But the Stock Market Yesterday
Was Broad. and Strong, Not
withstanding.
EARLY DIVIDEND EFFECTS
Prospect Of Increase in Locomo-
tive and Other Stocks Served
AS Curb to Speculation.
EARLY DIVIDEND ID EFFECTS
(By Associated press.)

NEW YORK, Jan. 22.-The market gave
striking evidence again to-day of breadth
and strength notwithstanding the con-
tinuance of profit taking on u very large
scale. There was suggestion of the
large professional share in the market
in the systematic way In which the cell
Ing to realize profits was conducted and
in the solctous regard to the effect on
prices from this selling. The same thing
was suggested by the sudden way In
which strong stocks moved upward. be-
ing galvanized by the passing OF enor-
NOUS orders through the market In in
dividunl blocks on very large scale.
Inc volume of transactions showed some
shrinkage from last weeks average OF
daily transactions. The violent advances
In one or two stocks securing frequently
Tor some time past have given rise to a
feeling of anxiety over the possibility
OF corner. Anaconda and Reading are
the stocks especially pointed to by con-
lectures OF this kind. When they fell
back during the morning dealings the
effect was beneficial on the rest OF the
list. The conservative views reported In
the directorates of some OF the compa-
MES whose stocks have been supposed to
have prospect of early dividend In
creases served as curb to the violent
specuations in come OF these, the Amer
lean Locomotive stocks being a notable
example. United States Steel also seems
to be restrained by the uncertainty over
the company's policy regarding an early
resumption OF dividends. Union Pacific
and Amalgamated Copper were the not
abe centers of the profit taking South
ern Pacific taking ~ the advance. St.
Paul, on the other hand. continued the
aggressive advance begun Saturday.
The renewal OF heavy realizing in
Uniog Pacific and Amalgamated Copper
and the point squirt in Reading helped
to unsettle the late market. and the
closing was very irregular and fever!sh.

tempted to stop the disturbance. but
was roughly handled by the men and
finally summoned help from the near
est police station. Three ,patrolmen
were lowered into the shaft OF the
tunnel, 100 feat beneath the surface
OF the river. Although unused to the
tremendous air pressure In the locks,
the three officers, when they found the
laborers lighting desperately. urged
them 70 desist The enrAged workmen
turned on the officers ana threatened
to kill them II they interfered. The
officers. though almost overcome by
the high pressure Of air, advanced
with drawn revoIvers and warned the
combatants that they would kill the

board OF education are now busily en-
gagged In preparing data to be present.
ed to Secretary Metcalf of the depart

to the separation Of white and Japan
ese children In the public schools.
Secretary Metcalf is coming as the
personal representative Of President

by the Japanese government, and
while the local board is prepared to

Japanese. .a-zz
President Altman stated that repre-

the board was in strict compliance

the statement made by Chairman
Woodruff of the New York Republican
state committee that he will advise

campaign document issued by the In

Roosevelt has steadfastly adhered to
his determination not to write any let

HOOE FOUND GUILTY.
Hartje's Negro coachman Convicted
Of Perjury.

Hartje's Negro coachman Convicted
Of Perjury.
Pittsburg, Oct. 31-Clifford Hooe,
the negro, formerly coachman for Au-
gustus Hartje, has been convicted of
perjury in connection with deposit
ton against Mrs. Mary Scott Hartje
and which formed the basis Of the re-
cent sensational Hartje divorce trial.
The case was submitted to the jury at
1890. Only one ballot was taken and
when court convened at / o'clock p.
m. the verdict was announced.
The closing features of the case
were sensational and exciting in the
extreme. The attorneys during the ar
guments attacked one another indis-
ing the address Of Assistant District
Attorney Robb the negro defendant
jumped from his seat and shouted that
the attorney lied.
Attorney J. Scott Ferguson ad-
dressed the jury for the defense, max
ing an impassioned appeal for the ne
gro and criticising Assistant District
Attorney Robb Mr. Robb, in closing
the case for the state, scored not only
the defendant but also his counsel, be-
ing interrupted time and again, on one
occasion Mr.. Ferguson giving notice
that he would apply for a new trial
because of Mr.. Robb's remarks.
Judge R. B. Fraser's charge to the
jury was an impartial review of the
law and evidence, and thus ended a
trial which for scandal has seldom, II
ever, been equalled in Pittsburs.
