Speaking OF the leaning OF the Virginia
legislators TO Mr.. German on q tariff re-
form platform. the Petersburg lndex-Ap-
peal says:
But Mr.. German probably will not be
nominated on this platform or on any
other. He can hardly secure Mr.. Bryan'a
support and he is not a tariff reformer
In harmony with the ideas OF revision as
understood by the members of the Legis-
lature. Mr.. German would make a good
run, however, II he could get the nomina-
ton"

Market in Fairly Good Tone, Consid-
ering Recent Occurrences.
[Porterfeid & Co.'S Telegram.l

tPorterfeld & Co.'S telegram
NEW YORK, July 25.-Considering the
strain that Wall street has been subjected
to for the past month, which eliminated in
two important failures yesterday, and the
fact that brokers came down town to-day
fearful OF other leading firms probably be-
ing involved, the market acted surprising
ly satisfactory. Naturally the scare head
lines or the daily papers caused flood of
out-of-town selling orders which had TO be
taken care Of AT times the market was
feverish and dips of l to points were
recorded, but in few moments the sup
port behind the market would put them
up again. Mexican Central, the stock that
involved one firm, recovered points early
but did not hold the advance The Steel
issues lost half of the early advances. Rails
were irregular and finally weak, more on
account of unfavorable corn crop reports
than the Wall-street situation. The sur
prising feature was that no other failure
followed nor was any of the embarrassed
firms securities sold under the rule. This
denotes that they have been provided for
by their friends, possibly Morgan interests.
Conservative houses are rather persistent
in advising buying of rails and coalers,
claiming that they are on a paying basis
as investments at these figures 1t looks
reasonable to expect some healthy recov-
cries now. AS a rule the anticipation is
worse than the happening and after the
battle, when the smoke clears away con-
ditions are generally found better than ex-
pected. The aftermath may cause q fur
Their decline, but 1t is doubtful
