Philadelphia, Pa, oct. 26.-Philadel-
phians are jubilee-mad and soldier
mad. The Third brigade arrived here
in three sections at o'clock this ev-
ening after having reached the city
limits soon after p. IN. Delays were
interminable and annoying.
The first section consisted Of the bri-
gahe commander, staff and orderlies
and six companies OF the Eighth and
staff; the Second Of the remaining
four companies of the Eighth, the
Thrteenth's staff and the First bat
talon under Major Wood, and the
third section of the Second battalion
of the Thirteenth under Major Fellows
nesota- 1t rained heavily this morn
ing when the troops were leaving camp
and the men had hard time in maxi
ing the march to the depot.
The transportation facilities afford
ed by the Pennsylvania railroad were
little less than execrable, on arriving
at the sidings in the morning and
after having waded already three miles
through heavy, muddy roads, and un-
der a drenching rain, the men had to
stand the test for over an hour more,
waiting for a train. The cars were
without heat and in many cases with
out light, though it was dark at five
o'clock and the trip was not completed
till a quarter after eight.
The boys were disguested and to add
to this feeling they are quartered in
a sugar refinery on South street, next
to Gloucester ferry. The whole bri-
gade is there and the men do not like
their surroundings, They are right on
the Delaware river, too far removed
from the central city and in q poor
location.
They We're well received on reaching
their destination. The people gener-
ously provided coffee and some bread.
which were acceptable, as the boys
were cold and had not eaten anything
since morning. BY some mistake the
Second battalion arrived before the
First, and 4Iajor Fellows thoughtfully
allowed the boys to go out and get
warm meal, to report for roll call at
twelve o'clock tonight. The trip was
uneventful, but was made in safety,
and all the members of the Thirteenth
are well. Richard j, Bourke

this week. A cosmopolitan exhibit
shown together and each content in the
association of the others for none but

past when she alone carries them into
effect. Evidences here that New York
copies her to an extent but rivals her
even more.
A hundred silk waists here: some OF
our own importing, some from New
York, and among these latter some
with touches of our own originality in
their ensembled sweetness.
A decidedly "chic" waist for s49S:
the other extreme is $4,000, with plenty
of medium beauty prices between these
limits.

much beauty trained taste and adroit
hands can produce for how little.

GETTING AWAY FROM CAMP.

Camp Meade Middletown, Pa, Oct.
26.-It required eighteen trains with
twelve cars to the train to take the
troops from Camp Meade to Philadel-
phia and the movement commenced
this morning early. General Graham.
with Generals Young and Davis and
their staffs, We're in the first train
with detachments of the engineer and
signal corps. The men marched from
their various comps in heavy march
ing order with blanket, poncho, haver-
sack and canteen, and in the rain they
did not seem to be very happy over
the prospect. Surgeon General Girard
has assurances that the boys will be
cared for in the Quaker City.
Thirty-siX men suffering from feyers
were removed from the Rcd Cross and
division hospitals to Lancaster and
Reading today, where they will be
cared for in city hospitals.
Up to the present there have been
no orders received to muster out the
Fourteenth and Fifteenth Pennsylvan-
la regiments, and there is doubt at
headquarters whether such orders will
be received very soon. While at camp
yesterday Governor Bushnell hinted
that efforts will be made to have the
Tenth Ohio mustered out as about
half of the men want TO go home.
The four Pennsylvania regiments and
the battalions from regiments from
other states at Camp Meade were all
safely on their way to the Philadel-
phia peace jubilee by three o'clock
this afternoon. They were in the cars
shortly after noon and stood for somo
time. Assistant Superintendent Aber-
cromble said that the delay along the
line would be trifiing and he expected
that all of the trains would be in
Philadelphia by eleven o'clock tonight

New York, Jan. 10.
Financitl Outlook.-Not only is the
market displaying strength and activity,
but the developments from day to day
create an impression of more or less per-
manently bullish tendencies for some
time to come. The most healthy sign is
the remarkable demand for bonds and
the exceptionally large dealings and adj
Yances in all classes of such securities.
The stock market has also attained a
breadth which enables it TO resist ad-
verse developments. The effort to create
a Cuban war scare over the riot In Ha-
yana last Thursday was probably as
good test of the inherent strength of
speculation as could be desired. A short
time ago such an occurrence would have
caused a serious break. This week the
halt in the bull market on this account
was only momentary. While the ca
pacity Of Congress for disturbing and
mischievous action, both in connection
with our foreign relations or the Ma
tiOnal finances, must not be disregarded;
the disposition at present is to pay little
attention to developments at Washing
ton.
Favorable earnings and increased abil-
ity on the part of railroad corporations
to pay dividends, together with the album
dance Of capital for investment, con-
tinue to be supports of the speculative
situation. 1t is also realized that the
winter wheat acreage at the West is
largely increased, and that the beginning
of the coming crop year wears q favor
able appearance. A circumstance, more
over, which is rapidly assuming pros !
pectlve Importance is the KlOndike eX-
cltement, which gives every promise OF
attaining large proportions in the spring.
The direct effects of the movement upon
the Pacific railroads is already being
discounted by the advances in Northern (
Pacific and Union Pacific securities. It'll
is worth considering that, should the |
mining boom pan Glt, even partially, in I
accordance with Gnticipations, the i'm
petus it can gi7e 10 general business
and to the railroads would be Of great
benefit.
The strength Of the Vanderbilt stocks

There are rumors in this connection Of
possible consultations, and although
there is little apparent foundation for
such expectations, the Lake Shore and
New York Central refunding plans JUS
titles expectations of increased dividends,

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York, Jan. 1J.-The stock mar
ket was subjected to a rather drastic IL
quotation of speculative holdings to-day
in continuation Of the movement OF yes
terday. The selling was due to feellns
that it was safer to take profits at tie
present level than to retain holdings over
Sunday. The situation at Havana was
the motive Of the selling. There Is no
assurance felt that there may not De a
sudden development of dangerous SIT
uation there which would necessltaIe I'M
mediate measures by the United States
Naval forces to protect the interests OF
American citizens resident IN havana.
Fears Of this scare were somewhat ag-
greyated by the persistent selling OF
houses with Washington connexions.

the stock market put an end to a period
of strength and activity earlier in the

promise Of the usually expected January
boom in prices Only those stocks which
scored extreme advances early in the
week have anything left to show for it,
the general level of the market being de-

The special points of vantage on whlcA
the strength of the market held early in

Washington, Jan. 15.-The President
has extended a complete pardon to Clyde
Mattox, who is now serving a life sen
tence in the Kansas State penitsntiarg

sentence to imprisonment for life.
