MARKET IS BEARISH.
Financial Condition Has Depressing
Eject ON Stocks.

New York. Oct. 23.-The stock market
was weak today and money conditions
here and abroad were again advanced
as the principal reason. The opinions
of bankers continue to reflect much
diversity on the subject, the prevailing
belief being, however, that the situa-
ton abroad has been much exagger-
ated. The probability of gold exports
to Europe next week has been some
what 1essened by yesterdays late de-
clines in exchange but further exports
of gold to South America during the
next week are now certain.
On the stock exchange sentiment was
almost unanimously bearish- London
was not factor in local operations,
selling probably less than 5000 shares
on balances.
There were heavy supporting orders,
especially in United States Steel and
these orders served to arrest the de-
cline. The market showed some rally
ing by the end of the first hour Prices
broke again to a lower level half an
hour before the close Of the market.
The decline was concurrent with q
short recovery in foreign exchange, all
of yesterdays losses being regained-
There were heavy purchases Of German
marks in anticipation Of an advance of

LOOKS LIKE INVASION.
Building of New Grandstand in Chi.
cago by American Association.

Chicago, Oct. 23.-Ground will soon
be broken for new steel and cement
grandstand on the proposed American
association baseball site at Sheffield
avenue and Addison street. The prop
erty was bought last spring in the
name of Charles S. Havener, owner of
the Milwaukee American association
ball club. Mr.. Havener acted as agent
in the transaction and although being
the majority owner, other association
magnates were interested in the deal
among the rest being NJ. E. Cantillon
of the Minneapolis club and his broth
er Joe, late manager of the Washing
ton team.
Among those well posted on the af-
fairs of the association magnates it
was said yesterday that the occupancy
of the grounds does not necessarily
mean an immediate entrance of the
league in Chicago society, although
that is the ultimate object of the pro-
motors.
The real plan back of the enterprise
it was said yesterday was to bring
John Killing, the former Cub catcher,
here from Kansas City to be at the
head of a semi professional team in
which case the city league would be
reorganized or else enlarged to eight
clubs.

R0BS HIS EMPLOYER.
Express Agent Then Tells That He
Had Been Held Up.

Peoria, Ill. Oct 23-Driven by sud
den impulse to get rich quick. James
Mahan, aged rs. night agent for the
American Express company at the Un-
ion station here, originated g. fake hold
up story after robbing the company safe
of $4,000 in currency early today. After
sewing $1,000 in large bills in the lining
Of his coat sleeves. and scattering the
remainder of the loot about in obscure
places throughout the Union depot he
called for the police and declared that
he had been held up at the point of a
revolver and robbed of the money.
During his investigation of the alleg-
ed holdup Detective Wombacher had oc-
casion to grasp Mahan by the arm. The
crinkling of the bills in the coat sleeve
under the grasp of the detective led
him to suspect the perif1dy of Mahan.
With the assistance Of fellow officers,
Wombacher overpowered Mahan and
the money was recovered.
Mahan then led the officers to the
places where he had hidden the remain
ing $1,000.
Mahan admitted that he had opened
two packages, one of $4,000 and the
other of 81 900. He destroyed the wrap
rers and could not tell just where the
money was addressed to.
A state warrant was issued, charg
ing him with Enforcement.

Of late years the college has taken

is almost equally renowned for the
football team which the school turns

Quigley's Good Work
The growth OF athletics at st.
Marys dates back five or six years
when Ernest c. Quigley first took
charge of the team. Quigley was a
star on the Kansas team, and his
hundred yard dash down the field for
a touchdown settled the Missouri
Kansas Turkey day conflict in 1899.
Nobody expected Quigley to develop
into the coach which he has, but he
has earned all the victories which his
teams have won through hard and in
defatigable work with his charges,
combined with training along the
common sense lines in athletics.
With the college in a hourishing
condition, her curriculum as good as
any in the west, and her enrolment
growing year by year, st. Marys is
destined to assume more important
role in later years, in every line of
college activity, and her athletic
teams will forge right to the front
with the same pace which they have
maintained for several years past.

1t is the only seat of learning in the
Sunf1ower state whose history has al

The college was founded by a society
of Jesuits, who were almost the frs.

fathers first started their work among
the Kansas Indians in 1888, long before

was built on the present site of ST
Mary's college, in September 1S4S, and
from that time the history of this in
stitution dates. And from an Indian
school where the Pottawatomies, the
Osages, Peorias and Mianlis learned the
civilization of the white man, the
school soon grew to be a seat of learn
Ing for the white settlers of Kansas
and neighboring territories.
The school was incorporated under
the state laws of Kansas in 1869, and

that of the middle western states. The

now known as the Faculty building

Many Imposing Buildings.
In 1882 the next building-the class
room building-was erected. This was
followed nine years later bv the Junior
hall, which is now one of the best
buildings on the campus. The Infirm-
airy and Music rooms were two new
buildings added later. In 1907 one of
the most imposing edifices on the
campus-the Loyola hall-was built an !
