The stock market yesterday was some
what erratic, but on the whole fairly
strong. The opening was on a par with
Tuesdays close after which there was a
good advance all over the list to the best
prices of the week. Early IN the after
noon there was slump on bear pressure,
accompanied by rumors that an fmpor-
tant stock exchange house had failed.
During the last half hour of the day
there was another rally on talk of much
better strike situation. The close was
in most cases about where the day be-
gan. One or two securities were excep-
tione to the general strength, among
them Northern Pacific and Metropolitan
Business was not particularly active, and
the day cannot be said to have been i'm
portant In any way. The bears do not
sell with nearly the aggressiveness they
showed few days ago, but on the othsr
hand the large interests do not as yet
show any desire to advance prices
There is fairly good investment buying
Of the railway securities at all times,
but II Is thought quite possible that this
important people are willing to have
prices stay al the present low level for
time in order that this buying may be
made to the best advantage. The outlook
is excellent for investments, as prices
are far below values. This fact is recog-
pized by the best people in the market
Surface fluctuations are likely to be con-
trolled for the present by news of the
strike situation.
Northern Pacific common stock was
the weak feature Of the day II showed
no particular strength at any time, and
there was heavy selling for both ac-
counts during the afternoon The state
ment Of President Melien in the annual
report OF the company just published was
pessimistic. II intlmated very strongly
that the outlook for business Is poor, and
t:sat earnings viii be likely to decrease
during :!a.s coming months. The street
is inclined 10 resent any such talk by a
railway president regarding his own com
pany as uncnlied for and calculated to d
much damage 10 its securities. This
Meiien statement was made the excuge
for the attack on the stock. There IS, of
course. the real bear factor that this stock
IS selling at much higher price COM
pared with its dividend than Union Pa
ciiic common or Atchison preferred. And

Metropolitan Traction sold ''ex'' dividend
/ 81 yesterday. 1t opened strong, but
later sold off rather badly. the low price
being 143 3-4. The close al 145 1-2 showed
little net movement for the day, taking
the dividend off. Brooklyn Rapid Transit
was strong on what seemed TO be support
ing orders from insiders, and on covering
induced by this support. 1t advanced at
the close TO 40 3-S. Many people who have
watched the stock closely during the past
week do not believe that 1t will decline
much If any below the price made on Tue.-

also it is not to be disputed that the poor
whea; crop in the section through which
the Northern Pacific runs gives good
basis for President Mellen's statement.
The low price reached yesterday was
46 1-2, and the close at Il SIS showed
heavy net decline. Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific held their own, but Mis-
souri, Pacific declined a point in sympa-
thy with Northern Pacific, on the theory
perhaps, that this stock. too. is selling
pretty high for a nom dividend payer.

The grangers were strong nearly all
day. They made new high figures for the
week in the morning and despite some sell
ing in the early afternoon, closed with
net gains. The excellent st. Paul earnings
statement for August, taken in connection
with the weekly gross earnings statement,
made a bull argument on this stock that
was not lost sight of. The monthly state
ment figures were as follows: Gross in
crease, $21S000; net increase, $685. 500.
These figures are in every way satisfac-
tory. They were a complete surprise 10
most people in the street and a great dis
appointment to the bears who have been
counting on a poor statement from the
company to help them push down the prices
of the grangers. St Paul yesterday sold
as high as liz 3-S and closed at 112 Ia
Rock Island got as high as los and closed
at 104 SIS. Burlington sold as high as
122 and closed at 121 "a. Atchison pre-
ferred went up to SIS SIS at one time and
closed at 6S 3-S. The outlook for the gran
ger group as a whole seems especially
good, but Atchison preferred and St Paul
are for the moment the favorites among
the investment public.

The anthracite coal securities were
doomed handsomely during the late after
neon yesterday on the rumor generally
circulated that the strike situation was
much better. The story generally told
was, in fact. that the strike was in the
process of settlement. This was too strong
statement for the facts, but undoubtedly
the situation is better than the street
has considered il for several days. Read
ing first preferred advanced TO 81 ga from
% 81 at the opening. 1t closed at 81
SIS Jersey Central doomed in much the
same way as it did two or three months
ago. when the street was most bIllish re-
garding it. The opening was at 12S 81
and the low price Of the day LIS. From
this level it advanced to 131 and closed at
the top. Ontario and Western also show
ed strength.

the practical part of the work, and
it should be taken in hand, with
out delay. While no direct inter-
vention in politics should be at
tempted, there must be an intelli-
gent and tireless effort to work
upon public sentiment, until both
the great political parties should
be driven to espouse the peoples
cause, and show their faith by
their works. In this government,
nothing can Withstand the reason
and the consciences of the masses.
The average man still holds the
destiny of this nation in the hol-
low of his hand. There can be no
doubt as to the ultimate fate of
the monopolies, since they ''live
and move and have their being
in the nefarious absorption of the
fruits of toll.

Probably the most disgraceful
thing in Topeka is the fight among
the undertakers. Recently two
undertakers got into such a fight
over a corpse that it was taken to
the courts for settlement, and a
more disgraceful affair happened
last night. A child died of small
pox (called chickenpox in Topeka
papers), and the city ordered that
it be buried at 8 p. m. The un-
dertaker was engaged by the fam
lily, 6when he appeared at 8 p
m, he found that the body had
been already buried by a rivaI
firm, which represented itself to
the parents as the firm engaged

The Anti Trust Meeting.
Tin.es-Democrat.

Tin.es-Democrat.
The Antitrust meeting, held at
Tulane Hall last night under the
auspices of the ladies' of the Arena
Club, left no doubt as to the senti-
ment of the people of New Or
leans, on the burning question of
the hour. All classes and all
creeds were worthily represented,
and the clergy lent the great
weight OF their saction to the peo-
pies cause. The audience was of
the kind which most deeply i'm
presses the Intelligent observer of
the trend of public opinion; for it
was easy tQ see that every person
there present had vital stake in
the Commonwealth.
No words could do justice to the
sublimity ard persuasive power of
DR.. Palmer's address. One must
stand in the personal presence of
this grand old man." grown gray
in the service of his people and
his God, in order TO fully take in
the imperial scope of his thought.
In these days of slip-shod Eng-
lish. it is an Incompatible plea
sure to hear the accents of our an
cestral speech, as they come from
the lips of an acknowledged mas
ter. DR.. Palmer handled the
question of the trusts from the lof-
test standpoint. Indeed, the
issue, in his conception, marks the
point at which the lines of poll
tics and the lines of morals con-
verge. In such case, the great
est preacher is the greatest politi-
clan, as well.
In the unavoidable absence of
two other distinguished Mississip-
plans, the Right Reverend Hugh
Miller Thompson made a very
happy address, in which were min
gled the wit and the learning
which have made him q leader of
men.

New York, Jan. ga special
to the World from Washington
says:
President Mckinley has deter
mined to submit to the new Phi
lippines commission the question
of the disposition of the church
property in the Archipelago. The
commission will consult with the
municipal officials relative to
the action to be taken and the sta
tus of the friars who remain in
the islands will also be determin-
ed. At the time the administra-
ton will have to decide what shall
be done with church property in
the island of Puerto Rico and the
claims of the Catholic clergy both
there and in the Philippines for
the continuation of the support
they received from the government
of Spain and which, the clergy as
sert, is guaranteed them by the
Parts of treaty.
These questions are embarrass-
ing to the administration, espe-
cially as they are raised on the
eve of the presidential campaign,
and there is no desire on the part
of officials to take any action which
might be offensive to the Catholic
voters of America.
While no formal plans have
been formulated, Gen. Davis un-
derstands that claims to certain
property in San Juan will be made
by the Catholic clergy.
