The annual inspection OF the
WomaD's Relief Corps Tuesday evening
was a pleasant affair. Mrs. BERTHE M.
Smith of Portland, Department Presi-
dent, was inspecting officer and compli-
mented the Corps very highly on their
appearance and excellent work. After
the inspection campfire was held to
which the veterans Of the civil war
with their families and several friends
were invited. Following brief but
very entertaining address by the De-
partmeut President, Rev. Bryant, with
words couched in pathos and eloquence.
paid high tribute to the Flag and to
the old veterans who so gallantly de-
Tended it on many hard-fought field
OF battle. AT the conclusion, mess call
was sounded and rations we're issued
by the Corps to the assembled guests
and, rs usual, what was intended for
one ration, developed into enough for a
whole weeks campaign. AS a grand
finale, fatigue drill was ordered and the
Corps, with all invited guests, did the
goose foot to the martial air, "Bingo."
This drill, although novelty in Toledo,
was done to perfection and was also
highly commended by the Department
President.
Our friend Paul Chatterton of Bald
Mountain denies that he was "loaded
for BEAR" as charged last week by The
LEADER. We regret that we have
placed Paul in an improper light be.
fore the public gaze. We saw him buy
ing some Misunderstanding rifle shells
of our hardware firm, Gardner & Avery,
and naturally supposed he was going
after bear. In fact, Paul mentioned
bear while buying the ammunition.
However, we cheerfully retract the
statement. Paul denies that he was
"loaded for bear" and that settles it.
He probably bought the ammunition
for larger game.
Mr.. and Mrs. q. X. Schenck returned
Tuesday from visit at Seal Roc ks. 1t

The City Council has awarded Stone
Wells the contract to grade the road to
the city wharf and he has a force of
men at work with Jimmie Gather as
chief engineer. This much needed i'm
provement reflects great credit on the
energy of our business men, who so lib
orally supported the movement. The
contract price for the work completed
is $40.
Section Foreman Henry Cannon, has
placed substantial wire and board
fence along the railroad right.of-way
back of the business houses fronting on
Hill street. The management of the
G. e. E. found this measure necessary
owing to the persistent carelessness of
people who try to see how near they
CAN come to being killed by run
ming in front of the engines at the cross
ing. Although our citizens will be
obliged to take more exercise than may
be good for them in order to reach the
station in time to witness the arrival
and departure of trains, we think the
building of the fence a sensible act
A person who is too lazy to walk a
block or two farther to make con-
nection with the train is useles orna-
ment to our community and wouldn t
be missed, while one of energy won't
object to the Inconvenience of longer

STABBED WITH A sTILLETo.

Three Italians Attack Woman on Street
 and Rescuer Receives Bad Wound
 At 12:30 o'clock Sunday morning stabbing affair occurred on Whiting street, which nearly resulted fatally.
 Charles Newberg of the Candee Rub- Der company was going down that stree. at that time when he heard a woman scream. He rushed to the res cue. and found three men who looked like Italians. While he was grappling with one of the men, another stabbed him with stilleto. Then men then ran.
 Some men seeing Newberg's condition helred him to the Emergency hospital. On his arrival there it was found that his life had been saved by note book which he had in his pocket, and by the knife striking against the seventh rib The knife went through the note book which he had in his pocket; it then went into the flesh for an inch and a hals and the physician who attended him stated that if it had not struck the rib the cut would probably have been fatal.
 No clue as to the perpetrators Of the crime or who the woman was has yet been learned.

HAD NO BALTIMORE RISKS.

Security Go. Withdrew Its Business
 from There Over Three Years Ago.
 At the office of the Security Insurance company in this city yesterday it was stated that this concern had no fire risks in the burned quarter in Balti- more. The Security withdrew it's busi- ness from Baltimore in 1900.
 An experienced insurance man of this city said yesterday afternoon that fires Of the character of that in Baltimore were greatly dreaded by insurance com panies, as a consuming heat was creat- ed by them that was simply uncontroll- able, and the destruction, was so great that no matter how finely the risks were split up" the aggregate loss to each company writing risks was bound to be heavy.

Two-Foid Effect of Fire and Eestcrn

situation.
 New York, Feb. S.-The stock market to-day had to face the two-fold effect of the great effect of the gerat fire in Baltimore and the breaking off of diplo- matio relations between Russia and Japan, either one of which was suffi- cient to have justified severe break in prices. It is true that the rupture between Russia and Japan has been ex- pected and, presumably, discounted to some extent. ss is the wont of specu- lative markets with good information was not adequately discounted was clearly enough demonstrated by the de- moralized tone of state issues on the Paris bourse, which is the point upon which the effects of Russian troubles would naturally converge. But our own market faced this double threat with great apparent composure at the opening, the first decline failing to carry the level of prices down to the parity of the London level before our trading began. Support was evidently put into the market and prices rallied and a quiet tone that seemed one of confidence was brought about. It is doubtful whether this was effective in convincing anybody that the slight spilling out of stocks at the opening measured the whole effect upon the market of the Baltimore disaster. The harm already accomplished was suffi- cient to mark the event as great na- tional calamity, and there was noth- ing known in the early part of the day to indicate the ultimate limits of the damage. When it is borne in mind that both the Chicago fire and the Boston fire were the occasion of stock exchange panics, the action of the present stock market must be regarded as good The liquidation which was an inevitable consequence of wiping out of property value approaching the cost of our war with Spain caused declines during the day in the principal active stocks of 1 to over 3 points. The rally of the last hour demonstrated that short selling to considerable extent went hand in IldIlQ WitA tilG anu WAS uOL backed. with sufficient confidence to leave contracts open over night. The sharp relapse in prices failed, however, to attract any effective demand for stocks, leaving the outlook still uncer- tain. Baltimore & Ohio was naturally q special suffering owing to local causes. Pennsylvania was heavily sold all day with expressions of dissatisfac- ton over it's heavy borrowing. Union Pacific was q conspicuous sufferer. l Some of the days selling both of stocks and bonds was attributed to the ac- count of the insurance companies in preparation for the heavy claims to be met. All other censidera tions disap- | peared before the two great factors of l the fire and the war.
 1 Bonds were weak. Total sales par value $3,130,OO0. United States bonds were unchanged on call.
