THE "BULL" CAMPAIGN.
THE RESULT OF THREE-WEEKS'
TR!AL-ITS BASE.
The Spirit of Trade Throughout the
Country Steadily Growing in Conf
dence-Harvest Anticipations.

NEW YORK, May 9-The ''bull'' cam
paign has now had three weeks OF Trial.
The result proves that it has been based
upon natural conditions and has rested
upon sound foundation. During the last
four weeks We have exported about Sly,-
O0O.0O0 of gold, which has to that extent
depleted the reserves of the banks; and
this has been not only severe but also q
more or less unexpected test of the strength
OF the stock market. Under an ordinary
state of things, such q drain would have
suficed to cause important selling of long
stocks and big decline in prices; but, i'll
the present condition Of things, whilst i
has encouraged active selling by the bear
operators, ii has not prevented material
rise in prices and has simply acted as pre-
yentive OF still further advance. II IS
another evidence of the intrinsic strength
of the market that not only has the upward
movement had little or no support from the
London and continental markets, but it has
actually had 10 contend with the return O.
securities from those sources.
These facts show incOntestably that the
success of the bull" campaign, thus far, IS
due to bona fde recovery Of confidence
and to solid causes. AT the same time,
however, the larger operators are wise in
their disposition TO postpone any extreme
urging of the rise until the uncertainties at
tending the money market are mitigated.

SILVER POOL.
Further Testimony Taken Before the
Investigating Committee.

Further Testimony Taken Before the
Investigating Committee.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-Representatiy
Dorsey of Nebraska testified before the
Silver Pool Investigation Committee to-
day.
He had no knowledge of congressman
or other Government officers being inter
ested in the silver pool or in silver pool
speculation. The witness never did have
any interest, directly or indirectly, in sill
yer bullion or silver speculation.
III. V. Parsons of Brooklyn was called
to the stand, but before he testified Stew
ems, correspondent of the Globe Demo-
c,'dt, said he wished to withdraw one or
two names which he had at the request of
the committee given from recollection.
They were those of Newlands and Par
sons. Since testifying he had received
from Owenby letter, dated at Chicago,
saying he had erred as to Parsons.
Stevens said he received letter from
Owenby two or three days ago; that he
had shown it to Dockery, who suggested
that he hold it for while.
Parsons, the New York agent for Wells,
Fargo d Co., said he knew nothing about
any silver speculation by Government
officers. He said he knew Owenby
slightly. Owenby frequently came to the
office of Wells, Fargo d Co.. and the wit
ness made his acquaintance in that way.
He said that Owenby stated that he had
an interest in silver given in considera-
ton of the information furnished.

WORLDS FAIR.
Effect Of the Action of the Southern
Legislatures.

Effect Of the Action of the Southern
Legislatures.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-Congressmen
are commenting on the action of sever al
Southern Legislatures in declining to take
steps to participate in the Worlds Fair,
pending the consideration Of the elections
bill.
Senator Cullom of Illinois said he did
not believe the proceedings would have
any effect upon Senators favorably dis
posed toward the bill.
Representative Butterworth of Ohio
said the question was grave one, and if
ten or q dozen States should decline to
participate its success might be leopard
lied. He hoped the fair would be out of
politics.
Representative Gambler of Massachu-
sets. Chairman of the Worlds Fair Com
mittee, said he did not think the senti-
ment of the people was fairly represented
in the proposed action.
Representative Taylor of Illinois be-
lieves the fair will be a success, even if
all the Southern States decline to partici-
pate. He does not think the action of the
Southern Legislatures Will influence any
votes on the elections bill.
Senator Berry of Arkansas said he did
not attempt to influence the Arkansas
Legislature IN the matter, but fully in
dorsed its proceedings. Arkansas pro-
posed to make liberal appropriation for
the exhibit, but if the elections bill be-
came a law the business OF the State
would be impaired and the flow OF immi-
grafton and capital stopped.
WILL REFUSE A REFLECTION.
CHICAGO, Jan. 24.-Lyman j. Gage,
President of the local Worlds Fair Di-
rectory, announced to-day that on April
LIST, next, when the annual meeting is
held, he viii decline reelection, because
of the pressure of private business.
SOMETHING INTERESTING FORTHCOMING.
CHICAGO, Jan. al. w. Owenby, who
is supposed to know something about the
silver pool, was found here to-day by the
deputy Sergeant alarms, and summoned
to appear before the Investigating Com
mittee at Washington next Thursday.
Talking of the matter, he said: IF am
permitted to tell what know, something
interesting will be forthcoming"

died in Paris, Thursday, of pneumonia.
She was born in Client, August 10, 1913,
and was an actress from the time she was
years old. She was a woman OF remark
able beauty and of high order of talent.
She visited this country in 1869 and played
very successful New York engagement.
Besides her celebrity as q leading actress,
Montaland enjoyed some distinction as a
painter.
Sadie Martinot is having play written
for her with Nine. de Pompadour as
central figure. 1t will be faithful por-
travail of the times of Louis XVI, and
will introduce several characters promi-
nent in the history of France at that
period. The subject is a fruitful one, and
Miss Martinez deserves credit for her dis
eliminating taste. Mime. de Pompa-
dour was sort of female Beau Brummel,
and, no doubt, an interesting play could
be woven around the many events of her
brilliant, but not impeccable, career.

Lreech, Director of the Mint, submitted
a statement of the visible domestic sup
ply of silver on December 1st and on
January LIST last. On the former date the
visible supply Leech places at II ,692, 356
ounces, the largest holdings being in the
Mercantile Safe Deposit Company, New
York banks and Western refineries. He
also submitted a list of concerns that since
the late Silver Act passed offered 10000
ounces or more of silver to the Govern
ment.
Director Leech gave among the regular
sellers the Consolidated Kansas City
Smelling and Refining Company of New
York; Clark, Dodge q Co., Handy Il Har-
man, Zimmerman (for Shay, The Fourth
National Bank, the Boston and Colorado
Smelling Company of Denver; J. d w.

Co., all of San Francisco; Wells, Fargo d
Co. of New York; l. & S. Wormser;
Heidelbach, Ickelheimer IL Co. and L. A.
Cole of New York.
Leech gave an outline to the committee
of the manner in which silver speculation
was carried on, ana said the deposit OF
bullion and the issue of certificates began
largely as matter of convenience to the
Western refiners who did not want to
throw their product on the market at OPP
perfume times.
Like most of the previous witnesses,
Leech had no knowledge of speculation
by persons connected with the Govern
ment.
Chairman Dingley, for the benefit of
the newspapers, from which the people
must obtain their information of the in
vestigation, he said, remarked that his
attention had been called to publication
charging that in some way the commit
tee managed to prevent the evidence
which Senator Vest gave respecting Sem
ator Cameron coming before the country
until after Cameron's election, and that
the committee knew what Vest would
testify to. The fact was that the commit
tee sent word to Vest on Saturday to APP
pear, but he replied that he couldn't
leave the Senate. At the instance of
Oats, who stated that he had business in
New York, an adjournment had been
taken until Wednesday. Had the COM
mittee had any intimation of Vests tes-
timony it would have insisted on his APP
pearing on Saturday

Double and twisted speech.

The New England dialect is still kinky
with misuse of vowelS and rodund-
ancy of negatives, but these peculiarities
are not blemishes; on the contrary, they
add picturesqueness to the language.

but local habit.
Il don't s'pose," is common to Maine
and Vermont, and is used to preface a
question.
When speaking Of man who has been
unfortunate in business, our down East
friends say: HE has failed up"
Or, man who is stingy, they remark
that he is "a little near" or ''very near,
Some of the phrases are full of meaning.
as when they speak of one carrying a
great load, "he lugged it in" which
means more than fetched, as it gives a
good idea of an outlay of strength.
In some localities, instead of saying
s'he has rented a house, it is che has got
his rent" or Five been over and seen his
rent" idioms as simple to them as they
are obscure to the visitor.
A word in common use among the old
fashioned people strikes the unaccus-
toned ear as very peculiar. When a
mans coat doesn't fit him they say,
.'It fays badly" Looked up, the word is
by no means vagabond, but one of re-
spectacle antecedents, and found in every
modern dictionary. 1t is good old Eng
lish word, meaningto fit.
man who has .'hoss'' to sell does
not tell the buyer that he is in good con-
dition. He says in the varnacular: ssYou
kin trot that boss thirty miles and back
and you won't find any outs in him.
All these little peculiarities of speech
''obtain," as the dialecticians would say
among the educated people. The labor
ers have a language Of their own, of
whom chronicler reports this amusing
speech:
II don't s'pose there amt nobody seen
nothin' of no old felt hat nowhere?''
This exhaustive use of the negative is
duplicated in the same locality as the pre-
ceding question in this way:
II don't s'pose You don't know of no.
body that don't want to hire nobody to
dew nothin' ?''
There is such picturesqueness in this
poverty of language that we feel sure it
would lose a real value i'll contest with
lexicons and grammars and sink to the
dead level of the commonplace. And it
fits the condition Of free-born citizen
looking for honest employment.
1t is indeed seldom that the trusted
vowel, or local phrase, is a lingual de-
formity. 1t is more often the tradition of
a family handed down from father to son
as hereditary as the eyes and hair.-De-

A Station Indicator.

The device for indicating the names of
stations in such manner that passengers
on railway cars can at all times be saved
any anxiety as to their whereabouts,
which was put ON trial on various lines
some time ago, has shown itself so well
adapted for its purpose that its general
adoption in every passenger car on the
Grand Trunk system, both in the United
States and Canada, has been decided
upon. A nicely finished frame of pol
ished wood, at both ends of the car, con-
tains a number Of thin iron plates,
painted with the name OF the station in
the order in which the train passes
through them. AS each station is passed,
the conductor pushes a lever on the indi-
Gator, gong sounds, and the previous
plate drops, expressing the words, ''The
next station is-.o This is repeated
at every station, so that a passenger has
only to look at the indicator to discover
at any time the name of the town or city
which the train is approaching.
