New York Stock Market Was Again
Dull and Weak.
DECLINE IN AMERICAN SUGAR
Coal Road Shares Also Showed
Marked Weakness.
GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Dispatch to the Evening Star.
NEW YORK, November 11.-An absence
of commission buying and some sales for
London account had a depressing influence
on prices this morning.
The regular fortnightly settlement in the
foreign market passed over satisfactorily.
and money rates remain satisfactory to
borrowers. Notwithstanding these encour-
aging local developments, the American
market in London was heavy and lacking
in interest
In addition to these influences the anti
trust decision, upon closer inspection was
found to be less advantageous to organized
or concentrated capital than was at first
supposed. The coal shares opened at frac-
uonal declines in consequence Of the dis
covery, and other properties concerned with
the ruling receded sympathetically.
The Granger shares were given good sup
port for time, but later Joined the declin-
ing movement under the influences of crop
advices.
American Sugar developed into an ed-
verse factor by reason of liberal selling.
and a decline of per cent The activity
In these shares gave direction to the entire
u arket, the professional element meeting
with almost no opposition TO their efforts to
force declines.
Washington: adyices announcing the post
ponemeht of the Dutch sugar decision until
after the first Of the month had some in
f1uelce Oil the action of the stock
In broader market the influences Of
the day would have had small weight, but
under present conditions there is little need
of important developments to force a hack
ward movement in prices. The organiza-
ton Of the selling party is generally con-
ceded whereas the presence of the OPPOSE
ton ia often doubted.
Earnings were again of a nature warrant
ing confidence in substantial additions to
merit later on, but there is an absolute lack
of a desire to discount this prospect by pur-
chaSes at this time. While conservative
houses no longer recommend the sale of
securities, it Is fashionable to advise a
to mporary postponement Of buying IL
contemplated.
This attitude clearly indicates a willing
ness on the part of the larger financial in
terests to leave the market in the hands of
the room element until definite advices are
had as to what will happen at Washington
during the coming month.
Continued weakness in Sugar gave a
heavy tone to the closing, but there was no
change in general conditions.

WHO WAS ASSAULTED.

AT Any Rate John Green Ii Behind
the Bars.
John Green coupe driver, assaulting an
officer and disorderly conduct
Such was the entry made on the blotter
of the first precinct station house at 1
o'clock today, in consequence Of an episode
that occurred in front of Calls jewelry
store on Pennsylvania avenue. The difficult
~ arose out of the fact that John Green
and another driver had been rivals for the
patronage of two young men. Green's COM
petitor secured the job. which engaged
John to the point of interference. His an
cry protestations and efforts to tempt the
passengers into his own vehicle attracted a
crowd and gradually material detachment
of the police force was OH duty at the de-
bate.
Suddenly, John Green, who had been
standing by the coupe door for some min
utes, was roughly seized by one of the Off
GERS, who tried to put an end to the dis
turbance by pulling him away. Immediate
iy there was a scrimmage, and John was
very roughly handled. 1t is probable that
rot one of the hundred or so spectators
saw John assault an officer" but it is
certain tnat many score of people saw at
least one of the officers assault John in a
most brutal manner
Policeman No. 126 engaged in some cluh
ana nst exercises at the expense of Johns
feelings and comfort. He did this, how
ever with the aid of several of his COL
leagues. While two other policemen were
holding Green firmly between them this
policeman dubbed the man deliberately on
the neck. There was further scuffiing.

Green while the latter was being held by
three or more of his companions, and

cabman that submission was wiser than re-
slstance, and he suffered himself to be led
