Special to The Herald.
LONG BEACH, Jan. 17.--After: two
years of varying financial success Marco
Vessella, leader of the Italian band, has
announced that on next Sunday night his
band will give its farewell concert.
Vessella had hopes of receiving from
the new city council a contract TO fur
nsh municipal band
When Mayor Windham announced he
was not in favor of such action and the
councllmen said it would prove too much
of an expense Vessella gave up in de-
spair.
The band leader is a talented young
musician who has directed orchestras and
bands in New York, Philadelphia and
other eastern cities. He has refused
number of handsome offers to go else
where during the last two years.
While there has been almost constant
w,rangling about or in the italian band
the loss of their music will be generally
regretted

tween 200 and $50 feet in length and will

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Features of the Days Dealings In All
The Leading Stocks.

New York. Dec. 3.-The constant fiuc-
'tuation of prices in today's stock market
made it puzzing to discern the prevail
inG tone Of the speculation. The pres
sure to sell was much less pronounced
than late yesterday. This fact formed
the basis for some efforts TO get prices
We're frustrated by the dying out of de-
mand as prices arose. The occasional de-
clin"s leN "lcped a sufficient demand to
check the tendency and rally prices. The
movement afforded y harvest for agile
traders Their profits We're, however,
less agile. The dealings were almost
wholly in the hands of professionals.

marked change in conditions governing

indicating the good appetite Of capital for
these investments. a 100000 participa-

THE HAYTlEN ELECTION
May Bring Renewed TroubIe-No
Cause for United States to Intervene.

Washington. Dec. "a statement in
a dispatch sent to the navy depart
ment today by Commander Shipley of
the cruiser Des Moines, that the Hay
ten revolutionists have been invited
to enter Port Au Prince. is taken to
mean that the people of the city are in
entire sympathy with General Simon
the head of the revolutionists. This
being the case, it is regarded that the
immediate trouble is over Whether
Gen. Simon will be content with the
continuance in office of General Lcgi-
time. until a new President is elected,
officials say is another question. To
him, they state, will be left the choice
of the President. There are said to be

half a dozen well-known persons in
Hayti who are eligible for the office
and would fill it very acceptably. The
contest may engender further trouble.
Under ordinary conditions, the cleo
tions for President would be held in
May.
The suggestion that the United
States government should intervene in
Hayti because of American business
interests affected by the revolution
there, does not call forth any respon-
sive sympathy at the state depart
ment. If business interests of Hayti
are to be ground for intervention, it Is
said that Germany would be the one
to restore order as German interests
there far outweigh all others. II nee
essary American bluejackets will be
landed to protect American interests
that are jeopardized or in case Ameri-
can citizens need protection.
