THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York. Feb 25.-There was a re-
covery in the prices of stocks today,
in which the engagement of gold for
import was the predominant influence.
The course of the exchange market
yesterday foreshadowed the early i'm
portation of gold, which is the direct
outcome Of the stiftening in the rates
for call money. The amount of ster-
ling exchanges held in New York Is
variously estimated at from $40,OOO,O0O
upwards. A large part of it has been
used as collateral for loans, and the
large liquidation of loans has released
a quantity Of this exchange and
brought it upon the market. In other
words, the rise in the money tale makes
1t more profitable to bring home funds
which have been left abroad on account
of the higher rate hitherto prevailing
there. The import of gold is likely to
continue unless there should be sharp
advance in the money market in Lon
don and Paris. The calling in of this
countrys gold credits abroad is likely
to put a stop for the present to foreign
buying of our securities, which has
been large of late and which continued
even today. The bears made an effort
to retain control OF the stock market.
but they were unable to wipe out the
gains shown in sympathy with London.
Trading was nervous during the first
hour, but after that the uoward ten
dency became fairly settled and con-
tinued throughout the day with occa-
sonal slight reactions. The days high
est level of prices was rot fully main
tanned, but net gains generally were
4 70
467, 900 shares.

EXPANSION OF MERCURY.

Few people imagine that an ordinary
thermometer bulb contains enough mer-
curry to stretch for miles, but this is a
fact. If tube miles in length, and the
size generally used, could be attached TO
termometer bulb, 1t would be found
that the mercury would fill it, for while
the column appears large, it is really Of
almost infnitcsimal size, being much thin
ner than a hair. The conveXity of the
outside of the tube through which it
passes maCnifes it, and as it's fiat side Is
toward the eye. it looks to be quite large,
and has that rounded appearance which
is so deceptive.

Business Generally VIII Be Sus-
pended While All Hands Attend
the Closing Exercises at the
Exposition Grounds.

Omaha day at the exposition will be q
great success if the efforts of the CONNER
cial club can make 1t so, and the members
through committee composed OF John f
UT, c. S Hayward. A. Hospe and Johr
Steel are bending all their energies in thai
direction.
The mayor has issued proclamation max
ing Monday, October 81, a civic holiday, and

lated petition among the business men OF
the city and have obtained the signatures
of 500 who have sgnifisd their Willingness
to close their houses and urge their en-
ployes and their friends to spend the day
on the grounds. This means that business

Election of Officers and Reading of
Reports Take UD Time.
with the election OF officers and listening
to number OF speeches the State Woman 3
Sdnrage association concluded its seven
reenth annual convention in the First Con-
gregational church yesterday.
1t began with a morning session, which
was taken up mostly with reports from the
various officers, including an address from
the president, Mrs. Clara Bewick Colby, on
the progress of the movement in Nebraska.
and some talks from the several judicial
district presidents on what has been ac-
complished in their sections.
The following new officers were elected
President, Mrs, Mary E. Smith HAYWARD OF
Chadron vice president, Mrs. A. ]. Marble
of Table Rock; recording secretary, Mrs.
Ellen Day of Aurora; corresponding secre-
tary, Mrs. Helen NJ. Golf of Lincoln; and
treasurer Mrs. Annie NJ. Steele of Hampton
The afternoon was devoted to a meeting
at which a number of the women repre-
senting the various national organizations
combined in the national council made ad-
dresses. The speakers were: Mrs. Getty NJ.
Drury OF Pender, Mrs. Lane of Table Rock,
Mrs Adelaide Ballard OF Hull, la, presi-
dent OF the Iowa state association, Susan b.
Anthony, Mrs. Kate Waller Barrett of Wash
ington, D.. c., the representative of the
Florence Crittenden mission movement and
Mrs $. NJ Walker president of the State
Womcn's Christian Temperance union.
Mrs. Lane, the Eighth judicial district
president, dilated upon the social features
of the suffraglsts in her town. The husbands.
sons and brothers of the women there had
recently repaid the women with a banquet.
for which the men did their own cooking.
and Il was found that their culinary accom-
plishments in the way of cakes and pastry
were fully good as anything provided by
| the other sex. The movement had proved q
| social as well as educational benefit.
All the arguments in behalf of equal suf-
| frage were presented by the speakers in one
! way or another. 1t was remarked that the
| liberation of women from political handl-
caps is as important to the institutions OF
this country as was the adoption of the res
olution by congress declaring that the peo~
| pie Of Cuba had right to their freedom
| which brought on the war with Spain. This
had been the sentiment of Rev Anna Shaw
| the day previous.
| \ resolution of thanks to the local com-
mittee was adopted and a declaration of the
| principles of suffrage and an outline OF the
character of the work ilyolved was read by

ell of Women; Mrs. Mary b. Haines of
Augusta, Kan, and a number Of others.
The fquor traffic. the tobacco habit,
cigarette smoking and the social evil were
candidly handled by these advocates of alb
stinence and prohibition. Mrs. Andrews
said the shooting of his sweetheart and
the suicide of himself immediately after
wards ny a young man who had been the
central figure in a local tragedy the last
week had been due as much as anything
else to his excessive smoking Of cigarettes
In the opinion of Miss Shaw and Mrs.
Boauchamp the social evil should be made
Just as disgraceful for men as for women.
