STOCKS AND y

New York, June 4.-There was no
trace left to-day Of the re-actionary ten
dency manifest i'll the stock market late
yesterday. The change might be ac-
counted for in two ways. First, the
adoption by the Senate of the section Of
the revenue bill, authorizing an issue Of
bonds ana treasury certificates may have
relieved the expressed apprehension for
the care of the governments finances.
Second, the professional spectators who
sold stocks and took their profits early
in the week and were anxious to get back
at low prices, may have been satisfied
with the extent of yesterdays reaction.
and glad to buy bach stocks ut the lower
level. The second explanation is more
likely to be true. 1t was evident be
fore the opening Of the market to-day
that it would be difficult to effect
don had advanced Americans a large
fraction all around.
When the bank statement first appear
ed there was some pressure to sell by
traders, who make it Il rule to always
sell stocks when the banks surplus re
serves show a decrease. But Il better
analysis of the situation soon led to re
neWed buying. The closing was active
and strong near top prices, net gains il
the case of most active stocks, ranging
between l and , points and in cXcep
tional cases above that.
The final blockading of Admiral Cerve
ra in Santiago harbor has given strength
to the stock market all the week.
Bonds have distinctly shown the broad
ening pressure of idle money. Seekin.

FIVE DROWNED
MANY MISSING
The Fraser River Disaster Worse Than
First Reported Entire Fleet of
Fishing Boats Caught in Storm
and Demolished.

VANCOUVER. B. c., July 23.--The dis
aster to the salmon fishers at the mouth
of the Fraser river, caused by the recent
storms, appears to have been worse than
at first reported.
The whole fleet was out at the time.
Many of the boats were strung together,
and when the storm-cloud burst they
were dashed against each other with
such force as to either demolish them
outright or render them useless.
Five of the men were seen to sink out
of sight. 1t was at first thought this
was the extent of the fatalities, but
when the men reported twenty five
were found to be missing. These in
clude Chinese, japanese, Indians and
whites. They may yet be heard from,
but it is more than likely that they
have been lost.

NEGOTIATIONS
STILL UNDECIDED
Sagasta Said to Be Secretly Negotiating
as Far as He Dares = Contest
Movement Gaining Strength.

LoNDoN, July 23.-The question of
peace or war still hangs on international
conditions of Spain. From the most
trustworthy source it has been learned
cabinet have been secretly trying to ar
range peace terms with the United
States. Sagasta will go as far as he
dares in the face of the masses. 1t is
evident on every hand that the prepara-
tions are Fastening to hand over the
negotiations to military or com bina-
tion ministry as soon as they shall have
taken definite shape. 1t is certain that
the Carlist movement is gaining
strength and that the government sim
cerely desires peace.

LEO'S
CRITICAL CONDITION
His Sun May Soon Set-A Number of
Conferences Held-Cardinal Par
rOchi May Be the Next Pope.

New York. July .2S.-The health of
Pope Leo continues to excite apprehen-
sion throughout the Catholic world.
The prevailing opinion among the
members of the college at Rome is that
Pope Lees sun is near its setting. and
he knows his night is not far off.
The Cardinals have held number of
conferences within the last ten days.
Parrochi, Nicar of the Holiness, presided,
and the question of his successorship
has Ueen discussed. Psrrochi is thought
to have good chance to succeed to the
chair of st. Peter. Leo is thought to
favor Rsmpollo, the papal secretary of
state. No American church dignitary
is even mentioned in the matter of sue
censorship, and an Italian is sure to be
the next pope.

WILL ATTEMPT TO
VOID THE CONTRACT
Trouble May Result if the Spanish
Steamship Company is Given the
Contract for Carrying Troops.

New York, July 23.-The World says i:
A lawyer has been retained by the
steamship companies who were bidders
for the Transporting of the $4,000 cap
tured Spanish prisoners from Santiago
to Spain, who will begin action today to
have the contract made with Compania
Transatlantic Espanola set aside. The
ground taken is that the successful bid
der is licensed corporation of a nation
with which we are at war, and that ac-
cording to a measure passed by the
Spanish cortes one-half of the receipts
of every corporation doing business un-
der the Spanish government must be
surrendered to the government to help
defray the expenses of the war.
By letting the contract to a Spanish
CORPORATION the government indirectly
pays into the Spanish treasury cum
equal to one-half the stipulation.

ANOTHER SCANDAL
IN HIGH LIFE
A Descendant of One of California's
Oldest Families Kills His Cousin
Through Jealousy.

POMONA, Calf, July 23.-James Mar
tinez, descendent of one of the Oldest
families that we're famous in the early
history of Southern California, shot his
cousin, Jose Martinez, dead early this
morning for criminal intimacy with the
slayer's beautiful wife.
James Martinez caught the guilty pair
once before, but he spared his Cousins
life and forgave his wife on Jose's prom
ise to leave the state forever. James
came home unexpectedly at two O'Clock
this morning and the tragedy followed.
The family is one of the wealthiest and
proudest in this section.

RIFLES
FOR VOLUNTEERS
Members of the Porto Rican Expedition
Will be Armed With the Krag-
JOrgensen Gun as Fast as Possible.

New YORK, July pa special from
Washington to the Times says:
At least 10000 of the volunteers who
go to Porto Rico are to be supplied with
the Krag- Jorgensen magazine rife, used
by the regular army. This announce
ment, made by the ordnance depart
ment, came as a surprise, the under
standing having been that the supply of
the improved guns would not permit of
their being served out to the volunteers
for some months to come. The ord
nance department was content to let
that impression pervail, 30 long as it
was not prepared to controvert it with
the arms themselves, but it has been
straining every energy to accumulate a
stock of the rifles in order to begin their
issue generally as soon as possible.

FEVER AND SCURVY
AT DAWSON
Steamer GarrOnne Arrives With Almost
Two Million Dollars = Dawson
Crowded With Idle Men.

VICTORIA, B. c.. July 23.-The steamer
Garronne, which arrived today from St.
Michaels, brought 166 miners, million
and half in dust and nuggets, and
probably enough in drafts to raise the
total to over two million dollars.
The latest news from Dawson is that
fever and scurvy prevail to a serious
extent.
Twenty thousand idle men crowd
Dawson without work until winter
comes again and opens the mines once
more.
Canadian royalty bids fair to ruin the
kings of Klondike who have invested
heavily in properties that it will not
pay to work because of the heavy roy
atty tax.
