CAPITAL TRACTION BONDS
A Proposed Issue to Provide for the
Floating Debt, &c.
Advance in the Stock is Attributed d
to the Proposed Allotment
to Stock holders.

The feature of the local stock market to-
day the advance in the price of Cap
ital Traction Company stock. Yesterday
this stock sold for 931. Today sales were
made for 944 being an advance of 81 per
share. The total amount traded in today
was nearly 200 shares. For some time past
this stock has been strong feature of
the local market and has been maintained
steadily through the dullness of the sum
mer months. The usual explanation given
for the strength of this security was that
the road was doing a good business, and
that the receipts were sufficient to justify
an advance in the dividend to per cent
per annum. 1t was further claimed that
this was to be done at the dividend period
IN April, the surplus being used in the
meantime for betterments, especially in the
line.
1t is stated from an authoritative source
that 1t Is the purpose of the company to is
sue bonds at per cent and pay off the
floating debt besides provide for any ex-
tensions that may be authorized in the
future. 1t is the intention to give the
stockholders the opportunity to subscribe
for the bonds pro rata.
The effect of bond issue as a rule is to
cause the stock of the company authoriz-
ing them to advance, and so it is thought
that this contemplated step of the Capital
Traction Company furnishes an expana-
tfOn of the rise in the market quotations of
the stock and of the strength it has shown
during the past year.
The total proposed issue of bonds will be
one million and a half. OF this amount one
million will be used in paying off the GER
ttficateS Of Indebtedness, or really the notes
of the company, which were issued when
the money was borrowed to make the
change in the motive power of the road
from the cable to the underground electric
system. The balance of the bonds will be
retained in the treasury Of the company
and not issued until the money is needed
to make such extensions of the read as
may be authorized.
A resolution authorizing such an issue Of
stock Will be presented at :te annual meet
ing of the company, which will be held in
January next. The company thus far has
issued no bonds.

TO DEFEAT MCKINLEY.
An Organized Secret Movement to
Prevent His denomination.

There is an organized secret movement
looking to the defeat of President Mckin-
ley for denomination. The existence of
this movement is known to some of the
Presidents friends, and it is said that the
President was induced to make his west
ern trip somewhat of a campaigning tour
with the view of counteracting what is
being done under cover by his enemies. The
positiyeness and Openness of the Presi-
dents recent speeches, especially that of
yesterday in Wisconsin, in which he comes
out without equivocation in defense of the
policy of expansion, is regarded as proof
that he has become thoroughly satisfied
that the country is behind him in this
policy and that by that sign he can defy all
opposition 1t is known that the planning
to bring Admiral Dewey into the field as
a candidate against the President is not the
only thing that is being laid out in the
way of developing an opposition in the re-
publican national convention. An effort is
being made to perfect an organization
strong enough to prevent McKinleys re-
nomination independently of the candidacy
of any particular man at this time in mind.
If Dewey should be available, he would
probably be the first choice, but it is not
proposed to make the issue dependent upon
his availability. How far the movement
has met with encouragement cannot be
escertained, but a number of prominent
men have been approached on the subject
and u definite plan of campaign has been
disclosed to them.

ARGUMENT IN lNGHAM CASE
District Attorney Beck Severely Arraigns
the Defendant.
As an Attorney He Has Sworn to Pro
tect Rather Than Cheat
the Government

PHILADELPHIA, October 17-The Jury
in the trial of Ellery p. Ingham, ex-United
states district attorney, and his former as
sistant, Harvey X. hewitt, on the charges
OF conspiracy and bribery in connection
with the Lancaster revenue stamp counter
feiting case, today heard arguments on the
testimony.
District Attorney Beck characterized the
defense as perjured and impudent He also
Indignantly scored the attempts of the de-
PENDANTS and their counsel to cast asper-
sions his character, when he. as prose
cutting attorney, could not defend himself
Mr.. Beck assured the jury that he had
absolutely no personal feeling in the prose-
cution of the defendants. As regards the
crime with which they We're charged he
said he considered it the most unpardon-
able in the calendar. Ingham and hewitt
he declared, had not the slightest excuse
for becoming parties to it They were not
in need of money. They were lawyers who
had sworn to defend the Constitution of
the United States, yet they permitted
themselves to participate in a conspiracy
which would result in the debauchery of
the currency.
Mr.. Beck dwelt upon the contention of
the defendants that they had employed
Secret Service Agent McManus in the ca
pacity of private detective. He declared
that even were this so, the lawyers would
have been guilty of an irregularity of
which they as lawyers would have been
aware, in making use of a United States
employe to furnish information against the
government.
The district attorney then showed how
Mr.. hewitt on the stand had admitted that
the object of employing McManus was to
secure "a little information" That, Mr..
Beck declared. was the governments con-
tention. The defendants wanted to buy "a
little information" from a government en-
ploye.
In proving the falsity of the conspiracy
which Ingham had said Kendig told him
had been formed against Kendig and Jacobs,
to ruin their business, Mr.. Beck called the
attention of the jury to the fact that
neither Kendig nor Jacobs had suggested
a detective, but that Mr.. hewitt had done
so. He characterized the testimony Of
Ingham and hewitt that Jacobs and Ken
dig paid them money TO employ a secret
service operative for the purpose of inves-
tigating an alleged conspiracy, the most
improbable, and the most impudent lie ever
perDetrated in a court room.
In concluding, Mr.. Beck asserted that
very little Importance could be attached to
character witnesses. A man may have an
excellent reputation, he said, and Yet be
guilty of crime. He quoted the examples
of Judas Iscariot, Lord Bacon and Benedict
Arnold whose regulations were good until
their crimes had been committed.

STATES VIOLATE A TREATY.
consequently the Existing Swiss Con-
VentiOn Must Be Terminated,

The State Department has regretfulIy
come to the conclusion that the existing
treaty between the United States and
switzerland must be terminated and steps
in that direction will soon be taken. The
necessity for this action arises from the
action of certain of the state governments
In enforcing local laws, which in their op-
Grafton prevent Swiss insurance companies
from dong business in those states. While
these laws were not aimed directly at the
Swiss companies, providing, as they do, for
discriminatory taxes against foreign cor
porauons, they constitute a direct violation
OF the treaty between the United States
and Switzerland, whereby the United States
guaranteed to Swiss concerns the same
rights to do business within the limits of
the United States are enjoyed by United
States corporations.
1t is felt that it would be useless for the
national government to demonstrate with
the governments of the states which have
thus violated the treaty, so that there is
nothing to be done but to surrender that
convention.

II present expectations are realized 1t is
