THE STOCK VI 3RK EFT.


New York, Sept 1.-The fever in
American Sugar Refining stock, which
has been undergoing a process of care
full nursing for several weeks past,
broke into crisis to-day, as is not I'M
usual on the eve of dividend action on
this stock. For several weeks there
has been extensive buying Of Sugar
stock, but the palpable manipulation
to advance the price which accom-
panied the buying, aroused the suspi-
cions of the professionals. OF course 1t
must be a speculative bull clique, ar
gued the professionals, which would
sell out in the midst of the manipula-
ton for the rise. When the stock be-
gan to drop the professionals congra tu-
lated themselves upon their foresight
and became eager operators on the
short side of Sugar. The apparent IL
quidation of the lorg stock and the
courageous pressure by the bears con-
tinued even this morning until the di-
rectors went into session. about which
time the stock touched the low point at

The sultry weather did not prevent a
large audience from witnessing the
splendid presentation of Bret Harte's
great play of the Sierras, "Mliss," and
the delightful cool atmosphere that per-
vaded the Grand opera house last night
did much to enable the audience to en-
Joy the excellent performance. Nellie
McHenry as Miss was all that could
be desired and played the part with
snap and vim that showed that this
clever actress had given the part most
careful study. Ralph Delmore as Yuba
Bill ably seconded the efforts of the
star to make the presentation a sue
cess. James Cooper as hummer Smith
gave a fine rendition of the part, Frank

First, that, without regard to their
views on minor questions Of domestic

Second, that they vote for those can

WHITES TuRN-DOwN

Levy Court Commissioner Henry M.
White. of the Fourth district, has been
sacrificed IN the house Of his friends.
BY q decisive vote the Democratic
County Executive Committee has ruled
that ne Is ineligible for recollection in
consequence of the recent legislative
act IN that behalf which he contended
did not apply to him, but would apply
to his successors in office. We have
no doubt that Mr.. White feels that the
action OF the committee was not ac-
tuated wholly by a sincere regard for
the law He and many OF his friends
feel that those interested in the candi-
dacy Of other men in the district
brought the law. forward as an excuse
for the Democratic machine to bowl
him out of the race before it had been
begun cleverly. This feeling may serve
70 reopen the old fight in New Castle
hundred. for, regardless Of Mr.. Whites
record as a commissioner, he is recog-
nized as a man who viii not submit
tamely to what ne considers an injus-
tice.
This action by the Democratic COM
mittee extends farther than Mr. White.

cratic commissioner In the Fifth dis
trict, has withdrawn voluntarily in

in the White case by the Democratic
