PITTSBURG, Pa, June 1.-As a re-
suit of a riot between negroes and
whites yesterday afternoon. one negro
wounded morta1ly, and two white men
shot, but not seriously. While the riot
was at its height. an attempt to lynch
a negro was made. The rope was about
his neck, but after a speech by a former
inspector of police, the mob left the
negro on the ground dying.
The riot occurred in West Liberty
borough. adjoining Pittsburg. The Beltz-
hoover Borough Baseball Club had re
of the borough to play ball on Sunday
on condition that they kept away gam
b;ers. When the game began five ne
groes were seen gambling just outside

Constable. accompanied by some of the
hall players. ordered the gamblers

AS Kelly emerged he was shot through
the heart and dropped dead. The crowd
seized Davis. dragged him on his face
to tree, 900 yards away, beating him
with baseball clubs all the way. There
was delay. because nobody could climb
the tree. Former Police Inspector
George Waggoner pleaded with the
crowd to let Davis go. Policemen from
Pittsburg arrived and dispersed the
crowd. Garrett. the negro constable,
William Davis, and Nelson Foster are
at the hospital. and will die.

he ever expressed an opinion as TO the
good or bad treatment of the patient at
the hospital He said his name had been
used by someone as expressing the
opinion that the treatment was proper
and such as any physician would have
administered under the circumstances.
Er Birdsall denies this, and informs the
Commissioners that he never authorized
the statement
DR.. BirdsalI said he had decided opin-
ions upon the treatment given Young
Walmer, and if the Commissioners de-
sired it he would give his views to them
on the subject There was disposition

jected to having his name used in that
connection by those who were not au-
thorized to do so.

AMERICAN TRUST COMPANY
ISSUES ITS NEW STOCK

The new stock of the American securi-
ty and Trust Company was issued today.
Especial interest attached to the fact
because OF the acquisition of $4,000
shares of that stock by leading inter
ests in the Riggs National Bank.
AS has been already stated, these
shares were acquired at a premium of
$50 above the par value this practically
adding 100000 to the surplus of the
company. The new stock, which will
not pay dividend until January l, 1904
is to be paid for in four installments-
one today, the others on July 10, October
I. and January 1, 1904, respectively. In
addition 10 the one-fourth payable to-
day, the Riggs Bank stockholders had to
pay the premium of $50 per share, so
that from this source alone 81 PTS, 900
was paid to the trust company The old
stock for every FIVE shares of the old
The rights for the new stock are in
great demand by investors, as high as

again gave rise to admiring comment
upon the generosity of Charles C. Glow
er. president OF the Riggs National Bank.
In allotting TO each stakeholder of the
bank a portion of the new trust COM
pany stock, equal TO his holdings OF the
old stock OF the bank. 1t was unique
transaction. for which. It is said, no
parallel can be found in the history Of
American banking institutions.

CLAYTON, N j., June 1.-One of the
sad features of the Memorial Day ex-

the cause of much comment, was the
small number of old soldiers in line in
the short parade to the cemetery. There
were only about a dozen able to walk.
Four who were in line last year have
been laid away in the cemetery since,
and at the rate the old soldiers are &C

The consensus of opinion this morning
regarding the recent extensive selling
and general weakness is that it has been
a rich mans liquidating market with
trouble precipitated by the banks calling
for more margins and shifting of loans
on the mass of new securities. prompted
principally by the weakness disclosed in
the United States Shipbuilding Compa-
ny's finances and three or four other
corporations.

to operate for higher prices, but 1t may
be well for them TO bear in mind that
their holdings have lost nothing in in
trinsic value, and that all conditions en-
courage the continuance of dividend
payments and expanding of investment
value. There have been various I'M
favorable features in the situation which
have had a depressing effect on market
quotations, but they have not upset the
conditions underlying the real worth of
securities. These bad features, how
ever. have been more than discounted by
the fall in stock market prices, and,
even if there should be developments of
real Importance affecting the business
situation. it would seem as if no further
decline in quotations would be warrant
ed. Regarding this, however. it is not
safe to make predictions on the posi-
bility CT further decline. for the reason
that stock market movements generally
go far beyond the limits suggested by
common sense and controlling invest
ment factors. The bear party has grown
in power and influence. and it makes no
secret of its intention TO exert further
pressure on values. but investors who
buy stocks at present will make no mis-
take SO far as securing profitable in
vestments is concerned.
Money market conditions present no
factor on which may be based operations
for lower prices in securities. Notwith-
standing heavy gold exports, local bank
reserves have not been materially affect
ed. while further shipments of the metal
will not upset the money market Ex-
ports have been offset by large ship
ments of money from the interior. The
outward movement of gold at this time
of the year is a development of natural
conditions in the international exchange
market, and it increases the prospects
of return movement in the fall. An
other factor that promises to reach i'm
portant proportions in the exchange
market is the buying of American Sc
curities for the account of foreign III
vestors and spectators. In the last two
weeks upward of 100000 shares of first
class railroad stocks have been bought
by foreign houses, and reports from the
other side indicate further purchases of
the same character.
