Ah:'-' THE SCR ANTON TRIBUNE Fill D AT MORNISG. NOVEMBER ?, 1S9G. BANKS ARE TAKING , BUSINESS PAPER N Looter Ditficult for MerchaiU to Negotiate Notes. MUCH BETTER FEELING PREVAILS Plentr of Xoner o Call Loan at Five Per Cent., and on Time at Sit. Stock React aud Then Rally. Manhattan Break Three Point and I the Feature of the LUt. New York. Nov. 6. Wall Street has settled down Into a placid stale, and business today was conducted In a quiet, work tluy order. The crowds of people which have been in attendance at the Stock Exchange for a week were absent today, as were also the decora tions which ever since Friday of last week have adorned the Interior of the Exchange. The exultant shouts of the brokers, proclaiming the victory of sound money were also hushed, and everybody went about doing business Just as if there had been no such thing aB a sharp and decisive battle ut the polls only two days ago. The London market for American sc curllies was also much more quiet, anil while a generally bullish sentiment pre vailed the movements of prices were rather Irregular, the advices received from the United Spates in relation to the political situation havinu been somewhat conllictlng. Nevertheless, London operators did not sell any storks in this mark-t. Un the contrary, arbitrage dealers here re ceived small purchasing orders tr'-ni the other side, thus Indicating th'lt the underlying sentiment abroad Is bullish. FAVOKAW.K EFFECT IN LONDON. Private ndviies from London stated the favorable Inlluence of the Ameri can election is felt both ther! and on the Continent. There is more eor.ll.lence too, In a peaceful solution of the F.uat ern question, and llritish consols again advanced hhtii'ply. An Idea of the feeling existing on the other side may lie gleaned from the following cable, which Hallgarten ei Co.. received today from their special partner, Charles I. Hallgarten, In Eu rope: "As I never doubted. American civic virtue triumphed. A new era of pros perity has. begun." Notwithstanding the cheerful feeling abroad the tendency of the market on the resmnntiiiii of business today was reactionary. Stocks of all description ran off beneath the closing figures of vesterday, but the bears were not at all aggressive and the selling was rlilolly in the interest of the bulls, who were satislied w ith the prof ts which they had made on the recent advance. The decline, which was general, ex tended to .1 points in Manhattan, which sold at !W. Sugar fell off 2i points to 1 1 !i U . and nil the other prom inent stocks receded KglVa points, but around midday there was a general rally from the low prices. The money mnrkct again ruled ex tremely easy, ami this fact served to strengthen the market after the initial decline. Opening loans on mil In the Stock Exchange were made nt ! per cent., and one transaction of $:ioo,0i)0 was recorded nt that figure, thus show ing the plentiful supply of funds of fering, now that the maintenance of the gold standard has been positively assured. COMMERCIAL PAPER HETTEIt TOO. The Improvement In monetnry pondl . . tlons is not conllned to the call loan de partment, but tins extended to nil other blanches as well. Time money, which for several weeks prior to election was almost nominal, owing to the Indispo sition of lenders to let their money out of their control for more than twenty four hours nt a time, was more active, nnd 6 per cent, for all periods was the late quoted, whereas heretofore the very best llgure obtainable on prime stock exchange collateral has been 8 per cent. Resides, the market for commercial paper has undergone q'dte a change for the better. There has been prac tically nothing doing In this branch of the money market for a long time past, as manufacturers and merchants haW not required extensive accommodations, while the banks have refused to pur chase paper of any kind. Today, how ever, makers of paper were in the mnr ket more extensively and the banks were eagerly absorbing all the good names tendered, thus Indicating a far more healthy condition of affairs In the mercantile situation. There were several other matters which tobl of the revival of confidence nnd the broadening aspect of general business, potent among which" was a more active demnnd for sterling ox change from uptown Importers. The Increased Inquiry from that quarter, coupled with the decidedly easier con dition of the money market, gave the foreign exchange market a firmer as well as more active appearance, and actual selling quotations early In the day were fully one-quarter higher to the pound sterling than at the close yes terday. TRIED THE NEW MACHINES. All Vote Itcjtistcred Satisfactorily in Itoelicster, X. Y. Rochester, N. T., Nov. 5. The Myers ballot machine was tried on the larg est scale, and put to the severest test yet attempted In this city on Tuesday. On the whole, the result was very sat isfactory. Heretofore the machine has been used only in small and unimport ant town elections. The common coun cil here was induced to try It only at the last moment. Voters were surprised at the ease nnd rapidity with which they were able to make their political preferences known. Those that voted the straight ticket, and had, therefore, to push only one knob, met with no perplexity what ever. They could march In and out at the rate of from two to four a minute. Those voters that voted a split ticket required a little more time. They had to push a knob for each candidate they voted for. Still they voted with surprising rapidity. Sometimes the votes were at the average rate of two a minute. Rut sixty and seventy votes an hour was the average. One of the most satisfactory fea tures of the machine was the rapidity and accuracy with which It permitted the result of the election to be known. "Within twenty minutes after the clos ing of the polls the company's central office was In possession of the result of the voting for presidential and guber natorial candidates in all the districts except half a doien. These were ob tained by 6 o'clock. By 9 o'clock the result of the election In all districts on all the candidates was known ac curately. i NEGROES KILLED BY WHITE CAPS. Four Laborer Slain from Ambnsh at Mild Fork, Ala. i Birmingham, Ala., Nov. 6.

San Francisco, for two steel cruisers similar In essential respects to the I'nited States steamship Olympia, now flag ship of the Asiatic station. Each Arm will build one vessel and their completion will be a race against time. WOMEN AT THE POLLS. They Made a Mistake in Casting Some of Their Votes. Denver, Col., Nov. 5. The woman vote was very large In this city aud In most of the towns of the state. The emblem of the National Silver party was a picture of Senator Teller, and many women placed their cross beside that emblem, thinking they were vot ing for Teller and his Interests, while. In fact, such votes were for Rryan elec tors and the Populist state ticket. This fact alone will probably cause the de feat of the legislative ticket in this city favorable to Teller, although it will not affect the tinal return of Teller. Women served as clerks and Judges of election to good advantage and there were a number of canvassers and watchers of that sex. BIMETALLISTS MEET. Encouraged by the Election of McKinley, They Urge Agitation for Inter national Agreement. London, Nov. 5. A meeting of the members of the bimetallic League has been in session all the afternoon, en gaged in the work of drawing up a anl festo. Members from Hirmingham, Manehrsted and elsewhere are In at tendance. The document, which will be Issued tonight, Is signed by Messrs. A. L. leiiliuni, 11. K. Oreenfcl, Robert Harolay. 11. C, Oibbs, and H. -Mac-Nell. It claims that McKinley's elec tion Is a victory for inluinational bi metallism, and quotes the money plank of the St. Louis platform. Continuing it says: "In these circumstances, and In view of the strong agltutlon for free silver or natural bimetallism In State and fact, this agitation is likely to be main tained and developed and a genuine and determined effort upon the part of the new (Joveinment limy be confi dently anticipated to bring about an International bimetallic agreement for the opening of the mints of the various countries to silver as well as to gold. The recent contest has brought home to the people of this country the vital Importance of the monetary, question and the grave dangers which threaten the Industrial, commercial and llnan cial Interests of Oreat Britain so long ns It Is not settled on international lines. The unreasonable attitude of this country In the past, In the efforts to arrange a settlement. Is mainly re sponsible for the attempt Just witness ed to Induce the United States to act alone, and for tin-consequent unrest and disturbance in commercial uml finan cial circles. Therefore it is earnestly hoped that this country and the other great powers of Kurope will heartily co-operate with the I'nited States In their endeavor to place thu metallic money of the world uiion a permanent sound and scientific basis." AN EX-TREASURER ARRAIGNED. His Muddled Accounts Show a Short age ol 8.),000. Rrooklyn, N. Y Nov. li. Ex-county Treasurer Harry II. Adams, against whom an Indictment for grand larceny was found last week, was arraigned to day before Judge Hurd. A plea of not guilty, with leave to demur, was enter ed in his behalf and he was released un $5,000 bail. Mr. Adams was treasurer of Kings county for more than ten years, and when he retired a couple ivl years ago a shortage of about S!),0uO was dis covered In the accounts of the ollice. The ' various otllciul Investigations which ensued seemed to place the re sponsibility for the shortage on the loose and careless methods in vogue In thu ollice. ARMS FOR CUBA SEIZED.

STATUS OF THESENATE. The Political Completion of the Next llodya Matter of Doubt. New York, Nov. 6. The status of the United States senate after the 4th of March next is still a matter of doubt, Present Indications however, are that the Republicans will be compelled to seek recruits from those of their num ber who Joined the free silver forces last Fining or an alliance with sound money Democrats to accomplish legis lation affecting either financial or tariff subjects. The senate in the fifty-fifth congress will probably be composed as follows: Gold Republicans, 3S; gold Demo crats, 8; silver Republicans, 10: sliver Democrats, 25; Populists, B.
