Financial.


 New York, Aug. 22-The Evening Posts London financial cablegram says
 The stock markets here opened good to- day after Saturdays holiday, the feature being a resumption of the boom in Ameri- cans initiated by New York. The support of Americans is still small and mainly pro- fessional, but the continent buys and Berlin continues to support Northern Pacific com- mon.
 It is generally urged here that the boom in Americans is being started at the wrong moment; that is to say the public is apa- thetic and away of summer holidays and that on their return they will find prices too high for them. The reverse, however, is aIite as likely, as the English public in- variably join in a speculation at the last moment and when prices are top heavy. After a temporary relapse, prices for Americans closed booming in the street, St. Paul leading.
 Dry Goods.
 New York, Aug. 22.-In the dry goods there is a fair degree of trading of the same general character as that of last wek The demand is quiet one, but there are some fair sized orders registered in tn midst of a great many small ones. The mail brings most of these orders as store trading is still along conservative lines In Woolen and orsted goods there is little movement of consequence. Staple cottons are in indifferent demand. A suc- cession of small orders has orked some grades into better condition, but there is still a lack of heavy trading of sort which makes an appreciable difference in the market. The print cloth situation is more satisfactory. Extras are slightly stronger at cents and odd goods are held very firmly. There is no change in the position of printed goods. Woven colored fabrics still hold a good position.

Fred Kaufman's place in Bakery Lane
was pulled last Saturday and resulted in
the capture of a bottles of lager and
about four gallons of firewater. Kauf-
man, alias "California Jack" had been
warned and was odt of town at the time.
Some misguided friend of his sent him
word that if he returned on Sunday he
couldn't be arrested. The friend "knew
a lot of things that amt So" When
"California Jack" came to town Sunday
he was promptly taken by Officers
Jackson and Seeley and placed behind
the lattice. At his hearing Monday he
pleaded guilty and secured a fine of
about $50 with costs. Not being able
to pay the fine, he will probably be
taken to Rutland, where his services in
the workhouse will be computed at 33 l-3
cents a day until his debt to the state is
wiped out. Sic semper rumsellls-or at

Prohibitory Law in Chittenden.

The grand jury of Chittenden county
made its report to the county court last
week, and the following was incorpo-
rated: 1--WE have made some inquiry rel
alive to the prohibitory law. We find
the feeling among men friendly to the
law, that it is not properly enforced, that
the officers of the law use it for their
own emolument chiefly, that it is not
checked or crushed, that the same old
places still flourish. In this there is
some error, but much truth. We find
that the officers upon whom the law
places its enforcement, the states attor-
ney and grand jurors of the towns. fail to
take the initiative in any case and claim
that 1t is not their duty, that outsiders
must first make a complaint before they
act. We think this is an error. AS tC
the costs and fines we find they are &C.
cording to the law. We are convinced
that arrestlng officers and magistrates
have been too lax in allowing persons
not in interest to come in and represent
the guilty parties and take their sen
fences. We recommend that persistent
and old offenders he sent to the work.

A Circus-Time burglary.

The usual number of scallawags who
follow a circus about appear to have
been with the Main shows. Probably
most citizens of the village took extra
precautions against the gentry. But in
spite of barred and suffered windows at
Pine Hall, entrance was made thereto
Tuesday night, the scamps evidently be-
ing experts. A pane of glass was broken
at one of the windows about the middle
of the south side of the building, half
concealed from the street by shrubbery.
The window bar was removed, and then
the inside shutter, held by heavy strip
of wood and iron cleats on the inside,
was pushed in, the screws holding one of
the cleats being dragged out. The till
was opened, one slide bar being broken
oft, and about $40 in pennies, nickels and
dimes was taken. The showcase con-
tanning jewelry was visited, and here the
burglar or burglars showed their nicely
of taste and discrimination of quality by
selecting four or five of the finest watch.
chains and several cards of sleeve-but-
tons, the remaining contents of the
showcase being left undisturbed. a
circus hanger-On was arrested Wednes-
day morning and lot of dimes found
on his person, but he was discharged
for lack of proof.

Civil War Volunteers Form an Organiza-
tiOn-Their History.
The veterans of Companies and f of
the Fifth Vermont volunteers, war of
IS6l-G5, to the number of about thirty
met at G. A. r. hall in this village on the
10th inst, the thirty-seventh anniversary
of their muster into the United States
service, and proceeded to have as good a
time as the shortness of the call would
admit. A business meeting was held in
the forenoon, James Sneden, president,
in the chair, at which James Sneden of
Waltham was elected president, G.. f.
Goutt of Middlebury, secretary and treas.
urer; A. English of East Middlebury
and j. S. Chandler of Ripton, vice-presi-
dents. A committee of arrangements and
one on permanent organization was APP
pointed. E. p Russell, NJ. D., of Mid
dlebury, of Company E, 9TH Vermont,
was elected an honorary member. Then
an adjournment was had for dinner, after
which a constitution and bylaws were
adopted and those present INDUCED in
speeches, "reminiscences and yarns gener-
ally. AS whole the affair was success,
though the attendance should have been
larger.
The regiment Of which these compan-
les were a part was mustered into the
United States service at st. Adams, VT,
Sept. 16, 1861, with 9S6 officers and men.
Dec. l6, 1868, large majority of the
surviving veterans re-enlisted for three
years more at Brandy Station, Va, in the
storm and mud and were mustered out
June 20, 1875. From first to last 1918
officers and men belonged to the regi-
ment, of whom POI were killed in action
or died from wounds received, 13S died
of disease or by accident and AS were
wounded. The regiment was in twenty
five engagements, some of them lasting
twelve days, in one of which 1SS out of
400 were killed or wounded in less than
30 minutes. During their term of service
the two companies had 300 officers and
men, of whom company b lost 10 in
killed and 10 wounded, and company F,
10 killed and 3G wounded, while % died
of disease, accidents, guerrlllas or while
prisoners of war-a death roll of 81 and
