STOCKS AND BONDS.

New York. May 1O.-The effect of the
workers seemed to kill speculative in
ierest in the stock market today. Prices
vent lower in some cases, notably SO,
but the volume of the liquidation was
trivial and was rather less in the coal
crs than in some other departments of
the list. There were some large lndlVld-
ual selling orders in Union Pacific, $.
Paul and Il number OF other prominent
stocks, in which a speculative party mas
been active recently, seemingly on the
ASSUMPTION that dividend increases were
to be looked for in those stocks. tn
Unexpectedly poor showing by the banks
had much the same effect on stocks,
causing struggling declines on light sell
ing. The opinion was heard that the
anthracite operators prefer a strike at
this time, if one is inevitable. rather
than to have it in the fall. This does
not chime with the confident assurance
that was professed in Wall Street that
there would be no strike at all.
The strike is not taken very
grave!y even now, as is shown by
he effect on the stocks of the coal car
rying roads. The loss of over $6,oO0.000
in cash reserves. compared with estimates
based on the known movements of cur
rency as reported by the banks them
selves of about 50. 900, 600 was rather
vaguely attributed to local movements.

1t is found to have been run into by a

that seven passenger cars were burned,
a fireman and engineer killed, and sew

greatly exaggerated.
The trains due from Charlotte were
also delayed several hours by a wreck
of a train of fiat cars, near Poundred, a

IS understood, broke in two, al delay
was caused in clearing the track.

The Early PiOneersof ofNOme


In the winter of 1898 go, about J0 men mades their homes here. They spent the winter in locating claims on neigh boring creeks, ard were contented withal, though grub wa, not plentiful or of great variety.
 On March 2s, 1899, Anvil City town site was laid out, u survey having been made by J. M. Davidson. On April 4, the day the town.ite was thrown open, by mutual consent fer the location of town lot-, considerable excitement pre- vailed. Anvil City to~n,ite, now Il part of the incorporated city of Nome, ex- tended from Dry Creek on the west to what is now known as Hunter way on the east. At noon on April 4, 1898, a shot was fired, and then began tho scramble for lots. The lot on which the first Iostoflice stood, on D street, was located by Harry Owen. and he do- mated part of it for ''po.to!lice pnI- po-es," with the understanding that the postotfice should remain there for four years.
 George N. Wright was the first post master, but he resigned in the summer of 1900, being succeeded by his brother, Joseph H. Wright.
