INDIAN HAS NEGRO ARRESTED ON CHARGE or GRABBING

/. On the charge that he had frisked Edwin Gibson, an Indian, for $2.50 in a saloon, Thursday night, John Raglan, a negro, was up before Judge Hinson Thomas yesterday, for petty larceny.
 According to the Ind an s side of the story, he entered the saloon and was asked to take part in game of coon. can. He claims to have placed $2.5O on the table and before he regained pos session of the money i, had mysterious. ly disappeared.
 Raglan had half dozen witnesses who testified that they did not sec him take the money. They claimed that only $2 was missing.

prived of its right to mine asphalt and
 to build a railroad; that of the Orinoco corporation, which claims large conces- sions covering iron mines, asphalt priv
 ileges and hardoowd concessions; and
 the case of the Orinoco Steamship com.
 pany, which claims exclusive rights of
 navigation on branches of the Oriaoco
 rover. In the two latter cases the court is to decide primarily whether the judgments of previous arbitrations or decisions of umpircs were correct and are to stand and if not, then they are to be heard on their merits. Three ar bitrators are to be appointed and as in the case of the fisheries dispute more than year will clapse before decision is rendered. On the part of the United States the preparation of the cases will
 not be formidable proposition, as there is already mass of data bearing on them available which formed the basis of the arguments made to Presi- dent Castro in behalf of arbitration. Although complicated to some extent, after all, questions of fact largely pro- dominate, unlike the controversy over the Newfoundland fisheries where spe- cific interpretation of an existing treaty will form the burden of the work of the court.
 After Castro declined to arbitrate the disputes either separately or collect lively the state department passed the whole question up to congress but no instructions were given for the guid- anee of the department to proceed to force settlement. There appeared to be no general public interest manifested in the controversy warranting any dras- tic action and the matter was allowed to lapse. Finally the question was hap oily solved when President Gomez ex- pressed a desire to resume friendly re- latons which had been broken off by each country withdrawing it's diplc- matic representative from the other, and Mir. Buchanan was sent to Venezue- Ia to reopen negotiations for settle ment of the claims.
 Controversies passed on by The Hague including those already referred to embrace the following: The matter of perpetual leases, resulting from a between Japan on the one hand and Germany, France and Great Britain on the other, touching the real and scope of certain provisions of treaties and agreements between them; the right of certain Muscat dhows to fly the French flag; and the inquiry instituted by operation of the court between Great Britain and Russia growing out of the North Sea Dogger Bank incident when the firing of the guns of the Russian fleet caused the loss of 8 boat and the death of two per sons belonging to British fishing fleet.

FRIENDSHIP.
Dy DUNCAN M. SMITH

Oh. friendship is a fragile plant That should with care be tended. For oftentimes the closest one
 Is easily offended. And by . very careless turn
 It's tender buds are blighted When 1t is farthest from your thoughts To have an old pal slightcdI Iris not enough to say "Hello!" And hurry to your labor Without !nquiring as to health On meeting some old neighbor. You have to stand around and chat. Though minutes may be priceless. 'Twould never do to pass him up And go away adviceiess. A friend who really is a friend Is worth your best endeavor And your most earnest ways and means To freeze to him forever. And. though you may find need for
 him
 Not one time out of twenty, It's when you do. the proverb says. You need him good and plenty. And, after all, the only thing
 To give life zest and meaning Is friendship and remembrance bright. Though seas are intervening. To smooth the little jars that come And make time sweet and sunny. So do not slight the friends you have Or slip to them bad money.

bury building, Los Angeles.
CHICAGO, Feb. 19.--Wheat had its strongest
and highest closing since the beginning of
the present bull campaign. There enough
selling pressure to force the May price back
to $1.l33 shade under the first hour. The
selling encouraged to some extent by the
enormous Argentine shipments of 6912, 600
bushels for the week The sellers of the morn
ing very quick to scent danger, and
turned buyers. There was a sharp upturn of
112c at Kansas City for May. For the pres
ent it appears to be only az question of how
much reaction to wait for before taking hold
of the buying side.
There was a conservative feeling in the corn
trade for the day. Advice of yesterday to
secure profits May at 66c and above
timely, and there was a lot of this kind
Of selling going for the day. Estimated
receipts for tomorrow are 356 cars. Weather
map is still soft and roads especially bad in
this state, most of the corn moving is coming
from west of the river. First week of good
weather will be sign for general selling of
these corn futures.
Prices in the end were scarcely changed from
close Of yesterday, although higher prices
were made during the morning and lower quo
tations during the session. There was gem
eral profit-taking early because of yesterday 5
strong upturn. There is a confident tone to

NEW YORK STOCK
AND BOND MARKET

NEW YORK. Feb. 1s.-The latest develop
ments in the iron and steel trade have re-
suited in great confusion of opinion over what
consequences are to follow. This was re-
sponsibe for the halt in speculative activity
in the stock market late today, rather than
any conviction that the market had adjusted
itself to the new conditions in the sharp fall
in prices. The belief is common that large
waiting requirement exists in the steel trade
which will come out with signs of revival of
industry.
The statement was current that the leading
steel makers had canvassed the railroads of
the country thoroughly with view to ascer-
tanning what volume Of orders for steel rails
would be brought out by cut from S2S to
S25 per ton The result was reported to show
failure to bring out the amount of orders
deemed necessary to justify the action.
In this case the great deterrent to present
action in placing orders is said to be the un-
certainties of the tariff changes, and the like
lihood that new adjustment Of prices must
be made anyhow when the new duties are
fixed. The realization that the same difficulty
must apply in greater less degree to the
market for all steel products complexities the
whole problem
That the recently maintained level of value
of the steel industrials an artificial one
in view of the state of trade, the opinion
expressed with sufficient explicitness by the
price movement which has followed the knowl-
edge of the new move by the leading authori-
ties in the steel trade. The liquidation Of
United States Steel continued today on a very
large scale, both for home and for foreign
account
The whole market was affected, but in vary
ing degrees. The copper industries showed
more sympathy with U. S. Steel yesterday
than today. This was partly accounted for by
reports of another drastic reduction in the
price at which leading producers were offer
ing refined copper.
On the other hand, there were points of re-
sistance in the railroad list. The Southern
Pacific bond issue, although expected in an
indefinite way, came a surprise in many
Of its details. The $50, COO, 600 to be offered
proved larger than generally loked for.
the decision to offer the issue to stOckhold-
ers at a price designed to form a privilege
seemed to be taken in it's favor, and the fact
that the portion thus to be allotted to the
Union Pacific interest in its capacity of stock
holder would meet the sum to be paid to that
company in its capacity creditor for ad-
vances to its subsidiary, promised to facili-
tate the financing of the new bonds and lessen
the strain the money market
The two Hartman stocks were inclined to
f1rnness after the bond issue was announced.
The money market not materially affected
by the estimates of the weeks currency move
ment. which indicated unimportant net
changes. The foreign selling of stocks in this
market helped a sharp upward movement in
foreign rates. Revival of uneasiness over the
Balkans position was a factor in the depres-
sion abroad
Bonds were irregular. Total sales, par value,
$4.716,O00
United States bonds were unchanged on call.
