board of education's S room IN
the Court House. Sometime
between last Saturday night
and Monday morning some
misCreant or mlsCreantS
prized the doors leading to

for the purpose, it is reason
ably supposed, of dabbllng
with the registration books.
But they didn t find the books.
The registrars had them in a
more secure place. 1t was a
bold act, and one calculated to
make it very unhealthy around
here for the person or persons
caught in it.

1t was reported that the Argentine plague

The cash demand was slack. May eased

tract. Atlantic ports clearances in wheat

Corn opened easy, had a spasm of firm

due to the taking of speculative profits,

In today's market the bears started to
cover their short contracts after the
bank statement, and worked a sharp
rally Some stocks were attacked anew In
the final dealings, making the close IL
regular but the list was firm at the rally.
The bears found Pacific Mail Vulnerable
to further attacks, and had some success
with Peoples Gas. but Third Avenue Of
fered some resistance. A large selling or

that stock was offered down 112. causing
sympathetic declines In a number OF 9TH
