break out in Chinatown. PlacarJs were posted throughout the Chinese quarter, offering reward of S3OO for the life of Gam Lee, president, and Sam iup, two of the most influential members oi the Chinese Six Com. panies.
 Gam Lee immediately notified the police and placed himself under their protection, and beside caused counter placards to be put up offering $500 for information leading 10 the discovery, arrest and conviction of his pursuers. The grievances of highbinders against Gam Lee afo numerous, but his particular offense consisted in ad- vice to all Chinamen not to register under the Geary act.
 Now that deportation is to be the consequence of their failure to comply with the law, and that hiehbinders and the criminal element to be ex- peIled from the country, they propose to hold Gam Lee accountable for their misfortunes.

He said he had heard nothing about the matter at all, and was inclined to be- lieve the report was incorrect, though, Tn view of the fac. that ne had sent Tn his resignation two months ago, he thought it possible the president had appointed him temporarily until his permanent successor coult be named

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 One of the pleasantest social gatherings held in the First Baptist church this winter was that of Wednesday evening, given under the auspices of the social committee of the Young Peoples society. After a short business meeting the members and their friends adjourned to the parlors, where the literary part of the program was held. The first number was "violin solo" by MT. William Sherman, accompanied by Miss Carrie Brown, who responded to an encore. This was followed by song, 50 Hush Thee, Ny Baby" by the church quar- tette, which consists of MT. and Mrs Charles A. Bonney, Mir. P. s. Evans, jr., and Miss Grace Mix. At this point, the chairman, Mir. Frank s. Bishop, announced an intermission of ten minutes, and the second part of the program was entered upon.
 MT. Bonney and Miss Mix again favored the audience with musical selection, fol lowed by reading by Miss Florence A. Red6eld of Clinton.
 Light refreshments were then served to all present, which included large number of the members of the congregation. The social committee, consisting of Frank s. Bishop, F. B Stetson, Miss May Evans, Miss Clarine Warner, and Miss
 Mattie Beckwith, deserve great credit for the success of the entertainment Among those noticed in the audience were Rev. J. Fl. Mason and wife, W. G. Shepard, Rev P. s. Evans, MT. and Mrs. Elmer L. Arm strong, Mr. and Mrs H. B. Welch, Mrs. D. B.

The Stock Market opens Higher Unlocked for Strength in Reading and New EDGland-rhe Close Active and Weak-K aiIroad Bonds Practi- cally Unchanged.

NEW YORK, Eeo
 The stock market hero to-day was moderately active. With the exception of one or two indus trials the whole list in the forenoon displayed e strong temper, engendered by the action of the banks in exchanging geld for legal tenders The advances were largely due to covering of shorts. Among the stocks prominent for strength the time were New England, Omaha, and Reading. Cordage advanced large fraction. Distilers in the early dealings dropped away over per cent, but full recovery followed. Lster it lost nearly per cent from its best figure, and closed at its lowest, with a loss of 3A per cent. Amer ican Tobacco closed with 6 loss of 1sx st its low est figure. Railroad shares were generally strong. Omaha advanced iN to 5sss before nooD, the highest price it has attained since the ad- vance began. The buying of Reading and New England, however, in view of the apparent de- feat of the combination in the O Colony deal and the late stories of antagonism between 1t and the Vanderbilts was mystery to the street Other gains were not of special importance and the market fell into e waiting attitude. When he silver repeal bill in the house was lost there was 6 rush to sell. Before the close fractional losses in addition were established over the en tire list. The grangers vera particularly weaker, and Omah. deo'ined per cent. from its best hg Other specially weak points were Louis vile, Union Pacific, and Sugar. The marke, tclosed active and weak at the lowest prices oi the day.
 Railroad bonds were active, but show no i'm portsnt changes.

SIXTH WARD DEMOCRATS.

Popularity Of Councilman Well.
 The special election for alderman in the Sixth ward will be held on Tuesday, Feb ruary 21. The name most prominently mentioned is that of Charles Well, son of Paul Well. MT. Veil is at present the first councilman from the ward and has served the ward in a most oommendable manner. And his friends consider that it would be only fair that he should receive the nomination for alderman. He is 6 very popular young man in the ward, not only in his party, but with republicans also. It is probably correct to say that there Is no other young democrat in the ward who has ss many friends as MT. Veil.

47th ANNUAL REPORT Connecticut Mutual Life Insurance Company.
To THE MEMBERS:

To THE MEMBERS:
 The year 1892 has been one of gratifying progress on thoroughly conservative lines and in every direction. Growth, to Q com pany of the size of yours. is not necessary for any advantage to you. It does not di- mtnish the mortality cost, nor the expense account, nor increase the interest account. It does not make your dividends larger nor your insurance in any way cheaper, stronger or safer. It is desirable, there fore, only as enabling the company to sx- tend its usefulness still more widely and to do for @ greater number what 1t Is doing for you; and 1t is also desirable only as 1t can be made without increasing the propor- tion of the expense account, which every member of the company shares in paying.
 The cardinal principle of management in 80 large company as this already Is is to 80 administer its affairs as to give its pres ent members the greatest possible results in the way of sound, equitable and cheap insurance, and to take on new business only so fast as it can be done without in- terfering with that prime duty. And in these days of fierce competition by peculiar plans and heavy rebates extreme care on our part and great and unsel6sh labor on the part of agents are necessary to secure even @ moderate growth without . serious increase of the expense account, raising the cost to every policy: holder.
 It Is, therefore. gratifying to be able to say that during 1892, as for several years past, we have made substential gains in new business and amount in force without any practical increase of expenses; and that, as result of the economy of that and of many previous years and of c careful hand ling of business, we have been able to ma terially increase your rate of dividends, thus making the cost of your insurance less even than before. We have also made notable gains in strength through the in crease of assets and of surplus.
