Sympathy With the London Market

Foreign Houses ARpear AS Sellers of

York Central Opens Strong ON
News of the Issue of New Stock.
Active Trading I'm the IndustriaIs.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.-Chiefly in sympa-
thy with the tendency of the London stock
market the early trading today had rath-
er reactionary tendency The depression
in the London market was owing both to
the serious position of the British forces
in South Africa, and also to the announce
ment of the financial measures for the
prosecution OF hostilities which was made
in Parliament yesterday. Upon the OPEN
ing of business here foreign houses appear
ed as sellers Of moderate amount Of
stocks. 1c
The most important news over night was
that of the issue of SIS GOO, 900 new stock by
the New York Central Company for the
purpose of providing new equipment and
for other measures. The stock will be is
sued to shareholders of record at par and
it was calculated this morning that the
privilege was worth about per cent. New
York Central opened strong on this news
and also on account of it's remarkably
good statement for the first quarter of the
fiscal year which showed net earnings in
excess of 24 per cent.
The United States Leather shares were
again heavily dealt in and scored further
advances, the trading being apparently
based upon the progress of the scheme for
the adjustment of the company's capitali-
cation. Brooklyn Rapid Transit was also
very active and reflected new pressure. A
conspicuous feature of the market was
Anaconda Mining which broke abruptly IL
points at the opening of business. The
dealings in ST. Paul and in the other stand
ard issues were active, but the price chang
es were comparatively small. Aside from
the Leather stocks Suger Refining was the
conspicuous feature of the industrial group,
but the stock moved in line with the gen.
eral market.

The hearing In the suit of Herman Fried
lander against the Washington Post"
Company for $4,000, claimed as damages

to pay fine of IS, eco.
The information upon which these state
ments were made by the Post were FUR

suit for damages is based alleged that the
plaintiff at one time conducted clothing

der had trouble in getting his insurance for

not convicted of the offence, and that at the
trial the presiding judge Instructed the jur!
which heard the testimony to return YER
Diet of not guilty and tax the costs of the
case against the county.
Ii was also shown in the testimony that
before leaving Alexandria the plaintiff dis
posed of his stock OF goods by an advertised
closing OUT sale, and then came to Wash
ing. From here he went to Altoona TO be-
come clerk in a store conducted there by
his brother. II was also shown that it was
after the publication, of the article in the
Post" that the plaintiff was charged with
being connected with the burning Of his
brothers store in Altoona, Pa.
The plaintiff is represented by j. j. OAR
