NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Today's market

The manipulation In the industrials so sue

marked up so as to catch large blocks of
stop-orders and force a general covering

resorted to in order to bring about this re-
suit. and the variety Of rumors in regard to
legislative changes at Washington have
been used to further the scheme and produce
extreme nervousness in the bear circles

sTABBING AT PERTH AMBoY.
A Fierce Duel Between Hungarian
This Morning.


PERTH AMBOY. N. j.. Feb. ga stab
bing ARRAY, in which two Hungarians nam
ed Joseph Bielowzky and Mike Bielowzky
were seriously cut, occurred at a Hungar-
ian boarding house In Fayette street, this
city. at IL o'clock this morning.
Mike received a blow in the right cheek.
which cut through into the mouth and ex-
tended to the lips. leaving the flesh hang
ing in threads.
Joseph was stabbed in the left breast.
Just above the heart, and 1t Is doubtful
whether he will recover consciousness.
Mike Hrizak, who did the stabbing, es-
capped from the house and ran toward the
Lehigh Valley depot, but was overtaken
and captured by officers before he could
reach a departing train.
On account of their meager knowledge
Of the English language but few details
can be obtained. but 1t has been learned
that the parties began quarreling at mixed
ale party on the evening before which was
stopped by other boarders.
This morning Hrizak lay in wait for the
victims and when they appeared ne stabbed
them without warning.
Six witnesses have been arrested by Chief
Of Police Burke.

ADMIRAL BENHAM'S FUTURE
It Nay Be Affected by Representative
Moneys Resolution.
PRIVILEGES and Dignity Which the
Thanks OF Congress Carry to
an O0cer.

Admiral Benham's future may be much az
fected by the recent incident In Rio harbor.
and the resolution introduced by Represen-
tative Money complimenting the admiral.
The thanks Of Congress is an honor very
highly priced in military and naval circles,
and 1t carries with 1t not only dignity and
honor, but also several important official
advantages. One of them Is that the time
of an officers retirement Is put OF. In the
case Of Admiral Benham, he will be retired
in April next, but should Congress give him
a resolution Of thanks his period Of active
service would be extended ten years fur
ther. This would be the most signal dig
nifty at the present time, as there are few
in the naval service who enjoy the honor.
1t would also carry the pay of an officer on
the active list. which is considerably above
the pay Of the retired rank.
Unusual Privileges.
In another respect the vote of thanks
would give Admiral Benham unusual privi-
leges Rule "a Of the House rules provides
that among the few to be accorded the
privilege of admission to the floor are
''such persons as have, by name. received
the thanks Of Congress" Owing to the
jealous care with which the floors Of Con-
gress are guarded. this privilege Is looked
upon as a very marked honor.
There is no extra emolument made to
officers receiving the thanks Of Congress,
further than the added pay which naturally
accrues to an officer on the active list. The
law is careful to provide that in case a
laval officer is kept on the active list as a
result Of a resolution Of thanks by Con-
sress, 1t shall not prevent the regular pro-
motion of other officers.
Mr.. Moneys Object.
Mr.. Money has been alive to the fact of
these honors attached to vote Of thanks
and he has sought to so frame his compli-
mentary resolution as not to carry these
legal privileges Mr.. Money Is a strong ad-
mirer Of Admiral Benham's promptness and
but he thinks the Rio incident
hardly notable enough to extend the ad-
miraPs service ten years and to give MIN
the privileges Of the floors of Congress. The
resolution Is quite broad, however, and the
opinion prevails that 1t is the vote Of thanks
contemplated in the law as the basis for
special privileges and dignities.

MR.. RIKER's OFFERS.

Pigeon Hole.

Mr.. c. L. Riker. the Chicago capitalist
who sprang into prominence by Offering to
take the entire sJo.ooo.0oo i've per cent loan,

patient desire to confer with Secretary Car.
Isle. He submitted fifty bids for the bonds,
each for H.o000oo. the rate being different
In each instance His offers were printed
and showed other evidence OF careful
preparation.
They were all defective, however, IN one
important particular. He said nothing about
paying for the bonds. not even complying
with the t-easurers circular to the extent
Of saying where he proposed to deposit his
funds for the purpose.
Thinking that this might possibly have
been an oversight the Secretary Instituted
quiet investigation as TO his financial
standing and hndfng II NIL threw his pro-
Posais into a pigeon hole and gave them no
further attention

Three Arrangements.

Three ArrafgnmentS.
Mr.. Boutelle said the subject divided it
self naturally into three parts: the assault
upon the protector of faithful officer. Mr..
Stevens; second. Mr.. Cleveland's incon-
ceivable policy Of treachery and duplicity
in Hawaii. and thirdly. his usurpation of
the power of the American Congress. In
discussing Mr.. Stevens course at Hawaii,
he declared that no matter what criticisms
could be made of him, no one had ever
charged that his sympathies were not with
the American people-a charge, he contin-
ued. sarcastically, which could not be made
against President Cleveland and his Secre-
tary Of State. Republican applause).
To show the line of American public pol

successive Secretaries of State. 1t was

acquisition Of the islands. said he. which
Minister Stevens had 10 carry out. He
described the internal dissensions Of the
Hawaiian Inhabitants Leading UP to the
revolution Liliuokalani. he said, came in
to power under suspicious circumstances.
but almost Immediately upon her corona
ton she began to develop a strong native
hatred Of the Americans and other aliens
In Hawaii This tended to produce the
conditions which resulted in the revolu-
ton 1t was impending even when Mr.
Stevens wrote the letter OF March 8. 1901
of which there had been so much comment.
A Hap at Mr.. Rayner.
Il regret" said Mr.. Boutelle, with a sor-
row that can hardly express, that. the gen.
tleman from Maryland OIr. Rayner) has
seen fit to bring in here that long-discarded
innuendo Of a partisan press that there was
missing reply to Mr.Stevens' letter. which.
If 1t could be produced. would be discredit-
able to some one connected with the State
Department.
There never was any answer to that dis
patch, he continued, land the evidence
upon that point is indisputable. All those
who are familiar with the workings Of the
State Department. and there are many here
know the utter impossibility of abstracting
documents without that fact becoming
known to a number of persons / dismiss
this painful subject with the words Of Rich
ellen when he approached. with a profane
tread, the spot where lie the remains of a
nations dead. around whose sacred soil is
drawn the solemn circle of a peoples love:
Let him but set his foot within that circle
and on his head will descend the curses of
loving people. Republican applause.)

OPPOSITION HOPELESS.
The McCreary Resolution. 1t is Said.
VIII BE Adopted.

The democrats who have been opposing
the NcCreary resolution are very despon-
dent Of their prospects to secure the adop-
ton of a substitute. A large number of
them have been doing all in their power to
check what they regard as the reckless
course of the party in support of the ad-
-ninistration. and large number Of SUBJ
stitute resolutions have been prepared and
submitted to the private views of members
in hopes of securing the adoption of some
less Objectionable than the one reported by
Mr.. McCreary.
fous sacriflce of the party to the savage
queen, they say, appears to be too exact
ing for avoidance. and it is believed that
Mr.. McCreary's resolution will be adopted
tomorrow. In the debate the administra-
ton forces have been overwhelmed, but
this is not expected TO count for anything
on the vote.
