SAN FRANCISCO QUOTATIONS

Exclusive disptach to The Herald by L. A.
Clisler & Co., members Los Angeles-Nevada
Mining stock exchange, S05 San Fernando
building, Los Angeles
SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 10.-There was a
strong undertone to the mining market today
although no material gains were noted. Daisy
opened with sales at S3c, dropped to Sic and re-
Powered at the close to the opening figure.
Florence, Goldfleld Consolidated, Fraction and
Jumbo Extension were strong at yesterday s
quotations.
T. g. Lockhart, president Of the Jumbo Ex-
tension, has issued letter to stockholders ex-
planning the litigation between that company
and the Goldheld Consolidated over the apex
rights to different veins Of ore, accompanied
by a map of the disputed territory. Subsequent
events, the letter states, has proved the wis
dom of the settlement on the part of the
Jumbo Extension company. The vein of ore
already exposed in the Gold Wedge, which was
in dispute, viz the Mohawk Jumbo Lease
company's ore shoot, has proved disappointing
in the value of the mined since work was
resumed, md the royalties would not have
gone far toward paying the heavy expenses
Of litigation, Moreover, one of the several rich
shoots of oreNdscovered in the north end of
the Red Top by the Consolidated Red Hop
ron. passes into the Vinegerone claim. BY the
terms Of the settlement the Jumbo Extension
gets one-half of the net proceeds from this
ore whereas the Merger would have 1t all.
The settlement is equally good for the Con-
solidated, relieving it OF the heavy expense in
volved and adding the Wedge claim to the
company's estate.
Following were the closing quotations to-
..a4ta- ,,,ifh the reRtlar call sales.

NAUGHTY BURGLAR
TICKLES PINK FEET
PiTTSBURG WOMEN TERRoRIzEp
BY QUEER MARAUDER
Is Not Above Theft, but Most Enjoys
Tickling Feet of His Feminine
Victims as They
Sleep

PITTSBURG, Oct. 10.-"Billy, wake
up! Somebody is pulling my leglr said
pretty Mrs. William Falck of Mcclure
and Kleber avenues, about o'clock
this morning, as she lay In bed and
pounded her sleeping spouse with her
fist.
go to sleep again. You're dream
ing, said the husband, who Is head
clerk in the department of highways
and sewers of the north side, and who
is sound sleeper. But Mrs. Falck was
too wide awake to go to sleep again,
| ana as she lay awake she soon saw a
| mans hand come through the window
! again and felt it tug at the bedclothes
| once one. She screamed and rolled her
| husband out of bed to get him awake,
and 4Falck finally got to the window in
| time to take a shot at the man as he
flew over the back fence. There was a
| ladder Gaming against tie house, and
the burglar had taken with him long
handled rake, with which he evidently
intended to hook clothing from the in
side of room as he stood on the lad
der outside the indow.
1t was evident that he had been tug
ging at the bedclotl-ing in order to see
II the occupants We're sound sleepers,
but Mrs. Falck yet declares that the
intruder first tickled the soles of her
feet, then later grabbed Ler by the
ankle. The woman tainted after the
burglar had gone.
Falck reported the matter to the po-
lice and then came out a weird and
wonderful succession of complaints
from different parts of the north side.
1t appears that for more than one
month now complaints have been reg
istered daily by women that someone
had entered their rooms in the night and
awakened them by tickling the soles of
their feet In some cases this "Jack
the Ticker took nothing from the
house, but in most cases he had already
cleaned up pretty nearly everything
tl-at he could carry and as a farewell
he could not resist the temptation to
tickle the soles of the pretty pink feet
which were perhaps peeping from un-
der the coverlet.
The police department says it has not
made public half the reports of this
nature which have come to them re-
garding this Jack the Ticker" be-
cause the ladies who had been tickled
begged them not to, but so terrified
have some of the women become that
they are now 81 ,ping with revolvers
under their pillows.
Instructions have been sent from
headquarters for the entire police force
to watch for anyone that looks like
their description of Jack the Ticker"
This morning was evidently the Sec
ond trip of this unique person to the
home of Mr.. Falck, as some time since
his trousers were stolen from the bed
post while he slept and found next
morning five squares away. Jack the
Ticker had evidently fished them out
of the window with his rake.

NEW YORK ORANGE MARKET
MOVES GENERALLY UPWARD

Victor L. Zorn, fruit broker, New York,
says gratifying change was noted In the
market for California Valencia Lates this
week AT every sale the demand was active
and the tendency of prices generally upward.
AS compared with last week the average prices
were about Csc per box higher. The improve
ment is thought to be due chiefly to IA
vorable change In the weather. Some Of the
averages on Thursday and Friday were as fol-
lows Stag, 81. 40; Pointer sS42; Victoria, sS.69;
Sweetheart, So. So; Duarte, So 55 and s3.1s; Old
Mission, $751; and $4.7S; Golden Eagle, 1882;
Blue Globe. $3Ss; Red c. s2.6S; Legal Tender,
s3.45. The sales aggregated thirty cars. as
against sixteen in the corresponding week last
year. About 900 boxes Mexican oranges were
sold at prices ranging from $22 down to s1lb
Porto Ricos, of which some 1900 boxes were
Sold scaled downward from $3.50 to 65c These
varieties were generally green and immature
and some lots of the Porto Ricos were very
wasty. The shipments from California from
September "a to 80 were 5S cars, as compared
with 20 cars in the corresponding week last
year and 80 cars in 1905 and 4S cars in 1905

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK, Oct. 1O.-The dull and slug
gish stock market today Indicated that the
speculative element was little inclined to
tale chances on what might occur over Sum
day in the innammable state of affairs in
southwestern Europe There was some relaxa-
tion of the tension on that account, but this
was owing partly to the fact that business
for the day was over in London before It be-
gan here. New York thus deprived OF
its most reliable barometer OF foreign politicai
developments.

ration. showed n decidedly more tranquI tone

NJ BRIDE LETTER
DID NOT COME
Has Not Written the Letter
the Governor Cabled
About.

The letter from Private Secretary
Mcbride, for which Governor Frear
cabled the Acting Governor and the
fleet committee to wait, did not arrive
yesterday as it was expected it would.
A letter TO the Acting Governor from
Mcbride did arrive, but it had very
little in it regarding the fleet, and
nothing at all of what was expected.
1t was a very short letter and stated
that Mcbride had not yet been able
TO see anyone except Mayor Taylor and
former Mayor Phelan in regard to feet
matters.
The Acting Governor also received
DETER from Governor F'rear in which
the latter reiterated what he said in
his Ego slow cable message. The Gov
ernor's letter was written May 8, the
day he and Mrs. Frear left for the
east McBrides letter was written
May 6, so that he had evidently been
unable to get the matter by that time
that the Governor expected him to, or
at least had not at that time written
the letter the Governor expected him to.
The Governor in his letter said that
Mrs. Frear had not been very we'll.
They had been through the redwoods
with Mr.. and Mrs. William Kent of
Chicago who were here during the win
ter.

MOVING PICTURES
At THE OPERA HOUSE

| If there can be anything more nat
ural or more exciting than the NOV
+ ing pictures shown at the Opera House
at rehearsal Tuesday night, for the
good of humanity let them be shown.
/ There is a lot of instruction in these
particular pictures and heaps of fun,
for the humorous pictures are both
funny and clean. The selection made
| by the management of this company
is suited to the tastes of a refined au-
dience. THE troubles of q King" are
set forth on the streets of Paris and
as he and his suite tramp the city,
eating candles aud showing a willing
ness to chew the ear off a baby, the
crowd wells. He passes the Zoo and
there is to be seen the big elephants
nervously walking in their cages and
begging peanuts. There is nothing
stacy about it and the elephant is the
real thing. The police dogs of Paris,
the plain clothes man of London and
the mountain trailers of Switzerland
are shown to realistic advantage. Miss
Clifton is singer with a sweet voice
and her songs are good. The screens
illustrating them could hardly be bet
ter colored nor could the flowers in
the fields be more real unless they were
plucked fresh from their stems. The
first entertainment will be given at the
Hawaiian Opera House at 500 o'clock
this evening. The tickets are fifteen
cents for the gallery, twenty-five for
the balcony, fifty cents parquet and
dress circle and seventy-five cents for
seats in boxes. For sale at Wall,
