The Stock Market this morning Wa. in
clined 10 weakness, though not of an
alarming character The steel securities
generally went off, Wire. common, being
the weak feature The railway list all
around made fractional losses. Sugar,
after con iDuips strong all the morning
became weak on the declaration of the
same dividend rate as that Of the last
quarter, 1 81 per cent. The market was
not an important one, but 1t suggested
more strongly than any recently that z
decline in prices IS likely to occur before
there can be any large resumption OF The
bull movement
It is not to be wondered at that the entire
steel group should have been somewhat
affected by the recent decline OF Wire
But, on the other hand, it is lot probable
that the shTewd people interested il the
better class of the steel securities Will
allow them 10 be permanently held back
by it There is no question as TO the ex-
Ceileut outlook for the steel trade this
winter. and for long time to come.
Sugar was strong in the morning around
139, but went of points in the dividend
announcement which was a disappoint-
ment-
The Baltimore and Ohio securities we're
rather week this morning apparently on
account Of the suit by Mr. Crimmins, q
preferred stock holder, 10 restrain the
company from paying the dividend on the
common stock. The best opinion in the
street seems to be that there is little
ground for the suit and little chance that
it will be won. The comparison between
this suit and that against the payment
of the Federal Steel common stock divi-
dend last year is made. The charter Of
the Federal Steel Company contains a
specific clause TO the effect that the com
mon stock shall not be entitled to any
dividend until the preferred stock shall
have been paid one full years dividend.
OF course there is nothing Of this kind
regarding Baltimore and Ohio common
stock.

TO BE TRIED FOR ASSAULT.
Negro Thomas to Answer for His
Life ut Beaufort.

Beaufort S. c.. May 2S.-The Court of
General Sessions convened here this morn
and it is expected that the case OF tie
State against George Thomas CHARGED
with felonious assault, will be heard
The testimony of the victim, Mrs. Dou-
berly, embodied in an affidavit has been on
file in the office of the Clerk of the Court
for some time and it is highly probable
that she herself will appear 10 testify
against the prisoner.
The prisoner will be defended by Whip
per, negro lawyer.
There Is a large number of people from
Vaudeville where the outrage was per-
petrated attending court, and while Trey
are intensely wrought up over the affair,
yet seem disposed 10 quietly wait the re-
suit of proceedings. The Identification {
the prisoner by his victim, as appears in
her affidavit is most conclusive.
The jury panel is composed exclusively
of white citizens.
Thomas is negro of the most degraded
type having a cast in his left eye, which
defect viii doubtless be a strong factor
in establishing his identity. The 3S-cali-
her Smith & Wesson revolver taken from
him at the time of his arrest and subse-
quently selected from several others by
his victim as the one he drew on her, Is
in the possession of the court and will
also prove a strong factor in establish
ing his guilt

Morning News ONCE, May 2S.-The feat
IRE of the day in the local market vas the
demand for turpentine which sprung up
towards the closing, and helped largely to
resist the backward tendency of the mar
ket up to this time. The opening was
steady, at 40 cents, with very little de-
mand and the outlook gloomy for the
good days business. 1t is stated the Stan
dard entered the market for supplies, and
soon succeeded in cleaning up the offer
ings at quotations. This tended to strength
en- the market, and the more so after
1t was rumored the company was in for
a much larger quantity than that already
bought. The rosin market closed firm and
unchanged, with transactions of a round
lot reported.
The cotton market closed nominal and
unchanged, with no demand and nothing
to add interest to the situation. The fail
ure of Seymour. johnson & Co was re-
ported in the New York Exchange, but it
was stated 1t had only temporary effect
upon prices. The market was fairly well
supported by buying during the early part
OF the session, but later in the day favora-
bic crop reports and unfavorable news
from the dry goods centers caused a siege
of selling, which carried prices down con-
siderably, the closing being barely steady.
one point higher to four points lower.
The local wholesale markets were steady.
The following resume of the different
markets will show the tone and quotations
at the closing to-day:

COTTON FUTURES.

New York. May 2S-Cables from Liver
pool cotton market reporting a net adj
vance of lac points on futures and
hardening tendency on spot cotton made
a much better showing than had been
looked for, and our market opened 8 to
II points higher, the latter advance being
in May. Trading on the call was active,
and so it continued for some time Chiefly
in foreign buying and local covering.
Then the failure of Seymour, Johnson &
Co., was announced and the market inn
mediately broke points; only to rally
again, however, as most of the accounts
with that house had been protected.
Later in the session trading became less
active and prices worked within COM
paratively narrow scope with the general
tendency, if anything, a little downward
as the late English cables showed fall
ing off from the opening. Favorable crop
accounts were also received, and there
was some disposition to sell on the un-
satisfactory reports from the cloth mar
ket. Manchester reported an entire lack
of business with India, owing to the
spread of famine in that country. To-
wards the close there was sharp de-
cline, under a furry of general selling
with the market finally barely steady, one
point higher to four points lower.
New York, May 2S.-CoHon futures
opened steady at the advance and closed
barely steady. Prices as follows:

Spirits Turpentine-The market for tur-
pentine opened steady to-day with all in
dicatons pointing 10 a further weakening
in the situation. Later there was a spir-
tied demand, it is stated, from the Stand

market a stimulus, and brought che tone

that the demand had not then been salts

a good business on the strength of the i'm

were good, and the demand sufficient to

STOCKS AND nONDs.

New York, May 2S-The opening of n
new week showed no material change In
speculative conditions and the stock mar
kets of New York, London. Paris and
Berlin continued dun and neglected. In
New York another brokerage firm an
nounced its suspension, che failure being
announced, as was that of Price, McCor-
mick & Co.. on the Cotton and Stock Ex-
changes, almost simultaneously The
closing out of the firms contracts on the
Stock Exchange under the rule resulted
In transactions in about 10 600 shares. That
prices were inclined to advance under
the influence of the settlement was sufIi-
GENTLY explained by the fact that the
buying of stocks for the firm outnum-
bered the selling fully 20 1. That Is to
say, the house was largely short of the
market. The failure is attributed to cot
ton speculation, as the recent movement
of stocks has been in favor of outstanding
contracts OF the firm.
Last weeks rumors of financial diff
culties. which specified this house,
brought pressure to bear upon them and
precipitated the assignment. The fact
that the same kind OF rumors are circu-
lated regarding some other houses is a
factor in keeping Wall street sentiment
unsettled.
The only notable movement during the
day were the advances In Sugar, supposed
10 be on bear covering, and In Burlington
character as that which has given the
stock its recent strength: These adj
vances prompted some sharp rallies at
other points in the market and some of
the earlier losses were recovered. The
market was semi-stagnant at times and
the closing was DUH and irregular. Lon
don sold small amounts of stock all
though that market as a whole showed
some strength on the advance of the
British into the Transvaal. II is worth
remembering that the speculative world
has based its largest hope regarding the
end of the Tfansvaal war on The effect
90 be produced in the money market by
the resumption of the gold supply from
the South African mines, but at the
present time there is a refiux of cash into
the reserves of all the great banks Of
the world and increasing difficulty Is be-
ing experienced in finding profitale en-
ployment for idle capital. This is en-
tirely without effect in arousng any
speculative demand for securities, owing
to the fact that the release of money is
due to a decline in trade. Dizziness to-
day was accentuated by the face that
the week will be interrupted by a holt
day in New York and by the years great
racing event in London. Sterling ex
change was weak to-day.
