TRAVIS WON BY ONE His Match With Seeley Was Very Closely Contested. THE SCORE WAS 44 TO 45 STROKES High Wind Favored Them Going Out, Retarded on Return. ;IG CROWD PRESENT NEW YORK. October 19.-Walt,-r J. Tra- 2 of the Garden City Club. the national elf champion, and Charles H. Seeley of Weeburn, the Connecticut state champion, began the final round of thirty-six h.Aes matt'h pl:.y for the Westbrook cup on the Westbrook Golf Club links today. A gre:at deal of Interest is centered on this n.artcf, as these two have not met since Seeley beat Travis in the semi-final round of the Metro- politan championship last spring. £he play today was divided into two rounds of 'ighteen holes each, and in addition there was a ',-hole medal play handicap, which attracted a large and representative field of metropolitan golfers. The weather con- ditions were simplyperfect, and the fair green and putting greens could not have been in better condition. Wind In Their Favor. When Travis and Seeley started out for their first round of the links there was a gale of wind back of them which made their drives and brassey shots go much further than either expected. Travis sliced into the rough grass, but made a good re- covery. Seeley drove straight, but over- ran the green with his second. Travis made up his disadvantage at this point, anti the hole was halved in fives. Driving for the second hole, Seeley's ball hit the telegraph wires and he played again without penalty. Both were on *he green in two, with Seeley having the bet- ter position. Travis overran his put and Seeley won the hole in 4 to 5. Going to the third hole Seetev lost his advantage by slicing his drive into the woods. and Travis playing steadily squared the score in 4 to 6. The next was halved in fours. but Travis laced a stymie for his opponent on the fifth hole and won it in 4 to 5. Facing the Wind Home. The players then had to face the wind and their drives were a bit short. Seeley played the better ball and with a beautiful approach shot had his ball dead for the hole and won it In 4 to 5. Travis reached the seventh green in two, making a splendid drive and a long brassey shot. Seeley got into the roadway on his drive and this handicapped him. Travis won the hole in 4 to 6. Travis got into difficulties in his approach for the eighth hole and Seeley was equal to the occasion, squaring the match once more by holing out in 4 to 7. Travis got out on the ninth green In three. Seeley took four. Travis ran down a twenty-foot put and won the hole in 4 to #;. which was a very brilliant play. as the distance was 4*' yards. Following are the cards for the first nine holes: Travis.............. 5 5 444 5 4 7 4-42 Seeley.............. . 4 6 4 5 4 4; 4 6-44 Travis finished the first eighteen holes with a lead of 1 up. On the second round of nine holes Travis and Seeley p.1yed so closely that it was anyi-dy's match up to the eighteenth hole. which Travis w'n in C. to 7.- This made him one up. and Seeley contested every inch of ground that was traversed, and played so well that Travis had to do all he knew in order to keep his end up.

Finaj Match for The Evening Star 0 Golf Trophy. The final match for The Evening Star cup between the Chevy Chase and Co- !l:mbla Clubs was started today at 2 -ek. on the links of the former c'ub. The weather was not so pleasant as on Wedr.sday. when the two teams met on th- Columbia links. a stiff wind from the southwest making the drives of the di'ffer- ent players uncertain. As this match is the final one of the season for the cup more than the usual in- t-rest was taken in the contest and the spectators began gathering at the beauti- ful 'hevy Chase Club house as early as the no, n'. hour. The players on the two teams were eager for the fray, and were out early taking a littl- exerci.e in th.. way of making drives or else getting their drive in first-class con- dition with putting on the green. After the c'nt.-st opened several parties of ladles drove up to the club house In handsome turnouts, and becaime interested spectators for the rest of the afternoon. The Chevy Chase course is in the best condition, the gra'.s being at the velvety stage, while the surrounding trees presented a kaleidoscope of color. The captains of both teams. Mr. F. 0. Iiorstman and L. L. Harban, were early arrivals at the club house, and for some time were busily engaged In lining up their men so) as to get the best results. Mr. Hlorstman made but one change in the Ch.' y Chase team from that of last Wed- nesday, substituting R. Jenkins for Arthur lBrice The latter is classed as one of the most skillful golfers of the C'hevy Chase club, but hi5 game has gone all to pieces of late and he requested to be let out of today's match. Dr. Hiarhan had also but one change to maKe in his team from that of Wednesday. Dr. Hi. T. Harding replacing John Joy Ed.son, .Jr. Mr. Edson's strong game. iike that of Mr. Brice, has also gone to the howwous, and he gracefully retired, a.. he believ.)d that the Columbia team w-d he ib. strength-ned by the addition of lDr Hasring.

Dr. Comp~ton got off well with a splendid <irive, but on the approach almost foozied the ball. His putting was skillful, and he won o.ut on rive strokes. M. Thompson and J. C. Davidson. paIr N... 5. got off well with long drives, and on a elever put the former holed the bali in 4. bogey figures. Dr. Jenkins and H1. WV. Reed also started well, their drives being of the winning sort. The team captains, Mr. Horstman and Dr. Hiarban, were fourth away, and, as usual, their work was watched with interest. The Chevy Chase player made a phe- rnomenal drive of the little white bail, go- intg almost into the bunkers, while the ef- forts of the Columbia leader were good enough to land him within striking dis- tan.'e of the ho;le. 11oth approached well, but Mr. Horstman's put was a flttle long and the doctor's a little short. The hole was halved in four strokes, bogey figures ornce agamin. Froan Naphtha to Gas. The District Commissioners have decided to' change from naphtha to gas the foliow- ing gtreet lamps: One on 12th street be-' tween Duncan place and E street north- east; two on corners of 12th and E streets northeast; three on 12tih street between E street and Maryland avenue northeast, and two on F street between 12th and 13th streets northeast.

Committee to lie Named Tomorrow to Take Matter in Charge-Spectal Servlces. Responding to a sentiment among the per- sonal friends of Dr. Sunderland, who be- lieve that a more lasting memorial should be provided than a mere service, a move- mtnt Is on foot to change the name of the First Presbyterian Church to the Sunder- land Memorial Church, making It as a precedent to such change that the debt of $1N.0(X now due by the congregation shall be paid in full. Substantial pledges to this end have already been received, -and it is believed the movement will be taken up with enthusiasm by his frinds, not only in the District of Columbia, but all over the ecuntry. It is believed that no more fitting way of perpetuating the memory of his life could be adopted than is the movement now be- Ing advocated, because during his last years the debt was believed by him to be a hindrance upon the church's efficiency in doing the work called for, which, because of its history and prestige, It should be able to do. A committee will be .named after the memorial service tomorrow to take charge of the undertaking. Memorial Tribute. At 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon services will ge held commemorating the memory of Dr. Sunderland, who died at Catskill, N. Y.. June 30. 1901. Dr. Sunderland was pastor of the First Presbyterian Church for nearly fifty years, andi was one of the most promi- nent clergymen In the city during that time.

BONA-FIDE CIRCULATION, A reference to the statement be- low will show that the circulation sworn to is a bona-fide one. It is easily possible for a news- paper with an elastic conscience to swell its I gitimate circulation enor- mously, in order to deceive adver- tisers, by sending out thousands bf papers to newsstands which are re- turnable, and which are, in fact, re- turned, but nevertheless are In- cluded in what purports to be an honest statement of circulation. Intelligent advertisers, however, judge by results, and bogus circula- tions don't give them. The family circulation of The Star Is many thousands in excess of any other Washington paper.

TRALLES, HALL- GANE- IN POLITICS CANDIDATE FOR SEAT IN TEE MANK PARLIAMENT. His Self-Coustrueted Platform Savors Strongly of Socialisnm and Alarms His Supporters. LONDON. October 19.-Hall Caine has consented to become a candidate for the Manx parliament in behalf of the town of Ramsay. His opponent is a local lawyer. Mr. Caine's address has created consterna- tion even among-his own supporters, fQr- he advocates sweeping changes that might well be planks in a national platform of some great reform party. First of all, Mr. Caine wants to nationalize the steamship service connecting the Ise of Man with England, running it without profit. Then he applies himself to the Manx steam and street railroads and would furnish the same radical -system to- them. Land must be treated in a somewhat similar manner, the Manx paj-liament controlling the drain- age, cultivation and tree planting. The banks, of course, are included in this na- tionalization scheme, by which Mr. Caine believed that such financial scandals as occurred in the Isle of Man last year would be avoided. Mr. Caine justifies these apparently un- profitable national undertakings by point- ing out that the primary factor in Manx prosperity is the island's popularity as a holiday resort, and that it must prosper or decline as it meets the needs of the vis- itors. With a parting reference to the necessity of a reform of the system of representa- tion and ridding the legal system of its anachronistic superfluities, the 1author com- mits himself and his program into the hands of the intelligent citizens of Ramsay. DISALLOWED THE CLAIM. Gen. Harries Denied Two Months' Ex- tra Pay for Service in 1898. General Geo. H. Harries having taken an appeal from the decision of the auditor for the War Department, disallowing him two months' extra pay as colonel of the 1st Dis- trict of Columbia Infantry during the Span- ish war, the controller of the treasury has held that General Harries is not entitled to the extra pay and affirms the decision of the auditor. The auditor disallowed the claim because the records show that Col. Harries was on waiting orders from Sep- tember 12 to November 10, 1898, and that there is no record showing that he was present for duty during that period except for one day. The controller says that the records are conflicting as to whether or not General Harries was on waiting orders during the entire period of the regimental furlough. The controller refers to the general orders of the War Department, directing that leaves of absence for sixty days and fur- lotughs for the same period be granted offi- cers and men who served beyond the limits of the United States, and says that this order was subsequently amended so as to place the officers on waiting orders instead of granting them leaves of absence. The controller said that the commander of a regiment could place himself in a duty status by merely doing work of a military character, but "it does not appear that Colonel Harries took any action to place himself on duty. He contends, however, that his orders recalling certain officers of his regiment to duty after having placed them on waiting orders have been recog- nized by this office as valid and binding upon those officers." The controller concludes as follows: "It is possible for a commanding officer to exercise some supervision over the af- fairs of his regiment during a furlough pe- riod without interfering with his civil pur- suits, and in that case the exercise of such supervision would not seem to place him in a duty status. The authority, -vhether ex- pressed or implied, to issue orders of a cer- tain kind does not of itself place an officer in a duty status for all purposes. Neither the issuance of such orders nor the exercise of general supervision over the officers and men on duty is sufficient to place him in a duty status. It does not appear that the claimant actually retained or placed him- self on duty in accordance with general or- ders No. 130, or that he was assigned to duty by any superior military authority." Reinstatements in the Treasury. The Treasury Department has just de- cided two important questions of interest. to persons separated from the classified service, without delinquency or misconduct, and who apply for reinstatement before the expiration of the one-year time period un- der the limitations of the civil service rule 9. Applications have been made for rein- statement just before the year expired for the purpose of extending the time period of eligibility another year. The decision in such cases is that the department will not approve such applications, as it is believed that such action would be neither in the interests of the public nor of good admin- istration, and that it is in contravention of the civil service rules. Applications are also made for the rein- statement of persons separated from the classified service (by removal or resigna- tion), by reason of absence on account of annual and sick leave for a period of time greater than that allowed by law (sixty days). or by reason of resignation without delinquency or misconduct to enter other employment. The decision in such case is that when reinstated to the classified ser- vice it will be only to such grade and class as in the opinion of the department would be to the best interests of the public service, irrespective of the grades and classes held previously by the applicant. NO NEWS OF MISS STONE. Her Friends in Turkey Still Trying to Save Her. CONSTANTINOPLE, October 19.--Neither W. W. Peel, treasurer of the American Bible House, nor Spencer Eddy, secretary of the United States legation, had received any news up to noon today from the mis- sionaries who are searching for the brigands who kidnaped Miss Ellen M. Stone and her companion. Mine. Tsilka. Messrs. Peet and Eddy had a long confer- ence today as to the advisability ofe rein- forcing the searchers, but decided that the present arrangements sufficed. Consul General Dickinson remains at Sofia and will operate from there until the libera- tion of Miss Stone is accomplished. The diffcult nature of the country handi- caps the searchers and heavy rains have in- creased the diffculty of traversing the paths which are the only means of access to the hiding places of the bandits in the rugged mountain range, flanked on the west by the Rilo and on the east by the Rhodope moun- tains, the summits of which are already capped with snow extending some distance down.

Athletics Also Get Part of the Old Phillies' Players, Leaving That Team Crippled. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. PHILADELPHIA, October 19.-Seven members of the Philadelphia National League club have already signed two-year contracts to play with the American League, and two more are dickering with the latter organization. The players all de- n!ed having signed during the season, but most of them received substantial advance money, and then affixed their signatures to contracts at the close of the National League season.. Four of the, sevelt .will be seen.at Wash- ington, anid the .ot4'ir three with- the Ath- letics in this citiy. Left Fielder Delahanty, Third Baseman Wolverton and Pitchers Orth and Townsend will be with the Sena- tors, and Shortstop Monte Cross, Right Fielder Flick and Pitcher Duggleby with the Athletics. Delahanty gets the nmost money, his figures being 34,000, with $1,000 advance money. Flick, Cross, Wolverton .and Orth get 33,000 a piece, and have each received 3500 advance money, while Town- send and Duggleby are to get $2,400 each. This cripples the Philadelphia team, ar-d makes it almost impossible for the club to get together a winning aggregation next season, Jennings and White being the only ones who have, up to the present, signed with the Phillies for 19t%. Monte Cross, in discussing the wholesale jump, said: "If the Philadelphia club had offered us as much money as the American League we would not have jumped, for we think we stood a fair chance of winning the pennant next season. The players looked at the matter from a cold-blooded business standpoint, however, and as it meant an advance of at le st 3600 to every man, we felt justified in taking the step, particu- larly as our money Is guaranteed."

Stronger Government Needed. Senor Baretto conversed this afternoon- with an Evening Star reporter about the needs of the Philippines in a governmental sense. "The sensible people in 'the Philippines," he said, "are all in favor of Americans, but, of course, sensible people are in the minor- ity there, as they are in other countries. There should be a radical change in the system of government of the islands by the United States," he continued. "They need a stronger hand. "The civil commissions are altogether too numerous. The civil system should be re- organized and the military element given more power in directing the government, Some of the members of the Taft commis- sion are altogether too intimate with cer- tain native elements that should never be trusted, because they are absolutely un- trustworthy in every respect. They use the advantages they thus enjoy for the benefit of the insurrectos, who have their real sympathies. Does Not Understand Kindness. "The Filipinos do not understand kind- ness. He has been accustomed for genera- tions, like all other eastern peoples, to be- ing driven and he regards kindness as an indication of weakness. This is manifest to any one who knows the Filipinos well. "The civil commissioners have not been very fortunate in their selection of native appointees to office. As an instance, a na- tive was appointed governor of Batangas province by the name of Flaix Roxas. He failed at this and was appointed judge of one of the provinces in spite of the fact that he had never practiced law. Such ap- pointments, are numerous. "I think," said Senor Barrello, in conclu- sion, "the problem of pacifying the Phil- ippines and establishing stable government there will never be solved until the mili- tary branch of the United States is power- fully represented on any commission 'that may be selected for the purpose. The pres- ent plan will certainly never accomplish anything of substance in the direction men- tioned." DIRNEY SCHOOL OPENED. Program of the Exercises Held Late Yesterday Afternoon. Formal opening exercises were held late yesterday afternoon at the new Birney public school building, colored, on Nichols aienue near Howard avenue, Hillsdale. They were of a local character and were attended by many representative colored people of that part of the District. Prof. Hosmer M. Johnson, the supervising prin- cipal of the eighth public school division, was the presiding officer. In the broad lower hall of the new building a program of interest was rendered, participated in by the teachers and pupils of the school. Miss Bessie Patterson, a pupil of the eighth grade, performed on the piano. Prof. John- son called the gathering to order shortly after 3 o'clock, and the exercises were be- gun by the singing of "The Stars and Stripes Forever" by the teaohers and pupils assembled. Prof. Johnson next made an opening address, in the course of which he referred to the fact that he was a com- parative stranger to the people of Hills- dale, and that he was pleased to greet them on such an auspicious occasion. He de- tailed a number of improvements that are yet to be made to add to the external ap- pearance of the school house, and congrat- ulated the people upon the acquisition of so fine a structure. He read a letter from Mr. W. S. Montgomery, in charge of the colored public schoois of the District, who was prevented by an engagement from attend- ing the exercises, which stated that "the name Birney recalls the fact that he who bore It was an earnest champion of truth and right and helped to hasten the day of physical freedom to the negro race!'' Mr. Solomon G. Brown of Hillsdale was introduced by Prof. Johnson. "The one who signed the bill through which t'his beautiful school building was secured," he said, "lies now cold in death, struck down by an assassin. We mourn his loss." Mr. Brown then presented to the school a like- ness of the late President McKinley. He followed with the reading of an original poem, the progressiveness of the country and its educational system being the theme. Rev. John M. Shippen of Hillsdale made a brief address, in which he presented to the supervising principal and the teachers of the Birney b uiding the greetings and good will of the people of Hillsdale. He spoke of the interest that should be maintained between parents and teachers for the suc- cessful conduct of the school. Rev. Dr. William H. Hunter of Hillsdale was the next speaker. He told his recollections of other days, when there were no schools for the colored people, and contrasted the difficulties attending the education of the colored man then with the great privileges now enjoyed and typefied by the Birney building and its splendid facilities. Dr. J. N. Johnson of Howard avenue, Hillsdale, who was next called upon by Prof. Johnson, spoke of his personal ex- periences in the matter of obtaining an edu- cation. Miss L. FePonnen, one of the local teachers, followed with a song, "The Holy City." Rev. C. H. Parker of Hillsdale then spoke, testifying to the pride the com- munity of Hillsdale felt in the work done by the District Commissioners and the offi- cials of the public schools in providing for the new building at Hillsdale. Rev. Frank P. Lewis, pastor of the Camp- bell A. M. E. Church, Nichols avenue, Hills- dale, who was the next speaker, gave ad- vice to the pupils and complimented the work of the supervising principal and the local teachers. Mr. John Dale wasn then introduced and dwelt upon the efforts made .by' the citizens of Hildale to have pro- vision made for the new school house. He congratulated the people of the section upon their success, and made complimentary ref- erence to Supervising Principal Johnson and the corps of teachers. The exercises were brought to a close with the singing of "America" by the audience. The build- ing was then thrown open for the inspection of the people of th& neighborhood. The Birney school is now the main school building in the Hilladale section.-It in an eight-room structure, accommodate, over 50') pupils in thirteen schools, comrisng the grades fromt the Birst to the .eighth.. in- clusive.

One of the questions that will require the prompt and serious consideration of Secre- tary Root on his return to this city uext week will be the qilitary situation in the Philippines. The recent serious outbreaks in the Island of Samar have disturbed the authorities considerably. It Is realised that they may prove a serious setback to the plans of the administration for the pacifica- tion of the Filipinos and of American sny- ereignty. There Is no longer any prospect of any substantial reduction in the strength of the Philippine army for some time to come. In fact, the latest advices from GUn. Chaffee contain argument against any re- duction of the army at this time, except as required by the expiration of enlistments. As pointed out by General Corbin In his annual report, the army will lose nearly 2.000 men a month on that account. The War Department officials are now consider- ing how to meet this prospective deficiency without impairing the efficiency of the mil- itary establishment In the Philippines. General Chaffee has said that he will re- quire three extra transports to assist in bringing home the short-term men within the next six or eight months. The quar- termaster's department has selected the transports Meade, Rosecrans and Egbert for this special service. The last two named will leave Washington ports In a few weeks for Manila. They will take out civilian employes and supplies. The Meade. which Is at San Francisco, is being held in reserve for the purpose of taking out troops to replace those to be brought home. Other vessels which will be utilised in taking troops to the Philippines are the Grant at San Francisco and the Crook at New York. The former, which is expect- M to leave about the middle of next month, will carry out an entire regiment with its equipment, and the Crook will take the nucleus of another regiment and a number of recruits. She will start about the 1st of December. Although not set- tled it is probable that the 28th Infantry. now in the department of the Columbia, will be ordered to the Philippines on the Grant. Final action on these matters will be deferred until after Secretary Root re- turns to Washington next week: It will be for him to decide whether the army in the Philippines shall be maintained at its present strength, and If so how the re- ductions caused by expired enlistments shall be made up. It is practically settled that many line officers now engaged on re- cruiting. service In this country will be oidered to duty in the Philippines. WILL BE GONE OVER A YEAR. Another Exploring Expedition by Messrs. Lathrop and Fairchild. A second expedition over a wide area of foreign country, undertaken In the hope of discovering exotics capable of profitable growth In the United States, is to be started from San Francisco about the middle of No- vember at the expense of Mr.Barbour Lath- rop of Chicago. Two persons are to compose the party-Mr. Lathrop himself and Mr. D. G. Fairchild of the Agricultural Depart- ment, who has been detailed to that ser- vice. The journey Is to take the travelers through the South Sea islands of New Zea- land, Western Australia, the coast of Chi- na. British India and other districts, and will probably last more than a year. Mr. Fairchild will leave Washington October 23. When Mr. Fairchild and Mr. Lathrop went away in 1897 they visited the greater part of both hemispheres. These two undertakings are the conception of Mr. Lathrop, a capitalist who has trav- eled widely and who desires to encourage the introduction into American soil of the greatest possible number of agricultural food products now grown exclusively else- where, but capable of growth either in the United States or in its insular possessions. Many sections of the country now compar- atively unproductive, such as the arid lands of the west, are susceptible of much development, it is believed, through the in- troduction of proper agricultural methods and materials. Many other districts are now occupied in the cultivation of one or two staple commodities only while the soil and climate are thought to favor the growth of many other. products. When Mr. Lathrop, though not a botanist or an agri- culturist, became convinced of this possi- bility he entered into conference with the Agricultural Department and offered to pay all the expenses of such expeditions as the two Indicated If the department would make the experiments necessary and foster the growth of desirable plants and cereals. Building Permits Issued. Building permits were issued today as follows: M. E. Roberts, to build three-story brick store and dwelling at 1157 23d street north- west ; cost. $3,600. Charles-Hines, to make general repairs to 1215 Kenesaw 'avenue northwest, Columbia Heights; cost, $1.000. William Conrades, to make general re- pairs to 5113 Illinois avenue, Brightwood Park; cost, $200. Memnorial to Presiet MeKinley. The Baltimore and Ohio Railway Company has issued Its October number of the "Book of the Royal Blue," which has been de- voted to a memorial to President McKinley, from which the usual advertising features have been omitted. This number contains a composite editorial devolved from all the leading newspapers; a composite sermon embracing the best thoughts of all the leading divines; a composite eulogy from the touching tributes of prominent people, comprising a remarkable collection of thought and expression.

Eaummies FINANCE AND TRADE Oopper ad 8mgar Beming 8tocb Active Today. OTBI VIE TE LIE TU BULL Effort to Force General Cover- ing of Shorts Failed GENERAL MARKET REPORTS Special Diapatch to TIP ivening Star. NEW YORK. October 19.-Today was a holiday on the London stock exchange. In the local stock exchange market there were few changes of importance at the opening, and the initial dealings. with one or two exceptions, notably Amalgamated Copper and Northern Pacinc preferred. were dull and uninteresting. Northern Pa- cific preferred opened up 1-4 per cent and quickly gained a point on small transar- tions. This advance, however. did not laist. and on a little selling to take profits the stock declined 2 1-2 points. to 10r3 1-2. subse- quently rallying to opening figures. Amal- gamated Copper opened at about yester- day's closing price, but on rumors of settlement of differences between a prominent Boston operator and the Standard Oil interest the stock was rather heavily bought from the start and the price advanced over 2%1 per cent, mostly on cov- ering of short contracts. one room trader covering 5.t00 shares during the first half hour that he had sold at the opening. The advance in copper brought about a sympathetic movement in the railway list. nearly all of the active stocks moving up fractionally from % to % per cent. Trading In th'e local Traction shares was extremely lifeless, and the little that was done developed fractional weaknesses throughout that group. Sugar stock fluc- tuated irregularly within a point. The market was allowed to drift irreg- ularly until after the publication of the bank statement, when, because of the non- appearance of pressure to sell. another at- tempt was made to lift prices under the lead of Amalgamated Copper. The buying of this stock. which was persistent and credited to Boston houses, advanced the price of this specialty to a new high level W#. Outside of this stock and Sugar Refining stock--in both of whit-h a considerable short interest is said to exist-the general market's advance was only fractional, and long stock was met on each of the =mAli rallies. Every effort was made to start a general covering movement, notwithstand- ing the fact that the bank statement was manifestly unfavorable, and it was not sur- prising that these efforts fell flat in regard to the general railway list. According to the bank statement issued today the local banks have loot g1.411.Pti in lawful money, which is about g.005 less than the estimates. The increase in loans was attributed in a large part to the shifting of accommodations from the for- eign exchange market to the local markt. The increase in deposits is very nearly n- sistent with the charges in cash an I in loans. and the net result brings the sur- plus down tig$1..4477,. The statement follows: Reserve, decreap- ed V2.017.40; loans. increased $4.4#38..-dso; specie. decreased $'601.tieio; legai. decrease-d $%t51.10; deposits. increased $2.425.200; cir- culation. Increased S3lr.twt Summing up the market for the day. the feature. aside from Amalgamated Copper, which was ac- tive and accounted for more than half of the total transactions, was the intense dull- ness and general lack of character in the speculation. This speculative apathy was variously attributed to the absence of f.ur- eign trading, expectation, from the start. of an unfavorable bank statement. and unt- certainty regarding the Northern Pacitic deal. And 'It might be added. also, to a feeling, on the part of some of the shrewd room traders. that not enough reaction has occurred in the active railway shares giare the heavy covering movement in these shares earlier in the week. and by which process most of the short friterest In the market (the really sustaining element in the market for the past thrm- weeks) was made to cover their outstanding contracets.

;IG CROWD PRESENT

NEW YORK. October 19.-Walt,-r J. Tra-2 of the Garden City Club. the national

elf champion, and Charles H. Seeley ofWeeburn, the Connecticut state champion,began the final round of thirty-six h.Aesmatt'h pl:.y for the Westbrook cup on theWestbrook Golf Club links today. A gre:atdeal of Interest is centered on this n.artcf,as these two have not met since Seeley beatTravis in the semi-final round of the Metro-politan championship last spring. £he playtoday was divided into two rounds of'ighteen holes each, and in addition therewas a ',-hole medal play handicap, whichattracted a large and representative fieldof metropolitan golfers. The weather con-

ditions were simplyperfect, and the fairgreen and putting greens could not havebeen in better condition.

Wind In Their Favor.When Travis and Seeley started out for

their first round of the links there was a

gale of wind back of them which madetheir drives and brassey shots go muchfurther than either expected. Travis slicedinto the rough grass, but made a good re-

covery. Seeley drove straight, but over-ran the green with his second. Travismade up his disadvantage at this point, antithe hole was halved in fives.Driving for the second hole, Seeley's

ball hit the telegraph wires and he playedagain without penalty. Both were on *hegreen in two, with Seeley having the bet-ter position. Travis overran his put andSeeley won the hole in 4 to 5.Going to the third hole Seetev lost his

advantage by slicing his drive into thewoods. and Travis playing steadily squaredthe score in 4 to 6.The next was halved in fours. but Travis

laced a stymie for his opponent on the fifthhole and won it in 4 to 5.

Facing the Wind Home.The players then had to face the wind

and their drives were a bit short. Seeleyplayed the better ball and with a beautifulapproach shot had his ball dead for thehole and won it In 4 to 5.Travis reached the seventh green in two,

making a splendid drive and a long brasseyshot. Seeley got into the roadway on hisdrive and this handicapped him. Traviswon the hole in 4 to 6.Travis got into difficulties in his approach

for the eighth hole and Seeley was equalto the occasion, squaring the match oncemore by holing out in 4 to 7.Travis got out on the ninth green In

three. Seeley took four. Travis ran downa twenty-foot put and won the hole in 4 to#;. which was a very brilliant play. as thedistance was 4*' yards.

and Seeley p.1yed so closely that it wasanyi-dy's match up to the eighteenth hole.which Travis w'n in C. to 7.- This madehim one up. and Seeley contested everyinch of ground that was traversed, andplayed so well that Travis had to do all heknew in order to keep his end up.Following are the cards for the second

ON CHEVY CHASE LINKS.

Finaj Match for The Evening Star0 Golf Trophy.

The final match for The Evening Starcup between the Chevy Chase and Co-!l:mbla Clubs was started today at 2

-ek. on the links of the former c'ub.The weather was not so pleasant as on

Wedr.sday. when the two teams met onth- Columbia links. a stiff wind from thesouthwest making the drives of the di'ffer-ent players uncertain.As this match is the final one of the

season for the cup more than the usual in-t-rest was taken in the contest and thespectators began gathering at the beauti-ful 'hevy Chase Club house as early as theno, n'. hour.The players on the two teams were eager

for the fray, and were out early taking alittl- exerci.e in th.. way of making drivesor else getting their drive in first-class con-dition with putting on the green. After thec'nt.-st opened several parties of ladlesdrove up to the club house In handsometurnouts, and becaime interested spectatorsfor the rest of the afternoon. The ChevyChase course is in the best condition, thegra'.s being at the velvety stage, while thesurrounding trees presented a kaleidoscopeof color.The captains of both teams. Mr. F. 0.

Iiorstman and L. L. Harban, were earlyarrivals at the club house, and for sometime were busily engaged In lining uptheir men so) as to get the best results. Mr.Hlorstman made but one change in theCh.' y Chase team from that of last Wed-nesday, substituting R. Jenkins for ArthurlBriceThe latter is classed as one of the most

skillful golfers of the C'hevy Chase club,but hi5 game has gone all to pieces of lateand he requested to be let out of today'smatch. Dr. Hiarhan had also but onechange to maKe in his team from that ofWednesday. Dr. Hi. T. Harding replacingJohn Joy Ed.son, .Jr. Mr. Edson's stronggame. iike that of Mr. Brice, has also goneto the howwous, and he gracefully retired,a.. he believ.)d that the Columbia teamw-d heib. strength-ned by the addition oflDr Hasring.

SUNDERLAND MEMORIAL

PROPOSED CHANGE IN, 16AJE Or

FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

Committee to lie Named Tomorrow to

Take Matter in Charge-SpectalServlces.

Responding to a sentiment among the per-sonal friends of Dr. Sunderland, who be-lieve that a more lasting memorial shouldbe provided than a mere service, a move-

mtnt Is on foot to change the name of theFirst Presbyterian Church to the Sunder-land Memorial Church, making It as a

precedent to such change that the debt of$1N.0(X now due by the congregation shallbe paid in full. Substantial pledges to thisend have already been received, -and it isbelieved the movement will be taken upwith enthusiasm by his frinds, not only inthe District of Columbia, but all over theecuntry.

It is believed that no more fitting way ofperpetuating the memory of his life couldbe adopted than is the movement now be-Ing advocated, because during his lastyears the debt was believed by him to be ahindrance upon the church's efficiency indoing the work called for, which, becauseof its history and prestige, It should beable to do.

HALL- GANE- IN POLITICS

CANDIDATE FOR SEAT IN TEE MANKPARLIAMENT.

His Self-Coustrueted Platform Savors

Strongly of Socialisnm and Alarms

His Supporters.

LONDON. October 19.-Hall Caine hasconsented to become a candidate for theManx parliament in behalf of the town ofRamsay. His opponent is a local lawyer.Mr. Caine's address has created consterna-tion even among-his own supporters, fQr-he advocates sweeping changes that mightwell be planks in a national platform ofsome great reform party. First of all, Mr.Caine wants to nationalize the steamshipservice connecting the Ise of Man withEngland, running it without profit. Thenhe applies himself to the Manx steam andstreet railroads and would furnish thesame radical -system to- them. Land mustbe treated in a somewhat similar manner,the Manx paj-liament controlling the drain-age, cultivation and tree planting. Thebanks, of course, are included in this na-tionalization scheme, by which Mr. Cainebelieved that such financial scandals asoccurred in the Isle of Man last year wouldbe avoided.Mr. Caine justifies these apparently un-

profitable national undertakings by point-ing out that the primary factor in Manxprosperity is the island's popularity as aholiday resort, and that it must prosper ordecline as it meets the needs of the vis-itors.With a parting reference to the necessity

of a reform of the system of representa-tion and ridding the legal system of itsanachronistic superfluities, the 1author com-mits himself and his program into thehands of the intelligent citizens of Ramsay.

DISALLOWED THE CLAIM.

Gen. Harries Denied Two Months' Ex-tra Pay for Service in 1898.

General Geo. H. Harries having taken an

appeal from the decision of the auditor forthe War Department, disallowing him twomonths' extra pay as colonel of the 1st Dis-trict of Columbia Infantry during the Span-ish war, the controller of the treasury hasheld that General Harries is not entitled tothe extra pay and affirms the decision ofthe auditor. The auditor disallowed theclaim because the records show that Col.Harries was on waiting orders from Sep-tember 12 to November 10, 1898, and thatthere is no record showing that he waspresent for duty during that period exceptfor one day.The controller says that the records are

conflicting as to whether or not GeneralHarries was on waiting orders during theentire period of the regimental furlough.The controller refers to the general ordersof the War Department, directing thatleaves of absence for sixty days and fur-lotughs for the same period be granted offi-cers and men who served beyond the limitsof the United States, and says that thisorder was subsequently amended so as toplace the officers on waiting orders insteadof granting them leaves of absence.The controller said that the commander

of a regiment could place himself in a dutystatus by merely doing work of a militarycharacter, but "it does not appear thatColonel Harries took any action to placehimself on duty. He contends, however,that his orders recalling certain officers ofhis regiment to duty after having placedthem on waiting orders have been recog-nized by this office as valid and bindingupon those officers."The controller concludes as follows:"It is possible for a commanding officer

to exercise some supervision over the af-fairs of his regiment during a furlough pe-riod without interfering with his civil pur-suits, and in that case the exercise of suchsupervision would not seem to place him ina duty status. The authority, -vhether ex-pressed or implied, to issue orders of a cer-tain kind does not of itself place an officerin a duty status for all purposes. Neitherthe issuance of such orders nor the exerciseof general supervision over the officers andmen on duty is sufficient to place him in aduty status. It does not appear that theclaimant actually retained or placed him-self on duty in accordance with general or-ders No. 130, or that he was assigned toduty by any superior military authority."

Reinstatements in the Treasury.The Treasury Department has just de-

cided two important questions of interest.to persons separated from the classifiedservice, without delinquency or misconduct,and who apply for reinstatement before theexpiration of the one-year time period un-der the limitations of the civil servicerule 9.Applications have been made for rein-

statement just before the year expired forthe purpose of extending the time periodof eligibility another year. The decision insuch cases is that the department will notapprove such applications, as it is believedthat such action would be neither in theinterests of the public nor of good admin-istration, and that it is in contraventionof the civil service rules.Applications are also made for the rein-

statement of persons separated from theclassified service (by removal or resigna-tion), by reason of absence on account ofannual and sick leave for a period of timegreater than that allowed by law (sixtydays). or by reason of resignation withoutdelinquency or misconduct to enter otheremployment. The decision in such case isthat when reinstated to the classified ser-vice it will be only to such grade and classas in the opinion of the department wouldbe to the best interests of the public service,irrespective of the grades and classes heldpreviously by the applicant.

Team Crippled.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.PHILADELPHIA, October 19.-Seven

members of the Philadelphia NationalLeague club have already signed two-yearcontracts to play with the AmericanLeague, and two more are dickering withthe latter organization. The players all de-n!ed having signed during the season, butmost of them received substantial advancemoney, and then affixed their signatures tocontracts at the close of the NationalLeague season..Four of the, sevelt .will be seen.at Wash-

ington, anid the .ot4'ir three with- the Ath-letics in this citiy. Left Fielder Delahanty,Third Baseman Wolverton and PitchersOrth and Townsend will be with the Sena-tors, and Shortstop Monte Cross, RightFielder Flick and Pitcher Duggleby withthe Athletics. Delahanty gets the nmostmoney, his figures being 34,000, with $1,000advance money. Flick, Cross, Wolverton.and Orth get 33,000 a piece, and have eachreceived 3500 advance money, while Town-send and Duggleby are to get $2,400 each.This cripples the Philadelphia team, ar-dmakes it almost impossible for the club toget together a winning aggregation nextseason, Jennings and White being the onlyones who have, up to the present, signedwith the Phillies for 19t%.Monte Cross, in discussing the wholesale

jump, said: "If the Philadelphia club hadoffered us as much money as the AmericanLeague we would not have jumped, for wethink we stood a fair chance of winning thepennant next season. The players looked atthe matter from a cold-blooded businessstandpoint, however, and as it meant anadvance of at le st 3600 to every man, wefelt justified in taking the step, particu-larly as our money Is guaranteed."

PHiLIPPNE GOVERNMENT

A NATIVE SAYS A STRONGER RAND

IS MEUIRED.

FiliItmes Do WetUmderstand KN4daems-Plan of Civil Government Not

Equal to the Emergeneies.

Senor Enrique M. Barretto. chief trans-lstor for the provost marshal general ofMrcnila, is at the Raleigh. He is on sev-

enty-five days' leave of absence from hispcst. He is one of the best known Fill-pinos in Manila, and was a loyal adherentof the United States from the outset of thewar with Spain.He was born at Manila. December 12.

1850O. and was sent to school at the age ofeight years. In 1863 he went to an English-Italian school in Hong Kong, China, and in1866 he was sent to a school in England.at Richmond. Surrey. near London, and re-

mained there until 186. He speaks Span-ish. English, French, Italian, Portugueseand Tagalog. In 186 he returned to Ma-nila and entered the firm of Russell & Stur-gis. American merchants, and also acted asinterpreteroto the United States consul, whoat that time was I. B. Pearson, senior part-ner of the above flral.In 1872 he returned to Europe and was

married in Italy. and returned to Manilathe same year and joined his father's firm.B. A. Baretto & Co. In 1875 he wasmade a partner of his father's firm, and ipthe same year was appointed Italian consulby his majesty King Victor Emmanuel.He owned and managed the San Miguel

foundry and iron works, the first concernestablished in these islands, and built allthe sugar mills, hemp and tobacco pressesand steam launches working at that timein the islands.

Stronger Government Needed.Senor Baretto conversed this afternoon-

with an Evening Star reporter about theneeds of the Philippines in a governmentalsense."The sensible people in 'the Philippines,"

he said, "are all in favor of Americans, but,of course, sensible people are in the minor-ity there, as they are in other countries.There should be a radical change in thesystem of government of the islands bythe United States," he continued. "Theyneed a stronger hand."The civil commissions are altogether too

numerous. The civil system should be re-organized and the military element givenmore power in directing the government,Some of the members of the Taft commis-sion are altogether too intimate with cer-tain native elements that should never betrusted, because they are absolutely un-trustworthy in every respect. They usethe advantages they thus enjoy for thebenefit of the insurrectos, who have theirreal sympathies.

Does Not Understand Kindness."The Filipinos do not understand kind-

ness. He has been accustomed for genera-tions, like all other eastern peoples, to be-ing driven and he regards kindness as anindication of weakness. This is manifest toany one who knows the Filipinos well."The civil commissioners have not been

very fortunate in their selection of nativeappointees to office. As an instance, a na-tive was appointed governor of Batangasprovince by the name of Flaix Roxas. Hefailed at this and was appointed judge ofone of the provinces in spite of the factthat he had never practiced law. Such ap-pointments, are numerous."I think," said Senor Barrello, in conclu-

sion, "the problem of pacifying the Phil-ippines and establishing stable governmentthere will never be solved until the mili-tary branch of the United States is power-fully represented on any commission 'thatmay be selected for the purpose. The pres-ent plan will certainly never accomplishanything of substance in the direction men-tioned."

DIRNEY SCHOOL OPENED.

Program of the Exercises Held LateYesterday Afternoon.

Formal opening exercises were held lateyesterday afternoon at the new Birneypublic school building, colored, on Nicholsaienue near Howard avenue, Hillsdale.They were of a local character and wereattended by many representative coloredpeople of that part of the District. Prof.Hosmer M. Johnson, the supervising prin-cipal of the eighth public school division,was the presiding officer. In the broadlower hall of the new building a programof interest was rendered, participated in bythe teachers and pupils of the school. MissBessie Patterson, a pupil of the eighthgrade, performed on the piano. Prof. John-son called the gathering to order shortlyafter 3 o'clock, and the exercises were be-gun by the singing of "The Stars andStripes Forever" by the teaohers and pupilsassembled. Prof. Johnson next made anopening address, in the course of which hereferred to the fact that he was a com-parative stranger to the people of Hills-dale, and that he was pleased to greet themon such an auspicious occasion. He de-tailed a number of improvements that areyet to be made to add to the external ap-pearance of the school house, and congrat-ulated the people upon the acquisition of sofine a structure. He read a letter from Mr.W. S. Montgomery, in charge of the coloredpublic schoois of the District, who wasprevented by an engagement from attend-ing the exercises, which stated that "thename Birney recalls the fact that he whobore It was an earnest champion of truthand right and helped to hasten the day ofphysical freedom to the negro race!''Mr. Solomon G. Brown of Hillsdale was

introduced by Prof. Johnson. "The onewho signed the bill through which t'hisbeautiful school building was secured," hesaid, "lies now cold in death, struck downby an assassin. We mourn his loss." Mr.Brown then presented to the school a like-ness of the late President McKinley. Hefollowed with the reading of an originalpoem, the progressiveness of the countryand its educational system being the theme.Rev. John M. Shippen of Hillsdale made abrief address, in which he presented to thesupervising principal and the teachers ofthe Birney b uiding the greetings and goodwill of the people of Hillsdale. He spokeof the interest that should be maintainedbetween parents and teachers for the suc-cessful conduct of the school. Rev. Dr.William H. Hunter of Hillsdale was thenext speaker. He told his recollections ofother days, when there were no schoolsfor the colored people, and contrasted thedifficulties attending the education of thecolored man then with the great privilegesnow enjoyed and typefied by the Birneybuilding and its splendid facilities.Dr. J. N. Johnson of Howard avenue,

Hillsdale, who was next called upon byProf. Johnson, spoke of his personal ex-periences in the matter of obtaining an edu-cation. Miss L. FePonnen, one of the localteachers, followed with a song, "The HolyCity." Rev. C. H. Parker of Hillsdalethen spoke, testifying to the pride the com-munity of Hillsdale felt in the work doneby the District Commissioners and the offi-cials of the public schools in providingfor the new building at Hillsdale.Rev. Frank P. Lewis, pastor of the Camp-

bell A. M. E. Church, Nichols avenue, Hills-dale, who was the next speaker, gave ad-vice to the pupils and complimented thework of the supervising principal and thelocal teachers. Mr. John Dale wasn thenintroduced and dwelt upon the efforts made.by' the citizens of Hildale to have pro-vision made for the new school house. Hecongratulated the people of the section upontheir success, and made complimentary ref-erence to Supervising Principal Johnsonand the corps of teachers.

NOSUBSTANTO'EDUCTION

RECBSARY MILITAUT PUeCe 11

Three Eatra Aramy Teamaports Weededto Bring Home the Time-

Eaptered Men.

One of the questions that will require theprompt and serious consideration of Secre-tary Root on his return to this city uextweek will be the qilitary situation in thePhilippines. The recent serious outbreaksin the Island of Samar have disturbed theauthorities considerably. It Is realised thatthey may prove a serious setback to theplans of the administration for the pacifica-tion of the Filipinos and of American sny-ereignty. There Is no longer any prospectof any substantial reduction in the strengthof the Philippine army for some time tocome. In fact, the latest advices from GUn.Chaffee contain argument against any re-

duction of the army at this time, except asrequired by the expiration of enlistments.As pointed out by General Corbin In his

annual report, the army will lose nearly2.000 men a month on that account. TheWar Department officials are now consider-ing how to meet this prospective deficiencywithout impairing the efficiency of the mil-itary establishment In the Philippines.General Chaffee has said that he will re-quire three extra transports to assist inbringing home the short-term men withinthe next six or eight months. The quar-termaster's department has selected thetransports Meade, Rosecrans and Egbertfor this special service. The last twonamed will leave Washington ports In afew weeks for Manila. They will take outcivilian employes and supplies. The Meade.which Is at San Francisco, is being held inreserve for the purpose of taking outtroops to replace those to be brought home.Other vessels which will be utilised in

taking troops to the Philippines are theGrant at San Francisco and the Crook atNew York. The former, which is expect-M to leave about the middle of nextmonth, will carry out an entire regimentwith its equipment, and the Crook willtake the nucleus of another regiment anda number of recruits. She will start aboutthe 1st of December. Although not set-tled it is probable that the 28th Infantry.now in the department of the Columbia,will be ordered to the Philippines on theGrant.Final action on these matters will be

deferred until after Secretary Root re-turns to Washington next week: It willbe for him to decide whether the army inthe Philippines shall be maintained at itspresent strength, and If so how the re-ductions caused by expired enlistmentsshall be made up. It is practically settledthat many line officers now engaged on re-cruiting. service In this country will beoidered to duty in the Philippines.WILL BE GONE OVER A YEAR.

Another Exploring Expedition byMessrs. Lathrop and Fairchild.

A second expedition over a wide area offoreign country, undertaken In the hope ofdiscovering exotics capable of profitablegrowth In the United States, is to be startedfrom San Francisco about the middle of No-vember at the expense of Mr.Barbour Lath-rop of Chicago. Two persons are to composethe party-Mr. Lathrop himself and Mr. D.G. Fairchild of the Agricultural Depart-ment, who has been detailed to that ser-vice. The journey Is to take the travelersthrough the South Sea islands of New Zea-land, Western Australia, the coast of Chi-na. British India and other districts, andwill probably last more than a year. Mr.Fairchild will leave Washington October 23.When Mr. Fairchild and Mr. Lathrop

went away in 1897 they visited the greaterpart of both hemispheres.These two undertakings are the conception

of Mr. Lathrop, a capitalist who has trav-eled widely and who desires to encouragethe introduction into American soil of thegreatest possible number of agriculturalfood products now grown exclusively else-where, but capable of growth either in theUnited States or in its insular possessions.Many sections of the country now compar-atively unproductive, such as the aridlands of the west, are susceptible of muchdevelopment, it is believed, through the in-troduction of proper agricultural methodsand materials. Many other districts arenow occupied in the cultivation of oneor two staple commodities only while thesoil and climate are thought to favor thegrowth of many other. products. When Mr.Lathrop, though not a botanist or an agri-culturist, became convinced of this possi-bility he entered into conference with theAgricultural Department and offered topay all the expenses of such expeditionsas the two Indicated If the departmentwould make the experiments necessary andfoster the growth of desirable plants andcereals.

GENERAL MARKET REPORTS

Special Diapatch to TIP ivening Star.NEW YORK. October 19.-Today was a

holiday on the London stock exchange.In the local stock exchange market there

were few changes of importance at theopening, and the initial dealings. with oneor two exceptions, notably AmalgamatedCopper and Northern Pacinc preferred.were dull and uninteresting. Northern Pa-cific preferred opened up 1-4 per cent andquickly gained a point on small transar-tions. This advance, however. did not laist.and on a little selling to take profits thestock declined 2 1-2 points. to 10r3 1-2. subse-quently rallying to opening figures. Amal-gamated Copper opened at about yester-day's closing price, but on rumorsof settlement of differences betweena prominent Boston operator and theStandard Oil interest the stock was ratherheavily bought from the start and the priceadvanced over 2%1 per cent, mostly on cov-ering of short contracts. one room tradercovering 5.t00 shares during the first halfhour that he had sold at the opening.The advance in copper brought about asympathetic movement in the railway list.nearly all of the active stocks moving upfractionally from % to % per cent.Trading In th'e local Traction shares was

extremely lifeless, and the little that wasdone developed fractional weaknessesthroughout that group. Sugar stock fluc-tuated irregularly within a point.The market was allowed to drift irreg-ularly until after the publication of the

bank statement, when, because of the non-appearance of pressure to sell. another at-tempt was made to lift prices under thelead of Amalgamated Copper. The buyingof this stock. which was persistent andcredited to Boston houses, advanced theprice of this specialty to a new high levelW#.Outside of this stock and Sugar Refiningstock--in both of whit-h a considerable

short interest is said to exist-the generalmarket's advance was only fractional, andlong stock was met on each of the =mAlirallies. Every effort was made to start ageneral covering movement, notwithstand-ing the fact that the bank statement wasmanifestly unfavorable, and it was not sur-prising that these efforts fell flat in regardto the general railway list.According to the bank statement issued

today the local banks have loot g1.411.Ptiin lawful money, which is about g.005less than the estimates. The increase inloans was attributed in a large part to theshifting of accommodations from the for-eign exchange market to the local markt.The increase in deposits is very nearly n-sistent with the charges in cash an I inloans. and the net result brings the sur-plus down tig$1..4477,.The statement follows: Reserve, decreap-ed V2.017.40; loans. increased $4.4#38..-dso;specie. decreased $'601.tieio; legai. decrease-d$%t51.10; deposits. increased $2.425.200; cir-culation. Increased S3lr.twt Summing upthe market for the day. the feature. asidefrom Amalgamated Copper, which was ac-tive and accounted for more than half ofthe total transactions, was the intense dull-ness and general lack of character in thespeculation. This speculative apathy wasvariously attributed to the absence of f.ur-eign trading, expectation, from the start.of an unfavorable bank statement. and unt-certainty regarding the Northern Paciticdeal. And 'It might be added. also, to afeeling, on the part of some of the shrewdroom traders. that not enough reaction hasoccurred in the active railway shares giarethe heavy covering movement in theseshares earlier in the week. and by whichprocess most of the short friterest In themarket (the really sustaining element inthe market for the past thrm- weeks) wasmade to cover their outstanding contracets.
