THE STOCK MIRK EFT.


New York. Aug. 14.-To-day's stock
market gave a marked exhibition Of
strength, rejecting as 1t did an upward
movement in all classes Of securities.
Reports of a possible amicablc adjust
ment of the wage schedule was respon-
| sible for a rise of points in American
Tin Plate and 1a1k in kindred proper
ties. AS on yesterday, the leading rail-
road shares occupied a commanding po-
sition in the market, exceptionally large
blocks of the Atchisons, grangers and
Pacifics being taken at Improvements
| ranging from large fraction to 1as in
st, Paul. Practically the only excep-
tions were Baltimore and Ohio and
Southern Pacific. The first mentioned
was sold heavily on it's July earnings,
which fell off $685. 166 in net. An effort
was made to raid Southern Pacific on
the announcement of the death of its
president, but the opening block Of $500
shares at 1914, which was n per cent.
under yesterdays close, was readily alb
sorbed. Indications that the stock was
to be supported influenced the bears to
transfer the attack to Sugar. This
stock despliyed good deal of irregu-
larity and ended III off,
AS the effective bullying of the rail-
road stocks became more marked, nu-
merous Of the usually inactive stocks
participated in he dealings and i'm
proved materially. Despite the excap-
tionally heavy gold engagements for
export tomorrow, no change in the To-
cal monetary situation occurred.
Abroad, however, reflection of the
gold drain from this country was noted
in decline in money and discounts in
London, exchange on London at Paris
and Berlin also yielding. Some recov-
cry was made early in the day in ster-
ling exchange quotations, but subse-
quently the market became easier on
sales of bills against tomorrow ship
ments
Business by the arbitrage brokers was
on large scale and for the long side of
the account. In the closing dealings of
the stock market there were indications
that the short lines We're being reduced
and prices ended at about the highest
point.
An increase was noted In bond trans
actions to-day, but the inquiry was
generally for the semi-speculative is
sues. The general tone was quite firm.

PRESIDENT KRUEGER'S REFUGE.

Right of Asylum Asked of the United
States = Explanation of Consul Hollis
Trip to Machadodorp.
London, August 14.--President Kruger at
one time made Il formal application to the
United States to grant him the right of
asylum in case the necessity for 1t arose.
This took place, according to Secretary of
State Reltz of the Transvaal republic, the
day Lord Roberts entered Pretoria. The
details of the event have been related to Il
representative Of the Associated Press by
MI. L. w. Unger, VINO has just returned
from the Transvaal and who secured the
information from Secretary Reitz and
others.
After quoting the secretary as saying that
President Kruger would never take to the
mountains, OH account Of his age, but
would retreat down the line, finally escap-
ing to Portuguese territory, Mr.. Unger said
that the day the British entered Pretoria
President Kruger sent for Mr.. w. Stanley
Hollis, the United States consul at Lorenzo
Marques, and Mr.. Hollis was taken to Ma
ehadodorp, in, a special car. President
grant him president Kruger an asylum in
The Lorenzo Marques consulate until he
(AIr Kruger) made other arrangements for
his departure He expressed fears concern
ing his treatment by the Porting lese gov
eminent, and wished to guard against any
possible British landing parties. Mr.. Hollis
asked for time to consult with his aovela-
ment, and President Kruger assured him
he would receive weeks notice before
putting the plan into execution.
IN consequence of this visit 20 the Trans
yaal and the transmission of President
Krugers request to Washington, Mr.. Hol-
lis received Instructions from Secretary
Hay not to leave Portuguese territory
again. He was thus compelled to neglect
the interests of the British prisoners Mt
Noot Gedacht, where there was great suf
fering.
Mr. Unger, in conclusion, said: II make
this explanation in justice to Mr.. Hollis,
whose action has been misunderstood, both
In America and Great Britain.
Mr.. Unger did not know whether the
State department eventually gave specific
answer to President Kruger's request.
Washington August 14.-It is said at the
State department that no formal applica-
ton ever has come from Consul Hollis for
a refuge In the American consulate for
President Kruger and that the Instructions
sent to the consul to Contine his energies
to his consular duties was not a result of
any discussion of IN asylum for the Boer
president, as the department was not
aware that Mr.. Hollis had visited the pres
ident 1t is stated that the right of asy-
lum or sanctuary does not exist as to con-
suates, but is purely diplomatic immu-
nifty at q legation or other quarters occu-
pied by minister. 1t appears that some
intimation on the subject reached the ofli-
cials here, but it is said to have been not
such Il formal application as would have
been requisite Had formal application
been made it is stated that it would have
heen passed upon by the president. but
there has been nothing communicated
which called for such action.

SCHOOL PROPERTY EXEMPT.
A Legal Opinion REGARDING the Mar.

A Legal Opinion Regarding the Mar
list sOciety,s Tract.
Andrew B. Duvall. the Attorney for the
District, has submitted to the Commits
sioners an opinion on the application Of
the Marist Society for the exemption Of
its property from taxation. .-4zs-.
1T appears says the Attorney. from
the report Of the assessor, that the prop
erty in question consists Of ten acres Of
land located between the Hardwood Road
and the Bates Road, north of the Cath
ollie University, upon which the society
has erected a large brick building de-
voted to the higher education OF priests.
etc.. and that the entire ten acres 10
within the enclosure where the building
Is located
Mr.. Duvall then cites the law applica.
BILE to the case which Is found in the act
Of Congress approved June II, 1870, and
provides:
THAT all churches and school houses,
and all buildings. grounds, and property
appurtenant thereto. and used in conner.
ton Herewith in the District. and any
cemetery therein, held and owned by
religious society, having regular and
known place of worship. or by any In.
corporated association. shall be exempt
from any and all taxes or assessments
national or municipal
TIE Attorney observes that the act pro.
viding for permanent form o. govern>
ment for the District approved June II.
1878. provides in its fourteenth section as
follows:
THAT the term schoolhouses In the
act of June II. 1870. was intended to en-
brace all collegiate establishments ac-
tuaily used for educational purposes and
not for private gain. But if any portion
Of any said building house. or grounds In
terms excepted Is used to secure rent or
income. or for any business purpose. such
portion OF the same. or a sum equal In
value to such portion. shall be taxed"
Therefore. in the opinion Of the Attor-
ney the building erected by the Marist
Society is schoolhouse within the mean
ing Of, the said act of Congress. and IL
this property is actually used for educa-
tional purposes, ard not for private gain.
Mr.. Duvall is of the opinion that the
buildings and grounds appurtenant there
to. that is to say. the entire ten acres are
exempt from taxation. and should accord
ingly be entered upon the books of tine
Assessor as exempt and not to be taxed.

woLcorTs HOPEFUL VIEW.

Optimistic of Republicans Success In
Colorado This Year.
Senator Woicott has Just returned from
Colorado, where he went to preside over
the Republican State Convention held last
Thursday. Although he knew something
of the change of public sentiment in his
State, Senator WoIcott was hardly pre-
pared for the conditions he found there.
He had a most interesting story to tell
Of the present political status Of this once
banner silver State, which, according to
the present outlook. he thinks will be
back in the Republican column before the
close Of this years campaign. Senator
Wolcott called on President Mckinley
yesterday and this is the pleasant story
he told him of the return of the Centen-
NAL State to the Republican fold:
During the paImiest days of the Re-
publican party. that was afterward we'd
ded to the Democracy because CT its de-
been such large and enthusiastic Re-
publican convention as was held last
Thursday. Every delegation was filed
with men living in the county they repre-
scented, many of them travelling four or
five hundred miles to be present at the
convention. although there were no nomi-
nations to be made for elective officers. At
least one-half of the delegates were men
who went over to Bryan four years ago
and who are now enthusiastic for McKin-
ley and the Republican party. The three
men who were elected Delegates t-large
with Senator Wolcott-Messrs. Moffatt.
Stratton. and Brown, are the three most
prominent, influential. and typical mining
men in the State. representing large in
terests and exercising wide influence.
Each Of them supported Mr.. Bryan four
years ago. There Is great and remarka-
BILE revolution in public sentiment in Col
orado, Senator Wolcott says, and the peo-
pie of the State are naturally hopeful and
full of courage
