Seventy-three cars were in. Demand showed improve ment, several buyers that have been par tially inactive of late coming in again. The trust was a moderate buyer, Dickin son took some for Chicago and local ele vators were inclined to buy. Eievator stocks have been increasing and there is disposition to buy more freely for storage as the belief appears to be strengthening that local crushers will ultimately need more flax on this crop than is adequately represented by local supplies. This ele vator Inquiry is confined to the best re jected lots. In No. 1 seed, there was business at $1.61. Rejected sold to within 9%c of No. 1 price for selections, the best relative figure for some time, and much of this grade brought I2c under No, 1. Trades were reported at $1.51% down to $1.44.

Bar silver, New York 64% 63 & Call money, New York ....... 2 -4 3-3% NEW YORK, Nov. 27.—Selling to take profits again overcame the market to day, and the general level of stock prices is lower than it was last night. The day's net changes, which are fractional, except in a few stocks, give no :idea of the wide movement of prices during the day nor of the notable strength saown at times by a few stocks. This is due to the fact that the market was general ly strong in the early "dealings and was only carried below last night's level by a very sharp reaction, which also reduced the gains of the strong stocks. The no tably strong points were in the coalers. Southern Railway preferred, Baltimore & Ohio, Southern Pacific and 1 the Ameri can Smelting stocks....The movement in the coalers was helped" by "the "wintry weather reported. The movement caused the revival of old rumors of consolida tion or change of control, the effect being notably. manifest In New Jersey Central - which rose 6 points, to 149, reacting I%' The business in the group was small ex cept in the Readings,--which reflecting very heavy and concentrated buying The first preferred rose at one time 2%, and closed a point lower. Large buying con tinued of Southern Railway preferred and rumors continued of a coming in crease in the dividend and dissolution of the voting trust. This was. about the only stock except the Denver & Rio Grandes of yesterday's : strong group which held out today. American Smelt ing stocks rose 2% and 1% for the com mon and preferred on talk of the absorp tion of the principal competing interest International Paper rose 4 points with out explanation. Shortly before the close very large buying of Southern Pacific came into force, the individual transac tions running from 1 to 6,000 shares, and lifting the stock 2 points during the ear ly part of the day, while the general market was strong, and steel and copper stocks were weak. The steel stocks showed a disposition to Tally, especially Steel and Wire, which got above 44 at one time. The stock .'closed unchanged. Amalgamated Copper -was very heavily sold and late In the d^y rfell to 94% and closed with a net loss, ,of. %. The gen eral reaction in the market was not ac companied by any unfavorable develop ment in the general conditions, but the disappointment of ■" ' some ; speculators Some of them thought that tor" ay's London stock exchange settlement would develon a very heavy short interest In Americans On the contrary, it was "shown that quite a large long account existed in Ameri cans, and that London sold stocks here for the new account. Another speculative assumption was that--Chicago and the est had been prevented -yesterday, by the interruption of wire communications from buying very largely,' but the op portunity of today was not taken ad vantage ofv, Conditions Jn the money market continue very easy, in spite of the gain by the subtr-easury from the ™. i on routine operations and the ao proach of the monthly settlement period which -usually makes demands on the ?r,T er ™ arket- The action of the ? money and exchange markets in ■ responses to London s operations in stocks suggests £lK London s speculative operations here X? ft ( ?l witll local m oney mar kef.facilities.

Money was in strong demand, though quotations were unaltered. Discounts were harder. The bank did a large business in discounts at 4 per cent and lent some money at 4% per cent. The bank lost £150,000 to Egypt and £18,000 to France. Silver was firmer on Chinese buying as the Philip pine government has imposed a 10 per cent export duty on Mexican dollars.

Col., Nov. 27.—The Rocky Mountain * News prints the reply of Sheriff Freeman, of Lincoln, to the let ter of District Attorney McAllister, ot Colorado Sprlngß, Col., concerning the prosecution of the persons who lynched . Preston Porter at Llmon, Col., recently. After telling of how he was influenced into taking Porter from Denver to Llmon by the assurance of leading citizens of Lincoln, Col., that he would be allowed to pass through Lincoln unmolested to Hugo, where he would be allowed to place Porter In Jail, Sheriff Freeman de clares that it would be impossible to get v a jury in Lincoln or any . adjoining : r county that would convict .^ any igUfc; charged with complicity in the burning of Porter. He said:7 "I do not justify the murder, v but I do object- to having your and 'Gov. Thomas saddle the blame of this burn ing on me and I will not involve Liwoln county in a needless; and fruitless ■ liti-: gation against its own citizens." 7.7.
