The management of the Biograph, at
Willard Hall, appreciating the desire of
Neutrality-suspicious. for new views, will place
On exhibition Monday for the first time
eighteen new scenes. This marvellous in
vention has enjoyed a record-breaKing
success in this city, having been giving
daily exhibitions for over seventeen weeks.
Interest in the views has been constantly
on the increase and it has been the aim
of the management to not only show new
views, but to increase the number as well.
Already the program has been length
ened from twenty-four to nearly forty
views, and, beginning Monday, new ones
will be offered to the audiences. The most
popular Of the former pictures have been
retained, and consequently the public viii
have the advantage of both the old views
which have proven SO popular and the
new sets in addition. Among those which
will be shown for the first time next week
are: A pillow fight between children, in
which tile pillow breaks and ali are en-
veloped in feathers; playing doctor, show
ing a child in bed with her dolly in her
arms and another child wearing specta-
cles and a silk hat gIavely initiating the
actions of a country DOCTOR the Inaneu-
vers of the Seventy-first Regiment of
New York as it marched down Pennsyl-
vania avenue on Inauguration day; many
new army scenes; New England church
after services; the Yale football team at
practice, and q view of Park Row and
Broadway, New York city, showing the
city hall, postoffice and the newspaper
buildings OF that city. The exhibitions
this afternoon and tonight are for the
benefit OF the Swedenborgian Church. Per-
formances daily at 2:30, 4:3o and 8:15

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK MARKET.
The Features Of the Days Dealings In All
the Leading Stocks.

New York. Sept. 17.-Today's stocl
market was strong and the average
level of prices was considerably RAISED
as result of the days trading. It>was
a noticeable fact, however, that the
greatest activity was confined to spots
The gains were spasmodic in character
and it could not be said that there was
any simultaneous advance through tbs
whole list. During the periods while
an individual stock or group of stocks
was being advanced the general list
showed a disposition to fall into
neglect. 1t must be said, however
that the spasms of activity went the
round of pretty much the whole mar
ket. The Changers, the trunk lines
the Vanderbilts and the Southwesterns,
all of which have recently been checked
on realizing sales invited by previous
sharp gains showed recoveres today.
The most conspicuous feature of the
market, however. was the lively de-
mand for the Coalers. New Jersey
Central was carried up an extreme 81
to 101A crossing par for the first time
since Feb. 3, of this year. The decline
which preceded the reduction of the
dividend dated from that time and cul-
minated, May "a, when the stock
touched 6SA. 1t was one of the last
stocks to feel the impulse of the re-
covery of prices. The Reading stocks
all advanced point or. over during the
day but fell back sharply just at the
close. Lackawanna rose "a and Della
ware & Hudson 1A.
There was some stirring up of the
dead cats and dogs on the list also and
some sharp advances were recorded N
w-priced stocks. Louisville, Southern
preferred ard Mobile & Ohio all gained
considerably over a point. Atchison
preferred and Wabash preferred gained
a point or over net. Union Pacific was
heavily bought by London and closing
with net gain of nearly three points.
Mathattan which sold. today, ex-
dividend of per cent, recovered the
dividend and another point besides.
The Changers were less active than. OF
late but manifested strength, Chicago

than others in the current movement

Rescript.

The following rescript has been received
by Clerk of Courts Choate in the case of
Fairfield Savings Bank. in Equity VS..
E,Xr.
Konnebec County.
WhitehOuSe, j.
The plaintiff bank occupied the position
of a mere stakeholder. neither having nor
claiming any interest in the subject mat
ter. Its remedy was exhausted by the de-
cree that the claimants should interplead
with each other. and it was then wholly
without the controversy. The real con-
testants for the deposit were Lumber
Small on the one side. and the executor of
the will of Olive c. Small on the other.
Lumber Small was not a competent wit
ness under our statutes, and his deposit
ton was properly excluded from consider
alton.
Aside from the fact of the deposit. the
evidence fails to disclose any indication of
a purpose on the part of Lumber Small to
make an absolute gift of this money to
his wife, but on the contrary the infer
ence is irresistible from the subsequent
conduct and declarations of the parties:
that it was mutually understood by them
to be his money subject to his control.
the same as the money deposited in his
own name.
Nor is there any evidence that Lumber
Small ever delivered this deposit book to
his wife to be retained as her property.
No act is shown to have been done by
him for the purpose of passing the title to
her. There is an absence of proof of both
the intent to give and of any delivery to
complete the gift.
1t is the opinion of the court that the
deposit in question is the property of
Lumber Small. Decree accordingly.
