ters that the coal strike had at last
reached the point where the negotia-
tions for settlement were actually I'M
der way. For this last rumor there
appeared to be little or no foundation
according to the individual and collec-
tive statements Of the leading operators
made after the regular weekly meet
ing.
Another influence for better prices
was the decline in call money, rates,
though during the morning loans were
made as high as 10 per cent. A large
part of the days loans were made at
around 10 per cent, and the rate at the
close went down to 2, but this was
really nominal. no money being plac
ed at that figure.
Great Gains in Standards.
Opening prices were better all the
way from fraction to five points.
Wide operations, in which blocks of
two thousand, three thousand and five
thousand shares changed hands, were
numerous. The greatest gains were
in the standard railway shares, notably
st. Paul, Louisville &s Nashville (Which
bore the brunt of the previous days S
pounding), Missouri Pacific, Union
Pacific, the coalers, and number Of
specialties.
On the floor of the stock exchange
the greatest excitement and activity
prevailed during the first hour. Brok-
ers on the short side were covering
with all possible speed, and the bull
faction was in absolute control. The
list manifested vacillating tendency
soon after the first bulge, and many Of
the active stocks, whose initial gains
had been the largest, receded from 1
to points.
The opening rate for call money was
II per cent, but soon advanced to Is,
creating general confusion among
those committed to higher prices.
Sensation From Washington.
The most sensational operations de-
veloped in the afternoon on news from
Washington that the president and
his cabinet had taken steps to term1-
nate the coal strike. In spite of the
absence of any confirmation the mar
ket seized upon this announcement,
and with the coal stocks in the lead
the entire list shot upward. The mar
ket developed a buoyant tone in the
last hour, though operations were con-
fined largely to the coalerS, which were
heavily traded in, and closed At practl-
cally the best prices of the day. The
davis operations were in excess of l.
100000 shares.
Secretary Shaw's visit to the street
and his talks with the leading banking
interests helped in no small measure to
restore confidence. Local banks loan
ed moderately.
The Louisville G. Nashville Deal.
In announcing the close of the Louis
vile & Nashville deal, George w. Per-
kins, of ]. P. Morgan & Co., said:
''The Atlantic Coast Line company
is going to take 100000 shares Of
Louisville & Nashville stock. A syn
dicate has been formed to take over
the shares, and at the terms previous
ly announced-$150 share"
Mr.. Perkins would not say what pro-
vision had been made for the protec-
ton of the minority interest, but it was
stated by another member of the Nor
gan firm that the rights of every
shareholder in that company would be
conserved.

STRATTON MAY QUIT
SUIT FOR 100000
Rumor of Compromise In the Famous
Suit to Break a MiIIionaire's
Will,

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Sept.
30.-Harry Stratton announced this
afternoon that he had been approached
by one of the executors appointed by
his father in the will with a PROPOSE
ton to compromise the contest case,
and answered that he would withdraw
his suit upon a settlement of $1,000,000.
Attorneys for the executors, admins
traitors and the son have been in con-
ference nearly all day, and the an
nouncement of young Stratton is be-
lieved to be the conclusion that has
been arrived at.
| At o'clock the entire matter was
taken OUT of the county court and
transferred to the district court on a
writ of certiorari issued <by Judge
Cunningham, of the district court. This
| writ was secured by the executors and
was agreed to by stipulation by the ad
ministrators. Judge Orr was notified at
3 o'clock of the action by Attorney
Candy, junior counsel for the execu-
tors.
The bearing of the order is that the
action of the county court is set aside,
that the case now stands just as it did
before the appointment of administra-
tors by Judge Orr, and further the ap-
pointment of the administrators Is
practically annulled. 1t is a virtual VIC
| tory all along for the executors, who
have been defending the dead million
aires will.

THREE TONS OF COAL
STOLEN BY BURGLARS
Philadelphia Thieves spurn JeweIry

Special to The Globe.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. 30.-Af
ter spending the summer at the sea-
shore, H. G. Taylor and family return
ed to their homeat 934 Fairmount ave-
nue., last night, Ito find that burglars
had been in their house, evidently on
Sunday night. Several of the rooms
on the first and second floors had been
entered and household effects were
were overturned. Considerable valua-
BILE sflverware and some jewelry had
lain where the thieves could hardly
help seeing it, but none of it had been
taken.
The burglars were after bigger game
and got it. When Mr.. Taylor went to
the seashore/he left three tons of an
thracite coal in his cellar and during
the last two months he has been con-
graduating himself that he would not
have to worry about the coal strike.
But his fond illusion is gone, for the
buglars, who spurned silverware and
jewels, stole three tons of coal, carry
ing it away in a wagon. The coal cost
Taylor $16.50 when he bought it. 1t
will cost him about three times that
much to replace 1t.

RED WING PASTOR WILL
PREACH IN CHICAGO
Dr.. Driver Unanimously Elected to Take
Charge of the Peoples Church,
Chicago.
Snecial to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
CHICAGO, Sept. Boy unanimous
vote the members of the Peoples church
tonight elected the Rev. John Merritt
Driver, of Red Wing, Mimi, their pastor,
to fill the vacancy caused by the resigna-
tion of the Rev. Frank Crane.
The Rev. w. H. Thomas was chairman
and, referring to the Rev. Dr. Driver,
said: II may not have always been the
best judge of a preacher in the past, but
1 am learning. OF this I am sure, that
DR.. Driver is going to be power in Chi
cago and that within six months he will
feel the pulse of this city as no man has
ever done before. He is sincere, earnest
and full of the love of humanity. He was
the second most attractive and popular
lecturer in America, but withdrew from
the lecture field when his son died. In
this he was wrong, for we have need of
men who have knowledge of the pangs
and struggles of life. When DR.. Driver
felt his call to the priesthood he went to
Boston with only SIS in his pocket. To
attain his end he shouldered the pick
even shoveled coal and won his way
through the CRIME and toll of work. 1t is
such men that we need today, men who
know the lives Of the people,
AT the conclusion of DR.. Thomas speech
the call that was extended to DR.. Driver
Sunday last was ratified. Dr. Driver
will preach his first sermon as pastor of
the Peoples church, Oct. 12.

WANTS TO CHOP OFF
EXCHANGE PASSES IN WEST
J. T. Harahan Makes Drastic Sugges-
tion In a Letter.

CHICAGO, Sept. sO.-Executive off,
cials Of the Western lines are considering
the advisability of abolishing- exchange
passes in Western territory. ]. T. Hara-
han, chairman of the local pass committee,
has written letter to Chairman Mahoney,
of the Western pass committee, asking
him to call meeting for the purpose Of
considering the pass agreement for 1903
In the letter Mr.. Harahan suggests that
under existing conditions it might be best
to abolish all exchange passes in the en-
tire Western territory, from Chicago to
the Pacific coast and from the Canadian
border to the gulf.
Mr.. Harahan points out that the pass
agreement is likely to be reaffirmed in
trunk line territory for the coming year,
and if so the Western lines will again be
placed at a disadvantage. During 1902
the trunk lines have maintained their
expense of the Western lines. The West
ern lines have at the same ne time been com
travelling men in trunk line territory.
This, Chairman Harahan asserts. is mani
festly an injustice and one under which
the Western lines should not rest the
coming year.

Judge Court of Appeals. JOHN c. GRAY

SARATOGA, N. Y, Sept. 30.-This
is the Democratic state ticket promul-
gated tonight from the headquarters of
Senator Hill. 1t was the result of a
long conference of many of the state
leaders, in which Senator Hill and
Hugh Mclaughlin took leading part.
The announcement of this tentative
ticket was received quietly by the
throngs in the hotel corridors, and later
rumors were circulated that when 1t
got before the convention it might not
stand. The Kings county delegates,
led by Senator McCarren, were promi-
ment in talking of prospective changes
Despite this, the Hill people went Sc
renely on making arrangements for the
nomination of the ticket. In all of this
preliminary work Tammany took no
part, and in fact, after the first confer
ence, Kings county absented itself
Hill Has Little to Say.
Senator Hill during the evening did
not affirm or deny that the slate as
given out by those in the room was
absolutely that which the convention
would finally nominate. One of the
rumors which sprang up after the slate
was announced was that Kings county
was preparing a bolt and that several
of the delegates would refuse to abide
blythe Coler decision or vote on the
unit system. Senator McCarren, in
answering this, said: "It is useless to
try to disguise the fact that several
members of our delegations are not
heartily in favor of Mr.. Coler. We
still believe that Judge Parker would
accept the nomination if confronted
with the fact that the convention want
ed him by acclamation. Still don't
think we will break the unit rule"
Important news of the night from
semi official sources, but lacking au-
thorization, was that the committee on
platform had decided to declare for a
1,000-ton barge canal and that the
committee on credentials, to avoid fur
ther trouble, would seat the delegation
headed by William S. Devery.
Devery Said to Have Won.
At late hour tonight it was rumor
ed about the corridors of the Grand
Union hotel that prominent party lead
ers, including John b. Stanchfield and
Elliot Danforth, had gone to Senator
Hill and informed him that in their
judgment it would be political suicide
to keep Devery out Of the convention,
and that he had succeeded in creating
a strong sentiment in his favor by his
gentlemanly tactics since his arrival
here. Mr.. Hill is said to have told
them that he had considered the mat
ter and that possibly it would be best
to permit Devery and his fellow dele
gates to take seats as the regular rep
resentatives from the Ninth. This
could not be confirmed, as all the
men mentioned positively declined to
discuss the matter.
Devery held a reception on the porch
of his hotel tonight and many took
advantage of the opportunity to shake
hands with him and assure him of their
support.
A committee on resolutions was ap-
pointed, consisting of fifty members,
each representing a senatorial district.
