The Stock Market Was Completely De-
morniized Throughout Yesterday,

The stock Market Was Completely De-
morniized Throughout Yesterday.
| New York, Oct. 25.-The conviction
that rupture in our relations with
| Spain will ultimately result from the
Cuban question, the danger that the
Union Pacific reorganization plan will
be upset by the governments desire to
postpone the sale, and weakness in
New York Central due to yesterday
disaster on It's line, combined to break
the stock market to-day and demoraliz-
ed prices throughout the list.
The lower prices for American secur-
tiles in London and the decline in the
price of Spanish tours there of y per
cent, to 59M, were accepted as a meas
ure of the apprehension felt there as to
the harm that would be done to values
by the threatened rupture. The open
ing showed sharp declines in the inter-
national stocks and the specialties, and
by noon losses of e. point or over had
spread to practically every active stock
in the list. There was a lull in the ac-
tivity of the liquidation at that time
and a steadying Of prices based on a
hope that the supreme court would
hand down a favorable decision in the
Nebraska maximum freight rate case
and that the prices of railway prop
erty would tend to improve as a re-
suit.
A sharp rally in Chicago Gas on the
announcement Of the declaration of the
regular dividend helped to steady the
list. But the afternoon was given to
alternate periods of active liquidation
and fast falling prices, and of stagna-
ton and slight rallies.
The announcement of the govern
ments decision to apply for postpone
ment of the foreclosure sale Of the
Union Pacific and Kansas Pacific prop
critics brought out enormous liquidation
of Union Pacific stock. There was no
check apparent in the liquidation or in
the fall in the price as a result of the
announcement of the reorganization
committee that it intended to bid the
Union Pacific main line, if need be, for
the full amount of the governments
claim. This would involve an increase
of $8,000,0OO over the latest upset price
which the syndicate agreed to insure
the SOVeTlluSlIl, anu OI over xl2,OUO 600
over the price fixed at the time the
present reorganization plan was agreed
upon. The purpose of the reorganiza-
ton committee to divide the reorgani-
cation of the Union Pacific main line
and the Kansas Pacific into two opera
lions failed to quiet the doubts of those
who have speculated in Union Pacific
on the basis of the present reorgapiza-
ton plan.
The governments second mortgage
on the Kansas Pacific for about s14 :
100000 is unprovided for, and the reor-
ganization committee takes the stand
that the government will be allowed to
bid the property in if it is not willing
to take the bid of the committee. The
fear that this would endanger the plan
Of reorganization evidently augmented
the selling.
The sale of the stock constituted one
sixth of the total transactions of the
day. The days net declines in all tbe
active stocks ran from l per cent. to |
over per cent, and in Consolidated

more and more despairing. "She was
so preoccupied all the morning she
hardly knew where she was. She may
have forgotten all about the carriage
and gone on alone. It is only few
blocks off anyway. Depend upon it,
Tom, that's it."
1T may be-" said Tom. "You ought
to know more about your own sex than
do. If they are capable of such things,
all right. We will 60 and see, at all
events. 1t is long after eleven, and if
your explanation is the true one the girl
must have been married by this time
and gone to breakfast"
"Oh, pray heaven it is so!' exclaimed
his wife fervently.
II am afraid the devil has been taking
hand in this business" said Tom.
"But come on. We shall know di.
rectly."
They were driven to the church, but
had only crossed the threshold when
they saw that Olympia was not there.
The Clergyman was there, and the bride
groom, and thousand fashionable spec
tators; but the bride was-where?
Tom had to do the most unwelcome
deed of his life. He went up the aisle,
looked his friend in the face and told
him that Olympia had vanished. The
count had already had time to feel anx-
ious. He met the news like man, but
his countenance seemed to grow old and
haggard in few moments.
"Where is Garcia!" demanded Tom.
II haven't seen him this morning."
II suspect him of having hand in
this. HIM" said Tom, swear
ing out loud in church between his set
teeth.
LET us get out of this and get to
work." said the count. Tell the clergy
man to notify the people. There is no
time to lose."
He and Tom passed out of the door of
the sacristy, while the clergyman, in sad,
melodious accents, informed the people
that owing to the sudden severe illness
of the bride the wedding would be post
poned.

French maid-in-w waiting, with the Rus

her guest under her eyelashes, but he

that will not tell you what you want

"Perhaps, you had better give me
some assurance, in the first place, that
you can tell me what want to know"
Sallie hesitated a moment, and her
hand moved toward box on the table,
But she withdrew it and said: "No,
will not do even that. You think me
unreasonable, of course, but can't help
it; must conduct this affair in my own
way or not at all"
This whimsical pretense of feminine
fussiness in the face of a situation so grim
and tragic had a certain informal humor
about it that almost made the count
laugh. 1t was as if she were to protest
that it would quite make her head ache
to murder man with carving knife:
an Italian poinard of the Fifteenth cent
ury was the only instrument she could
think of operating with.

she gracefully began the brewing of the
tea. II haven't the material nor the

assassin on the premises, not to speak of
magic mirrors and oriental enchanters,
and beautiful specters. BY the way, that
was a wonderfully clever trick. How
was it done:"
"You must ask Garcia" replied the
count, quietly, as one who had made up
his mind to endure up to certain point,
and then no more.
'Do you think Garcia would tell me
any secret of yours?' said Sallie. She
gave the question a flavor Of arch sur
prise that sent the count on Il swift jour
ney of expectation. After all, why had
Garcia left him? lie began to surnise a
possible reason, but he said only, II have

"Yes; so have we ALL" she replied.

LtSlG!" she said.
Within an hour from the time when
Olympia Raven and the Count de Lisle
should have been made man and wife
all the detective skill available in New
York was engaged in searching for the
bride. Not only that, but men were
stationed at every possible point of exit
from the city; kilograms were sent to
every village, town and city within a
thousand miles; every steamer, vessel
and vehicle leaving or about to leave
Now York was searched In the course
of day or two thousands of photo
graphs of the missing girl were distrib-
utod in al, directions over the country,
and were posted up at every street cor
ner, in every church, in every place of
amusement in the city. Accompanying
them was an offer OF a reward that has
probably never been paralleled i'll the
history of the world: One million dollars
cash for information that would lead to
the recovery of Olympia Raven, or of
her body if she were dead, and ten mill
ion dollars to any one who would bring
and limb. Meanwhile the papers de-
voted columns to the discussion of the
matter; it was talked of in every house
hold in the United States; long cable
grams on the subject We're sent to
Europe, and it is not too much to say
that by the end of week nearly every
inhabitant of the civilized world had
heard the name of Olympia Raven and
knew something Of her history.
1t seemed impossible that all this
should fail to bring some news of her;
and quite as much if she were dead as if
she were alive. How could a person.
and girl of striking beauty at that
vanish so utterly and suddenly that no
one of the millions of her fellow Great
ures, their senses sharpened and their
cupidity aroused by the promise Of
wealth to fabulous amount, should be
able to give single scrap of information
concerning her? Had no one seen her
pass? Had no one received her where
she was gone? If no longer in this life,
did earth and water SO effectually con-
ceal her remains that no eye could be
drawn to the spot? If she had been foully
dealt with, was there no accomplice
whose greed would tempt him to open
his lips? Be that us it might, no syllable
of news was received. If Olympia had
gone out of existence like the flame of
candle, she could not have left less trace
behind her. The whole world had been
asked where she was, and, cudgel its
brains as it would, it had been able to
frame no reply.
Early in the proceedings Tom Ban
nick had followed up his notion as to
Garcia, and his investigations had ended
in discovering the man III Philadelphia.
When found he was in a drunken stu
por, and the proprietor Of the hotel at
which he was staying said that he had
been there since the night of April 80
twelve hours before Olympia disap-
peared. On coming to his proper senses
Garcia had little to say for himself. He
intimated that drink had been his demon
from the beginning, and that an occa-
sional spree he must have When ques-
toned as to Olympia he merely shook

tered by Japan against the acquisi-
ton of the Sandwich Islands by the
United States government This is
misleading and untrue. Japan has al
ways maintained amicable relations
with the United States, and it is not
our purpose now to take any steps
that would lead to breach of mutual
goodwill, but at the same time Japan
will stand firmly in the maintenance
of it's rights and privileges acquired
under treaty with the Hawaiian gov
eminent. If the United States decides
TO annex Hawaii we hope to be able to
enforce our demands for indemnity for
the violation of treaty rights in the
expulsion of Japanese immigrants from
the island and their exclusion from the
rights acquired under our treaty.
Concerning President Mckinley mes
sage, and more particularly refer
ring to the relations of Japan with the
United States in connection with the
proposed annexation of Hawaii, Mr..
Hoshi declined to express any views
beyond reiterating what he stated at
the outset, that there would be no
disposition on the part of Japan to re-
sist the acquisition of Hawaii by the
United States, but that he hoped to
be able through diplomatic negotiations
to bring about a peaceful solution of
the matters involved.
