MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
New York, June . It was a narrow and
professional market at the Stock Ex
change again to day and naturally the
dealings possessed no aignlttcance. Less
than 50,000 shares were traded In. At the
opening the market was tirm on further
covering by recent short sellers who are
Imbued with the Idea that the 8t. Louis
convention will adopt a sound currency
plank. Sugar was the strongest stock at
the opening and advanced to 125 on the re
cover)' In the price of raws. According to
cable advices liquidations In the market
have ceased and accordingly an advance
In the price of refined Is looked for. Near
the close the stock was raided down to
13S, but at the decline brokers usually
acting for lower Wall street Interests
came In with buying orders and a rally
to followed. The general railway
list advanced HaH per cent, at the start,
Louisville and Nashville and the Grangers
leading. Toward the close, when the de
mand from the shorts abated prices
sagged and the Improvement noted was
generally lost. Northern Pacific, Pre
ferred, and Reading were positively weak,
the former declining 1 to It, and the lat
ter to 8T. The weakness of these Issues
Is due to sales by holders who do not de
sire to pay further assessments. Specula
tion closed quiet with prices generally a
fraction lower on the day. Northern Pa
cific, Preferred, lost a point, while Man
hattan and Bay State Gas gained Hai per
cent.

STRIFE ON SINGING OF "DIXIE."
Basis of the Itrfusnl of n Oorgin
Pupil to Tnkc His Diploma.
Cartersvlllc, Gn., June 7. For the
first time In the south's history "Dixie"
has caused discord. Since last night
in this town of 10,00 Inhabitants various
degrees of harsh feelings have been ex
pended, and the public school board Is
In trouble. The graduating class of the
Cnrtersvllle high school consisted of
eight members, seven of whom received
their diplomas. Wilson Congers Flte,
the eighth boy, declined to receive his
sheepskin despite the fact thnt he had
llnlshed fourth In his class. The decla
mation contest was the cause of the re
fusal. Young Flte claims that the
Judges were unduly Influenced.
After the speech of Kdward Dwelle,
on "The New South" (Grady), the band,
at the request of persons In the theater,
played "Dixie." The thrilling music in
creased the enthusiasm that the speech
had stirred and Dwelle was given the
prize on oratory. Not only has Flte re
fused his diploma, but he has entered a
protest against the decision of the judg
es, asserting that they were Influenced
by the Interjection of "Dixie" Into the
programme of Dwelle's speech.
