Special to the Register.
Clarksburg, w. Va, July 26.-The
property of show under the name OF
Meredith, Hatch & Tedrow, which ex-
hibited here yesterday, was attached
this morning and has not been able
to get away. To-day Albert Meredith.
from Wheeling, w. H. Hatch and }.
P Tedrow, of Steubenville, Ohio, the
proprietors of the show, were arrested
by Deputy Marshal Law and brought
before Commissioner Thomas s.
Spates upon a charge Of violation OF
section seven, special war revenue tax,
who held them in bond in the penalty
of three hundred dollars to await the
action of the grand jury. They had
paid ten dollars tax, which they claim
they were advised was the correct
amount, by a sub-collector, while an
other authority construed the law to
require a tax of one hundred dollars.
Consequently the arrests will deter
mine a very important question for
ShOWmel.

MERELY FEELERS.
But the Government Does Not Object
to Them, For They May Serve a
Good Purpose.

Washington, July 26.-The reported
statement from the Vatican of what
purports to be terms Of peace accept
able to both the United States aad
Spain Is set down here as only one Of
the many "feelerS" that have been
thrown out within the past two weeks,
probably to test public feeling in the
United States primarily, and second
arily to break slowly to the masses of
the Spenish people the realization of
their complete defeat, something Of
which they are not yet aware because
Of the superhuman efforts put forth
by the Spanish government to sup
press or pervert the news of actual
events. 1t is suspected here that the
conditions named: The annexation to
the United States Of Cuba and Porto
Rico and the REIMBURSEMENT to Spain
Of the Philippines, represent what may
be now looked upon as the maximum
concessions that Spain is will to make.
From this point Of view the statement
is not discouraging, though OF course,
it must be realized that the Spanish
maximum is very far below the Amer
lean minimum. Still there must be
some starting point for negotiations
that will in the end lead up to peace,
and, therefore, the publication of these
various "feelers'' is not deprecated by
our government though so far it can
be positively asserted they have no
basis of fact, at least on this side of
the Atlantic.
Baron Spec Won Sternberg, the Ger
man secretary of the legation, called
at both the State and War Departments
to-day. His visit had no connection
with peace negotiations, being inspired
simply by desire to secure permits
sion from our government for a num-
Der OF German surgeons to visit the
American army camps here and in
Cuba

StOckS-A concentration OF causes
was responsible for the awakening OF
the stock market to-day from the letn-
argy that has held it fer nearly two
months. The bears had their innings
early in the day, assisted by lower
range OF prices for Americans from
London. Later Northwest and its sub
sidiary road, Omaha, led rally, and
from them the movement brOadened
and strengthened all through the rail-
road list. Strength was also radiated
from a group Of bituminous coal reads,
including Norfolk & Western prefer
red, Chicago, indianapolis & Louis
Vile preferred, Baltimore e Ohio and
Wheeling Sc Lake Erie preferred. The
movement in these stocks served to
make rather conspicuous the quietude
Of other soft coal stocks, which have
had an important place in the pending
plans for amalgamation OF the soft
coal interests The activity and
strength in Sugar was also a dominat-
ing influence in the market, aceOmpa-
MED, though it was, by all sorts Of
sensational rumors and very obvious
iy manipulated to squeeze the shorts.
Peace runlors were renewed in the
later dealings, and the announcement
of the successful landing of the United
States forces in Porto Rico also added
to the buOyant tendency Of trading.
But the most potent element IN the
situation was the growing certainty
that an abundance of money would
continue at the command Of the bus
mess Of this country Sterling ex-
change fell 14c additional in the &C
tual rates and 1sc in the posted rates.
Demand sterling at SASHA is within
1ac of the level at which reent gold
importations have been made. The
treasury has received about s10S,0 0O,-
coo from the bond issue, which in
ludes the subscriptions for $500 or
less, without affecting the money mar
ket. The payment Of the rest OF the
subscriptions in installments will be
offset by the disbursements on war
account. thus assuring the money mar
ket against futrc disturbance. Call
money fell to per cent. to-day.
The pressure of idle money was
very evident in the bond market,
seeking all issues except the class of
gilt-edged bonds which have risen to
practically prohibitive prices. Total
sales. S4,305 600.
