weekly review Of trade, issued to-day, sayst
but for speculation, this would have been
comparatively dull week. but sales Of
$4,000, 600 bushels of wheat in this market
and $4,000 bales of cotton, end 2,242, ,O0G
shares Of stock have supplied certain activ.
ity, though not of the most wholesome
kind. In the interior business has been
somewhat improved with more favorable
weather, but many causes combine to pre-
vent great activity.
REAL ESTATE QUIET.
Prominent among them is reaction from
the excessive real estate speculation and
building which have prevailed for years in
some quarters; thus at Philadelphia the de.
preston is explained by the fact that GO, ,00o
new houses have been added in eight years.
Cotton is quiet and lower at New Orleans,
and sugar active aud lower; general trade
being fair. At Savannah trade slackened
slightly, and is rather dull at Jacksonville,
bnt extensive investments in phosphate,
with heavy shipments, cause activity IN
parts of the state where there are deposits.
MONEY EASY.
"The monsy markets are generally un-
disturbed and comparatively easy, with
fair TO brisk demand at many points, and a
little stringency at one or two.
.'Foreign trade shows an increase Of 1915
per cent over last year in the exports from
New York for April thus far, while in the
imports here, there is decrease of about
per cent, but there are renewed signs Of
foreign selling OF securities on the recent
RISE and it is not TO be expected that large
gold exports in the summer can be pre-
vented unless breadstuffs so decline as te

JACK THE RIPPER HERE.
WOMAN DIsEMBOWsLEDIN BED
IN NEW YORK.

An-Night Rounder With Handsome
FACE and Bad Name.
NEW YORK, April 24-About II o'clock
last night man and woman entered the
East River hotel, a third-rate house at
Catherine slip and Water street.
The mans entry on the registry book
reads: "Knicklo and wife" The
man was a stranger, while the woman
was dissolute character who frequented
the neighborhood. They were assigned to
room on the top foor. This morning a
servant endeavored to awaken the couple,
butt did not succeed. Tho door of the room
was forced and on the bed was found the
dead body of the woman disembo weled.
The man had disappeared. Jack the Rip-
per- was at once suggested.
LOOKED LIKE SAILOR.
The murder hos created tremendous
sensation. Everything about it suggests
that Jack the Ripper Of London has reached
New York, or that somebody is copying
his methods. There was no particular at
tempt to avoid observation by the murderer
when he took the room, and he is described
as apparently seafaring man of foreign
nationality.
THE DEAD WOMAN.
The woman was known under the nick
name of Shakespeare, and was handsome
woman, Notwithstanding her dissipation.
She was an all-night rounder of many
years standing in the district of the city
which comes nearest TO the Whitechapel of
London. Appearances go to show that she
was first strangled vii sheet, which was
twisted around her neck, probably to pre-
vent outcry.
MUTILATED AS IN LONDON.
The mutilation of the body is of the same
character as that described in the London
cases, but it was done with a dull case
knife. The woman had been dead several
hours when the body was discovered. The
house where the tragedy occurred is known
as the House of All Drinks from its sign
of many kinds Of beverages on sale 1t bears
a hard reputation. The police are putting
forth every effort to unravel the mystery
and capture the murderer.

ter has not yet arrived at any conclusion as
to the plan to be adopted for the refunding
of the AZ per cent. bonds, amounting to
$50, 1000, 900, which fall due Sept l. In the

eating between $25 ,000, 900 and $2S, ,O00, 900.

the treasury he placed at about $40, ,O0o 900.
Included in this aggregate the secretary

ury, large amount of deposits held by
national banks, surplus of approximately
Sl1 ,00O, 600 and also about $4,000, 900
in bullion and $4,000,000 in silver
dollars in the treasury upon which certih-
Gates had been issued. Nothing has yet
been decided upon with respect to the
method to be adopted to get into circula-
tion the subsidiary coin now in the treas

Count Won Helmutte Moltke, field mar
shall of the German Empire, was born Oct.
26, 1S00 in Meokenburg, where his family
had had their seat for centuries. He was
chief of the general staff, and planned the
Prussian campaign Of 1866 against Austria,
and the German campaign of 1S70-'7l
against France. Soon after bis birth, his
father, military officer, left Mecklenburg,
and acquired an estate in Holstein. He and
his brother were sent to the military
academy in Copenhagen, where iron disct-
pline and military frugality laid the founda-
tion of his later character. In 1922 he en-
tered the Prussiau army as cornet. His
parents by this time having lost all their
fortune, he was without any pecun-
iary means and had to undergo
many hardships to maintain himself
in his position-the pay of Prussian officers
being very small; yet he managed to save
enough to take lessons in modern languages,
which afterward proved Of great advantage
His eminent abilities soon procured him a
place on the general staff. In 1853 he
was in Turkey and Asia Minor, whittier he
was sent by the Prussian government to re-
port on the war in that country and Me-
hemet Ali. Several anonymous publica-
tions of his, descriptive of the country and
the war, are noticeable. After his return
he was rapidly advanced to the rank of
general, continuing, however, on the gen.
eral staff. His wonderful strategical
powers were of immense service
in the wars with Denmark 1854
Austria 1856 and France QS70-1), bring
ing them all to triumphant issues. At the
end of the Austrian war he was rewarded
with the order of the Black Eagle. In 1870
he was created a count, and in 1871 he was
raised to the rank Of field marshal. He pub
lished a work on the Franco-German war,
and Letters from Russia 1881, but writ
ten many years before, in his early man
hood. He was man of great modesty and
simplicity. He was reserved, and little

Much of the Damage Done to Art
Works lrreparable.
ROME, April 24.-The explosion of 265
tons of gunpowder Ia the powder magazine
at Pozzo Pantallo, which caused serious
damage and loss of life, created great alarm
In the vatican. All the windows OF the
popes library were broken, and q number
Of precious pieces were destroyed. In ad-
dition many valuable panes of colored
glass in the principal window Of Sc. Peters
Bascilla was smashed to pieces. The hand
some stained glass window over the chair of
st. Peter was also broken.
AT st. Paul's church all the stained glass
windows were damaged; in fact, the dam
age done at this church was so great that
the building has been closed TO the public
while the debris Ii being cleared away and
the work OF temporary repairs inaugurated.
MUCH OF THE DAMAGE IRREPARABLE.
Much of the destruction wrought by the
explosion is irreparable, as the valuable
works Of art which have been destroy ed
cannot be replaced. Many Of the stained
glass windows which have been shattered are
works of celebrated artists, who fourished
hundreds of years ago, and though in some
cases the windows can be replaced, IN many
other cases their historical and artistic
value is destroyed for ever. Many OF the
most valuable relics in the monastery of st.
Paul also succumbed to the force of the ex-
plosion.
As already stated, some time must elapse
before the full amount of the damage can
be known, as it will require personal visit
to and inspection of tens OF thousands of
artistic relics before the full story of the
disaster can be recorded.
CAUSE OF THE EXPLOSION.
An investigation by the military authori-
ties into the origin of the explosion shows
that it was caused by the accidental explo-
sion of some shrapnel she'll capsules Few
of the people who were taken to hos
pitals have since died. King Kumbert to-day
called at the hospitals and visited the
wounded people, The kings sympathetic
action in conveying some Of the wounded

day, and in visiting the wounded to-day. is
highly appreciated By the populace Of this
city. Among those hurt by the accident
was NJ. Billot, the French ambassador, who
was slightly injured by falling glass.
