New york stock Gossip.

Reported by III. Holbert Sc Son: It is
gratifying. that the banks suffered put
little as shown In their statement. The
heavy decrease in loans is conservative.
and of course the decrease of deposits
at this time was to be expected. The
street regards the indications as hopeful
and hooks have advanced with consider
able strength. 1t is almost unnecessary
for us to repeat the hopeful views that
we have had on the market for the past
ten days. In our judgment the outlook
is satfsfactorv and will continue to be so.

Rose Couhlan.

One of the very best society plays of the last decade has been reserved by Miss Rose Coghlan for her present South ern tour and will be presented at the Jefferson Theatre New Years matinee and night. It Is eight years since Rose Coghlan has appeared south of Wash ington. Her Forget Me Not" which she will present on the occasion of her visit to this city, enables herself and company to appear to the very best ad- vantage. There is no other woman on the American stage today who can rank with Rose Coghlan in such parts as Stephanie De Mohrivart. Her superb art and power to express human emotions have enabled her to score a tremendous triumph in every city she has so far visited this season. Forget Me Not" has received an elaborate production at the Fifth Avenue Theatre, New York, which has been retained in it's entirety for Rose Coghlan's present Southern tour. Her supporting company has been chosen from among the prominent actors and actresses of New York city.

"San Toy"

On Tuesday, December 31, the offering at the Jefferson Theatre will be that de- lightful Chinese English musical comedy. San Toy" which has been one or the greatest musical hits in years at Daily s Theatre. Its engagement here Will nave the advantage of a splendid cast and an enlarged orchestra The scene of san Toy" is laid in China, and the plot has it's origin in. an edict issued by the Elm peror of that country, ordering the forma- ton of a corps of young women to pro- tect his majesty's sacred person from the fascination of the English women Man darin Yen How to prevent the enlist ment of his daughter San Toy, disguises her as a boy her sex being only known to Capt. Bobby Preston. a young English officer, with whom she Is in love. The ruse only brings on further trouble, for a second decree orders the Mandarin's son to be sent to PelSin, where San Toy goes, and after many complications she is rescued from her predicament Around the plot the authors have built one of the best musical comedies we have had. It Is a capital entertainment In every way The plot Is odd and original. and filled with humor and sweetness. There is the finest array of lyrics that any one has turned out since Gilbert. Every one is a gem, rhythmic, whimsical and battery. The score abounds In pretty tuneful numbers of light. jngly airs that stick in one's memory. The company is one of rare ex- cellence and it embodies many talented artists, among them being Samuel Col lins, George K. Fortescue, Melville Stew art. Sarony Lambert. R. S. Piggott, Paula Edwards Marie Celeste, Elgie Bowen and Isobel Hall.

Miss Viola Allen Is to appear at the Jefferson theater on Thursday evening next in her great romantic play, "In the Palace of the King" Lorimer Stod- dard's dramatization of F.

Don John, just returned from his great victory at Granada finds himself still in love with Dona Dolores de Men doza, daughter of the captain of the household guard who is blindly devoted to Philip, Don Johns half brother.

 Why Marquis ito Refused Pass. From the Phladelphia Post.
 Marquis Ito. the Japanese statesman, said while in St. Paul recently that of all the American customs that impressed him as peculiar the free transportation extended by the railroads to this country seemd most odd.
 why" said he, should railroad give away tickets? avery bit of mileage to them is the same as piece of cloth to dry goods firm. In Japan every one has to pay for his transportation. I never rode on a Japenese railroad in my life for nothing
 when the marquis and party decided to proceed east from St. Paul over the Milwaukee line the officials of the road extended to the distinguished Japanese and his companions the courtesy of the line and informed Mir Itos private secre- tary that the tickets and the car would cost nothing. The secretary was vsbly embarrassed and shook his head dubious ly as he left the office of the company to convey the startling information to his master. Shortly afterward Marquis Ito appeared at the railroad office and in sisted on paying for the tickets and the use of the special car.
 "I have no claim on your esteemed company" said the Oriental. "I should not feel right in travelling over your most excellent railroad without payIng for the great pleasure"
 And so the Milwaukee officials were obliged to carry the marquis and his party over their line in the same way as If they were just plain, everyday Amer leans

 "Fifty-oents, gasped the Alderman. What do you take me for? A man with coin to burn? Why. In Chicago can cali up hades for 50 cents"

 People generally here are in favor of granting Mrs. Harrison the pension, and the only objections urged are that she Is already worth $l50 900. and that she was not Gen. Harrison's wife when he oc- cupied the White House.
 Russell Harrison manifested most of his opposition by discussing the matter in rather an open manner, but usually to personal friends. He is in Washington at present and a dispatch from there says that he positively disclaims any apposi- tion to the pension.

The basket ball team from Perdue Uni versity, Lafayette, Ind, defeated the Birmingham Athletic Club team last night by score of 27 to 13.
 Notwithstanding the continuous down pour of rain, two hundred spectators wit messed the contest, and though they all pulled hard the local athletes could not be saved. The game was close and ex- citing and the Birmingham boys played equally as good ball as their opponents, but were unfortunate in being unable to put the ball in the basket when a goal was in sight
 Members of the Birmingham team at tribute their defeat to lack of practice in throwing. their team work being right up to the notch. They had many chances

and that Dolores shall be dishonored In the next scene the friendship of the court fool for Don John and Dolores is shown. The lovers make their plans for a secret marriage by the cardinal, and Dolores, in a powerful scene with Don John, persuades him not to rebel against Philip, as he has resolved to do in order that he might set up a kingdom of his own, where his right to marry Dolores would be unquestioned
 The action now changes to Don Johns apartments, where Dolores and the car dinal have hidden themselves. The king appears and tell to Don John slanderous tales of Dolores. The cardinal comes out of his concealment to reproach the king for the injustice he has done Do- lores. He accuses him of the murder of his son and his queen, whereupon Philip strikes him with his dagger and he falls apparently dead. Philip induces Don John to take the responsibility of the supposed murder on the ground that a war between church and state would result. if it were known the pope's rep sentative had fallen by the kings hand. Dolores in her concealment Is a witness to the episode In the next scene, before an assemblage in the throne room. Don John, in spite of the protests of Dolores, declares that he has killed the cardinal, whereupon he is placed under arrest Dolores in her de- spair mounts the throne and declares Don Johns innocence. but only so much of her story is believed as reflects on his honor. cleverly devised incident of the scene is the exchange of defiance between Dolores and the princess as they meet in the court dance. In the closing scene Philip treacherously condemns Don John to death, but through the faithful ness of the court fool proof is placed in the hands of Dolores by which she can expose the plots of the princess. She also forces Philip to release Don John by threatening to tell the court all she knows about the cardinals death. At this juncture Philip, by force, has her at disadvantage, when 1t is discovered that the cardinal was not killed, and the triumph of Don John and Dolores is complete
