Have you seen the new Lincoln
penny"
This question worked overtime on
the streets Of Richmond today. A
small supply OF the new pennies was
received this morning at the Second
National bank and there was quite
q run on the bank" for a time as ev-
erybody wanted one. Only few OF
this particular kind have been issued
owing to the fact that the designer
at Washington put his initials, v. ID.
B. in small letters near the lower
edge Of the coin. This is violation
OF the law and the initials will be TAX
en- off on all future issues.
Doesn't Fit Machines.
There 10 much complaint among the
slot machine men over the new penny
They aHege that it will not fit their
machines and are loud in their walls
over the matter. However it is only
q question OF time according to Mr..
Eggemeyer of the Second National
bank until this will be rectified and
everyone will be satisfied, as the large
edge Of the penny will soon wear off
and easily slip through the slots.
The new coin is of an unusually at
tractive, yet simple, design. It con-
ststs Of the head Of Abraham Lincoln
in profile. on one side. Directly over
his head Is the inscription I'm God We

New York, Aug. 6.-The importers
who raced against time and the pass
age of the new tariff bill and lost n
fortune thereby served notice on Col
lector Loeb today that they woul make
a fight.
The liner carrying a cargo which
would be assessed $4,000 higher un-
der the new tariff bill than the old
schedules, was within three miles of
New York when the custom house
closed at 4:3O o'clock yesterday after
noon pounding through heavy seas at
top speed and trying to nose in before
the fatal hour.
Owners Make Fight.
The Hamburg-American line, owners
Of the Pennsylvania, will make q fight
on a technicality but Mr.. Loeb today
declared that the manifesto Of the cap
tain should have been delivered at
the custom house before the closing
hour.
Yesterday afternoon saw the most
eventful time the new custom house
ever had with a long line of customers
waiting to pay duties under the old
schedules, but what happened yes
terday was not a marker to the lively
times today.
Mr. Loeb discovered that the old
strenuous days when he defended
Bwano Tumbo from the newspaper
correspondents and impetuous cowboy
friends were tranquil compared to
what the importers had to offer.

NEW YORK STOCKS.

New York, Nov. 16.-The confusion In the movement in prices in today stock market was dtIe principally to the effects of yesterdays excitement over the reported copper consolida- ton. The positiveness of yesterdays assertions on that subject forced some recognition on the part of those con cerned in the negotiations and led to more candid admissions of the actual status of the affair.
 From these it appeared that the definite accomplishment of the plans in view is not to be looked for until a considerable time has elapsed perhaps many months. That actual consultations are expected was ad- mitted. although important exceptions amongst tie important copper produc- CTS were mentioned This uncertain state of the project hrew some hesita- tion into the speculative movements based on it.
 The matter had not lost it's force entirely, however, and was still an in- auence in the market for the metal prices there advancing there again and there was an increased demand from those consuming interests which feared the effects of the growing friendliness manifested amongst the producing interests.
