THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

The stock market was strong throughout the
day on q volume of business we'll under the
daily totals recorded last week 1t was thought
st the opening that the declining tendency noted
on Tuesday would bring in heavy selling ORDERS
from the public; but actual dealings showed
more buying than selling, and no disposition on
the part of substantial interests to assume the
bear side Of the market Many traders believe
that a. reaction Of considerable size is due, but
few traders have the courage to sell the market
short Temporary reactions like that Of Tues
dav NAV be looked for. and a sharp decline may
come when least expected: but the people who
buy stocks for a long pull have every reason
70 expect a much higher range Of values before
the end Of the current fiscal year. Burlington. at
@ net gain Of over per cent, was the leading
feature yesterday. investment and speculative
buying induced by the report Of contemplated
refunding operations carrying the price to l37h,
against 1264 one week ago. All Of the granger
shares moved higher. and in the case Of st. Paul
special nducement TO buy the stock was found
in the company's splendid showing Of earnings
for the second week In January. The entire
railway list was strong and the industrials
rule showed net gains at the close. Pan
handle" was again quietly absorbed. The sig
nfcance Of the market movement In Pan
handle" stock is not yet clear to the rank and
that the buying is based upon substantial
foundations. and that the recent break from rs
to 66 represented In greatpa the efforts Of In
slders to accumulate the stock at cheaper
level
When the active speculation IN stocks like
Burlington has carried the quotations for the
high h-class shares TO a. level warranted by in
trinsic worth and the prioe OF money. there will
be an important movement Of capital into the
cheaper priced stocks such the Atchison,
Union and Northern Pacihcs and stocks Of that
grade. while the issues selling under the last
named will also have their turn in reaching
higher figures. Some valuable equities exist in
the w-priced stocks. II the time Is taken to
Investigate the merits OF companies like the
Chicago Great Western St Louis and San Fran
CISCO ST. Louis Southwestern. Southern Rail-
way. and In the industrials American Cotton
OIL and Standard Rope and Twine. II readily
will be seen that the common stocks OF these
concerns contain great speculative possibilities
Money promises to remain cheap throughout
the year. And II business transactions continue
on as large volume as at present. II National
and private wealth and financial stability re-
main unshaken. the movement IN securities
must by the force Of these factors, continue
active, and the low-priced stocks enjoy an ad-
vance OF no small proportion. Money will over
how from the standard shares and find its way
into hitherto neglected issues.

Roosevelt Favors General Wood for the
Important Position.
New York, Nov. 15.-A special to
the Herald from Washington says:
President Mckinley will tell congress
of his intentions to appoint civil COVER
nors of Cuba and Puerto Rico, and may
even wait for congressional action be-
fore announcing the appointments.
This statement is made on the authority
of member of the committee on for.
eign relations who had just talked with
the president on the subject.
Strong pressure is being brought to
bear upon the president for the imme-
diate appointment of these governors.
Governor Roosevelt is particularly ur-
gent in his championship of General
Wood for the Cuban billet. He wants
the appointment made at once, believ-
ing that the time is ripe for civil gov
ernment and that General Wood is just
the man to effect the change with the
best results for all concerned.
The president is inclined to agree
with Governor Roosevelt on all points
except the immediate appointment.
With congress only a few weeks of.
he is considering whether it would not
be advisable to allow that branch of
the government to have a voice in the
matter. A comprehensive plan for the
government of Puerto Rico is now be-
ing worked into shape by Secretary
Root, which will be presented in the
form of bill similar to the one now
pending for the government of Hawaii.

Dewey's Mon Defeated . Vastly supe-

New York, Nov. ia special to
the Herald from Washington says: On
behalf of Admiral Dewey and his off,
GERS and men, Washington attorneys
have asked the court of claims to find
that the amount of bounty money due
them is 1882, 800. The decision of the
court will establish precedent which
will affect the amount of bounty to be
distributed among the officers and men
of the North Atlantic squadron, which
destroyed the squadron of Admiral Ger
vera. If the finding of the court is in
accordance with the request, the ad-
miral's share of the bounty will be
SIC, 1894.
Attorneys base their case upon the
claim that the defeated Spanish force
was superior to the American squadron.
It is not contended that the enemy's
feet was superior, but that, taking
into consideration the gums at Corre-
gidor, Ell Fraile and other forts at the
entrance of the bay and those at Manila
and Cavite, which fred upon the Amer
ican ships continuously, the enemy's
force was superior.
The land batteries comprised 76
guns, ranging In caliber from 9.45
inches to 500 inches. and their weight
of fire is computed at $500 pounds.
The enemy's vessels were also sup
ported by mines and torpedoes in the
entrance to Manila bay and the bay it.

A TERRIBLE BATTLE
Fought to Compelvenezuelan
General to Surrender.
FOREIGN FLEETS BoMBARDED
The City Of Puerto Csbello Was Devss~
tated, and $50 Persons Were
Killed or Wounded.

Puerto Cabello, Venezuela, Nov. IA.
General Parades, former comman-
der OF the army of ex-President An.
drade, who had refused the demand
made upon him by General Castro and
the de facto authorities to surrender
the town, even when this was rein
forced by the request of the British,
American, French, German and Dutch
commanders, surrendered this morning
ut 10 O'Clock, after terrible battle.
The aspect of the city is one of ruin
and devastation. and it is estimated
that upward of $50 persons were killed
Or wounded during the fighting. DR..
Braisted, Of the United States cruiser
Detroit, and the other surgeons of the
various warships in the harbor are min.
lstering to the wants of the wounded.
General Ramon Guerra led in the
land attack upon the town and the po.
sition Of General Parades on Friday
night. Desultory fighting continued
until Saturday morning about o'clock,
and then fierce struggle ensued. Gen.
eral Parades made a stubborn defense,
but General Guerra forced an entrance
into the town at O'Clock yesterday.
As early as 8 o'clock Saturday morn.
Ing the feet arrived and began a bonn.
bardment, but the range was too great,
and the firing proved ineffective. Gen.
eral Parades held the fort on the hill
and Fort Liberatador until this morn.
