INTERESTING MEETING AHEAD
Board of County Commissioners to
Dispose of Important Business.

Board of County Commissioners to
Dispose of Important Business.
A number of important cOnsidera-
tions will confront the board Of cOun-
tv commissioners at their regular
meeting next Tuesday. Two matters
of especial interest that will occupy
their attention will be that of deciding
upon a county tax rate, if any is to be
levied at all, and the election of road
superintendent.
it now seems probable that the com
missioners will decide to levy no taxes
for next year, as there is already
surplus in the treasury and the reve-
nues from the dispensary are practl-
cally sufficient to defray current ex-
penses. No taxes have been levied in
Terrell county for the past four years,
and the conditions which have made
it unnecessary to impose taxes during
that time still exist.
There are said to be several APP
plicants for the position of superin-.
tendent of roads, and the result of
this election is looked forward to with
interest.

YESTERDAYS STOCK MARKET

Complexion Decidedly Mixed -- Great
| Variety I'm the Dealings.
New York, April 4.-The complexion
of to-day's stock market was decidedly
mixed. An unusually large number of
separate issues We're dealt in, notwith-
standing the smaller aggregate Of the
! transactions. This appearance of
breadth in the market was accounted
for by the presence in the trading of
many usually neglected and obscure
specialties. The movements in these
were wide, but were extremely incon-
slant as well as irregular, both the
principal gains and losses being found
under this classification Railroad
stocks were sluggish throughout, and,
for the most part, heavy. The decline
in interest n the market seemed to be
due in part to the unsettling influence
of the cratic fluctuations in Tennessee
! Coal. 's"@
The passage through one house of the
New York legislature Of the stock
transfer tax and the belief that Its en-
actment into law is certain had some
fresh influence The bitter controversy
which had sprung up in the administra-
ton OF the Equitable Life Assurance
society and the investigation thus
prompted had a disturbing effect. The
prominence Of the low grade Industrial
stocks, even where they give evidence
of strength, is regarded as an evidence
that the high grade stocks have ex-
hausted their resources for advance and
haPets SuSnicion pf the stability nf +ha

The absence of long-expected an
lnouncementS, which have been suppos-
ed simply to await the conclusion Of
the Northern Securities case, induces q
feeling of distrust over the extent to
which mysterious rumors have been al
lowed to influence great speculative
commitments in various stocks. The
tone of the money market shows some
pletion of the April settlement, but not
to the extent that sanguine spectators
hoped, and the possibility is now faced
of a considerable prolongation of the
period of higher rates for interest. The
most substantial sustaining influence in
| to-day's market was the heavy accu-
mutation of the United States Steel

New Haven Theater.

Half Of the weeks engagement of the
Corse Payton Comedy company at the
New Haven theater was completed yes
terday with the presentation of the
Captain of the Nonesuch' at both the
matinee and evening performances The
play was a three-act comedy dealing
with the love affairs of the inconstant
Captain Augustus Bennett, described as
a fresh-water sailor, and the story of
Miss Angelina McKeage, late of the
comic opera. The comedy was one hay-
ing many amusing situations, which
were fully appreciated by the audience.
The acting of Annie Ashley, as Kissie
Spangler, the maid, and the boatswain,
Jack Brace, was amusing. Mrs. De-
borah Sampson, as the mother-in-law,
was effective with her dry remarks.
The specialties between the acts were
an appreciated addition to the regular
offering. The black art exhibitions of
All Ling Foo were especially good. One
of his tricks is to break a stick that is
suspended by paper loops hung on two
razors by hitting the stick without hav-
ing the papers cut by the razors. His
work was very entertaining. g..

pany is IAN Enemy of the Crown"
