Murphy a Co.'S Stock letter.

New York, Dec. 30.-The feature of
the market to-day was the strength
and prominence of local stocks. The
opening of speculation was irregular,
bust mostly lower and dull. The re-
actions, however, did not reach impor-
tant limits, Notwithstanding that call
money rates opened at high figures.
Before the noon hour prices had be-
gun to harden and in the afternoon
vigorous buying of the Erie and the

MARINE INTELLIGENCE.
Local and General News of ships
and shipping.

A number Of coal laden schooners
are bound for Savannah and the deal
ers are on the lookout for them. The
demand for coal at present is good. and
as more cold weather is expected the
coal men want 10 be in readiness to
take care Of their trade. Coal at sea
will not aid them in doing this. The
long time required in making the pas
sage down recently is the rough
weather that has prevailed along the
coast. Much damage has been done TO
vessel property in some cases. and
long delay has been caused others. The
next few days is expected to bring a
number of coal laden vessels into port
Speaking Of the up-river steamboat
business yesterday an owner said the
season so far has been very satisfsc-
tory from his standpoint. The move
ment Of freight has continued good.
and has been distributed between the
competing lines.
The demand for sail tonnage for the
foreign trades continues light in all de-
partments and rates are quotably IN
changed. In the coastwise trade there
is a moderate demand for both coal
and lumber carriers, and rates in each
Instance were firm. For steamers
there is but little inquiry in any of
the various trades. Rates are noIni-
nal in most instances and without
quotable change. Business is very
light.
The Rebecca Palmer, the largest of
the five-masted schooners. sailed from
Baltimore lately for Boston after hav-
ing been detained in port fifty-two days
waiting for coal. She has aboard $500
tons of soft coal, about 500 tons short
Of her capacity. but will receive the
freight money for her full capacity
The vessel arrived in port Oct 20
During the sixteen days previous TO

ALLEGHENY NOT In 1T.
University Boys Easily Defeat
the Visitors.

The Game not Exciting-SeOre Four
teen to Seven In Favor of Home Team
The Boys Have Gone on Their West
ern Trip.
The Varsity easily won the second
game from Allegheny College Satur-
day. The score looks less like foot
bali results than iG did on the pre-
ceding day, but the defeat was no
less humiIiating for the visitors, who,
on the whole, were a nice bunch of
fellows. The locals crossed the plate
for Ii runs, most of them earned
Griffith pitched good game for the
Pennsylvanians, but the fielding be
hind him was horrible, and towards
the close of the game, the locals hit
the ball for home runs, and three
bases at will,
The feature of the game, from the
VarsiUy's standpoint, was the pres
ence in the box of Core, the second
teams twirler. He pitched a good
game, and has all the ear marks of
conner. The eight hits made off
him were well scattered, and but for
eight bases on balls, Allegheny
would not have scored. He struck
cut eight men.
The team left at noon Sunday for
Columbus, Ohio, where they meet
Ohio State today. Notre Dame, Wis
consin University, Beloit, and two
games with Depauw, on Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday ald
Saturday of this week respectively
conclude the Western trip.
Glenn Snodgrass went with the
team to sub in place of John Purin-
ton, who was unable to go. Other
wise. there were no changes.

A. j. HOFFMAN ROBBED.
He is Member of the Dean and HOff-
man Company.

On Thursday night last Albert
j. Hoffman who is a member of the
Dean d Hoffman Co. who are we'll
known here was sand bagged and
robbed within few steps of his
home in Niagara Falls.
Mr.. Hoffman had been at the South
end of the city on business and had
been kept out later than usual and
fortunately was 10 time to catch the
last trolley car going North toward
his home. After alighting from the
car he turned into enthT street to go
to his home when without any warn
ing he was struck terrible blow IN
theback of the head and was grappled
bytwo men.
Although Mr.. Hoffman is large
muscular man and would hove beaten
his assailants on a fair field the at
tack came so suddenly and so violent
ly that he was overcome. He can re-
member that the men rifled his pock-
cts securing onla ten dollars and also
his watch. They then fled and have
SO far eluded arrest although the
police are keeping sharp lookout for
them.

SOME BUILDING NOTES.
The John c. Price Building
Nearing Completion.

Forty Houses to be Built at Once on
the Peninsula There are More than
One Hundred Buildings In Course Of
Construction and Another Hundred
Will be Started Soon.
This fine weather is giving a great
impetus TO building operations in and
around the city. More new dwellings
and office buildings are expected TO be
completed at Morgantown this year
than in any previous year in the his
tory of the town.
One Of the big Office buildings now
well along toward completion is the
John G. Price building at Front and
Walnut street. Gerard & Strong of
ConnellsvilIe, Pa, completed the
brick work this week and are how
moving their machinery away They
were employed by Darrah Brothers,
contractors of this place who had the
contract for this structure. The roof
has been put on and the plumbing and
gas fitting and electric wiring will be
completed this week. James H, Ken
nedy did the plumbing and Henry
Moreland the electric wiring. w. II.
Ross has the contract for painting.
Geo. B. Kramer will do the plastering.
He expects to have the whole build
ing lathed and ready for plastering by
the last OF next week. 1t is hoped to
have the building ready for occupancy
by mid summer.
WnrK On c1par Sfrpntt,na ,Uoc dalau
ed about three months in the begin
ming by the excayating Mr.. Darrah
says, and the first brick was not laid
until December IL, 1901 The walls
are built of red brick trimmed in buff
brick making a very pretty front on
the Walnut street side. The struc-
ture fronts fifty feet on Walnut by 90
on Front, is three stories high and has
a basement under the entire floor
space. There are two large store
rooms on the first floor with commo-
dious cellars, and big basement store
room besides. The second and third
floors will be converted into Office and
residence rooms. There will be %
Office rooms on the Two floors and
Glk III I6SlueuCe TODluSs Lit UulluiuR
will be a very handsome one when
completed, and will add to the value
of other property in that section of
the city.
The mason work for the Acme Pub
fishing Co.'S new Office on Front street
is in course of construction. This
will be another addition to the prop
erty values on this street.
New dwellings are springiDg up in
every section OF the city, and con-
tractors for all the work cannot De
| found.
j. j. Wharton has two neat new
dwellings at lock ten near completion.
Plans are already prepared for forty
new houses to be built in the next
few months at the Marilla glass fac
tory by the Peninsula company. With
all the building that has been done
for several months past, families are
being Kept away from here most all
the time because there are not homes
for them to go to.

Locals and Personals.

IT is said that counterfeit dollars
are circulating in great numbers in
some sections of the state. We
wouldn't know the difference.
CAPT. HARE will sell some personal
property at his farm near the Red
Bridge on Thursday the 18th. The
articles are enumerated in another
column.
IF our good lady friends can solve
the problem of domestic help they
will do great thing for other COM
munities. 1t is to be hoped they will
succeed.
THE big water mains for the new
line to be laid along Chestnut street
are on the ground and the work of
digging the trench will be commenced
soon. The new main will add vastly
to the present water supply probably
more than double it.
THE district meetings held by the
republicans on Saturday were void of
interest as there is no contest the
nomination Of Mr. Dayton being a
foregone conclusion. The delegates
appointed from this county were in
structed for him. The convention
viii be held in Martinsburg on Thurs
day June 9TH.
F. X. O'Kelly is very sick. He
was recently at Delawder's in Gar
rett county and came home feeling
quite well but yesterday was taken
