creased business in the stock market with
higher prices throughout the list. accomplished
entirely on domestic buying. foreigners showing
no disposition to enter into the market. Foreign
investors have not yet made their appearance
in the American security market. and so far
the chief dealings for the foreign account have
been the realization OF profits by London specu-
lators. European investors will without doubt
soon be prominent factors In the American Sc
curity market. and 1t Is not likely that the
threats OF Bryan and Jones and Altgeld to con-
tinue their work for an unsound currency and
National reputation will be enough to scare
European money from this market. Free sill
vers defeat has been too emphatic to allow its
resurrection. The various securities OF the many

taken out owing to the timidity caused by the
silver agitation is finding its way back. and the

Tennis Not on the wane.

In recent communication to the
New York journal, Hobart, the tennis
expert, speaks up for his favorite sport,
as follows: 1.-THE belief seems to be
prevalent among those not well informed
that tennis is ON the wane in this coun-
try, and that golf and bicycling com
bined have dealt it a deathblow. To
the best Of my knowledge no tennis
player Of any pretensions whatever has
deserted the game for golf, nor are
many likely to do so. Golf occupies ex-
actly the same position that tennis did
decade ago, when tennis court was
in every ones front yard and almost
every maid and youth in society and
out of it took it up because it was the
fashion. Without doubt tickle fashion
will tire sooner or later of its present
fad, and then golf, because it is a good
game, will emerge from its present UNI
healthy environments and take its proper
place among American sports, as tennis
did some time ago."
