STOCK MARKET
STANDS Up WELL
Indications That Money Will Be
Forthcoming to Cover Insur-
anCe Loss at San Francisco.
RATE WILL BE 6 PER CENT
LITTLE BUSINESS TRANSACTED
YESTERDAY.

New York, April 25-Today's stock mar
ket was repetition in most respects of
that of yesterday, but with a noticeable
shrinkage in the volume of activity and
added force to the late reaction the ir-
regular upward movement resulted in
much hesitation at the higher levels fol-
ioWed by an abrupt fall at the last. The
buying was attributed largely to the &C
count of professional operators. who failed
TO discover any important pressure to sell
and turned to the long side accordinely
The free pressure of LIQUIDATION and even
81 the money market were accepted as an
mdlcatlon that the most urgent neceS-
stiles of the San Francisco loss have been
provided for. Opinion Is not so clear of
the ultimate needs, especially provision
Ior paying insurance losses. There was
a further movement of currency toward
san francisco, but not on as large
scale as on previous days since the calam-
ity. This caused a feeling that the cash
reserve thought to be needed by the San
francisco banks to meet the first calls
upon them when opening for business was
approaching completion. The necessary
building up of cash reserves is a part
from the demand for credits and for cap
ital which will follow when the work of
rebuilding begins.
Published details of the securities held
by the great fire insurance companies
were found to contain high-grade invest
ment stocks almost altogether. The firm
ness of the time money market for loans
extending to six months and over at 8
per cent was regarded as fixing the rate
which insurance companies will have to
pay III attempting TO borrow rather than
TO hquidate securities. The probability of
considerable liquidation was considered
strong in view of this money rate. Sub
treasury operations indicate a loss by the
banks for the banking week thus far of
s2,77O,00O, but this includes some part, al
though not all, OF the gold arrivals against
which government funds were deposited
with banks and which are coming back
into the Sub-treaSury as they arrive.
Reading was prominent among the strong
stocks, owing to reports that the anthra-
cite scale committee assembling at
WilkeSbarre would have propositions to
make to the operators which would lead
TO an adjustment.
Union Pacific was we'll supported and
AmaIgamated Copper was helped by
strong advance in the foreign price for
the metal. The United States Steel stocks
got little advantage from the very favor
able showing of net earnings in the quar-
terly report, selling to take profits moro
than overwhelming the new demand. The
siX-point break in Consolidated Gas was
influential in the renewed decline which
set in late in the day and swept prices
comprehensively to below last nights
level Selling was actively in force at the
weak close.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par
value, S2,155,00O. United States bonds were
all unchanged on call.

AUTOMOBILE REGISTRATION.
Only Twenty Owners of Automo-
biles Have Complied With the
Law.

Clerk Of Court Parrot states that
although he has all the necessary
record books and blanks for properly
registering automobiles as required
by law and has had them for several
weeks he has registered only twenty
machines and most Of these were reg
istered within few days after he re-
ceived the record books. He says
that there are reported to be about
sixty to seventy-five machines in the
city and several others in the county
and if this be a correct estimate there
are forty or more automobiles unreg-
istered. He says also that SO far as he
has observed very few of those who
have registered their machines have
complied with the provision Of the
law requiring the registration number
to be conspicuously displayed on the
machine. =

knight. Who Has Been in .AsheviIle
for Some Time, is Resaining His
Health.

The members Of the Knights Of
Pythias in Charleston as we'll as those
throughout the entire State, will be
pleased to know that Gel. ]. N. Knight
the past grand chancellor Of the Or
kder, who has been i'll for several
months, and who found it necessary
to make a temporary sojourn in Ashe-
vile. \. c., has found the change of
climate very beneficial, and is on the
road to recovery and hopes very soon
to be in the full enjoyment of re-
stored health.
Col. Knight has very warm place
in the hearts of the Pythians Of this
CITY, for whom he has always shown
much good will and affection. During
his term of Office as grand chancellor
of this State Col. Knight made a most
enviable record, the order progress
ed to a marked degree throughout the
entire State and much enthusiasm
and interest was kindled in the various
lodges in this grand domain.
Col. knight was forced, by reason
Of his health, to be absent from his
home city, Sumter, at the time OF the
recent convention in that city, mat
ter which he regretted exceedingly, but
which the members Of the order who
attended the convention doubtless re-
gretted more than he did.
Col. Knight sent a letter at that
time to the Grand Lodge, but by
some miscarriage of the mail the letter
was not received until after the con-
vention had adjourned. 1t is Col.
Knights purpose to visit Charleston
next month, when the Press Associa-
ton meets at the Isle Of Palms, and
his Pythian friends are looking for
ward with much pleasure to seeing
him at that time.-News and Courier
