Finances and Markets l;

New York. Aug 31.-Following a sharp rise in the opening or the market and a subsequent recession. stocks moved in a narrow range to- day. Trading was aimlcss and trad CTS indifferent. Business fell to the smallest volume in several days. Pressure was directed against Lehigh Valley to a considerable extent. and one time during the day stocks fell six points from the highest of the session. It is said large holdings were thrown on the market Later in the day Amalgamated copper was attacked in much the same way, giv- ing away two points. Similarity in the two attlcks, gave rise to the belief that both were bear attacks intended to facilitate short covering. Lehighs bottom price today was the lowest of the year. Interest turned on considerable prospect of a strike on the Hartman and other lines Stand dar Oil and American Tobacco were both active today Offer of BIO was made for Standard Oil X-subsidaries'' but traders refused to deal in issues on those terms, until better oppOrtun- ity presented of determining their value. Various plans are afoot today to prevent wide fluctuations tomorrow. but at the close it was uncertain what course would be taken by the trading public. Tobacco was strong through out Bonds irregular Total sales. par value. S1,34O.OO0

SHELTER.

By the wide lakes margin I marked her lie The wide. weird lake where the alders sigh A young. fair thing. with a shy soft eye:
 And dreamed that her thoughts had flown To her home. and her brethren, and sis ters dear. As she lay there watching the dark. deep mere. All motionless, all alone. Then I heard a noise as of men and boys.
 And a boisterous troop drew night. Whither now will retreat those fairy feet?
 Where hide till the storms pass by? One glance-the wild glance of a hunt ed thing She cast behind her; she gave one spring; And there followed a splash and a broadening ring On the lake where the alders sigh. She had gone from the ken of un- gentle men, Yet scarce did I mourn for that: For I knew she was safe in her own home then, And. the danger past, would appear again.
 For she was a water rat

 The matter of relations between the { Water Users Association representing the Reclamation Service and the gener- 1 al government of the United States. | came up in response to communica- | tion from the Water Users Association. | asking the city to act promptly in pay i ment ot certain water rents which. ] since it did not appear that tha coun- i Cilmen present themselves understood it | very clearly, others could not be ex- . pected to- Councilman MCDermott and .

which agreement is necessary before
 any we'll defined and satisfactory pol
 icy can be agreed upon.
 On two things. however, the coun-
 cilmen present were quite well agreed:
 first, to write to the secretary of the
 Interior about it, to try to see just where the city stands and the govern ment as well; and second, to ask the return of certain small payments that the city has made for water in con- nection with the reclamation district. It seemed to be clear that the city is now and has been getting water from only the normal flow of the river, for which it should pay only the delivery charges.
 A proposition from Councilman Me Elroy to place a small electric light in front of the Sisters Hospital, which he said was a public hospital brought out a general discussion of the question of how to arrange the lights in order to best light the city. Councilman Me Dermott said that when lights were put in. as they had been largely in the past in the places desired by those who ask ad for them. the result was considerable punching of them, sometimes. The idea of putting them on alternate cor ners. so that every block on a street would have one on one side of the street or the other had been talked pver and followed somewhat. The idea also had been proposed that the lights to be taken up to give place tO the new lights, with others to be added, should be used in this regular plan of light ng. The fact that there was consid- ,rable demand at the present time for nore lights in the northeastern part of he city was stated.
 The lighting matter was referred to he committee of the whole, and upon ! adjournment following immediately af- ! erward, the councilmen, with the city ttorney and assistant city clerk, went | nto a special session in the office of | .ity Assessor Barnett, the assessor, | who was about the only spectator at . he council meeting, not being present. |
