FINANCIAL.
General Outlook of the Stock
and Money Market For
the Week.
RAILROADS LOOK STRONGEST
During January They Earned Fifteen
Per Cent. More Than Last
Year and There is Every
Reason to Anticipate
Their Continuance.

| The outlook in the stock market for
the coming week is not as bright as it
was week ago. Besides the almost in
expllcable retreats Of the British army
in South Africa, there was an incom-
prehensible bank statement on Satur-
day.
The New York bank statement was
corker, and it made most of the finan-
ciers put on their thinking caps, all
without extracting the slightest grain of
rational probability.
The surplus held is $27, ,897, SIS and the
large increase in loans excited much at
tention.
Concerning earnings, the most impo's,
tant and strongest basis of a good mar
ket, the evidence is all exceptionally
satisfactory. Railroad prosperity is eim-
ply remarkable. In the third week of
January 68 roads earned Is per cent.
more than in 1899, which in itself was a
period of good earnings. The great sys-
TENS, such as Pennsylvania, New York
Central, the Grangers, the Pacifics and
the Coalers, all show handsome gains,
and there is every reason for anticipate
ing their continuance, because the rail-
road draws its income from MANY
sources and is least affected by local con-

basis. Considering that American rail-
roads have had the water well equeezed
out, and that the character of manage
ment never stood higher, there is the
best of reasons for preferring them over
any other popular investment. Another
point in favor of the railroads is that
they. are only beginning to feel the bene-
fit of better rates; in this respect being
behind general trade, and the Indus
trials, which were the fret to benefit.
Activity in the latter has been resumed
and has good basis of reason. The iron
and steel properties are making remark
able profits, as confirmed by reports re-
Gently issued by the leading concerns.
Already there is lees discrimination
against the best industrial issues than
formerly, and some of these will un-
Sdoubtedly yield good profits to early

Sir Redvers Must Keep Beers Before

Hopeful.
BULLER TO ENGAGE JOUBERT

London, Feb. IL. - General Buffers
third failure to pierce the impregnable
Boer line which separates him from the
beleaguered garrison at Ladysmith has
not caused the same degree of public
gloom and despondency as did the former
disastrous attempts. Perhaps this is be-
cause the British public is growing ac-
customed to adversely and expects less of
the generals in the field. There is no
doubt, however, that the conviction is
growing that General Buffers task is
well nigh impossible and that the real re-
lief of Ladysmith will be accomplished a
little later by Field Marshal Lord Rob-
erts and General Lord Kitchener inyad-
ing the Free State.
The indications have increased that the
plan frequently described will soon be
put into operation-namely, that General
Methuen's army will be greatly re-enforc-
ed and will begin the march to Bloemfon-
tein, supported perhaps by a colmun from
the south. Heavy additions of cavalry
and mounted infantry and artillery have
been made in the past few days to the
force at Modder River, and it is generally
believed that Field Marshal Roberts or
General Kitchener, or perhaps both, have
gone to that point.
Beers Must Weaken Somewhere.
Boer forces for the defense of Bloem-
fontein must be drawn chiefly from Gen
eral Joubert's army now opposing Gener-
al Butler. The federal commanders around
Kimberley are insufficient to oppose a
strong British column marching across
the open veldt toward the Free State cap
ital, and it will be impossible to draw
heavily from the Boer forces facing Gen
eral Gatacre.
The Natal frontier, on the other hand,
can be held by small fraction of Gen
eral Joubert's army if he is willing or is
compelled to abandon the siege of Lady
smith. 1t is doubtful if he will do the lat
ter without a final desperate attempt to
capture General White and his men.
General Butler should now be able to
prevent this by keeping up such unremit-
ting activity as will serve, if no other
purpose, to hold a large portion of Cen
eral Joubert's men and guns on the north
ern bank of the Tugela.
Such is the prevailing and on the whole
not unreasonably hopeful English mill
tary view of the latest situation. The ex-
pectation that General Butler would re-
lieve Ladysmith by direct assault has
been abandoned, but the British outlook
does not seem so gloomy as the country
has been inclined TO regard it for month

NEW PLAN OF CAMPAIGN.
spcnser Wilkinson Says the Center
of Activity lis Soon to Shift.

Spcnser Wilkinson Says the Center
of Activity lis Soon to Shift.
London, Feb. 11.-AIr. Spenser Wilkin-
son, the military expert, reviewing the
South African situation, says:
Lord Roberts has now taken hold of
the campaign. His strategy evidently is
to act in the western theater of war with
energy enough to move the center of
gravity thither. General Buller's move
must, therefore, be considered in its place
in general scheme. The idea seems to
be that if General Butler cannot skin the
bear himself he can hold its leg while
some one else does. Accordingly, General
Butler is not to risk his army, but, short
of that, is to give the Beers as much to
do in Natal as he can. His attack of the
past week was hardly carried out with
the push that marks a man resolved to
win or be broken. In any case it is no
easy task to cross a river in order to
pierce the front of an enemy posted be-
yond it. Modern weapons favor an at
tack which envelops n flank, but not an
attack which tries to break the center of
an army.
'"rhe new plan involves prompt and
successful offensive operations against
the Free State forces in the west-a Sc
ries of crushing blows. Any failure in
their execution would leave the campaign
in q perilous state, for the Beers would
then hold on to Ladysmith, which moth
ing but disasters in the west and the GER
tainty of more to follow will make them
let so. But Lord Roberts is a strong
man, with big heart, n resolute will and
clear head. His presence with British
army has a magnetic effect, and when he
moves he will probably make the Beers
move. He has re-enforced Methuen with
a cavalry brigade and horse artillery, and
there is probably an infantry division to
follow.
Looking at General Buffers action by
itself, the impression it makes recalls
General Mcclellan, who, though cautious
and knowing how to preserve his army,
hardly ever displayed the initiative power
to run risks and the self reliance of a
great commander. To all appearance
General Butler has given up his third at
tempt before his attack was fully devel-
oped.
"A telegram from Lourenco Marques
speaks of a sortie from Ladysmith in the
night of Thursday to Friday. Such an
attempt of General White to cut his way
out was probable, and may succeed,
though the nature of modern weapons is
against him, and there would be heavy
loss, and many stragglers would be cut
off.
''The likelihood of General Whites try
ing to fight his way out would explain the
reticence of the war office. 1t would also
explain the demonstration from Chieve-
ley, of which we have heard only through
Boer telegram"

ANOTHER RED MAN MISSING.
Delaware Members of the Order Re-
quested to Join the Search.

A communication from the Great
Council of Colorado in reference to a
missing and prominent Red Man of that
State has been received by Great Chief
OF Records George @. Guthrie of Della
ware Great Council. This is the second
Red Man who has been advertised for
within the last moon.
The first one was E. NJ. Sadler of Man
chester, Va, who left his home for the
purpose OF finding work in Wilmington.
He was found through the efforts of the
Improved Order of Red Men and through
the columns of THE Sun.
The man now being sought is ]. A.
Powell, of Powhattan Tribe, No. 60, of
Ouray, Colorado, and well-to-do law
yer of that city.
The letter received by Chief Guthrie is
as follows:
"We the members of the Great Coun-
Gil of Colorado, desire your assistance in
our efforts to clear up the mysterious
disappearance of Brother ]. A. Powell,
Great Guard of the Forest, and men,
ber of Powhattan Tribe, No. 60 of Ouray,
Colorado, who has been missing since
the 22d, Sun of Cold Moon, G. S. d. 400.
Brother Powell is an attorney-at-law
and had luxurious practice. He had
ehO Chgoy hcubs VI Ndppy nome and
had no financial embarassments, and
we are, therefore, anxious as to his
whereabouts and welfare.
In giving your assistance in this mat
ter you will not only do US great favor,
but will wipe away the tears of sorrow
from the eyes of a beloved wife.
"The following is description of
Brother Powell, as near as we are able to
give it: About 5 feet, IL inches high, and
of slender build, with the appearance of
an Enlishman; wore sandy beard, when
last seen, which was closely cut, and a
heavy moustache; blue eyes; a genteel
appearance and manner of gentleman
complete the ensemble. He also wore a
new suit of clothes, the color or style of
which we are unable to give.
Brother Red Men are again asked to
give us all the assistance they can, and
any information leading to the where
abouts of Brother Powell will be greatly
appreciated by the entire order of the
State and his wife and children"
