MARKET IS VERY DULL
Reports of Gross Railway Earnings
Begin to Show Marked Im
provement Call Money
Continues Firm.
NEW YORK. Oct. 1. A' further hrtnk
ge continued today In the volume of busi
ness transacted at th 8tock Exchange.
Th almost stagnant condition of the mar
ket I attributed to th purpose rm th part
of larg financial Interest to await the cut
oome of tb election 1 efor entering on
committment. While thl would Indicate
a neglected market for over a month to
come. It seldom happens that such absolute
dullness as that of today la prolonged for
such a period. That th market awaits a
new Initiative after the progressive settle
ment into It present stagnation ! evident.
Incidents of anr Interest or Importance
were scare today. Call money continued
to rule somewhat firmer than of late, as
Is not unusual In New York following a
periodical financial settlement In contrast
with th almost Immedlat response on
foreign money to the passing of the settle
ment day. Thus discounts were marked
doan today In Berlin and Paris and In Lon
don the easing tendency yesterday even
anticipated the October 1 date.
In addition to the regular quarterly pay
ment the New Tork market had to finance
a 811.625.000 Installment of subscriptions
for Northern Pacific stock. Th Interior
also continues to make requirements on
New York for currency. Shipments are
being made by express and interior banks
also draw on their correspondent for pay
ing obligations to the Government, a Indi
cated by the gain of $4,102,000 made by
the ubtreaury from th bank since last
Fr:day.
Reports of railroad net earnings for Aug
ust, while showing effective economies in
operating expenses, left large margin of
net decreaacs still to be overcome. In the
reporta of groa earnings of railroads for
a later period there begins to appear
marked Improvement In comparison with
last year. Not only Is the growth of earn
ings this year over earlier montha at work
In the comparison, but als the poorer traf
fic of last year, which began to develop as
affairs approached the October crisis.
In the absence of news development
there was a disposition to fall back, on
rumors In the attempt to move prices.
Those affecting th supposed Harrlman
intentions toward the Uould group were
heard again today. The Union PacHlo Se
curities Company project was also dis
cussed again. These proved but feeble fac
tor In th market, which was almost
motionless throughout most of tbe ses
sion. Bonds were steady. Total sales par
value. $2,984,000. United States bonds were
unchanged on call.

OLDEST OFFICE BOY.
Quietly Celebrates In Xew Jersey
His 89th Birthday.
Trenton (X. J.) Dispatch.
Samuel Brackett, said to be the oldest
office boy in the world. Is now 89 year.
He is employed in the office of. the anvil
works owned by Mrs. Clark Fisher, and
he is known as an "heirloom" of the
family, havinr been In its emploj for
the laat 60 years. He now occupies the
eame position he did when he first went
to work.
"'Strict attention to business is the way
to succeed in this world," says Brackett.
That is why I did not want a lot of
fuss made over my birthday. Some of
my friends wanted to arrange a big- cele
bration, but I was afraid it would take
my mind and too much of my time from
my office duties."
Brackett was a pupil In the Sunday
school class of Mark Fisher in 1839 when
Mr. Fisher had a large tannery in Port
land, Maine. As he seemed to be a
bright lad, Mr. Fisher put him to work in
bis office. When his employer moved to
Trenton, in 1842 and helped to establish
the Fisher & Norris anvil works "Sam
my" accompanied him. Instead of stay
ing in the office, he went into the shops.
When advancing years and injuries that
had made him slightly lame unfitted
Brackett for arduoue toll the late Captain
Clark Fisher, Mark Fieher's son. wanted
to pension him, but as the veteran anvil
maker declared he was still able to work,
he was put in the office.
Brackett is prominent in the Masonio
fraternity. He is a past master of Tren
ton Lodge No. 6, A. F. & A. M.; is a
member of Oebal Council No. S, Royal
and Select Masons; is past high priest of
Three Times Three Chapter, Royal Arch
Masons, and for 80 years was recorder of
Palestine Commandery, Knights Templar.
Mrs. Fisher, Bracken's employer, is
well known in society In New Tork and
Trenton, and is designated by manufac
turers aa the "Anvil Queen." Because of
her various achievements she was pro
