THE ANGLING PARSON.
Sport In Which English CIerqynnen
Are Interested.
From the London Globe.

From the London Globe
CHANGING over the various fishing re-
ports I have been impressed of late with
the large number of clergymen evho are
followers of st. Peter and St Izaak-real
enthusiasts many of them, skilled users
of fly rod and roach tackle, and ranging
from the highest dignitaries of the church
to the humb1est of curates.
My Lord Bishop here and there Yields
the salmon rod Canon So and So Is out
after sea trout, and the village parson is
endeavoring to outwit the willy club. This
season some of our clerical friends have
caught heavy baskets of trout in Scot
land, and I also hear of their successes
in salt water.
Our fishing parsons are not only numer-
Gus by the watersde, but are frequently
associated with the social side of the
sport-here one presides at an angling
dinner, there another Is elected to the
honored post OF president OF a club, and
now and then we hear of clergymen lee
turing on their favorite sport and recrea-
ton.
Certain kinds of tackle now in use have
been suggested and first designed by rev.
erend gentlemen, and everybody who is a
fly fisherman is acquainted with the fact
that that deadly fly "Greenwell's Glory
is the invention Of the veteran Canon
Greenwell of Durham Cathedral. Other
flies must have been dedicated to parsons,
for the other day I heard of a salmon
angler trying a Scarlet Cardinal" and
another feathered lure sometimes to be
found in the anglers fiybook is known as
1.-THE Priest"

Hubbard Bros. G Co.'S Letter.

New York. October 16.-(Special.) -Eu-
ropean advices were OF q disappointing
character this morning and led to profit
taking and some aggressive selling by
spot houses on the theory that the move
ment would bring about a sharp reac-
ton. A small decline ensued to meet large
buying ORDERS which absorbed these sales,
and finally closed the market firm, some
to points higher than yesterday. The
strength was due to the continued heavy
exports from the southern ports, which
are in excess of the large exports Of
last season. 1t is this buying for Eu-
ropean account which sustains the south
ern markets on almost parity with Oc-
tober deliveries here and so far has pre-
vented any more pressure. Some profit
taking was noticeable In the last few
minutes, but sharp advance is expected
in Liverpool on Monday as the Texas
movement shows decrease, which goes
far toward sustaining the short crop

points higher, near months being relative
ly easy under disappointing cables, bear
ish weekend figures and the failure OF

Influenced by renewal of southern and
western bull support, but the market soon
broke 10 points under realizing for over
the weekend and local bear pressure.

night during the middle of the morn. :.

New York October ESPECIAL. PRO
fessional Wall street was compelled to
acknowledge the strength of the bank
ing situation after the close OF the mar
ket today. The banks in their aver
age statements announced an increase of
surplus reserves amounting to $5,737, SIS
and a decrease in cash of s., 401, 900. The
actual statement, however, made up to
the close of business Of Thursday night,
showed a gain In cash of 2,470,00O and
an increase of surplus reserves of $685.
S25. The actual statement also showed
that loans began to increase the last day
of the week and deposits to increase
showing that substantial buying move
ment In the stock market was under
way.
Advance information of this statement
got around the street during the last rev
minutes of trading and the close was
very strong and active, although unoer
the best figures of the day. A seiins nao
been under way In the early hour, based
on the belief that the bank statement
would make a very bad showing, based
,1pon uncertainties In regard to the bank
statement and doubt as to the attitude
of operators responsible for the advance

rive, 2250 bales.
Futures opened steady at advance Of
3 to points on favorable cables. After
the opening the bears became aggressive
on good weather and small spinners
takings ana their selling put prices down
y TO 10 points. This decline was met by
determined buying from prominent pro-
fessional interests and during the re-
mainder of the short Saturday session the
market had very fine undertone Shorts
covered freely not only the cotton they
sold early In the day. but also lines that
had been held for some time. Toward
the close some nervousness was mani
tested over frost predictions from the At
lantics over Sunday. At the highest
prices were IA to 16 points over yester-
day. The close was very steady at net
advance of IA to Is points
Futures this week show an advance OF
a little over 81 a bale over last week,
the more active deliveries standing Al to
AZ points up. This advance was based on
damage by cold weather and storms more
than anything else, although the con-
tinued good spot demand encouraged the
bulls at all times. The damage done
the crop led to the making of small crop
estimates, which a few weeks ago would
not have been accepted as at all reason
able. Bears were aggressive at times
but prominent bulls gave the market de-
clded support on recessions which, sew
eral times, prevented what looked like
material declines.
Spots were In somewhat better demand,
sales on the spot amounting to 1926 bales,
against 1925 last week. Sales to arrive
totaled 9220 bales, against $3.50 last week.
Spot prices advanced 5-16c during the
week.

Pearish Sentiment Prevails
During Entire Session
REALIZING SALES HEAVY
Corn Market Is Heavy, Due to Selling
Pressure and Downward lnflu-
ence of Wheat-Oats and
Provisions Also Weak.

Chicago, October 16.-Wheat fell off
today, the bearish sentiment being
marked through the entire session. al
though a slight recovery kept the mar
ket from closing on the low point Of
the day. December ranged 1ssc lower
and closed 1c below yesterdays fig
ures and a similar condition was
shown In May, both of which grains
opened at the same point.
Corn and oats ruled lower, and pro-
visions, with the exception of imme-
date products, dropped in price.
Large realizing sales by heavy hold
ers pounded the wheat market. Cash
sales to millers, although totaling a
large amount, did not hold the mar
ket.
The corn market was heavy. due to
considerable selling pressure and the
influence OF the downward wheat mar
ket. Commission houses were prom
inent sellers. There was little f1uc-
tuation and the range was narrow
closing figures being 4 q ssc lower. A
large volume of sales for the day was
feature of the oats market, which in
sympathy with corn and wheat, dropped

low yesterdays final figures.
Outside of the immediate products
which ranged from 715Q12hc lower
the market for provisions took its tone

to higher figures. Closing prices ranged

Manchester Cloth Market.

Manchester, Eng, October 16.-In the
cloth market during the week manufac-
turers found 1t exceedingly difficult to
conclude their contracts to any extent,
and they necessarily advanced quotations
against the rise in cotton. But buyers
did not operate and only small orders are
reported for South America and the Medi-
terranean and a few special shirtings for
India at the late rates.
Yarns, which were equally unstable,
advanced 8-16d In sympathy with cotton
and curtailed the production of American
stocks. Spinners were firm. Egyptians,
however, sold more freely.

How Taxes Affect Prices.

From the Philadelphia Ledger.
By way of illustrating the different
viewpoints of manufacturers upon the
tariff revision, Charles Heber Clark, a
writer upon economic subjects, told this
story to gathering of Philadelphia man
ufacturers recently:
"a farmer in Montgomery county was
the owner of a good Aldeiny COW. A
stranger, having admired the animal
asked the farmer: What will you take
for your cow?
THE Montgomeryite scratched his head
for minute and then said:
9 Look a-here, be you the tax assessor
or has she been killed by the railroad?' -
