Railroad Stock EcIPses All of Its
 Previous High Records.

New York, May 14.-Trading on the stock exchange today was devoted largely to the specialties and other minor issues, to the neglect or the more standard shares. To be sure, the coalers, that is to say, Lehigh Valley and Reading, contributed the usual de- gree of activity, with some early strength, while United States Steel once more took it's old place as leader, transactions in that stock far exceed ing those in any other issue, at a ma teriaI net gain. In fact, Steel mani fested more underlying strength than at any time since the publication of it's very unfavorable quarterly statement fortnight back.
 Other movements of note included Canadian Pacific, which rose to 26S 3-4, thereby ecipsing all previous high records. International Harvester, which advanced almost five points from its early low on rumors Of an approaching settlement of its dissolu- tion suit and Sears Roebuck, which touched it's best quotation for the year on relatively large transactions. There were also American Sugar, which held firm despite the failure of the directors to increase the dividend, National Bis cult. United States Rubber. Union Bag and Paper, International Paper com mon and preferred, American Car and Foundry, Pressed Steel Car, Republic Iron and Steel preferred and numerous other stocks which rarely experience any considerable public demand Amer ican Can issues, contrary to their re- cent course, were under some selling | pressure, and the copper stocks failed 1 to benefit to marked extent by the 1 greater firmness in the metal market In the railway group two of Cana l dian Pacific's allies-A1inneapo St. Paul and Saulte Ste Marie and Wis consin Central-were active at better prices, with gains of point or there aboutS i'll New York Central, Union !

JOHNNY KILBANE OUTFOUCHT BURNS
Featherweght Champion Had Best of Jersey City Lad in All
 But Two Roundabout Fast and Interesting -Kilbane Unmarked at End of Battle.

New York, May 14.-Johnny Kilbane of Cleveland, the featherweight champion, outfought Frankie Burns of Jersey City in a fast ten round bout at the St Nicholas A. c. here tonight.
 At the ringside in fighting tegs Kill bane weighed 122is and Burns 122 pounds. Burns had the better of the first and fifth rounds. Otherwise it was all Kilbane. For the greater part of the battle Burns used only his left arm while Kilbane used both hands to body and head with telling effect. The champions footwork enabled him to evade several we'll aimed blows and by sidestepping and ducking Kilbane made Burns miss repeatedly.
 In the third round Kilbane landed left to the face and a hard right up- percut which drew the blood from Burns mount. Burns kept putting lefts to tn estomach but the blows did not seem to effect Kilbane.
 In the sixth Burns put hard straight left to the wind and Kilbane came back with left and right upper cuts to the face and with right and left to the body and on general lead ing had this round. From this stage to the end of the bout Kilbane was the master.
 When they retired to their corners after the bell Kilbane did not show a mark while Burns was badly cut up about the face.

SOCIALIST PARTY PLATFORM.
What They Stand For in the Munici
 pal and School Campaign.

The following is the platform drawn up by the socialists in the city cam psign and for the school committees: 1. The socialist party is the only par ty that stands at all times consistently and without compromise for true democracy: that is, government of the people by the people and for the peo- pie.
 2. The socialist party is organized to fight the battles Of the working class on the political field.
 g. A vote for the candidates of the socialist party is the most practical and effective way of helping human progress.
 1. All public works should be done directly by the city under the super vision of practical men, and on all work done by the city preference should be given to citizens and resi- dents as far as practical.
 5. The city should work with the end Invfew of acquiring and operating all industries that require franchise for their operation, such as street railways and telephones.
 s. The city should own and operate a public wood and coal yard and ice plant, public milk supply and a pulp lio market place, so that the necesSaTies of life can be supplied to the peopTo h clean, wholesome state and at th5 lowest possible cost.
 z. The city should work with the enl in view of the ultimate consolidation of town and city. so that water, lights and sewers can be extended to the linn it's of the town, and thus abolish a great many sources of disease.
 8. We advocate the abolition of the system by which the prosecuting at torney is paid a fee on every convic- tion (which places a premium on con viction) and the placing of this official at a stated salary.
 g. We advocate the establishment of public lavatOries for men and women in suitable locations.
 TO- A strict enforcement of all sani- tary laws.
 il. A compulsory cleaning up of all hack streets and alleys and vacant lots. and the abolition of all dumps in residential districts.
 12. X strict inspection of all the san itary conditions in all factories and workshops.
 Education.
 We pledge our candidates for the town school committee to work along the following lines, if elected:
 1, A uniform system of education and unifom textbooks in all the schools e9 the town.
 q A graduated system of salaries with equal pay for the same grades in @I schools.
 8. The abolition of small schools where practical and free transporta- ton of children when they live more than a mile from school
 4. The securing of legislative power to take over the Norwich Free Acad- emy and the bringing of the same un- der the control of the town echoo committee.
 Health of CEildrer,
 The physical cSndition of the chil. dren is as much the concern of th' town as fS their education.
 AS good teeth are essena1el to goot health, we advocate the establishment of free dental clinics for fhe regulal inspection and repair Of the children teeth. mad the regular nedicst inspee. ton of all school children,
 We advocate free school books ant supplies for the children of fbe town.
