MARKET
MORE STEADY
Western Money Markets
Firmer and Bonds Were
Firmer but Dull.

New York. July 16.-Steady and
consistent strength was manifested by
the stock market today. the result
primarily of last Saturdays strong
bank statement, which rectified the
week when a deficit in the actual re-
serves was reported.
st. Paul, which was the weakest fea-
ture of the market in the closing days
of last week, recovered over two
points from its low level of that per-
iod, despite increasing belief that the
approaching semi-annual dividend
may suffer further reduction. Union
Pacific. Norfolk & Western and other
dividend payers, reflected modrat ah-
sorpton. with a fair demand for some
of tn specialties, comprising the cleo
trical and equipment groups. There
virtually We're no transactions in the
securities of the several express COM
panies, whose earnings are likely to
be somewhat impaired by reason of
the new rate system ordered by the in
terstate commerce commission.
Another beneficial effect of the bank
statement was the greater ease Of
money, which showed a relaxing
tendency in call loans. although de
mand was somewhat in excess of re-
cent days. Western money markets
We're flrmer. however, a condition
arising directly from business revival
II increased trade activity.
Bonds We're steady but dull. Total
sales. par value, amounted to S2.530.-
900. United States government bonds
We're unchanged.

NORTH DAKOTA CROPS

Naturally. in these growing months,
North Dakota's interest is centered in
h crops, and this year that interest
is well justified. Unless conditions
change wonderfully in the next
month. this state will produce by far
the greatest crop in its history. Last
year, with a large portion of the state
suffering from dry weather. the money
returns from the crop We're the great
est in the history of the state. This
year every portion of the state reports
sufficient moisture and grains and
grasses in the pink of condition. Corn
is not. as Yet. showing so Well as could
be hoped, this condition due in the
first place to poor seed (poor seed has
injured prospects in all parts of the
country and to cold weather. The re-
cent rains and warm wather will i'm.
prove the corn outlook wonderfully.
The fact that fine rains are coming to
practically all parts of the state as
they are needed is the big factor in
the present good GRO promise.
The promise of big yields this fall
is having its effect upon business con-
ditions over h state and the entire
northwest. Grand Forks retailers,
wholesalers and manufacturers and
bankers are already feeling the eff
feet, credit men in large Wholesale
houses are revising lists. greater lib
erty is the rule. and 1t is common
talk now that nothing can possibly
cut down the crop as it was cut
down last year. hat it is only a
question now how. great it will be and
how to finance it and move it. Traffic
managers of big railroads are working
nights and rounding up cars and send
ing them out into the fields. and TO-.
900 cars will have been placed before
the first cuttings come into the coun-
try elevators. There will be money
enough to the crops. bankers
say. and interest rates will be normal.

read at last nights receptions:
The progressive movements of the
city of Conway, in which the Board
of Trade has always taken special in

Of its members for his ardent support
and untiring efforts in behalf of this
city that an expression of appreeia-
tion from those with whom he has
been associated in the movements fo1
public good is justly deserved.
From the time that John Jetel
Hurt first came to our city he has
been recognized as one whose every
effort has been for the upbuilding of
Conway, He has never stopped be
cause of obstacles in his way, non
sh,rlled public duty. One of the
most magnificent structures of oul
city stands monument to his un.
ceasing efforts, excellent foresight in
plans and good taste in architectural
designs.
His ability as a public speaker has
made him what at times doubtless
seemed to him convenience in the
numerous meetings of our body wher
an eloquent speaker was needed We

CITY COMMfNDS
REV. MR.. HURT
A FAREWELL RECEPTION
BOARD OF TRADE ADOPTS RES.
OLUTIONS ON MINISTER'S
DEPARTURE.

At the invitation of the Junior Aid
Society, a large number of citizens of
Conway gathered at the First Baptist
church last night to extend parting
greetings to Rev. John Jeter Hurt
and Mrs. Hurt, who leave about June
l for Durham, N. c., where Mr.. Hurt
has accepted the pastorate of the
First Baptist church. The assemblage
was representative one and the oc-
casion was a striking demonstration
of the regard felt for the retiring
pastor, not only by his congregation,
bu by the citizenship of Conway.
Brief tributes to Mr.. Hurts work
here and feeling expressions of re-
gret over his departure for another
field of labor We're paid by President
}. Frauenthal on behalf of the Board
of Trade, Prof. w. B. Hubbell on be
half of the educational institutions
and other churches and Col. G. w.
Bruce on behalf of the Baptist
church. At the conclusion of the re-
marks by these gentlemen, Mr.. Hurt
responded in touching and eloquent
talk, expressing his regret at leaving
the people among whom he had lived
and labored for the past seven years
and declaring that Conway, the town
which occupied the closest place in his
heart, would never be forgotten by
him.
On behalf of the Junior Aid, Mrs.
II. S. Traylor presented Mr.. Hurt

en- and always found him ready to

ten and always found him ready to
respond.
The great moral good that Mr..
Hurt has done for our community
would be difficult to estimate. In ey-
cry question where the public good of
our city was at stake he has been es-
pecially active and efficient.
We know of no man who has done
more to cause people outside of Con-
way to think well of our city than
has this man. for whether at home or
abroad, he believed in Conway, talked
Conway. Like one of his favorite
writers, he felt that he was "a citi-
zen OF no mean CITY,"
We believe in John Jeter Hurt and
appreciate his having lived with us.
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the secretary of
the Board of Trade be instructed to
convey to Mr.. Hurt the sense of this
meeting, and our appreciation of his
many services rendered.

Little Rock, May PA friendly
action has been instituted in the Pu-

Anti-Saloon League of Arkansas. 1t
is hoped thereby that it's status may
be firmly established before the time
expires in which it must be'cert;fied

promoters will be saved the further

be upheld by the courts, its advocates
may proceed with it's election with an
assurance that it will stand if adopt

Rev. Frank Barrett, superintend-
cnt Of the Anti Saloon League, makes
the following statement relative to
the suit:
1T is my understanding that the
injunction suit now pending in the
circuit court against statewide pro-
hibition has been instituted By
friends of the bill with view to test
ing the legality as we'll as the consti-
tutionalty of the measure at all
points (which it might be attacked
before or after its election. Since the
validity of the enabling act, under
which the statewide prohibition bill
was initiated, has been denied in a re-
cent ruling of the circuit court, there
has been no Unit to the predictions
made by the friends and enemies of

MAKING HIS WAY HOME.
Boy Who Worked Near This City Be-
came Homesick.

The following is from the Savannah
nah News of yesterday:
. "Homesick and as he thought, over
worked, Levy Barfeld,~ a 14-year-ol6
boy, entered Savannah late Wednes
day night on the top of an Atlantic
Coast Line freight train trying to
make his way to his home in Parkers-
burg, n. c. ..-.
When the freight train reached
the junction the operator on duty saw
the boy on the top of one of the
freight cars. He at first thought him
dead, but on climbing up to his side
found him only sleeping. The boy
was brought into the city. Recorder
John E. Schwartz became interested
in him and secured a position. for
him yesterday in a railroad office.
Until he can become better located
the boy is at the Salvation ARMY
headquarters on Liberty street.
Employed on a farm near Bruns-
wick where he worked hard and long
for SO month, the boy became
homesick. He thought himself over
worked. He determined to reach his
home in North Carolina and started
out. He boarded the freight train at
Offerman, and rode into Savannah on
ton of one of the cars.
His father, the boy says, is dead,
bu, his mother is living in Parkers-
burg, N. c., and it was toward that
place he was striving to make his
way. He went to Brunswick from
Parkersburg with the man for whom
he later worked. The boy has made
a good impression among those who
have talked with him and will be
well cared for while in the city.

DEPOT NEEDED ]
AT THALMANN
TRAVELLERS COMPLAIN OF SERV-
ICE THEY ARE RECEIVING
AT PRESENT.

Unless depot of some kind is
erected at Thalmann in the near fu-
ture, by the Seaboard and the A., B.
& A., it is probable that the state
railroad commission will be petition
ed n an effort to get the structure
erected.
The travelling public generally is
seriously kicking about the service
which they are receiving at this inn
portant junction, where, very fre-
quently, they have to wait for hours
for i train, with no place of accom-
modation except box car, which is
being used as a depot.
The little station at Thalmann was
destroyed by fire several months ago
and 1t has never been replaced. While
many complaints have been entered
in this city against the poor accom-
modatlons at the junction, no steps
were taken, it being generally under
STOOD that the depot would be re-
placed as soon as possible, but the
Old box car is still being used and
something will now be done to force
the railroad to erect a station for the
accommodation of the travelling pub
lie.
Yesterday afternoon quite a num-
Der of passengers left the city on
the afternoon A., B. & A. train. for
Jacksonville. When they reached
Thalmann a heavy rain was falling
and the passengers were :, informed
that the Seaboard train was several
hours late. There was nothing left
for them to do except stand around
in the small box car, wait in the rain
or return to Brunswick, and two or
three of them did the latter.
Thalnann is very important juno
tlon point, all passengers between
this city and Savannah and Jackson
vile travelling via that point, where
change of cars is necessary, and a
depot is badly needed for the con-
venience and comfort of the people
generally. -.
