OLD PITTS GALLANT RIDE.

The good people of Greenwich are ar
ranging to do what opinion warrants
everybody in saying ought to have
been done some years ago, that is to
say, erect some kind of memorial to
call to mind General Israel Putnams
gallant ride down the stone steps at
Horse Neck, in that town, in the year
1777, which he not only escaped British
bullets, but added glory to the Ameri-
can cause for which he was nobly fight
ing. Those steps, so far as their form
is concerned, have somewhat lost their
identity partly on account of time and
it's ravages and through the want of
respect for association, by some of the
people. The Greenwich board of trade
and the Putnam Hill Chapter, D. A.
r., have jointly caused to be made a
tablet in bronze, commemorative of the
Revolutionary event, and it is soon to
be erected on one of the rocks nearest
the scene of "Old Puts" riding down.
The daughters here, including Mrs. L.
T. Day, have it in mind to go to Horse
Neck on that suspicious occasion and
assist in placing the tablet.-Norwalll

Stock Market Active and Animated.

New York, April 2S.-The stock mar
ket was quite active and animated to-
day compared with the lethargy and
sluggishness of yesterday. The days
business was not by any means large
and there were prolonged periods of
dullness between the spurts of activity
There was no outside interest in the
market OF any Importance and the buy
ing was due to the initiative of one or
two prominent operators, who distrib-
uted orders with a liberal hand all
through the active list. The aggressive
leadership invited more or less follow
ing among the small room traders. The
buying was based on the confident as
sumption that the approaching naval
engagement off the Philippines would
result in favor of the United States
forces. Bull operators expressed them
selves as confident tina. such a victory
would be good for a five to ten point
rise in the active stocks" The slight
declines at the opening, which were
due to the heaviness Of the London
market and which did not at any time
fall to the London parity were quickly
overcome. The excellent traffic state
rnents of the granger roads, the st.
Paul statement of yesterday being
supplemented by Burlingtons to-day,
were also factors in the strength. The
grangers were conspicuous in the trad
ing and led the advance in the railroad
list No doubt the distinctly easier
tone in the money market had some
thing to do also with the awakening
,,;t f,-io 1u
consultation yesterday between the Sec
rotary of the treasury and number of
financiers found it's reflection to-day in
feeling of confidence that the needs
of the United States treasury could be
met without inconvenience to the
money market. Call money was quite
abundant to-day and loans were made
as low as IL per cent. Rates for time
loans were quotably lower at from
IL to per cent. for all periods. 1t is
significant also of future prospects in
the money market that lenders hold out
for long periods at existing rates while
borrowers want money for not more
| than sixty days. In spite of the easier
conditions in money foreign exchange
yielded a fraction to-day. The keen
demand abroad for foodstuffs is MAX

ment to pay for purchases of war ma

money continued to the interior, but in
smaller volume. The currency famine

STUART ROBSON.

Owing to the bad weather only a
small audience greeted Stuart Robson
in his production of THE Jucklins. :"
But those who did attend enjoyed a
fine entertainment, full of action and
dash, the first act being especially So.
The production is one of the kind which
has taken well with the American pub
lie during the last few years. 1t por-
trays a quiet country life,S far from
the hurry and hustle of the city, where
the people enjoy the present and are
not all the time saving for the future.
The audience, although small, were not
slow in showing their appreciation and
called Mr.. Robson before the curtain
after both the second and third acts.
Mr.. Robson's part is well fitted to him,
although not SO much so as that of
Mr.. Ponderbury in Mrs. Pondernury' s
Past His peculiar quality of voice
reminds one of Joe Jefferson.
The supporting company was unusu-
ally strong. Thomas A. Wise's presen-
tation of the country politician Sheriff
Pailser, was especially good Miss Ger

Robson as the widow, Mrs. Patrick.

conservative manner and that the sur
plus will not be affected in a way which
will embarrass the institution.

selection of the First regiment to fill

of diminishing both the crowd and the

Second regiment are much disappointed
that their regiment was not the one
chosen. New recruits were drilled last
evening by several of the companies.
