MINING, MARKETS AND FINANCIAL
TENDENCY IS STILL STRONG
 ID BUSINESS IMPROVEMENTS

NEW YORK.-The reaction in the stock market came, as foreshadowed in my last weeks letter. The pace of the two prevpus weeks had been al together too rapid and much of the advance in that period was quick ly lost. Although the rise in the market had been led by very power ful and aggressive interests. yet there remained exceedingly infiuent ial parties not ent're.y in sympathy with the advance. As a result the talk ing of profits began on large scale. Aside from profit-taking and manipu lation an important cause of reaction rested on monetary developments. Last weeks advance in the Bank of England rate concentrated attention upon the monetary strain threatened in London. For months past foreign experts have been harp'ng upon the probability of a monetary crisis in the United States this autumn. Sing ularly enough the situation has de- reloped so that there is little or no danger of a crisis in this country, and that if a crisis Is to occur at all it will most probably be in London. just where the warning to America has originated.
 The money market will require watching. Loans are considerably in excess of deposits: an unusual and undesirable preparations. Prepara- tions are in order for November dis bursements. The strain in the London money market must have a reflex action here. although gold shipments are not to be expected at this sea son, unless Europe should become a free seller of American stocks. Lon don can get accommodation If needed on better terms .n Paris taan in New York Local rates for money are firm and good commercial paper commands as high as per cent Canada is already withdrawing funds from New York. and it remains 10 be seen whether London will force New York to ship to Argentina to settle ba'ances there as was the case a year ago. Again the treasury s'.ua ton is becoming. more acute and the government will soon be obliged to issue bonds to meet expenditures on the Panama Canal. Unfortunately this issue is delayed by interpreta tions of the law concerning the post
 
 ed to provide a market for the new bonds. Altogether the money market is in an interesting situation. Doubt less it vii work out of present diff ficulties into an easier condition later on; but during the interval is likely to be factor of importance in the security market.

 MT. Lane said nobody doubts Iowa farmers are prosperous with land values increasing 10 per cent yearly the past few years. He inquired face tiousiy what was the size of railroad lawyers automobiles witness had ob served in Iowa.
 H. G. Wilson, the second witness for the shippers, who has held minor positions in railroad traffic depart ments for 27 years. reviewed revis ions of freight rates, classifications
 minimum weights. etc, in western classffidatpn tetdtoryr especially east of the Missouri. for several years, with blue print exhibit based on Nebraska railway conmission's summary of changes in tariffs Nos, A and 45, including every change in minimum weights on all commodities affected. No. 45 had been suspended, but No. 46 subsequently, issued. Act ual rates between the Missouri and seaboard When rebates prevailed were only 60 per cent of published rates.
 Mir. Wilson enumerated three classes of advances since 1905, in minimum we'ght, eiassifcations and articles CT commodities. Raii-oal at torneys ppked fun at the other side because they havn't enough extra copies of scanty exhibits they did present, although at previous hear ing they comp p'ained because copies of rai,ruad exhibits were scarce. Wilson's exhibits showed increases of Is per cent to 200 per cent in mini mum weights on 727 articles affect ing about Is per cent of entire c,assi- fication. Wilson also compared c'assi- fications of 1905 and 1910. showing only 50 articles increased by direct raise of higher classification.
 Commissioner Lane told shippers they must supply at least 12 extra copies of exhibits to railroad couSsel within 2l hours.
 Commissioner Lane couldn't figure any increase in actual rates involved an increase in minimum weights. be- ause demand for commodities at des- tination determines mtnfmums. Witt ness said that is generally SC. but not always. Big shippers and jobbing centers always Ike to see minimum of class6icatipp ad- vance because it gives them larger proportion of car load business
 Witness denied that he or his clients wanted any rate reduction in various cases he had brought before the commerce cdmmiss'on for read justment Of rates In fact. he had re- increase in grain rates from upper Missouri rdver points to lower Mississippi crossings in cer- ain case to preserve parity between Omaha and Kansas City. Witness spofed the effect by acknowledging that TO increase could be made in that instance. When pressed for as to who would have paid that advance if 1t had been made wf7on replied. nobody" Commis- sioner Lane thought Wilson had fair Iy stated his meaning in that case.

tory steel report, were also used to exp ain the reaction; but the real cause lay in the spos:tion to take profits and the necessity of restrain ing speculation in order 10 avoid a severe monetary strngency.
 So far as the general situation is concerhed. the real tendency is to- wards improvement The interior is already tseeinn ng to feel the stimu- lus of a satisfactory harvest. The West has cut loose from politics; seems unconcerned about the money outlook. and is altogether, in a de- cidedly more hopeful frame of mind. The recession in business at the West has been. much lighter than at the East, and the general feel ng in that section is that the tide has turned and that from now on improvement VII be in order. At the South condi tons are generally satisfactory. chiefly because of the general profits realized in cotton growing. There is singular absence of complaints of any kind from that quarter. In the East, where depression has been much the .sesness. the indications pf revival are becoming more pro nounced. Trade is still below the volume of several proceeding years. but here. too. are indcaticns of a turn in the tide. The steel industry must still be considered one of our best trade ttarometers. It is stated that only 65 per cent of the blast furnace capacity of the great Steel Corporation is now being operated In various directions, however. signs of betternent are multiplying.

have ever drunk. The water is
hot at the spring and cold when
it reaches Oakley. 1t was not
intended for culinary use when
first piped to the town. 1t was
brought to Oakley for bathing
purposes. Those who furnished
the capital for the undertaking
never even dreamed OF using it
for culinary purpose at the time
of the undertaking. They were
greatly disappointed when they
discovered that the water was
cold when it reached Oakley.
They thought of reheating the
water but that would be a big
expense. When it proved to be
excellent drinking water those
back of the undertaking then
saw they had acted wiser than
they knew.

Ghosts
BY A. A. Tanner.

The ghosts of those used to know,
Whose earth remains in earth lie lew,
Come as still as falling snow
And whisper to me through the veil.
But if tell Tiny, 0 myl
My chums in suspect lie,
And to disprove it some will try,
1t seems to them an idle tale
Evil ghost it is they say
Who comes round about that way,
The ghosts of Saints off farther stay
In parts to mortal man unknown.
Familiar spirits they must be
Who return their friends to see;
To tell the truth they are not free,
Their liberty is not their own.
Such talk as this from those hear
Who are deaf with spiritual ear,
They do not know the truth quite clear
Which makes man from errors free.
The outer man all know is clay,
And when It's laid in earth away,
The ghost is gone from earth men say
Because ghost they cannot see.
Ghosts are present as perfume
In an orchard when in bloom,
They lnger not around the tombs,
They walk upon the zephyr's wings.
There present here there present there,
They can be present anywhere,
Unseen as odors in the air,
Around their earthly friends they cling.
Your mothers ghost and fathers too,
Unseen are standing near by you
To brace you up and pull YOU through
In moment of distressing need
They press upon your mind thought,
Hold it with you till it's caught,
You that way are spirit taught,
But know not how your mind they feed.
They touch your feelings with their own
When to you it is not known,
You may have thought you were alone,
Their tender love they make you feel.
That you hapy life may live
They warnings never fail to give,
Your imperfection they forgive,
Your many many faults conceal.
