BEARS IN FULL CONTROL.
Atohison and New England Par
tioularly Weak Stocks.
Jump in Sugar Has Only q Moder-
ate Effect.

The appointment Of receivers for the
Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe road.
which was foreshadowcd In 'The Even
ing World" nearly n week ago. led TO a
depressed feeling In stock circles this
morning. The commission houses had
selling orders from various quarters
and the bears, OF course. were active In
their efforts to bring about demoraliza-
ton.
There were several rallies. but they
only served TO stimulate selling for the
short account. The prices touched were
the lowest for a long time past.
Atchison fell 1 "a. to 10; Burlington

The bears devoted a good deal OF at
tention TO New England, which they
| claimed would soon follow In the foot
steps of the Atchison. Russell Sage
says:

.ARMEN|ANs FIGHT THE TURKS.
Seevas Policemen and Their Chief
Shot Down.
Jail Delivery and Attempt to Blow
Up the Prison.

VIENNA, Dec. 26.-Details OF the re-
cent conflict between Armenians and
Mussulmans at the village of Seevas,
Asiatic Turkey. have been received from
Constantinople.
The trouble arose from the arrest of a
number of Armenians who were sus-
pected having murdered Turkish spy,
but who protested their innocence.
number of persons whose names
had been prominently mentioned in con-
nection with the affair were ordered to
appear before the Turkish authorities
They sought refuge In a church, closely
pursued by the police who tried to force
their way into the building.
Both parties then began firing, the
noise of theshooting attracted numbers
Of Armenians and Mussulmeans to the
scene and the disturbance became gen.
eral. There was more shooting and a
number of people were killed inside and
outside the building, including several
policemen and the chief of police.
Later in the day the Armenians, in
large numbers, overpowered all opposi-
ton and took possession Of the Central
prison and released their fellow country
men. A later attempt to blow up the
prison was frustrated.

this morning awaited the coming of his
