BoURSE SLEEPS FOR A WEEK
All Departments Exhibit stasnation
which Borders on
Lethargy.

BERLIN, April 6.-The phenomenal sue
cess of the Russian loan has not Influenced
the bourse and all departments during the
last week exhibited stagnation bordering
on lethargy. The hopes of those who looked
for an Improvement in business with the
new quarter have been sharply disap-
pointed. The unfavorable situation of the
coal trade continues to grow and in West
phalia numerous further discharges OF
operatives have been announced for April
10. The conviction also gains ground that
the Improvement in the iron market will
not realize expectations.
The above conditions depressed iron and
coal shares during the last week and al
most without exception Industrial shares
were lower.
The shares OF all banks fell several points
during the week. Foreign rentes showed a
sporadic activity. MeXicans were very
firm. Chinese improved upon the payment
of an installment of the indemnity. The
attempts to bull Canadian Pacific shares
failed. Transvaal railway certificates were
bought considerably for London account.
The shares of the North German Lloyd
Steamship company and the Hamburg
American Steam Packet company weak
ened during the week, the increases in the
capital of these companies being unpopular.
Much attention was given to the plans OF
the North German Lloyd company to Sc
cure a coal mine to furnish Its own coal
supply.
The money market has grown easier. The
private rate of discount stood all last week
at Ia per cent. Call none reached 2h per
is expected. The payment of the Russian
loan will scarcely change the situation, as
this money will remain In the Berlin bank
for the present.

At Plymouth Congregational church Sun

which tend to bling the modern church
into dlsesteem with the general public,
mentioning among other things "cut rate

say that. except TO get our missionary So

DIES MONIES GREETS JOE QUINN

Quinn, manager for the Des Moines ball
club, arrived In the city yesterday and was
met by a large number of his old friends
who knew him we'll when he was a player
on the Des Moines team years ago. A
meeting of the stockholders was held to
meet him and the member of the team
who have arrived. 1t is arranged that prac-
tice for the base ball season will be begun
here in a few days and all the preliminaries
are now completed.
Charles O'Leary, who has signed to play
shortstop for the Des Moines base ball
team the coming season, arrived in the city
from Chicago yesterday the picture of
health. II never felt better In my life,'
said the little shortstop as he smoked a
cigar In front of the Iowa house this morn
ing.
II nave been doing systematic training
the past winter and I feel capable of put
ting up the best game this year that |
have ever done. I am glad to get back to
Des Moines because l always feel-amonR

astrous season last year, but there will be
none of that this year. We have a good
team and we will pull together. That is the
only way to play winning ball and that is
what we will do"

William L. Roberts latest drama OF

the offering at the Boyd tonight and Tues
day night. "At Valley Forge" has won for
Itself 4 praise seldom accorded a dramatic
composition. The story is said to be one OF
true heart interest and genuine feeling set
in an environment of romantic and de-
lightful comedy. From the beginning to
the end the dramatic intensity Of the story
developes itself In a series OF stirring cli-
MAKES which follow each other in logical
continuity. The scenical effects are said
to be elaborate and costly and true to the
atmosphere Of the localities in which the
play Is laid. Messrs. Butler and Mann
promise a cast that is entirely in keeping
with the excellence of the production and
the requirements Of the play itself.

London Money Market.

LONDON, April 6.-As was expected, the
turn of the years first quarter brought
somewhat easier money and operators were
enabled to repay co, 200, 900 to the bank. But
with $4,000, 900 still owing, the budget pro-
posals not yet revealed and the new loan
still undecided, It is hard to gauge accu-
rately the future position.
The Stock exchange has not improved
since the Easter holidays. The chief fea-
ture last week was "a sharp revival in
American railroad shares, but the opera
lions of Friday revealed. a total absence
of these stocks on this side, consequently,
even IL London wanted to take advantage
of the rise to sell. there is no real oppor-
tunity, and the recollection of the North
ern Pacific deal of a year ago prevents
operators from yielding to the temptation
OF dealing I'm American stock which they
cannot instantly produce when IL is needed.
Wall street is thus left In unchallenged
control of any movement it chooses to in
%augurate.
Other sections OF the Stock exchange dis
played little interest. The dealings In home
rails, home funds and industrial shares
were limited. Mining shares were very
quiet during the last week on the absence
of further peace news.
