LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

A meeting of the board OF directors oil
the American National Bank was held
today but only routine business was
transacted Robert n. Harper. formerly
president of the bank. and now a can
ddate for election to his old post was
seen as he left the meeting, and in
speaking of the rumor circulated yester-
day that a proposition was on foot among
the interests opposed to his elevation to
the presidency to force the issue by
either buying Mr.. Harper's stock or else
selling their own to him, said: My stock
is not for sale. You cannot put it toe
strongly. My stock is not for SALE
There was larger attendance at the
Stock Exchange today than has been in
evidence since the summer vacation sea
son began. At the same time the amount
of business transacted was light, Capital
Traction bonds and stock and Lanston
stock being the only issues which were at
all active.
The action OF the United States circuit
court In Philadelphia today in declaring
the Hepburn bill unconstitutional had a
marked effect in hardening the tone OF
the already strong market. AS a result
OF the decision, of course. Reading and
the stock OF other coal-carrying and coal
land-owning railroads were much in de-
mand and the prices moved upward
steadily.

Salmon as Food.
From the Outing Magazine

FROM the outing Magazine
During the last few years canned salm-
on has been taking fits place very rapid
ly among the important food supplies OF
the world. The expansion Of the markets
in the United States has been truly re-
markable. Brokers taking the aggregate
Of the 1906 pack in comparison with the
amount of salmon remaining In first
hands before the opening sales on the 1907
pack. show that four million cases Of can
ned extraordinarily tho entire 1905 pack
found a ready market during the twelvs
months after its production. Because of
this increased domestic demand. the usu-
al allotment of half million cases to the
markets Of the United Kingdom was re-
duced to less than q hundred thousand
cases. leaving the British jobbers clamor-
ing for stocks months before the new
pack was available. In nine months time
the consumption Of canned salmon in the
United States amounted to virtually 5000
600 cases, or, concisely, 2,956.0OO cases. and
three months before the 1907 pack ar
rived, jobbers were sending in orders for
stock which could not be supplied The
cleanup of the 1907 pack was accom-
plished with an equal facility, only few
months being necessary to mark the ex-
haustion Of all grades Of salmon except
one which, being cheaper grade and not
SO largely in demand. was carried over In
considerable quantities.
This means that canned salmon has be-
come of primary Importance as food
product and taken Its place with other
universal foods such as beef. pork. NUT
ton and breadstuffs. Packed under the
most sanitary conditions, containing more
nutritious qualities than any other staple
food, and being sold at price easily
within reach Of the most slender pocket
books, 1t has gained worldwide favor
that Is we'll merited.

CLEVELAND. Ohio. September TO-
The Iron Trade Review says:
While in it's general aspects the market
Is replete with promises of better things
in the future there is much in the occur
rences of today that clouds the horizon.
After so long a period Of depression, 1t is
entirely natural that the competition OF
mills and furnaces to share in the i'm
proved demand should bring out a range
of prices not in accord with Official"
schedules, and until business is more
plentiful. it is also to be expected that
these conditions will continue. Sheets,
plates and structurals are the three
products in which the shading is most
widely felt. and cutting ranged from 81
to 81 a ton. An exception is made in
favor Of fabricated structural steel, the
manufacturers of which have steadily
grown firmer in their prices as the volume
Of business has increased. There is one
bright spot in the market that illumines
the whole list and forms the basis for
all the hopeful representations that are
made IT is the demand for material
which enters directly into the manufac-
specifications for steel bars are such that
for the first time in eight months the Chi
cago manufacturers of this product are
compelled to make ap their rolling
schedules two or three weeks In advance.
Wire nails, fencing and barb wire are

American Steel and Wire Company re-
porting between % and so per cent Of it's

LONDON. September 10.-In the late
dealings today the stock markets showed
irregularity. especially in the American
department. which was affected by con-
ficting advices from New York. The
Hartman issues were weak. but others
advanced at the official close. On the
curb Southern railway stocks developed
strength, advancing l per cent.
These were followed by Atchison and
the steel stocks. Consols ended u lower
than last night, at SO, owing to the heavy
Withdrawals of gold from the Bank of
England. Home rails were firm with the
exception of Scotch railway issues, which
were unfavorably affected by the disap-
pointing dividend of North British lines
Canadian shares closed under the best
prices. Grand Trunks were stronger
Foreign securities generally were droop-
ing. Venezuelan stocks enjoyed a squirt
of points on reports that a settlement
was approaching in that country's foreign
relations. Notwithstanding the record

SOME VIOLENT PUNCTUATION!
Snecial Dispatch TO The Star.

Special Dispatch TO The Star.
NEW YORK. September 1O-Today's
stock market on the whole presented a
decidedly irregular and. indeed. it
might be said a somewhat unsettled
appearance. Nearly all Of the more &C.
tive stocks which have been the lead
ers'' of the market for an indefinite
time were reactionary, while N other
directions quite extensive advances
took place at one time or another dur
ing the business session. On the other
hand, the market failed to preserve a
well defined tone for any considerable
length of time, and. apparently in SYM
pathy with the weakness of he erst-
while leaders, even those stocks which
made the most extensive advances dur
ing the forenoon reacted smartly after
midday
BY far the most important news Of
the day came from Philadelphia in the
announcement that the United states
circuit court of appeals had. by q di-
vided bench, declared unconstitutional
the much-talked-about COMMODITY"
clause of the Hepburn railway act.
This intelligence was accompanied,
and indeed had been preceded by a
lively rise in the shares of the anthra-
cite and bituminous coal roads. but
these also participated in the irregular
movements of the afternoon.
There was not much doubt that the
litigation will now be carried up to the
Supreme Court at Washington. but
along with the decision in the Standard
OIL fine case it undoubtedly affords
much ground for encouragement to
those directing the affairs Of corpora
t1ons and those interested in securities.
About the same time that this intelli-
Rence was received announcement was
made that the directors of the Ameri-
can Locomotive Company had suspend
ed the dividend on the common stock
That stock had f1uctuated violently dur
Ing the morning. but apparently the
passage of the dividend had been in
great measure discounted Except in
the instances of the coal stocks and
American Locomotive there was little
to be adduced in connection with the
movements In particular securities.
Aside from the stocks named. compare
were New York Central. the Rock Island
shares. Atlantic Coast Line and Southern
Railway.
Local fractions Active.
The local traction issues were more act
I've and somewhat firmer than for some
time past.
In the industrial and miscellaneous
group Consolidated Gas was reactionary
and the United States Steel shares and
Amalgamated Copper were heavy.
The London stock market was also ir-
regular and failed to benefit to any ex-
tent from the strong weekly showing Of
the Bank of England.
Foreign houses were again active in the
local dealings, but the operations OF this
description again showed comparatively
small results. The foreign exchange mar
ket continued strong in connection with
the various special transactions now being
conducted there and the local money mar
ket showed a distinctly firmer tone

Coal Stocks Affected by Decision.

NEW YORK. September 1O.-The coal
stocks were favorably affected by the
announcement that the Pennsylvania
courts had declared the Hepburn commodi-
ties clause unconstitutional. Reading and
Baltimore and Ohio advanced points
from the lowest Of the morning, Delaware
and Hudson IFS. Jersey Central u and
Pennsylvania and Erie l each Dealings
in Reading and Baltimore and Ohio i'm
mediately after the news came out were
on an extensive scale. The announcement
came as surprise to Wall street, where
the decision of the court was not looked
for until the latter part Of the month.

seems probable that an eatable pear or
possibly a cookable pear was in possession
Of our ancestors a good while before there
were eatabIe apples or even cherries.

But the whole pear family was just as
surely working up toward civilized and
garden conditions as human beings them

together, with pretty nearly equal step.
and now it looks as IL our future develop

past.
