NEW YORK, October 10.-During the
greater part of todays short business
session upon the stock exchange the tone
of the stock market was strong, although
all the time price movements were char
acterized by a considerable degree Of ir-
regularity.
Operations here for foreign account.
while again upon the selling side. were
upon a much smaller scale than that con-
Quoted earlier in the week. and II seemed
to be considered that the bulk Of the SELL
ing of this description had been practical
1y concluded. This mornings advices
with respect to the situation in the Bal
kans were neither striking nor particu-
larly significant. The London stock mar
ket enjoyed, however. quite a vigorous
rally in all OF its various departments.
The most important contributions to the
local financial situation were furnished by
the weekly reports of the mercantile agen-
cies upon the state OF the cOuntry's trade,
these being more definitely encouraging
than has been the case for some time.
The Bank Statement.
The preliminary forecasts OF the weekly
bank statement suggested that an unex-
pectedly large decrease in reserves might
be reported. but this prospect seemed to
cut little figure In the days speculation.
The strongest features OF the stock mar
ket, although no definite reasons accom-
panied their course, were Chesapeake and
Ohio, Union and Southern Pacific, Cana
dian Pacific. American Smelling National
Lead and Consolidated Gas. The trans
actions We're in fairly large volume, but
Were, nevertheless, restricted to some ex-
tent by the uncertainty with regard TO
the possible developments in the Euro
pean political situation over Sunday.

The people of this part of
the country were permitted to
witness novel sight last Sun
day evening. The day had been
unusually warm and about four
o'clock a wind storm came up
from the west. AS the heavy
clouds passed north from town
a young cyclone, a regular
Oklahoma twister, and coming
to the ground at the Griffin
farm in Cooper township, did
considerable damage to out
buildings which it passed. It
proceeded quite slowly and
covered a space of only a few
rods in width. Itproceeded on
for several miles in a southeast
erly direction but did not come
in contact with any farm build
ings, so far as learned. 1t was
plainly visible from town and
for miles around in every d.
rection, and was an interesting
sight. Mapleton Press.

Two Council Bluffs Young
Women Are Arrested=-
Also Two Men

Also Two Men
AS the result of two girls
running away from their homes
in Council Bluffs, two men
were arrested in Omaha We'd
nesday night. There is a strong
likelihood that the girls will be
sent to the Iowa state reform
atory at Mitchellville. The
two men are Jack Rich and
Frank Gray, alias Reddy Gray,
both from Missouri Valley, and
the girls are Mable Thompson,
aged 16 years, and Mamie
Strang, aged IA.
The two girls had become dis
satisfied with their homes for
some reason, and a few nights
ago disappeared. They were
traced by relatives to a hotel in
Council Bluffs, where they had
remained over night. From
there they went to Missouri
Valley and were next heard
from through a complaint filed
by them with the city author
tiles of Missouri Valley and
with the county authorities of
Harrison county at Logan,
charging the two men with
assault. The two men are 90
and % years of age.
A deputy sheriff was sent
from Council Bluffs to Mis-
souri, Valley to bring the girls
back home, and they were taken
to Omaha Thursday to Identify
the men as the two whom they
say committed the assault upon
them.
Both the girls were charged
with incorrigibility in the juve-
nile court and their cases will
be held Saturday morning be-
fore Judge Wheeler. The COM
plant against Mabel Thompson
was filed by her mother, Mrs.
Emma Thompson, of 215 Frank
lin avenue, while that against
Mamie Strang was filed by her
sister, Miss Sadie Strang, of
Fifth avenue and Fourth
streets. World-Herald.

Two Men Killed iii Wreck

Pierre, S. D., July 16. Two
men were killed in a wreck in
the Northwestern yards here
early this morning. About
o'clock a yard engine was
backing down to the rour d
house and ran into a double
head freight coming in from
the east. The engines collided,
telescoping the cab of the head
engine on the freight, almost
instantly killing Clyde Barrett,
of Huron, the fireman, and
smashing one leg and one arm,
besides scalding the engineer,
E. L. Weaver, also of Huron,
so badly that he died a few
hours later at the hospital
where he was taken. The acct
dent occurred inside the yards,
and it is claimed was caused by
the freight running in without
Stacking speed.

Vile Postal Causes Arrest

That funny postcard which
Alva Alexander, a youth of
Modale, addressed to a girl at
Mondamin, Ia, and dropped
into the postoffice has caused
him already much trouble.
After his interview with the
federal grand jury in Septem-
Der, there is promise of more
yet. The young man yesterday
afternoon admitted to United
States Commissioner N. A.
Crawford that he had sent the
card in question, and the COM
missioner held him under
bonds of $500.
The postal card which Post
office Inspector j. IS. Swenson
claims was sent in violation of
the law, bears the postmark of
Modale, Ia, and was addressed
to a young lady in Mondamin,
la. Another was addressed to
a girl at Madeira, Ia, but both
of the cards were stopped at
Modale and the matter reported
to the Inspector. After a
searching investigation Inspec-
tor Swenson located the sender
and brought him to Council
Bluffs. Alexander denied the
accusation at first but later
admitted the sending of both
cards. He was put under $500
bond to await the action of the
grand jury at its next session
in September Nonpariel.
