Must Fire Light Charges.

In order to minimize the recurrence
OF accidents such as that which occurred
recently on the Iowa, Admiral ONeil,
chief OF the Bureau of Ordinance, has
recommended that hereafter target prac-
tice with the big guns of the navy be
restricted to the use of light charges at
shorter ranges and the substitution OF
the sub-calibre tube whenever practic-
able.
In this he is at direct variance with
Admiral Dewey, who, on February 10
last said:
"Sub-calbre practice is not enough.
The men don't take interest in this
make believe gunnery. They want to
zee the shot hit"

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET
As Reported by Jacob Berry & Co.

As Reported by Jacob Berry & Co.
 New York, Sept. 3.-The market re- ceived a setback this morning on the unexpected announcement that the Bank of England had raised it's rate of discount from to 4 per cent. This was evident with the purpose of pro- tecting the gold reserve in the British banks and it certainly makes imports here much less probable. All stocks were weak in London and the market responded very easily here. Trading was quiet and at the decline showed the same drift toward dullness that has been noted at such times as the mar ket has fallen away of late The gov- ernment monthly report on cotton came out at noon and showed a decidedly better condition of the plant than had been expected. In response to this prices broke sharply. The day's satis- factory condition of the crop indicated plentiful yield and the break in prices may relieve the congested condition of the cotton goods market and also in- crease our shipment abroad and make exchange in our favor As to the out look for our own bank statement, at the end of the week indications are not fa- vorable unless there is a decided re- versal in the tendency of the loan &C., count

promptly halted after the market got started and there was quite liberal profit taking by yesterdays buyers. The decline was not far extended and only few of the principal active stocks were depressed as much as a point. Erie was notably under pressure, the selling was supposed to be the unloading of some pool holdings taken on in antici- patton of rise in the price as a result of the favorable annual showing by the company.
 The principal event of the day in the financial world was the advance in the Bank of England discount rate by full 1 per cent. from to per cent. This is one of the customary measures to op- pose an outward movement of gold. The advance is not unusual in the fall months, but is generally delayed later than this. But the drain upon the Bank of England gold supply has become so considerable as to suppest the interpos- ing of some obstacles. Over s4,000, 900 was taken from the bank to-day and of this sS,500,000 went to Germany, which is the principal source of the drain. The London market was decid- ed depressed in consequence of the ad- vance of the rate. the piree Of consols falling lower than during the Boer war. The depression reflected in New York from that source, however, was but slight and sales for London account were small. This may have been due to the fact that New York is likely to join in the demand on London for gold before long. Our foreign exchange market responded to the increased bank rate in London, but our money market was practically unaffected.
 The heavy liquidation in the cotton market was due to the complete sur prise at the condition of that crop re- ported by the agricultural department and this was naturally a favorable in- huence upon stocks. The effect how ever, was scarcely perceptible. The continued firniness in the corn market attracted more notice. The slump in Colorado Fuel was the consequence of the passing of the dividend on the pre- ferred stock and the heavy require ments for additional capital which are impending over the corporation. Met ropoiitan Street Railway reflected the continued unfavorabie view of the sig nificance of the turning back by the underwriting syndicate managers of their holdings of the stock to the dorli- nant interests in the property. The market became practically stagnart late in the day and closed heavy about the low level.
 The bond market was very dull and irregular. Total sales par value, s1 1,0so,- 00O. r' '-'S v' .

EXPECT TROUBLE ON lSTHMUS
Government Does Not Intend to Be
Couaht Unprepared.

wAsHINGToN.g INoy.P Not
withstanding the 1 diplomatic denials
issued at the navy department that
the sending of 400 marines on the Dix
lie to the Caribbean sea has anything
to do with the expected troubles at
Panama it is true, nevertheless, that
the administration is preparing for all
contingencies on the isthmus. and
this extraordinary quota of marine
guards was dispatched with a view
to having them near at hand when
needed. & - : -
1t is also true that the administra-
ktion expects troubles son the isthmus,
Fahd that lit. does not intend to be
caught unprepared.s During the last
month unusual activity has been
shown by the army and the navy in
all the countries bordering the Car
ribean sea, the intelligence bureaus of
the two services collecting masses of
data as, I'd climate sanitatio On, roads,
Notifications, etc. The general staff
of the army has sent officers to most
of these countries to pursue investga-
tons as : military attaches and the
navy is now taking hand by strength
ening the marine guard in those
waters.
