WALL STREETS BUSY DAY.
Favorable War News Caused Demand
For Stocks.

New York. May 7.-Stock brokers had
a busy two hours during the short ses-
/ sion of the exchange today and there
were no intervals of idleness The market
was active throughout and the keenness
/ for the stocks gathered force as the ses-
! sion progressed until it had became very
much like a scramble towards the close.
| Occasional offerings by operators con-
! tent to take their very substantial profits
! were swsSiowed UP with almost no effect
! in prices. The element of apprehension
which had caused the reaction at the close
yesterday was cleared up. The release
of the Lafayette eliminated the fear of a
complication with France over her
seizure. The announcement of the arrival
of the McCulloch at Hong King with ds-
patches from Admiral Dewey relieved the
natural uneasineSS that was beginning
TO De felt over the prolonged delay in re-
ceiVing official adviceS from him There
was some heSitancy in the trading until
an official confirmation had been received
from Washington of the good news from
Manila. The completeness of the victory
and the almost entire exemption from
damage of the United States forces
emphasized the new important bearing of
the event upon the prospects for a speedy
termination of the war.
The depression of some American Sc
curities in London before the opening
here was ignored and the advance in
prices was inaugurated from the opening.
The strong limitations coming from Of
fetal circles in Washington that import
son by Sunday and reports that the Span
ish fleet had been sighted off the French
West Indies aroused an expectation that
the first step towards the destruction of
SPANS naval force in the Atlantic was !
near at hand and could safely be dis |
counted in the market.
The continued excitement and advanc- |
ing prices in wheat gave added strength |
to the stocks of railroads running |
through the wheat belt. The bank state |
ment was also interpreted as distinctly |
favorable in the second hour and the |
DAVIS net gains ranged between / and 3 /
points for most of the leading stocks
The week development in the money
market show that the long process of |
preparation to meet the country's war |
needs has been completed. 1t is also
significant that the gold which continues
TO come from abroad no longer goes to
the liquidation of loans, indicating that
the imports of gold are made on current
accommodations of exchange. Business
in other fields feel the benefit of the easy
money conditions. The confidence that
the progress towards prosperity is about
to be resumed is the real ground of the
buoyancy in the stock market
The bond market has fully shared in the
activity and strength of the stock mar

MOB KILLS TWO.
CO1ored Man and His Wife Slain N
Indian TerritOry-An AS
sailant Killed.

Muskogee, l.. T., March 21.-A das-
tardly outrage was committed Saturday
night in the town of Wybark, five miles
north of here, resulting in the death of
two men and a woman. The house OF
Ed Chalmers, a negro who recently
married white woman, was attacked
during the night by six white men, who
had evidently determined to murder the
negro and his wife, both of whom had
been threatened by white men who dis
liked the union. A door of their cabin
was broken in and the negro and his
wife were shot down, but not before
Chalmers had put up good fight
against his assailants. The woman was
killed outright and though Chalmers
succeeded in driving off the attacking
party, they left him mortally wounded
and he died before daylight.
Sunday morning the body, of one
Matthew, an aged white man who lived
at Gibson station, was found near the
Chalmers cabin, pierced with bullet.
Matthew answers the description given
by Chalmers before he died of one of his
assailants. There were evidences that
Matthew's body had been dragged from
Chalmers house to the place where it
was found. A gun lay beside the body,
evidently put there to give the impress
sion that the dead man had murdered
the negro and his wife. Deputy United
States marshals are Investigating the
killing and it is believed that the MUIR
Gerers will be BROUGHT to Justice.
