which have advanced only IL cents to
) cents in price, but iobbers are buying
q little more as stocks run low. Leather
is stiff and shade stronger.
Enormous purchases of billets came
with rush. most of the large concerns
contracting for all they required for
months and even year to come. and
some of the largest contracts are said TO
have been about S15, or even less, but
there is as yet no better demand for
structural work Bars are weak, nails
have declined to 81 40 for wire and $1.30
for cut, and little is doing in rails as
possible buyers think $25 is too high
with billets at S15 per ton. Nevertheless
great trade is expected when relative
prices become settled.
The aggregate loss in railroad earnings
of all railroads in the United States re-
porting for December, or part of the
month, is $36,470O76, a decrease of "a
per cent compared with last year and of
SO per cent compared with the cores
ponding time in 1892 The later re-
ports make n more favorable showing
than any Of the early reports of the
month. For the fourth week many
roads show considerable increase in
gross earnings. This increase is not
confined to any one section, but nearly
all the large systems report a large gain
in the fourth week. Compared with
1880. the roads reporting losses are
greatest in the grangers. The total for
December compared much more favor
ably with preceding years than the first
final report for November.

MEXICAN MATTERS.
Resident Cubans Will Assert Thei
m-Khevenhuller's Visit.

City of Mexico, Jan. S.-Many dis
agreeable incidents are occurring daily by
reason of the warm partisanship shown
by the Mexican masses for Cubans and
their openly displayed antagonism for
resident Spaniards. Leading Cubans
here consider Professor Starr of Chicago
as prejudiced in his views on Cuban in
dependence and ask why, if Cubans are
not, in Stars opinion, fit to govern
themselves, autonomy should be for a
moment considered by the Spanish gov
eminent. Cubans here do not believe
Spain intends to carry out her program
of reform. They are practically unani-
nous for independence and then anneXa-
ton to the United States.
Prince khevenhuller and the princess
are being quietly entertained here. They
have called on President Diaz and
family and have been most cordially re-
ceived The prince having been here
under MaXimilian's empire and having
taken an active part in the civil war
raging at that time feels that it would
be indicate for him to express his
views to newspapers. He visited at
Queretaro and all places made memorable
by the sieges and went with his travelling
companions to the Hill of Bells, where
Macmillan was shot, and declined din
ner offered him by private citizens. His
visit, in connection with the recent
decoration bestowed on the president of
the republic by the king of the Belgians,
brother of Empress Carlotta, is taken to
imply that the re-approachment between
Austria and Mexico will come about
Austria, since the execution of Maxi.
milan, has never appointed minister
here, but the emperor of Austria has
repeatedly shown marked distinction to
Mexican officers who served under Maxi.
milan when they have visited Vienna
Local Austrian residents, some of whom
came over with Macmillan and re-
manned here, are paying many graceful
attentions to Prince Khevenhuller.

STOCK REVIEW.

New York, Jan. S.-Bradstreet'S review
of the stock market tomorrow will say:
In point of activity the first week of
the new year has proved disappont-
ment to Wall street. Not only have trans
actions proved to be on a very limited
scale. but the character of the actual
trading has been very professional. To
compensate for this feeling, prices have
been inclined TO advance when any little
encouragement appeared TO warrant So
doing, while bear interests weakened from
time to time and even sold stocks to some
extent. The impressions secured, how
ever. were narrow as far as the general
list is concerned. and the chief incident
of the week was the reduction of the Del
aware and Hudson dividend rate from Z
to ) per cent. which caused a decline to
that stock, but its influence outside the
anthracite group was limited. The firm
feeling on the market as whole was at
tributed to q belief that the Cuban resolu-
ton was worn out and reports from
Washington that the Cuban resolutions
would not be pressed forward in the SEN
ate. More or less stress is laid on the
somewhat better reports of railroad earn
ings, and the news in the southwest that
corn is moving more freely, which has an
appreciable influence on some of the gran
ger stocks.
The bond market is less active than
had been expected in view of the large
payments on January /. though the in
vestment demand is sufficient TO keeT
prices steady.

WANT THE LAWS ENFORCED.

Corsicana, Tex, Jan. S.-(Special.)IAt
the "week of prayer" meetings, when
are being held this week, reference mas
bee been made publicly at some of the gather
ings to the gambling dens, houses of i'll
fame and other similar violations of law
now occurring in the city of Corsieana,
and County Attorney Lewis Carpenter
contends that criticisms have been made
on the county officers for non-enforce-
ment of the law. Today subpoenas
were issued through his instrumentality
to the different ones who addressed the
meetings, including Rev. ALT Mulkey,
Rev. L. C. Kirkes, Rev. Mr.. Fulkerson,
Rev. Mr.. Bigger, Rev. NJ. s. Hotchkiss
and Messrs. Rink Evans and II. &.
Damon, to appear before him and furnish
him with the necessary information for
conviction.

GALVESTON GRAND JURY.
True Bill Returned Against 11-Year- Old
Louis Shepherd, Charged With
Murder.

Galveston, Tex, Jan. 7.-(Special.)-
The gnad jury today returned true bill
against James Louis Shepherd, the H.
year-old boy, who is charged with hav-
ing shot and killed Mary Falk, Deem
Der IS last. The indictment charges him
with murder in the second degree. The
case is set for January 81.
William Hansen, who was arrested by
the police in connection with the Martin
murder case. was released today. The
grand jury. after hearing all the evi.
dence in the case, promptly returned o
verdict of no true bill.
There has been practically unani-
nous opinion in police circles that Han
sen was entirely guiltless of any con-
nection with the killing of Martin. His
release has simply been a question of
time, until the grand jury convened.
Meanwhile he has only been nominally
detained by the police He left the sta
ton yesterday with radiant face, upon
being Informed that he had been entirely
eXonerated.
