LESS GLOOM
ON MARKET
7H7 Htt ffta
Still all Efforts to Make
Material Headway are
Without Results

NEW YORK, March 6.-Profes-
sional operations in the market were
on a larger scale than recently dur
ing the early hours of the days ses-
sion at the stock exchange Discour-
agement then overcame the traders
again at the small response attract
ed by their efforts and shortly after
midday the market had swung back
into lethargy. The price fluctuations
were narrow and the bulk of the
days moderate business was trans
acted at prices higher than the clos
ing last night. Traders were in
clined to operate on the long side of
the market because of the scanty
SUPPLY of floating stock in the mar
ket available for overcoming short
contracts.
Added to this negative attraction
of the long side were several devel-
opments in the news which was in
terpreted as hopeful of Improvement
in business conditions. The two
leading organs of the iron trade were
agreed in the opinion that a slight
and slow improvement is occurring
in that industry and its allied
branches. The maintenance Of the
dividend of American Car stock and
the showing of surplus over the d.
yidend requirement, in spite of the
falling on in net earnings, WAS a
contributory influence in the feeling
OF confidence regarding the iron out
look modifying influence was the
report of some shading of the prices
of iron in different markets and un-
certainty over future prices.
The stock market element had
thrown OF, to some extent, the
fright of yesterday over the Hep
burn bill to tax stock transfers. As
sertion that this plan was to have
administration support brought out
a citation from President Roosevelt's
last message to congress which was
given general circulation about the
stock exchange. In which he said
The great bulk of the business
transacted on the exchanges Is not
only legitimate but necessary. and
extreme care will have to be taken
not to interfere with this business In
doing away with the bucketshop type
of operation.
This quotation afforded some com
fort to the disturbed minds of the
brokers. The reduction In the Bank
of England official discount rate had
slight effect abroad or here. The ac-
cumulation of banking reserves In
foreign centers and In this country
Is recognized as having been the com
mon cause of declining trade actfy-
ity, and evidence of increasing money
supplies, for this reason, is accepted
with mixed sentiments. An item IN
the days news that gave gratihca-
ton was the decrease in surplus Of
freight cars reported by the Amez1-
can Railway association, the number
reported on February 10 falling to
32O,513. compared with 343,928 on
February 8. Another reduction In
the price at the local metal ex-
change had a depressing influence on
the coppers. An important bank fail
ure in Rio de Janeiro had a dampen-
ing effect on such life as the market
showed. The days uncertain move
ment ended with little change from
last nights prices.

HARRY LEWIS IN AUGUSTA.
Champion WeIterweight Arrives In
City on Way to Bangor.

Harry Lewis, the welterWeight
champion of the world. fresh as 4 daisy
from Ills recent victory over Larry
Temple, arrived in this city yesterday.
He visited the Journal office before re-
firing to his hotel and informed the
sporting editor that he is in grand con-
dition and feels no i'll effects from his
hard bout with Temple. Il shall begin
hard work this afternoon" said Lewis.
"as soon as | am sufficiently rested
from my long trip. l did road work
yesterday afternoon and spared some
at my training quarters at Mike Dew
eneys place near Boston, and I know
that | am good.
"A great number of my friends ex-
peCted me to finish Tcmplc.' said
Lewis, but | took no chances"
THAT Colorcd man is a dangerous
fellow to mix things with, and I knew
that if | did that at the early stage of
the game would have wasted Il lot of
energy that worked more advantage
ouSv for me at the close. From the
ninth round on ] had Temple just
where | wanted him and | won in q
, Canter.
This bout with Donovan at Bangor
on the 10Th Of this month is the biggest
thing | have yet tackled and | was not
going to take any chances of losing a
decision at this stage with so much in
sight for me.
ANY man that can make trouble
for such men as Barry. Langford VOL
colt and Blackburn is no adversary to
fool with. He had weight on me, too,
which was a big thing in his favor.
This man Donovan is a mighty
tough proposition and | am giving
some weight away to him. ] am conf
dent that | can beat him, but the dis
lance is so short that | will have to
travel like Il race horse every minute
to do So hut you can assure my friends
in Augusta that J will do that and try
to win as quickly as possible"
With Lewis is johnny Mooney, his
manager. and Jack Diamond, his very
capable trainer and handler. The boys
are as confident as Lewis that he will
defeat Donovan. but each comedies
that Harry will have to so faster than
he ever did in his life. AS soon as they
are ready to so about town today Man
ager Hanks will take them in charge.
There will be abundant opportunity to
see Lewis work out, as he will finish
his training here.

Steamer Charles w. Chaplin of the

New London a slight collision with an
unknown schooner off Bartletts Reef

The bowsprit of the sailing craft
knocked off paint and shavings for a
distance of about Is feet on the side
of the steamer. The craft disappear
ed in the fog and its identity could
not be learned. 1t is believed that the
schooner received serious injury.
