REPORT OF THE new

Review of Trade.

New York. Jan. 1.-The stock market
made another demonstration this morn
ing of it's amazing power of absorption.
and Overcame in less than an hour the
heaviest and most relentless unloading
to realize profits which it has yet had
to encounter. Spectators who had been
lucky enough to get into the market
before the phenomenal rise of the lat
ter part of last week We're eager sellers
to take profits.
The consequence of the speculative
unloading was successive drops of a
half to a point in prices, and the ex-
IRENE decline ran up to five points in
Tennessee Coal and Iron. Jersey Cen
trail, after an opening rise Of one point,
dropped back five points on two success
sive sales. Northern Pacific was forced

. points
There We're plenty of opening advances
ranging from one to two points for i'm
portant stocks. but the rush to sell
completely overbore the market and the
whole list yielded. 1t was soon perceived
that very large buying orders were in
the market and that brokers were Gag
erly accepting all offerings of stocks at
the lowest level of price. With that the
| anxiety of the sellers was quickly re-
lieVed and they ceased to offer stocks.
| Meantime the all-embracing demand
| continued and the result was an upward

came more steady and fluctuations We're
no longer so violent and erratc. But

AMONG THE BOWLERS.

Bowling contests are becoming quite
the thing and since the last match which
was bOwed Saturday night between Geo.
Welcome and Fred Peckover, and Horace
Fl. Durston and Mart. Fillmore. in which
the latter proved their superiority by
easily winning the first three games OF
the four to be played, there has been
plenty of talk of other matches between
the many experts on hand and one or two
Messrs. Welcome and Peckover are still
feeling good and yet have designs on
the top notch among the crack players
and another match is likely to be ar
ranged soon in which they will exert
themselves to show little more speed
and win back their lost laurels.
Interest in this splendid exercise is not
alone confined to the gentlemen, but it
Is now quite the fad among the ladies,
many of whom are quite enthusiastic
and patronize the alleys regularly dur
ing the mornings and early part of the
afternoon while the men and boys who
crowd in later in the day and evening
are attending to business and holding
down their respective jobs. While no
contests have been arranged as yet,
there is considerable rivelry between
several who have acquired an expert
ness that is surprising, and may result
in some interesting contests. which If ad-
vertised. would draw large crowds but
they will undoubtedly be pulled off on
the quiet.

Will Be Taken.

In the damage suit of Patrick Nugent

company. Judge Knowles today signed
an order directing Michael Dolan, a no.
tary public to take the deposition of the

platform of the car in which he had been
riding as he had been sezed with a
violent fit of coughing. The train at the
time was at Stuart station and as some
cars We're being coupled he was thrown
to the ground by the jolting. Among 9TH

SORROWS OF SATAN"

Two facts should be borne in mind in
connection with Marie Corelli's SORROWS
of SATAN" VIM. A. Brady's elaborate
production of which is to be given at the
Margaret theater next Wednesday even
ing. In the first place in touching upon
religious matters it does so in no irreyer-
ent way. No one of the more than mill
lion people who have read the remark
able story in this country needs to be told
that it could not offend the most sensi-
tive of the devout. On the other hand
the general theater goer who has no set
tied religious convictions, need not fear
that the piece, on this account, lacks
dramatic interest. No book of recent
years has been so filled with the thea tri-
cal element of surprise, none has had a
stronger tendency to keep the reader out
of bed until he has finished the final page.
In the play, the wonderful electrical eff
fects. from which the stage satan can
not altogether rid himself even in his
human guise. would delight the gallery.

BUTTE LOCALS
ANNIE Kinks
Pipe DREAM
TOLD THE POLICE THAT SHE HAD
BEEN KIDNAPPED BY TWO
MINI.

Annie Kirk. IA years old. who resides
at $40 South Main street, told tine ponce
and her parents today that she mad peen
the victim of kidnapers VINO locked her
up in a cabin over night. They did not
modest her. and released her this morn
ing.
The story of the girl appears to be a
mine dream and was told $50 that she
would escape a scolding from her par
erts.
The matters was first called to the at
tention of the police last might by the
parents who said that the girl was miss
ing. A long and unsuccessful hunt re-
suited and this morning the girl turned
UT all right with the kidnapping story.
Detective Murphy and Officer Marsh re-
solved to run the story down. and spent
the greater part of the day i'm doing so.
The girl stuck to the story that she had
been kidnapped by two men and locked
up for the night. She said she had at
tended the Catholic Sunday school in the
afternoon and when she got to the alley
way, two men took hold of her and
dragged her into the alley. They then
took her over several streets to cabin
and locked her in but did not modest her
further She said that they came to the
cabin this morning and released her.
Detective Murphy and Officer Walsh
traced her movements during the after
noon, and found that she had not been
molested at all. The girl went to Mrs.
Buchanan's house, at 1921 East Mer-
curry street. and remained there until
$50 p. m, when Mrs. Buchanan asked
her if her mother would not be angry be-
cause she stayed out so late. The girl
answered that her mother would not care
| If she stayed all night. The result was
that Annie did remain with her friend all
night, and in the morning Mrs. Buchan-
| an sent her off to school.
| Detective Murphy believes that the girl
| told the story of KIDNAPPING because her
| father had told her not to stay out any
| more.

TOOK FANCY HAMS.

Burglars entered the Washington mar
ket at 81 West Park street some time
last night and succeeded in getting
away with between $40 and $50 worth of
fancy hams.
An entrance was effected through the
back door. light boards which were in
the place of glass being broken and the
catch of the door pushed back. There
must have '1een more than one man con-
cerned in the robbery for the reason
that none of the lights We're turned out.
The probabilities are that one of the
men stood on Park street in front of the
store ready to give warning should any
OF the policemen put IN an appearance.
The cash register was opened and 40
cents in change was taken. The thieves
evidently had a wagon handy because it
