TO BRING SHEAR BACK.
An officer Goes to Syracuse After the
Alleged FOrger.

Detective Weldon left the city yesterday
for Syracuse, n. Y, TO take charge of Leroy
c. Shear, alias Charles r. Clark, who Is
wanted here for the passing of alleged
worthless checks to the amount of $500
during the latter ylrt of last year.
Shear was arrested in New York about
two weeks ago and was turned over to the
Syracuse authorities A descriptive cir
cular requesting the apprehension of Shear
had been issued previously by Major SyI-
yester, but as no reward was offered by the
local authorities, and the Syracuse police
offered a substantial sum for the captur-
OF Shear, he was turned over to them. II
develops now that the Syracuse police will
not prosecute Shear. and are willing that
he should come to Washington
Shear is said 10 be a noted forger and to
have served penltentiary terms He is
credited with having on two occasions
broken Jail. II Is expected that Detective
Weldon and the prisoner will reach this
city tonight.

A. had been expected, yesterday was
day OF heavy realizing after the immense
advances Of the past two weeks. The fine
strength OF the situation and the eX-
tremeiy optimistic sentiment that IRE
walls was shown in striking manner
in the fact that despite this heavy selling
to take profits and despite large short
sales, too the list as a whole, held its
own. and many securities showed good
advances. The three groups mentioned
earlier this. week as likely to be features
the fractions. the steel and iron securi-
ties, and the anthracite coalers, we're all
more active than at any time recently,
and all advanced also, some of them in
an important way. The grangers and the
Pacific securities were strong, but not SO
active as heretofore and none Of them
made net gains for the day except Rock
Island, Northern Pacific. and Southern Pa
cific. The Baltimore and Ohio securities
were again features OF the list, and the
common stock again was the stronger of
the two. The outlook is excellent for
continuance of the upward movement to-
day. The bears made an attempt 10 break
the market yesterday but did not sue

day there was covering by them, which is
likely TO be continued this morning. The

1t is already evident that the Germans are in

due to what may be regarded as bad luck has

Sir Clements Markham president of the Royal
Geographical Society in England, has frankly
expressed misgivings of this character concern
ing Borchgrevink's party which landed in Vic
tora Land about year ago.
1t has been decided that the British expedition
OF 1901 viii try skirt that portion of the
south polar continent that lies along the Pacific.
The Germans will devote themselves, as far as is
practicable. to the regions adjacent to the South
Indian and Atlantic oceans. On the outward
voyage, after reaching Cape Town the German
party will sail almost due eastward past Prince
Edward and CroZet Island, to Kerguelen. which
is 20 degrees of longitude east of Greenwich.
Thence push will be made to the east of south

point. This is approximately in longitude 90

Land, attempt will be made to locate the
station the western edge of that sub
division of the continent possible Magnetic
and meteorological observations will, OF course,

data thus obtained will be greatly enhanced if

a subordinate station in New-Zealand for this
purpose and Germany the island of kergue-

observations at Melbourne, Cape Town, Cape
