New York, Sept 23-The stock mar
ket to-day, for the first time since the
pinch in money rates began. gave evil
dence of extensive pool liquidation
For a time in the morning the effect
was retarded by the strength shown
in st. Paul. That stock almost at the
opening sold l per cent. above yes
terdays close. and it made frequent
demonstra lions of strength throughout
the day, at times encouraging feeble
rallies in the general list. 1t finally
yielded to the influence of the general
current and lost nearly 2 per cent. for
the day. Dealings in Missouri Pacific
were on a large scale, and it's per-
sistent weakness exercised consider
able influence on sentiment. 1t was
pressed for sale and lost nearly 5 per
cent. net. Texas and Pacific, Wabash
preferred and st. Louis Southwestern
preferred finally yielded sharply. Other
Southwestern stocks and Western
Union were unfavorably affected to an
important extent. Efforts to put press
ure on Southern and Union Pacific sue
ceeded to the extent of breaking "a
in former and in latter. The entire
railroad list succumbed to the influ
ence of tight money and the calling
of loans by banks. In the industrials
there was a general sharp decline after
a period of early comparatively strong
resistance to downward tendency.
Sugar broke 3 per cent and Copper 2.
In the final dealings vigorous bear eff
forts were made to uncover stop loss
orders, and as a rush of selling for
both sides, market closed weak. Total
sales of the day were 1,07S,300.

The big British tramp steamer
Lime Branch. which was described in
the Bulletin last week, and a picture of
which was printed. arrived here at l
o'clock this morning from Newcastle,
n. S, w. with Goals. The water front
is willing TO give her the palm for be-
ing the Notwithstanding craft that has
eveDbeen in the harbor In appearance
she is a Veritable nightmare to gener-
ally accepted marine ideas. She has no
masts to support her cargo booms and
derricks, but instead five sets of SET
tiers, or stands-circular steel castings
along both sides and rising probably
SO feet above the main deck. Bulk
cargo may be put into the ship through
these, and for handling other freight
they are so distributed that their
booms have access to all of the
matches. AT a distance the Lime Branch
looks like a cross between a regulation
type of an ocean cargo carrier and
numerous double-furneled river boats
common on Western and Southern
states waters.-San Francisco Bulletin.

ITnfavorable weather has keot a
number of schooners in port for some
time. They have been loaded and wait
ing to proceed for ten days, but were
unable to do so on account of wrong
winds. These vessels carry a large
amount of lumber, probably an aggre-
gate of about 1900, 900 feet. This is one
of the drawbacks to the sailing vessel,
which must be reckoned with in char
tering. Unless ample time is given ex
porters will not contract to land lum-
her within a specified time on
schooner. With steamers more certain
calculations as to time may be made.
The tug Vigilant towed the schooner
Vanlear Black from Brunswick to Sa-
Nannah yesterday. She is consigned to
Wylly e Gabhett to load lumber. The
Vigilant returned to Brunswick
AS the steamboat Clifton was pulling
out from her dock on her return with
an excursion crowd to Beaufort Mon
day night an unknown colored man
fell overheard. He was not very good
swimmer, and is reported to have
about given up the fight for life when
his wife, a brawny negress, leaped
overheard, rescued the unfortunate
husband and hauled him aboard the
Clifton.

Hundreds of Vessels Awaiting Coal
CargOes.

The already large fleet of coasting
vessels in port was yesterday increased
by many additional arrivals, says The
Philadelphia Record To one looking
down the Delaware river the spars of
the numerous coasting craft at anchor
resembled the traditional forest of
masts. Never at one time have there
been so many coasting craft in port
nearly all being carriers of large sizes.
Besides sail craft. there are at least
fifty sea-going coal barges waiting
their turn to load. In the vicinity of
Port Richomnd and Cooper's Point an
other large fleet is at anchor.
A number of owners of vessels have
discharged their crews rather than in
cur the expense of keeping them on
board. until their turn comes to load. 1t
is estimated that the total amount of
tonnage in port disengaged last night
was $4,000 tons.
The demand for bituminous coal is
unprecedented, and besides the sail
craft, many steamers are arriving
from outports to load at Port Rich
mond and Greenwich Piers.
