MARKET AND STOCK REPORT
Wall Street Review.


New York. April 34-The stock market
was a very tame affair again today. The
volume of business was small and the
changes. az a rule. confined within narrow
limits. After comparatively steady
opening the bears made a demonstration
against the market and s.:sceeded in bring
ing about o decline Of to per cent.
The bears used the talk about impend-
ing heavy shipments Of gold against the
market but Their raid brought out very
little long stock and In the afternoon the
earlysellers turned buyers. The greatest
contest was over Sugar, which was sold
down to le2S soon after the opening. When
the shorts attempted to cover. the stock
way up was disappointingly small to the
bears. American Tobacco rose from us
to 725s. reacted to 7lSs and closed at 7lSt.

of last nights prices. Among the special
ties, Metropolitan Traction jumped to
lU7i2, while New Haven dropped to 10.
The trading was light In both. Ship
ments Of gold by Saturdays steamers are
still indefinite. None Of the bankers have
yet concluded arrangements to export
the yellow metal, although 1t Is tolerably
certain that a considerable amount will be
followed. 1t Is to be remarked that the
ket more limited than they had anticipate

the treasury department for part Of the

TWENTY HAVE RESIGNED.

Three young ladies, members of the
Salvation army. called at The Tribune
Office last evening in the interest Of
those members who will soon join
Volunteer corps in this city. They say
contrary to the report of the members
of the army. that there have been no
disturbances at the meetings in the
Price street barracks, as far as they
were concerned. Furthermore, not a
dozen. but twenty members of the army
have decided to abandon the Salvation
lists. According to the young ladies re-
ferred to, what has riled the Salvation
lists, IS that they did not send in their
designations to the officers of the local
corps. but sent them direct to the head
quarters in New York city. Another
thing which caused a harsh feeling, was
the fact that those members who had
sent in their designations We're in the
habit of participating in the meetings
of the army and, knowing of the in
tended desertion, the faithful soldiers
could not tolerate their activity at the
meetings. OF the twenty who have al
ready practically left the army, five
are local" officers, and there are a
number of the older members who will
Join Ballington Booth. Major Pattie
Watkins will be here next Sunday. In
the evening she will address a publ!c
meeting at the Simpson Methodist
Episcopal church. At this meeting it
Is thought that the Volunteer corps will
be formed.
