NEw YORK. Dec 1.-The course of prices at the stock exchange today was very irregu- lar, but an undertone of strength was noted. At the opening there was moderately heavy sales of the gTangers. St. Paul declined 1se per cent, Chicago, Burlington and Quincy ss, Rock Island g and Northwest 1B. The decline led to purchases to cover short sales and the early loss was more than recovered, except ID the cases of St. Paul and Northwest. After the grangers the industria were most prom inent in the dealings. American Sugar de- clned to s2a4 and later advanced gradually to 65ss. Chicago Gas gave every evidence Of covering by an important short interest. and the stock rallied from 69s4 to 72. The general list after the opening weakness improved and closed strong. Sterling exchage was not as strong as on yesterday and money was deci- dedly easier. Speculation closed strong, with prices anywhere from I to 2ls per cent higher than yesterday. St. Paul declined ls per cent Total sales were IS 2 ,00U shares. of which 56,- 500 were American Sugar, 36 ,500 St. Paul and 27 300 Chicago Gas. The bond market was dull and higher.

A Friend to Hawaii.

From the Honolulu Advertiser.
The Evening Star of Washington, D. c.,
Is one of the most faithful. Intelligent and
powerful friends in the United States of the
Hawaiian republic, and OF Annexation"
1t Is singularly fortunate that II is. because
1t is published at the capital Of the United
States, and every day reaches not only
every member Of Congress. but the mem.
bers of the executive and the different de-
partments. Although these public men
read many papers. they take The Evening
Star or the Post, because 1t gives them the
news of the day. when they reach their
homes. Mr.. Crosby s. Moves. the editor Of
The Star, has twice visited these islands.
From his own inspection Of the place, its
people, it's industries and his own close
study of our political institutions, since tho
revolution, he formed an independent Judg-
ment Of the situation, and the needs of the
country. He has accepted, without any
qualification, our view of what the politf-
cal future should be. He has also secured
correspondence from this country, and the
letters appearing In his paper give a clear,
able, exhaustive and reliable representa-
ton Of events which occur here.
The visit Of Mr.. Noyes to these islands
fully illustrates the claim, which we have
made that our duty lies in Informing the
leading papers of the United States of our
needs. An accidental visit here brings US
q strong and able friend How many more
friends would we have, II we undertook to
secure them?

hail mt Pittsburg.

The officers of the Fidelity Building and
Loan Association were called for q pre-
liminary hearing yesterday at Pittsburg be-
fore Magistrate Doherty. Women consti-
tuted the larger proportion Of the audience
and they had come to testify against the
prisoners.
Chas. II. Mckee, attorney for President
Harrison Dingman and VIM. Henry, an
nounced that his clients would waive a
hearing and be bound over for court, as II
was intimated in The Star Tuesday would
be the case. Messrs. Henry, Thompson.
Stevenson and Judge Moulton of Washing
ton were also present, representing Ding
man and Henry. They were surprised to
learn that a hearing had been waived and
wanted to know on whose authority 1t had
been done. The matter was finally settled
and the bail fixed at S11 900 at 2:30 I'm. and
Mr.. Dingman was released.
The hearing in the cases OF the other
officers was held and several witnesses ex-
amined.
Edward McGovern said he understood he
could withdraw all his deposits at the end
Of two years, and when he found different
he stopped paying in.
G. w. Wood an expert accountant, said
the books were not kept after any approx
ed system.
The other defendants were held in $500
bail each.

Potato Grated ON the Tomato.
From Meehan's Monthly.

From MeehanB
When the potato Is grated on the to-
mato, which can be done by reason OF tho
close relationship between the two plants,
the potato roots continue to produce 20
ia .oes, while the tomato grated on the
potato stalk continues to produce to-
matoes. This is considered in some Of the
agricultural papers as remarkable. that
one plant should produce two different
kinds of products; but 1t Is no more re-
markable than all other experiences in
grating. A pear may be grated on the
ounce, but the roots are still ounce roots.
although pears come from the grated
portion. There have been cases known
where the graft will influence the stock.
but to such a slight degree as not to ma
terially alter its character.
