NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York. December 2S.-Today's
broad and active stock market resulted
in small changes IN prices Of stocks,
owing to the very large amount Of
profit-taking sales which were made
The market was an excellent one for
realizing profits, which are of tempting
proportions, as a result Of the consid-
cradle rise in prices the last few days.
There was a vigorous and well distrib-
uted demand which absorbed the offer
ings without serious inroads upon
prices. The continued recovery in
Sugar, in which the dealings were again
large. sustained the market. The un-
eXpectedly strong bank statement made
the closing strong, after the realizing
had commenced to make some impress
sion upon prices. Amalamated Copper
tailed to hold it's gain and closed only
y higher after having been at one
time 1S higher. Sugar saved a net
gain of 2A from an extreme advance Of
3k. In the railroad list, Reading was
the feature on a continuance of the re-
cent buying attributed to banking inter
ests. The stock closed IL higher.
Baltimore and Ohio and Missouri Pa
cific were notably strong. Generally the
realizing in railroad stocks kept the
gains within moderate limits. The
compilation of returns of earnings for
thirty-seven railroads for the third
week in December shows decrease OF
3.46 per cent compared with last year
This is the first time a decrease has
been shown for the corresponding pc
riod since 1886. Other roads reporting

A RED LETTER DAY
In the History of the Southern Edu-
catfOnnl Association.

Columbia s. c.. December 27.-This
has been a great day IN the history Of
the Southern Educational Association.
a. one time this afternoon at differ
ent auditoriums and halls in the city
there were eleven different meetings in
progress. with distinguished speakers
delivering addresses at each. The main
sessions today. too. were above the
average and were attended by large
audiences.
The feature of the Gay was, of course,
the address in the theatre auditorium
in the morning of the United States
commissioner w. T. Harris. who made
the subject Of GEOGRAPHY in the
School, truly fascinating. II the af-
ternoon he attended the gathering Of
the kindergartens at the Columbia
female college and made another fine
address to the women teachers. At the
morning session, too, superintendent
Lawton B. Evans, Of Augusta, Ga. de-
liVered a very forceful paper on THE
Mission of the Rural school" Hon. w.
n. Sheats, state superintendent of pub
lie instruction of Florida followed with
ar able address on School SuperviS-
ion." An admirable paper by State
superintendent Toon. of North caro-
lima, on this subject also was read.
At the evening session after good
address by Miss Elizabeth M. Getz, of
Charleston, on Modern Art in Public
Schools" DR.. Charles w. Dabney, pres
ident of the University Of Tennessee,
delivered brilliant address on THE
Pr Ioblem of Our Public Schools"
There was a splendid audience and all
heartily enjoyed it. In the audience
was the venerable DR.. James Woodrow,
one of the most distinguished scientists
of the country.
DR.. McIver read a synopsis of DR.. J.
NJ. L. Curry's able paper on Free
Schools for all the People"
In the after President Ira Remsen,
Of Johns Hopkins University, delivered
to an appreciative audience an address
on What Should the Southern Secon-
dairy Schools Attempt in Science Teach
irg." Nothing during the session has
been more enjoyed. DR.. Ellis. of the
University Of Texas, delighted many
also with his talk Psychology Course
