PLACE OF BURIAL IN DOUBT
BODY OF RICHARD EVANS MAY
BE INFERRED HERE.
Stewards of Church at Potomac De.
eide Remains Cannot Have Rest
ing Place in Cemetery There.

Relatives of Richard Evans, alleged
assajlant of little Maggie Capitola Col
Inns, who committed suicide rather than
surrender to the Montgomery county au-
thOrities, came here this morning for the
purpose of making final arrangements
for the funeral. 1t was announced yes
terday that the body would be inferred
in the cemetery at Potomac Chapel NJ f..
Church tomorrow at noon, but this morn
ing Undertaken Mccarthy was informed
that the burial would not be permitted
there.
Word reached some of the relatives
yesterday that there were persons resid-
ing In the vicinity of Potomac who would
probably cause trouble should the body
be taken there but they did not believe
such trouble would materialiZe. 1t was
pointed out that the grandparents of the
suicide had been inferred in the cemetery
and his relatives knew of no good reason
why objection should be offered to the
burial of the body of young Evans there.
Objection to interment in the cemetery
was raised by stewards of the church.
They discussed the affair and gave reia-
tives of tine deceased to understand that
they would have to bury the body else
where, and today the parents and other
relatives came to this city to make ar
rangements for the funeral
Undertaken Mccarthy said this after
noon he had been told that the body
could not be buried at Potomac Chapel
He also said that final arrangements for
the interment had not been made 1t
is thought that the funeral will occur
Monday and that the body will find a
resting place in Glenwood cemetery.

MADE MONEY BEGGING.
Mute Got $12.2l in One Day, but
Stayed in Town Too Long.

George Lansing, a mute, arrested late
last night for begging on the streets,
was convicted this morning in the Po-
lice Court and committed to the work
house for ninety days in default of $25
fine. Lansing carried on a written con-
versation with the court, and all Of his
testimony was given in the same manner
He said he was on his way to Philadel-
phia from the west and became stranded
in this city. He admitted begging. but
said 1t was for the purpose Of obtaining
funds to purchase ticket to his home
city. The case was apparently going In
Lansing's favor when the policeman in
the case handed the court a small &C.
count book.
An examination showed that Lansing
arrived in Washington November 4. and
as aims and every cent expended was
neatly entered. In addition to the ac-
count marked Washington entries had
been made for several other cities
The washington account showed that
s12. 21 had been taken in on one day and
the other days Of the defendants stay
here.
How much does a ticket to Philadsl-
phia cost?" asked the court through the
pencil and pad method
Between IS and &c." came the reply
in the same way.
The money you've collected here in
Washington is enough to buy six or seven
tickets at that rate. Explain that
You see, 1t is this way-I-I-LI.
But-but-but-- stammered Lansing's
pad.
Ninety days won't hurt you," wrote
the court
Lansing had but a few dollars left
from his ten-day visit and retired into
the court pens.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

If it had not been for the demand for
gas stock at today's meeting OF the STOCK
exchange and the corresponding supply
the small amount of the the days trad
ing might have been put down to the
combined influence Of the half day and
the cold rain. Outside Of gas stock there
was not much done, nor In fact very
much inclination to do any business.
The call of the list did not result in
changes of any consequence In the ng-
ures, and 1t was evident that orders were
few and far between. 1t was quite diff
ferent when gas stock was called for 1t
soon became apparent that the rise in the
price of this security-or rather the check
to the downward course which had been
pursued up to yesterday-was in full
operation today.
The stock sold yesterday for "a, which
is a higher price than was paid in pre-
vious days. Today the bid began on that
level and soon advanced by eighths of
point and when 64A was reached the
principal seller of the day was disclosed
He sold twenty-five shares at that bid.
but was unwilling to sell, except at
rise of an eighth of point, and he sold
up to GAN on this plan.
At one time there were several bidders
on the floor for fifty-share lots. for which
they were willing to give 641s. and one of
the brokers was willing to give that for
100 shares. However. the seller apparent
ly had his limit in price, il not in quanti-
ty of stock to be disposed of, and SO he
held off for his scale of prices.
Some transactions were reported at 64%,
but not from the main seller. 1t was no
ticed that the demand for the stock with
in the limits named was unusually keen,
and three or four brokers seemed to be
anxious to acquire it. The change In the
situation, occurring, as it does, rather
suddenly from general indifference to one
of active interest, aroused q good deal of
attention, but, as Is usually the case in all
market movements in this security, no
one seems to know why there should
have been today a demand for the stock.
The close of the week marks the close
Of a period Of much consequence to those
interested in local securities, as it shows
a gradual appreciation In prices and con-
siderable progress made In the recovery
from the prevailing low levels Of the past
year of depression.
What has happened here is P counter
part of what has been going on In The
general market, which is based, as every
one knows. on the gradual improvement
in business. The same change in condi-
lions has also taken place here, and while
in this city, as is the case elsewhere, the
feeling is that the recovery is not as
RAPID as some would like to have 1t, still
it is realized the progress thus far is sub
stantial

UNIFORM BILL OF LADINa.
National Traffic League Begins New
Fight at Chicago.

CHICAGO, November 1.-THE National
Traffic League has begun a new fight on
the uniform bill of lading. At a meeting
held yesterday the executive committee
of the league instructed the bill of lading
committee to collate all of the objections
to the uniform bill of lading and present
them to the executive committee at it's
January meeting.
In addition to this. the executive COM
mittee Is going to try to get the railroads
to reconsider the clause of the bill which
provides for 10 per cent advance in the
rate when the carrier accepts shipments
at the carriers risk or when the shipper
does not wish to abide by the restrictions
of the bill of lading.
1t is contended by the shippers that
no charge more than the extra insurance
upon the shipments is illegal and that
this extra insurance cannot be measured
at the same figure for all commodities,

land, who made his first appearance in
this country last night at the Paramount

to be a good, clever puncher, but his
blow didn't have much effect The con-
test lasted for the six rounds.
In the first round DriscOll landed on
Baldwin's mouth and drew first blood.
He kept his good work up throughout
the contest, landing blow after blow on
the head and body. With the exception
of the fifth round. Driscoll did all the
fighting. In this round the Boston lad
landed a good blow on the Englishman' S
head.
Baldwin refused to weigh in at 6 clock

more than Driscoll.

Today's Trading Marked by
Great IrreguIarity.
HEAVY PROFIT REALIZING
Sales Appeared to 0utstrip New Buy
ing Orders.
REACTIONARY TENDENCIES
Sharp Rise in Illinois Central.
Glowing Trade Reports
Please Brokers.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, November 1.-THE deal
1ngs in today's stock market were con-
Quoted upon an undated scale of ac-
tivity, but the trading was marked by
great irregularity in price movements.
Temporarily. at any rate, the volume OF
profit-realizing sales. particularly in the
more active issues, appear to outstrip the
new buying orders and such stocks as
the United States Steel shares and
Union Pacific showed quite reactionary
tendencies.
The local traction issues continued eX-
Ceptionally firm, but otherwise price
changes throughout the market were
highly irregular, although for the most
part limited in one direc ion or another.
In the miscellaneous group American
Telephone and Telegraph was decidedly
strong, as were Consolidated Gas ana
Brooklyn Union Gas. No news or gossip
of novelty attended, however, the trans
actions in the stocks mentioned.
In the railway list sharp rise was
noted in Illinois Central and Northern
Pacific was comparatively Steady, while
Great Northern was heavy.
London Market Movements.
The London stock market, including the
American department also, moved uncer-
tainly, and operations here for foreign &C.
count were conducted upon fairly large
scale on both sides of the market.
The most interesting feature of the
morning situation was the publication
of weekly reports Of the mercantile agen-
cies upon the state of the country's trade,
ana glowing accounts of the revival In
progress were SCI. forth.
Little interest appeared to be taken in
the outlook for the weekly bank state
ment, except in regard to the prospective
change in the loan item. The preliminary
forecasts of that document pointed, how
ever. to fairly favorable exhibit.
TRANSACTIONS in the bond market con-
tinued exceedingly active, and the deal
inss there showed little of the irregular
tendencies which characterized those in
the stock market.
