During the afternoon the market recover

against that corporation. hear that
there is likely to be some activity at the
National Capitol against this particular
corporation. IN the afteTnool the mar
ket underwent some improvement on M
mOrs that a well-known banking house
had bought control of the Equitable Life.
This Improvement became more marked
on the announcement that there had been
large blocks of time money loaned for
six months at per cent on good mixed
collateral. ] feel that the short interest
disclosed and undisclosed is large. The
main reason for adhering TO the long side
% the market Is that stocks are selling
below their real value"
G.. Bowie Chapman. of E. F. Hutton &
Co.-"Some shaking out occurred in
stocks this morning. which threw a
damper over the professional bulls, and
some liquidation occurred in the forenoon.
The room traders were inclined 10 be
bearish. and sold stocks following the
early morning prices. which were heavy;
also the selling in SHELTERS and Copper.
which appeared 10 have poor support.
The market recovered check by the
noon hour, and evidences were at hand
that the recent market leaders would be
put higher again. Northern Pacific, Great
Northern, Union Pacific. and Reading
were taken in hand and marked up
sharply, creating a generally strong un-
dertone through the entire list. Prelimin-
airy figures on the bank statement showed
an increase of cash by the banks of about
100000. which viii make an excellent

THE reaction in evidence yesterday was

action was in order. The market. how
ever, recovered and showed decided
strength prices closing at a substantial

stocks during the morning stimulated the
entire list. There was little news. and

New York, Jan. 17.-Irregularity and

Iopening figures. therefore, but were ne
gotiated later at lower prices, for the
most part below per cent.
Time Money Rates Low.
Time money sank to per cent. with
strong indications that lower rates stil
would be touched next week. The truth
was, in "a word that the bottom seemed to
be dropping out of the money market.
and the common prophecy was that a
1 per cent rate for call money and a
Sl5 per cent rate for time money. was
among the nearby probabilities. These
interesting calculations were based 20
some extent upon estimates Of to-mor-
rows bank statement. which, on the

Hn increase OF bank cash for the week
between 100000 and Sl1.000000.
As II said that this gain is likely TO
be further enlarged by redeposits or
boarded money, and that bank loans have
also been reduced during the week, despite
the Wall street speculation for the adj
vance, there We're to-day those who pre-
dicted that to-morrow's bank return
would show an increase Of over $1,000 900

that this statement was likely to be by

Governor Curry on the Tax Rate

Governor Curry has addressed
letters to the boards of county
commissioners Of the territory with
reference to the rate Of taxation in
the territory. In view of the fact
that there has been a good deal Of
talk about the high rate of taxa
ton, the governor has addressed a
letter to the boards of county COM
missioners with a view to having
the assessed valuation OF the pro-
perty in the territory increased.
The letter is as follows:
desire to call your special at
tention to a subject which caused
much unfavorable criticism Of our
territory, especially as compared
with our sister territory of Arizona
where the tax rate is much lower
than it is with us and the assessed
valuation much higher, a condition
brought about by low valuation
placed on all classes of property
for assessment purposes, which is
estimated by the travelling auditor
to be about 20 per cent of the
actual value.
If possible this condition should
be changed and the valuation gra-
dually increased and the rate of
taxation reduced. Most of the
counties have placed their proper
ties at as low a value as possible,
as they did not desire to pay any
more than they could help of the
territorial tax. 1t is true that, al
though the assessments have been
raised each year, the rate until the
last couple of years continued to
increase until it reached 1851 mills.
This has been reduced to the pres
ent rate Of ID mills, and after a
conversation with the auditor and
treasurer | find that we will be able
to further reduce the rate to not
exceed IS mills and possibly I2K
mills. 1t will be my constant aim
to endevor to have the rate of tax
alton reduced until it does not ex-
coed sever or eight mills on the
dollar.
1t the county commissioner of
the various counties will insist
on a thorough assessment of their
respective counties and a reacop-
able increase of valuation, | think
they can reduce the county rate.
OF course know that no radical
change can be made for the pre-
sent year as the territorial board Of
equalization has net and the val
uations have been fixed, but with
a thorough assessment and a small
increase in valuations | think that
the assessed valuation of the terri
tory will exceed 500, 900, 900, and

FROM THE PINE WOODS
HyomeiS Aromatic Air is Guar
dnteed to Cure Catarrh.

When using the Hyomei treatment
for the cure of catarrh, the air you
breathe is like that on the mountains
high above the sea level, where the
pine woods fill the air with aromatic
healing that gives health and strength
to those suffering from diseases of the
respiratory organs. The healing
balsams of Hyomei reach the most re-
mote air cells of the throat, nose and
lungs, destroying all catarrhal germs
and giving quick relief and cure.
Hyomei has performed almost miracu-
lous cures of catarrh, often restoring
health in chronic cases that had given
up all hope of recovery.
At the first symptom of catarrhal
trouble use Hyomei and see how quickly
you get relief and cure. The complete
outfit costs but one dollar, and is sold
by L. p. Van Werden under guarantee
to refund the money if it does not give
satisfaction.
