was o. In~lellal aid TO them and they
were aDle to Iorce declines running
from / to Z points at the very outset.
The OF the market was no
immediately overcome and tnoce were
notable losses all through the nrst
hour. Yesterdays sharp reaction
brought in prott taxing and stop-loss
ordels from many outside sources.
But the evidence of support were SUI
fcient even in the opening dealings to
serve as a warning TO the bears ana
they began to cover very early. The
rebound in sugar on the story OF a set
tiement OF the trade war was IN itself
a back-set for the bears. But h
powerful lever which moved the whole
market was st. Paul. The story cur

be leased to Northern Pacific and
Great Northern on the guarantee OF a
dividend with a preliminary distribu-
ton of the company's great surplus,
received renewed c%redence, although
there was no additional confirmation.

until an official authorized statement is
given out. 1t is sufficient for the pur-
poses of this review to state that the
price moved upward as a result 1874
points from the low level on sales OF
over 243, 600 shares. Notwithstanding
feverish vibrations, the price closed
within a "a of the top. Parallel with
this rise was an upward movement IN
Northern Pacific of eight points and in
Great Northern preferred of Z points.
Without attempting to specify other
individual movements it is sufficient
to say that the gains in all the stocks
most actively traded in ranged from 2
to over 6 points, and in New Jersey
Central the rise reaches nearly 9
points. The market closed amid in
tense excitement and furious activity
with many stocks at top prices and rls-

wild Scenes on Change.
To-day was one of the most exciting
days in the history of the New York
Stock Exchange. The matter of re-
cording the transactions on the eX-
change is ineXact at the best, AMI espe-
cially in such a market as to-day are
transactions likely to be lost from the
record. But there can be no doubt
that the aggregate sales for to-day ex-
ceeded anything ever done before on
the exchange. The recorded transac-
lions footed up 1887, 900 shares, COM
pared with the previous record of l.
623,919 shares on November II, 1900.
There have been wider price move
ments than any of those made to-day
in individual stocks, or in groups of
stocks, but it is doubtful whether
there has ever before been so violent a
~f1uctuation in the average price for all
stocks traded in as from the low price
to the high price to-day. The con
fusion during the early hours of the
market, while the ultimate course of
prices was still in controversy, was be-
yond all description and the excite
ment during the late period of the day.
when the demand was at its height
and prices were moving most rapidly
upward, warrants the use of the term
frenzy. Blocks of many thousand
shares of stock were
Banded About From Hand to Hand
among the brokers with no more ap-
parent consideration, beyond the ex-
c1tement of the game, than boys show
In playing marbles. Considering the
extreme variations in prices and the
highly concentrated character of some
OF the dealings, it is no exaggeration
TO say that vast fortunes were made
n lost on the floor of the exchange
during the day. The occasions are
very rare when sentiment on the ex-
change has been so abruptly changed
from a mood of depression to one of
excessive eXhiliaration as was shown
to-day, although events have occurred
to precipitate sudden panics in the
midst of speculative excess. 1t would
be useless to attempt to analyze close
ly the cause underlying such a mar
ket. There was a recrudescence in full
force of all the bulifsh sentiment
which has stirred up the stock market
for two months past. The effect was
the more acute by reason of the re-
bound from yesterdays depression.
There was, of purse the actual buying
requirement from the bear element,
which ~over-extended itself yesterday
on the confident assumption that the
Sction once established and liquida-
nHted, it was bound to run a
course, but the actual buy
pent could have form

 OUR WATER SUPPLY.-Is it inn ! possible for citizens of Phoenix to use common sense in the use of water? asks a reader of The Republican. On | the first evening of carnival week Washington street in front of the | grand stand was sprinkled Cor rather splashed at night, so that the people who were on the ground, including the governor and staff for whom no seats were provided, were sure to have damp feet and to take cold. Fine car riages are soon ruined here, because if taken out in the evening they are GOV cred with mud, and have to be washed | every day instead of every week, to the
 ruin of leather and iron work. Bicycles are injured in the same way. l learned recently of another cruel practice. The 1 floors of some Phoenix stores are sprinked in the morning instead of in
 the evening, and the clerks. both men and women, have to stand on the damp | floor during the day, fortunate if pneu- monia is not developed by The expos ure. Water is good in its place. as says one of Phoenix's most eminent attorneys but it would be for the health and happiness of many Phoe- nicians if sometimes water were used
 more sparingly."
 DOG CATCHING.-Dog catching will begin again today and those who have | failed to tag the rising generation of pups in their kennels may expect to lose them very soon, unless they Caifat the marshals office and settle. An tonic Mason isl a bright-faced, intelli-
 gent Mexican boy, who knows every
 canine within four miles of Phoenix and thinks he knows how to catch dogs scientifically. He appeared before the
 recorder yesterday, was sworn to the support of the constitution of the Unit eL States, the city ordinances and the eXtcrrnination of every friend!ess cur in the community. lie begins work to- day as official dog catcher and an nounces that he will be no, sluggard.
 The dog catcher gets fifty cents head
 for all the dogs he captures and 1t amounts to a good many dollars in a season. Still, the number of dogs re- deemed at two dollars each has always brought in revenue enough to pay the dog catcher and leave a little balance for the city treasury.

 DISTRICT COURT,-The case of the United States for the use of w. J.. Rainey vs John B Sprague et al was tried in district court yesterday and taken under advisement. Sprague was contractor on government work. The afternoon was taken up with the triaAof F. Blanche Harrington vs P. K. Hickey ct al, involving the title to property near Glendale.

To be declared victor OF the meet wrestler
