MUCH BETTER FEELING PREVAILS

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. While Jeff
Jackson, John Adams, William Taylor
and Robert Allison, negro laborers, were
working at a sugar cane mill near Wild
Fork, Monroe county, last night, they
were fired upon from the darkness by
unknown persons. All but Taylor were
instantly killed. He will die.
It i supposed to have been done by a
gang of white caps, who have been en
gaged In running all negroes out of that
section.
New ships for the japs.
Contracts Tor Crniier Closed with
the Cramp and Union Work.
Washington, Nov. (. It la announeed
that the Japanese government has
finally closed the contracts with the
Cramp shipbuilding company, Philadel
phia, and the Union Iron Works. 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.
Danish Authorities Will Confiscate
the Kutv Material.
Curarua, Nov. 5. A large consign
ment of arms and ammunitions intend
ed for the Cuhan insurgents has beep
seized here by the Danish Oovernment,
and will be conllscateil. The material
was brought by the brig Curacou from
New York, and was Intended to be
transhipped by another vessel. An at
tempt was made, it is claimed, to land
the stuff off the coast of Cuba, but the
effort was a failure.
The boxes have on them, It is said,
the mark of Hurt ram llros.. New York
merchants, und were shipped ns
chloride of lime and caustic soda. The
consignees refuse to accept the ship
ment. There is In the lot nearly 100
boxes of arms and ammunition.
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

Captured by Rebels.
Havana, Nov. 5. Gen. Gonzales Mu
noz reports that his command has had
an engagement with the rebels under

bats, In which Gen. Inclan assisted
Oen. Munoz. The troops captured and
burned the rebel camps. They ulso cap
tured a quantity of arms and a num
ber of cattle. The losses of the rebels
is not given, but are believed to have
been heavy. The Spaniards lost two
killed and a captain, a lieutenant and
22 privates wounded.
' In the vase of Louis Someillan, an
American citizen, who is charged with
rebellion the attorney general today
asked that he be sentenced to life Im
prisonment in chains. The representa

GOLD POURING IN.
Storage Capacity of the Sub-Treasury
Ofiices Insufficient to Accommo
date the Hoarded Metal.
Washington, Nov. n. More gold Is
pouting into severul of the sub-treasury
ofllces than the olllces have storage
capacity for or have legal tender cur

hus been brought out of safe deposit
vaults bv the owners who huve been
paying storage charges upon It. Hal
tiniore and New York also had large
deposits of gold, but how much was
deposited at New York could not be
staled that the treasury as the usual
dully telegram had not been received
when the department dosed. Nothing
had been heard from western points.
In respect to gyld deposits, the treas
ury sent out this letter today to the
nine assistant treasurers:
Treasury Department, OIHce of the Treas
urer. Washington, D. C. Nov. 5, ISiM.
