ENTERPRISE.

Enterprise, January 27.--A goodly
sign of the probable return of the
good old days to Enterprise is the Wis.,
it to the Brock house of one of the
old frequenters of tenyea ago, Cap
tain j. Harry Wyndham-Walker, of
the 4th Royal Irish) Dragon Guards,
from London, England, who with his
friend, Mr.. Frank Storer, enjoyed
some fishing on the st Johns river, as
in days gone by. We/look for a re-
turn visit from them again pretty
soon, as they are old friends of Mr..
deBary, with whom they usually
spend good part of their time while
here.
Other guests at the Brock house re.
Gently were Mr.. and Mrs. o. c. Saffell,
MIR. and Mrs. S. p. jennings, New
Castle, Ind; Mrs. B. M. Brossek, De.
Land; F. S. Jrby, Atlanta, Ga.
One of the two convicts who recent.
ly escaped from MOnro's camp near
Titusville was captured by one of our
congenial railroad inspe tors on Tues.
day. after having stripped the clothes
line of Mr.. Padget near Enterprise
junction, for the purpose of effecting
a change in his cloth; ! to facilitate
his escape. He was handed over to
one of the camp keepers, who convey
ed him back to Titusville. Ruffians
of this stamp should be well watched
for by all citizens of the state and
their capture effected, even If neces
sary to drop them in their tracks
when so doing, as it is Impossible to
say where their evil del.'edations
gay end if permitted to roam the
state at their own free will.

FINANCIAL GOSSIP

Watson, from New York: Spectators for a
decline has been very confident that the court
would refuse to modify the merger decree and
thus prevent the payment of dividends on North
ern Securities stock. a considerable short inter-
est had betn. made on this assumption. The de-
cision of the court to-day therefore. permitting
the payment Of dividends removed quite a weight
from the market and the feeling in conservative
circles this evening is that the Securities case
as a factor in speculation has lost its influence.
as it will be several months before the United
States supreme court will dispose Of it.: Mean.
time it Is believed that there will be increased
confidence in the theory that the price move
nlent will be governed BY influences which are
usually potent at this season. The first of these
is improving monetary conditions. 1t is learned
tonight that the Union Trust company to-day
made loans at AZ per cent for four months on
strictly railroad collateral. With the banks gain
ing freely from. the treasury, and with larger
receipts from the interior probable, it is good
opinion that time money will be obtainable at
this rate IN the nesr future good mixed col
la teral as against to 51S per cent but recently
quoted. 2; Crop news and railroad earnings con
tnue, excellent; the heavy increase in the latter
for the second week in April having pronounced
effect on sen timent. 4 r., a..--- . - -
