 The small fry financial acrobats are now getting in their work in the ups and downs of the market.
 Heavy foreign selling of stocks in this market was one of the early features, the liquidation amounting to probably 25,O00 shares, including the Pacific issues and United States Steels The last named predominated with probably 10000 shares, making total sales of United States Steel within less than a fortnight for foreign ac- count 6O.OO0 shares. Most securities were heavy on the other side before the local opening. Americans being from IA to 1 point down, with Union Pacific the weakest.
 The leaders of the recovery were Union Pacific, Reading, and Amalga- mated Copper, while Brooklyn Rapid Transit was also conspicuous. There was no news to account for the rise outside of the slightly better tone of the money market This was regard ed as meaning that the highest rate for call money has been seen for the time being. However, time money was firmer and but little was offering.
 St. Paul's extension to the Pacific coast acts as drug on the stock de- spite the roads good financial condi- tion. The original estimated cost of the extension was $75,0OOOOO The ac- tual cost, it is believed, will be about s1000, ,O00 which will exhaust all of the new capital raised. Shorts were driv- en in for nearly 2 1-2 points yesterday afternoon.
 Since the coupon on Southern Pacific became payable Tuesday the stock has been quite weak with liquidation in evidence. Traders who have left it alone have been selling it. It acts like shares upon entering the "ex-dividend" period.
 Southern Railway issues developed a good deal of weakness early in the day, though no special reason was as- signed for this. They were entirely without support, and bear operators had no difficulty in making lower quo- tations.
 The fact that nearly every one of the Iow-priced railroad stocks that was ostr 1ox sr quantity abroad gave the impression that foreigners were selling out of fear that there might be some reorganiza- tions.
 A firm, which often, gets good infor- nation regarding Washington affairs, and is supposed to follow the admins tration policy closely, bought a good many stocks on the early break chiefly Amalgamated Copper-but it also sold other stocks, such as Union Pacific.
 The National City bank of New York emphasized it's policy again of loaning only up to per cent, with call money ruling per cent higher on the board. The aggregate of per cent. loans, put out in $50,0O0 lots, was s, COOL 000
 From the action of Amalgamated Copper the past week it looks as though buying was of higher order than the selling. Under 60 it invaria- bly, resists pressure and comes back to 59 or 60 quickly after getting under 5S. Many persons think that it has seen it's evil days marketwise.

There was flat rate of 6 per cent. for time loans. Call money was re- newed to brokers at 1-2 per cent, and was quoted as high as 1-2 per cent. The Bank of England had a heavy reserve loss this week, but the exhibit it made is highly favorable when compared with other years. The Bank of France lost over $S,000,0O0.

Fishermen Find p More Victims Of

Block Island X. H. Feb. l4.-Block
Island had a brief respite from the
scenes Of death and suffering which
followed the collision of Watch Hi
Monday night between the Joy Line
steamer l.archmont and the coal lad
en- schooner Harry Knowlton. The
survivors % the wreck had been car
ried 10 the steamer Kentucky. which
conveyed them TO Providence for medi-
cal treatment
The Kenmcky's smoke was still Wis
ihle across the sound when a little
fishing schooner came hurrying In be-
fore The wind with her flag at half
mast 4 moment later a second fish
prman was seen heading in shore, also
flying the signal Of death from her
mast head. A third schooner and then
a fourth sailed In. each with a half
masted flag.
When the vessels reached shore life
savers and others were waiting 10 care
for the dead as they had cared for the
living and 10 prepare for shipment 20

one OF the most horrible disasters that
has ever occurred of the New Eng

As soon as the fishermen were with

cd their news asore. The sea had Civ
en- mp at least a portion Of its dead,
and the seamen had gathered In %
bodies. two OF them the bodies Of wo-
men. The little life saving stations
were once more turned into m0rgues.

dead were placed on the floor, side by
side. 10 await the arrival OF another

The bodies brought in were. with
one exception fully clothed. and in ad-

In the first months Of the Russia-Jspan
war we had q striking example OF the
necessity for preparation and the early
advantage Of those who, so to speak,
"have shinRled their roofs In dry
weather" The virtue Of preparation
has made history and given TO US our
greatest men. The Individuals well as
the nation should be prepared for any
emergency. Areyou prepared to success
fully combat the first cold you take? A
cold can be cured much more quickly
when treated az soon as it has been con-
tracted and before II has become settled
in the system. Chsmberlain's Cough
Remedy is famous for it's cures OF colds
and it should be kept at hand ready for

Philadelphia, Feb. 14.-The nayal
court OF inquiry which has been inves
tgating the murder OF Chief Master
alarms James Douglass on the United
States cruiser Tennessee has complet

THIRTY-EIGHTH ANNIVERSARY.

Rev. Preston Taylor, of Lea Avenue
Christian Church, preached to a large
and appreciative audience last Sun
day morning, the occasion being the
thirty-eighth anniversary of his en-
trance in the Christian ministry. After
the preliminary exercises, Elder Tay-
lor announced that Mindful was his
theme, and took his text from 2 Peter
3:2. He spoke of what a powerful
mind God had equipped man with to
remember the things which bind us
closer to God and humanity; to re-
member things that are cody
things that are pleasing to Cod to
remember to do the deeds of charity
that we have performed during our
lives. He said that he remembered
everything he had done in the history
of his Christian ministry. Elder Tay-
lor's discourse was a mastery effort
and was listened to attentively by the
whole congregation. He said that he
had tried and would always endeavol
to impress upon his congregation the
importance of being mindful of oul
Creator
The day had been set apart as rally
day." and at the morning service the
sum of $9OO1 was raised. The rail-!
will continue through next Sunday.

ordered by the court that judgment
heretofore entered overruling the de-
PENDANTS motion is set aside and for
nothing held, and the defendant is
granted new trial. Thereupon the

This, it would seem, is the agree
ment entered into by Mr. Mayfield and
the State of Tennessee, and it ap-
pears that there is no stipulation en-
tered into whereby Mr.. Mayfleld was to
leave town Since he did not leave
Nashville, the place where he was
born and has lived all of his life, the
above order was set aside and the
case has gone to the Supreme

field are glad to hear that he has
taken this course rather than ALLOW
