 Public.

Ketterer, the vice president, pre- sided ill the absence of MT. Koonce.
 Several movements were started which, if carried 10 a successful conclusion, will result ill considera- ble benefit to the community.
 The executive committee reported that 1t had met ill conference with the secretary. as instructed at the last meeting of the board, and it was decided to learn of the where abouts of the road commissioners by wiring to Skagway. their head quarters. The reply received stated that they are i'll Skagway awaiting funds. The secretary was instructed to extend to them an invitation to visit Rampant to investigate the need of the district for improved roads and trails. and to urge upon them the necessity tor such improve ments. Messrs. Heeter, Crockett and Cutting were appointed com mittee to circulate petition to the road commissioners for a road or improved trail up Big Minook creek.
 The secretary re orted that letters had been written to the chambers of commerce of the various towns of Alaska and of the coast cities, informing them that a board of trade had been organized at Ram part. and offering them our CO., operation in any movement for the general welfare of the territory.
 The communication from the Fairbanks chamber of commerce regarding a census of Alaska to be taken July was again read and considered.

Loss of Confidence fin Values Shows
 Notable Growth.
 New York, May 1S.-Loss of confidence in values showed notable growth dur ing the progress of to-day's trading in stocks and heavy liquidation was the consequence. Professional traders were very persistent on the short side of the market. There was heavy selling by speculative pools which have made un- availing efforts to get prices up and the decline in prices brought other sell ing by the impairment of margins and the uncovering of stop loss orders. The downward course was not established without a struggle. The bulls again centered their efforts on the trans-con- tinental group and St. Paul, Union Pa cific and Southern Pacific at different times showed considerable strength. But the over accumulation of those stocks in the effort to support the market made them weaker than the average when the unloading process be- gan. .-=- It cannot be said that any important news developed during the day, but there was discussion of 8 number of points in the outlook which have been brought into attention in the last few days. The principal texts of the dis cussion by the professional operators were on the announced policy of the administration to purchase the Panama canal supplies in the worlds cheapest markets. and the admitted Hull in the ! iron and steel trade. These two fac tors worked together in their effect as | it was assumed that the canal mater ials would come mostly from iron and steel products. .-......-.. l The opening up of the whole subject of tariff revision and the danger of un- settlement of the whole industrial and ! financial fabric were dwelt upon by
 bear traders. The reassuring opinions i from steel trade authorities that the present Hull in demand was likely to
 prove temporary were disregarded. The , liquidation of the United States Steel
 stocks in consequence came from all quarters, selling for London account forming an important proportion of 1 the whole. With the news of the ac- I ton of the Northern Pacific stockhold- CTS showing a general retirement of the
 Union Pacific element from the diree- 1 torate, a wave of distrust swept over themarket regarding the persistent ru- 1 mors 0: the working out of projects il for community of interests in the ! Northwest, by exchange of holdings in
 different railroads. Nothing in the l money market explained the urgent 1 liquidation, which became precipitate
