New York stock Marker.

New York, March 2l.-The specula-
tive element trading through up town
offices and western houses turned to
the bull side this morning and was
fairly good. buyer of stocks. The ffuc-
tuations after the opening were narrow
and the trading quiet, although first
prices showed gains OF small fractions
iii some shares. About an equal number
showed small losses and during the first
hour there were diverse movements in
the few stocks that were actively traded
in. Sugar declined from l43 to 142 on
selling induced by the closing of the re-
finery in Brooklyn. Nearly all the room
shorts covered in the first hour and then
the trading element shifted its position
again and sold just about whatit bought,
causing reactions aud declines ranging
from ! to I from the early price level.

Anticipate Flood.

Pitssburg, Pa, March 2f-"Prep-
arations had better Immediately be
made for possibly the greatest food in
years." This is the warning issued at
10 O. clock this morning from the local
Weather Bureau office. This time it will
be the Monongahela's innings, as this
river shows unmistakeable signs OF
reaching very high stage this morning.
The river is rising from end to end, and
its tributaries are also swelling rapidly.
Heavy rains have been falling over all
the country drained by the Monongabela
and tributaries Tor several hours past,
aud reports received at the Weather
Bureau this morning showed the streams
to be rising rapidly. 1t is also raining
heavily up the Allegheny valley, and it
would not be a surprise ifthat river
would start to rise again by this evening
or tomorrow. Owing TO the present very
high stage OF the Allegheny, aud also
considering the fact that the river is fall
ing this morning, from the head waters
down, it would not take great deal of
rain to cause the stream to stop falling
and come up again, but such aconditiol
is not expected. FOrecaster Frank
Ridgeway stated this morning that the
MonOngahela weuld likely give great
deal of trouble at Pittsburg, unless con-
diiions change greatly, and very soon.
At eight o'clock this morning, themarks
in the Monongahela river at Market
street, showed 81. feet, a fall Off from
the highest record of the night, % feet, at
10 O'Clock, last night.

AN APPEAL.
To the People OF Virginia

AN an old man, have weak eyes,
equity fingers, no amanuensis, and see
nobody who is we'll informed about
educational matters, but judging by the
little have seen and heard must re-
gard the operations of the Cooperative
Education Commission OF Virginia as
highly patriotic and beneficial.
The fact that it is a purely voluntary
organization, without authority and
without public money, should commend
il all the more to the friends of edu-
cation, and perhaps especially to school
officers, who are required by law to do
exactly the sort of work the commission
is aiming to do. Il will be a great thing
to break the apathy Of the public and
the official mind, if nothing more is
done.
Every iliberal thought should be laid
aside in view OF the objects announced
for the May campaign, and in view OF
the character of the persons conducting
il. The objects are the best possible.
The actors belong to the education an d
educating elite of the State they work
with and for the public school system !;
they work without pay they-must love
the people they certainly love Virginia,
and they know the power Of education.
Such persons, male and female, deserve
public confidence, aud should have the
sympathy and help of the friends Of
education.
The first field work, am glad 10
observe, is for the benefit OF the country
schools because the country schools
have the greatest difficulties, and be-
cause the strong country children are to
determine the destiny of the State and
the destiny of every country family.
When these apostles of education
enter upon their May work let them be
attended with open eyes and ears. They
have good things to say. AMI there are
many good things they eau do. Who
will bring out the people ? Who ought
to bring them out The answer is
easy. w. Ii. RUFFNEE.

Today's Telegraphic News
The Rrockton Dlsaster.

Brockton, Mass, March 1.-The term
missing has the grim significance of
"dead" in a small city, and the official
list dead 10 the Grover shoe factory
shows IA bodies identified. Search Of
the smouldering ruins was resumed again
this morning No bodies were recovered
last night. Medical Examiner Paine
expressed the belief today that many of
the bodies had been burned to ashes and
no trace of them would ever be found.
Relief committees from the various Sc
eret societies and labor unions are lend
ing their aid TO locate the missing MEM
bers of the families. Many of the in
iured are 10 the hospitals aud will recover.
OF the four hundred employees of the
factory but two hundred and ffty-nine
are reported as getting out Of the build
lug. The majority of these sustained
injuries. The work of searching for the
dead is marked by many scenes Of grief
Heart broken mothers and wives waited
all night long in the silent line near the
ruins waiting for the search to be re-
sumed this morning. Cloudy weather
and cold fog gave cherries setting
to the already heart breaking scene.
Many offers of assistance have been
received from other cities, but Mayor
Keith says they wilfnot be needed. The
city has arranged for public funeral of
the unidentified dead, and will pay the
expenses. The work of searching for
the missing dead was prosecuted with
the greatest vigor this morning. Crews
of men were working among the charred
beams, timbers and machinery which lsy
piled in shapeless masses A foul stencil
arose from the debris, which sickened
MANY of the searchers. Because OF the
incinerated condition OF most of the bodies
there is likelihood that but few will
be identified. When body is found it
is removed to The police station and there
tagged. The city and State will make
separate investigations Of the disaster.
The body of Engineer Rockwell was
found this morning in the engine room
beside the chair in which he had been
sitting and was identified by nail clip
per and watch. This makes fourteen
identified bodies thus. far recovered.
Fifty-five bodies have been recovered.
The work of searching the ruins went
on slowly today, though with as much
expedition as possible under the circum-
stances. The moving of the heavy
girdes made the work of removing the
debris slow. The freproof vault, con-
tanning the books and papers of the
firm, is as yet unopened. In the safe is
also the payroll which probably contains
the only correct list OF the employees of
the factory. Mayor Keith said that the
vault could not be opened for twenty
four hours or more.

REV. w. GORDON JONES, aged p
years, has been summarily dismissed
from the paslorate of church in Pit
man, n. J. Neglect Of pastoral duties
and riding on Sunday trains are the
ostensible causes which precipitated his
dismissal. The young man was con-
verted banjo-picker and started out in
life as q member of a minstrel troupe,
When be renowned the burnt-cork
profession he did not relinquish his
banjo, but carried it into the church
with him and used the instrument to
draw crowds to religious services. The
use of such means to attract people to
churches has been justly condemned, as
no lasting good is accomplished by turn
ing churches into play houses. Rev.
Jacob Kurtz threw shell into the Min
isterial Association of York, Pa, at a
union meeting Yesterday afternoon by
charging ministers with holding fairs
and smokers in churches and turning
Gods house into playhouse. Con-
tinuing Mr.. Kurtz said
Here is the Young Mems Christian
Association, organized to spread the
gospel among the youths of the land.
What is the association doing? Is it
working in the interest of Christianity?
Instead of carrying out its original mis-
sion, it is promoting such things as
basketball, chess, checkers and dominos.
Is it proper for a Christian society to
encourage games of chance that arouse
the gambling spirit in young men and
lead them on to hell? You clergymen
are responsible for all this. You are
turning your backs upon your duties
aud making farce of religion. Instead
of preaching to save souls, you are
preaching for the benefit OF your pocket.
