LONDON STOCKS.

London, Nov. 6,-The Stock Ex-
change experienced another heavy
week with dropping tendency In
values and closed generally lower t,a
The chief cause of the early oectne
was the heavy liquidation OF week
accounts in connection with the settle
mcnt both for local and continental ac-
count. this stock being marketed later.
Values were heavy. especially J. nthe
Kafir section, while tue new Issues
and monetary influences held specula
ton as well as investment In cheek.
Operators feared rise in the bank
rate last Thursday, and they still be-
lieye that this section Is only being
postponed. The money market. how
ever, does not seem to share in this
view and discount houses are sim be-
low the banks minimum. De spite
the poor showing by the return, II Is
believed that the bank win take fur
plies in order to make the per cent
rate effective and discounts hardened
a trife yesterday. but continental ex-
changes on Lon london, were v stu only
cure this weeks arrivals and unless
the joint stock banks assist in making
the S per cent rate effective, and
the end of the year Is still considered
possible. Copper shares have been one
OF the liveliest sections on the Ameri-
can rumors Of coming deals. Grand
Trunk shares only recovered slightly
from the early liquidation by cont.
mental and local houses. British secur.
titles were neglected throughout the
week and closed rractionally lower.
American securities have been con-
siderably quieter with much trregu-
larity. United States Steel advanced
on trade reports and the renewal OF
rumors that the stock would be listed
on the Paris bourse, while the Harri-
man issue attracted increased atten-
ton at the end OF the week: ou tPenn-
syivania and New York Central drop
ped on the pending new issues. To-
dty's market closed lower in anttct-
patton OF a poor New York bank state

AMJIStMENTS

Across the Border" powerful drama of western life, was presented at the Orpheum last night. The en- thusiasm of the audience portrayed very clearly their appreciation and there is no doubt that at the repetition of the play tonight there will be good sized audience.
 Sanford Dodge. as Louis BardeuX, easily carried of the honors of the evening as the hero in love with Rosie, the daughter of the hard hearted Scotchman. Campbell. Rosie was played by Miss Terrell. who showed great ability in comparison with her former work. Her charming ingenu- Ousness pleased the audience. George c. Samner as Saunders was the deep dyed william. His woik was convinc ing in the climax of the second act.
 As Bod Martin. the true blue boy, Stuart Fox gave the audience an in sight into his own personality. and won many admirers through the ey- enfngs work David Marvell as Camp bell gave SO careful a delineation of the Scotchman that one forgot he was only acting. Harry Sleight as Jean Le Due left little to demand as a French Canadian.

NEW YORK. Jan. 14.-The mixed and uncertain price in the movement of todays stock market was much the same as for the several days past, but marked subsistence in activity was a distinguished feature.

 Heaviness of metal industrials proved a drag on the market.

CHICKEN THEFT CASE
 DRAWS BIG HOUSE
EaStop Convicted Yesterday At Lowell of Stealing Con-
 tents of a Henney.

C. M Eastop was yesterday given jury trial in Justice Murphy's court in Lowell on the charge of complicity with George w. Simpson in the recent raids upon the hen coops of the Far raugh brothers in the Sulphur Springs valley. It will be remembered that Simpson was convicted of this offense and given the option of paying fine of S15e or going to jail for a like number of days.
 In the trial yesterday the jury found Eastop guilty with Simpson of the theft Judgment will be pronounced today. Attorney E. G. Strickler prose cuted the case. Stanford & Morrison appeared for the defendant It was proved that Eastop not only paTtici- pated in the theft, but that he helped to dispose of the stolen fowl. This disposition, in fact, took place upon the premises of the two defendants.
 The case of James Watkins, who boards with Eastop, and who it is al legged had criminal knowledge or the affair. will likely come up later. There is no actua thieving against Watkins.
 The farmers of the Sulphur Springs valley are aiUused to a determination that such depre dations as these must stop. The couit was crowded during both trials.

OLD TIME. CITIZEN
 HAS GONE ID REST
I. N. Steele For Sixty Years a Pioneer, Is Dead at Age
 Of 83 Years.

T. N. Steele, s3 years of age, died at the Copper Queen hospital Wed nesday night after an extended Illness. He was a relative of Mrs. w. NJ. Spaulding of Opera Drive. The funeral services will occur this afternoon at the O. K. Undertaking parlors.
 With the death of Steele. another pioneer has passed from the field of action where his efforts have become indelibly impressed For sixty years he has been an untiring worker in building up the west and the great southwest. Coming from England when boy, he has given all the best of his life in building up an empire, dedicated to freedom of action and freedom of thought.
 With the western trend of civiliza- ton he has seen the great plains pass from the abode of the buffalo and the lurking red-skin to the hab.tation of the fearless American. Where the long drawn howl of the gray wolf was wont 10 arouse him from the camp fire of the far west, now the peals of the church bells and the screams of the locomotive mark the titan strides of progress.
 To such men as Steele We owe the building of the west. They believes in the possibilities of the untamed country which lay toward the setting sun. They were looking for elbow room and broader field to elect their tireside altars. Unconventional and picturesque. they are the heroes in American history. They have seen the rugged fastnesses of the frontier melt before the sturdy advances of the westerner until east and west and north and south bloom together in benign prosperity.

Some of these fish. which are very Srewsome to behold. measure from twelve to eighteen feet and weigh more than 1900 pounds It requires tremendous skill to harpoOn them and infinite tact to land them once they are struck. It is not unusu- al for the fish to run for three hours or more. and they can tow ten ton sloop.
 The fish is willy and will often go to the bottom to rest. to prevent which he has to be kept in a constant state of panic by hauling the tow in close to him. At moment of weakening an- other harpOon and a rifle shot will dis patch him.

 MODERN STOCK
Big Capital Now Behind Com
 pany and Work on Property 2 Will Begin At 0nce-Former
 Management Unsatisfactory

There was a meeting of the stock helders of the Modern Copper Mining company yesterday at the Copper Queen hotel, at which several of the officers and directors were present. The meeting was a postponed meeting for the purpose of considering a prop osition of selling the property of that company to the Boston-Bisbee com pany.
 The proposition which was made and accepted conveys the property of the Modern to the Boston-Bisbee for S1,00O, 900 in the stock of the latter, the purchasing company is to assume all indebtedness of the Modern and to resume operations at once. The stock which is to be exchanged for the Modern property is to be held in escrow, in one of the banks of Ithaca, New York. until October l, 1912.
 It is understood that the stock which will be issued will have the signature of James Schoolcraft Sherman. vice president-eleCt of the United States. With sherman at the head of the Bos- ton-Bisbee, 1t would suggest that this company will have ample funds to properly carry on the work.
 The Modern has been worked from time to time for the past eigh, years and some very good ore has been taken out. Financial difficulties have been a serious obstacle to thss progress of the company and is the cause of tle delay in developing the mine There mas also been conside, able litigation, which has been expen- siye. and many who have held stock in the company have been very much disgusted with tue manner in which things have been carr'ed on. It is to be hoped that the new arrange ments will prove successful and that the property win have a chance to show what it contains and whether it is another of the big paying proper ties in the Warren district This property is located about twelve m les west of B'sbee. One of the original locators and heavy stockholdeT is NIT. Harsna, of Bisbee.
