tone than for many days past, the result of the
DAY s operations being the lifting of quotations
al along the line while a few stocks show
marked gains. The bullish feeling which has
been growing for the last few DAYS was even
more pronounced this morning, and the an-
nouncement of further engagements Of gold on
the other- SIDE FOR shipment to this country,
together with the evident anxiety of foreigners
to secure stocAs here, led to the changing OF
position OF many of the late besrs; while the
traders who have been following in their tracks
so long were not long 10 getting over on the
bull side. There was some resistancs in the
early dealings to the upward movement but
this soon died away as its hopeless character
became apparent, and from the beginning of
the afternoon there was no interruption of the
advance. The chief features of the dealings
were the strenS 9Th in Vanderblts, and unusual
activity and strength in Pittsburg. ST. Louis
and Chicago. Buying of Vandsrbits WAS most
aggressive, and New York Central was lifted 10
1l5 or nearly 3 per cent, and while il did not
retain all of its gain, only a small portion was
lost. Tne business done in the gems al list was
not or an unusual character, but il was more
evenly distributed than usual of late and the
upward movement reached everything, making
the final gains very uniform. Atchison Erie
and st. Paul led in the dealings, but trading
was extended to larger number of both stocks
and bonds than for months or at least since the
Missouri Pacific dividend trouble first began to
have its influence upon the market Opening
gains were generally for small fractions but
further advances were made right from the
first sales and while the resistance Of bearish
traders compelled halt after the first demand
from foreigners was satisfied, the only effect Of
the hammering was comparative dullness with
out material concessions from the best figures
reached. Purchasing of Vanderbilts began be-
fore the forenoon was out, and soon after that
time the buying OF the entire list became most
pronounced, everything traded in reaching
figures which have not been seen for some
time Changers naturally took the lead In the
general LIST. but few specialties made marked
progress, while nothing. except Sugar betrayed
realizing in the last few minutes, and New
York Central retired fractionally but the
market as a whole closed quiet and strong at or
near the best prices IF the day. The sales Of
listed stocks were 255. 900 shares and unlisted
II, 600 shares.

THE DISTRICT DIRECT TAX.
Controller Matthews Proposes 10 Take the
Matter Into Court

Matter Into Court
letter was sent to the Commissioners OF the
District today by First Controller Matthews Of
the Treasury Department, suggesting that the
question that has arisen in regard
to the ownership OF the direct
tax fund be referred for decision 10
the Court Of Claims. THIS has so far been un-
answered by the Commissioners. but the con-
troller expects their reply in day or two. His
proposition is for the District to enter suit
against the United States for the re-
covery OF the money-about ESQ, 600
and the issue ~ill be on the question OF whether
the treasury should pay direct to the District
or to the individual taxpayers. In case
the court decides against the District the
money will be paid TO the individuals. either IN
person or to the District IN trust for them.
But should the suit go against the United
states the money will be placed to the credit OF
the District
Thus the suit-which wouid be a friendly
one-would IN either case result in a defeat of
the United States far as the retention of the
money Is concerned. The court would be
merely an arbitrator.
Controller Matthews is firm in his belief that
the money belongs to the District, aud ne
thinks that the court would SO hold. The
United States. ii mis- plan were adopted, would
occupy the attitude of an inter -plesder.
In case the government won the suit the
court would deliver judgment that would IL
Itself be Il direction to the controller to pay
the money TO the individuals. and IL would
probably accompany such judgment with the
requisite directions.

THE ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.
A Committee Protests to the Commissioner
Against Mr.. Warmers Recommendation.

A Committee Protests to the Commissioners
Against Mr. Warmers Recommendation.
A committee from the Associated Charities
appeared before the Commissioners this morn
ing to protest against the recommendation Of
Superintendent Of Charities A. G. Warner that
the association shall not have the annual al
lotment of $1,000, as set aside by the Commits
sioners from the fund of $4,000. as appropri-
ated by Congress for the benefit of the poor.
Mr.. W. G. Dodge was the first speaker He
contended that the act of 1880, providing for
Q superintendent of charities, clearly defined
the duties of such officer, and he thought it was
not his duty TO report upon or even suggest
anything appertaining to the poor fund. lie
had jurisdiction over congressional appropria-
tions to institutions, but the fund from which
the association received assistance was appro-
priated for the Commissioners to alot as they
saw proper, and certainly Mr.. Warner had
nothing whatever to do with that
He thought the bill providing for q super
lntendent OF charities a good measure as q
whole, but criticised the provision that the
man to supervise our charities must not be q
resident OF Washington.
Rev. W. +. Parsons and Secretary L. s.
Emery of the association also spoke. rhe
latter gave detailed account of the work of
the association and stated during his remarks
that since the appointment of Dr. Warner con-
tribntions had fallen off 25 per cent Ii was
not his object TO reflect upon the superintend-
ent of charities, but such was the case. Citizens
did not like to contribute funds to be given
away by man whom they did not know
question was raised concerning the appli-
cability Of DR.. Warmers Recommendation 10 all
institutions and DIR. Warner. who was present,
was appealed to. He replied tLat inasInuch as
the association had seen fit to discredit
his statements Le did not desire to
enter into any argument with them. Whatever
he had TO say would be embodied in his memo
randum to the Commissioners. He would saw
however, that his recommendation applied
equally to all institutions.
The Commissioners took the matter under
advisement.

or complaint against the 1O-cent pieces coined
at the New Orleans mint, for the reason that
the dimes now being coined at that mint are
perfect in every detail. He said that it was
only recently that they began the coinage Of
dimes at New Orleans. and it was natural that
some of the pieces first turned out were not
altogether perfect in finish. He added that
this has all been changed and the coinage is
now above criticism. The department is max
