Quandary for the ErsnhIin statue Mni
Meaepolist.

There had been only one milkman who
was able TO get q permit from the Park De-
partmsnt TO station his wagon near the Frank
lin statue In Printing House Square and no
strutted around his wagon telling all others
to keep Away. He sold more glssses Of cold
milk than any other milkman on the Row. 80
another milkman anchored his wagon at
the long crosswalk. within fifty feet OF the
monopolists wagon. This was q few days
ago. He had been there but Q few hours
whom the monopolist called q policeman
and made Q complaint saying that the new
conner had no right there. The cop said the
police captain had given the newcomer per-
mission to stand on the square.
well said the monopolist. -the captain
has nothing TO do with the matter. This
square comes within the Jurisdiction Of the

SO the monopolist unhitched his horse and
led him around the corner.
few minutes later a gang OF men from
the Street Cleaning Department came along
with a gang from the Bureau Of lncum-

WALDO COUNTY COURT.
Sixty New Cases Added to Dockei.-A Spic,
Diysrce Case.

Belfast. Me, Jan. 3.-The Waldo su-
preme judicial court is just getting
down to work
A divorce suit which will have more
than passing interest will be that OF
Edith NJ. Graves of Belfast. lbt.. vs.
Amos II. Graves of Boston. on the
grounds of non-support. 1t will be
countermanded by a cross suit which
the defendant in the first case brings
on the grounds of adultery. The trial
bids fair to be spicy one. Mr.. Graves
makes his home at Marblehead and
travels for a well-known Boston hard
ware firm. On Wednesday, the hus-
band was ordered to pay into the court
the sum of $50 in each case for the
assistance of the wife in defending the
case.
Minnie NJ. Tuttle of Belfast. was
granted a divorce from Adrian c. Tut
tie on Tuesday. on the grounds of non
support. The custody of the minor
child, Emma NJ, was given TO the
mother.
There were 60 new entries on the
docket this morning. and as many OF
these cases will be put over. others
settled and non-suted, the outlook is
for a very short term of court.
The first trial to come before the
court was that of Tuesday, a suit
being brought against the proprietor of
the Farmers Inn for wages due as
clerk and bar tender by Almeron Dick
cy of this city.

MARKET REPORTS.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features Of the Days Dealings in All the Lead.
ing Stocks.

New York. Jan. 1.-The long expected
storm Of liquidation broke over the stock
market today, and swept prices in a tor
rent of selling on a downward course,
which was not efectually checked even
at the close Of the market. Spectators
who We're long of stocks showed many of
the symptoms of panic in their scramble
to save the imposing profits which the
prolonged rise had indicated for them on
paper. The market was so top-heavy by
reason of the vast number of accounts
on narrow margin which infested it that
the tall in prices gained momentum as it
progressed The wipng out of margins
with the decrease in the face value of
stocks forced them TO sale to prevent
losses by the brokers. The money mar
ket maintained calm surface all day.

or below that. There We're various con-
tributory causes assigned 10 account for
the violent break. but the real root of the
trouble was that faith in the present
level of prices began TO be impaired and
conviction was borne in upon specula
tors that the large demand for stocks
which they have expected to continue
counted. OF the contributory causes to
the slump, most Importance must be at
tached to the advance in the Bank of
ENGLAND discount rate from 4 TO per
from London describe gloomy forebod-
inSs over the future. The result was q
sharp jump in sterlino exchange rates in
New York and growth of a belief thai
the New York money market will be
called upon for gold to relieve the
strained situation in foreign money mar
kcts. The developments in the foreign
trade situation favor this hypothesis.
Grain and cotton bnIS have become
scarce in the exchange market, and the
relapse in iron prices abroad while prices
have been well maintained in the domes
tic market, indicate the certainty of a
falling off in the foreign iron trade. The
heavv liquidation in Sugar had very
unsettlng effect on sentiment. as it was
commonly attributed to a well-known
steel magnate. who has made his mark
heretofore on the bear side of the stock
market. The violent slUmp in the Rubber
stocks on the reduction in the preferred
dividend was an additional disturbing in
fluencc. The joint effect of these various
causes can he gathered by d study of the
price changes for the day in the list of
stocks. In the railroad list. those stocks
which have recently been under most pal
pable manipula ton We're naturally most
affected. The closing was in many cases
near the lowest. The bond market was
very active and liquidation was in force

cincs in prices were by no means so
marked. Total sales, par value. S;.955,00l.
