From Wall Street Today.

New York, July 31.-The Bank Of England
raised its minimum rate Of discount this morn
ing to per cent and precipitated selling
movement in London. and tho declines from last
nights figures there extended to over / per
cent in st. Paul, Norfolk and Western preferred,
Atkinson and Union Pacific. and this market
responded with declines of u In st. Paul and
each Lackawana, Louisville and Nashville and
Rock Island. while the others were down
generally from Il to Is per cent Among the
specialties, however. Edison general electric
was down ~ per cent at 1071k. Except in the
last mentioned stock, which retired to los, and
In Atchison and Reading, which declined
4 and e respectively, the decline made no
further progress, but fractional recoveries fol-
lowed over the whole list New England and
sugar leading with gains Of & per cent each.
The strong spot in the market,
however, was silver certificates, which we're
advanced to liz on an unusually large business.
Considerable animation attended the early
trading, but the market gradually sank into
the usual dullness and the later dealings were
marked by no feature other than the further
decline in Edison electric and the further ad-
vance in silver certificates.

VICTORY FOR THE MEN.
The Philadelphia Cloak Makers Strike
Has Ended at Last.

PHILADELPHIA, July Slater being out for
fourteen weeks the strike Of the cloak makers
here has ended in victory for the laboring
men. The negotiations for the termination Of
the fight have been in progress for week past,
during which time the committeesof the Cloak
Makers Union, No. 1, have had three confer
ences with the members Of the Cloak Manu-
facturers' Association. The result Of their
negotiations was announced last night at the
meeting of the union. Most Of the demands Of
the members Of the union have been agreed to-.
The concessions made by the manufacturers
are that they will employ only union men and
discharge the non-union men at present in
their employ. On the other hand, the union
men have agreed 70 allow the non-union mon
who desire to do so to join the union.
The question Of wages has yet to be decided,
q committee Of eight members OF the union
being appointed last evening to confer with
the manufacturers concerning their terms. II
possible the contract will be signed ct once
The strike was a costly one to the union men.
In some cases the strikers have been reduced
to destitution.

Base Hall Club.

Mr.. Walter Hswstt and the sssigaes Of the
Washington Base Ball Club today severed their
connection with that organisation. II was
found that the games at Capitol Park did not

the club was therefore turned over 10 Manager
Sullivan TO do what he could with IL II is

but will play IL scheduled games.
Manager Sullivan told SrAn reporter today
that several Wsshingtonians offered 70 back him
before the opening OF the season and they VIII
be given an opportunity 70 become sponsors Tor
the present club. IL no one 10 willing 20 put
up the money necessary TO run the club 10 will
be continued on the cooperative plan, the
players giving their services and taking the
chances Of getting their salaries. He thought
all the men will accede to this plan, Dc
1t is pretty late I'm the season TO

it is the only chance left the men 10 recover

ICE WATER ON TAP.
The CogEswell Fountain Will be Placed

the water Is started, a. numbet
Of alterations and improvements viii
be made. II would seem that the
fountain was not very we'll planned
in the first place and Capt Lusk has made
plans for decided improvement 10 II. The
plans have been approved by the Commission
ers and the work will proceed at once. The
ice box below for cooling the water will be en-
tirsly rearranged, so that the hot air
cannot get in a. readily as il did,
thus making q great saving in the amount Of
ice used, and the coils Of pipe through which
the water run and which have become badly
clogged will be repaired or q new one substi-
tuted. The faucets are to be arranged % that
the water will not run continuously, but only
as required. This win insure
colder water and will probably
keep the water from being spattcred around on

better system OF drainage will also be SUBJ
stituted to keep the sidewalks dry and to pre-
vent the fountain from becoming nuisance

THE FORTIFrCATION BILL.
The Conferees Fail to Agree So Far
Shall the Government Make It's Guns?

The fortiAcation bill 10 having hard time
getting through the conference. meeting Of
the oonferees was held today without result,
and thay expect to try again later this evening.
The Senate 10 insisting on the encouragement Of
private enterprise in the manufacture Of guns
and the House 10 in favor Of building wing to
the Watervliet arsenal and the enlargement of
the plant for the manufacture Of guns by the
government
The House conferees hold that the only way
She government can be sure of getting good
guns and getting them when wanted is to
manufacture them. They contend that priv
ate individuals are not willing to spend their
money for large plants unless they are assured
Of large profits.
The matter will probably be compromised
by providing for the extension Of the govern
ment arsenal and giving some money for the
purchase Of guns made by private firms.

THE SPEAKERS NEW PROBLEM.
The Public Building Bills Make On Em-
barrsssing Situation.

The Speaker and his friends are having
difficult time of il trying 70 settle the perplei-
ing public building question. They are
trying TO come to some sort Of agreement
by which some Of the bills may be passed, not
exceeding the average appropriations for
buildings. which is about seven millions. 30
far the buildings provided for do not aggregate
that amount but it 10 next to impossible 70 select
few on. Of the e9o, OO0,O 900 worth on
the calendar. As they state II no one
thinks &2O,OO0.OO0 should be sppropri-
ated for buildings this year, but each
thinks his bill should be one of those passed.
In view Of this situation, 10 looks as IL no more
would be allowed to pass the House.
