A STOCK market BULGE"
London Purchases Helped to

Spec n at;ve Interests Not Confined
to tho Coalers.

WALL STREET, MONDAY, Feb. 15.--The stock
market had n "bulge" this morning, for
which the general run OF traders were quite
unprcpared. The growing hostility to the
carrying out OF the coal combine and the
heavy realizations by the bulls on Friday and
saturday last, made 1t seem more probable
that prices would go down rather than up.
London, however, came to the rescue. Its
purchases were on an enormous scale, prob
ably in the neighborhood OF 10000 shares.
With this turn about by the foreigners the
bulls felt more secure and they started right
at the opening to administer punishment 10

When the case was resumed this morning
after two days intermission, Assistant Dis
trict-Attorney Wanhope Lynn, for the peo-
Pile, had already shown pretty conclusively
that MIR. Stevenson was the owner and pro-
prietor OF the " Slide" although his iceman,
John McGrew, held the license, and myste-
rious "James Mclaughlin" was the reputed
lessee Of the establishment. Evidence as to
the reputati OF the den and its ;requenters
had also been introduced.
Lawyer Frederick b. House, OF the firm OF
Levy, Friend a. House, has been making
strenuous efforts in his clients behalf, but 1t
is not easy to see how he Will be able to set
up a successful defense In the face Of the
damaging testimony already given.
MIR. Stevenson looked nervous and worried
when he came into court this morning. HIS
wife was not present.
Lawyer House objected to the Introduction
OF any testimony as to the general character
OF the " slide," but the Court overruled the
objection and John Turner, OF Great Jones
street, was called rs the first witness. His
testimony was very damaging to the de-
fendant.
On cross-examnation Lawyer Friend got
the witness to admit that his real name was
Jpnn MClleTnan ana tnaI NE was IN the turf
commission business. lie had given the
name "Turner" because he didn't want any
newspaper talk" 1t was evident that he
was an unwilling witness.
Augustus Bcnedix, a cigar dealer at 12
Centre street, had known Mr.. Stevenson for
twelve years, and during the last ten months
had visited the "Slide" three or four times
a month. Ills testimony was direct and
damaging.
Lillian Cheevers, bleached blonde, with a
weil-worn sealskin sacque and white gloves,
said she lived IN Twelfth street. She had
frequently visited the "Slide," the last time
on Christmas Eve. Her testimony, which
was very damaging to Mr.. Stevenson, was
given reluctantly and with evident humilia-
tion. She swore that Mr.. Stevenson ordered
her to get out OF the place on onc occasion
when she had been blinking. This was
drawn out to SHOW that stevenson was In au-
thority in the place.
