The REFLECTOR published on Mon
day report Of Populist meeting in

ing, the report being given it by a
citizen Of that vicinity, in which it
stated that W. H. Phipps was cor.
rected in his statements concerning
the American soldiers by member
Of Co. L. Mr.. Phipps with a display
Of Populist billingsgate not to be ex-
pected from q gentleman who poses
as an educator, raved over the mat
ter in last evenings Chronicle. The
facts are that the REFLECToR's only
error was that its informant confused
the speakers and the sentiments
were expressed by G. E. Rugh'
candidate for county attorney on the
Fusion ticket, who was also speak
er at the meeting.
Charles Sherwood, one Of the brav.
est members Of Company l., who did

statement chat was not true in saying
that the American troops destroyed
property. From Manila to San Fer
nando more property was destroyed
by the Filipinos than by the whole
American army. Aguinaldo would
run the citizens out Of a town and
keep his soldiers in until the last,
then set the houses and churches atire
and 90 out and tell their own people
that it was the American troops that
did it.
Mr.. Rugh said he did not mean the

right. He meant the American army
in general.

New York, Dec. 26.--The stock mar
ket went through some astonishing vi
ishing phase was the final recurrence
of the undertone of strength which has
come i'm to support the market so per-
sistently Of late and driven off all moods
OF depression. After opening with a
skyrocket advance in prices followed
by drop very like the skyrocket's
stick, the market gathered itself again
and ignoring the continued pressure of
LIQUIDATION at some points, resumed it's
show Of strength. The sharp reaction
at mid-session was due more thar any
thing else to the extremely doubtful
character Of some Of the opening ad-
vances. The character of the stocks af-
fected and the violence Of the jump in
prices gave a suggestion of the culmin-
alton of bull market Professional
traders who have been on the lookout
for such signs sold the market eagerly
on the opening rise These offerings
We're supplemented by heavy profit taxi
ing. At this period the market took on
an appearance of general weakness
The opening gains in a number of in
dustrial specialties and in few of the
railroad stocks We're very generally
wiped out and some of the important
railroad stocks had fallen slightly be-
low Saturdays closing level The vio-
lent break in the Northern Pacific
stocks had a large influence in the de-

A published statement that the pre-

for the break, as it would take away
the reason for the recent speculation.
