fifty pheasants had been netted on the preserve
of Mrs. Mc-'s brother, in Kent. and brought
out to Uruguay in charge of keeper, who had
watched their cages day and night throughout
the voyage in order that no harm should come
to them. They had arrived at the 'estancia'
two weeks before the house party, and haC
spent the interval in huge top-COvered wire in
closure built especially to receive them, in which
they were stirred up regularly several times 4
day in order to keep their wings strong.
On the night before the day appointed for the
shoot the pheasants were released in a heavy
copse that covered about Of a little val

in the morning they were attacked there and
slaughtered by that neat, effective and ancient
method of filling the air so full of lead and
powder smoke that the birds, if from no other
cause, must have died from asphyxiation. Every
thing was done decently and in order: there
were beaters, gun bearers, picker-ups and all
kinds of other essentials and non-essentials.

HESITANCY IS PROMINEN 7
-..--.-------
Financiers Do Not Show Perfect Con-
fidence In the Market Situation,
Which Tends to Have
Bearish Effect.
HESITANCY IS PROMINENT

New York, June 4-The heavy and UNI
certain tone of the days stock market
was due more than to anything else to
the question of what is to take place as
a market influence of the anticipated
Union Pacific financing, now that that
transaction seems to be definitely con-
cluded. The extent to which market oper-
atoms have hinged this topic for many
weeks past would astonish the uniformed
observer striving to read a reflection of
current events in the daily trading at
the stock exchange. The initiation of the
earliest movement in the market from
the state of lethargy after the subsistence
of the excited conditions in connection
with the financial CRISIS last year was
almost universally attributed to the
friends of the Union Pacific property in
conjunction with wealthy spectators who
usually make that stock and a few others
the favorite mediums of their market
operations. The design of the movement
was confidently inferred to be to pave the
way for the offering of the Union Pacific
bonds by making demonstration of conf
dence to supplement the growing plenti-
tude of capital supplies as an incentive to
Investment.
The movement was believed to have
the countenance if not the active assist
ance of the banking and financial world
In general, whose needs were parallel to
those of the Union Pacific. The market
movement as a whole, however, has
moved in close sympathy with Union
Pacific throughout. The sharp reaction
which eliminated last week followed the
raising off doubts over the success OIL
the Union Pacific financing and strong
rebound began with the early limitations
that the project was to go through. With
this influence the market seemingly
eliminated, it is not surprising that the
trading element in the market should
