Brooklyn Transit, Sugar and most of the
railway shares were semi-staGnant all
day and most of them closed at small

for the day of only small fraction. The
great combination OF lrun and steel COM

which caused activity and strength in a
number OF stocks. Those already known
to be in the combination showed
strength all day and the common and
preferred stocks OF the American steel

to be included in the consolidation.
Possibly the large buying and sharp

Garcin Itellevod from Command.

NEW YORK, August STA dispatch
to the Herald from Santiago says: Cen
eral Garcia has been relieved OF his
command by General Gomez, acting I'M
der instruction from the provisional
government.
This is owing to disapproyal Of his ac-
ton during the shafter incident, and in
view that Garcia is persona non grata
to the American government. At the
commencement OF the war the Cuban
officers were ordered to put themselves
under orders of the American COM
mander and the letter from Garcia to
Shafter is looked upon as a breach OF
discipline. His resignation Is not &C.
cepted, but he is relieved OF his COM
mand. General Rodriguez, commanding

Poncs Note-Inportant TO This Country.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. August 81
United states Ambassador Htchcock.at
st. Petersburg. has cabled the state
department that he has been handed By
the Russian minister for foreign affairs,
Count Muravien, copy of the identical
note addressed BY order Of the czar to
all of the representatives in st. Peters
burg Of foreign governments, proposing
a joint conference to consider the ques-
ton Of general disarmament. The full
text of the note was not cabled by Mr..
Hitchcock, but will be sent forward by
mail. Its character is such as would
require something more than mere
acknowledgement Of receipt, and as the
proposition is one, the acceptance OF
which would involve a radical change
in the foreign policy Of the United
States, It is sure to receive most ear
nest attention and consideration at the
hands OF the President and Mr.. Hay
when the latter assumes office.
