THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, April 27.-Stocks were
opened this morning, and after moder-
ate fluctuations either way, slid off be-
low yesterdays prices. There were
adviees of crop damage Sterling ex-
change was strong at higher figures,
and call money at the legal rate, per
cent in the afternoon, all of which com
bined to send prices off with a rush,
and the market closed weak under
pressure.
The demand for money was inciden-
tai to the preparations of corporations
to meet May disbursements, and then
there was a disposition among traders
to anticipate a possible squeeze in call
money tomorrow, when loans carry
over to Monday. There was moderate
arbitrage buying for London account

to switch their position and sell for a

The trading in a half million shares
was practically all for professional OPP
orators. Silver certificates represent
ing 100000 ounces changed hands at
from 631l to 64A cents, the latter being
the highest figure in over two years.
The bull speculation in silver as well
as dividend gossip, impaired strength
to Denver and Rio Grande issues. An

"LEE" WHITE IS OUT.

Protest Of Citizens Has De-

Grafton, April 27.-South Grafton
wins. The protest OF representative
citizens of the south end of the town
before the selectmen against having
three licensed rumshopr within Their
limits, was not without avail, and as a
result only two rumshops will thrive
in the district which for years has paid
tribute to three.
The board Of selectmen at then
special meeting, this afternoon, after
sitting for an hour and half behind
closed doors, decided the question OF
licenses for another year.
The licenses as granted are: First
and fourth-class licenses, John King
keeper of the Klondike saloon in Farm
umsville; Charles st. Germaine, pro
prietor Of Hotel st. Germaine at Fish
erville, and Walter Ripley proprietor
of the Quinsigamond House, North
Grafton. A. J. Kirby was also granted
a first-class license only.
Druggists licenses: Harry S. White
of North Grafton and John H. Carpen-
ter of Grafton. Pool tables, Joseph l..
Clair. Victualler's license, William
Billiard and S. o. Daniels, both of North
Grafton. The applications for first
and fourth-class by Comfy and Flem-
ing of North Grafton and George Comfy
in Wilkinsonville, were refused on
account of abutters' protests in both in
stances.
The application of White and Kear-
nan was refused on the ground that the
board did not think it feasible, rs ii
was a detriment to the town. The
throw down" Of these partners VINO
have for years been granted licenses by
previous boards of selectmen, is great
surprise to many, although in many
cases an agreeable one.
When a well known and respected
citizen of South Grafton was APP
preached by a Spy representative on the
subject of the refusing of license to
White and Kearnan, he expressed him
self in joyous and emphatic. way as
follows: TT is simply miraculous that
we will have but two licenses in the
south part the ensuing year. Why, my
friend, in the past when have thought
that God is just, have really Shaken
in my boots for the future of Graf

Boston had another active day in
the stock market yesterday. There was
enough of reaction in a few of the
leading copper stocks to make the
market interesting, but most of these
rallied we'll. A drop of 3ss to 42ss in
Centennial was the main feature of
weakness in the copper shares. Centen-
NAL has been soft for a week or more
of late with no generally understood
reason, which surprises the street in
view of the notable firmness in the
other Fay shares, notably Old Colo
ny and Union, with Mayfiower in curb
dealings. Utah led in activity, over
5000 shares changing hands in the
morning. Prices rose n, to 50A, fell to

IN THE coPPERs.

Activity in United States mining
shares has been the feature of the out
side market for the past year, trsnsac-
tions aggregating from $4,000 to $4,000
shares each day. Officials of the com
pany say that the advance in the stock
undoubtedly has been due to the fact
that the public is beginning to appre-
ciate the position Of the property ana
it's relatively low selling price com
pared with other Utah copper mining
stocks. The two principal mines owned
by the United States company are lhe
Telegraph and Jordan, which are well
known in Utah and which have been
profitably worked for over thirty years.
The United States company has planned
and intends to carry out extensive de-
Velopment work which should open up
large reserve ore bodies. The value OF
the output of these mines up to date
is between forty and fifty millions.
The New York Evening Post says;
what the Wall street public wants is
vague and mysterious tales of a shad-
owy but benevolent combination pup
licly offering to buy copper mine stocks
and to pay so. or 60 per cent more for
