STOCK MARKET REVIEW.
Dealings Confined largely 10 Closing
 Contracts for Three Day Holiday.

New York, Sept. i.-The stock mar ket was affected as usual by the im- minence of a three-day holiday. Deal ings were confined largely to the clos ing up of contracts by the traders, who are averse to the risk of long period in which stocks cannot be dealt in, while some sudden event might change the speculative situation. It became manifest that, in the decline of yesterday, traders had operated with some freedom on the short side. The demand which advanced prices today was attributed to covering operations from that source. Not only the stock exchanges, but the commercial ex- changes generally are to be closed in this country tomorrow as an extension of the Labor day holiday on Monday. The days dullness was the result For eign markets gave evidence of a sub sidence of the uneasiness caused by the Moroccan situation Preliminary esli- mates of the weeks currency move ment indicated falling off in ship ments to New York, but not yet sui icent to turn the tide of the move ment in favor of the interior. The large surplus held by the New York banks leaves the subject of little ln- terest from the banking standpoint The sluggish demand from the inferior for currency tends to confirm doubts of the rate of business recovery. The commodities markets were dull and featureless under the influence of the approaching holiday and no important deductions were drawn from them of the progress of the crops Copper war rants declined in London without af- fecting the recovery li the prices of copper industrials. The |. S. Steel stocks developed strength when 1t be- came known that J Perpont Morgan had come to his office for the first time after his return from abroad yester- day This gave a late upward impetus to prices.

PAVING BOARD TO PAY.
Corporation Counsel Settles Intcr-De-
 partmcnt Debate,

Corporation Counsel Rogers yester- day submitted an opinion to Director of Public Works Foley. on the contro- versy between the department of pub Nc works and the paving commission, on which shall pay the bills for changes In curbing, sewer manholes, etc, in the streets that are being per manently paved. In his opinion, Mir. Rogers says that for all changes, ex- cept possibly the removal of trees, t1e expense should be met by the fund of the paving commission. which has the sole control. and say. under the char ter, and not by the department of pub lie works, which Is confessedly with out power.
 The opinion followed the furore that was created at the paving com mission a week ago, when Secretary Caplan of the board reported that the commission had paid out over sf.000. for raising sewer manholes changing curhs and hydrants. and other matters along streets that were being paved. The commission talked it over and was of the opinion that these items should have been paid for by the de- partment of public works, but took no action.

In such event total of 2,600, 900 bushels was predicted But since September fur ther damage by drought in the states mentioned has occurred.

Sleuth's Dream Came True.
Veteran Secret Service Man of the Indiana District Tells How He
Was Once Aroused From Sleep to Capture Murderer.

Is it possible to dream things that
are hidden from the brain in waking
hours?
The question is we'll worthy Of con-
stderation, for probably every human
being has had dream which has
"come true" or which has been 50 re-
markable in its revelation as to arouse
the question just asked
Scientists and psychologists have puz-
zled for ages over examples of mystic
riOus psychic power. and every new
example remains as much puzzle as
the first one.
Though he does not claim to possess
any psychic power, Captain Tom Halls,
United States secret service chief of
the Indiana district, has reason to be-
lieve that dreams sometimes work out
IN real life with remarkable accuracy.
In fact the study of the psychological
phenomena of dreams may be said to
be the veteran sleuth's only hobby. AS
one of the ten oldest secret service
men In the country he has trailed GRIM
inalS of all sorts for almost half cen
fury, and more than once his dreams
have aided him in capturing the man
he was after.
Captain Halls is not an imaginativ e

make any use of his strange powers
other than to heed their warnings as
they came along at unexpected inter-
walls.

Halls arrested the man she described,

had happened just exactly as the wo-

ordinary tension and supplies the user
with volume of expanded air which
may be further regulated by means Of
a so called regulating valve, supplying
greater or less volume, according to
respiratory needs. This reducer re-

the reduction of pressure and of the
approaching exhaustion of the com
pressed air supply. The moment when
this warning shall be given may be
