EXCHANGE REVIEW.
NEW YORK, December S.-The stock market
was again feverish, with wide and rapid fuc-
tuations and weak to-day, most OF the list show
ing material losses for the day. while in many
cases the lowest prices of the week were
reached Among the larger operators there
was a disposition shown to let the market take
care of itself, and while some of the commits
sion houses were moderate buyers in the early
trading the demand was soon appeased aud
the traders obtained full control. There was a
free liquidation of long accounts among that
element. and as no support was forthcoming
the prices yielded readily. The bears then
came to the front and decided weakness re-
suit ed over the entire list.
Government bonds were dull and steady.
Petroleum opened steady at SSAc.. but after
the first sat,s became weak and declined to
S734c. rally then followed on which the
loss was recovered and the market closed strong
at $3.50.

1t Still Attracts Considerable At
tentfOn.
The Weyermann shooting case has not
yet finished attracting public attention.
Yesterday the father Of the two boys who
had been placed under arrest was re-
leased. During the afternoon Chief
Cuddy and Detective Metzler took
Arthur to the spot where the shooting
had taken place and asked him to ex-
plain all the circumstances. He broke
down and said he was sorry he had
done the deed and afterward he said that
his brother had shot himself. He
acknowledged taking the pistol out of
his trunk before attending the party and
said that Ben had gotten the weapon
away from him and shot himself. When
he was asked what he had done with
the pistol he said that he had thrown it
over the fence or else dropped it.
On the morning Of the shooting when
he was questioned at his residence about
the bleeding of his hand he said that
he had just cut it but he would not say
how he had cut it nor would he answer
any questions about the affair. The father
when asked where the shooting had taken
place said that it had been done only
about two blocks away from their house,
but it was thought at that time that he
was so excited that he did not know
what he was saying. 1t is now thought
that he wanted to cover up the facts and
didn't know exactly how to do it.

Associated Press Dispatches to the HERALD
SAN Francisco, August 24.-The fight
between Peter jackson, the colored
champion heavy weight of Australia, and
George Godfrey, the col ored pugilist of
Boston, which occurred here this even
ing, had been looked forward to with the
greatest interest in sporting circles for
more than a month, and as conse-
quence, the rooms of the California Ath-
letic Club was crowded when the men
stepped into the ring. The contest was
under Marquis of Queensbury rules for
purse of $4,000. Hiram Cook, of this
city, acted as referee. A great difference
in the size Of the two men was very
noticeable when they faced each other
in the ring. Jackson appeared to be three
or four inches taller than his opponent
and weighed thirty pounds more. In ad-
dition to this his long reach. gave him an
advantage which Godfrey could not
overcome, and with few exceptions the
fell short. Both men opened
was maintained till the close.
The only knock down occurred in the
second round, when Jackson upper-cut
his opponent and sent him to the floor.
In the first ten rounds Jackson had
gained decided advantage, though God
frey made him work very hard. In the
last three rounds the punishment which
Godfrey received was terrible. Jackson
rushed him around the ring and forced
him against the ropes, all the time
raining fearful blows upon his head and
trying in vain to beat him to the floor.
Blood was flowing very freely from God
frey's face, and in the nineteenth round
he saw there was no possibility of his re-
turning any of the punishment, and he
gave up the fight.

Representative Vance Believes 1t

WASHINGTON, August 15.-Representa-
tive Vance, of Connecticut, returned to
Washington to-day after fortnight's
absence spent in travelling about the
State. The careful canvass he has made
of the State convinces him that the pros
pect of the success of the Democratic
ticket justifies the most sanguine expec-
tations. Mr.. Vance said to World cor
respondent to-day:

then made list Of addresses, filling six

II talked with at least hundred me-

parts of the State, but not in single
case did 1 find that the cry of "Free

fact is the Republicans of Connecticut
wore that issue threadbare in the last
campaign. As one mechanic put it to
me:
"'They told us that to elect Mr.. Cleve-
land meant universal disaster to the
country and to Connecticut in particular.
What has been the result? Have our
wages been reduced? Reduced? No.
Have any of our factories been
closed? No. On the contrary, we
have had four years of uninterrupted
prosperity. That gives the Republican
prophecy the lie. Now they come and
ask US to swallow the same thing again.
It's an insult to our intelligence. Again,
they make hue and cry about the Mills
bill and its reduction of per cent, and
then the Republican Senate turns its
back on the policy of the minority Of the
House and appoints special sub-com-
mittee to do what? To bring forth a bill
to reduce the tariff. To do Just what
the Republicans in the House cried out
against Democrats for doing. In Other
words they want the workingmen o
Connecticut to blindly accept their state
ment that what is criminal in the De
mocracy is all right in the Republicans.

A Street Catastrophe.

About fifteen minutes to four yesterday
afternoon black horse and buggy, the
property of Messrs. Whitmore and Moore,
of Los Angeles street, came dash

more notice of it than if it were feather.
He turned on to Los Angeles

went at full speed. Just before he
reached Commercial street. however, he
collided with another buggy travelling in
the opposite direction. There was a
crash and the black horse fell forward on

THE OPIUM ssSHIFTERS.D
They Realize that the Hest Laid
Plans ssGang Aft Aglee.''

CHICAGO, August 24.-The three
arrests at Ogdensburg in connection with
the opium conspiracy appear to have
been due to discoveries in Gardner's
papers captured here. Among the docu-
ments were letters from Stone to Gardner
clearly establishing the fact, it is said,
that there was an agreement between
Stone, the Ogdensburg lawyer. Nathaniel
Little, Jr., Deputy Collector at Ogdens-
burg, and w. J. Cuminsky, janitor of the
Custom House, to 'shift" some opium
in the custody OF Little. This was the
stuff confscated at Ogdensburg last
winter. 1t had been smuggled into
the United States by Gardner, and he
was under bail of $15 900 for the offense.
The "shift" meant that the Government
was to be robbed. The disposal of it by
Gardner would make him and his con-
federates rich, and with its disappear
ance the evidence of the original crime
for which he was to be punished would
be gone. Gardner's letters it appears
that Deputy Collector Little was to re-
ceive $4 900 and Janitor Cuminsky 81 900
of the spoils. The scheme was to put
little blocks in place of the opium cans
in the Government vaults at Ogdens-
burg, until the trial of Gardner, when
upon the discovery of the deception he
would undoubtedly be released.
