CENSUS DISTINCTION

TALKS OF WORK OF b.
REAU AND ITS MEN,

Washington. Sept. DISAPPOINTMENT
Clerk Pindell of the United States
census bureau. states on the subject
of the census examination. October %.
that the distinction between the per-
manent census force and the additional
temporary employees provided by the
thirteenth census act is quite impor-
tant and should be remembered As
vacancies occur on the permanent
census roll they will be filled. as here
tofore. by transfers from elsewhere in
the service, or by selections from the
existing registers of the civil service
commission.
Persons now on the registers of the
commission are. therefore, eligible for
appointment to vacancies on the per-
manent census roll. but there is no
greater opportunity during the decen-
NAL period for such appointments than
there has been heretofore. The addi-
tional temporary positions, authorized
by the thirteenth census act. except
those above $1,000 per annum. which
will be filled largely by transfers from
the permanent census roll, will be
given tn those persons who pass the
test examination on October 90. Those
now on the registers of the civil serv-
ice commission. who desire appoint
ment tn these additional census places,
should take the test examination. as
their present eligibility ayails them
nothing in respect to appointments to
these positions. The fact that n per-
son is on the civil service register does
not prevent him from taking this test
examination. g.

MARKET MOVEMENTS
Of THE DAY

New York. Sept. 13--The dull trad
ing and the narrowing price move
ments in today's stock market marked
the normal subsistence of the violent
contortions caused by Mr.. Harrimans
death No one supposed that the
death of a capitalist of Mr. Harri-
mans power and grasp contained any
positive force for the betterment of
values. Therefore the early termina-
ton of the headlong advance of Fri
day was expected. The reactionary
tendency which developed on Satur-
day was pushed by various profess
sional devices today in an effort to
widen the swing of the price move
ment of which professional traders
profits depended.
The exhaustion of last weeks power
Of the motive forces were manifest
| in the restriction of the reaction. and
! later fluttering vibrations of prices.
| The remaining traces of feverishness
in the movement of Union Pacific
were accounted for by the steps taken
toward securing the continuation of
its administration and the rumors
bearing on the future policy of the
election of new members of the board
of directors and of the executive
was regarded as intended to
stop some of the rumors of contem-
| plated changes. The expectation that
a member of ]. p. Morgan & Co,
was to be admitted to the board was
thus disappointed. London took an
unfavorable view of our monetary
outlook and was disquieted as we'll
| by the American copper statistics
showing a rate of production still
heavily in excess of consumption. The
unsettlement In the market was ag-
| grayated by rumors that brokerage
| houses were embarrassed by the re-
| cent fluctuations. The denial of these
rumors gave the market its first
show of strength during the mid-ses-
1 sion. but was discounted in accord
ance with the fresh action in Union
| Pacific. The weekly bank statement
published after the banks closed on
Saturday came in for discussion and
prepared sentiment for a future hard
ening of money rates. Bankers do moi
anticipate tight money markets this
fall in spite of the narrow reserve oi
banks at present. The fall in Union
Pacific allowing for the dividend oil
today carried it off 7 3-s from the
high point on Saturday. The closing
of the books today for the coming an.
nual meeting ends any demand fol
representation at that meeting.
Bonds were weak. Total sales, fpai
| valued, 50. $50, 900.
United States bonds were unchanged
on call.

Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. Sept l3.-Attentiou Of
traders in the wheat pit was diverted
temporarily from the domestic con-
di,ions which have made sentiment
bearish and the wheat market was in
1uenced today by the foreign situa-
ton.
One of the leading implement con-
Germs I'm this country was reported to
have received message from Argen-
tine claiming that the crop had al
ready suffered considerable injury
from locusts and this report was con-
firmed partially by other dispatches
from. private sources These reports
inspired active buying toward mid
day and throughout the remainder of
the day the demand continued brisk
The market was depressed by the
enormous receipts from the northwest
which were the largest on record. The
firmness of cash wheat here and in
the southwest. however, tended to off
set this liberal movement. September
was again extremely erratic and dur
ing the day sold between sl.01L and
sl.o3A. December ranged between
ssn and ssa. The market closed
strong at almost the top, December
being at $l.037s and December at
9SA assoc.
Considerable weakness in the corn
market was evidenced but the
strength caused a firmer feeling in the
final market. The market closed
about steady with prices n shade high
er to &c lower compared with the
previous close.
Weakness of corn prompted mod
crate profit-taking in oats which
caused the market To sag. Fina
quotations showed gains of n shade
to hc.
Provisions were weak with the ex-
ception of September pork. which
made slight gains. At the clos,
September pork was up l2isc. whilt
the remainder of the list was nc t.
30m32hc lower.

CANNOT.ASCERTA|N
POSITION At POLE

Paris, Sept. 13.-Ravmond Lestornat,
a member of thu superior council of
navigation. said today that he thought
the difficulties of ascertaining a posi-
ton in high polar attitudes made 1t
quite likely that both Commander
Peary and DR.. Frederick Cook were
in error. The delicacy of the record
ing instruments and the fact that the
excessive cold makes 1t necessary to
handle them with muffled fingers, to-
gether with the refraction Of the rays
of the sun, make accurate use of the
sextant almost impossible.
Continuing. NJ. Lestonnat said he
thought a dash to the pole had little
scientific value. The real secrets are
to be found at the magnetic pole,
where study of conditions might fur
nsh important indications regarding
the physical properties of the globe.

HARTMAN AFTER
A VIRGINIA ROAD
May Capture virginian Rail-
road Because of Death
Of H. H. Rogers.
WILL EXTEND THE LINE
IT Is PLANNED TO HAVE IT
MAKE DIRECT CONNECTIONS
WITH THE ROAD CONSTRUCT
ED az JOSEPH RAMSEY.

Pittsburg, Pa, May 22.-That e. H.
Hartman and his associates will Sc
cure control of the virginian Railroad
on account of the death OF H. H. Rog-
ers, who built the road at cost of
more than $4O.OOO,OOO, is reported in
local railroad and financial circles.
The line is to be extended to a
point near Port Pleasant on the Ohio
River, where direct connection is to be
made with the road built by Joseph
Ramsey, Jr., former president OF the
Wabash, giving an entirely new line
from the lakes, through Ohio. West
Virginia. and Virginia to the Atlantic
seaboard. 1t Is known that Engineers
for some time past have been work
ing on plans to connect the Ramsey
road with the Virginian.
Left the Wabash.
When Mr.. Ramsey severed his con-
nection with the Wabash, he organized
a company and built the Lorain and
Ashland road from Lorain to a point
near Wellington. Ohio. He then or.
ganized second company which is
building the Ashland & Southern
railroad from the Southern terminus
Of the first named road to the Ohio
river. Some time ago these two com
panies were merged and the Ramsey
holdings are now known as the Lorain

They AlIege Sewers Do Not
Deposit Into the River, But
Dump Refuse on Tops of
The River Banks.
EXISTING CONDITION
is VERY UNSANlTARY
West Richmond Improvement
Association Held Its Month
" Meeting Last Night and
Discussed Matters.

That the sewers draining West Rich
mond, which are supposed to empty in
to the river, but allow the refuse to
run down from the top of the banks,
should be remedied, and the surround
ings, made little more attractive and
sanitary, is the general opinion of the
members of the West Richmond I'm
provement association, which organi-
zation met in regular monthly session
last evening.
The organization will no doubt start
q crusade on these sewers and keep
1t up until something is done to RENE
dy matters. There are at least a halt
dozen sewers on the west side which
do not empty their refuse directly into
the river, but instead deposit 1t at the
top of the river banks. The refuse OF
each sewer spreads over much terrific.
ry and leaves it swampy and an ex-
cellent breeding place for mosquitoes
and other germ-cary pests.
Could Make Extension.
The association feels that these con.
ditions could be remedied much the
same as they have in other places. An
extension could be easily made which
would drain the sewage directly into
the river.
The members also discussed the mat
ter of improving the river bank be
tween the Main street and Pennsylva
MIA railroad bridges and converting
the place into a park. Even IL thi:
territory is not converted into q park
west side people want it to be made
more attractive.
The association will proceed to pusl
the matter of the erection of a wes
side hose house. The members ex
pressed much pleasure at the action o
council in purchasing the site and
now hope that money will be apprpr:
ated Immediately for the building. ant
to purchase equipment for Hose com
pany No. s.
