THE STOCK M\RKET.
PLAIN TALK.
Mr. Sallhaa el IIMaaia Makaa a Few Rtaarks
Apptrtsiaiag la *r. Bryaa at Nebraska.
"When politicians fall out the peo-
ple learn the truth" Is about as good
a max^m as "when thieves fall out,
just people get their dues " With
Committeeman Sullivan of llllnoia
and Perpetual Candidate Bryan of
Nebraska It is a case of politicians
tailing out. Bryan chargea the dem-
c crate In control of the party in Illi-
nois are corrupt politician#. Be
kitcs considerable evidence to prove
the truth of this. Sullivan chargea
tna the men Bryan is woming with
ia Illinois are notoriously corrupt,
and piovea It.
Ujt in the controversy, what Is oi
chief interest la Sullivan's eatimate
el Bryan, who ia nothing more or less
than a professional politician. It Is
tot keenest criticism on record and
••Air. Bryan say.: My political a*
.et .. the confidence the people have!
11 my sincerity' Mr. Biyau has.
x «.,( .ed tne democratic party to de-1
f at, the second a worse defeat than
tic flr t If he Is proud of thai evi-
dence ot the people's confidence in
b.s sincerity he is welcome to it But
bisboaat of sincerity menu former
ton .deration. Be Insinuates that I
mate money out of politics, and thai
b.s sincerity therefore compels him
t, oppose ®y participation in demo
cratic affairs. The plain Inference is
that Mr. Bryan thinks It wrong to
maae money out of pollt c«. This
ttoaa*. of his puts the stamp ot insin-
cerity all over b'm If Mr. Bry;a
thinks it wrong to maae money tut
money. Mr. Bryan has not one dollar
that he ever made out of anything
but poultice. Be tried to be a lawyer.
Be wa* a failure at It. Be tried to
be a newapaper editor. He waa a
failure at that.
'•He Is now a man of property. As
fortunes go be ia a rich man. Every
dollar of his fortune came out of po.-
itics as a stepping stone to the lec-
ture platform Mr. Bryan discovered
many years ago that he could make
1 his political prominence pay. He la
I a abrewd advertiser and in his wav a
snrewd business man. He has dls-
. covered that so long as he ia a candi-
cate for president and a possible
nominee, gifted with the ability to
•reave the flowing sentences into weil
rounded periods, the public will come
to bear him at so much a head. He
Is in politics because it hclpatbe gate
receipts. Like actresses who have
discarded the stolen diamood dodge
for the greater publicity of a divorce
suit, Mr. Bryan will quit running for
j president and will quit politics just
j as oon as he discovers that tome
luther advertising will bring him
m re dollars to the bo* office when
I he la announced to appear on the
stage."

Kansas City, Sept. 10 —The cattle
run last wee* dwindled from fir t to
last, and finally ended witb a total of
01,000 head, including 8000 calves
This supply was several thousand
short of corresponding week a year
ago, while the demand trom all
aources was normal. All kinds hold
about steady except medium to com-
mon grass cattle, which were avoided
as much as possible, aa they always
are. Veal calves advanced 25 to 50
cents, prices on the light weights be-
ing more subject to the volume of re-
ceipts than prices on any other class
ot stock. The run today Is 19,000 cat-
tle and 3000 calvea, about like last
Monday, and the prospects are that
tbe ruu for the week will exceed thai
of last ween. Ottoer markets are
moderately supplied today, and prices
bere are steady. At this season there
are Innumerable small orders for
