WALL STREET GOSSIP-Strong, Stur-
gis q Co. TO H. HOlbert q Son: Market
today has certainly b en- disapp ointm mt
after the hopes OF strength that had been
built on the prices which came from
London. Market has been lacking in
support, and, while there seemed for a
time TO be enough covering by the shorts
10 Withstand the drives, about noon the
market gave way all along the line. In
Sugar the rise in the price Of the COM
modify has given the insiders an oppor-
tunlty to sell out some OF their holdings,
an opportunity which they have taken
advantage of to the fullest extent. The
sudden rise in 3. r. I. has also been
met with further selling by the larger
short interests. While there seems to be
no immediate prospects of commission
purchases in the railway list, the fl ct
remains that at this writing L. P, y. p.
preferred. Atchison preferred, l. h. &,
". preferred and all of the stocks of
that character which are netting well
over . per cent must soon be looked upon
by the public as very cheap at these
prices. =. q .. common has been tar
set Tor the bears on the continued belief
on the board that there is no hope of
a dividend this summer. although this
belief is well founded among the traders.
there are those on the inside who still
nave faith that psr cent will be de-
clared, and the result on this would, we
think, be a sharp rally in this stock"

Around the fire place I'm the room, which

In the building are 1900 to 1900 rooms,

Sunday School Excursion to the Dis
reputable Resort Condemned--A
Woman Assaulted by ToughS.

II the ministers OF East Providence lack
The courage of their convictions and dare
not strike right from the shoulder In the
odious Crescent Park matter, II Is re-

men have a little more stamina.
There is one In particular. Rev. Henry
Bassett. rector OF the Church of the
Epiphany, who has some very pronounced
views about Crescent Park and does not
hesitate to score Sunday school that
picnics there.
The occasion for Rev. Mr.. Bassett's re-
marks originated with the announce
ment that the Brownell street mission
Sunday schoN of Fall River made an ex-
cursion +, the notorious '.Coney Island

They went to this rendezvous OF fakirs
and gamblers of the lowest order, even
after the News, as well as others. warned
the superintendent, j. Clarence Reed,
what the consequences would be.
RIGHTEOUS INDIGNATION.
The anticipated result has occurred.
II has stirred UP righteous indigna-
zion In the breasts OF all true Christians.
The News Is already I'm receipt OF Wig
proach Rev. Mr.. Bassett's, which we
print below, for righteous, unswerving
loyalty TO principle.
It must appeal to every reader as an
1ndisputable argument for decency, es-
pecially at Crescent Park.
Rev. Mr.. Bassett fears and justly. too,
that the disgrace attaching to the town
OF East Providence will be increasingly
Ielt az the months roll by.
The News has produced and can pro-
uuce any quantity Of evidence to that
End right In East Providence.
PERHAPS THEY WILL FEEL PROUD.
After reading Rev Mr.. Bassett's letter,
The members Of the East Providence town
council and Manager Boyden may feel
proud OF themselves, perhaps.
BY the same token. those who took In
the Sunday school outing at Boyden's
probably feel ashamed that they were
lured to such an unwholesome place.
