BULLS AND BEARS.


Srec'al Cablegram to TIE Star.
NEW YORK, January 4-There h very
little doubt that prime cause of much of
this weeks liquidation in stocks was the In
terest charge to commission house Gus
toners of the December accounts. State
ments OF the accounts we're generally In
the hands of the customers last Tuesday
morning and since then Wall street has
been filled with growis both loud and deep.
Probably the growing would have been
at minimum had 1t not been for the great
differences in interest charges as between
one house and another, which caused those
who had to pay the highest rates to rage
like the heather and say vain things. In
some cases the discrepancies have already
resulted in the withdrawal Of speculative
accounts.
Many large traders who operate through
two or more houses. finding difference Of
several per cent between the charges made
by their various brokers, have been filled
with unutterable anguish which they have
not been at any pains to conceal. Some
have fatty demanded that their December
charges be reduced under penalty of taking
their business elsewhere.
In general the speculative fraternity
large and small, has been hearing such sto-
ries as have disturbed its equanimity and
the continuation of rather stringent money
market conditions has ensued on this frame
of mind sufficiently to cause the smaller
fry of margin leaders at least, to tighten
their loads, with the result OF making
considerable total of selling.
Meanwhile the brokers' life and lot have
not been happy, Not a few houses charged
their customers as low as per cent and
made money. Others charged Z. or and
made money. The street suspects that In
some cases houses that charged the mini
mum rates did so at sacrifice. 1t is prob
ably true, however. that the lower rates
showed that the brokers who charged them
had fortunately had SO much time money
in proportion to their borrowings on call
that their interest average was kept down
and they were able to charge from 6 to
per cent and still make a little money for
the use of their credit.

CHURCHILL,s PLATFORM.
The Novelist Says NOn-Interference
of Corporations in State Politics
IL the Great Issue.

Concord, N. H., July 21.-Winstor
Churchill, novelist, formally opened
his campaign for the republican nom
nation for governor of New Hamp.
shire at a rally in this city Friday
night. Mr., Churchill is running on a
platform, the principal plank Of which
is non-interference of corporations in
state politics. In his address Friday
night Mr.. Churchill said, regarding
the alleged interference Of corpora
lions in the government and politics
of New Hampshire:
TN my opinion, this is not only the
greatest issue in New Hampshire, but
the most important in the United
States. 1t is going to win eventually
all over the United States and largely
because one man had the magnificent
courage and foresight to get up and
lead Americans in this second war
for independence and that man Is
Theodore Roosevelt"

MANY WANT PANAMA BONDS
Bids Were Received at the Treasury
Department for $30,000,000.
The Entire Issue Has Been Sub
scribed for Many Times Over mt
from 1O3.04 to 1O3.00.

Washington, July 21.-Bids were
opened at the treasury department
late Friday for the $3O,0OO,OOO ten
thirty Panama canal bonds under
Secretary Shaw's circular Of July 2
and although no awards will be made
until Saturday or later, 1t is evident
that the entire issue has been sub
scribed for at an average of from
l03.94 to 1896. Secretary Shaw and
other officials Of the treasury depart
ment expressed themselves highly
pleased with the figures obtained.
The total number and amounts Of
bids made will not be ascertained I'M
til Saturday but 1t is apparent that
the whole issue has been subscribed
for several times over. The largest
and best single offer was that of Fisk
& Robinson, of New York, who made
six bids of five millions each, at an
average of 1886. Smaller bids at
higher prices, however, will probably
reduce the amount which will likely
be awarded to them to about $15,OO0,-
900. One bid of LOG for the whole is
sue came from man named Lindsay
at New Orleans, but on account OF
conditions named and for other rea-
sons the bid was not considered. Sew
eral telegraphic bids were received
too late to be considered, but the
prices named were too small to be
successful.
The secretary having stated that the
bonds would be numbered serially, be-
ginning with the highest bid, one Of
fer was made at 125 for $1,000, thus
securing to the bidder bond No. l
An examination of the best bids shows
that offers of 1O4 1-16 and up aggre'
gated $15,349, $3.50; 104 to 104 lie ag'
gregated $1,1OO,SSO; 1O3.75 to 1O4 ag'
gregated $14,17S,OOO.
A bid Of 1888 is the lowest at
which any of the bonds can be award
ed.

MORE TROUBLE FOR ROSE.
Mayor of Kansas City, Kan, Again
Cited for Contempt by Kan
sas Supreme Court.

Topeka, Kan, July 2O.-In the Kan
sas state supreme court Thursday At
torney General Coleman filed second
contempt case against W. w. Rose
mayor of Kansas City, Kan. The
court at once issued an order to Mayor
Rose to appear and show cause why
he should not be adjudged in contempt
for holding the Office of mayor Of
Kansas City after having been ousted
by the court. The order is returnable
July 30. The case is identical with
the one now pending before the SUI
preme court of the United States on a
writ of error.
Attorney General Coleman an
nounced Thursday that he would con-
tinue to bring contempt proceedings
against Mayor Rose as long as he held
office until the first case was finally
settled by the United States supreme
court.
A second contempt case against
Mayor W. W. Rose, Chief of Police
Vernon ]. Rose and Police Captain ].
F. Kelley was also fled Thursday by
Mr.. Coleman. The three defendants

AGAINST ST. JOSEPH SALOONS.


st. Joseph, July 21,-Judge John A.
Rich, of Slater, who sat as special
Judge in the Buchanan county GRIMM
al court to try the case of dramshop
keeper arrested for selling liquor on
Sunday when .the cid" was off in
st. Joseph, rendered decision against
the saloonkeepeTs Friday.
Judge Rich held that the general
Sunday closing statute applies to cities
of the second class and that when
the legislature enacted that cities of the
second class should have exclusive right
to regulate their dramshops, 1t was
meant to give them such rights as
were not specified in the general law
and not inconsistent with the statutes.
This is in accord with the position
taken by Governor Folk when he or
dered the police to close the saloons
on Sunday and prosecute their keep
ers under the general Sunday closing
law.

Guatemala, Salvador and Honduras
Reach Terms Acceptable to
the Three Republics.
SIGNED ON THE MARBLEHEAD
Governments of United States and
Mexico We're Active I'm Bring
ing About the Cessation
of HOstiIIties.

San Jose, Guatemala, July GA
treaty of peace between Guatemala,
Salvador and Honduras was signed
Friday on board the United States
cruiser Marblehead, on the high seas
off the Guatemalan coast.
The peace commissioners Of Guate-
mala were landed Friday.
The commissioners Of Salvador
and Honduras will be landed at Aca-
Julia early Saturday.
The members Of the American lega-
ton will land at the respective points
where they are accredited.
There was strenuous discussion
and some difficulty In reaching mu-
tually acceptable conditions. The
Mexican minister, Senior Gamboa, was
active in assisting In bringing about
an agreement.
The peace commissioners adopted
resolutions thanking the presidents OF
the United States and Mexico for their
Intervention.
The Central American war, which
babe fair to involve four or more re-
publics in addition to the two original
ly concerned, Salvador and Guatemala,
began in May with the departure OF
expeditions from Salvador to assist
Guatemalan revolution under the
leadership of General Toledo. En-
gagements with varying results were
fought between the insurrectionary
forces and those of the government OF
Guatemala, until Salvador formally
entered the conflict. Later Guate-
malan force entered Honduras, the
result being to array that republic on
the side of Salvador.
From the moment the trouble passed
beyond the phase of an internal dis
turhance the government at Washing
ton set about instituting measures for
the reestablishment of peace. The
cruiser Marblehead was ordered from
Panama to LaLiberta with directions
to report to Leslie Combs, American
minister to Guatemala and Honduras,
and Mr.. Combs and William l.. Merry,
minister to Costa Rico, Nicaragua and
Salvador, were instructed to use their
best endeavors with the belligerents
to bring the war to an end. At the
same time David e. Thompson, Amer
lean ambassador to Mexico, was in
structed to make such representations
to the Mexican government as might
enlist its efforts for the same end,
Mexico's desire for peace between Its
neighbors being well known. Mexico
entered heartily into the project, and
its diplomatic representatives in Guat-
emala and Salvador were instructed
to cooperate with Ministers Merry
and Combs. Guatemala, Salvador and
Honduras agreed to an armistice be-
ginning at o'clock the morning OF
July IS, in order that representatives
of these governments might meet with
the American and Mexican diplomats
on board the cruiser Marblehead to
consider terms for treaty ofpeace.
The conference began July 10, the
cruiser being then on the high seas
off the coast Of Guatemala, the Marble
head being practically neutral terri
tory. Things. proceeded expeditiously
with the result that terms mutually
acceptable to the three republics were
arranged july 20
