to the English people who seek the king

and thus give the illustrious English race
token of sincere affection. Continuing,
the Pope says: 1--WE are further moved
thereto by rot infrequent conversations
with our countrymen. who have testified to
the kindly feeling of the English people
towards us personally and their anxiety
for peace and eternal salvation through
unity of faith. God is our witness to show
how keen our wish is that some effort OF
ours might tend to assist and further the
great work of obtaining the reunion OF
Christendom."
After citing the evidences of the love and
care Of the Roman pontffs for England
from the time of Gregory the Great, his
Holiness aliudes to the exertions made by
England to solve the social question for
religious education, charitable objects. the
strict observance OF Sunday and the general
spirit of respect for the Scriptures, and
the various manifestations of the power
and resources of the British nation, the
Pope declares that mems labors. whether

and without the divine blessing. He

Burned--Loss Over $5OO,OOO.

ARDMORE. I. T., April 19.-Yesterday

The aggregate loss entailed is variously es-
timated at between 1900 and $500, 900, with
the latter figure coming near the correct
amount The insurance will foot up to but
one-third of the loss.
The fire started at o'clock this morning
in the large livery barn of Harper & Ce-
ell, in Caddo street. It spread with mar
velous rapidity, and within less than an
hours time nearly every business house on
that street was in ruins. The city has no
fire company or water works, but the whole
male population turned out and desperately
fought the flames 1t was soon apparent
that the business portion was doomed, and
efforts were directed toward saving the

kept the flames within the downtown linn
ings and three other business houses on
Main street, east of Caddo, and the post
office is the only business portion of the
city left standing. The scene of the disaster
on Main street to-day is a sad one, and the
loss will prove decided setback to the
city. Twenty-six. livery horses were burned.

cause of the fire is not known, there being
various rumors to It's origin, but it is
undoubtedly incendiary. The large federal
court building and jail were destroyed.
Eighty prisoners confined in the latter were
removed to the Baptist Church, beyond the
danger line. and placed under a heavy

The Standard Reduces Prices and the
Market Declines.

PITTSBURG, April boil took an
other slump this morning and after opening
at $2.4o, it went down to s2.20 bid, inside of
twenty minutes. The decline was gradual
and was caused by the announcement that
the Standard had reduced its price for credit
balances 20 cents to $2.40. 1t recovered five
points and at 1890 stood S2.25 bid for the
May option. Cash oil sold for s2.25. After
this the price did not fiuctuate much and
at noon stood at 1925 All afternoon the
price hung about s2.25, the highest point
few minutes before closing it began to
slumn off and closed at $2.20, the lowest
point reached during the day. The highest
was S2.42. There was practically no trad
ing on this exchange to-day, the sales
scarcely aggregating 10000 barrels. In OIL
City the prices ranged the same as here,
but there was more activity in the market.

Brokers are at loss now as to what to
expect, though the fact that the Standard
has made reduction in it's price for credit
balances would argue for a decline. But
up to Wednesday the exchange price was
higher than the Standards and with credit
balances selling at $40 there seems to
be no reason why the May option should
not sell beyond that point. However, the
best opinion is only a rough guess
The Standard picked the exchange to-day

to trade on. Everybody who could sold out

Views of the ssThunderer.o
LONDON, April 19.-In its financial article
this morning the Times, in discussing the
revival of trade in America and it's effect
on the railroads, says the rise in petroleum
is largely due to manipulation, but it would
be mistake to treat it as unimportant as
an evidence of the revival of trade, for
petroleum, like other articles of which the
potential supply in a. large measure has
been unduIy suppressed for some time past.
The Standard Oil combination has taken ad-
vantage of the situation, which arose from
ordinary economic causes, and it is unlikely
that the price will return to its former low
level. A substantial rise in the price of
wheat and cotton would benefit the United
States greatly and would probably turn ex-
changes in favor of America and thus pre-
