the level reached last week. the advances
thus far scored may be seem in the last
column OF the following table:

The advances of lS79-sl extended over n
longer period Of time. but thus far the
present rise in the railroad share list has
evidently by no means reached the extent
which characterized the same kind Of
stocks in the last great bull market. 1t is
also to be noted that the industrials, n
class of securities which were unknown
to the market at the earlier date. have
made appreciations which in extent
approximate to the performances of the
regular list in the former boom, though,
rs in the case of Sugar, which has the
heaviest advance Of anything. its rise was
secured within a comparatively short
period and preceded the manifestations of
general bullishness in the market at
large.

AN ALLEGED SHORTAGE.
Loan Assoc oeIation's Treasurer Falls to Ae

Loan AssoeIatfon's Treasurer Falls to Ac-
 count For Large sum.
 Trenton, Aug. 24.-Peter w. Crozier secretary and treasurer of the Mercer and Mechanics Building Loan associa- tions, Is short sS9. .740.5s in his accounts, if the report made by the committee of investigation quietly appointed some weeks ago Is well founded. About 300 shareholders of the two companies met at Liberty hall to hear the report. and there was a stormy scene when the facts were disclosed. The shareholders were angry. threatening language was used, and one woman became hyster- ical.
 Crozier, who Is about 65 years old. has not been arrested. He has a wife and family and until recently stood high in the community. His only answer to the charge thus far made known is a denial of the correctness of the figures.
 The report of the committee shows that 1.500 shares of the companies are outstanding, to the value of Sl94, l51.76. while the assets are s104. .411.1S. The dif- ference represents the shortage. IL is believed that there will be big shrink age in the assets when an attempt to realize on them Is made and that the loss to the shareholders will be greater than now indicated
 Crozier some time ago executed a mortgage in favor of the associations to meet any shortage that might be found. This mortgage was for $So.OoO. He also owns a number of shares of stock, which are valued at 5000.
 When he made the mortgage. Crozier also made an assignment to his son Edward. Crozier owns considerable property and Is associated with several business enterprises.

ed in a hollow square. Stepping to the
 front of the piazza, Mayor Jewett. on
 behalf of the citizens committee, pre-
 scented the camp to the commander in
 chief. General Clarkson accepted the
 camp on behalf of the veterans In a short and felicitous speech.
 General Clarkson entered the pavilion
 when his remarks were concluded and
 was given an impromptu reception by officers from Fort Porter and officers of the national guard. Later he made an
 inspection of the camp in company
 with the officers of his staff, after which
 he returned to his headquarters at the
 Iroquois.
 The camp is named in honor of the
 mayor of Buffalo and is situated at the
 Front, a broad plaza on the city park
 system, adjoining Port Porter and over
 looking Lake Erie, the mouth of the
 Niagara river and the Canadian shore.
 At its entrance on Porter avenue, a few blocks below the reviewing stands. is
 an arch. It is made to resemble granite
 and forms an imposing entrance. The tents in Camp Jewett are mostly of the round class known as Indian
 tepee. They are arranged in streets. the central avenue being named In hon. or of General Grant. On the north the streets are named after Generals Sheri-
 dan. Mcclellan. Meade, Pope and Burn side. Those to the south side are Sher-
 man and McCook. The cross avenues
 are Franklin, Porter. Hancock. Rosen-
 crans. Hooker. Mcdowell, Schofield, McPherson. Stanley. Logan, Halleck,
 Bell Thomas and Granger.
 At the exit from the camp and on the line of the Fort Porter ramparts stands the fifth and last arch. It Is in the form of horseshoe and Is finished in imita- tian iron.
 The President Warmly Greeted. President Mckinley arrived in the city yesterday afternoon and was re- ceived with boundless enthusiasm by the veterans. Last evening he was ten- | aered banquet at ths Ellicott club
 and also attended a number of camp fires and receptions.
 The banquet in honor of the president was given by Columbia post of Chicai.o, | by whom he was escorted from the Ni- | agara House to the EIlicott building. As the president passed from the hotel to | the banquetshall the police had to liter | ally drive a way through for the car | riages. and at the Ellcott club the cor | riders were so densely packed that he had to be lifted through by stalwart po- | licemen. In the reception room of the | club he met the prominent citizens of l Buffalo, and then little laSr he en-
