Considered Stocks Held Up
Well Yesterday.

New York, Feb S.-Considering all
sion at the stock exchange, the mar
kets for securities held up remarkably
well. The news and rumors We're well
calculated to lead to marked depres-
sion, but except in the case of the in
dustrial group the bears made but lit
tie impression upon values.
The first thing that gave operators
for decline courage was the receipt
of lower quotations and of selling or
ders from London. Then came the
state senate investigation committees
inquiries into the affairs of the sugar
trust. which invited an attack upon
that stock, under which it broke near
ly 3 points, to 111%. A block of the
stock, which has been hanging over the
market for many days, was dislodged
by the decline.
Tobacco fell IL, to HM; Leather pre-
ferred III, to 5S1a; American Spirits Is,
to 1917 and the preferred LIS to 32A,
In the remainder of the list the losses
were only Il to / per cent, although
great efforts were put forth to make
capital out of the vague rumors con-
corning an alleged disruption of the
joint traffic association.
The browning effort of the bears,
however. was a cunningly devised
statement that a fleet had been order
ed to Cuba to release American prison
ers The denial of this sensational re-
port came so promptly from Washing
ton that the instigators We're unable to
carry into execution their purpose of
breaking the market, and in the last
hour they were running in lively fash
ion to cover their shorts. Sugar NOV

1t had been supposed that General
Electric would be benefited by the Off
cial statement that the company had
secured the contract to equip the sur
face lines recently acquired by the
Metropolitan Traction company with
the underground trolley.
The days operations resulted in an
addition to the outstanding short in

COL0NIA FINIsHED FIRST.
Cruise of the Atlantic Yacht Club-Saehem
Wins Schooner PRICE,

New London, July 9.-In a wholesail
breeze from the southwest the schooner
Colonia, the herald of the Atlantic
Yacht club fleet, crossed the finish line
off Sarahd's Ledge at 21S this after
noon, the winner of her class. Shortly
afterwards the rest OF the fleet put in
an appearance under full canvas and
dropped anchor in sight Of the crowds
at Pequot and East Point. The run
from Riverside was very successful
oneand the time made very satisfactory
to the yachtsrnen, the average time be-
ing little over seven hours. The win
ners in the six classes were as follows:
Colonia wins sail over prize for
schooner's in racing trim and the Post
ley cup for schooners In winning two
runs Of the cruise with double time al
lowed to other schooners.
/ Sachem wins prizes for schooners in
cruising trim for days run Syce wins
sail over prize for sloops In racing trim.
Gaviota wins prize for days run for
sloops Of class five in cruising trim.
Eidolon wins prize for days run for
sloops in class six in cruising trim and
one leg on cruise prize for sloops.

FOR THE KEAAIzATIoN sTIKEs.
The Winning Horse VIII Secure "a Prize of
the Value of $4,000.

New York, July 9.-There Is every
prospect of fine days racing at
Sheepshead tomorrow, for besides the
first half of the double event for two
year-olds, the rich Realization stakes
for three -year-olds will be run off and
the winner will get close upon 100000
for his victory. 1t looks as If the start
ers would be eleven in number, al
though some Of those who have said
they would send their horses to the
post may change their minds at the
last minute and conclude that the
chance is not worth $3.50, the cost of
starting.
In spite of the fact that The Friar ran
two very bad races lately, he is likely
to be the favorite, even though he will
be ridden by the same boy who made
a mess with him on the other occasions.
He should not, however. be held at a
very large margin over Scottish Chief
tain. the winner of the Belmont, as the
latter Is known to be able to go the
distance, and will be ridden by Taral.
Buddha tried a long time to get into
the first place before he was able to
and as the occasion of his winning was
also the riding of The Friar he is not
likely TO go to the post better than third
choice.
Three-year-old form Is by no means
what 1t should y this year and to-
morrow's race may result in just such
an upset as has been in every one Of
the three-year-old stakes this year.

FINAL WORK ON TIE TARIFF
CONFEREES HIRMONIZING HOUSE
AND SENATE DIFFERENCES.

Committee Members Took II Binding
Being Disposed of First-Thus Far There
Have Been No Serious Clashes-Sepato
Not Attempting to Coerce the House.
Washington, July 9.-The tariff con-
ferees put in very hard days work.
They met at $3.50, recessed at l for
luncheon and again at this evening
for dinner and at o'clock resumed
their sitting and continued in session
until late tonight. They have all taken
particularly binding pledge of secrecy
and are guarding their labors with un-
| usual vigilance.
Beyond the general statement that
they were making satisfactory progress
the conferees would say nothing, If
| the action Of the conferees on the va
| rious items should be divulged, they
| realize that it would involve them in
no end of complications, as all those
who are dissatisfied with the rates
agreed upon would be down here en-
masse protesting and insisting that the
| controverted questions should be re-
| opened.
AS it is. the conferees are already
| being deluged with kilograms and let
ters and fairly bounded at their hotels
| by those who are Interested In secur
ing either the senate or house rates.
| About the most Important thing thus
| far agreed upon Is that there viii be
but one conference report. Not until a
| final agreement Is reached will either Of
| the two houses be called upon to act.
! This course has been decided upon as
| the best means OF expediting final &C
ton, as it would be much easier to
convince those who might be dissatis-
fled with the rate fixed on a particular
item to abandon their opposition il by
so doing the struggle would end and
the bill become law. Partial reports
on the other hand, would give each
| house an opportunity to instruct on
particular items and necessarily entail
| delay
The conferees will leave the main
points in dispute until those of minor
Importance are out of the way. About
| 600 of the 300 amendments are compar-
atively unimportant and are being d.
posed of without difficulty. One of the
| conferees is responsible for the state
ment tonight that in their delibera- :
tions the conferees have as yet encoun-
tered nothing over which there has been
any great clash. The statement that
an attempt would be made by the SEN
ate conferees to compel the house to ac-
cept the bill as it passed the senate,
which was widely circulated to-day, is
emphatically denied on the authority of
one of the house con ferees
The conference adjourned at 10:45 to-
night to meet again at $50 tomorrow
morning. All the main points which
promised to be strongly contested were
passed over.

CHANGES IN CIVIL SERVICE.
President Confers With Commission Con.
cerningProposed Revisions.

Washington July 9.-The president
and the members of the civil service
commission have had a number of con-
ferences recently on the question of a
revision of the civil service rules: so as
to exempt certain important places
which were included In Mr. Clevelands S
last extension order A final determin-
alton. however, has not been reached,
but II Is altogether probable that about
three hundred places will be taken out
of the classified service. These will
include deputy collectors who are in
charge of sub-stations and deputy col
lectors of internal revenue who have
charge Of the distribution of revenue
stamps. There are approximately one
hundred and fifty of these places in
each class.
1t is not proposed, however, to ex-
empt the places from examination.
Contrary to the usual course, tentative
appointments will be made as needed
and the appointee will then be ordered
before the civil service commission for
examination to test his fitness. In case
of failure to pass a perfectly satisfac-
tory examination his name must be
withdrawn and another appointee
named. It Is argued that the positions
which it is proposed to restore to the
accepted list are of great Importance.

PENSION 4dG ENCIES.
The Order of President Cleveland to be
Revoked by President Mckinley.

Washington, July 9,-The order Of
President Cleveland, issued last Feb
ruary reducing the number of pension
agencies from Is to 8 will be revoked
by President Mckinley within a few
days and probably early next week.
The original order was not to go into
effect until September l next The on
ly result of the revocation will be to
continue in force the present arrange
ment allowing all eighteen of the agen-
cies to remain in operation. Secretary
of the Interior Bliss is now out of town,
but he has conferred with the president
over the matter, as also has Commits
sioner of Pensions Evans, and 1t was
some time ago decided that it would
be unwise to permit the change of sys-
tenn to go into effect and that for the
present, however much some new
scheme might be necessary in the
near future, the plan for the best in
terests of the service was to continue
the existing system.
The proposed consolidation Of the
agencies at Concord, N, H., and Angus

made there We're to be made hereafter
at Boston, Mass, the pensioners here
tofore paid at Buffalo We're to be paid
from New York city; those at Pitts

those at Louisville and Knoxville from
Washington; those at Detroit from In

of Buffalo, Milwaukee and Topeka were
to have been discontinued and new
agency created at ST. Louis.
