General Outlook of the Stock
and Money Market for
the Week.
PROMISES To BE A GOOD ONE
A Strong Surplus Reserve, Troops TO
be Sent to South Africa and
Many For efgn Orders for
War Supplies Tend to
Make Market Strong.

The outlook for this weeks market is
very good. 1t sh Auld be strong one for
several reasons. & The surplus reserve
held by the banks of New York city is
$50. S7l ,275, and it is considered an ex-
cellent surplus. Again an unlimited
n1mber of troops are to be cent by Eng
land to South Africa, which is very en-
couraging to the fearful buyer.
The most profitable opportunities are
likely to be found in many of the low
priced issues which have gone through
the reorganizigg process, and, through
the improvement in business, have be-
come or promised to become dividend
payers In these speculation is likely to
become more active with advancing
prices. A few of the better class of in
dustrias are also likely to receive more
attention now that monetary conditions
have improved. All the unfavorable
elements in the market have been ex-
posed and discounted, recovery is now
in order, and in the absence of unfavor-
able elements continued improvement
can be looked for.
When the South African war broke
out money was very active and scarce in
this country, caused by the drain for
crop moving purposes and to pay for
sales OF stocks ON London account, SO
that we were threatened with the taking
away of our gold in payment therefor.
The war was then considered a bad thing
Tor us for that reason. Now that London
has no longer an important quantity of
our stocks in speculative bonds that can
.e dumped upon US, and the money for
moving the crops has returned to this
centre, instead Of the South African war
being any detriment to us, its effect will
be the reverse. AS an evidence of this a
large number Of English agents are now
in the West buying up all the mules and.
horses they can get, and large orders for
war supplies are aleo in our markets, and
the longer the aap lasts, the longer we
will be called upon to furnish them-
Therefore, the South African war will
henceforth be an absolute benefit to nur
productions, to our transportation COM
panies and to onr merchants.

San Juan, Porto Rico, Feb. 4.-The
installation into Office of the newly elected
city officials has taken place. Mayor
Egozcue, who was the Republican candi-
date, refuses to accept the salary of his
Office and announces that he will devote

The city council now stands ten Repub-
licans and five Federals. The election
laws entitle the minority party to one

chicago's Prolonged strike.

Chicago, Feb. 4.-The prolonged strike
and lockout of piano makers which has
been in progress for the past 1914 weeks
will go on record as one of the most
stubbornly contested fights that have ever
taken place in Chicago between capital
and labor. The manufacturers contend
that it is not a question of wages, but
that they propose to run their own bust
ness and will accept no dictation from
the union. The men say the greatest
barrier in the way of a settlement has
been the wage question-that the manu-
facturers refuse to grant a nine hour
workday and allow ten hours pay. The
loss to the men in the matter of wages
already amounts to S1000,000, while the
loss to the manufacturers will reach
50, 800 900 or So, 600, 900 more.

'rhe Butteray's Pocket.

The male butterflies have the proud
privilege of pocket, but the pocket of
a butterfly is wonderfully made. 1t is
really an extension of the under wing
folded back on the upper side. but it is
eXquisitely colored and marked like the
upper side. so that II is very hard to
detect, and no one has yet discovered
just how 1t is opened. although un
doubtedly the butterfly can throw IL
open while he is flying. +.
AT first glance there seems to be only
white or amber colored silk floss with
in, but examine this with a microscope
and you will find twisted ribbons. slen-
der rods shaped like a shepherds
crook, others jointed bamboolike and
flexible rods and tiny scales of various
sorts and patterns.
II is known that insects have mar
velously keen scent. and It is believed
that all these odd little objects are per-
fume boxes and that the fragrance so
thrown abroad Is a signal call to the
female butterfly. which may be wan
dering about in the air. 1t is. to say
the least, very interesting guess, and
there is evidence to prove that butter
flies and moths are summoned from
distances by odors that we would hard

The American Association Gets am
Injunction Against the League.
Baltimore, Feb. 4.-Another step in the
local baseball war between the National
League and American Association was
taken here in the form of an injunction
prohibiting the League from interfering
in any manner with the Associations
lease of Union park, on which the Ma
tional League has heretofore played its
games. The injunction, which IS only
temporary, was granted by Judge Stock
bridge in circuit court No. 2, conditioned
upon the filing of the bond of $1,000 by
the Association, and was obtained upon
a petition filed by Sans & Johnson, at
torneys for the Association, setting forth
the fact that the Association has leased
the grounds in dispute and that the Bal
timore Baseball and Exhibition compu-
ny. which is the legal name of the "Ori-
oles," threatens to remove or to cause to
be removed the grand stand, fences and
other improvements upon the grounds.
1t will be recalled that the Association
stole march on the local League club
and leased Union park for $500 a year
last month while President Hanlon was
absent and without his knowledge. Ham
Ion has since declared that he would take
away all the improvements, which would
seriously cripple the new club. Should
the injunction be made permanent the
Orioles" will find some difficulty in se-
curing a new home in time for the OPEN

Assumptionists in Paris,

The Assumptionist fathers have led such ascetic lives that they have Preserved. even added to. their great wealth, and they are to a man unfriendly ito tine republic. They are highly reactionary. They belong in French politics to the reacttonary clericals, and they have it seems. shown their anti republican zeal to such an extent that the government has begun to prosecute them Some of the fathers are In jail.
 Cardinal Richard, archbishop of Paris, recently visited them in jail, taking occa- sion to express sorrow at their conviction. The cardinal has disclaimed political sig nificance in his visit. He even says that he had no intention of protesting against the verdict and from Rome comes the in telligence that the pope regards the visit of Cardinal Richard to the jail as inop- portune. He does not regard the interests of the church at stake, and fntima tions are given out that high clerieals. even a car dinal, will be reproved if they indulge in demonstrations against the republic.
 The case is but additional evidence of the good sense that is a characteristic of Pope Leo XIII. He has invariably leaned to- wards the people. and away from autocrat- ic- or even monarchial power He has brought the Chair of St. Peter up to the times in which he lives. It was wandering about aimlessly when the present pope was seated in it, and it will be for pontin is man of equally liberal and enlightened views.

 The debauching of the electorate is pro- eeedng, it seems. too. The plutocrats of whom the flying squadron is composed have money to burn. and they are burning vast quantities of it. No one In Alabama could be induced to believe that Senator Morgan has money to burn. so it must be his wicked partners in the flying squadron that are de,bauching the electorate. We join the court journal in warning the state against the four great putocrats. They may be, for aught we know, Rockefeller's side part ners-agents of ". A Clark-tools of the National City bank; and the people of Rus sell and Winston should keep runners out. The vigilance and deep patriotism of the court journal in this respect deserves high conmendation.

This property consists of 3,S6S square feet of land upon which stand the new Gould's hotel and the Park thea ter adjoining giving her a total area of H. 51 square feet of land, with frontage of 130 feet on Washington street. Miss Crab tree pays S, ,95S.5O tax on this property. She got control of the Park theater in 1877. and the property has increased each year since.
