LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The market at the meeting today of
the stock exchange showed no change
from what has been it's character for
some days past. There was so little buy
ing and selling. especially the former. as
to make It almost possible to say there
is no market. 1t is expected that an
Improvement will be shown in the near
future. although exactly why is not def
nitely explained. Perhaps it is sufficient
to say that is the way the sentiment runs.
and as the latter is at times the principal
factor in market activity, and this is one
of the times. it may be concluded that
the very best ground for a belief in a
revfving market has been given.
1t may not sound very polite to say
that the adjournment Of Congress would
he a help toward n return in confidence
on the part of investors. but that seems
to be an opinion very generally held It
may be concluded that those who speak
thus of the chief legislature OF the coun-
try are not unmindful of the good things
that have been done for them by that
body and It's patriotic capabilities At
the same time the possibilities OF what
laws might be passed or what might be
said or done that would prove injurious
TO business interests are such that for
the latter consideration mainly. an ad-
journment of Congress would be well
coined.
stock OF one of the local fire insurance
companies. it having been sent soaring
to lately unoccupied heights. the situa-
ton in this city in regard to insurance
is being more or less discussed. It is
stated that there Is a favorable prospect
of forming now organization of insur-
ance men which will take the place of
the board of fire underwriters. Such a
body as is now in course OF formation. is
to be composed of agents. 1t is supposed
the same schedule Of rates adopte ed by the
present hoard will be continued and that
the management will be the same as at
present.
The only change will he in the per-
sonnet of the control. The members will
be the agents of the various companies
doing business in this city. instead Of the
special agents known as the middle de-
partmcnt. I, is the opinion of some of
the men in this line Of business that one
of the difficulties in maintaining an or
ganiZation--and that is only another way
of saying uniform rates-is that there is
such II large number of men here who arc
agents.
IT Is more difficult to maintain dts
cipline. il is claimed among such num-
Der than it is when the representatives
are fewer. and for that reason any or
ganization here under the former condi-
ton carries with it. the seeds of Weakness
which are liable TO develop most any time
and result in its destruction.

he will not be able to perform the cler-
ical duties of the office, but his wife
is bright and familiar with figures, and
she is ready to attend to the real
work of the office.
Mr.. Sandusky is a barytone singer,
and when attending political meetings
or rallies he sings instead of making
speeches. He has become popular be.
cause of his strangely sweet voice.
At one night meeting the lights went
out, but he did not know it, and kept
on with his song.
Mrs. Sandusky accompanies her hus.
band on his campaigning tour and
guides him about from place to place.
They make no secret Of the manner in
which the office is to be run, but
pledge themselves that the duties will
be faithfully performed.
Mr.. Sandusky was born in Sullivan
Ind, 80 years ago. The greater part
of his life has been passed in Mis-
souri,. For some time he titled
large farm northwest of Macon. One
day he suffered a sunstroke. He re
covered the use Of his body, but he
has not been able to see since.
