the weeds; they pull the weeds out of the sugar beets and one ape can do more work of this particular kind than six smart boys; they cut and bind the grain and shock and stack 1t, and they cut and husk the corn; they haul the hay, grain and fodder to the barns and do practically all the work in hauling the farm produce to town; they tend the stock and feed all the animals; they clean out the stables and outbuildings and milk the cows, separate the cream and churn the butter; they do all the housework and one old nanny ape is one of the best cooks in that part of the country and her canned fruit and berries her dried fruit and preserves of all kinds would sweep all the prizes at the country fair if she were allowed to compete, which she is not.
 In fact, they do almost everything on the farm that the best kind of hired men and hired girls could do, and as they are very industrious and faithful have no bad habits never want to go off on holidays and never demand any wages they are fairly coining money for their owner.
 On the other hand, it Is the general opinion of the neighbors that no living beings are happier or better cared for than these apes. They have all they can eat of the best and richest food; they have all the bright and showy clothes they care for, with red hats and blue hats and hats of every color; they have swings and merry -go-rounds and hoops and balls and poines and carts and bi- cycles, but all these favorable conditions had no effect in keeping the members of the society from bringing their action against MT. Smith to prevent him from keeping the apes in captivity. The court however, made short work of the com plaint for, as the court remarked, it was a case where a society for the preven- tion of cruelty to animals was taking interest in the apes and the theory that apes were not animals, but men, and that this notable inconsistency in the papers was fatal to the case, and the court threw it out and made the society pay the costs.

RUNS FARM WITH APES.
Trained Simians Do All the Work For
 Smart Agrcuturist.

Lesuer (Minn) Cor. Chicago Chronicle
 The Cheever society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals has failed in it's efforts to interfere-for a good purpose, it clams-in the business affairs of Got tlieb Smith in regard to his manner of conducting his farm.
 Smith is a bachelor. a queer man liv- ing all by himself and running an exten- sive farm, and nearly all the work on the farm is done now and for nearly twenty years has been done by a large number of trained apes or orang-outangs.
 These samples of our forefathers, if Darwinism is to be believed, are certain ly remarkable beasts under the manage ment and control of MT. Smith, and it is his very success in taking care of them that has brought him under the fire from the prevention society, for it is alleged in its papers that the creatures who do the work on the Smith farm are so high ly developed that they are not really any longer beasts, but are a lower order of human beings, and that Mir. Smith in re- taning them in his service as he does without their formal, legally expressed consent and without payment of any wages to them, is guilty of keeping slaves
 Many years ago there was circus fail ed out at Cheever-that is, creditors levied upon it while it was showing there, and as the debts could not be paid the sherin sold 1t out at auction, tent, wagons, ami mals and all, and at the sale MT. Smith bought six of the large orang-outangs for $1 apiece, none of the circus men who attended the sale seeming to want them and nobody else making a bid.
 He took them home and tanned them so that he could let them run around the place and then began teaching them to do many different things on the farm, beginning with simple tasks and gradual ly taking up more difficult ones as the animals became more intelligent.
 The old animals were rather tender and but the young they raised were hardier and now they have become as tough and inured to the weather condi tions in this latitude as the men who live here are. He has now about thirty of the animals, and they are wonderful help 70 him. They blow the land and plant the crops; they cultivate the corn and hoe

 When Bill, the ranchman, came from Denver to New York to play the races he put up at one of the most expensive ho els in the city and took one of the most. expensive rooms Then he went broke. The proprietor of the hotel and the clerk held a private consultation.
 'We will let him stay here,'' they de- cided, but from now on we will feed him liver and bacon until he pays his bill. Nothing does he get in this house from now on but liver and bacon"
 They fed Bill liver and bacon for break fast, dinner ana supper TOT apout three weeks, then his luck turned. He forth with walked out to a strange cafe to get something to eat. He looked over the bill of fare.
 Whats this in the middle?" he asked Liver and bacon?''
 ''Yes, sir" the waiter answered.
 Give me everything on the bill of fare both ways from liver and bacon," order ed Bill.

Consequently at g the average earn ing power and undivided equities belong Ing to the common stock are equivalent to an investment yield of about 401a per cent.

The street has taken the Union Pacific financing with bad grace. Prior to the announcement of the plans for raising new capital for the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific, Union Pacific was made to sell above $50, or S3O above the March panic price. This week, the stock was forced down below $133 and the new Union Pacific bonds sold in the market below the subscription price to stockholders. The stock was put up above $50 in April for the purpose of making the new bonds look attractive to the investors They don't look so attractive now as they did when they were brought out. However, the banking syndicate, which is sup ported both in this country and abroad,
 is ready to take all the bonds not sub scribed for by the stockholders, and the road is sure of getting fits money

The bears on the market are talking about $20 for Steel common. They base their prediction on the belief that we are to have an industrial setback before the Presidential election next year. and that this setback will be most pronounced in the steel trade. About half the output of the steel plants of tue country is taken by the railroads, and there can be no question that the railroads are going to be less lavish with orders for while than they were last year. They are hay ing great difficulty in raising capital on favorable terms, and all over the country they are meeting with antagonistic leg islation which makes them very reluctant to plan for more capital expenditures.

Liquidation of Prominent Capi-
 taIiStS Causes Slump
PUBLIC IS NOT BUYING
Bad Crop Reports Have Had Their Effect in Forcing Further Liquida- tion in Stocks-Gossip of
 the Street.
BYW. c. NICHOLAS.

New York, May 25.-(speclal.)-T slump in the market this week which carried some stocks down below the level of the March panic prices, was due very largely to the liquidation by some prom inent capitalists, who had that tired feeling,' and who wanted to exchange some of their securities for cash. The market wasn't in condition to take this liquidation with very good grace The crop situation is disturbing the public is not buying stocks, and the big interests are not in mood just now to help relieve somebody else's burden.
 rather remarkable thing occurred on Tuesday when Steel common actually loaned flat. This Is the first time in the history of the Steel Corporation that this has occurred. As there are 5,000 GOO shares of Steel common outstanding such a scarcity of the stock in the loan crowd arouses d great deal of interest. The stock loaned flat because some of the liquidatng capitalists who had Steel com mon in their strongboXes in Pittsburg and other interior towns. borrowed the stock here to sell 1t against tneir holdings. This is a favorite device for liquidatng big lines of stock It creates the impression that the selling is speculative short sell ing, and that the stock will have to be bought m the market later 10 cover the short selling. One of the capitalists who thus sold Steel common this week is un- derstood to have been Charles Schwab. MT. Schwab is a vry rich man, of course, but. since he left the Steel Corporation. he has extended his financial obligations over various parts of the country He is largely interested In the Bethlehem Steel company and has put a great deal of money into mines and mining pros poets in the west It may be that MT. Sehwab thinks he can get better return on his money in mines than he can sin Steel common. MT, Schwab however Is great bull on the steel stocks Three years ago when Steel common was sell ing at $10 a share, he told his friends that he knew of no better speculative investment in the market than this stock. He predicted that it would sell a $50 with in three years and that the time was no far distant when 1t would sell higher than the preferred stock on it's dividend merits. The first part of Mr. Sehwabs prediction has come true
