New York, May ls.-The bull campaign
inaugurated yesterday on the stock ex-
change promised well during the early
part of to-day. but before the close the
advantage gained earlier has all been lost
and prices as q rule were lower than last
night. not only In the speciaIties' whose
weakness stopped the advance. but in the
standard stocks and those which had lost
the advance as well.
At the opening the bull contingent had
to face a series of declines for Americans
In London, but the tendency OF the Lon
don market after its opening was upward
and the declines there were ignoreu'
prices here opening higher all along the
line. There was q fair volume of orders to
buy which had come to commission
houses over night as a result OF the
strength displayed yesterday and there
was no selling for London account 10 any
amount.
The early advance was continued with
| yigor and confidence, led by Peoples Gas
and Rock Island. which gained about ia
Der cent. each. The unsettled tone OF To-
bacco and the large volume OF transac-
lions in II gave the first check to the al
vance.
When very heavy offerings OF sugar
! were Joined to those of Tobacco the bull
| campaign received an efectual check Tor
the day and was not renewed. Inere was
a conspicuous movement of Rubber pre-
| ferred on the strength Of the good state
ment of the ~company's business made at
| Yesterdays annual meeting. The price
, rose at one time SIS per cent. The weak
ness In Sugar and Tobacco became more
pronounced as the day progressed. the ex-
| IRENE decline I'm both stocks reaching to
within a small fraction Of four points.
| This proved to be a heavy burden for the
market to carry and prices fell away on
a very dull market until near the close,
when there was some realizing.
The stringent measures adopted by the
government to stop the publication OF
news of naval operations has proved EN-
cacious and seemed to ne en-
tirely lacking in Wall street to-day. This
tended to beget some feeling OF nervous
ness and doubt which helped on the reac-
ton. The money market was not quotaply
lower to-day.
Bonds were dull all day and prices
moved very narrowly, but were well held
in the late reaction In the stock market.

MANY COMPLAINTS.

A Heavy Fins for MaTring \ Improve
msnts on Fourth Avenue North.
Great Falls, May 1S.-As the result OF
numerous complaints from the residents
along Fourth avenue north. the city
council now has in course OF passage an
ordinance inficting a heavy fine upon
any one convicted of marring the beau
ty of public improvements. Since the
boulevarding of Fourth avenue north
it has been found that there are many
persons who would carelessly or wan
tonly destroy all the beauty OF that
street, its grass plats and trees. The
usual complaint Is directed against
teamsters, deliverymen and others who
deliberately drive v e the coping and
across the grass and leave their horses
to nibble and bark the young trees. Nu-
nervous warnings have been issued. but
the patience of the city officials Is ex-
hausted, and one Of the men engaged
in the care has been deputized as a
special officer, with Instructions to ar
rest the first person he finds destroying
the value Of the work that has been
done on the avenue. And the FIRST one
caught will be made such an example
that all others will have no desire to
taste his experience.

. Mr.. John Peterson, of Patoutville, La,
was very agreeably surprised not long
ago. For eighteen months he had been
troubled with dysentry and had tried
three Of n best doctors in New Or
leans. besides half a dozen or more pat
ent medicines, but received very little
relief. Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy, having been
recommended to him, he gave 1t a trial
and to his great surprise, three doses of
that remedy effected a permanent cure.
Mr.. william Mcnamara, a well-known
merchant of the same place, Is well ac-
quainted with Mr.. Peterson n attests
to the truth Of this statement. This
remedy is for sale by druggists.

HIS SKULL WAS CRACKED
Result Of the Autopsy on the
Body Of William Booth.
WAS IN A ROW AT BARKER
Judd Asserts That He Was Obliged to
Tap Booth on the Head Several
Times With q Pickhandle
in Self Defense.

Great Falls. May 1s.-Nothing has
been heard from the deputy sheriff at
Neihart who was wired last night to
proceed to Barker and arrest Norman
Judd for the murder of william Booth.
1t Is thought. however, that the officer
probably has him under arrest by
this time and will bring him to this
city tomorrow.
Little il known Of the trouble which
most likely was the cause of Booths
death, but 1t is known hat both men
were employed by Jack Parr in hauling
ore at Barker. A week & Judd's
team became stuck in the mud and his
wagon blocked the road. Booth came
up behind and the men, who were evil
IDENTIFY not the best of friends, INDUCED
in some angry talk yer the matter.
Judd say that Booth climbed up on
his (Judd's) wagon with a knife, and
that he was obliged to beat him on
with the handle of a pick. When Booth
came to he found that he had lost the
use Of his vocal organs and 1t was in
this condition that he fingered around
a Barker saloon until his friends be-
came alarmed and sent him to this
city for medical attendance. He ar
rived here about 4 o'clock yesterday
afternoon, and proceeding to the office
Of DR.. j. H. Fairfield, the county ply
stefan, he made his wants known in
writing. The physician on examina-
ton found only a slight scalp wound
back of the forehead. which he dressed.
At the same time the mans eyes and
face were discolored and looked as If
blood had settled there n he also had
the peculiar symptom alluded to. ina
bility to speak. He was accordingly
three times and at the M Of the third
advised to go to the hospital. He went
there and in the evening was seized
with commissions which attacked him
he died.
The autopsy concluded this evening
by DIR. c. A.. Brady, the coroner. dis
covered the fact that the skull had
been cracked in several places and
three ounces of clotted blood were
found on the left side of h cranial
cavity. Under such circumstances 1t
showed wonderful vitality in the man
that he survived the injuries for a
week. All other organs were found In
an unusually healthy condition, only
the brain being in bad shape. The cor
oner, If possible, will go to Barker on
Friday for the purpose of holding an
inquest and obtaining testimony. The
self-defense story told by Judd will be
thoroughly investigated.
