An unexpected showing OF strength was
made by the stock market yesterday after
noon. During the entire early part of the
day, and until after 2 O'Clock, in fact,
business was almost at a standstill, and
prices had not made any changes worth
mentioning, but there began during the
last hour good advance in Sugar which
seemed to help the entire list. Burlington,
which had been strong all day, also spurted
quickly point or more. The changes
varied much, but were nearly all advances
for the day. The close was near the top.
The street has seen a number OF such
spurts In prices recently, and they have
all resolved themselves into very weak
recoveries from equally weak declines It
has been a professional market of the
worst kind, uninteresting and improbable
For this reason traders were not inclined
to attach much Importance to yesterday 8
little bnoyant half hour, and perhaps they
were rightfully sheptical of its developing
into anything more important than a two
or three point rally. few enthusiastic
bulls call attention to the many excellent
factors in the situation, and express the
belief that the movement will be of more
consequence. This is. of course possible
Intrinsic conditions in the end exert their
influence. and 1t is certain that the pres

the stock market.

INTEREST IN COLER'S FATE
MANY POLITICIANS HERE THINK
CROKER WILL NOW TAKE UP
THE CONTROLLER.

There were few Democratic politicians in the
city yesterday. but those who were here anxIouslv
watched for news from Saratoga, where the Hill
and Croker forces met in a contest for control of
the State CoLamittee. When word reached here
that Hill had been routed many inclined to the be-
lief that this ended the Coler BOOM and that the
Controller was not to be longer regarded as a
factor in the contest for the nomination for Gov
eTnor Others wagged their heads and said this
defeat of Hill demonstrated that Croker was the
real State leader and that Croker. having shown
this, would turn around and take up Coler These
politicians argued that what Croker wanted above
everything else was 10 humiliate Hill and after
that TO elect a Governor They contended that
Croker had accomplished his first object by de-
featng Hill in the State Committee and demon
strating his power. and having done this he could
without loss of strength or apparent weakening
take up Coler as the strongest candidate to noni-
nate. 1t developed tangled situation and no one
seemed to have coherent idea as to just how It
would eventuate.
Controller CoIer did not come to the city vester-
Gay, but sent word TO mis- office that he would re.
main at liberty until next week. The Tanmanv
leaders are making anxious inquiries about Mr.
Coler's movements. There is no doubt that a
great many would Ike TO see him nominated for
Governor for ne is popular with nearly all the
Tammany district leaders, but they fear all hope

COLORADO FOR M'KINLEY.
REASONS FOR THINKING THE SILVER
STATE WILL DESERT BRYAN.

Cleveland Aug. 16 CSpeciaD. James
Rice former Secretary of State of Colorado.
who is temporarily residing in Cleveland. is
firmly convinced that Colorado. which in 1896
was Overwhelmingly for W. J. Bryan. will this
year desert the champion of free silver and will
be found near the head Of the list of Republican
States In an interview to-day Captain Rice
stated that there were many indications Of
general breakup in the ranks OF the free silver
or Teller Silver Republican party in Colorado.
and that thousands OF the Republicans who
supported Bryan four years ago were coming
back into the ranks of the straight Re
publican party and would vote for Mckinley
In the opinion of Captain Rice, the resignation
Of A. NJ. stevenson as chairman OF the Teller
Silver Republican State Central Committee will
result in the utter dissolution If the free silver
party in that State He said:
Mr.. Stevenson. or Steve as every one calls him
in Colorado. is a strong political leader, and one
of the most popular young men in the State. I

Captain Rice to-day received copy of Mr..
Stevensons letter of resignation, in which the
free silver Republican sets forth his reasons for
resgnng and for returning to the Republican
ranks. Portions of Mr.. Stevenson's letter are
as follows:
am an expansionst; believe in the greater
greatness of this country. l have no patience for
the party who accepts the word OF an adventurous
Asiatic renegade in preference to that Of Admiral
Dewey and who continuously encourages this ig-
norant rebellion by putting bad motives behind
every good of the Government at Washington
Our country's flag means something to me. IN
my childhood my father fought for it, that it might
always remain the emblem of a united and liberty
loving country and that its blessings might be be-
queathed to his children 1t is my Inheritance
The Silver Republicans Of Colorado have always
declared that they were eXpanSlOnistS and they
believed with Senator Teller when he said in the
Senate of the United States:
Where the American soldier dies and is buried.

will stay, and will grapple with the great prob

or not, and try it; If we fail it will be the first
time that the Anglo-Saxon race has failed when

the interests of their own people and the world.

AYES

The meeting OF the chairmen of the Demo-
cratic County committees followed in the same
ballroom. 1t a secret meeting, however,
and nothing is known of It beyond the fact that
Mr. MCGUIRE has adopted the school district
plan Of organizing the State.
Mr.. Mcclure declined tonight to make any
comment upon the conflict over him at the
meeting of the Democratic State Committee.
Mr. Danforth expressed the opinion that the
movement in favor Of the nomination OF Mr.
Coler for Governor at the Democratic State
Convention was stronger than ever. Perry Bel
mont gave out statement tonight 10 his
vote on the proposition to make Mr Mcclure
temporary chairman Of the Democratic State
Committee. 1t was follows
When the proposition was submitted to me I
said l thought II a good idea to give the tenn
porary chairman OF the Convention ample time
TO prepare his speech and said I would vote
for II But when the subject was presented
to the committee and took the turn ii did and
after listening TO the vigorous debate that II
excited, stated that did not think Mr., Dan
forth offered the resolution for the purpose OF
creating any division. I declared that thought
IT time for the Democracy of the State TO begin
the effective work OF the campaign, and re-
quested Mr.. Danforth to withdraw his motion
and l voted against il.
MURPHY CHIDEs DANFORTH.
Ex-senator Edward Murphy. jr. speaking Of
tonight, said: 1T was very unfortunate that
such resolution that of Mr. Danforth
should have been introduced at this time when
we are all trying to get together for Bryan I
knew nothing Of the plan until 7 reached the
door OF room where the meeting was held
When told Of ii l regarded II a Joke. I
think Mr.. Hill made grave mistake We are
all fond Of Mr.. Mcclure; many Of the members
Of the State Committee who would have acted
with US generally voted for Mr.. Mcclure be-
cause Of this sentiment OF regard for him"
At this moment Elliot Danforth happened TO
come Mr.. Murphy, who said TO him:
Elliot, why did you try to work that bunco
game us2'
1T was bunco game" answered Mr.. Dan
forth. we thought Mr.. Mcclure would make a
most desirable chairman of the State Conven-
ton. You did not seem to agree with u.s.
Why, you tried to make us humiliate Mr..
Mcclure" said Mr. Murphy.
The scheme for humiliating a certain leader
began at Kansas City" answered Mr.. Danforth.
thinking of the way David B. Hill was pre-
vented by Mr. Murphy and Mr.. Croker from
becoming member of the Committee on Reso-
lutions. Mr.. Murphy did not continue the con-
versation.
