New York, Feb. S.-The stock mar
ket to-day had to face the twofold eff
feet of the great fire in Baltimore, and
the breaking off of diplomatic relations
between Russia and Japan, either one
of which was sufficient to have justi-
fed a severe break in prices.
The market faced this double threat
with great apparent composure at the
opening, the first decline falling to
carry the level of prices down to the
MARTY of the London level before our
trading began. Support was evidently
mt into the market, and prices rallied
and a quiet tone that seemed one of
confidence was brought about. 1t 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.
Market stood Firm.
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
liouidation which was an inevitable
consequence of a wiping out of prop
erty value approaching the cost of our
war with Spain caused declines dur
ing the day in the principal active
stocks of 1 to over 3 points.
The rally of the last hour demon
strated that short selling to a consid-
erable extent went hand in hand with
the liquidation and was not backed
with sufficient support to leave con-
tracts open over night. The sharp re-
lapse in prices failed, however, to at
tract any effective demand for stocks
leaving the outlook still uncertain.
Baltimore and Ohio was naturally a
special sufferer owing to local causes.
Pennsylvania was heavily sold all day
with expressions of dissatisfaction
over its heavy borrowing.
Union Pacific Suffered.

ferer. Some of the days selling, both

The hill land is poor, much of
it valued at fifty cents an acre, yet
there is some good ridge land; the
bottom land is good and can hard
ly be bought at any price.
The oil excitement is getting
up. A gusher was struck lately
Just over the line in Cumberland

height of one hundred and twenty
four feet. This scribe went down
to see it. 1t WAS rather wonder.
full sight to see it come forth from
the earth of its own accord.
Oil is found at a great depth.
Nature has so arranged it that
there is a rock roof over it 30 as
to exclude all the water. The oil
is below the water, most always
found in sand.
As transportation is so poor the
oil is pired over the mountains to
a point in West Virginia.
The first boat load went up the
river this week to the point where
the pipe crosses the river. The
river is in fine boating stage at
present.
The timber business:is quite an
interesting feature with these PEG

bank waiting for the wat or.
Large rats of fine poplar, wal
nut and cedar are constantly pass
ing on their way to Nashville.
These hills are decked with ve-
~ fine cedar for telegraph poles,

farmers to complain of scarcity
Of hands.
There is not much wheat in this
section of the county and that lit
