NEW YORK, August 1.-THE opening
of the stock market was rather weak.
the Changers leading. with losses of isa%
per cent London sold st. Paul, Louisville
and Nashville, and Union Pacific. The
foreign offerings really caused the weak
opening here. the sales for this account
having amounted to about 10000 shares.
Room traders were disposed to follow up
the foreign selling. but as the offerings
failed to make the impression on values
that the sellers intended. the professionals
changed front and covered the small line
put out on the lower cables.
For a time the market waited for the
Burlington and quincy dividend. Just be-
fore midday a false report was circulated
to the effect that the directors of the
company had reduced the dividend TO 1
per cent quarterly. There was some SELL
ing on this, but the decline was not
worthy OF mention, and when it was
officially announced that the directors had
decided to pay the regular dividend. there
was u rush on the part Of shorts to cover
As q result, the Changers moved up
rapidly, Burlington and quincy rising 3is,

JONES TO HIS MEN.
THE COLONEL SPEAKS QUITE PLAIN
lY or OBSTINATE EMPLOYERS.
He WIN Use Personal Efforts to Secure
Places for Such Soldiers -
Are Discharged.

There was an enthusiastic gathering al
the Rcgimentai Armory last night. Com
pany A. Captain c. Gray Bos-
sieux. and Company b. Captain
Frank w. Cunningham. which were
detailed to 60 tc Camp Rosslyn to
assist In driving the '1ndustrials' out OF
Virginia, were assembled at o'clock,
and. after a drill. were inspected by Col
onel Henry C. Jones. com mandant Of the
regiment. At the close Of his inspection
Colonel Jones addressed the men In line
briefly with reference to the trouble
few OF them had had with their EN-
plcyers because Of the recent trip.
COLONEL JONESS PLAIN TALK.
In substance the Colonel said:
81 desire to speak to you tonight on
matter Of importance to you. ] have been
Informed that several OF you have been
threatened with being discharged by your
employers, and that one member OF the
regiment has been discharged because
OF obeying the order of the Governor OF
this State. who recently summoned you
to aid the civil authorities in maintaining
the laws OF Wig MIA.
IL regret to learn that we have In the
State OF Virginia any businessmen SO
mean. so devoid OF the proper spirit
which should actuate every good citizen
when the civil authorities become power
less to maintain the laws OF the Common
wealth. Ii Is a ma ter Of still deeper
regret to me TO learn that we Lave such
men In Richmond. While We are power
less TO prevent such action on their part,
yet | believe that proper representa-
ton Of such cases to the Executive would
bring about speedy punishment. tut We
do not desire or intend TO make such
an issue. IL was convinced that the i'm
preston held by these few persons re-
ferred TO was the general sentiment in
this community. l would at once appeal
to the commander-in-chiaf TO order the
discharge OF every officer and man In this
regiment.
WOULD BE CONDEMNED.
II have talked with many Of our best
citizens on this subject. however. and am
satisfied from their impressions that such
feeling as these few employers have In
dicated toward the volunteer soldiers
would be condemned by the large mass
of the community. IL any of you should
be so unfortunate as to be I'm the employ
of such parties and to suffer by reason
thereof when called upon to perform the
duty required of you by law. you will
Immediately report such fact TO your
commanding officers. who will report the
same to me, and l pledge you my best
endeavors to obtain other work for you
from those good citizens who are always
willing to sustain and maintain law and
order"
The companies were then dismissed and
returned to their respective rooms, where
they signed the pay-rolls for the Camp
Rosslyn service.

d. w. Brewer last night, in Old Fell
lows Hall, made comments ana drew
conclusions from the twelfth chapter OF
Ecclesiastics. He compared youth with
old age. In youth rainbows span the
horizon, air castles dance before the
imagination, hope sllures, fancy paints;
but in old age the wise man declares
I'VE take no pleasure in them" This,
said the evangelist, is q chapter that
points the mind to the physical and
spiritual nature Of man. The hygiene,
the anatomy. the faculties OF the hu-
man frame were here most wonderfully
unfolded. THE silver cord" golden
bowl" pitcher" fountain" and
''wheel at the cistern" were terms that
indicated the dissolution Of the body
from the soul, but ringing all through
is the adGonition, Remember now thy
Creator in the days Of thy youth" The
evangelist breaches the gospel as his
ideal OF life and duty. He SAYS that he
loves to go among his fellow men and
point them to nobler and better life
here and a glorious freedom hereafter.

CAN'T BELIEVE REPUBLICAN ORATORS.
Vet Union Record.

MAKE IT TEN THOUSAND.

Can any one for a moment believe that
our proud little State will go over to the
Republicans this fall? No, 10000 must
be the Democratic majority this fall.

Dovener is afraid to meet Howard 10
Joint discussion. We'd be ashamed OF
such candidate.
