STOCK MARKET REVIEW
Some Resistance to PRESSURE
Prices Irregular at Close.

Yesterdays stock market did not re-
veal any important buying which could
be accepted as an energetic display Of
bullishness. Prices were firm in a
large part of the list, but there was
irregularity, which offered little en-
couragement to optimism as regards
the near future recovery from the
weeks slump. The most encouraging
part of yesterdays development was
the firmer prices sent over by London
before the local opening, but the ner-
vousness created by the spectacular
movements on the New York Stock
Exchange during the last few days has
left a degree Of caution among traders
which prevented any extensive COM
mitments.
A large percentage of sentiment was
inclined to the bullish side of the mar
ket, but the uncertainty Of what may
follow on Monday retarded an active
improvement. The shock which last
Mondays decision of the United States
ger suit gave to the market had not
lost its effect and in view Of the ex-
pected decision tomorrow in the Min
nesota rate case traders were not in
clined to take any chances, but pre-
ferred to await developments before
putting out new lines.
The call money tone continued to be
easier, and for the period there was
nothing discouraging. In the gains
made for the day the list displayed a
mixed array of both rails and indus
trials. Amalgamated Copper and
United States Steel showed fractional
declines. The only large gain shown
was in Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern, which on a transaction Of one hun
dred shares recorded an advance Of
9% points, and the heaviest loss shown
was by the Texas Company Of 3as
points on transactions amounting to
2,015 shares.

Perkins County
Circuit Court

If brevlty be the soul of wit
then and we say this most re.
spectfully the October session
of circuit court for Perkins coun.
ty, was a most original joke. II
was generally supposed that court
would last at least week. but as
it proved, barely an actual day
was required, Judge Carpenter
making a clean sweep of such
cases on the calendar where one
or the other party were unprc-
pared.
The jury were called for but
one case, but even in that, the
Court took the matter out of their
hands, rcndlng decision for plain
tiff on legal points. This was the
case Of Sheriff Anderson VS..
Braaten & Braaten for fees.
Owing to the fact that court
sat Just prior to an election no
naturalization cases were consid-
cred, such being the demand of
the law regulating naturaliza-
tions. Judge Carpenter will prob
ably hear these cases soon after
election at special sitting.
The Dan Sears case was dis
missed, States Attorney Stanley
showing that as the testimony
must needs follow the line of
that in a previous case against
the defendant, in which the state
| failed to make out a case, and
no new evidence being obtain
able. a conviction was not likely.
The Pegan larceny case went
by default defendent failing to
appear, and this failure forfeit
ing his bond.
