NEW YORK STOCK MARKET. I NEW* YORK. S. pl. 7.?Tim bears got Hie upper band very decisively in the stock market today und'precipitated a more active scTTing movement than has yet occurred. There was speculative liquidation during the after-noon on a very large scale and offerings of long sj icks in some properties, whleli had eiements of weakness, were a material f.i? tor in the decline. Sugar occupied the centre of the stage all day. ![ was evident before the mar? ket opened that the bears had marked it for their own and everything that could be done in the way of discourag? ing reports of the company's business and disastrous competition in prospect was done through the medium of in? spired publications. The movement was opportune, as the recent bull move? ment in the stock was occompanied by j rumors of an increase in the dividend and the declaration today of only usual dividend brought heavy selling from disappointed holders. Torrents of slock were dislodged on the decline and all the usual devices were employed to give an appearance of inside selling. The fi? nal rally in the stock was only feeble. ? the last price being lil-4 below last night's closing. The demoralization in sugar affected the whole list, but es? pecially the industrials. s The railroad list held out 1 vnger against the downward course, especial? ly the granger's, led by St. Paul. Rail reads ultimately yielded. however, many of them showing losses between 1 and 2 points. Demand sterling fell fur? ther today to 45 1-4. This is considered to be easily within the gold imp..it point and gold is expected to come this week, a small consignment being an? nounced after the close of the marke' today. Atchtson. lo?

BOOKER RULED OUT Refused a Seat in the Town Council, MAYOR UNTIES A KNOT The Di-imrture of the first Mnryluml from Kurt ttlonroe "iVituxuHfil i>y Huu-Irc-ri* <>r t'eople. Other Alitttor* uf luKrcnt. The council of this town, on l;is( Tues? day night, added another chapter to its oli.-a.iy unenviable record by refusing to permit Oenrgo Winy Booker t.i re? sume his-soat in tin- chamber as the representative of the people af tin- Sec .1 waiil. A meeting, quietly called for the ostensible purpose of transact in? public business which should have been att.-mied to last week, was held in the municipal .-ourt-rootn. .Mayor Hope oc? cupying tla- chair. Hut three members of the body were present at Hi,, hour fixed for Hi,, exeroise-s to begin, and a delay of fifteen minutes ensued, during which Mr. Hooker made his appearance. As he is a member of tin- council, his scat not having been declared vacant because he had the courage to forsake his home and his business and enlist as a Ho-hlier in the war against Spain, he very properly concluded that his pres? ence would enable Mayor Hope to start the local law making machine' on sched. nie time. But Hint's where he was wrong. The admission of Mr. Hooker would have prevented Mr. Whiting and his friend Mr. Cuninngham from nam? ing a successor to Capt. O. S. Foster, who left hen* a week afro to reside in Baltimore. Finally Councilman Wil? liams, who uns detain, il by business engagements, entered the chamber and Mayor Hop,, promptly opened the meet? ing. The members then present were Segar Whiting, Andrew Williams. Simon Bryant and S. S. Cunningham. Mr. Booker having been ruled out. Williams and Bryant have conducted themselves with great credit since they be.-am.- members of the council. They have been prompt In their attendance up ei the meetings and have shown that they possess th.uitige to rise above pe.'ty ipilbbles instead of leaving tlie chamber in a pout because their col? leagues wire such arrant fools as to vote a?ailist their particular plans and pr .jei.'ts. These two men resolved to take no part "in the unjust and sense lots light against Mr. Hooker. On the other halid, they resolved to do their best io aid him in securing his rights Accordingly Councilman Williams ap? pealed from the decision of Mavor II ipe rW.-Invinfi- Mr. Banlrnr not a member of the council and upon the appeal a lengthy discussion, in which <'ity At? torney S. Gordon dimming participated took place. Mayor Hope had based his decision upon section ltl'l of the Code, in which it is stateil that no person hold? ing an otlice or post of profit, civil or military, under the government of the United States, shall be eligible for of lice under the State of Virginia. Tne succeedlng section 1K4, which evidently qualifies that just quoted. Mayor Hope ignored: The section in full is as fol? lows: "The preceding section shall not b.ins trued to prevent members of Congress from acting as justices. Vis.t ors of tin- University of Virginia, Virginia Military Institut.-, or from holding .,dices in tie- militia, or to exclude from otlice under thi- State. on account of a pen? sion from the I'nit.d States, a person to whom such pension lias been granted in consequence of a wound received in war. or to exclude from such otlice. post of trust or emolument militia of llcers or soldiers on account of the rec? ompense they may receive from the United Stales when called out into act? ual duty." Mr. dimming sensibly ar? gued that the two sections must lie taken together. His speech was ;m able presentation of tin- case, but was not strong enough to change tin- mini! of the mayor. When the vote upon the appeal was taken it was found that Williams and Bryant had voted to reverse Mayor Hope and that Messrs. Whiting and Cunning? ham had voted to sustain him. Thus tin- appeal was defeated. Mayor Hope, however, did not seem to In- aware of that fact, but proceeded to untie the supposed tangle by casting Iiis vote in support of his own decision. Mr. Booker says that he intends to carry the light into the courts and. if need lie. keep mi until lie reaches the highest tribunal in the land. Till-: FIRST MARYLAND G?NBT" Tin- Regiment Lett Yesterday for Mid dletown. Pa. The First Regiment Maryland Volun? teer Infantry. Colonel William 1*. Bane commanding, after a stay of three months at Port Monroe, left yesterday afternoon, by way of Cape Charles, for i'amp Mf-ade, Middletown. Pa. The men had been looking forward to their departure for more than a week, but did not know until Tuesday what day they would leave. They Were not sOrry to go. i in the contrary they rejoiced with exceeding great joy when Colonel Lane authorized tin- announcement that ibev would bid farewell to Virginia on Wednesday. -Two steamers were required to trans? port the soldiers to Cape Charles, the New York, which arrived at noon, sail? ing an hour later with half the regi? ment. At 2 o'cloc k the Old Point Coin fort steamed away with the other half. The embarkation was witnessed by an immense crowd of men, women and children. Tlu-re were a few people pres? ent who ought to have been at home, because of the slanderous remarks they bad made concerning the Maryland sol? diers in order to cover up the misdeeds of far wors? men. The volunteers In? dulged in noisy demonstrations of de? light as they marched aboard, but there was nothing in their conduct that was in the least reprehensible. Some be? came facetious and furnished amuse? ment for tltc spectators that gathered around them, while others essayed the role of amateur comedians and brought forth roars of laughter from scores of people One man; apparently weeping as if his heart would break, clung to the rear end of a street car. whll<5 a number of his comrades, desirous of re? lieving his distress, gathered around him and poured out words of consola? tion. But, like .Rachel wf,-ping for her children, he refused to be comforted. "O, Phoeby, Phoeby!" cried he. "O my mother Phoeby, how can I give thee up! O Phoeby, Phoeby, Phoeby!'' The regiment presented a very cted itable appearance as It marched to the dock and the sight was much enjoyed by those who witnessed it, not except? ing numbers of the county police force ?who were unable to resist the tempta lion t.. forsake their posts long enough to see tlie .Marylander? depart. While it cannot be denied ihai there are some bad men in Colonel Lane's command, it is a fact ?hieb the Daily Press takes pleasure in recording that it also em? braces hundreds of hightnticd und |. .1 Ished gentlemen. Numbers of them left Virginia with many regrets, not t e least of which was that any of the Sol? diers should have been ftivolved la the recent disgraceful proceedings at Phoe? bus. -While rliey do not attempt t.. c?n ceal tile shortcomings of the volunteers, they feel that the civil authorities have not been fair toward them. Itefore leaving Colonel Lane began a quiet investigation of the Phoebus riots. Numerous depositions, made under af? fidavit, were taken last week and for? warded to Washington, in a conversa? tion with the Daily Press correspondent Colonel I-uno said that these sworn statements would probably be ina.l' public in a short time. From other sources it was learned that a numlici- of them contain charges which, if substan? tiated in a civil court, would certainly augment the list of long term prison? ers in the Slate penitentiary. 11 is probable that after remaining a few weeks at i'amp Meade the r, glment will be sent to Porio Rico lo perform garrison duty. Mit. DOUGHTY STILL HERE. Tile Question is, Will tie Leave the County? Mr. Thomas A. Doughty, the Phoebus saloon keeper who was lined $".u in the County Court on Tuesday and given two weeks in which to leave the coun? ty, was still engaged in business at the old stand yesterday. lie was told that | Iiis line would have to lie paid immedi? ately, but lute lasl evening lie had fail? ed to show up with the money. There arc people who do not believe that Mr. Doughty will forsake Phoebus and liiere are some who even go so far as to declare their willingness to back their belief with a handsome wager. Ills place was indicted sonic time ago by a special grand Jury empaneled to e<>n sider violations ..f tic- law in Chesa? peake district. In addition to Hading him guilty of selling liquor on Sunday the grand jurors found that he was har? boring women for immoral purposes. Hence they declared him guilty of two offences and branded his establishment as a public nuisance. W ILL UK TRIED TODA Y. The case of .Mrs. Julia A. Lancer, in dieted several months ago for keeping a disorderly house, will, it was said last evening, lie taken up in the County' Court today. At the time the indict? ment was returned Mrs. Lancer's place of business was at the head of Mellen stieet. where she occupied a large- two story building. Since then her license has beet) transferred and she has not been known as Hie proprietress of a sa? loon, in view of this fact some of her friends claim that she cannot in- pros cuted and Mrs. Lancer herself |s quot? ed as saying that she has been advised to that effect. ROWE'S RARGAIN SA LR. The sale of Webb & Mears' assigned stock, which was purchased recently by Mr. .1. F. Rowe. has attracted throngs of buyers. Mr. Rowe believes in printer's ink and he knows how t i use it. That is the principal reason why Iiis sale has been so successful. The low prices have had something to ? lo with it. too. Several times since Mr. Rowe announced the sale in the adver? tising columns of the Daily Press he has been compelled to close his store on account of the big crowd of buyers. His advertisement appears on this page of the Daily Press. IftRTEF ITEMS. Mr. G. ('. Shield, who left here early last spring for his home near Richmond on account of ill health, has returned looking much improved. Lieutenant Smith, oT the navy, whose wit',- is ill with fev.-r at her home on King street, came down from New York yesterday. Mrs. Smith is said to be somewhat better. Little Mamie Davis is 111 at her home on Holt street with sore throat. The new drug store to be conducted by Mr. Oscar Williams in the West End will be opened this week. It was learned yesterday that the new hospital buildings on Mill Creek will be ready for occupancy ill about two weeks. Tin- patients now in the held hospital at Fort Monroe will be imme? diately transferred to the new quartets. Corporal George Wray Booker will leave today for Jacksonville to rejoin his company. He expects, however, to secure his discharge in a short time and return to Hamilton. The trolley party of the empolyees of the Newport News. Hamilton and old point Railway Company will take place this evening at fi o'clock. All the money received from the sale of tickets on account of the excursion will go into the treasury of the carmen's asso? ciation.
