WALL STREET NEWS
Stocks Heavy at Opening but Strong
in the AfternOon-POwerful
Influences Sustain Market.
Rr THoMAs 9. sHoTwELL.

New York. Jan. 16-stocks were heavy
in the early part Of to-dayAs session. but
strong in the afternoon. so that more net
gains than losses were reported. Read
ing and Lehigh Valley were the leaders
Union Pacific and steel were the heavy
features, but even the heavy stocks held
their own most Of the day. The mysteri-
Gus selling OF Union Pacific continued.
Most important OF the news Developments
OF the day was the announcement that
the Rock Island had sold s20,0O00oO bonds
and that the New York Central had
placed an order for rails.
One depressing influence was report
that William Rockefeller was standing
out for the full per cent dividend rate
on St Paul, and would insist upon II
being declared, although the other direc-
tors want a reduction. This Rockefeller
report caused St Paul to sell within n
fraction of its low record price, but II
recovered and showed a net gain on the
days transaction. The market in gen
eral acted as though II would decline. but
for some powerful influence that Is hold
ing Il up, contrary to the desires Of the
to be exerted through Lehigh Valley and
Reading.
Professional traders are discussing the
possibility Of a segregation plan in con-
nection with Reading. Readings own
ership Of the Jersey Central Is Illegal
and this, Of course, must be segregated.
But as the Reading Railroad Company
does not own the Reading Coal and Iron
Company, both of these owned by the
Reading Company, which Is purely an
investment concern, there Is q shadow
OF legality In continued ownership by
the Reading Company OF everything II
now owns except the Jersey Central
The case was different from Lehigh VAL
ley. where the company owned the coal
company. and still different in the Lack
awanna. where coal properties were
owned in fee simple by the railroad com
pany.
Late IN the day the Chicago. Rock
Island and Pacific Railway Company
announced that II had sold to Spey-
er & Co. S0ooo.oO0 of twenty-five year
5 per cent debentures. The proceeds
win be used for terminal improvements at
Omaha, for new terminals and q bridge
across the Mississippi River at Memphis.
and for other purposes. among which
will be the refunding OF securities fall
ing due IN 1872 and 1919 This is
the first important sale OF long term
bonds that has been made for q eonsid-
cradle period, and suggests a revival Of
confidence on the part of the large bank
ing interests. As q result Of this new
issue. the first refunding mortgage bonds
or other bonds that the company has the
right to issue win, during the next two
years. be retained in the company's treas
ury as free assets as they become is

FOLLOWS HER SON IN DEATH
Mrs. Mary A. Swaggart, Pioneer Lady
Well Known in This Vicinity.

Just one week after the summons of
death had called her son Lester, MIS-
Mary a. Swaggaft died at her home
in Pendleton Monday morning. The
funeral held Wednesday afternoon
from the M. e. church in Pendleton
was attended by large number Of
friends and acquaintanoes. Mrs.
Swaggart for many years made her
home at the farm north of this city,
where Mr.. and Mrs. j. M. Swaggart
now reside. Mondays East Oregon
ian contained the following,
Though Mrs. Swaggart had been
feeble for some time because of her
age and had been suffering lately from
injuries sustained two weeks ago in
fall it was not thought she was ser
iously low and death came upexpect-
edly. 1t is probable that her sons
death week ago hastened her own
end.
Mary Adeline Harper was born In
Hancock county. Illinois, October 28,
1899, and was thus 88 years Of age at
her death. Her father, George Har-
per, bore the distinction of having
been schoolmate of the martyrbd
president, Abraham Lincoln. On June
"a. 1847, at her home 10 Illinois, she
was married to Nelson Swaggart and
six years later with him crossed the
plains by OK team to Oregon, settling
10 Lane county upon donation claim
and remaining there until 1878 when
they came to Umatilla county and
commenced farming and stockraisine
two and a-half miles north of Athena.
There they remained until twelve
years ago when Mr.. Swaggart retired
from active life and moved to Pendle-
ton. Her husband died In Pendleton
six years ago.
Mrs. Swaggart was the mother OF
fourteen children, seven Of whom
still survive her as follows: George
Swaggart of Heppner. Ben SwaggaTt
of Lexington. A. l.. and j. NJ. Swsg
gart OF Athena, MIs. w. +. Matlock
and Mrs. G. s. Wheeler of Pendieton
and Mrs. Wilbur Keith of Waueona,
Washington. One brother Older than
herself. William Harper. resides near
Colfax, Wash.
Deceased had been member of the
Methodist church since 1853 and was
counted woman of sterling worth.
Despite the fact that she had a large
family of her own for which to care.
for many years she acted as mid
wife and Travelled many miles with
her own baby in her lap TO care for
patients in confinement cases. She
had made best Of fFieads during her

LOSES RIGHTS ON
ELECTION BOARDS
REPUBLICANS FALL TO THIRD
PLACE ON BALLOT.
G. O. P. Ranks on Ticket In
Oregon Hereafter Above So
cialists and Prohibitionists.

For the next four years at least,
there will be no Republican election
clerks and judges in Oregon. This
announcement was made by Deputy
City Auditor O. +. Wiegand Of Port
land after he had examined the state
election laws preliminary to sending
notification to the city council to ap-
point officials for city primary aud
general elections next year, says the
Journal.
According to the particular section
Of the state law governing the appoint
ment of election officials these must be
selected from members OF the two po-,
litical parties ''that cast the two
highest number Of votes for presiden-
tial electors at the last preceding pres
idential election, and no more than
two judges and two clerks on any ono
election board shall be mem bers of
the same political party"
Atthe coming primary election next
May, therefore, only Democrats and
Progressives will be included on the
election boards. There will be- two
Democratic judges and two Democrat
10 clerks and one Progressive Judge
and one Progressive clerk on each
board of six.
Furthermore the Democrats will
have first place on the ballot and the
Progressives will have second place.
The Repu blican candidates will have
to be content with third place, just
ahead of the Prohibitionists and So
oialists. Such is the strange turn OF
affairs brought about by the great
split in the q. 0. P. ty Theodore
Roosevelt and the resultant ascend
ancy Of the party OF Thomas Jefferson.
