Pelletier could not be moved.
So, realizing that if they permit

they made public his confession.

Commends Captain
And Crew of Apache

In a letter received by Secretary Mac
Veagh, of the Treasury Department, to-
day, Gov. Phillips Lee Goldsborough, of
Maryland, commends the work of Capt.
G. C. Carmine and the crew of the reve-
nue. cutter Apache. The governor says
in his letter: e..
II desire to make known to you the
splendid service being rendered by
Capt. G. c. Carmine, commander of the
United States revenue cutter Apache,
and the officers and men attached to
that ship in relieving boats and boat
men in distress. during the present ice
blockade in Chesapeake bay and its
tributaries.
II desire to take this opportunity to
express my thanks for the most valu-
able assistance to many of Maryland s
best citizens"
A copy of this letter will be sent by
the Treasury Department to Captain
Carmine and his men.
Secretary MacVeagh also commends
the service in his letter of reply to Gov
ernor Goldsborough. He says:
'"rhe department views with satisfac-
ton the results that are being accomp-
lished by the Revenue Cutter Service
along the thousands of miles of sea-
coast and 1t us gratifying to receive ex-
pressions of appreciation from so high a

average main confictcd with the inter

regularly lined up on the side of big
business ami party politics.
On account of his character and his
great record of useful public service,
Senator La Toilette was chosen to be
the candidate. He accepted reluctantly,
only under pressure from progressive
friends, and at a great personal sac
rifice, solely to serve the cause for
which he has fought for years.
Senator La Follette's withdrawal

1T seems entirely plain to me that

MARKET HAS RAPID RISE AFTER

OPENING SALES.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.--whlle the mar
ket opened dull and almost lifeless It
did not long remain so. Traders APP
peared to have read and digested over
night the old German proverb that "a
man cannot blow and swallow at the
same time" and concluded to blow.
Anyhow, good buying orders appeared
soon after the opening. and. led by
Reading and Union Pacific, the market
rose from one to two points in the first
hour. The rapid rise was followed by
a slight setback of less than a point
in the leading stocks, and then the
forward movement started afresh so
that at noon prices were at the highest
and sales going at very rapid pace.
Reading started, at 1854, and, in the
morning bulge, sold up to 1850. Union
Pacific opened at 1924 and rose to 1854.
Steel began at 6O9s and sold up to 81 u .
And so the story goes through the list.
Street railways were active and the
prices higher. The market seems to have
shaken out the small shorts, and is re-
covering the losses of last week.

II was the standard Oil Company OF
Indiana which once was fined $29, 240,-

fine being overturned on the ground
that 1t was excessive and confis-

Shortly after the reorganization of
the Oil trust, a few stockholders in
the Standard of Indiana let go their
holdings at 81 400 a share. Since then
the stock has been rising steadily
and has sold as high as 400 a share.
Trading has been inflnitesimal.
1t is rumored in fiancial circles that
the great "melon cutting" of the
Standard of Indiana Is only the be-
ginning of a number of capital stock
increases in subsidiary companies of
the Standard, which present capital
ization represents only small per-
ccntage of their actual assets.
