STATE DOnQS inactive.
Railroad bonds irregular.
The demand for stocks to-day was so
large, so urgent and so widely dis
tributed as to suggest a recrudescence
of the bullish enthusiasm of the period
Immediately following the election.
The motives of this buying and the
strength o. the whole market were
somewhat mysterious.
The anthracite group had its own
particular cause of strength in the cir
cumstantial assertions of the passing
control of the Pennsylvania Coal Com
pany to the Erie railroad and the
consequent Illustration of the plan for
a new railroad from the coal regions
to TideWater to satisfy the ideas of the
Independent operators regarding trans
portation rates. The threatened con-
struction OF this road has long ben a
bugbear to the anthracite companies
and the adjustment of anthracite af-
fairs involved in the abandonment of
this plan would be of great import
ance, as was plainly shown by the
buOyancy of all the stocks in the group
No authoritative confirmation could be
had of the reports current, but the
record of the tape was strongly con-
firmatory. New Jersey Central was
an early exception to the strength of
the group, but recovered later The
Erie stocks and Ontario & Western.
as being most Immediately affected by
the threatened competition, led off in
the movement. Later in the day the
Reading stocks assumed the leadership
and were absorbed in enormous blocks
up to the close OF the market. The
gains in the group ran from one to
three points. This movement was the
mainstay of the market, but the gem
eral strength was too striking to be
explained as a sympathetic movement
There was some demand for London
account on the opening of q new &C
count incident to the settlement, but
this buying is called professional arbi-
TRACE operation and may originate eth
er in New York or London. The most
marked effect was produced on South
ern Pacific, which opened up IL and
advanced later to 40. closing at the
highest. The belief has prevailed in
Wall street that there was a very
heavy short account in some of the
railroad stocks for which western spec
ulators were liable, the speculation
extending also in the steel stocks.
The bear account in the latter group
has been aimed at by the advance this
week and may have been reached in
the railroad group to-day.
The money market outlook contin-
ues threatening so that the SUPPOSE
ton is aroused that to-day's buying
is for the account of financial inter-
ests which are Independent of the or
binary resources of the money mar
ket. The transfers OF currency through
the sub-treasury to New Orleans reach
ed $550,000 to-day, which is the larg-
est sum of any day in the recent

The Republicans Of kennebec.

That the Republican party OF TINS

demonstrated at the convention held IN

exceptionally enthusiastic and har-
monious. The men placed in nominal

county in every department have been
faithfully and ably cared for under
Republican rule and the citizens of the

solid and secure as the granite of its
biIIs. and its future is as certain as is
the onward course OF our river.
Yesterdays convention was most
auspicious opening of the campaign,
and the good work begun at the con-
vention will be splendidly cohsum-
mated at the polls. 1t is great Re-
publican year in county, State and
nation and kennebec will honor itself
by giving the strong list Of candidates

Tammany's Ice Trust.

The cheap hypocracy of Democracy
claim that it is the antitrust party,
| has never been questioned by thinking
people. and recent events in the ma
tons metropolis have laid bare this
hypocracy in a most startling and
significant manner. The publication of
the list of shareholders of the ice trust
not only shows that this most cruelty
oppressive of all monopolies is fostered
by Tammany. but that Tammany is
directly responsible for it, This most
corrupt and vicious of all political or
CARNATIONS furnishes from its leaders
the men who control the monopoly that
is causing untold suffering in the great
city Mayor Van Wyck, Richard
Croker John F. Carroll, Martin Mahon,
Hugh Grant, Thomas F. Gilroy, and
John ID. Crimmins are among the larg
Van Wyck. Brother Augustus" who
formulated that famous Tammany de-
liverance against trusts, is we'll sup
Piled with stock.
1t is quite possible that the exposure
may cost Mayor Van Wyck his Office,
and more, too. The American Ice
Company has made contracts with and
leased docks from the city. The charter
says explicitly that any municipal Off
;,,+a
any such corporation doing business
with the city, shall, upon conviction,
forfeit his office and be punished for
misdemeanOr. Governor Roosevelt has
been asked to suspend Mayor Van
Wyck and send him before special
jury. This is likely to be done, though
the governor is proceeding cautiously
in the matter, that no mistake may be
made. There will be some recompense
to the people OF New York for the ex
istence of the ice trust, if it is the
means Of the removal of that insignili-
cant puppet, Robert the Testy, from
the great office he disgraces.
In view of all this, how much like
80 cents" appear the antitrust
pIotestations Of Tammany and other
Democratic organizations. The in
sincerity of the party in the whole
antitrust agitation is disclosed in a
manner that the people will not forget.
The attempt of the men who rule New
York to plumber it by the Cruelist kind
of extortion. ought to cause an up
| rising in that city which shall hurl
Tammany from power and keep it in
odium through long years to come.
