with the first quarter of the year, a

900, 900 of securities decided upon du-

amount shows 4 gain OF more than 81

reach the anticipated figures of $4O,-

criticisms of the Democrats in his
speech of an hour before. He urged
the delegates to stand on the platform
that had been unanimously adopted and
said no success could be hoped for

"A. J. Barr. a Pennsylvania delegate,
interiected that the speaker had no
right to resume along the same lines.

of derision.
Mr.. Rose grew rapidly unpopular and

Many delegates began leaving the
hall pushing their way through the
crowded seats and causing much con-

out. Then an alternate, far off 10 the
speakers left, evidently overcome by
"bracers," mounted his chair and with
uncertain gestures, demanded attention.

North Carolina gave a second to the
Parker nomination.
Chairman Cole, of the North Dakota
delegation, took the platform and an
nounced that he had name to present
to the convention which had not yet
been presented as a candidate.
"Who is he" demanded the conven-
ton.

who proceeded with his speech.
Cole NOminates Williams.
The candidate we wish to present to

one objection and that is that he comes

Again Mr. Cole branched into politi-

who the nominee would be. Chairman
Bailey tried to quiet the clamor which
brought Mr. Cole to n stop.
The chair" he said. "begs the con-
vention to hear the speaker, because
the speaker declares he will not leave
the stand until he finishes"
At last Mr.. Cole got to the end
which was the declaration that his
candidate was John Sharp Williams

Philadelphia. July 6.-The six-round
boxing bout between Bob Fitzsimmons
and Jack O'Brien. which was to have
taken place at the Philadelphia Ma
tional League baseball park tonight, for
the benefit of The Evening Telegraph
free fund. was declared off this after
noon by the management, on account of
the action of Mayor Weaver in issuing
orders to the police to stop the con-
test. The Mayor held that a contest
such as was scheduled would be a prize
fight and. therefore. a vilation of the
law. He warned the management OF
the affair that he would order the po-
lice to arrest the fighters the moment
they stepped into the ring.

Boston T1FTdIU-
There are more ways than one of
turning a dollar in the Stock Exchange.
This was proved by the member of the
New York exchange who ,discOunting
the dull business that was to come, sold
his seat in 1903. only to buy one back
a year later for $4,000 less than the
price he was paid. Here was a clear
profit of $4,000 in a year, and we ques-
ton II this was not considerably bet
ter showing than that made by many
of the brokers who retained their seats
and worked hard during the whole
year. There are few better barome-
tiers of Wall Street business than that
furnished by the price that can be OBJ
tanned for seats in the New York stock
exchange. and on this basis the mer-
curry Is now low in the tube.
