market displayed moderate strength dur
ing the first few minutes of trading to-
day. but prices soon settled back to about
the opening level, which was a shade
lower to Nc above the final figures of the
previous session. Argentine news was
again of bullish nature, but foreign
grain markets showed little response to
the fresh reports of damage by frost to
the wheat crop in the South American
country. This tended to restrain bullish
enthusiasm here. The December delivery
was quite erratic, due partly to talk of an
impending squeeze" in that option at
Minneapolis. After opening at Ito to
1.10A, the price of December advanced to
1.101s, but soon dropped back to 1.097s

Corn was strong early in the day and
prices advanced about ! cent, compared

mission houses in general were active bid

reports from Argentina, light receipts and

tors. The May delivery opened un-

advanced to 631s within the first hour.
A bulge Of nearly l cent in the Deem
Der delivery was the feature of trading in
the oats market. The upturn was due to
urgent demand by cash interests. The
strength OF the current month impaired
firmness to the distant deliveries. The

corn. May opened unchanged to NC high

mand. based on continued light receipts

NEW YORK, December 1O.-Under the
influence OF yesterdays improvement and
the stimulus furnished by early advances
In the London market this morning,
which were followed up by moderate pur-
chases for foreign account, the stock mar
ket opened strong and actively with
good deal Of breadth to the trading.
Standard railroad stocks were again the
leaders but the industrial quarter was
we'll represented by American Smelling
and United States Steel. A large num-
Der of stocks sold ex-dividend at the open
ing, and New York Central was quoted
ex-rights as well.
The manner in which most OF these is
sues started out as though to recover the
disbursements seemed to testify to the
markets underlying strength, con-
clusion which was emphasized by the ag-
gressive vigor which dividend paying rail-
road issues like Union Pacific, Southern
Pacific St Paul. Northern Pacific ana
Pennsylvania displayed.
There was nothing in the mornings news
nor early afternoon developments calcu-
lated to affect sentiment or the price
movement one way or the other. more or
less elaborate forecasts of President
Taft's recommendation on the subject OF
interstate commerce and antitrust law
amendment were published. but as these
views are toieraDiy 1amlllar their EepctI-
ton attracted no attention.
The report of the copper producers as
ISOLATION was rather inconclusive. 1t
showed a decrease in copper stocks dur
ing November of about 100000 pounds.
Many Rumors.
For lack of fear news, no doubt, the
stock market was freely supplied with
rumors, one Of which revived the old re-
port of a project to merge the Norfolk
and Western with the Pittsburg. Cincin-
matt. Chicago and st. Louis The coin
cident strength OF the stocks of both of
these roads was probably responsible for
the "reminiscences. although 1t Is not alto
gether wise nthese days to be skeptical
about the readjustments of railroad rela-
tons which may be mooted from time to
time in Wall street gossip.
One very definite rumor did have an eX-
tensive stock market effect. Toward the
end Of the first hour, when the list was
still active and strong. despite the weight
of profit-taking sales, it was said on the
floor that some important court decision
was coming out today in some govern
ment proceedings against the Reading.
The immediate consequence was a decline
in the price OF this stock and an all
around reaction.

MRS. MYERS PARDoNED
Attention Called to Famous Case Tried
Last December-Fouhd Guilty Of Ar
son, But Appeal Was Taken, and
Woman Never Went to Prison.

Special to Times-Republican
Mt. Pleasant, Aug. 2.-The pardon
of Mrs. Anna Myers by Governor Car
roll. announced yesterday, has recalled
attention to this famous case which
was tried last December. Mrs. Myers
crime was the attempted burning Of the
home and family of her step-daughter,
Mrs. Levesay. near Winfield, as they
slept one night over a year ago She
started the fire in the house, but .NIr.
Levesay, sleeping upstairs, was awak-
ened, and detecting the odor, extin-
guished the flames before serious dam
age was done. AT first, Mrs. Myers
steadfactly denied her guilt, but later
made partial confession. Feeling
against her in the neighborhood was
intense, but evidences of insanity be-
gan to multiply. She was taken before
the board of insane commissioners, but
after a careful investigation that body
declined to commit her to the hospital
At the trial, a number Of experts gave
testimony, and as usual, they could not
agree upon the probable state of her
mind at the time Of the crime. After
struggling for twentyfour hours with
the case, and taking many ballots, the
jury finally returned verdict of gull
ty. and Judge Smyth, of Burlington,
sentenced Mrs. Myers to the peniten-
tiary for life.
Following the trial, Mrs. Myers at
torneys, w. f. Kopp, of this city. Frank

SPEAKER TO ANNOUNCE IMPORT.
ANT COMMITTEE ASSIGN.
MENTs DURING WEEK. ~
INSURGENTS NEEDN'T APPLY =,
FOR PLACES OF HONOR
Probably There Will be Dissatisfaction
Among the Faithful, as There Arc
More Aspirants Than Charm ships
insurgents to be Disciplined For
Not Being Regular" i

Washington, Aug. g. A choice SEE
lection OF committee assignments is to
be handed out by Speaker Cannon this
week. 1t IS impossible to verify this
statement by anything that Ia said by
those prominently" mentioned for cer-
tain chairmanships, but the fact re-
mains that faithful service and fdelity
to the speaker and the republican ''reg-
uiars probably Is to be rewarded be-
fore the special session adjourns.
1t is not likely that there will bs
amy time for speeches as to the merits
of the speakers assignments, but this
does not indicate that the members OF
the house are not personally more in
terested In Uncle Joes' program than
they have been in tine tariff. When
certain republicans waged war on tho
rules which the regulars" wanted
adopted at the beginning of tho extra
session. they wtiu fully fully aware t1sut IL IL
they lost their fight they would not be-
likely to get choice berths on commit
tees. Therefore these Insurgents" will
not be disappointed. but there are q
number OF regulars" who will of nee
essity be considerably grieved, as there
is relatively a small limit to the num-
ber OF chairmanships to be dealt out
by the speaker.
A Monentous Task.
The task of appointing committees Is
a monentous one for Cannon. because
there are quite a number of members
who are expected to be disciplined"
and large number whose adherence to
the regulars must be given recogni-
ton. In addition the fight on rules Is
by no means dead, but only temporarily
quiescent, as 1t is we'll und rstood that
1t Is TO be resumed during the present
congress.

GREAT DEMONSTRATION AR
RANGED IN HONOR OF EN-.
PERoR OF RUSSIA.
CHAIN is STRENGTHENED
IN TRIPLE ALLIANCE
No Opportunity Given for Britons TO
Express DisapprovaI Of Visit Of
Hated Ruler Of tho Russians-Great
Naval Demonstration as Protection
to Nicholas Royal Person.

Cowes, Aug. 2.-The Russian imperial
yacht STANDARD, having on board the
emperor and empress, anchored on the
roadsted early today. Their majesties
were given an official welcome even
more imposing than usually attends
such important occasions. Not only
were King Edward. Queen Alexandra
and q large gathering of other mem
bers of the royal family present to
greet their guests, but $50 ships, the
pick of the British war fleet, encircled
the anchorage allotted to the STANDARD.
The presence of the British foreign
secretary, Grey; H. Iswelsky, Russian
minister of foreign affairs, and Count
Won Benckendorff, Russian ambassador
TO Great Britain, further emphasized
the significance attached in the diplo-
matte world to this visit of the Russian
emperor to England.
Design in the Demonstration.
The unusual welcome was arranged
aesis!,edly for the double purpose of
helping strengthen the links in the
chain binding Great Britain, France
and Russia in a triple entente and to
dissipate any Ill feeling engendered by
the harsh denunciation Of Emperor
Nicholas and his methods so frequent
ly vented by the members Of the labor
party both in and out of parliament
The function, however, was distinctly
official in character, and so strongly
were the immediate participants and
spectators entrenched behind the cor
don of steel walls that there was no
chance for popular demonstration
either for or against the emperor.

campaign for a pardon. Strange to
say. the sentiment of the people of
Winfield toward Mrs. Myers had
changed. and the petition was very
generally signed. A strong case was
presented to the governor, and he has
pardoned the woman on condition that
she leave the state, which the family
is preparing to do.
Mrs. Myers was not taken to prison
at all. her case having been appealed.
1t was not necessary for the governor
to refer the case to the parole board,
since the application was for q. condi-
tional pardon.

1t is feared that some Of the insurance
companies will fail as a result of the
heavy losses they will have to pay.
The conf1agration lasted more than
twenty five hours and today the burned
section presents deplorable sight.
The streets Of the city are very narrow
and the houses were mostly of wood
construction. Under a strong breeze,
therefore, the buildings were easy prey
for the flames, which jumped from one
to another with great rapidity. Once
hope was almost abandoned that the
conf1agration could be arrested. The
firemen fought valiantly against the
odds of lack of water and high wind
and many Of them fell unconscious
while working bravely at their posts.
Had not the water supply been cur
tailed by the existing drought it is be-
lieved the fire would have been
quenched without great damage.
