New York, Aug. 29.-Prices of stocks
broke sharply to-day and showed depres-
sion throughout. The first rally showed
considerable vigor, but later in the day
recuperative power of the market became
feebler and the close was barely steady,
at slightly above the lowest. Net losses
ranged from l to over per cent. in al
most all leading stocks. There was a
growing disposition to realize profits to-
day by professional traders and by out
side holders. The latter was shown by
the steady stream of selling orders that
came from the commission houses all day.
Professional traders quite generally took
the side of the market and bears sold
with growing confidence, the demand to
cover at the close being very light, even
with the substantial reduction of prices.
There is evident a large growth of the
powerful trading element which has light
ened its holding of stocks and Is anxious
for lower prices to buy back again. Buy
ing for London account was distinctive
factor in the firmnesS in a number of
International favorites, notably Southern
preferred, Erie first preferred, Denver pre-
ferred and Norfolk and Western prefer
red. There was a steady absorption OF
stocks at the decline, which was espec-
tally marked in Burlington and St. Paul.
This seemed to be the result of buying
orders below the level of the market for
traders account as well as from commits
sion houses. The tendency to sell was
undoubtedly due to the prospects of tight
money. The minimum rate for call loans
was held at ? per cent. and per cent
was paid in some cases.
In sympathy with the money market
and with the increasing supply of grain
and cotton bills actual rates for sterling
exchange declined Ac in the pound. The
London money market was marked Up a
sharp fraction to-day and there was buy
ing of gold in the open market there,
said to be for shipment to New York.
| No engagement was announced, however,
| in Wall street. Other departments of the
money market showed a hardening ten
| dency, but there was no change in the
| sterling market.
| Bonds were lower in sympathy with
stocks. Total sales were $3.50 900. The
new IS, when issued, were &c lower in the
| bid price.

The fact that the Y. NJ c. A. has been

feet and 262 square feet of crate. Dur
ing her six hours natural draught trial
the engines developed 3,10O horse pow
er and gave speed of 17.19 knots. The
forced draught trial gave 4,030 horse
power and 1904 knot speed. The coal
consumption was exceptionally low, be-
ing only Las pounds per horse power

dius of action or endurance at 10 knots

200 YEARS.
Anniversary of Founding OF a Mis-

sionary Society.
The Bishop of Honolulu held con-
ference with his clergy yesterday, al
St. Andrews Cathedral, to consider
the steps that should be taken to COM
memorate the two hundredth anniver-
sary of the founding OF the Society
for the Promotion of Christian Knowl-
edge.
The Diocese of Honolulu has bene-
flied largely by the liberality of this
society and it was felt that a srong
effort should be made to celebrate the
attainment of the society's two hun
dredth birthday in fitting manner.
1t was decided that a public meet
ing should be held in the Cathedral
school room on Tuesday, March Sth,
at p. m, at which speeches should
be delivered setting forth the origin
and history of the society and its con-
nection with the work of the church
in these Islands.
The speakers have not been finally
settled upon, but arrangements are in
progress and it is hoped that a meet
ing worthy of the occasion will be
secured.

ant Function.
Admiral Miller, Captain Dyer and
officers of the U. S. S. Baltimore cele-
brated Washington birthday in most
becoming style aboard that ship last
night Certainly no function aboard
an American man-of-war equal to that
of last night, has ever been given in
the port of Honolulu before. Not less
than four hundred people took advan-
tage of the kind invitations issued to
them. The launches and boats of both
the men-of-war in port were used for
the transportation of the guests to and
from the Baltimore.
The Baltimore was literally ablaze
with red, white and blue lights and the
flags and bunting which formed a can
opy and served as decoration for the
sides of the deck were most advanta-
geously shown thereby Nothing what
ever was spared in the decorations.
Everything unseemly in an occasion
of the kind was prettily hidden by
flags or pennants. Even the band of
the Baltimore which played such at
tractive music for the dance, was hid
den behind flags.
The foremost society people of Ho-
nolulu were there and every one seem
ed to enjoy the pleasant function to
the full. The officers were most zeal
Gus in seeing TO the comfort of the
guests of the evening.
