number of telephone calls within a
short time late yesterday afternoon at the
office Of E. A. Wickham disclosed the fact
that bogus check worker was using the
Wickham name on bad checks which he
was trying to get cashed at business
houses in the vicinity OF the Northwestern
depot. Two victims reported cashing the
forged checks when they made their In
qulries. one was passed at the Nieman
grocery store, between Eleventh and
Twelfth streets, and another at saloon at
SH Broadway. Both checks were for $3.50
and were made payable to Merritt Morley.
The forgeries were very crude and no one
should have been deceived by them. The
Wickhams use only a special printed check
and are all printed, payable to order"
The forged checks were written on the
common transient blank used by the First
National bank
The police last evening arrested a stranger
giving the name of J. II. Leese, who said
ne was from st. Joseph. No, on the charge
OF attempting to pass worthless checks in
the vicinity of Sixteenth avenue and South
Sixth street. He was taken to the Gard
drug store at Sixteenth avenue and South
Seventh street after his arrest and was
Identified by two persons there as the in
diVidual who was seeking to pass checks.
When searched at the station he had a
flash roll Of money One bill was
printed In excellent imitation OF a $40
gold certificate on one side and the other
side was blank. Attached to the top of a
pile of 81 bills II made quite an imposing
appearance. No blank checks we're found
when he was searched and he denied that
ne mad any. He had 81 in cash.

NEW YORK, Sept s.-The small con-
ungent of operators in stocks laid aside
political conditions today in the conviction
apparently that they had lost their power

which were substituted In the attempt to
tind motive force which would prove
effective made but small impression on
the market.
The government crop report as IL did not
appear until less than half an hour before
the close Of the session and after the grain
markets had closed for the day, had more
erect OF pressure on activity than of
stimulation
The monthly statement of the Copper
Producers association was ill-calcuated to
reneVe the apprehension which is felt over
the course OF affairs in that trade
The assumption that production was being
curtailed as result OF agreements arrived
az by conferences among the principal pro-
by this showing The publication came too
late to affect foreign markets and an ad-
vance in the price of copper occurred In
the London market. The effect on securi-
ties here was slight.
A further crumbling in the price of Amer
lcan Hide and Leather preferred carried Il
to 49, the lowest price OF the year, after
having sold at 32Ac on Tuesday. This rep
resented the cul mination OF a discreditable
episode in stock market manipulation by
which pool in the stock worked on the
credulity of a speculative following almost
UP to the hour Of the publication of the
annual report.

out 1t was sold without the necessity or
lowering prices. In fact, the market yes
terday was, IL anything stronger on the
more desirable grades OF feeders, and that,
too, in the face of a reported sharp break
at Chicago and some other market points.
Buyers here did not pay the slightest at
tention to other markets, but bought the
offerings here on their merits. No seller
saw better market than has been expert
enced at this point during the first mar
of the week in the face OF record-breaktng
receipts.
This morning another big run put in an
appearance and the fact that good many
buyers had filled their orders and gone
nome together with the reports or still
further break in eastern markets, had a
rather weakening effect upon the market
Packers started out talking easier prices,
on the ground that they had been paying
more for supplies here than further east
and that they were entitled to some little
concession.
On the other hand while feeder buyers
did not appear numerous as yesterday,
commission men had a good many orders
In hand which helped out a good DEAL
und country buyers began dropping in, 50
that Instead OF starting out ioWer, the
market really opened fully steady ON de-
slrable kinds.
AS the morning advanced 1t became APP
parent that the demand was large enough
10 take everything In sight, at least every
thing desirable, and the trade became quite
active The better kinds sold right up even
with yesterdays strong market. Old and
common feeder ewes were little slow,
owing to the fact that there were quite a
good many of that kind, but the market as
a whole was in fine shape as viewed from
a sellers standpoint.
