according to an affidavit filed at the State
Department by the bank officials, he pro-
cured $1,000 Oh notes, the endorsements of

cause of the Recent Bank Showing.

NEW YORK, Sept. 25.-The stock mar
ket opened moderately active, but with
common declines being shown, which in
some instances, extended to material di-
mensions. The weakest features of the
market were Brooklyn Rapid Transit, Sugar
Refining, Tennessee Coal and Iron, and
American Tobacco. The standard issues,
including the granger stocks also
reflected pressure, although the de-
clines in that quarter were generally with
in fractional limits. There was an absence
of news bearing upon particular stocks
over Sunday. The London market was
shown at general recessions, but the deal
ings there were presented at standstill
on account of the uncertainty regarding the
upshot of the situation in South Africa
The main influence in the local market
appeared to be the disappointment felt
iii regard to the showing made by the
banks on Saturday. Apparently it was
feared that further contraction in the
banks loan account was involved in the
bank statement, although the money mar
ket this morning of itself furnished no
grounds for uneaesiness. After the initial
recessions the market developed a some

SISTER BEATRICE DEAD.
The Mother Superior of Providence
HOspitaI Passes AWAY.

=
The death of Sister Beatrice, Mother
Superior of the Providence Hospital, oc-
CURED at about 1916 O'Clock p. m. today.
She had been complaining for some
months past, but it was not until about a
week ago that she was Frustrated. From
that time until her death she grew stead
lily worse. A general breaking down of
the system resulting from her advanced
years was the cause of her death.
Sister Beatrice was between seventy
three and seventy-four years of age and
became mother superior Of the hospital
about a year after the civil war. She has
served for thirty-three years.
Her name before she entered the sister,
hood was Ellen Duffy. She was born in
Ireland and came to this country when a
young woman. She was a woman of the
most beneficent character, was charitable
without stint, and was always ready and
willing to lend helping hand to those in
afflction. The news of her death was a
sad blow to all who came in contact with
her and she was spoken of in the highest
terms
AT police headquarters when the news
of her death came many instances of her
benevolence were recalled, and she was
spoheu " as having oeeA d inouei "ohiah.
When deserving case came to her atten-
tion she always made the most strenuous
efforts to care for it, although the hospital
was often filled to its utmost capacity.
She had great executive ability, coupled
with her kindness of heart, and during her
administration the hospital has grown in
every way. When she came to Washing
ton she had money, and this she used to
erect an addition to the hospital building.
At various times at her suggestion other
additions have been made to the building.
The arrangements for the funeral have
not been COMPLETED.

the big show case near the front door with
incandescent lights was the happy idea of
Manager William Bren, the lights tasteful
ly setting off the goods displayed and many
persons stopped in front of the store as
they were passing, to admire the display.
The nickle arch over the case, also set with
about 300 incandescent lights was pro-
nounced one Of the handsomest pieces OF
electrical work ever seen in Washington.
The third floor had many visitors who
were delighted with the art goods display
