RIFLES FOR UNCLE SAM.
Winchester Arm Company Engaged

Winchester Arm Company Engaged on
Orders, But Not of Recent Date.
President Bennett, of the Winchester
Repeating Arms company, yesterday
morning, denied the truth of publish
ed report that his company had sus-
pended the manufacture of sporting
guns in order TO fill a government or
der.
Mr.. Bennett said: '"The Winchester
company has not stopped making
sporting guns or ammunition, and has
no intention of doing so. Our facilities
are such that we can fill all orders of
the government rapidly without inter-
fering with our regular trade. We
have not received any special inquiries
from the government in regard to our
facilities, and have no reason to expect
any, as the authorities know what they
are. It is true that we are running
overtime in some departments, and we
are filling navy department orders, but
these orders were received prior to the
sinking of the Name

The Stock Market

New York, March 1.-The stock mark
ct took on no well-defned character
to-day until after the publication of
the statement attributed to the secre-
tary of the navy that the element of
Spanish official responsibility for the
Maine explosion might be considered
to be eliminated from the situation.
This was in the last hour of the session
and the whole short interest apparently
rushed to cover the short lines that
have been put out in the last few days
on the developments following the
Maine disaster There had been cover
ing of shorts early in the day In con-
tinuance of yesterdays movement, but
a little later other short selling deyel-
oped on the theory that the market
would certainly sag again after the
large short interest had been covered.
The market had apparently swung to
a standstill and was drifting rather
aimlessly without yielding the previous
gains, when the buying movement set
in on the Long statement and the trad
ing took on all the appearance of a
runaway bull market. Some of the adj
Vances were violent, Metropolitan
Street Railway being pushed up to
1885, a net rise of IS points. This
stock closed at Isl. Manhattan, Sugar
and New York Central were also CON
spicuous in the movement, the former
showing an extreme advance of s
points and the latter rose points each.
There was large buying also Of the
grangers and Rock Island rose over 2
points above last nights level. The
whole list felt the upward movement
to a very noticeable extent and this
late. bulge added to the very substan-
tial advance already achieved makes a
showing of very striking net gains
ranging from to points in the gen
eral list and above that in exceptional
cases, buying for London account help
ed the strength In the early dealings.
There was some recovery in Spanish
securities in London and this seemed
to restore confidence to some extent
over the relations between Spain and
the United States. The resumption of
buying for London account Is in face
Of continuedehsrdenirg Of the money
market in London The inquiry FOR
gold for American account in London
and in Paris is reported to be still very
Keen, but no further engagements Of
gold for import were announced to- I
day and the rate for sterling exchange
hardened fraction, but is still at the
gold import point. The conditions In
the local money market have become
somewhat more Settled, the interior de-
mands for currency being somewhat
ess eager. The announcement by the
that no further withdrawals

result.

The English Woman Journalist.

From the Fortnightly Review.
 The really successful women journalistic successful, that is to say, from mascu- can be counted on the fingers of one hand. Nor, as far as one can see, is this likely ever to be different. The supposed free- dom of a journalists life, with its possible literary introductions, is at least as attrac- tive to young men as it is to young women; and which sex will in the long run prove best able to withstand the inevitable strain and unwholesome conditions of the journalists life? If woman cannot do night work and regular night work, the prizes of Fleet street are not for her. I do not say that she may not make living, but she will have to content herself with a kind of journalism far enough removed from literature-with the chatty article, or the women's papers, with the Firget-Me- Nots, the Home Notes, the Nursery Chats nots, the Home Notes, the Nursery Chats and the hundred-and-one scrappy periodi- calls which nave so successfully hit off the taste of the rising generation that they bid fair to reduce England once again to a con- dition of illiteracy. Indeed, there is deep- CT depth still
 What shall be said of the journalistic tout, unconnected with even the most ephemeral of newspapers, who lives by bouncing upon little scraps of information, and hawking them round the different newspaper offices, eking out, heaven knows how, the precarious existence doled out to her in shillings and half crowns by the shrewd business manager? Is that a life which commends itself to an educated xo- manf
