ton. which Is coming year by year to
take on more and more the character
OF beautiful creation in architecture
and sculpture and landscape garden
Ing that is the property of the whole
people. The statues to the victors In
the struggle between the north and
south occupy conspicuous positions in
the most advantageously located of
the parks and circles with which the
seat Of government abounds-verdure-
clad breathing spaces which seem as
though they might have been special
ly provided as sites for just such he
roic or life-size figures. Some of the
statues are under the shadow of the
capitol, others cluster about the White
House, and yet others are placed
where they will kindle inspiration in
the patriotic pilgrim to the capital
Much of the impressiveness of the
statues to the military heroes of the
Federal armies Is doubtless due to the
fact that almost all of them are euues-
trian. 1t Is customary In all countries
to portray as men on horseback"
only the so-called royal personages, or
men who were actual commanders of
troops, or enjoyed the title of COM
mander. The first equestrian statue
ever erected in the Western Hem
1sphere, was the one of George III of
England, which stood in Bowling
Green at tho foot of Broadway, New
York city, and which during the war
for independence was melted up and
cast into bullets by patriotic daugh-
ters Of Miss Columbia. -..
The oldest equestrian monument
now standing in the New World is a
colossal statue of Charles w. of Spain,
in the City of Mexico. The initial
equestrian statue In the United States
is the renowned one of Gen. Andrew
Jackson, which stands in the park di.
rectly in front of the White House at
Washington 1t Is estimated that there
are 400 equestrian statues in the
world. of which number the city on
the Potomac will have. with the com.
pletion of the Grant memorial, total

Civil war heroes.
The first statue arranged for in
honor of q warrior identified with
the Civil war was that In which Gen.
Winfield Scott is depicted mounted on
a charger at rest. This monument
was ordered in 1857. and was erected
seven years later. General Scott Is
In the uniform Of lieutenant general.
The material for the figures OF horse
and rider was derived from cannon
captured during the Mexican war in
which General Scott won his greatest
1ame. The pedestal for this statue is
nade up of fve huge pieces of granite

Most of the suburbs around New York owe their
very existence to the railroads. They settled
because they lay on tha lines of important rail-
roads promising quick service to New York, and
the growth that has come to them has been fos-
tered and caused by the railroad.
Places that would never have been able TO at

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

It Is expected at the meeting held this
afternoon by the directors OF the Fire
mems Fire Insurance Company the va
cancy caused by the death Of the presi-
dent of the company, E. G. Davis. will
be filled. 1t is believed the choice will
fall upon Allan E. Walker, who has been
connected with the management of the
company for some time past and is the
largest individual stockholder.
Some of the bonds of the Potomac
Electric Power Company OF the class
known as the consolidated were sold to-
day at the meeting of the stock exchange
at 1O1 and 1OO7. While quite block
was taken at those figures yet the sup
ply was by no means exhausted, but
continued to be as abundant as has been
the case for some weeks past, since the
heavy dealing in them set in. During
this time there has been scaling down
in the price from about 1O2, the level at
the beginning Of the year.
Transactions took place in the common
stock Of the Washington Railway and
Electric Company. Quotation lots of twen-
ty-five shares sold for 3S& and 3SA. For
some time past this security has been
neglected, sharing in this particular the
experience Of most of the list. The further
buying power was not tested by contin-
uing the offering of the stock at the SELL
ing level, nor. on the other hand, did the
bid continue on the same range. but fell
to 81, while the asking price advanced
to 80.
1t is supposed the second semi-annual
dividend on this stock will be declared
June l. the next dividend period, although
there has been no official or other an
nouncement to that effect.
Two shares of the stock of the Norfolk
and Washington Steamboat Company sold
for 234H, but there was no further effort
to trade. The usual figures at the close
were go bid and 295 asked.

NEW YORK. April 5.-Probably be-
cause of the brief indication furnished
around noontme yesterday of a scanty
supply of stocks in the market, the pro-
fessional traders who have been doing
all of the business lately, such as there
has been of it. turned their attention to
the long side of prices this morning and
the stock market enjoyed a general ad-
vance during the early part of the day.
averaging perhaps half point all
around.
The opening was fairly animated but
in the subsequent dealings trading slack
ened, and although until well into the
afternoon the market held pretty firmly,
the transactions were in light volume.
The day as a whole served, perhaps, to
emphasize again the absolute indifference
at the moment which the larger interests
manifest toward stocks and the complete
apathy of the outside public If it were
not for the relatively small body of rest

the stock market could hardly go on. 1t
represents now a complete deadlock be-
tween the major forces that make the
market really worth while.
Days News Bearish.
Oddly enough. the days news was
OF kind calculated to make professionals
bearish rather than otherwise 1t is
true that both wheat and cotton
sold off probably account Of the
improved weather conditions and that

ably affected by the further takings of
gold for export. The engagements an
nounced before midday amounted to
$4.U00.0 900 and strengthened the opinions
of bankers that the movement would
assume larger proportions before for
eign or at least London demand for
gold was satisfied.
The suspension Of the Union Bank of
Brooklyn was not a financial calamity
of much consequence, and indeed the
statements issued indicated that deposit
ors would lose nothing, but the event was
a reminder of conditions not so far back
in the past and was not a cheerful item
Of marketwise information.
Copper Off in Boston.
Furthermore. the Boston copper market
went to pieces again today with violent
declines in Calumet and Hecla, Indiana
and Lake copper among others. 1t was
liquidation by New England interests pre-
sumably involved in copper speculation
which recently turned the stock market
down from the march recovery.
Call money ruled at 2Aa23s per cent
during the period of such active DUIl :"
ing as there was. Time money was
easier in tone. II not in rates. The banks
made a further slight increase in their
nominal cash gain from the subtreasury
since last Friday. Foreign exchange was
dull and steady at a modest decline from
yesterdays levels.
