I.ewls.ehanipion checker player of Susquehanna county, recent ly challenged John S. Carmlehael, of Seranton, to piny him a series of games lor $100 a side, the match to come off In Koiest City. Carmlehael has re fused, alleging that he was not well used, while playing hero before one time. The Foiest City News, in Its last issue, admits that we did not take the Scran tun man to our bosom, figur atively speaking, but says that other wise we sought to make things pleas ant for him, and Infers that Mr. Car mlehael mistook an alligator for a log when he first met Lewis, and has made up his mind this time that it Is easier to walk around the obstacle than to try to put it out of his way. But Mr. 'Carmlehael may be heard from yet. At an:- event, there are those In For est Cltv who know that he is a very good player and that he has the scalp of many a victim dangling at his belt, among the others, we are sorry to say, being that of our own county cham pion.

Now York, Dee. 1C The hardening of the rate for call money has taken the heart out of speculation In secur ities for the time being. The rate for call money held firm nt it per cent, all day today until near the close of the stock market, when there wete trans actions at 3 per cent, with offerings at 14. The Union Pacific reorganization committee today paid Into the sub treasury SS, 500,000 In cash, the credit balance of that Institution at the clear ing house being $7,677.73!!. It Is the general belief In banking circles that call money will not yield below 3 per cent, l.efore the end of tho vear and may rule higher. The accumulation of fundi in nntlclpatlo'n of January dis bursements of dividends nnd in the In terest will make further demnnds on the monev market. Hankers depre cate the Idea that there is any strin gency of money In prospect, In view of the fact that the government will ledeem the eurteney to the amount of over S69.00O.OU0 on December 21 before the next Installment Is due on tho 1'nion Pacific payment. Kates for time money for the shorter periods were marked up today, as well as those for call money, the quotations being 34a4 per cent, for 60 and 90 days. Prices for .some stocks rose nt one time above yesterday's closing level, but all weak ened before the close. The extreme declines in a sreat many cases were a point or over and in some cases net losses exceed a point. Total sales were 332.000 shares.
