Advance I'm the Market.

New York, July 2S.-The announce
ment that strong banking interests had
taken control of securities held by the
pool headed by DIR. f. 5. Pearson, an
Englishman, and composed OF English
and Canadian capitalists, caused big
advance in the stock market today.
Heavy gains were reported from Lon
don and the reaction upward was fol-
lowed on the local market.
That big interests were again bulling
the market was evident from the very
opening, immense buying orders food
ing the exchange.
When the market had advanced
from to 6 points above Tuesdays
close there was considerable profit
taking, followed by slight check in
the advance, but most of the gains
were sustained.
The market rally is believed pri-
marily TO have been due TO the action
of Kuhn, Loeb & Company, in taking
over $50, 600, 900 worth Of securities, at
a private sale, from the Pearson syndi-
cate. which is said to have been greatly
strained by the slump in prices. The
holdings consist of stock purchased
when the Pearson syndicate was anxious
TO form new trans-continental rail-
road line, and are made OF immense
blocks OF Rock Island, Missouri Pacific,
Denver and Rio Grande, Wabash and
Lehigh Valley. 1t is rumored in Wall
street today that Kuhn, Loeb e. Com
pany, and their European associates in
tend to carry out the idea of the Pear
son syndicate and form the new trans
continental system. Well informed
fnanciers say the matter is being
given serious consideration, and legal
authorities are said to have declared
that the combination anticipated would
not be contrary to law.

ALEXANDRIA, VA.
THURSDAY EVENING, JULY Is.

THE day Of southern immigration
has arrived and with it has Just begun
an exodus OF Americans who have tried
Canada and quitting it for the milder
cline and more profitable farming OF
the Southland. The tide is carrying
with it colonists from Iowa, Kansas,
Nebraska, the west and northwest.
Immigration and industrial authorities
are watching the influx, which Is eX-
pected TO reach its height next October.
A recent report to the land and indus
trial department of the Southern Rail
way showed that since last May about
$4,000 acres of land in southern Ala
bama had either been purchased or was
about To be obtained for northwestern
firms and corporations for locating set
tiers. Large tracts also have been taken
in southern Georgia and northern
Florida since the first Of the year, to be
divided into farms for northern settlers.
Another movement is that OF colony
Of Slavaks from western Pennsylvania
10 southern Alabama. In northeast
Georgia there has been started the
nucleus of a colony from northwest
Canada. Individual farmers from Ono,
Indiana and Illinois are buying I'M
proved as well as wild lands in Virginia,
the Caroinas, Tennessee and northern
Alabama. Germans and Mennonite
settlers are seeking homes in districts
in the more northern portions of the
southeast section Of the country. The
big yields OF wheat, corn and other
crops and corresponding profits reported
in many southern districts have led to
the southwark migration. The asso-
Citations OF growers in the orchard and
truck districts have called attention to
the possibilities in fruit and general
garden truck culture.

in its appointments and in its decisions
have sometimes been made. But il
the arbitral court can obtain a member

who have for over a hundred years adj

much to predict that the international

Rev. E. l.. WILLIAMS, pastor OF
Grace Methodist Church, Chicago, has
found that good-natured kiss is the
panacea for all domestic ills, and, if
properly applied, would cut down the
business of the divorce courts i'm
mensely. He says:
In the homes Of the laboring men
and in those Of the rich there is a
noticeable lack of of sentiment that OK
presses itself in terms OF endearment.
The hand Of toll gets hard and un-
appreciative. The rich man neglectS
his wife, goes to Europe-and only too
often is accompanied by some facina-
ting actress. Attention to the courteSles
of home life would save disaster.

BIBLIoMANIA is by no means epidemic
in this day. Lovers of books are few
and far between now by reason OF
cheap and voluminous newspapers.
Standard books are not in demand and
many volumes which would have been
precious TO our ancestors are often found
in Junk and secondhand stores where
they can be purchased for song. Dc
casionalIy, however, we hear OF some
deep-rooted and serious case OF blbllo-
mania. Special editions of Don QulX-
ote, the Arabian Nights, Boccacio' s
Decameron, etc, are published and
purchased by opulent people to whom
these authors appeal at from one hun
dred to two hundred and fifty dollars a
volume. The extraordinary book deal

John Il. Hoxie, of Chicago, were re-
viewed a few days ago in suit before
Judge Foster for IS, 500 against Mrs.
Hoxie by the University Press. The
latter seeks to recover on three promls-
sorry notes to George d. Sproull, a New

University Press. According to At

paid $55, 900 on the contract for 1870
volumes OF first edition of the works

While the liberals remain in control
Of the administration it is certain that

event of a conservative victory in the

every effort will be made toward the
