OUT OF the thousand men on parole,

Cieland compels men who are out on
parole TO report to him every two
weeks. Usually he orders them to
bring their wives and children with

behaving, he helps him in various
ways. -Four hundred citizens of Chi

assist Judge Cleland. and a Chicago
bank has offered to give SIS to start
savings account for every man from
Judge Cleland's court who is honest
ly trying.
Judge Cleland is the right sort of
reformer. We admire this man unre-
servediy, because he is sincere and
modest, and is really accomplishing
something. He is not candidate for
office; he Is not willing to turn the
country upside down in order to gain
little advantage for himself.-Atchi-

Senator Brewer wants federal Judges
elected by the people, and has intro

lure calling upon the Kansas congress
slonal delegation to use it's best en-
beavers to change the law for that pur-
pose. The influences behind the ap-
pointment Of some of the federal judges
have caused severe criticism, but a
change in the manner of their selection

CLOSE OF MARKET |S
 ACTIVE AND T0NE BUOYANT
CERTAIN RAILROAD SECURITIES SHOW GREAT ACTIVITY IN
 VIEW OF BIG DEALS.

NEW YORK, December 22.-There was some shrinkage of activity in the stock market today in connection with the recovery. The closing was very active and the tone buoyant at top prices The feature was the circulation of rumors of proposed absorptions of combinations of railroad systems.
 There was great activity in all secnri- ties of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas, following the present. assumption of the sale of the Colorado Southern to the Hill system. This is fair index of what may happen to other southwest roads with Gould outlet eligible for combination with northern roads. Opin- ion halted between the Chicago & Al ton and the St. Paul as the most prob able absorber system.
 A considerable short interest was built up in the market in the course of the sharp fall in prices which occurred since last week, and buying to cover was help to the advance.
 Bonds were stron.

PENSION BUILDING ID
 BE SCENE 0F INAUGURAL

WASHINGTON, December 22.-The pension office building is likely to be the scene of the inaugural ball, despite objections. The reason of the falling through of an appropriation for an audi torium which was to have been built by private subscriptions has been ex- plained to congress and representations have been made which would seem to argue for further concession, which would permit the use of the pension building as heretofore.
 Teh subscriptions for the inaugural fund today reached the grand total of $70,0O0 and the committee is confident it can raise the full amount of $l00,000 deemed necessary.

Market News

It has been stated rather positively that the new smelling company will have a capital of s25, 5,0o0,000 and that smelters will be built wherever the busi ness will warrant it. Shelters cannot be built in day, however, and further more the American company. has an ownership in properties which assures it a large portion of the business it is now doing. It controls the Nevada Consolidated and Cumberland Ely prop critics at Ely and the Utah Copper in the Bingham camp among other large producers. The chances are that the selling has been overdone,
 Unless good judges are mistaken, the hardening of money is temporary feature, the indications being that af ter this month B financing is concluded money will be almost as easy, owing to the return of funds to this center, as it has been since the election. The placing of Pennsylvania l35, ,500-ton steel rail order is accepted by unprelu- diced observers as the most significant industrial development of the year and disposes of the contention, recently heard, that such purchasers would be deferred pending tariff legislation. 9th CT companies will, of course, follow the example of the Pennsylvania and in all probability the new bushes to be thus distributed among producers within the next thirty days will foot up sl5,OOO,. 900. The meaning of this. to the steel business and especially to the United States Steel corporation is too plain to need explanation. As is well known, the railroads throughout the whole of the current year, and, in fact, for a somewhat longer period, have been practically out of the market. Yet in spite of this great loss of business, the Steel corporation has been able to earn for the calendar year over 1 per cent on it's common stock.-Windsor in Bos ton News Bureau.
Daily Arizona silver belt., 1908-12-23

Steel common gets to lower price level on every decline. The stock is now having a more natural market than at any time since the election. People in the trade sold ont their speculative holdings from 5S to 56 right after Mir. Carnegie's magazine article was pub lished The public that bought at the high level has not sold to any extent. There is moderate short interest n the stock The street rather expects to see Steel get below $50 q share during the heat of the tariff revision discus sion
 Money is now higher here than it is in the markets of Europe that have been seeking American gold. It is of advantage for European markets to lend here. Consequently exports of gold have been stopped for the time being and are not likely to be renew ed SO long as there is the present dis. parity in New York and Paris money rates. The effect of higher call money rates on so many of the stocks which have been active and which produce nothing in income was to increase the carrying charge on them at the same time that they were falling in market value.
