THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review.

New York, Aug. 24.-There were sew
eral quite important movements Of
positive strength in the stock market
today. but the preponderating inhu-
ence of several weak features and the
very heavy profit taking by large
holders of leading stocks nullified
them. sharp advance in the gran
gers at the opening due to buying by
commission houses, and bidding up of
prices by traders, resulted only in
bringing very heavy offers to realize.
There were change of speculative in
terest from st. Paul and the grangers
into some of the lower-priced stock,
with dividend prospects. Northern Pa
ciftc was most conspicuous in this class
and was absorbed in enormous blocks,
closing at the top at an advance of
1850. There was very large demand for
Peoples Gas and marked strength in
some individual stocks, but these were
not sufficient to offset the persistent
profit taking. Manhattan was weak
and closed two points below last night.
Total sales were 512, 100 shares.

SAMPSON SIDES WITH GARCIA.
General Castillo Also Says That
Shafter Broke Faith.

Washington d. c., Aug. 24.-Admiral
Sampson before returning to New YORK
TO see hs family expressed approval
of the following interview published in
a local paper:
Il was very favorably impressed with
the Cubans." said Admiral Sampson.
General Garcia is a grand old man
and learned to admire him during my
short stay before Santiago. i think it
very natural that he should withdraw
his men when it seems that he was
not invited to witness the surrender of
Santiago. 1t has been asserted that
he was invited by General Shafter. AS
to that l do not know. He said him
self that he was not, and under the
circumstances it was appropriate that
he should be invited"
New York, Aug. 2i.-Brigadier Gen
eral Joaquin Castillo, who accompan-
led General Shafter to Cuba as rep
resentative of the Cuban army and the
Cuban civil government, has just re-
turned to this city. He said
Before the American forces landed
General Shafter and Admiral Sampson
met General Garcia at Aserraderos for
a conference, at which l was present.
General Shafter there, of his own ac-
cord. promised Garcia that on the sur
render of the city it would be turned
over to him."

AGUINALDo's CRACK BAND.
1t Made the Yankee Troops Distend
Their Ears in Glee.
Manila Letter in the Sun.


There may not be gains for all our
losses, but surely there are for some
of them. The thing which we least
expected we should find out here is
good music. A wonderful band
marched up the muddy Gale de San
Francisco from Aguinaldos headquar-
ters this morning and for an hour
serenaded General Anderson with play
ing that would set the music lovers of
New York wild with excitement.
The average Filipino does not pre-
sent the appearance of a musician or
music lover. But for his bright in
telligent eyes he would look like a
stupid Patagonian sheep herder. There
are few musical instruments in the ma
tive villages. Once in a while one
runs across a tin-pan-toned cracked
piano, horribly out of tune, and two
or three places have harps. But this
band, composed entirely of Filipinos,
is worthy to rank with the bands of
the world. 1t was the famous Military
band of Manila, where it used to fur
nish classic music on the Lunetta when
the aristocratic Spaniards went aut
for their evening drive or promenade.
And occasionally, or oftener, it was
turned out to play while few dozen
of the musicians people were shot for
the edification of the multitude on the
charge of sympathizing with the in
surrectionists or some other trumped
up accusation.
In Manila there were seventy-two
members. Sixty of them managed to
get away with their instruments and
music. This morning forty-eight play
ed on the little piazza in front of Gen.
eral Anderson's headquarters And
such playing! 1t was recompense for
every discomfort. every vexation, every
isappointment, every hardship Of

A man In the darkness of hopeless dis
ease is OF all men most miserable. When
doctors and medicines innumerable have
been tried and found wanting, and loving
friends vainly urge. upon him the food he
cannot eat and which brings him no nour.
ishment OF strength, what is to be done?
Men and women who have sunken so
far into weakness and disease that the
whole body seems to be permeated and
poisoned by 1t have found health,
strength and vigor through the transform
ing, electrifying power of that wonderful
Golden Medical Discovery" which DR..
R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, proffered,
thirty years ago, to sick and suffering hu-
manity.
During all the years since then this mar
velous Discovery has been building up
weak and debilitated constitutions by its
extraordinary influence upon the human,
nutritive system. II gives the digestive or
ganism keen power and capacity to appro-
pirate every life. giving element from the
food taken into the stomach and trans
forms 1t into rich, highly vitalized blood
and healthy flesh, bone, sinew and nerve
fiber.
Consumption in all its earlier stzges is
arrested and counteracted by the tissue
building, flesh making, life promoting pow
er of this grand medicine and there Is no
darkness of bodily ailment so dense but II
will shed upon the sufferer the light of re-
newed hope.

WHAT EUROPE HAS LEARNED
rom the Philadelphia Bulletin.

From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
1t is no eXaggeration to say that the
United States occupies today in the eyes
Of the great nations of the globe, a who'll
ly different place from that which II held
four months ago. Continental Europe
clung TO the belief that the American
people were a collection of traders and
money-grabbers. who wOrshipped the al
mighty dollar and lacked the ability TO
carry on vigorous war outlde their own
territories. Dewey, at Manila; Schley,
at Santiago, and the superb daring Of
Skaters troops in front of the enemy's
intrenchments have relegated that belief
to the limbo OF dead superstitions. The
accuracy Of American gunners, the skill
OF American seamanship and the grim
tenacity OF American soldiers have con-
quered respect that is as wide as the
boundaries OF civilization. Henceforth
the words of the official representatives
OF the United States at foreign capitals
will carry a weight which they have not
hitherto possessed.

military band in Berlin, the Boston
symphony at its best. Seidls finest
work, anything in the world. With
never a note in front of them, they
played what you liked, any part of
any opera. the grandest music ever
written, or a simple Strauss waltz or
folksong. And the bass drummer
was the leader. You will never hear a
bess drum really played until you hear
that Filipino do it, He makes bass
drum talk, cry. sing, shout. 1t fits the
mood and movement of the music. IL
is subordinate or dominant, soft, sub
dued, or loud and roaring; 1t laughs
and chuckles like thing alive; 1t
raves and protests like an angry SOL
der, and all in perfect harmony and
sympathy with the rest. The ambi-
ton of the average bass drummer is
to develop the muscles in his arms.
He pounds the uncomplaining drum
as If he were swinging clubs for ex-
ercise. But with this Filipino 1t is
science and an art. and he is master
of both.
1t is a curiously organized band
one bass drum, two snares, a Tyre,
five tubas, eleven saxophones, big and
little, eleven clarinets. eight cornets,
one ballad horn, and four altos and
tenors. They played songs from
Faust" and / sat in the Metropolitan
Opera House and heard and saw the
vast audience get to its feet with fran
tic cheers when Calve and the two de-
Reszkes finished the prayer song. They
played, but no telling describes what
they played. Come out when we take
s-,t he i,yht
the Lunetta and hear them play for
yourself The 10000 miles you have
come from New York will drift into
nothing. and you will hear only the
music and be glad you are alive.

"Ihe Girl I Left Behind Me.n

What is universally quoted as the
strongest American play ever written,
"The Girl Left Behind Me-" is the OPEN
Mg atraction at the Academy of Music
for thIeo lights beginning August 20,
Monday night, with usual matinees. This
famous drama is one of the most exciting
and thrilling that has ever been played
upon the stage and exercises a fascina-
ton over all who see it that Is mary ell
lous So skillfully have the authors, Da-
vid Belasco and Franklin Fyles, con-
structed their play that the auditor is
never allowed to lose interest from begin
ming to end and firmly believes that he
is watching the actual exciting events of
the story instead of being present at
theatrical performaT ce. The Girl l Left
Behind Me" will be interpreted by a com
pany OF competent and excellent artists
while the scenic display will be accurate
and gorgeous.

A SELFISH CRAZE.
Woman's Devotion to Her Dog Can
so be Called.
From the Philadelphia Times.

From the Philadelphia Times.
Among selfish crazes, the pet dog
craze stands pre-eminent. 1t is not
that affection and care for animals
which is one of the traits in human
nature, but the alteration which makes
everyone else suffer, puts children,
friends, acquaintances, husband, all in
the background of Indifference. To
such an extent is this mania some
times carried, that the ordinary rules
of politeness are ignored-rules which
in good society have often prior claim
to the rights of relationship.
For example, there was one lady who
used always to keep husband, friends,
and all, waiting for breakfast till she
had given her pet pug the kidneys and
cream provided for it's morning meal,
and no one was allowed to occupy
certain part of the hearth rug, as that
would disturb his dogship; neither
could more than three go for a drive
in the carriage, as that would be mon
opolizing the pug's seat. When this
dog died his owner had an in me-
moriam bracelet made Of black enamel
with his name set in diamonds. An
other lady had five pugs whom she
used to lead by five silver chains at
tached to her waist belt.

CLIMATE OF PHILIPPINES.
Although Tropical it is Healthy
Even in Summer.
From Scribner's.

FROM ScrlbnerS.
In regard to the climate which for
eigner encounters, il is easy to eXag-
gerate it's discomforts; although it is
tropical still even in summer the cli-
mate may be called healthy. From
December to March there are warm
days, with cool nights and little rain.
During March, April and May the days
are hot, dry and dusty, while the ther-
mometer rises to SO degrees at noon;
but the nights are not uncomfortable.
In the latter part of May and of June
there are thunder storms every after
noon with a tremendous downpour of
rain.
The greatest heat occurs in these
months, the thermometer rising fire.
quently to los degrees in the shade.
July, August and September are the
months of the great typhoons. and
while Manila escapes the greatest fury
of these. still enough of their force re-
mains to demolish many houses. Dur
ing October and November storms les
sen in frequency and severity, and the
weather gradually settles into the fine
days of December.

Washington, Aug. 24.-From a mem
Der of the cabinet comes the statement
today that Senator Frye has been add
ed to the peace commission and that
one vacancy remains. For that there
is talk Of Justice White, of Louisiana,
yet in the past few days considerable
pressure has been brought to bear in
favor of Judge Grosscup, of Chicago,
who delivered an address at the Sara
toga conference Friday urging the re-
tention of the Philippines.
Judge Grosscup is a close personal
friend of President Mckinley, and has
been one of his political advisers. His
counsel has had weight at the White
House on more than one occasion, and
it is intimated in administration circles
that the president was aware of the
character of his Saratoga address in
advance OF its delivery. and that he in
terposed no objections to it.
URGED BY WESTERN MEN.
Leading Western men have urged
the president to put Judge Grosscup
on the commission on the plea that
the advocates of expansion should
have vigorous representation. AS now
thought to be constituted, the commits
sion has a substantial majority in
favor of expansion.
Secretary Day is the only member
who is opposed on principle to retain
ing more than a coaling station. Sen
ator Davis favors retaining the entire
group. Senator Frye. while not so
strong an eXpansionist as Senator
Davis, is favorable to a policy which
shall involve at least the bringing of
the entire group under American pro-
lection.
General Tracy, II he becomes men,
Der of the commission, may be counted
on to assume as aggressive a position
as eX-President Harrison would have
assumed.
There is reason to believe that the
administration has no idea of aban-
doning any part of the island of LuZon.
The problem before it is to secure the
permanent peace of the rest of the
group without accepting the RESPONSE
bilities of permanent possession. In
other words, the president aims to have
the largest commercial advantages
with the smallest possible extension
of territory.
