port strange scenes, but Van Trump
and others living near the mountain,
who haye frequently scaled its peaks

there will certainly be characteristic army
music by the National staff Band. Then
Gen. Booth will probably be taken to the
residence of Mr.. William Redin Woodward.

he will be while here. Later in the day he

CZAR'S DEATH NOT A FACTOR
Wall Street Accepted the Event with
Calm Philosophy.
FIRM TONE OF STOCK MARKETS
Heavy Buying of Coalers Feature of the
Trading, Owing to Good News of the
Reading Reorganization-G -Grangers in
Good Demand-Higher Prices at Gloss.

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-The death of Russias
Gar was not followed by any hostile demon
stration on the stock market which, when the
announcement was made on the exchange,
was quite strong in tone.
Not even the International specialties were
affected, nor was there any sign given on the
occurrence of an event our OF the common.
The expected had happened and Wall street
accepted il philosophicaIly.
The london Exchange was closed for a
holiday but the Continental bourses gave no
evidence of agitation. At the opening OF the
exchange here this morning firm tone pre-
vailed, the coal stocks being notably strong
B1ying orders in these shares were quite
heavy. il is said, for the account of inside In
terests and the advance resulting forced the
bears to cover
A factor in the recovery of the coalers was
a belief generally entertained that the Read
ing reorganization plan will be adopted,
thereby lnsuring harmony OF action among
the coal companies. Philadelphia was a
good buyer Of Reading on this assumption;
Delaware ana Lackawanna advanced per
cent, Delaware and Hudson, 1T New Jersey
NSiiAldi, 49, anu bCduluS,
During the afternoon a raid was made on
these shares, Lackawanna reacting l per
cent. without p recovery, Delaware and Hud-
son lost all but Z per cent. of the improve
ment, New Jersey Central fell Off i55, but raj
lied ~, and Reading receded IS and re-
gained Il.
The Grangers were in good demand, espe-
cially st. Paul and Burlington, and they were
well held, even through the general break
which occurred in the late afternoon. Bur
lington and Rock Island closed at the top
figures Of the day, 9s and "a higher than on
yesterday. St. Paul and Northwest closed
within II OF the best showing advanced of Z
and per cent. respectively.
The general tone of the market throughout
the day was strong on moderate volume oi
business. In the first part of the last hour a re-
action took place IN sympathy with the weak
ness OF the coal and granger group, but the
losses were almost entirely recovered before
the close, and with some minor exceptions
the last prices were higher than those of yes
terday.
The bond market shared to q great extent
