GRAVE ALLEGATIONS DENIED.

Suit In Equity Against Messrs. w. E.
Schmertz nnd G.. Mayer, Which, the
Former Says, Are Based Entirely Upon
Error.
A bill in equity has been filed by A. I.
Scott against G. Mayer and William E.
Schmer IT, in which the former charges that
co-partnership had been agreed upon by
which Mr.. Schmertz was to receive one
fourth the profits of a concern known as the
Big Shoe Store, in consideration of his fur
nishing all the capital necessary to run the
business.
He also alleges through his attorneys, J. A.
Langfitt and Clarence Burleigh, that in Octo-
Der, 'S7, W. E. Schmertz sold out the store, and
that no settlement was ever made, and that Mr..
Schmertz had taken possession of all receipts
and books of the firm and had collected for his
own use a large amount of the accounts and re-
fused to show the said books.
When the allegations were shown to Mr.. W.
E. Schmertz he laughed and said the suit was
all nonsense. The shoe was on the other foot,
and A. i. Scott owed him about 81, 600 and he
had threatened to sue Scott for the amount.
He also said that the books had been open for
inspection, but that Mr.. Scott had not called or
asked to see them.

STILL DROPPING OFF.
Wall Street Continues to Work In the
Direction of Hard Pan-PuIlman
Alone Scores an Advance
Bonds Gaining

Strength.
NEW YORK, January lS-The stock market
showed a still further falling off in the amount
of business done to-day, and while the trading
was even more than usual of late confined to
the trading element it reflected a growing in.
disposition to operate even among that class of
operators. The interest of the day centered in
the Southwestern stocks. There was heavy
selling of Atchison early i'll the dav, presum.
ably for Boston account, which, however. was
accompanied by the usual disquieting rumors
which took the shape that the company had
been compelled to borrow money to pay
its interest, that the next statement
would show large floating debt, and that
the road had failed to earn its fixed charges by
about S2,OOOOOO with the .alk of a receiver
The selling movement extended to San Fran
cisco, which was sold down from CSC to g.
although the sales were believed to be for the
account of the bear leaders. Missouri Pacific
and Texas Pacific also suffered. though to a
smaller extent. There was also considerable
pressure upon the Coalers. Reading Welded a
point and Lackawanna something more
although each recovered portion of the de-
cline. The movement in Delaware and Hud-
son was more marked while its volume of
business was somewhat smaller than usual of
late, and it closed with material loss for the
day.
First figures were generally slightly better
than last evenings prices, and while the mar
ket was quite dull there were further slight
gains recorded in the first few minutes The
weakness in Atchison and the other South
westerns, however, soon changed the temper
of the trading, and the early improvement was
quickly wiped out. San Francisco next came
into prominence, followed by Missouri Pacific
and later in the day by Texas Pacific and Cot
ton Oil. The general list was dull and Welded
slowly, and in few instances sone strength was
shown, but the dealings were utterly devoid of
feature and fluctuations unimportant. The
market nnally closed dull and heavy at or near
the lowest prices of the day. Pullman stands
alone this evening in showing an advance.
which was 10 per cent. while the rest of the
list is almost invariably lower.
The trading in railroad bonds aggregated
81, l,4OSOOO but this amount was very evenly dis
tributed, although the number of issues traded
in was somewhat smaller than usual of late
The tone OF the market was still firm to strong.
and almost everything traded in shows an ad
vance this evening.

HOW To KEEP FLOWERS,
Florist Gives Some Hints for Preserving
Them Fresh and Bright.

Florist Gives Some Hints for Preserving
Them Fresh and Bright.
There were several beautiful bouquets of
roses, hvacinths and other hothouse flowers
resting on the counter in florists estab
lishment in this city yesterday afternoon,
when reporter stepped into the store. He
asked how long will the flowers last in the
bouquets. The general manager replied:
That all depends on how they are taken care
of. OF course if a lady carries them in her
hand all night in a hot ballroom, there is no
chance for them to last any time at ALL But
under ordinary circumstances, that is, put in a
vase, they ought to last a week, at least Most
people make the mistake to moisten the stems
of the flowers only. Now that is wrong The
petals are more liable to wither and drop off
than any other part of a flower, and they Should
be moistened as well. In fact, this is the wav
flowers Should be treated: Put them in a basin
ami let the water run on them until thev are
almost covered with it. Then let them stand
like that for night. The next morning they
may be arranged, and then they should be
sprinkled with moisture as often as TIE water
in the vases is renewed and they will last.

bulls held the reins, pushing the price up Nc,
but this exhausted their tactics as well as their
patience. 1t was a fight against fate, or the
Standard or some other mysterious influence,
and they gave up in disgust. The downward

staggered the boys, who had been expecting
different result. This was the last straw that

A BOOM FOR LIMA OIL.
A Former Pittsburg Operator Gives His
Opinion Of the Stuff.

Mr. ]. S. Stricken, of Lima, O.. formerly an
operator on the Pittsburg Petroleum Exchange
was circulating among old friends on the floor
of that institution yesterday afternoon. He is
dead gone on Lima oil and gives some forcible
reasons for the faith that is in him. During a
brief talk with The DISPATCH representative
he said Lima oil was rapidly coming to the
front in spite of all efforts to keep it in the
background. The quality was good-75 per
cent of white ITO test. One refinery there was
turning out 10 barrels of this oil every day in
the week. In fact the demand was greater
than the capacity of the refineries to supply
These facts we're well known there, he said,
where no one undertook to dispute them.
1t was ascertained from another source that
the abundance eheapness and good quality of
Lima oil are among the bearish influences
operating on the general market to keep prices
down and unsettled Lima oil, he added, could
not be much longer ignored.

ness in Ohio. The company has been organ
lied under the laws of this State with capt.
tai of 100000. The gentlemen forming this
corporation. together with those of the
Paragon Refining Company, of Toledo, and the
Amazon Oil Company, also of Toledo, are all
Eastern oil men of superior standing, and pos
sess sound business judgment. These men
having invested large sums of meney in the
Ohio field, the doubling masses have begun to
feel that perhaps, after all, the Ohio product
has value to the world
The undercurrent of oil affairs in Northwest
ern Ohio is becoming somewhat mixed and
sadly disturbed, and something may come out
of the present agitation that will be of general
benefit to the trade at large.
