This delegation is only one OF large

for a delegation of the same size from
New York city. but these special delega-
tons include only very small proportion
OF the delegates who VIII come TO the
Sound as there are many of the ex-
cursions organized from different East
ern states which will be only for the
outbound trip. The delegates returning
viii take such routes IS they choose and
return in small parties, stopping over
for a long time to visit such points of In
terest as they may prefer.
The convention at San Francisco closes
July II, and the tickets are good return
ing up to August Is. allowing fun month.
during which 1t can b. expected that
large numbers OF Easfern people will be
passing through end stopping over at
Seattle.
Every effort will be made to draw these
people to Puget sound points and to en-
terrain them during their sojourn.

The stock market opened up again this
morning and held it's strength In manner
that was perfectly satisfactory TO the most
sanguine bulls. All the Vanderbil;s were
strong. with Omaha at the head Of the process
sion. This Is a stock that is gaining In favor
every day and the belief that IL Is the security
that will lead the market by making the
greatest advances is rapidly gaining ground.
The physical and financial condition OF the
road is comparatively better than that OF any
company ON the list. Joseph is of the opinion
tha. il will soon sell at 75, and there are
others who are looking for still better prices
on the ground that the road is earning about
twice the amount of its dividend.
The market for the American securities
closed steady today. Prices were fully mp TO
New York parity, and there wrs scarcely an
advance that was not maintained. Consols
were firmly held at 1l2 1-l6. The New York
foreign houses had practically no orders for
London account today.
An important rumor wasscurrent today to
the effect that Mr.. W. X. Vanderbilt had
appeared actively in the market. IL was also
stated that he was notified that there had
been a change in the condition Of things and
that the advance in the issues that bear the
family name was due to his efforts and those
of his following.
vice-President Bond of st. Paul is quoted
by Dow. Jones g. Co. as saving that the road
is in as good a condition as it has ever been
and that 1t was fully the equal, in every re-
spect, of any other western railroad property.
The bank statement is as follows: Reserves,
decrease 50, ,698 $50; loans, increase. $3.50, 700;
specie, increase, is2l2, 400; legal tenders, de-
crease. s2.5g7 900; deposits, increase. 81, ,232,-
7O0: circulation. decrease, sl94, 800.
The denials of the Rubber people that there
Is any trouble with the company has had but
little effect on the market. Some body is owl
IDENTIFY selling largely and the stock today
dropped to 1879 for the common and 65 for the
preferred.
dispatch to Hallett, Anderson g. Co. states
that people who have been bearish on the rest
of the market have been bullish on New York
Central ever since the Lake Shore funding
scheme was announced. There is general
feeling that the stock will sell considerably
above par before the funding plan is an
nounced.

Northampton, Mass, March 13.-The

Officer Stevens heard the explosion and
buried to the depot. AT the corner he
says he saw man standing evidently on
guard. As the officer approached the man
fired at him with revolver and then dis
appeared before the officer could return
the shot. Officer Stevens says he gave
chase and saw four young men hurrying
down the tracks. He went after them
)ut they opened fire at him with their
revolvers and he retired. Why the officer
lid not take part in the shooting seems To
e a mystery for he was armed.
Chief of Police Maynard and w. A. Lee,
station agent, were called to the scene

station by means of window, the
of which was turned with case
fe. The door of the ticket office was
reed open, and the work was begun on
ne safe with drill in common bit
sock. The burglars tried to make hole
through the top but gave IL up and then
Qucceeded in drilling through the side.
The safe was a small one and cracked
without much difficulty. The ticket case
VAS not locked.
Glass in the Office windows was blown
out, and the interior was badly damaged
by the explosion.

A NEW INVESTMENT.

r. J. knight s. Co., bankers, today offered
to the investing public in amounts of 500 and
upward the first mortgage per cent gold
bonds of the Wyoming Development and
Transportation Company. The mines OF this
company have been in operation for some
time and large amounts of high grade free
milling gold ore are now being shipped. 1t is
the intention Of the company to list its stock
on the New York Exchange at an early date
at price which will insure large returns to
the holders in case they desire TO sell, and
they would still have their bonds. which they
can hold or dispose of as they may elect. The
directors of this company .are men of high
standing. United States Senator John M.
Thurston of Nebraska heading the list, and
its officers are practical business men. The
further fact that Mr.. Knight who, as is well
known here, is thoroughly posted in all mat
ters pertaining to mining, has investigated
and recommends these securities, should be
sufficient to command the careful consdera-
tin Of those who may have money to invest
and who are desrous of obtaining the largest
returns consistent with absolute safety.

Cause of Cuba.

Boston, March 13.-Frank Siske 81
years of age, the young man who was ar
rested for the alleged robbery of yachts a t
City Point, was brought before Judge
Fallon in the South Boston Court this
morning on three counts on breaking and
entering and one count of larceny. When
Clerk Tuttle read the complaint and
asked Siske If he was guilty or not the
prisoner hesitated but implied that while
he might be guilty, someone else was inn
plicated in the wholesale robbcries that
took place at City Point last year. He
was held in 5000 for the April term of the
Grand Jury.
Siske claims that he stole the articles To
raise money, which he gave to the Cuban
Junta here to express his sympathy with
their cause.
