New York, Aug. 1.-THE stock market

former group had quite handsome ga,ns
remaining IT the close OF the day. Fed
eral Steel and Colorado Fuel being the
only ones In the group to snow net losses.
Tennessee Coal was still foremost in the
movement and touched s. 1-2 but failed
to make its net gain a whole point There
was a tremendous scramble to take on

its gain was wiped out in realizing

the demand had been satisfied.

FOOT GUARDS GIFT TO REGIS
TRAR HAMILTON.

Present Him With Silver Loving Cup in
Honor of Their Latest Recruit.
The Foot guards held well
attended drill at the armcfy last even
ing. On its conclusion all the members
assembled in the parlors of their armory
and listened to a neat little speech by
Major Brown, accompanying his presen-
tation on behalf of the company OF
solid silver loving cup, appropriately en-
graved to Registrar Charles A. Hamil-
ton, denoting their satisfaction at his
enrolment of new recruit in the COM
pany's ranks few days ago
In presenting the cup, Major Brown
said that as the recruits were multiply
ing so fast, he thought it might be
good idea to form them into an auxiliary
with a white flag as a banner and a
milk bottle as their side arms In con-
Guiding, he congratulated Mr.. Hamil-
ton upon being the possessor of such
fine, handsome boy.
The members of the company then ad-
journed to the upper part of the armory,
where a light lunch was served, fol-
lowed by a smoker.
Five applications for membership in
the company were received last evening,
as follows: Henry Fresenius, Freder-

Unknown Travelling Man Dies ny
Asphyxiation.

A guest at the Tontine hotel who reg
istered as j. c. Grey, Boston, committed
suicide in his room by asphyxiation
some time during Sunday and was not
found until late yesterday morning. At
that time one of the chambermaids on
going to air the room found the door
| locked and a strong smell of gas per-
ceptible, and, becoming alarmed, she
called one of the bell boys, who broke
open the door. The rush of gas which
| issued from the room was almost over
powering, but the windows were opened
Immediately and the form Of man ly-
ing face downward upon the bed as II
asleep was discernable. His death was
evidently due to the inhalation of gas
and had been planned with great care.
The crevices of the windows and doors
had all been stuffed with paper, which,
while it kept the gas in, put off the hour
of discovery as long as possible.
Medical Examiner White was called
and an examination of the man was
made No motive for the act was dis
closed, however, and as he had evidently
taken pains to conceal his identity it
remains a secret.
The man registered at the hotel on
Friday evening and paid for his lodging
for one day in advance He put in an
appearance again on Saturday, when he
again hired the room for another day.
That was the last seen of him until his
discovery yesterday morning. In APP
pearance he was evidently q commercial
traveller, well dressed and with an air
of prosperity. Although he registered
as being from Boston, it is thought that
this was merely device to conceal his
identity, as one or two marks which he
had forgotten to remove in his prepare
tions for the deed, such as pair of
shoes with the label of the Aston House
shoe store upon them, seem to indicate
his place of residence as New York His
mind was evidently wrought up for the
deed, as a loaded revolver was found in
his pocket.
Medical Examiner White has given
out the following detailed description
which may aid in the identification of
the body:
Age 90, height feet inches, weight
$50 or 100 pounds light complexion,
brown hair, blue eyes, smooth shaved,
TWO lower teetll luIlieu lHWdluS, scar
across the metacarpial joint of fore
finger of right hand wart on left groin;
wore brown wrappers; cotton drawers
white shirt sold by Thomas Miller &
Sons, 1851 Broadway, New York, Is col
lar, ribbed trousers, checked vest with
light spots, very dark naval blue sack
coat, double-breasted; nice black light
weight overcoat, derby hat, size 6B;
laced shoes, size or 61a; very nice
white linen handkerchief embroidered
with letter &C"
Twenty cents in coin and a cheap
pocket knife of peculiar make. with
disappearing blade in cylindrical met
al handle, were found in the pockets.
