THE management of the Elkton
Opera House has passed into
Il the hands of Il new organiZa-
ton to be known as the Elkton
Theatre Company. The plans of the conf
pany are to give Elkton first class at
fractions, and cater to local entertain
ments, concerts, etc. Certain improve
ments will be made that will make the
property all the more attractive. and the
management guarantees that nothing in
the line of Objectionable entertainments
will he booked. The popular Elkton or
chestra will be attached to the house.
The Cecil Wing believes in clean
amusements for the people, it believes
that clean entertainments make clean
people, it believes that Il good concert
and well sung oratorio and II forcibly
delivered lecture and good music, bright
en- the lives of all, make us better. more
kindly disposed, and stronger to over
come the cares of our every day life.
Success to the Eliton Theatre Company.
and may it always uphold the high stand
ard which it now proposes for the opera
house, and there is no reason why our
people should not lend their every aid rs
long as the management deserves it.

Heavy Buying Follows Settlement or
 The Coat strike.
 New York. Oct. I6.-The formal an- nouncement that the coal miners rep resentatives had agreed to submit their difficulties with the coal operators to the board of arbitration appointed by President Roosevelt removed any lin gering doubts that existed in Wall street as to a possible hitch in the ef- forts to bring about satisfactory s0- lution of the matter. Spectators ac- cordingly began to figure on the benefi- cial effects on general business that would follow the resumption of active mining operations. Adyices from abroad that the situation was viewed there with great cheerfulness intensified the optimistic feeling and caused heavy buying of the general market. London followed up by an active and strong market. Prices opened with rush up ward and huge blocks of stocks were bought at rising prices.
 The opening in the coalers was wide. i Initial gains were well over a point throughout the active list and after a temporary setback the rise was renew ed with vigOr and advances of ? and even points became numerous. The buying movement embraced all of the usual favorites and was centered in va rious groups heavily at times, particu- larly in the Pennsylvania group.

It was reported that the amount involved would be about $l5,OO0,OOO which would be rendered by syndl- cate on satisfactory terms. Room shorts showed much concern over the heavy absorption of stocks and cover ed pretty extensively in many of the | leaders. | Monetary conditions to-day were more favorable to borrowers and there were more liberal offerings of time money below recent rates. Prominent features in the days movement were the Pacific stocks, Louisville and Nash vilie, Sugar, Illinois Central, the high priced coal stocks and St. Paul. The latter was marked up above and the latter stock was also conspicuously strong. Sterling exchange rates to-day were somewhat steadier owing to a rather smaller volume of commercial | bills.

 taken, one block of five thousand shares

 hands at 80, the highest of the day.
