STOCK PRICES TURN
UPWARD At CLOSE
Metal Shares Lead Recovery
to Around Level of Pre-
ceding Day.
BY GEORGE T. HUGHES.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, September 19-In q
hectic session, stocks today first de-
veloped pronounced weakness. then
rallied In the last hour under the lead
ership of the metal shares, which were
stimulated by the urging upon Presi-
dent Roosevelt of a plan for the free
coinage of new silver
The recovery was extensive enough
to bring the general list back close to
the preceding close and put many of
the metal stocks to new highs for the
year.
The earlier weakness was the result
OF the sharp decline in the bond mar
ket, a decline which took in not only
the high-grade investment issues, but
speculative obligations as well. The
rails were the chief sufferers during
the morning
Commodities Follow.
Commodities went through a similar
series of fluctuations. Wheat, however,
left of Is to 2ls cents bushel higher
and cotton in the late afternoon was
up a dollar bale. Silver futures,
which had been weak in the early
trading. came back over all the ground
lost
The dollar momentarily touched .
new low. but rallied and was not i'm
portantly changed.
A Stock Exchange seat sold for $780,
600 less than the last previous sale.
This was reflection Of the proposed
new taxation to be imposed by the City
OF New York. Discussion continued as
to moving the securities business to
New Jersey.
Among the features in the late res
covery were American Smelling e. Re-
fining, u S. Smelling, Noranda Mines,
International Nickel and st. Joseph
Lead. all at new 1888 highs.
The market opened lower and was
under pressure all the morning. For
time the metal stocks held out
against the trend, but eventually they
weakened. although their losses were
not large 1t was the weakness in the
investment bond market which unset-
tied stocks. Bonds we're freely offered,
particularly those of the highest grade,
and this selling reacted on equities.
Gold Price Unchanged.
The price of gold in London was fixed
at 13l shillings pence. unchanged
from the day before, which had set a
new high record. Paris checks in Lon
don opened at 30 francs to the pound,
which was around the previous low.
The dollar weakened in both sterling
and francs when trading was begun on
this side. The franc, at 602 cents,
was up 2l2 points. and not far from
yesterdays top. Nevertheless. the dol
lar was little steadier today than il
had been yesterday.

Continue Search of
Missouri for Bodies

Search for bodies of two girls and
a young woman who drowned while
swimming in the Missouri river at
Sanish July 10 is being continued, it
was reported to division offices of
the 500 Line in Bismarck Friday.
Arthur Green of Sanish left Sanish
Friday morning by motorboat for a
trip downstream. He will come all
the way to Bismarck if he does not
find the bodies en- route.
He expects to scan both sides of
the river closely.
No trace Of the bodies has been
seen at Bismarck, according to O. w.
Roberts, federal meteorologist, who
with other federal workers has been
watching the stream since the drown
ing mishap.
A plane last week was sent out
from Bismarck to Sanish and though
it followed the river course to and
from Sanish it failed to locate the
bodies. F. M. Roberts Of Bismarck
was pilot and Leroy Coffin, of the
federal weather bureau here, was
observer.
The drowning victims were Dolores
Lockrem, ID; Florence Royal, Is, and
Ruth Breslin, 20, all of Sanish. The
young woman died in an attempt to
save the lives Of the girls, who sank
in Is feet of water when they
stepped from a sand bar.

and interpreted by Supreme Court
Justice A. G. Burr before nearly 200
Bismarck businessmen Thursday eve
ming.
The employers met at the call of
the special association Of commerce
committee named to promote local
cooperation in the drive.

garding the agreement and operation
Of the plan.
Most of those attending the meeting
expressed willingness to cooperate
in the drive. J. E. Davis, president of
the Association of Commerce, and
chairman of the committee, presided
at the session.
H. P. Goddard, association secre,
tary, said Friday the committee will
wait few days before taking it's next
step in the program. Committeeman

DEBT CERTIFICATES
GIVEN PREFERENCE
Legal Ruling Holds They Must
Be Paid Before Register
ed Warrants

Issuance Of certificates of indebt-
edness anticipates payment of taxes
and when the taxes are actually paid
they must be held for payment OF the
certificates, Assistant Attorney Gen.
eral Harold D. Shaft ruled Friday.
p. H. Butler of the Bank of North
Dakota had asked for an opinion as
to the priority Of certificates Of in
debtedness over registered warrants.
His question involved a determine
ton Of the priority of warrants now
issued and registered and certificates
of Indebtedness subsequently issued.
The statutes clearly require, Shaft
held, that warrants be retired in the
order of their registration out of all
funds coming into the hands Of the
treasurer of the taxing district. A
1888 law, chapter 247, requires the
proceeds Of the taxes against which
certificates OF indebtedness have
been issued be set aside for the pay
ment Of the certificates, Shaft said.
"The question is very simple as to
the subdivisions such as cities, school
districts, and townships" he contin-
ued. In the case of such subdivisions
having both certificates and warrants
outstanding, no money will come into
the hands Of the taxing district un-
til after the certificates are paid, as
this money is held by the county au-
ditor fot the payment Of the certifi-
Gates.
LAS to the counties I am satisfied
that the same rule must apply. The
issuance of certificates of indebted
ness brings cash into the treasury
and warrants previously issued would
have to be paid with that cash in
the order Of their registration. The
issuance OF certificate Of Indebtedness
anticipates the payment of the taxes
and when the taxes are actually
paid it is my opinion that they must
be held for the payment of the GER
tificateS.,
