Movement in Shares of
Southern Lines.

New York, Aug. 14.-Dealings in

confusing character. At no time was

mated Copper and the Fries probably
totaled as much a. 10000 shares.

steel trade centers pointing to un-
abated activity and demand for fin
ished products. and declaration OF
regular Canadian Pacific dividends

prominent. New York buying add to
the strength in the late trading and

CHAPTER XII.

Daylight was in the thick Of his
4pectacular and intensely bitter fight
With the Coastwise Steam Navigation
Company, and the Hawaiian, Mica

x3Ehip Company. He stirred up a big
S# / muss than he had anticipated,
even he was astounded at the
~ramifications of the struggle and
al lie unexpected and ineongruous in
S8terests that were drawn into It. Every
newspaper in San Francisco turned
upon him. 1t was true, n or two of
them had first intimated that they
were open to Substitution. but Day
lights Judgment was that the situa-
zion did not warrant such expenditure.
Up to this time the press had been
Rmusingly tolerant and good-naturedly
sensational about him, but now he was

complished and the deeds he had
done. From an Alaskan hero he was
metamorphosed into an Alaskan
bully, liar, desperate, and all-around
bad man." The whole affair sank to
the deeper deeps of rancor and savage
ness. The poor woman who had killed
herself was dragged out Of her grave
and paraded on thousands of reams
OF paper as a martyr and a victim to
Daylight's ferocious brutality.
He was like a big bear raiding a
