.A WEAK TINE
 u uEiu fOf1L ID THE MARKET DID N0T HURT
New York Had a Good Day, But Copper Stocks Weaken ed Some--Greene- Cananea Active.
(By Frank !. Graf.)

Today's market was very weak and from the tone of the market it looAeo as though there would be much low CT prices at the close than at the opening. This, however, was far from being the case, for at the close there was considerable buying going on, and better prices prevailed, closing at the high point for the day. which was almost a full point over the opening. The New York market was also very strong during the day, it being one of the largest trading on the exchange for almost year past. Amalgamated was subjected to considerable selling during the day, but at the close was we'll supported at 67.
 The copper market weakened somewhat, but not so much as the minion, North Butte and Butte Coali- ton were about the most sought after stocks on the list.
 East Butte and Greene Cananea were the most active stocks in the curb list. East Butte is making won- derful progress at the property and would not be surprised to see this stock selling at a much higher price. Greene Cananea is well supported at g If to g 1-2. although sales are not as numerous as they have been in the past. Superior & Pittsburg is inclin- ed to show a slight weakness, al though there is but very little stock being pressed for sale. The entire market is looking good, that is in spite of the advance that has been going on for the past two weeks, it would be perfectly natural that a slight reaction might take place, but very much to the contrary all stocks are holding up very we'll

GOV. SMITH IS ADAMANT.
Refuses to Spare Glover, Even for
Tom Watson.

Atlanta, Jan. 26.-Although Thomas E
Watson is popularly supposed to have
done more than any other nan to make
Hoke Smith governor of Georgia, Gov
Smith has denied the only request which
Watson has made. Watson. in a three
hours conference, pleaded with the gov
ernor to spare from the gallows Arthur
Glover. of Augusta. who in a fit of jeal-
ousy murdered his mistress.
Watson told the governor that the jury
had been prejudiced by the statement
that Glover was a Populist and partisan
of his, that Glover once had been instru-
mental in saving his life when threatened
by a mob during his Congressional de-
bate in Augusta in 1892. and, finally. that
he considered Glover to have been tenn
porarily insane at the time of the crime.
Mr.. Watson said that this was the only
request he had made of Gov. Smith since
his election. Gov. Smith was unmoved
and told Watson the law must take its
course

Utica. Jan. 26.-A most remarkable
criminal conspiracy that threatens to en-
veIop the sons Of many prominent Utica
families, and send a number Of heretofore
highly respected young men to the Elmirs
Reformatory or other similar institutions.
has been uncovered by the local police.
The arrest Of two students Of the Utica
Free Academy. Ashley Locke. aged nine
teen, and John P. Jones, aged eighteen,
on the charge Of burglary. and their sub
sequent confessions TO the district attor-
ney. comprise a remarkable chapter
Jones is a son of a leading Welsh cIer-
gyman here. and in addition to pursuing
his studies at the Utica Academy has
been employed as a reporter on a local
newspaper. BY his own confession, Jones
started on his career Of crime by looting
the cIassrooms at the academy, stealing
money, wearing apparel, and school sup
plies These thefts were fully described
by Jones in various articles he wrote for
the newspaper by which he was employed.
His next field of operations was in a
drug store, which he robbed Of nearly
500 in cash at different times while tele-
phoning to his Office in connection with
stories he was assigned TO cover. Success
prompted him 10 take in a partner. and
he invited his schoolmate, Ashley Locke,
to join him.
Others among the students also went
into the criminal combine about this time,
according 10 the confessions Of Jones and
Locke. and the scope of their thefts was
considerably extended Burglaries were
reported from different sections of the
city nightly but the police were unable
TO discover the guilty.
Robbed His NeighbOr.
The climax of the young mans daring
robbed the home of a contractor residing
next to Jones own home. Jones father
az the time was preaching in his pulpit,
while the lads mother and sister were
at home i'll. The two women heard the
racket next door, and surmising that
burglars were looting their neighbor's
home. crawled under a bed for safety.
When the crime was reported to the
police that night Jones was assigned by
his newspaper TO cover il, and he wrote
a thrilling account of the burglary.
Next, Jones and his gang turned their
ention TO the newspaper office where
was employed, and climbing a fire
escape, smashed window, and stole the
pay envelopes of his fellow wOTkmen,
and, incidentally, his own.
Jones and his companions used the
proceeds of their crimes to speculate in
the stock market, and this eventually led
to their downfall With Locke. Jones
was arrested for theft at the Utica
Academy; then their stock speculation
deals We're discovered. and under pressure
they confessed everything, and involved
other students in their operations. Jones
and Locke have been held for the grand
jury. Additional arrests are looked for
within the next Jwenty-four hours.

Cedar Rapids Republican,

The Whitelaw Reds have married
their daughter to an English nobleman
of some kind. The young man does not
hold exalted titles for the reason that
his is younger son. He has been In
the employ of the king OF England
on his personal staff. Having accom-
plished this great end in life, the Reds
are now said to be willing to return
to America and to private life. 1t must
have been great strain on their So
cial ambitions to undergo the doubts
and fears that were attendant upon
getting their only daughter married
out Of her own class. No American
man, 1t seems. was considered quite
good enough for the daughter OF the
man who succeeded Horace Greeley
as the editor OF the New York Tribune.
Reid himself began life on an Ohio
farm During the war of the rebellion
he made some reputation as corre-
spondent He was near Horace Greeley
when that great mans mind was going
out and due time, thru the financial
assistance of rich father-in law. Mr..
Reid bought the paper and he has at
the same time had money enough to
follow career according to his tastes.
But these plain American people from
the farms In one generation grew am
bilious for the social honors that lies
close to royalty They have won their
fight. They have the son-in-law they
long have sought. May they all be
happy.

Roosevelt and the Third Term.


1t was sheer nonsense to regard the
Chicago convention as dominated for
his own purpose by the strong hand
of a single man. Mr.. Roosevelt's DOM
nance has merely meant the intelligent
and voluntary support of his leader
ship by countless thousands of men
whose opinions and aims he has tried
to represent rather than to dictate.
He Is by nature didactic, and he Is
great preacher of social ethics and po-
litical progress, as we'll as a states

nomination and effectually to prevent

1t would go to some one else. Not
only did he show great firmness and
poise of character in this remuneration.
but the convention itself showed a
high quality Of self-control that may
justly be regarded by thoughtful men
Of all parties as another reassuring
evidence of our American capacity for
self government. 1t was the belief of
the convention that Mr.. Roosevelt could
carry every state that he carried In
1904 and probably several southern
states in addition. Every delegation
on the floor of that convention had
reasons of greater or less strength for
desiring an assured republican success
by sweeping majorities, rather than a
good fighting chance without certainty
of victory. Yet the convention reso-
lutely took Mr.. Roosevelt at his word,
and proceeded to nominate Mr.. Taft In
a spirit of great good will. There
was no law or rule OF any kind against
Mr.. Roosevelt; and in the
face of concrete conditions mere
custom or theory as to a third term
seems to lose weight and substance.
