New York. Aug. l9.-The bear element seems TO

To President Roosevelt and Dr.. Long
this nature story is respectfully referred.
The animal in question belongs to a
gilded youth who has more money than
he knows what to do with. and conse-
Quently spends il somewhat boyishly.
His retriever enjoys a scent bath every
morning. and is exceedingly particular
as to where he dimes. He is now growing
fat and lazy, and, although fond OF
sneaking out for a morning stroll in Cen
tral Park. objects TO walking home
again. His plan is TO watch for a han
som, if going in his direction at q walk,
and slip into IL. When any attempt IS
made to dislodge him he simply displays
two rows Of magnificent teeth aad
wrinkles his upper lip in a curiously sug-
gestive smile. Most of the park keepers
know him. and give the cabmen his ad-
dress. Cabmen in the vicinity OF the park
keep a lockout for him, and leave their
doors invitingly open. When the dog
reaches home he remains in the cab until
the valet comes out to pay the fare Then
he deseends in a leisurely manner and
eats his luncheon with appetite

Opinions on the New York Market.
G. Bowie Chipman. of e. r. Chapman
& Co.-"To-day's short session brought
real liquidation, and commission house
selling was heavier than for two or three
days. The market opened lower than
yesterdays closing. and Immediately gave
away in a movement which carried al
most all the leaders lower than for
months. There seemed to be an almost
entire lack of support and the insiders
showed no inclination to check the de-
cline. Under 127 for Union. "A for Cop
pers, 9S for Smelters, aud 991z for Read
ing, some little buying followed, and the
list rallied In an irregular way, closing
but a fraction 10 one point better than
the lowest, but stlll leaving the losses
drastic Until proper support is given
and some concentrated action is taken
10 restore public confidence, We can see
nothing but a declining market, and would
still adhere TO the policy Of selling stock
on the bulges. OF course, ii might be re-
membered. the short interest may become
over-extended, and a rally take place
for that reason We would not sell
stocks on such drives as to-day's.
Benjamin Woodruff, Of Post & Flagg-
FTo-day's trading was one Of persistent
pressure and a further decline in prices.
Practically the whole market s.Ls weak
No further adverse occurrences developed
TO affect the market. and it seems to be
merely a continuation OF the wave Of
liquidation and short selling recently in
augurated by the attacks upon corpora
ton interests throughout the country. The
strained condition of the money market
Is an important factor in this connection.
as OF itself il made the autumn months
difficult enough, but when coupled with
the anti-corporation campaign. has pro-
duced almost as severe q decline IN prices
as occurred IN march. The bank state
ment was more favorable than expected
and brings reserves TO about a parity with
last year. Time funds however, are still
extremely scarce. a-d it looks as II at
least for the early portion Of the crop
moving period, rates would be very high.
The only advice I can give in such n
time is that while prices are abuOrmally
low, it is well Tor those who are in the
market 10 be extremely cautious and
strengthen their position as much as pos
sible"
