NO ADVANCE IN RATES EASTERN TIU K LINES, HOWEVER, MAY CURTAIL EXPENSES. Import Ratea to Re Adjnated at .Meeting on Oet. 8 C. S. Mellen to Re President of N. Y. & V H. Reports have been extensively circulated of late that a concerted movement, taking In all the large railroad systems of the country is under way to bring about an advance in freight ratos on Jan. L The Eastern trunk linrs, according to the reports in question, are planning an increase equal to about 10 per cent. "When the matter was called by the Now York Journal of Commerce, to the attention of one of the best Informed trunk line's officers, at New York, he declared the report absolutely absurd. "Of course there will be the usual end-year cleaning up of commodity ratesrates on raw materials, etc., for short distances to manufacturers and others," he said, "but it is ridiculous to talk about any general 10 per cent, advance. The basis, first-class, between New York and Chicago, has been 75 cents ever since 18X2. There can certainly be no advance on that figur.', for trade would not stand It. There is a disposition to curtail expenses, but not to advance rates." However, it has been learned that the trunk line managers aro considering the adjustment of import rates and a joint conference of New York-. Missouri River lines has been called to meet In New York. Oct. 8. The trunk-line Import committee and representatives of the gulf lines. Western Freight Association lines and Trans-Missouri lines will be present. All through rates from foreign ports to Missouri river points and points in Western territory will be discussed. The purpose is to fix these rates on a stable ba.-Ms which will prevent the through rate on imported goods being lf-s than the same rate on the home-manufat -tured products. For years home manufacturers have suffered great ly on account of relatively lower import rates. Many imported articles, for example, could be shipped from London to Missouri river points cheaper than thf same article could be shipped from the seaboard to the same points. This has beefl recognized by all roads and by steamship lines to be a great injustice. An agreement has been prepared between the steamship lines and the railroads whereby all import rates are to be based on Baltimore, which will be the 100 per cent, point. By this means It is expected the meeting will result in perfecting the plan by placing the Inland proportions of the through import rate on a fixed basis to all points. A New Idesu A prominent officer of the Pennsylvania has received from London a clipping from one of the leading newspapers of that city beariug tbi caption, "Automobilism and Railways," in which an account is given of the inauguration of a new idea in railway operation. The Great Western Railway of England has put in operation a number of automobile lines running between stations on the road and neighboring towns and villages, which serve as feeders to traffic on the main line. At the same time the railway .company is preparing to put in service a system of motor cars, or "dummies," as they are called here, to be ruu on the main line. The suburban electric railways In certain sections have cut Into the road's receipts very materially, and to meet this competition the company N having constructed at its shops a number of experimental cars which it expects to put in operation during the coming month. The engine and seating accommodations will be contained in the same v -hide, and the cars will each accommodate nfty-two pasaencers. They will run only short distant, es between stations where there is competition with the electric cars, and will make intermediate stops wherever necessary. Th- c irs are to have a tractive force equal to that of a small Id. .motive. and will be run at an aver.tL:speed of nearly twenty mils an hour. The fares will be placed on a "liberal" basis to conform to the charftf n the interurbaus. President Mellen's Change. The St. Paul Dispatch announces the resignation of President Mellen, of the Northern Pacific Railway, and his selection as president of the New York & New Haven road, to take effect Oct. 31. The Dispatch to-day says: "It has just trans1 that on Th iast. in New York, Charles S. Mellen, president of the Northern PaciOC, tendered to the directors his resignation and It was accepted. It is now announced that on Oct. 1 he will be the unanimous choice of the directors of the New York & New Haven for president of that company and on Oct. 31 he will assume the duties of his new position. So far as known Mr. Mellen's successor has not been selected." fieneral Notr. The Iron Mountain is establishing extensive terminals at Helena. La. The Southern Railway i making an earsjest effort to colonize ticrman farmers along Its line. The Santa Fe will have three special bankers' trains for the convention at San Francisco, leaving Chicago on the 10th, 13th and 17th. A. J. Grant, for the past var aud a half superintendent of the Pullman company at Cleveland, has been promoted to the superintendency at Chicago. Martin Cum, formerly yardmaster of the U I). A W. at lndiaua:oUs, will become yardmaster of the Chicago & Eastern Illinois in Terre Haute on Thursday. The Pennsylvania Steel Company Is to construct th trainshed for th- Wabash at Pittsburg, and the approach to the Monongahela river bridge connecting with it, at a c.st of something over 1500.000. The Lobdell Car Wheel Company, of Wilmington. Del., refuses to enter the car wh. . I trust known as the National Car Wheel Company, to be Incorporated under the New York State law, with a capital of $0.000.000. At the annual meeting of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul, at Milwaukee, John

A. Stewart, of New York, was elected a director in place of August Belmont. E. A. j J. Karling was re-elected president and Roswell Miller chairman of the board of dir ec lot a. Articles of consolidation were filed with ; the Ohio secretary of state Tuesday by ; the Youngstown & Southern Railway Com- j pany and the Youngstown & Salem Rail- ! way Company, taklug the name of the former. The capital stock Is $1,800.00. j They are steam roads. The incorporators are A. W. Jones, John H. Ruhmann, W.

H. Ruhmann. W. R. Long. W. S. Andrews and R. L. Andrews. The Queen & Crescent, through its general manager and general passenger agent, has tendered the courtesies of that line to the members of the American Association of General Passenger and Ticket Agents and their families for the coming meeting In New Orleans. Arrangements have been made to run a special train of Pullmans to leave Cincinnati Oct. 11, stopping at Chattanooga en rout". The officers of the Lackawanna are jubilant over the announcement that an entirely new Pullman equipment is to be installed nt once on that line between Chicago and New York. The outfit consists of sixteen Pullmans of twelve, fourteen and sixteen sections, and includes several observation cars. The new equipment represents an outlay of nearly half a million dollars, and wiil supply a service equal to that afforded by the non-differential lines. Among the shipments over the Lake Shore that passed through Cleveland on Sunday and Monday were four cars of Asiatic silk. There were two car's attached to the fast New York and Chicago passenger train No. 16 on Sunday and two on the same train for Monday. Heretofore the company has refrained from handling any freight whatever on their fast trains. The consignment had to reach New York on a certain date, and it is said the Lake Shore and New York Central received $1,000 per car for the service. In his address before the Southern Railway Aerents' Association, General Passenger Agent Hardwick. of the Southern Railway Company, put forth the claim of Solomon to be considered the first traffic manager In history, because he inaugurated lines of traffic between various ports of the Mediterranean and Red seas 1,000 years B. C. A young man in the passenger department of the Pennsylvania lines WOSl disputes this claim, and insists that the honor belongs to Noah, who ran the first personally conducted tour ages before the birth of Solomon. Among the subjects under consideration by tke train rules committee of the American Railway Association, now in session in New York, is that of recommending that trains on all double track railroads be operated without train orders. This method of operation is comparatively new to this country, and is possible only on railroads provided with the block system operated from telegraph towers. The Burlington was the first in this country to abolish train orders over any considerable portion of its lines, and so far as known it is the only company using the system to any considerable extent. The Railway World wisely doubts if the slight concession in grain carrying rates granted at the requeal of New York exporters by the trunk lines will have any appreciable effect on the business. It shows by figures the enormous and rapid growth of wheat production in the Southwest since 1K96 nearly 4oo per cent. all finding its cheapest utlet through gulf ports. The center f heaviest wheat production has moved both north and south, and while the southern product will seek the gulf ports the wheat from the far northern field will reach the seaboard through Montreal via the Canada trunk lines. The Big Four last Sunday gave the people an illustration f the rapidity with which construction work may be effected under stress of necessity. It had built a ih w steel bridge to span Iaramie creek at Houston, O.. and had it placed on stilts beside the old structure. Sunday morning after No. 19 had passed, when no other trains were scheduled for some time, the old bridge was pulled out of the way. an engine having been hitched to it, and the new steel one pulled int.. position. The time required for both jobs was just thirty-seven minutes. It is believed this feat establishes a new record for rapid work. Traffic was not interrupted for a minute. The Cincinnati Times-Star says: "It is learned uuthortatlvely In legal circles that John D. Rockefeller, operating through his brother, William, and others, settled the controversy between the Harriman and the Keene interests in the Union and Southern Pacific companies and that the ending of the litigation is only part of a general movement for the improvement of the stock market. While nothing ian be learned in Cincinnati of the terms of the settlement between the contending Interests, it is generally believed that there has been such an agreement as to secure in harmonious management the control of the transcontinental trade of the entire country." A Bostonian who has been a close observer of events and conditions in the financial, industrial and railroad world thinks all that is unsatisfactory in existing conditions is due to the fact that the men at the head of affairs have been overworked, leaving it to be inferred that the men now in control have overtaxed themselves by at tempting too much, and that they are no longer at their best. He says there is a dearth of trained young men to take the places of the overworked brains that are now running things, and asks whence are to come the successors of Hill. Harriman and others. In his opinion rest is imperative aud the next few years will see greater changes in the personal forces governing financial and railroad affairs than have taken place in the past decade. During the past year the railroad companies have been put to enormous expense in renewing equipment and In making additions to meet the growing requirements of trnffic. Orders were so large that they exceeded the capacity of the car building companies to fill them promptly, and they were able to dictate prices, which. In some eases were almost extortionate. Now that the roads have become better supplied they have Intimated very plainly to the builders that future orders will only be placed when prices are made more reasonable. The builders have reaped a rich harvest from the pressing necessities of the railroads, but the indications now are that in th" future more reasonable prices will prevail otherwise orders for new equipment will be limited to actual and imperative needs. The sliding side-door cars with which the Illinois Central has been partially equipped are giving great satisfaction. The cars have twelve sliding doors on each side, opening opposite sections of eight seats with aisles on both sides, just inside the doors, extending the full length of the car. The doors are operated by mechanism concealed in the walls of the cars, so that all chii be opened or shut together or separately by the trainmen from either the end or side of the car. In these cars passengers are not compelled to crowd into the central aisle on entering or leaving, but by the use of the set ral side doo:s a full car can be emptied in one-sixth the time nc C aTy to clear a car of the enddoor pattern. The cars are made with sie. 1 frames and are from 6.000 to 10.000 pounds lighter than the old-fashi. wooden construction. The following list of railway undertakings among others are held in abeyance owing to the uncertain conditions governing the money market: The financing of the improvenii Ota on the Southern Pacific the i work on the Kew York Central terminals and the financing thereof; the terminal plans ot the Wabash in Kansas City. Toledo and elsewhere; the extension of the Wheeling A- Like Krie across West Virginia; the :.eiiiK of the Wabash Wheeling extension into Pittsburg; the building of the projected lines to make the Pere Marquette a trunk line from Chicago to Buffalo; the complete organization and financing of the I new trunk line down the Mississippi va!lev, j the third division of the Rock Island system; the readjustment of the railroad and financial josition of the Seaboard Air-line; I double tracking and other heavy work of similar kind on the St. Paul. Burlington and other standard lines in the middle and north ern West; the undertaking to unite railroad terminal properties on the Niagara frontier and build a union passenger station in Buffalo. FORT WAYNE MAN ROBBED. Exciting; Encounter with a Thief in t li Corridor of u Hotel. CHICAGO, Sept. 29-Hotel thieves were surprised at work in the Sherman house early to-day and one of them was captured after an exciting fight in the corridor. A short time later all exits were guarded in an effort to trap the second marauder. Clark Berring observed a welldressed man coming from the room of L. A. Worth, a coal merchant of Port Wayne. Ind.. and grappled with him. Guests rushed from their rooms and joined In the Cnaae that ensued after Berring had been kncked down the stairs. The thief was captured at the entrance to the hotel and jewelry valued at .5u and $250 In money, the property of Worth, was found upon him. The house was searched In vain for the second thief. The captured thief gave his name as Charles Foster, of Tiffin, O. Efforts will be made to identify the prisoner there.

CHAFTKÜ WVl. A HOT I -AY DI N E W YORK. WITH NEWS OF AN INTERESTING MARRIAGE. At 5 o'clock that day the prow of the Viluca cut the waters of Newport harbor around Goat island, and pointed for New York. ' Now is your time." said Mrs. Drelmer to Mauburn. "I'm sure the girl likes you, and this row with the Milbreys has cut off any chance that cub had. Why not propose to her to-night?" "I have seemed to be getting on." answered Mauburn. "But wait a bit. There's that confounded girl over there. No telling what she ll do. She might knock things on the head any moment." "Aids the more reason for prompt action, and there couldn't very well be anything to hurt you." "By Jove! that's so; there couldn't, very well, could there? I'll take your advice." And so it befell that Mauburn and Miss Bines sat late on deck that night, and under the witchery of a moon that must long since have become hardened to the spectacle, the old, old story was told, to the accompaniment of the engine's muffled throb, and the soft purring of the silver waters as they slipped by the boat and blended with the creamy track astern. So little variation was there in the time-worn tale, and In the maid's reception of it, that neither need here be told of in detail. Nor were the proceedings next morning less tamely orthodox. Mrs. Bines managed to forget her relationship of elder sister to the poor long enough to behave as a mother ought when the heart of her daughter has been given into a true love's keeping. Percival deported himself cordially. "I'm really glad to hear it," he said to Mauburn. "I'm sure you'll make sis as good a husband as she'll make you a wife; and that's very good, indeed. Let's fracture a cold quart to the future Lady Casselthorpe." "And to the future Lord Casselthorpe:" added Mrs. Drelmer, who was warmly enthusiastic. "Such a brilliant match," she murmured to Percival. when they had touched glasses in the after cabin. "1 know more than one N. w York girl who'd have jumped at the chance." "We 11 try to bear our honors modestly," ho answered her. The yacht lay at her anchorage in the Hast river. Percival made preparations to go ashore with his mother. "Stay hern with the turtle doves,' he said to Mrs. Drelmer, "far enough off, of course, to let them coo, and I'll be back with any people I can pick up for a cruise." "Trust me to contract the visual and aural infirmities of the ideal chaperone." was Mrs. Drelmer's cheerful response "And if you should run across that poor dear of a husband of mine, tell htm not to slave himself to death for this thoughtless butterflv of a wife, who toils not, neither doea sh."- spin. Tell him," she added, "that I'm playing dragon to ihis engaged couple. It will cheer up the pooff dear." The city was a fiery furnace. But its prisoners were riot exempt from its heat, like certain holy ones of old. On the dock wh re Percival and his mother landed was a listless throng of them, gasping for the faint little breezes that now and therf Uew in from the water. A worn woman with unkempt hair, her waist flung open at the neck, sat in a spot of shade, and soothed a baby already grown too weak to be fretful. Mrs. Bines spoke to her, while Percival bought a morning paper from a tiny newsboy, who held his complete attire under one arm, his papers under the other, and his pennies in his mouth, keeping, meantime, a shifty side glanc e on the policeman a block away, who might he expected to interfere with his contemplated plung". "That poor soul's been there all night," said Mrs. Bines. "She's afraid her baby's going to die; and yet she was so cheerful and polite about it, and when I gave her some money the poor thing blushed. I told her to bring the baby down to the floating hospital to-morrow, but 1 mistrust it won't be alive, and oh, there's an ambulance backed up to the sidewalk; see what the matter is." As Percival pushed through the outer edge of the crowd, a battered wreck of a man past middle age was being lifted into the ambulance. His eyes were closed, his face a dead, chalky white, and his body hung limp. "Sunstroke?" asked Percival. The overworked ambulance surgeon, who seemed himself to be in need of help, looked up. "Nope; this is a case of plain starvation. I'm nearer sunstroke myself than he is not a wink of sleep for two nights now. Fiftytwo runs since yesterday at this time, and the bell still ringing. Gee! but it's hot. This lad won't ever care about the weather again, though," he concluded, jumping on to the rear step and grasping the rails on either side, while the driver clanged his gong and started off. "Was it sunstroke?" asked Mrs. Bines. "Man with stomach trouble," answered her son, shortly. "They're so careless about what they eat this hot weather," Mrs. Bines began, as they walked toward a carriage; "all sorts of heavy foods and green fruit" "Well, if you must know, this one had been careless enough not to eat anything at all. He was starved." "Oh, dear! What a place! here people are starving, and look at us! Why. we wasted enough from breakfast to feed a small family. It isn't right. They never would allow such a thing in Montana City." They entered the carriage and were driven slowly up a side street where slovenly women idled in windows and doorways aiid halfnaked children chased excitedly after the icewagons. "I used to think it wasn't right mvself until 1 learned not to question the ways of Providence." "Providence, your grandmother! Look at those poor little mites fighting for that ice: " "We have to accept it. It seems to be proof of the Creator's versatility. It isn't every one who would be nervy enough and original enough to mak- a world where people starve to death right beside those who hare too much." "That's rubbish!" "You're blaaphemoog! and you're overwrought about the few cases of Heed here. Think of those two million people that have just starved to death in India." "Thai wasn't my fault. ' "Exactly; if you'd been there the list might have been cut down four or five thousand; not more. It was the fault of whoever makes the weather. It didn't rain and their curry crop failed or whatever they rnis and there you are; aud we couldn't help matters any by starving ourselves to death." "Well. I know of a few matters here I can help. Aud just look at all those empty houses boarded up!" she cried later, as they crossed Madison avenue. "Those noor ' things bake themselves t death .!vn in , their little ovens, and these great cool places I are all shut up. Why. that poor little baby's ; hands were just like bird's claws." Well, don't take your sociology too sei t it . j i nousiy. rerciai warneu nor. as they reached the hotel. "Being philanthropic is obeying an instinct just as selfish as any of the others. A little of it i. UII right but don't be a slave to your passions. And be careful of your health." In his mail at the Hightower was a note from Mrs. Akomit: "New London, Julv 0, "You Dear Thoughtful Man 1 11 be delighted, and the aunt, a worthy sister of the .l. ar bishop, has consented. She is an acidulous maiden person with ultra-ritualistic tendencies. At present she is strong on the reunion of Christendom, and holds that the Anglican must b the unifying medium of the two religious extremes. So don't say I didn't warn you fairly. She will, however, impart an air of Episcopalian propriety to that naughty yacht of yours something sadly needed if 1 am to believe the tales 1 hear about its little voyages to nowhere In particular. "Babe sends her love, and says to tell Tncle Percibal' that the ocean tastes 'all nassy.' She stood upon the beach yesterday after making this discovery involuntarily, and proscribed it with one magnificent wave of her hand and a brief exclamation of disgust turned her back disrespectfully upon a body of water that is said to cover two-thirds or Is it three-fourths? of the earth's surface. Think of it. She seemed to suspect that she had been imposed Uxm In the matte r of Its taste, and Is goiug to fell the janitor directly we get home, m order

that the guilty ones may be seen to. Her little gesture of dismissal was superbly contemptuous. I wish you had been with me to watch her. Yes. the bathing suit does have little touches of red, and red but this j will never do. Give us a day's notice, and believe me. sincerely, "FLORENCE VERDON AKEMIT. "P. S. Bain' is on the back of my chair.

cuddling down in my neck, and says. 'Send him your love, t, Mommie. Now don't you forget.' " He telegraphed Mrs. Akemit: "Will reach New London to-morrow. Assure your aunt of my delight at her acceptance. I have long held that the reunion must come as she thinks it will." Then he ventured into the heat and glare of Broadway where humanity stewed and wilted. At Thirty-second street he ran into Burman. with whom he had all but cornered wheat. "You're the man I wanted to see," said Percival. Hurry and look! I'm melting fast." "Come off on the yacht." "Ml preserver! I was just going down to the Oriental, but your dug-out wins me hands down. Come Into this poor man's club. I must have a cold drink taller than a church steeple." "Anybody else in town we can take?" "Theres Billy Yelverton our chewinggum friend; just off the Lucania last night; and Eddie Arledge and his wife. They're in town because Eddie was up in supplementary or something some low, coarse brute of a tradesman wanted his old bill Paid, and wouldn't believe Eddie when he said he couldn't spare the money. Eddie is about as lively as a dish of cold breakfast food, but his wife is all right, al". right. Hetiring from the footlights' glare didu't spoil Mrs. E. Wadsworth Arledge not so you could notice it." "Well, see Eddie if you can, and I'll find Yelverton; he's probably at the hotel yet; and meet me there by 5, so we can get out of this little amateur hell." "And quit trying to save that collar," urged Burman, as they parted; "you look foolisber than a horse in a straw hat with it on anyway. Let it go aud tuck in your handkerchief like the rest of us. See you at 5!" At the hour named the party had .gath ered. Percival, Arledge and his lively wife. Yelverton. who enjoyed the rare distinction of having lost money to Percival and Bur man. East they drove through the street where less fortunate mortals panted in the dead afternoon shade, and out on to the dock, where the Vihica's naphtha launch presently put them aboard that sumptuous craft. A little breeze there made the heat less oppressive. "We'll be under way as soon as they fetch that luggage out." Percival assured his guest.-. "It s been frightfully oppressive all day. even out here." said Mrs. Drelmer, "but the engaged ones haven't lost their tempers once, even if the day was trying. And really they're the most unemotional and matter-of-fact couple I ever saw. Oh! do give me tnat stack of papers until I catch up with the news again." Percival relinquished to her the evening papers he had bought before leaving the hotel, and Mrs. Drelmer in the awninged shade at the stern of the boat was soon running through them. The others had gone below, where Percival was allotting staterooms, and urging every one to "order whatever cold stuff you like and get into as few things as the law allows. For my part. I'd like to wear nothing but a cold bath." Mrs. Drelmer suddenly betrayed signs of excitement. She sat up straight in the wicker deck chair, glanced down a column of her newspap.-r, and then looked up. Mauburn's head appeared out of the cabin's gloom. He was still speaking to some one below. Mrs. Drelmer rattled the paper and waved it at him. He came up the stairs. "What's the row?" "Read it!" He took the paper and glanced at the headlines. "1 knew she'd do it. A chap always comes up with something of that sort, and I was beginning to feel so chippy!" He read: "London. July 30. Lord Casselthorpe to-day wed Miss 'Connie' Burke, the musichall singer who has been appearing at the Alhambra. The marriage was performed, by special license, at St. Michaels Church, Chester square. London, the Rev. Canon M. cklin. sub-dean of the Chapel Royal, officiating. The honeymoon will be spent at the townhouse of the groom, in York Terrace. Lord Casselthorpe has long been known as the blackest sheep of the British peerage, being called the 'Coster Peer' on account of his unconventional language, his coarse manner and slovenly attire. Two years ago he was warned off Newmarket Heath and the British turf by th Jockey Club. He is eighty-eight years old. The bride, like some other lights of the music hall who have become the consorts of Britain's hereditary legislators, has enjoyed considerable antenuptial celebrity among the gilded youth of the metropolis, and is said to have been especially admired at one time by the next in line rf this illustrious family, the Hon. Cecil G. H. Mauburn. "The Hon. Cecil G. H. Mauburn, mentioned in the above cable dispatch, has been rather well known in New Y'ork society for two years past. His engagement to the daughter of a Montana mining magnate, not long deceased, has been persistently rumored." Mauburn was pale under his freckles. "Haven't they seen it yet?" "I don't think so," she answered. "We might drop these papers over the rail here." "That's rot, Mrs. Drelmer; it's sure to be talked of, and anyway I don't want to be sneaky, you know." Percival came up from the cabin with a paper in his hand. "I see you have it. too." he said, smiling. "Burman just handed me this." "Isn t it perfectly disreputable!" exclaimed Mrs. Drelmer. "Whv? 1 only hope I'll have as much Interest in life by the time I'm that age." "But how will your sister take it?" asked Mauburn; "she may be afraid this will knock mv title on the head, you know." "Oh. 1 see," said Percival; "I hadn't thought of that." "Only it can't." continued Mauburn. "Hang it all. that blasted old beggar will be eighty-nine, vou know, in a fortnight. There simply can't be any issue of the marriage, and that that blasted" "Better not try to describe her while I'm by: you know," said Mrs. Drelmer, sympathetically. 1 Well his wife you know, will simply worry him into the grave a bit sooner. I fancv that's all can poibly come of It." "Well, old man," said Percival. "I don't pretend to know the workings of my sisI er 's mind, but you ought to be able to win a girl on your own merits, title or no title." "Awfully good of you. old chap. I'm sure she does care for me. "But of course it will be only fair to sis to lav the matter before her just as it is." "To sure!" Mauburn aflff nt d. "And now. thank the Lord, we're under wav Doesn't that breeze save your life, though? We'll eat here on d"ek." The Vlluea swung into midstream, and was soon raciug to the north with a crowded Fall River boat. "But anyway." concluded Percival. after he had explained Mauburn's position to his sister, "he's a good fellow, and if you suit each other even the unexpected wouldn't riake any difference." "Of course not," she assented. " 'the rank is but the guinea's stamp.' I know but I w in't meaning to be married for quite a time yet. anyw iy it's such fun just being engaged. '' "A mint julep?" Mauburn was inquiring of one who had proposed it. "Does it have whisky in it?" . . "It does," replied Percival, overhearing the question; "whisky may be said to pervade, even to infest it. Try live or six. old man. that man mak. a great one-night trouble cure. And I ant ha VC any one with troubles on this Cunarder not for the next thirty davs. I need cneeriuineag ana rest for a long time after this day in town. Ah!

There was a full attendance. Competition was keen and the advances were mixed. Prices at the close were film. During- the series fine merinos were unchanged and faulty merinos were irregular throughout, but closed better. Scoureds and greasles were in strong demand and closed unchanged to 5 per cent, higher than the last series. Fine cross-bred, which were unchanged at the opening, subsequently, with greasles, advanced 5 per cent. Medium crosstreds opened 5 per cent, to 7 Vi per cent., and coarse 10 per cent, higher, and final rates were, respectively, 10. and Is per cent, above the July average prices.
