1907 The valuations in the county have been pushed from $57 ,S7S,- 900 to about $71 100000. but what pro- portion of this increase is in the city cannot be accurately determined.

HOW RACES BEAR PAIN.

From the Philadelphia Record
 Moaning and grooming as if she were being tortured to death colored woman sat in the accident ward at the Jefferson hospital. Don't wind dat ban dage so tight doctor" she begged of an interne who was slsillfuly putting a bandage on her foot; you'll stop de cir eulaton, sure.' Wondering what dread full calamity had befallen the suffering woman, visitor asked another doctor what was the matter with her. He said nothing but a slight cut on the bottom of her foot. "Colored people always make a great disturbance over any phy- sical injury" he added, but the Italians are the worst. The sight of little wound seems to upset them entirely, and they come in here shrieking and crying, ac- companied by anxious friends and rel atives also shrieking and crying, over the slightest cut or burn. Americans and Germans seem to bear pain with the most fortitude, and in general women do bet ter than men"

 A woman can have more enjoyment worrying because her husbands fiannels are either too heavy or too light than any other way.

Strokes a Barber Makes.

Gus Yorke, of Yorke and Adams, who plays next week at the Bijou, has a well developed faculty for noting the unusual. He likes the queer side of life, and is always on the lookout for curious facts. Here is his latest story:
 T have formed a habit of counting the strokes that a barber makes in shay Ing me-" he said yesterday. Nov, the average man has no idea of what shave involves; he cannot tell whether a barber takes dozen strokes or thousand have had men guessing and no one comes anywhere near the facts For some time I have been counting the strokes that man takes in shaving me, and 1t is inter- esting.
 'I find that the first time he goes over my face he takes about 4so strokes, and when he goes over it the second time he takes about 260 strokes. That makes TAO strokes to a shave. They tell me that I have a hard beard to shave, and run above the average. But place 1t at 800 strokes which is very low, and see what you get for b cents. This doesn't count, either, the time that he fathers you, the
  the powdering, the salving, orSanythng but the mere use of the razor, and l haven't counted the stropping of that Five to 500 strokes on one shave-think of that! l was surprised when it was proved to me by the count, but l have kept up this count for some time now, and it varies but very little.
 f"Which adds another curious fact-the average barber slaves the same face in the same way, and a barber has rules for each sort of face, for different men count just about the same in shaving me You would think that every barber would do 1t differently, but such is not the case, they all shave given face alike. Some day l am going to count the stroke of the brush-offs whisk, to see how nearly they approximate to ragtime."
