Great satisfaction is expressed over
the choice Of w. Henry Baker as con-

certs given by the Richmond Phlhar-

rise OF this organization from a small

a large extent due TO the work of Mr.

sweiied the number TO fifty-fve The
class OF music played by the orches-
ira has been raised, until to-day the
programs represent the very best in
classical and popular compositions.
Few cities OF the size Of Richmond
can boast OF fine an amateur or

steal taste OF this city that this prog
ress has been made without financial

STEEL STOCK UP.
BulliSh Enthusiasm Sends
Stock Market Soaring.
Betterment of Trade Conditions
Is Given as Cause.

New York, April 10.-Bullish en-
thusiasm attained new heights in the
stock market this week, to the ac-
compartment of the greatest activity
in over a year. Prices showed gains
over last Saturday of five to ten points
in some of the leading issues and
vastly more in a number of specialtieS.
Apart from the rise in Bethlehem
Steel on Thursday to III and it's sub
sequent decline of II points, followed
by further erratic movements, the
feature of the week was Fridays
movement in United States Steel,
which advanced Z II points to 81 on
the largest volume of trading record
ed in that particular issue since the
days of it's introduction to the stock
market. Other leading shares, such
as Union Pacific Reading and Anal
gamated, together with two score less
prominent issues Joined in the move
ment, which assumed gigantic proper
tiOnS as the session came to an end.
The financial district was at a loss
to account for this fresh accession of
public interest, even though largely
speculative, on any ground other than
that of actual betterment in all
branches of the country's trade. This
feeling was borne out by the state
nents issued by the treasury depart
ment at Washington. RumorS of APP
preaching peace negotiations were
again current, although lacking con-
hrmation in high quarters.

BUSSEY IS GUILTY.
Jury Decides Youth Shot Foy With
Intent to Kill.

Ray Bussey, the youth who shot
James Foy through the neck. in a
fight at the Wolfe place on lower
Quincy street last January was found
guilty of assault with intent to kill
by the jury which heard the evidence
in the case Friday. Bussey had
claimed self defense, alleging that Foy
carried a hammer which he had used
on him, inflicting a bruise on the
head, before he fired.
Foy will go through life with par
alysis of one side of his face as the
result of the injury, the bullet having
severed nerves in the neck. The evil
dence at the trial showed that Foy
and Bussey were visitors at the place
where several women lived or stayed.
the main object of their attentions be-
ing Eva McGrew, who testified that
she had been married and was not di-
vorced. Yesterday, after appearing on
the witness stand in the Bussey case
in Judge A. w. Dana's court, Mrs. Nc
Grew proceeded to Judge George H.
Whitcomb's court to appear in her
own suit for divorce Her petition
was refused for her failure to estab-
lish residence here.
The women in the case have been
living cut of town under threat of
prosecution if they return and left
again after the Bussey trial.

ANOTHER SUIT ON.
Katy Files Corporation Tax Com
plant Against j. Il. Botkin.

A third suit against j. T. Botkin,
secretary of state, to recover the
amount of the corporation tax paid
by a Kansas railroad under protest,
was filed in the Shawnee county dis
trict court by the Missouri, Kansas &
Texas railway this morning. The
road has paid $4,000 under protest as
its share of the Kansas corporation
tax for this year.
The present action, like others al
ready brought by roads operating in
this state, denies the constitutional
right of the state to enforce a tax
on the capital stock of a railroad
which is also taxed on its physical
property. and it is the intention of the
railroad companies to carry the pres
ent series of actions to the highest
federal courts in an effort to knock
out the Kansas law.
