Government Weather Report.
WAR DEPARTMENT, OFFICE OF CHIEF SIGNAL
OFFICER WAsHsGros, 1890 A. NJ, April IA
Synopsis for the past "a hours; The barometer
has continued low, with only slight rise on
the lakes and Eastern States. Il has fallen a
little, but is now rising In the Mississippi valley
and has fallen very rapidly with threatening
weather and light rains In the Southern Atlantic
States. The pressure Is stationary and rising
on the Pacific coast The temperature Is slightly
higher In the Northwest, with a heavy snow
storm In Western Nebraska.
Fresh and gentle northeasterly winds pre-
vailed on Thursday on Lake Michigan, and have
now extended 10 Lake Erie and the Ohio Valley.
The clouds almost entirely cleared away yester-
day north Of Virginia and Tennessee, but are
now replaced by increasing haziness.
Probdbtttties.-It Is probable that the baro-
meter will continue to rise in the Northwest and
the lakes with northeasterly winds. Threaten
ing weather. with light rains in some few locali-
ties, will probably be experienced on Central
Valley and in the Middle and Southern Atlantic
States. No serious disturbance Is anticipated
during Friday.
The President Not to visit California at
Present.
WASHINGTON, April AT has been erro-
neously stated that the President has determined
TO visit the Pacific Coast toward the close of the
present month. On inquiry at the Executive
Mansion to-day 1t was ascertained that he has
deferred his visit until fall. Public duties will
detain him here in the meantime, as he has fre-
quently to be consulted In relation to business
before the Joint High Commission, and, besides,
the enforcement of the Ku-klux bill soon to be-
come law will require his personal attention at
Washington.

BOSTON's SENSATION.

The French Fair-Magnihcent Scene at
the Boston Theatre-Great Gathering of
Beauty, Wealth, Fashion, and Dlstinc-
tion.
Boston talks, thinks, and dreams of nothing
but the French Fair. Her newspapers are full Of
the subject, and on seeing the accounts the
triumphs of our great Sanitary Fair In 1864 are
brought TO mind. Boston must try again, how
Lever, and many times, before she can rival the
completeness of that wonderful bazaar. We
take the following from the TraUelLer of Wed
nesdaY;-
The plans and efforts that for many weeks
have occupied, more or less directly, the minds
and sympathies OF so many ladies and gentle
men, not only of Boston and vicinity, but Of
yyarious sections OF Massachusetts and other
States, last evening reached its elimination In
the formal opening, at the Boston Theatre, of
one Of the most extensive, brilliant, and
RromisiDg fairs that this city has ever looked
upon. The Idea Of ahordlng aid to the
suffering French by means OF a grand fair
/ was first carried into effective acLion late
In November or early In December by Mr..
Frederic H. Viaux, the secretary Of AN executive
3icommittee which was appointed u nave general
management OF the affair. The public are more
or less familiar, through the press, with the
Numerous meetings this committee have held,
n OF their action, and the contributions received
In aid from time 10 time. Very much has been
ldone, also, as is known TO most by means OF con-
certs at several OF the hotels, amateur theatrical
i performances, etc. As result of the commit
I tees protracted efforts and the generous and
charitable cooperation Of the ladies represent
/ ing the various tables promised, no doubt ex
4 listed that the event would be all that the most
lsanguine could desire.
VI The arrangements were of the most metho-
dical and complete character, aud nothing was
left undone which could In any manner add u
the attractiveness or success Of the fair. Early
Monday morning the work Of preparing the
theatre commenced. The parquette was iloored
over, and gradually the various tables, stands
and decorations were placed In position. But
II Was not until yesterday noon that the pre-
paratons were 80 far advanced that the lad
began 10 spread out and arrange their stores

FINANOE AND COMMERCE..
EVENING TELEGRAPH OFFICE, I
Friday, April IA, 1911,

There Is gradually Increasing change In
some of the leading features of our money
market, and II now looks as II capital, In few
days more, would be largely In excess of de-
mand. The banks are very free lenders, both
on call and time loans, and some difficulty Is
experienced In placing all the funds available at
what are considered remuneratlve rates. Call
loans cannot be quoted above per cent, the
range being 56D6 per cent, according TO collate-
rails. Prime commercial paper is In demand,
and scarce at 7C071I per cent.
The gold market Is stronger, the premium
having been slightly stiffened by the large bids
for the Treasury gold yesterday. The range this
morning has been from llOS@ll0H, closing at
the latter
Government bonds are in good demand and
prices are about d per cent. higher all through
the list.
Stocks this morning were unusually active
and prices rampant City O., new sold at l0l d
ODl0i9I. Lehigh gold loan was active and ad-
yapced TO 9O1G, with sales:
Reading was steady, selling freely at "a 1850
54'3l, closing at the latter. Pennsylvania was
very strong, and sold heavily at 646G6511,
closing at the latter, an advance OF y. Phila-
delphia and Erie was In great demand aud high
er, with sales ranging from 2Ss< <0D291a, an ad-
vance OF i. Sales OF Northern Central at AZ;
Iebieh Valley at 60; Camden and Amboy at
ll81S, and and Little Schuylkill at As. 451S was
bid for Catawissa preferred and 52M for
Minehill.
In Canal shares there was a firm feeling, but
| not much movement. Sales of Schuylkill pre-
feued at 17z60lS1G, closing at the latter. 355S
was bid for Lehigh.
In the balance OF the list there were large sales
of Hestonyille Railway at 201[@2O5s, and Me-
chanics' Bank at 321E.
NEW LOAN OF THE UNITED STATES.
The subscriptions TO the new five per cent.

reach 5000 900 coo by the time the new bonds
are ready for delivery In May. The proposals
Of the Secretary Of the Treasury win then be
changed to the following programme;-
First. Bonds 20 the amount OF $500, 100000,

There are no bills Of importance In the Legisla-
ture which cannot be readily passed. except the
six measures objected 10 by the Republic ans,
of which three are TO strengthen kiDg rule In
New York, and two to establish Ring rule In
Buffalo. None of these are vital to the Demo-
cratic arty or can add one honest voter 10 It's

ditabe TO the Democratic party that each aud
all of these bills do not encounter opposition In
the ranks OF that eerYie orRanization.

have applied To Judge Brady In the Supreme
Court for a mdnddniuS ordering Mr.. Booth, on
payment Of admission fees aud on their be-
having themselves, 10 admit them TO his per-

There appeared In the Season q severe article
on one of Mr.. Booths performances and when
AT the box Office they testify that though they
offered their money they we're refused tickets
by the treasurer, acting as he said, under
orders; and when from another source tickets
were procured, the dOOrkeeper refused TO admit
them also acting under orders.
They claim that Booths Theatre Is public
licensed place of entertainment, into which they
had a right Of entrance on complying with the
general rules as to payment and order, and that
the exclusion was dictated in consequence OF
the criticism, which they claim ~ be fair, app
pearing In the paper. Judge Brady granted an
alternative mdnddn,iis In each case.
