HEARD ON 'CHANGE

The events of the week In the stock mar
ket have not been of any special signifi-
canoe. although the volume OF business
has increased and the tendency toward
better prices has been a rather marked
one. The improved condition in the bust
ness Of the Mergenthaler was reflected in
the advance that took place In that stock
which Is also supposed to represent to
some degree the rumored increase in the
expected extra dividend.
Mitchell Mining stock for some reason that
was not brought out also recovered from
the rather low level to which it had gone
and emerged on rather liberal trading on
a higher range of prices. This move
ment was not shared in by the other cop
per stock on the list, namely. Greene Cop
per. but in this respect the movement
here kept pace with the one in the New
York market. where both Of these stocks
are also traded in.
There was a very fair market for the Sc
curities in the bond list. and the demand
for this class. while not large, was steady,
and the prices remained firm. This was
especially the case with the bonds of the
Washington Railway and Electric Com
pany. which. as a rule. are the most active
on the list.
The action was slow in the stocks of the
company. and the rise expected by some
was not large. and was soon checked.
There seems to be no reason for this con-
dit1on as far as known, except that the buy
ers are not numerous and the securities
do not attract the general public.
It is supposed that one cause for this
Is the fact that a large block Of these
securities has already been taken in this
market and that the process of digestion
has not as yet been accomplished. There
are those who think that a more liberal
supply Of money for those who wish to
buy would bring about more business.
Those who hold views of this sort regard
with disfavor the practice that is by no
means general. it is said. of raising the
rate Of interest on collateral loans OF
course there are cases where this is done
in answer to market conditions, and as
soon as the latter change the rate of in
terest also changes without any action on
the part of the borrower.
Where a bank raises the rate for such a
reason and then when it no longer exists
voluntarily reduces it. such course does
not seem to create much comment. 1t is
where the rate is raised and no change
is made in it unless the borrower is strong
enough to go to the bank and compel IT
that complaint arises.
There are some bankers who believe that
business would be better II uniform rate

of any changes that may take place in the

Those aliens who contemplate mt ting the finishing touches on their citi- zenship in order that they may vote at the coming election had better do so before the new naturalization law goes into effect That will be On Sen tember 27, and under the provisions of the law no voter may be made after that in time for the election. as will he seen by the two following sections of
 Section 3. That the clerk of the court shall, immediately after the filing of the petition, give notice thereof bv posting in a public and conspicuous place in his office or in the building in which his office is situated, under an appropriate heading. the name. nativity and residence of the alien. the date and place of his arrival in the United States, and the date, as nearly as may De' for the final hearing of his petition and the names of the witnesses whom the applicant expects to summon in his behalf; and the clerk shall if the ap- phcant requests it, issue a subpoena TOT the witnesses so named by the said applicant to appear upon the day set Tor the final hearing. but in case such witnesses cannot be produced upon the hhal hearing other witnesses may be summoned.
 Section 6. That petitions for natur- allzatlon may be made and filed during term time or vacation of the court. and shall be docketed the same day as filed. but final action thereon shall be had only on stated days to be fixed by the rule of the court, and in no case shall hnaI action be had upon a petition ln- III at least ninety days have elapsed snrr such petition; provided. that no per son shall be naturalized nor shall any certificate of naturalization be issued by any court within thirty days pre- ceding the holding of any general cleo ton within it's territorial Jurisdiction.
 There are no doubt many persons in this county who. under the old or the present law, are entitled to receive their final papers, but if they let the matter go until the new law becomes effective they would have to present petitions as is prescribed above, and then ninety days would have to eIapse before there could be a final hearing The new law also prevents a rush of newly-made citizens on the eve of election.
 In many respects it is much more stringent than the present law. It re- qulres that not earlier than two years nor later than seven years after the aliens declaration of intention he shall file his petition for admission to citi- zenship. This petition must be in his own handwriting and must contain all essential facts about himself. such as the country of his nativity, the time of his leaving it, the gate and place of his arrival in this country and the name of the vessel which brOrroE,t I,i,,, here, If he has come by water.

A SEATTLE SUICIDE
 LYMAN J. CAGES SON
Ills Wife Had Arrived in the City in
 Search of Him.

Seattle, Wash, Aug. 2.-E. A. Gage, said to be a son of former Secretary of the Treasury Gage, shot himself through the heart at the Tourist hotel in this city this afternoon The Se- attle acquaintances of MT. Gage say that they are not surprised at the sui eide, as he had been acting strangely for some time.
 Mrs. E. A. Gage arrived in the city two days ago, and has had detectives in search of her husband since. The man has been constantly changing from one hotel to another and regis ter1g under assumed names.
 It was later learned definitely that the suicide was the son of former Sec retary Gage.
 The only cause for the shooting which can be assigned was that he was temporarily insane from drinking. His wife came here from Chicago last Monday and employed detectives to To- cate her husband. Gage evidently knew that the detectives were on his track, as he registered at the hotel under the assumed name of J. w. Gorst. He went there July 29. Before that time he was stopping at the GreystOne, where he stayed when he reached Se- attle from Chicago on July :. Leaving there on July Is he went to one of the other hotels Of the city and also regis tered there under an assumed name.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 2.-Although the mutinies at Sveaborg have been ended and the one at Cronstadt has been practically put down, the outlook is still black The revolutionists, whose hands were suddenly forced by the premature rising at Sveaborg, appar- ently are undaunted at these initial reverses and intend to persist in their program of calling a general strike on Saturday or Monday.
 One of the leaders of the revolu- tionists with whom the Associated Press spoke last night boasted that the word had gone forth and that the fire of revolt would spread to the corners of the empire. His closing words to the correspondent were: Now watch Reval, Riga and Libau."
 The news of the mutiny on board the cruiser Pamyat Azovaf off the Esth- Onian coast, is fraught with enormous possibilities. The crew of this vessel rose and killed the commander and four officers.
 Ambassador Meyer has received a dispatch from the American consul at RevaI saying that the Pamyat Azovaf entered that port today with the red flag at her masthead. Should this cruiser, under the flag of the mutineers, sail to the northward and appear in the presence of the main squadron in the gulf of Finland the loyalty of the crews of these vessels would perhaps be put to a stronger test than they could stand. Although the admiralty asserts that the squadron off Sveaborg did not waver in it's allegiance. there is something mysterious about the re- ports of the actions of the ships which warrants a suspicion that all was not right aboard. Only two ships fired on the mutineers, the others remained on the horizon, as if the admiral was not sure that they could be depended upon.
 The mutiny on the Pamyat AzOvaf may possibly raise international com plications as in the eye Of the law tbfs cruiser, like the Kniaz Potemkiue In the Black sea in the summer of 1905, is pirate. There is reason to believe that the German fleet has orders cov- ering just such a contingency as this. and that it would not hesitate to put an end 10 the renegade cruiser as a danger to commerce.
 When the firing began at Cronstadt, Wednesday night, there ensued a wild panic in the imperial palace at Peter hof. as the palace lies under the guns of the fortress. All preparations had been made in advance to flee to Tsars- koe-Selo, but the report afoat yester- day afternoon that the emperor and his family actually had fled in the mid de of the night was denied later at the chancellory of the imperial house. hold. It was explained. however. that on account Of "dampness' at Peterhof, arrangements had been made for the return of the imperial family to Tsarskoe- -SeIo
 Martial law was proclaimed at Cron- stadt during the day. and all day long endorsements have been landing there from the mainland. No one is permitted on the island without pass. and. although the correspondent of the Associated Press was thus equipped he was held up and searched upon dis embarking from a rowboat.
 The correspondent found that at o'clock yesterday evening there were about 2000 mutinous sailors barricaded In their barracks, which were suG- rounded by troops
