Chairman Splits GsVsl.

According to the Globe Demo
crat, the Democratic state con-
yention in session at Jefferson
City, came very near having a
riot yesterday over the PROPOSE
tion of the disfranchisement Of
the negro vote in Missouri.
Mayor Tom Crittenden Of Kan
sas City at the opening Of the
convention tried to get his re-
silution before the delegates.
Pandemonium preyoiled for full
twenty minutes. " Temporary
chairman Atkison spIntered the
wooden gavel trying 70 restore
order. A steel hammer was sub
stituted and it took considerable
hammering to bring about a
measure Of quiet.
The resolution was referred to
the committee where it was killed
but will be brought before the
convention which meets in Sep
tember. In commenting upon the
resolution, Elk Governor Dockery
said, we must not forget that
we Democrats, now and then vote
these blacks. The trouble in Mis-
souri,, let me say to Mr.. Critten-
den, is not with the negro vote
but with these obstreperous
Democrats. "
The convention selected Gov.
Folk, w. j. Stone, Dave Francis
and Jim Reed as the big four
with Gov. Dockery, Gov. Stew
ems, Gov. Crittenden and Col.
Whetmore as alternates.

New York, July l2.--It will be the farmer of the United States and not the capitalist who will reap the first and greatest benefit from the tide of returning prosperity. Is the opinion of Stuyvssant Fish, former President of the nlinois Central Railroad. who, with Mrs. Fish, sailed for Europe yes- terday.
 He said that while the crops will be in great volume this fall and the re- sources of the railroads will be taxed to their capacity in moving them, it will be shs farmer. end not the rail- road. that will gain.
 There will be tremendous in crease in the gross earnings of the railroads, c result of the great -in- creases in traffic" said Mr. Fish. but on account of tho high price of labor. there will be no improvement in the net earnings The farmers will get the beneft. While the railroads will be busy they will not be making money with which to purchase new ma terials or for making Improvements in roadbeds or extending their line."
 Mr. Fish said he did not look for any immediate improvement in the business situation. Incidentally he took occasion to tell of hardships which the rich are called upon to en- dure in times of business depression and financial stringency.
 Tt is harder for a man who has been living at the rate of 220o. 900 a year to set down to s6O.000 a year standard.'' said he. "thAn 1t is for a man who has been living on Sl5 a week to get down to @t0. know of many wealthy people who have not enough ready cash to pay their ordinary bills :"

 4 relay race so extensive as this has probably never been attempted and in- terest in the affair is great, especially in athletic circles. Each of the run ners will carry the message half a mile and the average time for each half mile will be about two minutes and thirty-eight seconds. according to the tests that have been made.
 At 10 a. m, next Wednesday the first boy will be sent away from the starting point at the city hall here. He will be handed a silver tube containing the Mayors message and then a pistol shot will start him on the first stage Of the journey from the city hall being up Broadway.
 How enth husiastically the members of the Young Mems Christian Associa- ton have entered into the contest is evidenced by the large number who made application to participate.
 More than 100000 applications were reCetVeus EACn DFhACn Oi tno 1OuHS Mems Christian Association, ins the cities along the course will furnish the runners for it's district, taking as the standard of selection boys who repre- sent the spirit of the Association.
 The course has been carefully laid out from government survey maps, the easiest and straIghtest highway roads between here and Chicago being select ed. The route has been divided into sections of from fifteen to ninety miles each.
 Tn this State the runners will pass through Poughkeepsie, Albany, Sche- nectady, Little Falls. Utica, Syracuse Geneva. Rochester. Buffalo and scores of smaller cities and towns. Some of the larger cities west of Buffalo which are on the course are Erie, Cleveland. Toledo. Adrian. Coldwater and South Bend.
 Automobiles containing emergency runners will follow the racers over the various divisions so that a fresh rum ner can be supplied in case or accident to any of the regular contestants.

MACHINERY AT GoLDsBORo.

 Bailey Is still at large but the others were taken under arrest from here to New York.
 The machinery Is to be held here pending proceedings in the Honduras courts for It's recovery by the creditors of the Export Shipping Company.

THE STOCK MARKET

New York, July 1.-The speculative tone today lacked decision and the fluctuations Of prices were uncertain as the room traders shifted tneir op- erations from one side to the other of the market The early advices reveal ed the needs of tn bears. wno put out short contracts yesterday on larger scale. when they detected the volume of the profit taking sales. When prices rallied today with the help of the short covering the sales To take profits were renewed and the bears. perceiving this, renewed their short sales. The motive underlying the self ing was the realizing on account of the adjournment of the Democratic Convention, earlier purchases having been made in aticipation of a new de- tion of the work of the two conven- tions.
 There was little news bearing on values. The money market came in Tor additional consideration, a feature being some increase in the demand Tor six montbs loans carrying over the end or the year. While the present nominal rate for call loans offers an modations. apparently the 3 1-2 per cent rate for six months loans seems sufficiently reasonable to induce some provisions against needs for that pe- rfod In consideration of possible light ening of the money marekt during the fall. The firm tone of the foreign ex- change market at rate near the gold export level and the knowledge that Berlin fs still offering extra induce- ments 10 secure gold, kept alive the question of a renewed gold outgo.
 The strength in the grain markets initiated against the stock market and there was no effective recovery. from the secondary weakness. Intim- ations of a decline in the banking sur plus to be shown by the bank state ment were heard before the market closed. The decrease in cash shown by the statement of averages must be attributed to the carried over effect of last weeks withdrawals by the trust companies to meet their added obligation to maintain cash reserves, those institutions gaining this weeK weeks acquisition of $1s.500000. in contrast with the loss in cash shown by the averages the catual condition of the banks shows a cash gain Of W,30o,00O. which is almost twice as great as the gain indicated by the weeks currency movement. A re-rrans- fer of funds from the trust companies, seems to be indicated by this item. A free expansion of loans is shown from all points of view. United States de- posits have decreased during the week some s6.30o.o0o. Bonds were irregu- lar: Total sales, par value S1,456,00o. United States two's haSe declined 3-ec on call during the week.

FINANCIAL REVIEW.
DfspasiftOn is to AbandOn the waiting
 Attitude.

AHtAbU0Gs
 New York, July 12.-Last weeks security market gave a clear reflection of the determination arrived at by an effective number of stock market par- ticipants to throw of the waiting attt- tude maintained for some time past and to act on their conviction that bet ter things were in prospect for business and industry.
 In contrast with the absolute stag nation into which the market had fall en by the close of the preceding week there had sprung up degree of anima- ton not equalled before since the early period of June, the average daily tran eaction rising well over half a million shares.
 There was expansion also in the bond division and a broadening demand in that department which was almost en- couraging to sentiment. The assur- ance of abundant supplies of banking resources throughout the year, the promise of crop yields above the aver ing termination of the sessions of the Democratic National Convention were the main factors in stimulating the new speculative departures.
 The spirit of uncertainty and the consequent halt In business activity have become so much a matter of course in years of National political
  mating the uncertainties are of recog- nized beneficial effect. The naming of the candidates of the two great poIIti- l, cal parties and the defining of the is- sues on which the campaign is to be fought were accepted as steps towards knowledge on which to base the esti- mate of the outcome and were acted upon in this light
 The piling up of loanable funds in banking reserves and the resulting pressure to find profitable employment for these sums have an almost infaI- lible effect. in opening up a demand for well secured bonds and dividend pay ing stocks.
 Great importance was attached to the symptoms last week of reviving trade. The most striking of these were re- ported from the steel trade where re- sumption on a large scale of operations fin the steel mills in the Pittsburg dis trict were chronicled. with renewel of employment for thousands of laborers who had been idle and without pay for several months. Special signific- ance was attached to the large propor- tion of the new orders for steel which l were received from the agricultural ! implement makers as indicating well informed operation of the prosperous conditions of the farming community and the good promise for the years crops.
 Railroad earnings do not yet show improvement. The American Rail- ways Association, has reported a fur eher decrease of 36,696 in the number of freight cars idle In the two weeks ending June 24, making a total reduc- fion Of over 100000 cars from the greatest idle equipment of April.
 Railroads in the Northwest are re- ported to be calling in their freight aeouipment from foreign lines in prepa- ration for a large traffic movement when the crops move.
 Tn various minor lines of industry come evidences of reviving demand and preparations for increased production 70 meet 1t.

 Records.
VICTORY OF AMERICAN TEAM

Washington, July 12.--The victory of the American rifiemen at the Olympic shoot in England gives great satisfac- tion not only to rifiemen and guards men generally. but to army men as well.
 Lieutenant Albert S. Jones, Secretary of the National Rifle Association of America. has received the following telegram from President Roosevelt:
 Accept my hearty congratulations and extend them to the team wh ich has done so well.
 Theodore Roosevelt"
 General William Crozfer, Chief of Ordnance. had this to say today of the teams victory:
 the new rifle and ammu milton as shown by the victory of the American team demonstrated that the shortening of the army rife has not been followed by any decrease in It's accuracy, as predicted once that the ammunition used though not of government make, nevertheless carried a sharp pointed bullet similar to the one recently adopt ed by this department Consequently the result of the Olympic shot is highly gratifying.
 "At the coming National Rifle Asso- cistfon matches at Camp Perry. Ohio; it Is expected that the new rifle and ammunition will establish new rec ords at all distances."
 General Robert Shaw Oliver, Assist ant Secretary of War. cabled to General Drain the following:
 Hearty congratulations to you and your men for the great victory"
 General Oliver said today:
 This victory means much for the cause of rife shooting Tn this country. IL shows that the United States still leads the world in individual skill, but what we want is a greater number of sharp shooters instead of a few ex- perts and we are gradually reaching that point through the instrumentality of the annual matches, the liberal ap- prcpriations of Congress for ranges and practice and the rife clubs Of the Ma tional Rife Association.
 A meeting of the Executive Commit tee of the National Rifle Association will be held in this city on Wednesday to arrange details for a welcome home reception to the victorious team.
