In the dormitory building of the Nor

which was destroyed by fire yesterday
morning, there were two young ladies
from Raleigh.
These are Misses Frances and Irene
Lacy. daughters of State Treasurer Lacy
kilograms received from the young ladies
state that Miss Frances had lost every
thing she had with her, but that Miss
Irene had saved most of her wardrobe
and her trunk.
Miss Emily Walker, of this city, is also
student at the State Normal, but it is
understood that she was not in the dor
mitory that was destroyed.
Yesterday morning State Treasurer

superintendent Joyner, who was at one
time member of the faculty of the col
lege. A telegram to Mr.. r. T. Gray, one
of the directors of the college, from Pres

meeting of the directors had been called
to consider the situation and Mr.. Gray
left On the afternoon train to attend it.
The meeting is expected to be held this
morning.
Governor Aycock leaves this morning
for Greensboro, where he will confer with
the directors and faculty about the mat
ter of providing accommodations for the
students and for the rebuilding Of the dor
mitory.
The people of Raleigh heard with much
concern of the great loss in Greensboro,
and many expressions of regret were
heard, coupled with words of gratitude
that no life had been lost. There is deep
sympathy felt here for the young women
who have lost so much by the fire.

STOCK MARKET SOMEWHAT BETTER  No News to Account for the
 Upward Tendency SUGAR STRONGEST STOCK Activity Comes Near The Minimum Record for the Last Four Years
 Paris Outcome ls Still
 Uncertain.

New York. March 1.-The movement of today's stock marRet was somewhat more consistent than that of yesterday in that prices were above yesterdays level throughout the day, but the character of the market was not essentially changed. Trading was near the minimum record for the last four years and the movement of prices was so narrow and sluggish as to be almost lmperceptible. There were minutes at a time when the ticker was silent.
 The fact that prices moved upwards, had no news to account for 1t. The news, In fact. offered various unfavorable feat ures.. The fact that these unfavorabic news factors failed to depress prices, was the subtle reason for the advance. That is to say, traders short of stocks who had been awaiting decline on bad news to cover their contracts uneasy at the fail- ure to. decline, covered their shorts and lifted prices.
 The uncertainty over the outcome of the Paris settlement seems to have been large influence in negative way in our market. The progress of the settlement today and the reports that arrangements had been made to patch up threatened difficulties in connection with 1t, relieved the stock market from some of its de- pression and conduced to the rally.
 Sugar was the strongest stock, the only news on it being the declaration of the regular dividends. about which there had been no doubt felt and rise in the price of refined sugar. Otherwise, 1t was quite impossible to account for the movement of the market from any news known to the public. The returns of net earnings for January which appeared during the day included Canadian Pacific, Rock Is- land, Louisville and Nashville, and Colo rado and Southern. all showing declines in net earnings of varying degree.
 Rock Island and Canadian Pacific show ed some heaviness early In the day, but stocks of the other companies advanced with the rest of fhe market. Heavy snow storms which were reported the severest in the history of the company in the case of New York Central, threatened to Impede the operating efficiency of the traffic but the market again ignored the fact. Lack of progress was reported from the coal conference at Indianapolis and the spread of the freight war to other commodities than grain was alleged. Prices dropped to the lowest at the close, after a practical stagnation.
 Bonds were irregular Total sales par value, S905,000. United States bonds were unchanged on call.

LOCAL MARKETS.

Spot cotton in the Birmingham market closed steady yesterday and good mid ding is still lowering around the To cent mark There is nothing doing in the local market, however, and the trend of prices is not causing any excitement.
 Stocks and bonds continue steady. There is nothing doing in local circles and all prices remain firm.
 In staple groceries flour continues to go up. Fancy patent is now marked at s6, with good prospects of going higher, while half patent Is $555 Dry salt meats are also inclined to be irregular but the fluctu- ations are confined to narrow limits. Leaf lard Is quoted at cents.
 Along Morris avenue bananas and ap- pies are much in evidence. Large ship ments of both are being received now and sales are very good. A few oranges are also on sale but the shipments for the past few days have fallen off slightly.
 The egg market continues interesting. The market is weak at 16 cents and ship ping is very lively. A few coops of poui- try are sold now and then, but the stock is exceedingly limited.
 Spring vegetables will begin to arrive in few weeks and will give the market more lively appearance

By Gilbert & Clay
 New orleans, March 1.--Liverpool was wet blanket to the spirit of enthusiasm Of the bulls. who confidently expected an ad- vance instead of a decline that was regis tered there today which was by private cables attributed to heavy realizing in- dulged in by Egypt and the continent.
 Speculation at the moment seems dor mant and very little outside business noted here. Prices f1uctuated in answer to the whim of the moment absolutely without a tendency In either direction.
 The chief support was derived from buy ing in New York by a prominent operator there Estimated receipts for Galveston, Houston and New Orleans for tomorrow figured more liberal than generally antic- ipated and acts as a restraining influence to possible purchasers.

caldwell 6 Wards Grain Letter.

Chicago March 1.-The whole story Of today's session in grain and provisions is summed up in the word liquidation. The movement started Saturday was pro- nounced in wheat and provisions yester- day and spread to the coarse grains, es- pecially oats today. The desire to seize dwindling profits. or to cut short grow Ing losses was unanimous with all classes of traders. Pit operators and the profes sional element helped the decline. There seemed to be no reciprocative power, and the lowest prices were made near the close. The news was of no moment and not taken into consideration in the days trading. ~$4
 Wheat-The long interest was consipic- uous throughout the session as a seller of May and a buyer of old July at from 51a to 5i4 cents difference. The opening Liverpool cables were relatively strong. but the close was 1G1iAc off. The Argen- tine strike Is serious feature. The weather map shows no precipitation in the southwest but milder conditions ap- pear to facilitate movements Round lots of cash wheat were reported sold from Milwaukee to eastern millers and No. 1 northern changed hands here at cents under the May Cars toomrrow 35.
 Corn was relatively stronger than the other cereals. the forenoon. but parti- cipated in the general closing weakness and the last figures were near to the bottom. News of consequence was scarce Weather was fair throughout the belt and is against any improvement in grading, but at the same time favors the movement.
 Oats-The sharp. quick break in oats was the feature of the early trading. The start was easy and under liberal offer ings declined 25sc before a temporary halt was called. Mixing houses continue to take the standard grain in liberal quan- tites. 100000 bushels were transferred to- day. This fact and the increase in the already large visible has made holders nervous Local receipts were 366 cars with 160 estimated for tomorrow
 Provisions-There was selling by com mission of all products for accounts that have been buying the market helped the decline, but bought freely on the breaks. Estimated tomorrow, fl ,000
