Somewhat TO the disappointment Of many
room traders the market was not strong
during the opening hours this morning.
Nearly the entire list went OFF from half
point to a point, and there was little bust
ness done as compared with many OF The
brisk days in the last two weeks. The eX-
plantations were various, but II was eVl-
dent that there was selling by some OF the
professionals London was a seller also,
which was a disappointment. The Phil
ippine situation was used as bear argr-
ment. After such an opening the Street
did not know exactly what to expect during
the remainder of the day. On the whole,
however, the better belief was perhaps
bullish. a decline Of a point is not
enough to dampen the convictions formed
in ng-continued bull market. especially
when there is nothing bearish in the gen
eral situation to base bear campaign on.

Another of the Flower stocks. Chicago
Gas, was one of the weakest on the list
this morning, despite the bull tips that
were floating in the streets last Friday
regarding it. There was a slump Of more
than point in the first hour from the
high figures on Friday. The street is
mystified at this weakness as Mr.. Flower
has been very bullish on this stock, as
we'll as on the others of his favorites. 1t
is thought likely, however, that the pro-
fessionals may be selling 1t in order to
get in at the best figures for the advance
when it comes. The stock pays six per
cent and when other issues paying four
are above that figure it seems certain that
such bull market must send its price up.

ADM. DEWEY'S RECEPTION.
Tho Committee Makes Public the Plans
for His Entertainment While In the
Capital of the Nation.

WASHINGTON, July 22.-Adm. Dewey
having cabled approval of the plans
for his reception at the national capt.
tai the committees in charge of that
event are free to proceed at once with
the necessary preparations. Some
time ago the district commissioners
appointed committee of 100
citizens to take representative
cognizance of the admiraPs return to
the national capital, which committee
organized and subdivided. The eX-
ecutive committee sketched a pro-
gramme, which was approved by
President Mckinley, Secretary Long
and the committee of one hundred.
The programme provides for a suit
able committee escort from New York
to Washington. Probably on the
afternoon of his arrival the admiral
will be conducted to the east front of
the capitol where Secretary Long will
present the sword of honor which was
voted by congress. A capaciOus plat
form, suitably decorated, will be erect
ed for the accommodation Of the pres
ident, his cabinet, the members of the
diplomatic corps and other distin-
guished persOnages.
In the evening there will be mill
tary, naval and civic parade, in which
every organized body in the District of
Columbia is expected to partici-
pate. This feature is to be
of the torchlight variety and is
to be accompanied by a general
illumination, the most elaborate
effects being along the line of
the march. The parade will be re-
viewed by the president, Adm. Dewey
and many of the most prominent ma
tional officials and international rep
resentatives. Following the parade
will be band concerts in various Sec
tions of the city.

Rev. Elijah p. Browns Opinion of the

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July 22.-Rev.
Elijah P. Brown, founder of the RAMS
Horn, in earlier life was an infdel, but
Is years ago he turned Christian and
became a preacher.
Concerning Bob" Ingersoll he says:
During the years when [ was an I'M
believer myself Ingersoll was my
patron saint. l knew him and
loved him, and never missed an
opportunity to hear him speak.
He was sincere and honest in his oppo-
sition to Christianity, and he was not
talking for money, as generally sup
posed, but because he earnestly de-
sired to do good. He was a mistaken
man, as every Christian knows, but he
was an honest one. l think he was
the greatest-hearted man l ever knew
who was not Christian"

A NEW VICAR GENERAL.
Filipino Priest Leads a Movement for the
independence of the Church in the
Philippines From the Spanish.

MANILA, July PA Filipino priest
named Gregorie Agripay, with the in
surgents, is trying to lead a movement
for the independence of the church in
the Philippines from the Spanish
priesthood. He has issued a procla-
nation declaring himself the vicar
general of all the Filipino priests
in the districts outside of American
control on the island of Luzon and is
melting the priests to disobey the reg
ulations of the church and brother
hoods The archbishop of the district
has issued a bull communicating
Agripay and this action has increased
the feeling between the Filipino and
the church.
The archbishop threatened to excom-
municate the owners of Spanish papers
publishing announcements of protes-
tant and masonic meetings, whereon
an American paper warned him that
he might be bundled out of the island
like any disturber of the peace if he
should incite religious animosities.
The Dominican friars have begun
the publication of a newspaper under
the title of Libertas, for the purpose
of defending the brotherhood.

ploys large number of girls making

terrible manner. Both eyes are gone,
her hands blown off and holes are torn
in her body. She remained conscious
long enough TO state that it was
through her that the explosion came
about.
Mrs. Ollie Davis a widow, with one
child, was frightfully burned and will
die.
Ennis Wykof, aged %, married, had
one eye blown out, but he aided in res
cuing the girls from the building.

mystery.
