Distrust Based on Heights to Which
Prices Have Been Boosted
Stocks Closed Lower.

New York, Sept 2.-~The tone o.
speculation in stocks today showed
distrust and hesitation The feeling
was based on the heights to which
prices have been carried already and
found expression in refraining from
further buying and bidding up OF
stocks, more than in any active at,
tempts to get them lower The re-
dundant state Of the money market
while constituting the mainstay Of the
Speculative position on the long side
lof stocks, is matter for suspicion of
the tagging commodities aud mer.
chandise markets. The absence of
the usual seasonable demand from the
interior for funds is the subject of
growing remark
New York Exchange at Chicago fell
last week TO 35 cents discount, and
this was supposed to pottend the
coming movement of funds from New
York to the interior markets for crop
movement, and the fall retail distrib
ution now at Chicago has risen to
par on the small discount again
There is some trace Of an inward cur
rency movement discernible in the
operations at New York |
by receipts of drafts ON their New
York correspondents from interior
banks for payment to the government |
Of internal revenue obligations
Money on call is almost drug in |
the market and the scanty supplies !
os desirable commercial paper are
eagerly sought for investment The
railroad mortgage market is affected
N the same way. The price of cop
per was marked down at the New
York metal exchange ami this, with
he poor showing Of the annual re
lor fthe American Smelling and
Refining Company, made copper
shares vulnerable to the pressure. The
eXclusiyeness of the de
nand to Hartman stocks, with neg
ect of the general list. was a source
If dissatisfaction to those long OF
With some violence and the Wifbie

, what man mas TCnc, u,an can DO,
ran swiftly through Williston's brain,
and with no idea of abandoning his
search until he had probed the mys-
terry, he mounted and rode northward,
closely examining the edge of the
precipice as he went along for any
evidence of q possible descent. Pres
entity he came upon a cross ravine, de-
void of shrubbery, too steep for a
horse, but presenting possibilities for
a man. With unerring instinct he fol-
lowed the cross-cut westward. Soon
a scattering of scrub oaks began to
appear, and sumach already streaked
with crimson. A little farther and the
trees began to show spiral wreaths Of
woodbine and wild grape. Yet little
farther, and doubtless there would be
outlet for horse as well as man.
But Williston was growing impa-
tient Besides, the thought came to
him that he had best not risk his
buckskin to the unknown dangers of
an untried trail. What if he should go
lame? Accordingly he was left behind
in slight depression where he
would be pretty well hidden, and Will
liston scrambled down the steep in
cline alone. When foothold or hand
hold was lacking, he simply let him
self go and slid, grasping the first root
or branch that presented itself in his
daredevil course.
Arrived at the bottom, he found his
clothes torn and his hands bleeding;
but that was nothing. With grim de-
termination he made his way through
the ravine and struck across the sand
trail with a sure realization of his
danger, but without the least abate-
ment of his resolution. The sand was
firm under his feet. The water had
receded a sufficient length of time be-
fore to make the thought of quick
sands an idle fear. No puff of cloudy
smoke leaped from rifle barrel. If,
as he more than half suspected, the
island was a rendezvous for cattle
thieves, place surely admirably fit
ted by nature for such unlawful oper-
ations, the rustlers We're either over
confident of the inaccessibility of their
retreat and kept no lookout, or they
were insolently Indifferent to expos
ure. The former premise was the
more likely. A light breeze, born of
the afterglow, came scurrying down
the river bed. Here and there, where
the sand was finest and driest, it rose
in little whirlwinds. No sound broke
the stiffness of the summer evening
What was that? Coyotes barking
over yonder across the river? That
The Glenwood post., 1908-01-25

alien sound. A mans laugh, curse, a
heart-breaking below of pain. Willis
ton parted ever so slightly the thick
foliage of underbrush that separated
him from the all to familiar sounds
and peered within.
In the midst of a small clearing
man-made, for several stumps were
scattered here and there-two men
were engaged in unroping and releas-
ing red steer, similar in all essential
respects to a bunch of three or four
huddled together little to one side.
They were all choice, wellfed animals,
but there We're thousands of Just such
beasts herding on the free ranges.
He owned red steers like those, but
was there man in the cattle country
who did not? They were impossible
of Identification without the aid of
their brand, and it happened that
they were so punched as to completely
battle Williston in his eager efforts
to decipher the stamp that would dis
close their ownership. That they were
the illegitimate prey of cattle rust
lers, he never for one moment doubt
ed. The situation was conclusive. A
bed of glowing embers constantly re-
plenished and kept at white heat
served to tighten up the weird scene
growing dusky under the surrounding
cottonwoods.
Williston thought he recognized in
one of the men-the one who seemed
to be directing the procedure of this
little affair, whose wide and dirty hat
rim was so tantalizingly drawn over
his eyes-the solitary rider whose un-
expected appearance had so startled
him a short time before. Both he and
his companion were dressed after the
rough, nondescript manner Of cattle
men, both were gay, laughing and
talkative, and seemingly as oblivious
to possible danger as II engaged in the
most innocent and legitimate business.
A little to the left and standing
alone was an odd creature of most
striking appearance large, spotted
steer with long. peculiar-looking horns.
1t was quite impossible to mistake such
possession II it had once been yours.
Its right side was turned full toward
Williston and in the center of the hip
stood out distinctly the cleanly eau
terized three perpendicular lines that
were the Identifying mark Of the
Three Bars ranch, one of those same
