We're always watched with interest by
horsemen. and always obtained the
highest prices on the market when sold.
If space would allow it there are nu-
merous other thoroughbred productions
of the Napa Stock Farm that are worthy
of mention, but considering the fact
that this breeding farm produces on an
average of 40 colts a year and has
been doing so for number of years,
there can be readily seen the Necessity
of celebrating on only a few. of the
most prominent.
Contrary to public belief Mr..
spreckels takes more than passing
interest in this sport and industry com
bined Having Travelled and reviewed
many of the most extensive of the for
eign breeding establishments. Mr..
Spreckels has placed his own ranch on
the same basis. Together with his SUI
perintendent, George w. Berry. whose
knowledge in this industry covers both
years and countries. Mr.. SpEeckels is
familiar with every detail of the ranch,
every stallion. broodmare, foal and the
mating of the mares. and it is with
more than ordinary delight that he
witnesses the winning of one of his
horses.
Probably the foregoing horses and
records mean little to the average
reader, but nevertheless they set forth
and prove the success of the thorough
bred-the success of a racing stable
running solely for the purses offered.
1t sets forth in brief as an example the
success of the Napa Stock Farm, whose
horses are familiar on every track in
the United States. and it might be
added. never has the finger of suspicion
that the public is so eager to connect
with racing-been pointed toward the
running of any of its horses, nor the
taint of gambling been connected with
it's owner or stable. 1t sets forth the
results obtained by one man who loves
the thoroughbreds for what they are
for what they can do-who has spared
no expense for the bettering of these
animals in California and the United
States in general.
Again the Napa Stock Farm sets forth
an example Of the wonderful resources

it was then that Mr.. Spreckels, realiz-
ing his value, purchased and imported
him to his ranch in this state.
Solitaire in his English career raced on
two tracl1s-those of Newmarket and
Windsor-and although he did not win
a great amount of money or. races, he
was always close up and was beaten
only scant lengths for some of the rich
est prizes offered in England. Among
the most notable races in which SoIi-
taire competed was that of the Lime
kiln Stakes al Newmarket where he
finished second ia front of Diedonne,
Sweet Margorie and others, and in the
Sandown FoaI Stakes at one and
quarter miles, carrying top weight,
when he was beaten nose for the first
money, beating four other cracks In
the Hyde Park handicap he was the
victim of more i'll luck and was beaten
head in this famous event He ran
second ~again in the March Stakes at
Newmarket; third in the 37th New
Biennial Stakes al Ascot, and third for
SQueens Prize at one and half
miles in front of Tarbolton, Labrador,
Champ de Mars and several others. In
the Goodwood Cup races he ran un-
placed. This was the only high class
event in which Solitaire failed to Sc
cure any of the money for his owner.
In all his races against the best
horses that money and blood could
produce Solitaire showed keen game
ness. carrying heavy weight and tray-

to go.

ONE POSTAL SAVINGS
BANK IN EACH STATE.
Government Expects Liberal
Patronage from Foreigners.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-The board
of trustees of the postal savings bank
system has approved a list of forty
eight second-class postoffices at which
the plan will receive its trial.
The list includes one office for each
State and territory. The trustees. who
are Postmaster-G General Hitchcock, Sec
rotary of the Treasury MacVeagh and
Acknowledgement Wickersham, met in
the office OF the postmaster general, and
the list they formally approved was
selected after careful investigation by
the postal officials, with a view to
making the first test of the service as
thorough as possible under the limited
appropriation of 500, 900 provided by
Congress.
A large patronage OF the service is
expected by the officials from foreign
born Americans in these cities, who are
now renting considerable sums to
their native countries. usually in the
form Of money orders. Many of the
places selected. particularly those in
the West. are not adequately provided
with other savings institutions. A
months trial will be given to the plan
before other Offices are added to the
list.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24-The cotton
market opened cas- at a decline Of Ia
% points n quickly sold off to a net
loss OF 22n31 points under active rem
eral liquidation and aggressive bear
pressure. inspired by weak cables and
private advices from Liverpool indicat-
ing Southern selling, heavy liquidation
and an absence of bull support. While
prices rallied 4 or 3 points from the
lowest during The middle of the morn
ing the tone of the market showed
little Improvement, and traders seemed
very apprehensiye of increased spot of
ferings, although there WAS nothing in
the news to indicate weakness in the
interior.
The rally during the middle of the
morning carried prices s or 10 points
above the early low level, but there
was a renewal Of heavy liquidation at
the advance and sIater the market
broke into new lower level or to a
net loss Of about 30m34 points with
January contracts, selling at 13.94. com
pairing with 1901. the high record of
October IA. There was nothing fresh In
the news to explain this renewed
weakness, but many traders are pre-
| dicting,a bearish census report tomor-
row, and increasing estimates of the
/ crop appear 10 be responsible for q
material change in sentiment among
recent bulls.
Business was a little less active dur
ing the early afternoon, but offerings
showed a tendency to increase on such
bulges as were caused by covering and
prices ruled about 20 to 30 points un-
der the closing figures of yesterday,
near months being relatively steady.

A@A to M@zs lower. December start
ed h@A to 1a@ts off, at s21sGs21s, and
fell TO e17s.
A ecove was aided by smallness OF
the visible supply increase and by ru-
mors that France had removed the duty
on oats and potatoes. The close was
firm. with December at 921s, a net loss
of h@A.
Corn dragged because of forecasts
that weather would be perfect for cur
ing and marketing. December opened

OPPOSITION NEWSPAPERS
T JAP BUDGET

TOXIC, Oct. 24.-Today's opposition
papers attack the proposed budget as
outlined by Count Katsura. the pre-
mier and minister Of finance, at the
dinner of the associated clearing
houses last evening.
The. principal criticism is that the
governments non-loan policy Is con-
Trajectory. because 1t is annually Dor
rowing postal savings of $4,000 900 for
the railway fund. Consequently. the
redemption of $25, 10000 0 OF bonds year
ly, which policy Count Katsura said
would be continued. will result. 1t is
declared, in releasing $4,000. 900 only.
The governments avowal Of the sue
cess of the last conversion OF 4 per
cent. bonds is seriously doubted.
