New YORK. March 5.-In the stock
market today there was heavy trading in
Reading and sugar r%efners, but the gen.
eral list was dull and stagnant. The bears
are accused of manipulating rates for the
exchange, and are said to have bought
sterling heavily in order to prevent a de-
cline to the point which would permit the
shipment of gold to this country at a
profit. Reading was the feature of the
day and was weak on a food of short sales
primarily upon the dullness OF the anthra-
cite coal trade. 1t rapidly sold down from
39f to 363, closing at the lowest price.

Thomas Banks, one of the most pc
culiar characters that ever lived in Ala
bama, died recently in Montgomery. He
was a native of North Carolina, and
went to Montgomery in 1856, then in the
middle of life, but poor and friendless.
He was industrious and misery, and
soon accumulated an estate valued at
5000, 900. Fifteen years ago he had a
handsome mausoleum erected in the city
cemetery, and directed that he and his
brother should be laid to rest there to-
gether. His only brother and only rela.
tive died last year, and was inferred in
the mausoleum. Thomas Banks had the
mausoleum furnished with a washstand,
bowl and pitcher, soap and towels and a
comb and brush. He used to visit the
place daily and make his toilet in the
m~ausoleum. He could not bear the idea
of being buried under the ground, and
said if he should come to life again he
would like himself in comfortable quar-,

receive so much of the silver products of

silver product of the United States,
including the silver product of the | nited

The republican conferees held a meet.
ing tonight, lasting three hours and
while three disputed questions of most
importance: viz: sugar, binders twine
and steel duties were not settled, the SEN
ate and house wings Tapped near enough
to warrant the conferees in saying that
they had no doubt but that both wings
would be found working in union some
time tomorrow. Just on what basis this
result would be about, he
refused to state, saying that
conclusions had not yet been arrived
at. A meeting Of the full conference
committee will be called for some time
tomorrow to pass formally upon work
done in private by the majority members.
This meeting, it is expected, will not oc-
cur at noon, but will be called as soon as
the republicans in their meeting tomor-
row accomplish the agreement they con-
fidently assert will be reached at tomor-
rows informal session.
