MILITIA MEMS MORALS.

Rev Asher Anderson, Chaplain of the
 Second Regiment, Talks Camp Eth
 ics Above Par--Life Under the Tents
 Far Better Than Last Year.
 Rev. Asher Anderson, chaplain of the Second regiment, c. N. G., arrived from Camp Graham Saturday When asked yesterday by Meriden Record reporter what his impressions of the moral state of the camp was he replied.
 I am not at liberty to discover the inside life of camp, simply because there are 2,700 men on the field. It would be simply impossible to gather so many men of all sorts and conditions and from every walk in life and not know of some breaks.
 Now, to my mind the order of camp this year was excellent and the disci- pline was good. Governor Coffin ex- pressed himself so personally to me He told me Thursday morning that he was delighted at the excellent discipline maintained on the camp field If it Is a fact, and believe it Is, there were only three cases who made trouble be- cause they had been drinking. It stands to reason that the moral tone of the camp this year transcends every thing ever known before. For myself, saw only one man who was intoxicat- ed, and this is remarkable because it is hardly possible to keep hard stuff out of camp when it is so easy for the boys to bring it in for personal use.
 "A good rule was enforced Monday morning when foafers were sent away from the camp by the guards. The effect of this was apparent in every sense. I believe it to be the intention of the present staff in all the regi- ments to eliminate the drink element as much as possible. That a reaction from previous years has set in is evi- dent
 Finally, the life of the camp, the work of the camp, and all the features that go to make, up camp life will make the camp of the year one of the pleas ant memories beyond anything previous years have known. '

Parade and Annual Shoot at New Brit
 ain-Target Practice Again To-day.
 New Britain, Aug. 24.-The annual parade and tournament shoot of the Southern New England Scheutzen bund was held in this city to-day. The vis- iting clubs were met at the depot at 9:30 a. m, by the local club and the line was formed on Church street.

Louis J. Mueller of this city acted as grand marshal.

Speculation in Stock Market Yesterday
 Dull and Professional

Dull and Professional
 New York, Aug. 24.-Speculation at the stock exchange was dull and pro- fessional to-day. The fluctuations in prices were on a par with the trans actions, very few stocks changing as much as point during the day. At the opening the market was weak at moderate selling for London and local account Western Union was quite a feature at the start, 1,500 shares chang ing hands at 74B@731s. On Saturday the last transaction recorded was T5ss.
 The selling of telegraph had little in- Huence on the general list and at the expiration of the first hour of business the entire list was on the advance once more. The buying was based on the idea that the clearing house loan com mittee intended to issue certificates at their meeting to-day. It was agreed that this action would be a material assistance to merchants who are unable to place their paper at present and that the security markets would reflect the improvement in mercantile circles later on.
 The traders immediately began to discount 8 probable issue of certificates and their moderate purchases soon brought about general advance in prices, The Manhattan bounded up PA to 7SA, but this was exceptional. West ern Union recovered from 731s to 75ss and Sugar, the grangers, Louisville and Nashville rose 14 6D11s per cent.
 Renewed weakness in sterling ex- change renewed the hope of fresh inn portations of gold, and this also had some influence in bringing. about the higher range of stock quotations The demand from the shorts fell off to- ward the close and there was a disposi- ton to put out fresh contracts in a small way.
