NEW YORK, Jan. 2o.-slight losses re-

market, which was irregular and depressed
on the resumption Of Cuban and currency ag-
itation at Washington, giving courage to
certain bear interests. Recent professional
manipulation of stocks is credited to people
interested In making a market for bonds ac-
quired during the reorganization. Western
trade advices continued good and further re-
fected favorable traffic returns which were
published today by prominent railroad lines.
The market had hardly recovered from its
early hesitancy when liquidation and short
sales were apparent with resultant sharp de-
clines. Toward the close there was a some

London bought a little on balance. Pullman,
Mobile & Ohio and National Lead reflected

critics. Oregon Improvement advanced IA on
an intimation of possible changes in that
companys relations with other properties in
the Northwest. Great activity and strength
of North American in the final hour was
based on rumors Of possible reconstruction
of the company's business. New Jersey Cen
trail and Lackawanna declined ~ and per

count The money market continued to dis
play extreme ease, round amounts being
offered on call at per cent. This condition
of affairs was regarded by some of the lead

gold imports, which in a measure would be

JAPANESE CRUISER
successfully Launched at Cramps
Shipyard Yesterday

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 2O-The
unromantic aspect of Cramps ship
yard was turned to prettiness today
when the Japanese cruiser Kasagf was
launched, The Oriental spirit pervaded
the event. When the breathless mo-
ment came and the huge ship began
to glide down to her first bath six
bow, and, circling about, scattered
flowers on the deck 1t was a very
pretty piece of mechanism, and it was
not at all incongruous that the chief
actor Of the allegory should be a
charming American girl-NIiss Helen
Long-daughter Of the secretary of the
navy. Miss Long was to have merely
drawn the cord which released the
doves and their floral burdens, but at
the supreme moment the cord slipped
from her hand and a workman of the
yard Instantly caught it and performed
the office. This was observed only by
those in immediate proximity to the
vessel, and the beauty Of this unique
launch was in no way marred.
The Japanese minister, Toru Hoshi,
headed the delegation from the Mika-
dos court, and apart from those at
tached to his staff in Washington
there were japanese from New York
and Chicago. The American party
from the capital was large and nota-
bic, including many state officials and
their ladies.
The batteries on the Kasagi are
heavier than those on either the
United States cruisers Minneapolis or
Columbia. There are two eight-inch
rifles at the sides. and her armament
besides will consist of ten Al
inch quick-fring rifles, a second
airy battery of twelve twelve-pound
oGick-firing guns, and SIX one-half-inch
Hotchkiss guns. There are two steel
masts on the Kasagi. These will be
provided with fighting tops, in which
rapidfire guns will be placed.
The contract for the Kasagi was
signed with representative of the Jap
anese government on Dec. 81, 1895, and
her building was carefully watched by
Commander Katsuro Martha, naval at
tache of the mikado's legation at
Washington. Ever since Japan had a
navy the custom of liberatfng doves
has been in vogue, and the release of
the two doves was to symbolic the
happy fruition of a great endeavor ac-
colnplished through the intercession of
white winged peace

ish military commander at Rincon, this
