at the Stock Exchange to-day was quiet
and in the main firm. At the opening
the market was weak for a time. on
London selling. Local operators were
also sellers to moderate extent, the

began to improve. and under the leader
ship OF General Electric, Sugar. Tennes-
see Coal and Iron, and the Changers, an

gain. moving up from 20 to 81. The rise
in the stock was due 10 the revival of the
report that the company had secured a
contract TO furnish the Manhattan COM

the Manhattan say that all there is i'm the
story is that the Electric Storage-Battery
Company will make an experiment on the
Thirty fOurth-street branch within the
next three months.
Union Pacific rose IA to s; Sugar

there were sales TO realize. and profits

seller OF Burlington at this time, on
the December statement of earnings.
The market closed steady. Net changes

ington and Quincy lost 5-s per cent. and

Circulation, decrease. Nl.500.
The banks now hold 81. s23, 400 In excess
Of legal requirements.
The Financial Review. commenting on
the statement. says: II has been the
custom among certain Of the New York
banks. when they buy new issues Of gov
eminent bonds, TO enter them as loans
that Is, loans to the government-and
there Is no reason to believe that this
custom will be departed from after the
allotment of the pending bond loan.
An Increase In the loan column Is a
feature that might well be made at the
present time, since the total has gradually
fallen until Il is much the smallest
that has been seen since the late panic
The banks report a gain OF s.. i21 800 in
cash during the week, although the In
terror movement must have increased
their holdings not much less than
5000 COO.
The increase in specie was only s6s5. 600
II would be interesting to know how
much Of this was in gold and what pro-
portion In silver certificates. The state
ment. IL 1t is 10 be interpreted in a gene
raj sense. means. more than anything
else. that the banks have made annie
preparation to meet the new loan. They
held at the close OF the week an excess
cash reserve of S35.Oo0Oo0. as compared
with about s1s.Oo0.oOO during the middle
of December. They have reduced their
loans over 100000. and they have
100000 more In cash holdings than at
the time mentioned.
The coming week and its incidents will
greatly affect the next statement. but
the full effect OF the bond loan will be
witnessed I'm variations In the state
ment extending over weeks.

RALEIGH's BUDGET.
Conferences OF Repubiicnns-Army
Post observation-disclosures.

RALEIGH, n. c., February 1.-(Spe-
cial)-The conference Of Republicans here
last night, in which Hon. S. II. Dockery
and CONGRESSMAN Settle were the leaders.
was participated in by all the local
straight-out Republicans. Mr.. Dockery
said to me this morning that he was for
fusion with the Populists on State and
local issues but was opposed to 1t on
an electoral ticket. In this he agrees
fully with Mr.. Settle. Indeed, all those
present shared this view.
1t was stated yesterday that Congress-
man Settle had a negro secretary at
Washington. He says he has two men
at work there addressing documents OF
the last Congress to persons in the Firth
District, and that one OF these IN Morris
Corbett, the negro in question.
The outlook for the establishment of an
army post here is gratifying. Both sena-
tors and most Of the representatives are
working hard to secure IL. A delegation
of influential men from hese VIII so TO
Washington in the interest OF the bill.
The attacks on the fee system of pay
ment OF United States deputy marshals
are becoming frequent and severe, and
the statement Is made that salaries ought
to be paid.
Engineer Peasants. who was scalded
IN the wreck at Manly night before last.
is resting easily at his home here, though
suffering from the injuries TO his hands.
His face IL not badly scalded.
FOR BETTER DEPoTs.
There is an earnest movement for better
depots at many points on the railways In
this State. This is particularly the case
at Greensboro and Durham. Raleigh has
by far the handsomest depot In the State.
The Republicans are ina stir these days.
Congressman Settle. one Of their most
active men, Is here, there. and every
where. He has had a conference at
Greensboro with Marshall Mott, son Of
Dr. John j. Mott.
High Point is going ahead as the lead
ing place In the State for the manufacture
OF furniture. 1t has six factories in opera
ton. and three more are ordered TO be
built and equipped.
At Pine Bluff, near Southern Pines, in
Moore county. a great deal Of work is
going on. Orchards and vineyards are
being increased in acreage rapidly there.
and in all that section. Moore county Is
one OF the chief centres Of development
In the State.
Cases OF measles are increasing in num-
Der here. In Charlotte there were sixty
two deaths during January. which breaks
the record. and OF these no less than
twenty-three we're due 10 measles and
