GREETED themselves in the apartment,
but hearing this unjust accusation, the
Cardinal appears and denounces the
King. Don John is equally vehement
in his protestations, when Philip, in
tending TO stab Don John, accidentally
lays low the Cardinal. Philip, fearing
the Pope's displeasure, compels Don
John to assume the guilt when Dolores
appears, knowing all that has occur
red, and makes protest. In the next
scene Don John acknowledges the
crime, when Dolores mounts the
throne, and relates to the courtiers
what has occurred. revealing, however.

scene Dolores confronts the King and
compels him to sign Don Johns re-

overcome. Miss Aliens gowns are

The friends Of Mr.. Will T. Keogh in

be pleased to learn that he has Just
had constructed, and will manage, the
largest theater in New York city. The

The Railroad to Franklin.
FRANKLIN Press

Our latest information concerning the
railroad is that everything is progressing
as we'll as could be desired. The engin-
GERS reached the line between Georgia
and North Carolina last week and went
back to the section between Tiger and
Clayton where they had previously made
three experimental surveys. They will
have to make profiles and estimates on
each of these in order to determine the
cheapest line, after which they expect to
locate the survey. This will necessarily
take several days The line from Tallulah
Falls to Tiger is practically located,
though q final survey will have to he
made and the pegs set ready for the con-
tractors The final surveys from Clayton
TO the North Carolina line. and thence
onward to Franklin will not be so COM
plicated, and it will not require so much
time, though such work can not be done
in very few days. Many people seem
to be losing faith in the scheme because
contracts have not lbeen let and dirt is not
being moved. 1t requires time and much
labor to make surveys and estimates and
get the preliminary work ready for the
contractors. 1t is expected that contracts
will be let in July and that actual grad
ing will be commenced by the last of July
or the first of August. This is our in
formation from those having the business
in charge.

STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. June 21.-The prospect OF
a better bank statement tomorrow than
has been expected caused a more cheer
full feeling in the stock market today.
Advances were quite wide in some
quarters of the market and there was
an apprecfaa}le increase in the interest
in the market, the dealings again ris-
ing over. the half million mark. The
approximations which have been felt
regarding the effect of the weeks gold
exports were alleviated by the publica-
ticn of the preliminary estimates of the
cash movements of the week, which
showed that the several factors had
CO. operated to offset the outgo OF gold.
The most important of these was large
influx of cash attracted from the int.
rior by the harder money rates here.
This movement has apparently served
to offset the drain to the subTreasury
and left margin of gain for the banks
of over million dollars. The Sub
Treasury operations themselves, al
though they include the payments for
almost $4,000, 600 of gold exported, show
ed an actual Withdrawal from the mar
ket of only $2,291 ,O00 The months
high level of pension payments, the re-
payments for bonds redeemed under
the offer of the Secretary of the Treas
ury and the redemption of checks is
sued against deposits of gold in San
Francisco and Seattle are the offsetting
factors. The changes in the loan item
are of course problematical. Rumors
We're ripe of the liquidation of some
heavy corporate loans. The completion
of the subscription payments on the
new Pennsylvania stock, which was is
sued to reimburse the company for re-
cent purchases of stocks in other COM
panies, affords means for the liquidation
of the large loans incurred While the
purchases were being made The Penn
sylvania collateral loans on this account
were stated at over $4,000, 900 in the an.
nual report and this admittedly had
been added to since. The explicit state
ment was made today that these loans
had been paid this week, but no author
itative information could be obtained
on the subject. The tone of the money
market was easier today. new YER
