Stock Market

New York, July s.-The proposed
federal tax seemed to be the main rea-
son for the weakness OF munitions ana
related issues, which continued to lose
ground after a slight rally. Alcohol,
Baldwin and Crucible yielded to 4
points, with / to for American Goa!
Products. Westinghouse. Pressed Steel
Car and American Locomotive, South
ern railway and Wabash developed
greater strength, but representative
rails showed increasing neglect. Ma
rine preferred was In demand before
midday, rising a point. together with
Cuban Sugar Cane and Texas Co.
Bonds were firm.
New York. July 3.-Trading was ex-
tremely listless on the resumption OF
business today, the coming holiday
causing further curtailnlent Of opera
tions. Developments over the week
end were regarded as encouraging but
failed to find very direct explanation
in quoted values which were again 1r-
regular. Pressure against specialties
like Steudebaker and Crucible Steel
were renewed with initial losses Of l
to 2 points. Mexican Petroleum made
a substantial gain with fairly large
transactions in Wabash preferred and
Southern railway at fractional ad-
vances. Transcontinentals were
strong, Union Pacific and Canadian Pa
cific scoring point gains.
New York, July 3.-The closing was
firm.

chance to see Just how soldiers DO
live. They found Co. G very comfort
able in the large Sibley conical tents.
but the state having run out Of these,
the band was forced to camp in the
pup or service tents. These pup"
tents are just about large enough for
two or three men to lie down In and
are about three or four feet high.
The sanitary condition Of the camp
is of the best The troops are Of
course encamped in company streets.
At the highest point on the ground
there Is a huge water tank and pipes
lead to the head Of each company
street. The cook shanty, as It Is call
ed, also stands at the head of the
street, and the tents Of the boys
stretch away below. The Officers are
a little more comfortable ut their
headquarters and are not so crowded.
Twice each day a squad 10 assigned
from each company to fatigue duty to
police the streets, and every bit of
paper or rubbish is gathered up and
burned, as is all refuse.
Band Is Popular. ...
= The First Cavalry band is especially
popular with the rest of the men,
not only because of their ability with
their Instruments, but also because
they were largely instrumental In
making the men Of the First Cavalry
take the oath Of soldier. Several
Of the band boys, when the cavalry.
men refused to go into the federal
service, got up Spirit Of '76" hfe and
drum corps, and went recruiting.
Many of tho parties from Ottumwa
stayed to hear the band concert In tho
afternoon by the Clarinda band. and
several remained until late at night
to hear the Ottumwa band play. Most
Of the cars, however, started for home
between 4 and o'clock. The visitors
enjoyed very minute Of their stay and
promised to 60 up again If the militia
is held at Camp Dodge for few weeks
longer. There was much credit due to
the committee who arranged for the
excursion and made it possible for
some of the relatives to 30 to Des
Moines and see their boys. and to
them the relatives are grateful.

TRAIN HITS CAR
KILLING WOMAN
CONTINUED From Page ~

tho ditch alongside the track Then scat
tered pieces Of the automobile came
in sight and then the bodies of the
unconscious injured. BY that time the
news that an automobile had been
struck and the passengers probably
killed, had passed like wildfire through
the cars and mothers rushed to get
their children away from the windows
to keep them from seeing the terrible
sight.
A few minutes later, train employees
hurried into the Pullman and secured
all the pillows, sheets and towels
available and hurried forth with them.
Then came a call for umbrellas to keep
the burning sun of the injured ana
the passengers literally opened up
their baggage and told the trainmen
to take any thing they needed.
People were running toward the
scene of the accident from all direc.
tions BY this time. Women from near
by houses brought sheets and pillows
and water and it was not loong before
all that could be done pending the ar
rival of physicians, had been done for
the victims of the accident.
Crowd Waits At Station.
An unusually large crowd was wait
ing at the Milwaukee station at the
foot OF Jefferson street for the arrival
OF the train. 1t was reported on time
but failed to arrive The agent an
nounced in few minutes that the
train would be thirty minutes late, but
at that time he could not tell the
cause of the delay. The thirty min
utes passed and the train did not como
and impatient walters importuned tho
agent to find out when the train could
be expected. Then 1t was that the
agent learned of the accident, but II
he knew Of the serious consequences,
he did not give 1t out and the people
at the station continued to fume and
fuss because the train was so late.
When 1t did arrive, one hour and
ten minutes behind schedule, the seri-
BUSINESS Of the accident became COM
mon knowledge in a few minutes. As
the passengers left the train and hur.
ried up town, they became the centers
Of groups Of people who wanted to
know all the details.
It was not long before nearly every
body in the city knew that a serious
accident had occurred.
