New York. March l2.-The excitement in
Tobacco subsidized today and the transac-
tiouS in the stock We're only GO,SO0 shares
against 2SO,S0O shares yesterday. The
price ranged between 7S4 and SOL. while
on yesterdays sales were recorded all the
way from I5i4 up to S2ai. The failing off
in business was ascribcd TO the fact that
the short interest in the stock had been
covered. General Electric was second In
traded in. The stock first advanced | %
Isl, and then broke 10 36h with 4 Subsc-
quent recovery to 373s. The early advance
was brought about by reports that the
company and its chief competitor. the
Westinghouse had finally reached an
agreement as TO territory, patents. etc.
The directors were in session all day, but
up to the close of the Stock Exchange
nothing of an official nature was given
out. In the last hour on rumors OF II
serious hitch. the stock dropped to Si',.
but near the close rally to S72s ensueh.
There was little or nothing to the general
strong throughout. The declaration of Il
sem-annual dividend of per cent. on
ST. Paul common stock and the reduc
tton in the posted rates of sterling eX-
change having cXertcd a favorable in
flucnce. The new Erie stocks, which were
listed b. the governors of the exchange
yesterday. were quoted at liasal53s for

DISCOURTESY DENIED.

that he had made no effort to Anglicize
the army in this country and that his
sole reason for removing Ballington
Booth from the command was because

cablegrams sent to him from India
urging that he meet him General
Booth) in London for a discussion OF
the questions at issue. This statement
Ballington Booths friends say. is false,
and some of them say that General
Booth knew 1t to be so.
Some of those discussing the matter
were disposed to excuse the statement
on the ground that perhaps Ballington
Booths replies had missed his father
and that he did not know they had
been sent. Others. who should be In
a position to know. contend that could
not be the case. as they claim his third
cablegram was so worded as to make it
evident that he had received replies to
his two preceding messages.

right, and was merely incidental thereto
Although preventive in form, it was IN eff
feet mandatory, as it required Foster and
the other directors to recognize Smith as
one of their number, and to refuse to recog-
nize Lilienthal.
AS that portion of the judgment de-
clarlng that Smith was elected was sus-
pended by the appeal, the iEiunctive por-
ton. being merely incidental thereto, was
also suspended, and the power OF the
court to enforce any portion of its judg-
ment by inlicting punishment for its
violation was stayed.
An enforcement of this portion of the
Judgment, Justice Harrison also found,
would operate to carry the decree into
effect, and would change the relative posi-
ton of the parties from those existing at
the time the decree was entered, and
might make reversal of the judgment
entirely Intellectual. If the Superior
Court could indirectly compel the recog-
milton of Smith as director after the de-
termination that he had been so elected
had been suspended by appeal, it would
exercise an authority in the proceedings
after the judgment that it did not possess
while the matter was pending before it
and undetermined.

WAS NOT IN CONTEMPT
A. w. Foster Shut Sidney V.
Smith Out of a Directors
Meeting.
But the Trial Court Erred in It's
Finding While the Main Issue
Was on Appeal.

A. W. Foster was not guilty of con-
tempt of court when he prevented Sidney
v. Smith from entering meeting of the
board of directors of the San Francisco
and North Pacific Railway Company last
March 23 The Supreme Court ascertained
this to be toe fact yesterday, and annulled
the order of the Superior Court, which
had adjudged Foster to be in contempt.
An annual meeting for directors of the
San Francisco and North Pacific Railway
Company was held in February, 1896.
Certain votes that were offered in favor of
Sidney V. Smith as one of the directors
were rejected by the chairman of the
meeting. At the close OF the election
Antoine Borel. j. b. Stetson, Andrew
M arkham, A. W. Foster, p. n. Lilienthai,
George A. NewhslI and John l.. Howard
were declared by the chairman to have
been chosen directors for the year next
ensuing.
Thereafter Smith, with BoreI, Stetson
and Howard. filed their application in the
Superior Court of San Fran cisco under
the provisions of section 315 OF the Civil
Code, setting forth their claim that the
votes offered for Smith should have been
counted. and that he instead OF Lilienthal
should have been declared elected as one
of the directors.
The Superior Court held that Smith and
not Lilienthal had been elected director
with the others, and that he was entitled
to exercise the office, and that Lilienthal
should be excluded therefrom. Judgment
was entered March Is. 1896, in accordance
with these findings, and also enjoining
the defendants from interfering with
Smith in the exercise of his Office as d.
rector.
On the same day that this Judgment was
entered, an appeal was taken to the Su-
preme Court by the defendants. and there
after, at meeting of the directors, Smith
sought to enter the room at which the
meeting was to be held, but was excluded
therefrom by Foster, who had been chosen
the president of the board, and the meet
ing was held without permitting him to be
present.
Justice Harrison finds that the action OF
the Superior Court was proceeding upon
the Judgment from which the appeal had
been taken and was instituted for the pur-
pose OF enforcing compliance Herewith.
The injunction in the Judgment against
the interference with Smiths right to act
as a director was but auxiliary to the
Judgment determining that he had such

WHY SHE LOOKED YOUNG.
A Youthful Appearing Woman at Sixty
Years of Age.

A Youthful Appearing woman at sixty
Years of Age.
Chow young she is at sixty"
l heard lady make this remark in q
streetcar recently rs she pointed out a
ine-looking woman with bright, healthy
com plexion, good figure and brisk step
who had just entered. IaIso looked at her.
She certainly seemed to be nearer forty
than sixty. / recognized her as the wife
of q well-known New York business man,
and knowing that she is always husily
employed, was interested to discover the
cause of her wonderful health and vigor.
Happening to mention the matter to a
lady OF my acquaintance shortly after, she
volunteered the following explanation:
Mrs. T." she said, certainly has splen-
did health, and not long ago she told me
the secret of it. For years past, so she
told me. she has made it practice to take
little pure malt stimulant with every
meal. She said that it was owing to this
that she had escaped the many weak symp-
toms and miserable ailments from which
so many women suffer. She saws that
whenever she feels tired and worn out.
little pure malt gives her new life and
energy"
For the bene fit of ladies who may read
these words, may further add that 1 dis
covered, on subsequent inquiry. that the
lady ABOVE referred to uses and strongly
recommends Duffy's pure malt whiskey as
the safest and hest ofall malt preparations.
No other whiskey is like it, and nothing
can produce the same good effects.

LIGHTING THE STREETS.
All the City Thoroughfares Will Soon
Be Illuminated With Elec-
rricItY.

Every indication points to the early
illumination of the entire City by power
full electric arc lights. The efforts of the
Merchants Association in this direction
have been ably championed by A. s.
Baldwin, the chairman of the COM
mittee upon public affairs. Additional
subscriptions have been received for two
more lights On Stockton street, between
Green and Union, and they have been at
once ordered installed.
The association now contem plates the
installation of arc lights upon Grant
avenue, from o Farrell street to Bush.
The project of Illuminating Market
street has been favorably received by the
property-owners and tenants along that
thoroughfare. Mr.. Baldwin has sug-
gested that if the contributions are suf-
hcient, large mum Der of arc lights will
be installed OH Market street, from the
water front 10 Valencia street. In the
center of this thoroughfare there will be
suspended arc lights in various collars, if
possible those of the next carnival, and
along the sides of the street there will be
many white arc lights. Market street,
from the bay to Third, is dark at night, as
well as that portion from Sixth to Valen-
cha. 1t is hoped that the new illumina-
ton will brighten and tighten the entire
thoroughfare from the water front to
Valencia street. This will produce a
most inviting spectacle to the many visi-
tors who reach the City by the ferries.
The Merchants Association takes pleas
ure in now announcing the following
streets as having been provided with the
improved lighting. In some of these
streets the lights are already in operation,
while in others they will soon be installed !:
Kearny, from Geary to Pacific; Montgom-
cry avenue, from Kearny to Stockton;
Stockton, from Pacific to Union; Bush,
from Kearny to Grant avenue:i Suffer,
from Montgomery to Grant avenue; Post,
from Kearny to Grant avenue; Geary.
from Kearny to Grant avenue; Third, fl ON
Market to Townsend; Fourth, from Mar
ket to Harrison; Sixth, from Market to
Harrison; Ninth, from Market to How
ard; Taylor, from Golden Gate avenue to
Eddy;s Fillmore, from Suffer to Clay :;
Powell, from Market to Geary; Larkin,
from McAllister 10 Suffer; Sixteenth.
from Valencia to Folsom, and Valencia
from Market to Twenty eighth. There is
also favorable prospect of having Folsom
from Third to Twelfth, and large portion
