sLooP FLEETWING SINKS.
Floated Again With Cargo Of Fish
Almost Intact.

The sloop Fleetwing. which arrived
here Monday with a cargo Of barrelel
fish from a down river point for the local
dealers. had an adventurous time coming
here from her loading point.
On her way up the river the little craft
began leaking through her centerboard
we'll at such a rapid rate that her crew
were unable to keep her free with the
pumps. She filled and went to the bottom
in about thirty feet Of water. The acci-
dent occurred short distance from Ma
thias Point. When she sank she rolled
over on her side and was hidden complete
ly from sight.
Her master and the one man with him,
when they found they could not keep the
vessel afloat left her and came in small
boat to this city for assistance. The
power barge. Daniel X. Jackson. was Sc
cured to aid in floating the craft
This was done by using the cargo
derrick on the barge to set the vessel on
it's keel Then she was worked into shoal
water. where the Jackson, using her
steam syphon. could pump the water out
Of her The cargo of fish aboard the
vessel. being in watertight barrels. was
not damaged by its stay under water nor
did the vessel lose many of the barrels
she had on deck when she went to the
bottom.

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The two electric fans that from opposite
| sides OF the room occupied by the STOCK
exchange for it's daily meetings send
greeting toward each other in the form
| Of waves of air were somehow more
noticeable at today's meeting than has
been the case since they were Installed
which was early in the sea son. The whir
! OF the wheels was thought some time ago
| to be too much in competition with the
voice of the presiding officer as he called
over the list. No objection was heard to-
day about these useful agitators however.
and they went on performing their duty
to the evident satisfaction of the as
sembled brokers.
In fact, most anything went today, ana
when one of the brokers reached the con-
clusion that he would be more comfortable
in his shirt sleeves and took off his coat
there was no protest raised. 1t was evil
IDENTIFY not regarded as an act tending to
lower the dignity Of the organization.
Other brokers' as they came in followed
the lead Of the coatless one. and no less
than three Of the members sat unabashed
among their fellows in all the comfort that
Is experienced when that unreasonable
article Of mems attire-the COATS dis
pensed with
men had neither stocks nor bonds for
sale. At least. to express the situation
more exactly, they did not offer to either
BUY or sell. 1t is supposed there is no
falling of in the market supply of secur-
tiles and that therefore there are stocks
and bonds for sale as we'll as buyers for
such evidences of value. but it happens
there in no dealing because Of the current
prices.
When the upward movement sets in
again it may be expected there will be
quite a good deal Of activity. but just
OF those matters about which one can hear
a good many theories, but nothing that
Is very definite.
The death of former President Cleve-
land was alluded to in the course of the
meeting and in such a manner as to in
dicate that he held a high place in the
esteem OF his fellow men.
One Of the members OF the Bankers
Association. in speaking Of the meeting Of
that organization which was held last
evening. said it was one of the most in
teresting and agreeable Of the entire year.
He attributed this not to the high tenn
perature which prevailed. but to circum-
stances due to the weather. and that was
the members went during the evening in
their shirt sleeves. and in consequence. or
probably as he thought In consequence.
there was an absence of stiffness and
formality.
Everybody was apparently at ease. and
one result was that everybody enjoyed
themselves and the evening was a sue
cess. If there is any conclusion to be
ought to adopt shirt sleeves as the Co.'S
tune for such occa sions. or some form OF
dress that would have a similar influence
at all future meetings.

NEW YORK. June 24.-Today's slug
gisl dealings in the stock market caused
prices during the greater part OF the
business session to rule somewhat above
yesterdays closing levels. There was
nothing whatever of consequence in the
way OF novel developments in the situa-
tion at large or gossip OF interest to
account for the markets tendencies. Dur
ing the early part of the day rather
heavy tone prevailed and many Of the
active issues showed declines ranging
from fractional limits TO a full point
These losses were wholly OF in part COW

cases were converted into correspOndingly
extensive advances.

Chief Topics Of Discussion.
Politics and the prospective readjust-
ments of the rates of dividends on a num-
Der of stocks were the chief topics of dis
cussion during the day.
The money market gave little reflection
TO the approaching heavy corporation dis
bursements of July !. and the sterling ex-
change market was somewhat easier. 1t
seemed to be the common idea that the
export movement of gold has eliminated.
but such notions have been entertained
previously, only TO be upset by subsequent
Developments

dent Of the United States naturally ex-
cited great amount of sympathetic COM

Rock Island Less Active.
The general affairs OF Rock Island
system were again active theme Of
discussion but there were no authorit alive
announcements in that direction and pos
sibiy there will be none for another week.
The various securities identified with the
Rock Island system continued heavy, but
were much less active than of late.
chesapeake and Ohio and Ontario and
Western both reflected great deal Of
pressure around the opening of bust

the general market. Reading and Union
