FATAL PREVALENCE OF THE GRIP.

tory Report OF the State Geologist

Correspondence OF the Richmond Dspatch.l
RALEIGH, N. c.. January 1.-The reports
to the State Medical Board show that the
grip is much more prevalent as well as
fatal in the Piedmont section than else
where in North Carolina. IL runs into
pneumonia, and there were never as many
cases of the latter disease. The well peo-
pie in many neighborhoods are not nu-
merous enough TO nurse the sick.
The plans for the new Presbyterian Or
phanage. at Barium Springs, have been
prepared.
Expressions of sympathy for the ex-
press-messengers in their strike are quite
general in this State.
SIX MONTHS WORK.
The State geologist has made. to his
board very satisfactory financial state
ment. Work has been IN progress six
months. The annual appropriation Is
$4,000. The expenditures are judicious.
The board is pleased with Professor
Holiness work, which, as thus far done in
three counties. is certainly thorough.
The work TO be done on the Roanoke river
will be of marked value also.

NEW yOaK STOCK MARKET.

New YORK. January 1.-THE stock mar
ket was in the main comparatively quiet
to-day. with a. dropping tendency during
most of the time. and the operations re-
suited in material losses for a few stocks
and immaterial changes for the rest. The
death of the heir presumptive to the
British throne had it's influence in Lon
don this morning and there was great ex-
pectation on the part of bearish traders
that the Generalization OK the foreign
markets In consequence of this event
would be reflected here by liberal sales
for foreign account. In measure this
was realized. but the dribblings of stocks
from foreign sources were easily absorbed,
and while they gave heavy temper to the
earlier dealings they had little influence
later in the day and the stocks which have
an international market were in the main
no weaker than the remainder Of the list.
GENERAL DECLINE.
The market was rather unsettled oil day
long, and while, after the opening decline, when
extended to 1 per cent. In Missouri Pacific, las

later prices generally settled away ana ihlieu W
rally at any time. The movement, however,
was slow, and In most stocks amounted 10 small
fractions only. The lndustrials were arm, and
Sugar, after its marked loss at the opening, &C
tualIy scored fractional advance during the
day.
CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO STRONG.
The strong point In the market was the Chesa-
peake and Ohio shares and tho preferred stock
showed the most pronounced strength. while the
common was specially active. The general list
was unusually barren OF feature, and while the
low-priced shares were in many cases active
they were moved Ia narrow limits, and their
nnal changes are generally insignificant. ~.
Paul was specially active again aud fairly led
the movements OF the day, Its nnal loss being
larger than that Of any other stock.
THE CLOSE QUIET AND WEAK.
The market closed quiet but weak at about the
lowest figures OF the day. The list is almost IN
variably lower, but the majority show only slight
