THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review,

New York, Sept 2S.-lrfuences affect
ing individual properties furnished the
motive for. today's irregular price move
ment. The bears, flushed with their re-
cent successes, attempted to make 1t IN
terosting for their opponents at the out
set and effected break in Tobacco ana
Sugar. The latter went down on the an
nounCement of Il reduction in grades or
the product but heavy supporting orders
turned the current and forced heavy
covering. Subsequent fluctuations wee
very crratic in sympathy with the
changes elsewhere, but the stock re-
bounded strongly and ended at the top.
The futile efforts of the shorts to iniict
damage on the railway list caused the
traders to range on the long side for
turn and hullish sentiment became more
marked Later developments seemed to
favor II belief that the bears were playing
possum and content to wait until the
market reached "a higher level IN order
to make the losse more acute. Final deal
ings were very feverish but last prices
ruled above the lowest with the declines
exceeding "a point mainly in the indus
trials. Total sales were dl1iD shares.

Wanammker Turned bricks.

The early days of John Wanamaker
We're not easy, by any means. When
lad of only five years he made bricks,
or, rather, assisted in making, for his
business was to turn them in the sun
until they We're evenly baked. For this
labor he received two cents day, and
sometimes cleared ten cents week;
but 1t must be remembered that there
were many rainy days when the force
of youthful "workmen" had to be laid
off. Johns first real rise to fortune was
in the days when, as Office boy, he
saved money enough to start in busi-
ness for himself. He worked as assist
ant in the Office until he had climbed up
to SO a week, and then, seeing that he
could get no more, he bought little
stock of cheap furniture and started in

SPEAKING OF PEACE.

n Lot OF Rumors Ahoat Apparently with
out Foundation.
New York, July 20.--A London dis
patch to the Journal says: Sir Henry
Drummond Wolff. the British ambas-
sador at Madrid. has been fully in
formed of the terms upon which the
United States government is ready to
make peace.
London. July 20.-A dispatch from
Washington received at the United
States embassy here. but not from an
American source, says the British am
bassador. Sir Julian Pauncefote, is ac-
tive in the peace negotiations. Ii Is
also admitted that several of the pow
ers are urging Spain to ask for peace.
the main reason being the fear that
Commodore Watson's appearance Will
lead to complications.
Washington. July 20.-The statement
from Madrid that Sir Drummond Wolff.
the British ambassador there, has been
informed of the peace terms is In line
with a similar statement made about
two weeks ago, when the British am
bassador here, Sir Julian Pauncefote,
was about to leave for Pequot. Conn. At
that time Sir Julian stated that IL any
negotiations had proceeded from Sir
Drummond Wolff. they had not been
known to him. and that, moreover. he.
Sir Julian. had not discussed the sub
1ect OF peace WITH any plilCldi VI lHt
United States government. Since then
the ambassador has been absent and the
embassy itself, with the entire staff. is
established for the summer at Pequot.
The French ambassador, NJ. Cambon,
is back from a 10 days visit TO New
London Conn, where he was enjoying a
summer outing. while dispatches from
Madrid and Washington represented
him as conducting important peace ne
