Portland. Me
New York, May 7.-There were saverai
iu, idents in today's market WI IN saved
Il from absolute monotony. but II was
nevertheless one of tho drllest bal ness
days messed In some months. Thess
iusi tents were the appearance OF qri .
effective nluiia,i,n in st. Paul under
wi ,h that OF inaii'y oris stock broke
ons and one-hslt and further unsettis-
ment OF all steel iudusui ale. Rather
mcrs than the orc icary smount OF after
,i,n was psii to the break In 81. Pau
on iug to the character Of the SCI "
wti,h ACCORD ing to the he 4 of the room
nod STANDARD Oh ige. There was at
solutely no news 20 account for the weak
ness Of st Paul. and the other standard
stocks parti ,ularly as tners have reosntl'
been sa,i sfactogy r, iafails throughout the
northwes. ern states with have material
" reduced the danger Of drought In that
section.
The unhappy steel industrlals got two
separate knocks today. The nrss was tne
announcement that the Federal Steel
ocmrapy had closed down ita works at
JOLIET, Illinois, and the other came later
in the day when the announcement that
Messrs. Seiigman and Strouse had re-
sisned from the board OF dirsctorf Of the
American Stesl and Wire company. Vir-
tualIy the only reason they gave for re-
signing was that MIR. Gates had not re
sianed and they were led to believe he
would do 90 some weeks age. Thss'
stocks ran OF further on this announce
ment and after ralIying clessd weak
again. The fluctuations In sugar were
fairly wide but they were altogether uitf :
cut explanation In the way of news
Money Was In ample supply all day at
low rates, and railroad earnings wers all
that could be desired. The foreign ex-
change market held Its cwn and the
street had some rather exaggerated re-
ports as to the amount Of gold likely &c
be shipped this week. So far as We can
ascertain from the most truitworthy au-
thorities the amount Will not be much
over 81, 900, 000 and will almost certainly
not be larger than last weeks shipments.

JUDGE KINGS HOME RIFLED
BURGLARS BREAK IN AND
STEAL SOME CASH.
Sam A. King Loses $3.50, But Con-
graduates Himself That It Wasn't
More.

The residence of Judge W. H. King
on Military avenue was visited by
burglars several nights ago, S41 in coin
being secured. The intruders were out
for cash only, leaving everything I'M
touched outside of Mrs. Kings pocket
book and the trousers Of 5. A. King,
the judges brother, who was sleeping
at the house.
IL is supposed the burglars We're ac-
quainted with the premises, as the
keys TO the basement door had been
missed during the day of the burglary,
and il had TO be left open that night
Through this the house was entered,
and making their way upstairs the
thieves had easy access to the sleeping
rooms.
Mr.. King had come from Provo that
night, having in his possession $3.50 be-
longing TO a client with which he wa7
to have satisfied a judgment. He had
S15 IN gold in his hip pocket and $40
in currency in his inside coat pocket
but for some inexplicable reason ali
this was overlooked, the thieves con-
tenting themselves with $3.50 IN
change in the side pocket Of his trou-
sers. That Mr.. King did not awake is
a mystery; still, his friends say. the
only thing likely to disturb sam under
the same circumstances would be the
explosion Of an Internal machine under
IA. 5UQ-
Mrs. King had been shopping and
had about 81 IN her purse. This was
extracted. and after gOinE through the
judges pockets the burglars took their
leave. The judge lost nothing. having
rid himself of what money he had on
his person just before leaving his Office
in the afternoon.

MAY OPEN ALL SCHOOLS
HEALTH BOARD RAISES IT'S
EMBARGO.
Unvaccinated As Well As Vaccinated
Children VIII Be Allowed to At
tend.

It was determined at a special meet
ing Of the board of health yesterday
that the necessity has ceased to exist
for keeping day and Sunday schools
closed or open under restrictions to the
unvaccinated during the threatened
epidemic Of smallpox. The school board
was ordered officially of the health
boards action and to Sunday school SUI
perintendents notice by publication in
the news apers was deemed sufficient.
The reasons for the action determin-
ed upon by the health board are set
forth in a resolution adopted to the
following effect:
Whereas, The Salt Lake City board
of health, after careful consideration of
the public health and the conditions
with reference to smallpox in this city,
all cases having been strictly quaran-
tined and sufficient time having elapsed
to justify the belief that all fear of in
lection from these sources has passed,
and stricter quarantine having been
established by the outlying districts;
therefore, be it
Resolved, That this board recon-
mends to the board of education that
the public schools may safely be opened
without restriction on Monday, Feb. 5,
1900. provided there is no further ap-
pearance of the disease"
Another resolution OF similar purport
was adopted to relieve the embargo
against the holding of Sunday school
sessions in this city.
The health boards action will be
sufficient warrant to the board of ed
ucation to reopen the schools Monday
morning to all corners whether vacci-
mated or not, but the appeal TO the su-
preme court in the Cox mandarnus case
will be prosecuted. nevertheless, in or
der to finally determine for future ext
gencies whether the unvaccinated pu-
pills shall, at the direction Of the health
board, be excluded from attending the
public schools.

to be played between the Short Line,
Rio Grande. Ogden and Park CITY
mines. ArIangeme lIs are under way for
the formation OF q league OF the four
mines, and the playing out Of sched-
ule Of games for the state champion
ship. It may be just possible, too. that
there VIII be either q cup or pennant
offered by some wealthy devOtee Of the
game. Players Of reputation are to be
imported, and the season viii take on
much Of the color Of the national
league games, but, of course, viii be
on a much smaller scale.
The Rio Grande team has already eff
pected the Short Line viii follow suft
in a short time. Beth teams expect to
have the best men procurable end to
put up far better sample Of baseball
than they ever have before. 1t is not
expected that the Y. NJ. c. A. viii put
a nine on the diamond Secretary AK
ton says than if he cannot have purely
an amateur aggregation, he viii not
have any at all. He does not think
1t will be possible TO get together a
nine from amateurs and be able to do
anything creditable.
While the big games viii naturally
excite the most interest, the school
mines will also have their following and
1t viii not be a small following either.
The prospects for the formation of a
school league are bright The High
school, All Hall0Ws college, the Univer-
slty and possibly the Lattsr-day Saints
college VIII compose the league. and
they VIII play cut a schedule.
AbEeT Howell, the High school pitch

good as ever That is saying consider
able and the High school team may
consider itself lucky to have him again
