THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York. April 2O.-Most stocks
today gravitated slightly below yes
terday's level. Influences affecting
prices were the continued strength and
rising prices of sterling exchange, and
representatives reports of damage to
winter wheat. accompanied by strength
in the wheat market. There was some
show of strength about the opening,
but the small outside demand encour-
aged the bears to put out short lines,
the selling movement being most con-
fdent around delivery hour.
The impression on values was not
very large, as a rule, and covering
movement left the net changes for the
day moderate. Trading was of list
less sort, and, although the dealings
were about half A million shares, little
interest was manifested in the uncer-
tain vibrations of stocks, except for the
grangers, which were sensitive to crop
advices. The railways generally moved
within narrow limits Anaconda Min
ing advanced 61a, the purchases being
in some volume for London account,
where the demand was reported to be
to cover sales of privileges which would
be called.
Among the specialties, Continental
Tobacco dipped Sharply, closing nearly
points off The Flower stocks were
under pressure, but left off with narrow
changes either way.

After the first hour, the market as
sumed more favorable appearance,
and a few shares scored good advances,
including Brooklyn Transit, which more
than regained its opening loss. The
coal shares were in better demand than
for a long time, and showed decided
strength on the more favorable trade
situation. On the other hand, CONT

The wheat news was bullish this morn
ing and the sentiment on the situation
was bullish also but considerable profit
taking took place at the start; the trou-
bic seem to be that, although the adVices
as to crop damage were all very radical,

comparison with the private advices re-
ceived a few days ago. Liverpool opened

bushels less than last year. The Kansas

GENERAL GOMEZ WITHDRAWS.
Governor Brooke Will Forcibly Disarm
the Cuban Soldiers II Necessary.

Governor Brooke VIII Eorctbly Disarm
the Cuban Soldiers II Necessary.
HAVANA, Cuba (By Cable).-General
Maxine Gomez informed Governor-General
Brooke that he must withdraw from the
plan for distributing the $4,000, 900 appro.
priated to the payment otthe Cuban troops
TO the extent that he will not name other
Commissioners to replace those originally
named by him, who have refused to serve.
General Gomez added that he had mr.
rived at this decision with great reluctance
and with the most friendly feelings toward
General Brooke personally and officially,
but he felt that cabul, composed OF many
of the subordinate commanders, existed
to oppose, and, II possible, defeat the plans
for apportioning the money. BE explained
that former members OF the Cuban Military
Assembly, led by Mayia Rodriguez, Manuel
Ssnguily, Juan Gaulberto and other NAL
contents, had, apparently, organized d
majority OF the officers against him.
General Brooke expressed sympathy
with Gomez, and said he regretted the po-
sition he had taken, but, the American
commander added, II the decision was ~.
chanSsable, he would proceed to deal With
the question alone.
General Brooke Is determined not to be
triaed with. BE has the rolls Of the pr!-
Yates aEd ion: commissioned officers, who
are willing to accept 575 each, and this
amount will be offered oa the conditions
previously laid down. A torclble disarma-
ment of the Cuban troops will be the ulti-
mate procedure, provided the events OF the
next two or three weeks chow that sue2
action Is necessary.

It was understo cd the United States Gov.

NEGRO MURDERER AT BAY.
Hs Kills Ono Policeman and Wounds An
other In Maryland.

OIn0I III
WASHINGTON, D. C. Especially. .-Humph-
rey Taylor, negro suspected OF the Rosen'
stein murder at slIdell, MI, shot and
killed Police Sergeant Fritz Passaui
wounded Policeman Gow, and kept posse
OF half dozen officers at bay from the Lett
Of house nearly two hours. Dozens o,
shots were exchanged between tine otHcers
aud the fugitive, who only surrendered
when preparations were made TO burn the
house.
When questioned by the policein regard
to the Rosenstein murder the prisoner be-
came much confused in his replies, and
told half dozen different stories. He said
that man named Brown had committed
the murder, and that he waited on the out
side and kept watch, receiving $50 fro N
Brown. On searching the house the police
found S192 and a gold watch and chain
where he had secreted them. He had a
diamond ring and small sum OF money
on his person. His conflicting stories as to
his movements and where he obtained the
money led the police to believe he Is the
man tie Maryland authorities are looking
for. It Is probable, however, that he will
be detained by the district authorities md
tried for the murder OF Sergeant Passau.
