TRENTON, N. J.-When Chaplain Griffin, of the New Jersey state pris- on visited William Diamond, negro murderer, in his cell last night to pre- pare him for his execution, he found Diamond reading a comic paper and laughing at the jokes and pictures.
 What's the hurry?" asked the con demned man. Cant they wait until finish the paper?"
 Diamond finally was persuaded to drop the paper and prepare to pay the penalty for his crime. He was the least concerned of those who were present at the execution.

FIRE DESTROYS
 X SURRYHkE HOME
Believed Fire Was Of Ineendiary Or igin--Loss $1,5oo-vaiued Gel
 10 Destroyed.

Shortly after eight o'clock fast night fire was discovered in the cab in occupied 'by Jack Surryhne on Broadway near the grade and owing to the distance from the Fire Hall and the fact that the fire had secur- ed big start before being discovered, the entire cabin and contents were destroyed.
 The fire was discovered by Louis Rosenthal, who lives next door and. as the building was already a mass of flames in the interior. he could do nothing to put out the flames and therefore ran to the Fire Hall and turned in the alarm. The two fifty gallon chemical sleds, with a number of small chemicals, were taken to the building, but one would not work and although the other did splendid work, it was not large enough to con- trol the flames which had spread into the three rooms of the building.
 Jack Surryhne stated to repre- sentative of the Prospector that he could not account for the fire as he had left the cabin at 2 o'clock in the afternoon but had left no fire as he had dressed and gone to restau- rant for his breakfast. He sleeping late as he had played at the dance at Moose Hall the evening previous.
 He is inclined to believe that the fire was of incendiary origin as the cabin which stands on the outskirts of the city is an easy mark for any crook who desires to steal. Twice before has the cabin been entered and things stolen.
 The loss will be more than $1,50O as the building was worth $500 and Jack, Surryhne owned a violin worth $1OO and cello which he has had since boyhood and which was worth many hundreds of dollars and could not have been purchased for any amount Efforts were made to recov- CT the instrument from the blazing cabin but it could not be reached from the window and no one could enter the building Surryhne was down town at the time of the fire and when he responded to the alarm found it was his own cabin in flames. Several hundreds of dollars worth of sheet music was also lost in the blaze, besides all the personal effects of the occupant.
 The cabin was owned by Jack Bol- lard and was in the care of C. c. Reynolds.
 No effort was made by the fire de- partment to string out the fire hose and start the big pump to working as the hose at the Fire Hall would not have reached to the scene of the conflagration. Formerly the de partment owned enough hose to have reached the building but part of it has been placed in the small shed over the hydrant at Broadway and l Mckinley streets and none has been purchased to replace it in the Fire Hall.
 Chief Ethical and Assistant Chief 1 Suessdorf were on hand to direct the efforts of the fire department to con- trol the fire with the chemicals, but their efforts were unavailing.

NARROW MARKET
IN LOCAL STOCKS,
FRACTIONS HEAVY
Brokers Discuss Rate De-
cision, Which Is Regarded
as Specially Favorable to
New Haven Road.

The sole topic OF conversation on the
street and in local brokerage houses to-
day was, Of course, the rate decision.
Both brokers and their customers we're
at loss as to just how much the rail-
roads had been benefited.
After the full text OF the decision had
been thoroughly digested the concensus
OF opinion appeared TO be that II was
even more favorable than had been hoped
for. Although the anthracite roads are
not granted any Increase on that COM
modify this had been expected, whereas
the granting OF the full per cent. was
regarded as particularly favorable to the
New Haven, Pennsylvania. New York
Central and Erie roads. feature that
appealed to the financial community was
the statement that the commission would
go as far as IL legally could to AFFORD
relief, the inference being that while not
more than per cent. increase could be
allowed on any class OF freight because
no more had been asked, future appli-
cations for larger increases would re-
ceive favorable consideration.
Marketwise In this city the news was
followed by confused movement OF rela-
lively narrow proportions, Pennsylvania
and Reading, which had been ruling
rather heavy. rallied only to case OF
again. Lehlgh Valley hardened after an
eaTly ueClne, DuJ none OF tne railway
shares showed any activity. United states
Steel was briskly traded In and dis
played irregularity. Heavlness was the
rule In Rapid Transit, Philadelphia
Electric and Cambria Steel. On tho
other hand, United Gas Improvement
recovered a good part OF yesterdays
decline, and later Pennsylvania moved
up. Union Traction. in the afternoon,
declined more than Il point and Welsbach
sold at 35 for an odd lot, compared with
80, the last previous quotation made in
July.
In the late dealings all the local trac-
ton securities showed a downward tend
ency. Electric and Peoples Is went below
70 and Philadelphia Traction also sold at
that figure, loss OF a point from last
nights close.

LOCAL TRADE CONDITIONS
SHOW LITTLE IMPROVEMENT I

frightened Spots.


Trade conditions IN this city changed
little during the last week. IN some lines
there was slight bettermsnt. but il

business furnished an exception, II being
reported that the volume showed =

In their weekly review OF business COM
dltions In Philadelphia, r. q. Dun 4 Co
say:
Conditions in the local cotton trads
show 10 Improvement over last week
The business is dull and uninterested and
there Is but little demand. II being stated
that only about 80 or 20 per cent of ma
chinery in the local textile industry uslns
cotton yarns are in operation There ia
light demand for wool at present, which
is attributed to the fact that the Britlsb
Government has announced that Il would
permit the expectation To the United
States of Australian and inerino WOOL
provided satisfactory guarantees would be
given that the wool would not IN any
way be sent to hostile countries
The iron and steel market continues

ported TO have shown considerable
strength during the last week. Finished
material also Is reported to have shown
some Improvement, though buying con-
tinues to be chiefly IN small lots. Rail-
roads are purchasing but moderately and
orders for heavy material come out
slowly. New orders for str trral MAJ
terial have also been light Some bus
mess is reported under consideration for
export, but has not crystallized TO any
extent.
The electrical trade reports very sat

though prices are said to be close and
profits small.
The demand for lumber OF practically
all grades remains slack. according to
local houses consulted during the week.
Prices remain low and wholesale dealers
report collections slow. Some iri-
provement is noted in the bituminous coal
situation. according to local dealers. but
conditions are far from being normal.

trade continues in moderate volume. with
expectations OF larger sales in the near
future result OF colder weather
The leather market Is firm, but sales
are in moderate ar cunts. The glazed
kid market Is unsatisfactory. Sales are
small for domestic consumption and ex-
port business has been greatly affected
by European conditions.
There is noticeable increase In vol
