A PARADE FOR THE ASKING.
Any City May Have Naval Demon
strntiOn Now

Cities which desire TO entertain the
squadron now en- route to Boston from
Hampton Roads may have their desires
gratilied upon application to the Navy
Department
Congressman Bull, of Rhode Island. has
asked that after the vessels have been
exhibited at Boston as many of them as
can be spared in the exigencies of the
service be ordered 10 Providence, where
a reception and an entertainment will be
given to the officers and men on Septem-
Der 10.
There was some talk about the depart
ment of sending the ships to Portland.
Me, but no orders 10 this effect have been
Issued
The sailing of the vessels for Boston"
said Assistant Secretary Allen. was not
ordered simply that the people might wit
ness a naval parade, but because we are
cramped for accommodations and facili-
ties for them at any one place, and must
distribute them for repair and docking
Whlie the vessels are at Boston should
there be any delay In putting them In con-
dition there will be no objection by the
department to sending such of them as
can be spared without prejudice to the in
terests OF the service 10 places where thew
are asked for, and thus crafty the nat
ural and proper desire of the people TO
see their navy.

THE STOCK MARKET.
Trading Indicated an Unsettled
SpeculatiYe Sentiment


New York Aug S0-Interest today was
again chiefly taken UP with the state of
the money market. The banks generally
advanced the rates on standing call loans
to 2 f-2. but much of the new borrowing
was effected below that figure. The sup
ply of money of sixty to ninety days was
ample at from TO 1-2 per cent, which
indicates clearly that money lenders do
not expect that the current close con-
ditions will be other than transient. The
foreign exchange market was again weak,
but there were no engagements of gold
for import announced, nor was there any
confirmation to be had here of the re-
ported purchase in London yesterday of
40O 900 pounds for shipment to New York.
1t seems probable that this gold has
another destination, as 1t was not thought
today that the present conditions of he
foreign exchange market warranted such
extensive transactions in the metal. To-
days stock market was moderately ac-
tive, and the trading indicated an un-
settled speculative sentiment In the fore
noon dealings the anthracite coal shares
broke sharply under the lead of Jersey
Central and the Reading shares. The
market ignored the extensive purchases
by the foreign arbitrage houses, which in
the aggregate amounted TO upward of
25,000 shares. though at the opening the
market was comparatively firm. Relative
ly strong features of the market were
Southern Railway preferred, Union Pa
citic and the Northern Pacific shares.
The granger shares were actively traded
in and were fairly steady. Manhattan
was very active, and in the forenoon was
strong, but in the later trading the stock
declined rapidly. No particular explana-
tion attended its course or that of other
stocks, except in the cases of the anthra-
cite shares.

He ArrnnRes for the New York to

Boston, Aug 3O-The distilling ship Rain
bow left the dry dock today and it is
expected that the cruiser New York will
take her place tomorrow. Rear Admiral
Sampson was still on the lew York to-
day, making arrangements for the flag
ship to go in dry dock.
The auxiliary cruiser Resolnie arrived
at the navy yard early this morning and
is tied up to the Cob dock near the receiv-
ing ship Vermont. The Resolute has been
selected to carry the Cuban Commission
ers, of which Rear Admiral Sampson Is
one, to Havana. When she is ready to
leave the yard Rear Admiral Sanl1i on
will transfer his flag from the New York
to the Resolute. 1t Is expected that the
battleship Iowa will go in dock No to-
morrow. She will receive a general cvcr-
hauling.
The workmen began to overhaul the
Oregon today and she will go into div
dock as soon as the Iowa Is taken out.
Orders reached The navy yard today to
allow no visitors on the vessels In the
yard. Visitors have seriously interfered
with the work on the ships 1t has also
been noticed that visitors have taken
away screws and other small things on
the vessels and retained them as SOU

THE YANKEES DEPARTURE.
Her Crew viii BE Mustered Ont Mt
League Island.

New York, Aug. 30-The fleet of war
ships off Tompkinsville was further de-
pleted this morning by the departure of
the Yankee for the League Island navy
yard, where her crew will be mustered
out and the United States property on
board unloaded.
The sailors of the New York naval re-
serve on board hailed the order TO get
under way with delight The order for
the departure of the Yankee was re-
ceived aboard last night.
The warships now lying at anchor off
Tompkinsville consist Of the Texas,
Brooklyn, Massachusetts, and Indiana.
The other ships in the Narrows are
awaiting orders as to their ultimate des-
tination.
rumor went abroad in naval circles
yesterday that the Oregon might be or
dered to join Admiral Dewey at Ma
Mia. L is generally felt today among the
officers of the ship that the department
at Washington will probably select some
vessel which has not been subject to such
a heavy share of hard work attending
the naval fighting during the war with
Spain TO make the journey 10 the Philip
pines.

ARE DEEPLY INTERESTED.
The Survivors of the Old District
Regiment Meet.

Possibly no class of citizens in the Dis
trict is more deeply interested or enthu-
siastic in the matter of rendering the
members of the First Regiment of Dis
trict of Columbia Volunteers a rousing
reception on their return home than the
survivors of the District troops who went
to the front in the Civil War.
Those who defend and extend the power
of the nations flag, they believe, are en-
titled TO as great honor as those who pre-
served it. 1t is this spirit which has
prompted the survivors of 1se1-65'' to or
ganize for the purpose of aiding, as far
as is in their power, to give the District
boys a warm welcome on their return to
the city
The second meeting of the survivors of
the District volunteers who served in the
Civil War was held last evening at the
National Guard Armory. There was a
large crowd of old veterans present and
all were enthusiastic on the question of
receiving the boys like heroes when they
return to Washington.
The temporary organization which was
effected at the first meeting was con-
tinued with Dr. j. Lee Adams in the
chair and J. T. Ford as secretary. The

mander of the Potomac Grand Army of

John t. Chauncey was selected, and will
represent the survivors" at the meeting
OF the committee which will be held to-
morrow evening at G. A. r. headquarters
1t was found that the hall in which the
meeting was held was entirely too small
Tor the accommodation of those interest
ed, and at the suggestion of the secretary
the chair appointed Messrs. c. w. Sher-
wood, John L. Chauncey, Daniel Genau
and A. E. L. Keese a special committee
TO wait upon Mr.. Duvall, the superintend-
ent of the armory, and ascertain If the
survivors Association could not have
more ample accommodations at their next
meeting.
Mr.. Duvall assured the committee that
whenever the association wished 10 meet
they could have all the hall room they
needed. Mr.. keese has list of names of
all the survivors in the city and has kind
ly consented to notify each one of the
next meeting of the association. which
Will be held one week from tomorrow

BE Laid at Rest Today.
The remains of Second Sergt. Newton
H. Ferree, of Company K, First Regi-
who died at Camp Wikoff, Montauk Point,

transport which conveyed him and his
brother soldiers from the fever-infested
battlefields around Santiago, will be laid
TO rest in a soldiers grave in historic Ar
lington this afternoon. The funeral ser
vices will be held at the Church of Our
Father al 2:30 o'clock.
There will be no military display, as
the comrades of the dead soldier are,
most of them, too weak TO follow the bier
of their friend to its final resting place.
Besides the friends of the family, how
ever, several organizations have signified
their intention of attending the funeral
in body.
Among these are the Legion of Loyal
Women, OF which Mrs. Ferree, mother of
the deceased, was president for several
consecutive terms. and the members of
John A. Rawlins Post No. /, G. A. R., of
which his father was member.
Pursuant to an order issued by the pres
ident, Mrs. Lizzie W. Calver, the ladies of
the Legion OF Loyal Women will meet in
the parlors of the Church of Our Father
at 1:3O O'Clock, and after the services they
VIII attend the remains to the grave.
The comrades of John A. Rawlins Pest
will assemble at the church at 2:15 o'clock
an dwill act as escort to the remains.
The pall-bearers had not been named
last night, but will be selected from a
number of friends of the deceased in the
High School Cadet Regiment.

deceased, who was in the same company
