New York, Sept 12.-The recuperation
of the money market by means of the
severe liquidation of the last two days
was reflected in a most improved tone in
the stock market. Prices were little
inclined to advance in the early dealings
in spite of the buoyant tone in the Lon
don market and the vigorous strength
shown by a few specialties Early loans
on call were made at 7@71A per cent. and
a decline in prices set in soon after the
opening, which carried the level generally
below that of last night. The rate in
call loans then fell to 3 per cent. and af-
ter stiffening again spasmodically eased
off later in the day to per cent.
ABOUT midday there came the announce
ment that the treasury department had
decided to anticipate by 10 days an Octo-
Der payment of government bonds, which
VIII amount in the aggregate to more
than $5,000,000 The shorts took alarm at
the steady advance which set in and
rushed to cover, bidding prices up in the
closing dealings by wide advances to the
top level of the day. The closing was
very active and buoyant and showed net
gains ranging from one to six points. To-
day was the fortnightly settlement on the
. London stock exchange, where large
short interest is said to have existed in
Americans. The decline here, therefore,
was very opportune, and London bought
to the extent of about $4,000 shares
Tennessee Coal was strong from the
outset. and after moving in an cratic
way closed the day with an advance of
215 points. American Tobacco also de-
veloped early strength and left on more
than three points higher. Brooklyn
Transit was down nearly to yesterdays
lowest point and shows a fractional net
gain The new United States Milling stock
moved up all day and show net gains of
more than three points each. and Col
Grad Fuel as much.
There were active upward advances in
the leather stocks. The railroads gener-
ally gained in volume as the day adj
vanced and the upward movement was
quite uniform in the principal active is
sues, which have net gains of between
one and two points in many instances.
The movement of money on balance
continued in favor of the interior to-day
but debit balance at the clearing house
by the sub-treasury relieved the pressure
somewhat. So far as is known, there
was no fresh supply of money in the mar
ket though the sharp break in the call
loan rates suggested that some hidden
reserve might have been brought forward
Sterling exchange fell an additional frac-
ton for actual rates and posted rates
were reduced a half cent, but the fact
that the discounts in London were easier
indicated that no gold movement is in
prospect from that quarter.
Bonds were inclined to cover in SYM
pathy with stocks, the speculative issues

CHICAGO Markets,


Chicago, Sept 13.-Wheat opened very
dull and weak, September at Sc decline
and December &c below yesterdays close.
The bullishness caused by the govern
ment report had entirely disappeared
Foreign markets were weak and lower
and local and Northwest receipts were
heavy. The market with those conditions
prevailing was apparently in for a ses-
sion of dullness and further decline. But
shortly after the opening some sharp bid
ding for September brought light condi-
ton of affairs about in that option that
indicated a war among prominent elevator
interests for cash wheat.
The market suddenly became active,
with big and little shorts bidding for Sep
TENDER wheat, but securing little, until
the price had jumped from the opening
figure of 70lac to 72I4 G72ssc. At that price
elevator people holding the wheat let go
In sufficient quantities to relieve the pres

longs to sell, except at enhanced values,
made shorts decidedly nervous and kept
the market up during the entire session.

The Vanderbilt Estate.

New York, Sept. 13.-Cornelius VAN
derbilt, who had been under the shad
ow of death for several years and who
was one of the most methodical of men,
left a carefully drawn will, but its
terms are not known. His friends
think it will make provisions for the
charity in which he was interested. No
estimate of the estates value is less
than 500, 100000. There has been
reconciliation between Cornelius Van
derbilt, jr., and his parents, who OPP
posed his marriage with Miss Grace
Wilson, and it is doubtful If discrimi-
nation will be made against him. On
the death of Cornelius Vanderbilt, his
brother, William X, becomes the head
of the family. Mr.. Vanderbilts death
will force the retirement of the large
Vanderbilt family from any participa-
ton in the social doings of the fash
ionable world for some time to come,
and will also close to the members of
the gay world several of the largest

posed to be detained by the insurrec-

guments contained in the recent appeal
to the powers for recognition, and the
Filipino claims that Americans We're ag-

Notwithstanding the foregoing, we
could have accepted your sovereignty

the behavior of the Americans in the
beginning that they were strongly OPP

and the high-handed methods of deal

OF sufficient Importance to take to the
president for consideration. 1t has not
been made public.
After Roots return from the white
house he had a conference with Com
missioner of Navigation Chamberlain,
and also decided to take up the matter
of the Tartar with the state depart
ment with a view of having the ship
cleared at Hong Kong.

mand of the troops on the transport,
asking if, in his opinion, the ship was
over-crowded, and if there was just
ground for complaint of subsistence

A private message from Hong Kong
says complaint was made by 400 dis
charged regulars on board the Tartar of
overcrowding, whereupon clearance
was refused. The goth Kansas Volun-
teers, with General Funston, are
aboard, but it is believed the volun-
teers made no complaint and are anx-
ious to have clearances granted the
ship in order that they may proceed
homeward.
The army transport Tartar, which is
reported detained at Hong Kong by the
British authorities, was chartered by
the United States, and is owned by the
Canadian Pacific Steamship company.
She sails under the British flag. 1t is
said that under these conditions she is
subject to the British navigation laws.

Customs Receipts at Santiago Not to he

SANTIAGO DE CUBA, Jan. 2l.-The
United States military authorities in
Havana have cabled the Santiago de.
partment an order directing that not a
cent Of the customs receipts of the de.
partment is to be expended without the
permission Of Governor General Brooke.
The order also directs that the greate,
part OF the sanitary work performed
shall be done without money pay and
for rations merely.
The directions regarding the customs
funds have not yet been made generally
known. AS most people, relying. upon
a recent dispatch from DR.. Joaquin Cas-.
tillo now in Washington, have regarded
this point as definitely settled in favor
Of Santiago, it has been considered ad.
vlsable thus far not to allow the orde,
in question to become public lest there
be a wal of the popular excitement
provoked by the issuance of the original
order for the concentration Of customs

are in possession of the facts, however.
are greatly worried over the situation
themselves, as this and other recent or.
ders virtually reduce the military gov.
ernor of the department to a mere au.
