NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
NEW YORK, Dec. 8.?Quotations in
I the stock market rose the greater part
of the day, but in the late dealings
lost part of the early advance, closing
easy, with slight gains in most stocks.
The Initial tendency was hesitating and
timid, perhaps sympathetically with
the irregular tone of London, which
was a moderate seller of Norfolk &
Western, Union Pacific and Eouisvil!
& Nashville. The grangers shook of
their recent lethargy and gave confi?
dence to the rest oT the list. America's
strong foreign trade situation, with its
probable effect on values, as interpreted
in a widely published optimistic state?
ment of an operator who usually con?
trols a large following, was not without
sentimental effect.
Reports of improvement In both the
soft and hard coal trades, and the pos
| sibillly of the enactment Into law of
j the anti-scalping bill were subjects of
j discussion and acted ax a tonic on the
railways. Moreover, important Inter?
ests were openly buyers of properties
with which they are identified, large
offerings being readily absorbed, and
the market weakened materially. In
the later dealings the grangers re?
ceded sympathetically with the weak
i ness in wheat and business slackened
until near the close, when there was
I evidence of weakness in a few rall
I ways, although Metropolitan and
Brooklyn Traction continued aggress?
ively strong.
Sugar was very active and strong
and rose four points without any new
developments in the property becoming
I generally known. Missouri Pacific's
[ cancelling of Its floating indebtedness
was assigned as a reason for Its rise,
dividend on the Mobie & Ohio be
g asserted as being not improbable,
I advanced the stock. The heaviness of
the Pacifies in the last hour was large
I ly responsible, together with realiza?
tions in other properties, for the re?
cession in values before the close.
The easy condition of the money
I market furnished abundant evidences
of the vast amount of capital seeking
investment, which is now being em?
ployed in the railroad miscellaneous
bond market. The reactions in this de?
partment were on a very extensive
[?ale and considerable improvement
was made in many issues. Total sales,
$6,430,000. Total sales of stocks amount
| ed to 542,000 hares.

The Body of an Old Soldier
Found in Mill Creek.
INQUEST UNNECESSARY
Howard Gould <i< ta Ills Oho co and Ill
Money. Urbit- Oil the Philippine
gjiii'Hti'<ui other Local
Matlcrn.
The body of an old man was found on
the shore of Mill Creek on the Phoe?
bus side yesterday, having drifted
ashore. The face was upturned to the
smiling skies, whose beauty he would
never appreciate again, for while his
body lay in the rippling waters, his
weary spirit had drifted placidly to the
shores of eternity. He had been dead
twenty-four hours or more.
The body was that of an old soldier
from the National Soldiers' Home, at
Hampton, and it had probably been in
the water since yesterday. Investiga
| tion developed the fact that his name
was Joseph C. Carson, of Williams
, port. Pa., and that he had been missing
from the Home for three days.
I Sheriff Curtis, to whom the ghastly
I find had been reported by Sergeant
i Wesley Cunningham, went at once to
I the scene. There were gathered there
1 Justice L. P. Furness, Officer Bushrod
' Giddings and several others. An ex
I amination of the body showed no marks
of violence, and as other circumstances
disproved any theory of foul play, the
conclusion was but natural that death
had not resulted from foul play.
The old man had perhaps not an
enemy in the world, unless he were his
j own enemy, and as $3.55 in currency
I were found upon the corpse, robbery'
could not have furnished a motive for
I a murder. Under these circumstances,
! an inquest was deemed unnecessary,
j and the corpse was turned over to the
? authorities of the Home, who placed it
I in a van and conveyed It to the
j morgue.
Today a little knot of comrades and a
minister will follow the plain coffin in
which the remains are encased to the
! National Cemetery, the service for the
dead will be read, and the body of Jo
i seph C. Carson will be lowered into the
narrow ceil and covered over with
clods. In time the green sodded mound
and the little marble slab will mark
j the spot where lies one of the nation's
soldiers.
GOULD GETS HIS GOLD.
In view of the recent stay of Mr.
Howard Gould and his beautiful bride
(formerly Miss Catherine Clemmons)
in this vicinity, it will doubtless be of
especial interest here to know that the
modest, courageous young brldegroojn.
will not forfeit his share of his father's
estate as a consequence of his marriage
in defiance of his family's wishes. The
will of the late Jay Gould provided that
if any of his sons wedded in opposition
to the wishes of a majority of the chil?
dren, he should forfeit a large share of
his portion of the paternal estate, the
amount forfeited to be divided among
the other children.
Despite the apparent certainty that
he would thereby forfeit $5,000,000,young
Gould, with a courage and devotion
universally commended, wedded the
woman of his choice, Miss Catherine
Clemmons, a beautiful actress to whom
he had long been deeply attached. The
Gould family did object strenuously,
but to no avail. The codicil of the will
could not be# enforced until all of the
children were of age. This time was
reached last Monday, when Frank, the
youngest son. reached his majority. At
the family council, which followed, it
was decided not to enforce the codicil,
' even though Howard's' wife was uncon?
genial as a member of the family. The
others were influenced in their deci?
sion by the fact that if they did enforce
the will they would profit by the broth?
er's punishment, and this they were un?
willing to do.
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Gould spent
some time off Old Point aboard their
palatial steam yacht Niagara recently,
i and visited Hampton several times.
SEMPLE-ALLEN NUPTIALS.
I Miss Virginia McKenzie Semple,
I daughter of Mr. Edward A. Semple. of
j Hampton, and Mr. William Rldg Allen,
of Philadelphia, were married at high
noon Wednesday at St. John's Episco?
pal church. Rev. C. B. Bryan officiat?
ing.
The chancel was beautifully deco?
rated with dowers and its furniture
! draped in white. In the background
j numerous wax candles burned. The
j auditorium was not lighted, save by
the sunlight streaming through the ca
: thcdral glass, flooding the large congre
1 gation with its fantastic lights and
shadows. As usual on wedding occa
sions, ladies predominated in the as
i semblage, among them being brides of
several seasons and some of them of
many summers, but the gentlemen were
liberally represented.
The bride entered the church escort
I ed by her father and was met at the
chancel by the bridegroom, who had
entered from the robing room, accom?
panied by his best man, Mr. W. N.
Morice, of Philadelphia. The bride?
groom received his bride, and the best
man and the bride's father took posi?
tions to right and left of the principles,
while Rev. C. B. Bryan pronounced the
service for the solemnization of matri?
mony, the organ playing a soft refrain
all the while. The bride was given away
by her father.
The bride was attired In a most be?
coming tailor-made gown of mode
broadcloth, with hat of velvet trimmed
in ostrich plumes. It was the opinion
of all her friends that she never looked
handsomer than on her wedding day.
The ceremony concluded, the wed?
ding party, relatives and Immediate
friends drove to the residence of the
, bride's father on Fulton street, where
a wedding luncheon was served. The
! luncheon was an elegant affair in menu
j and service, and consisted of nine
courses. Covers were laid for seven
I teen persons, among the guests present
j being Mrs. Allen and Miss Allen, who
came down from Philadelphia to attend
the wedding of son and brother.
Shortly after S o'clock Mr. and Mrs.
Allen left the residence amid the tra?
ditional shower of rice, and, dodging
the old shoe, entered carriages and j
', drove to Old Point, where they boarded
? the steamer for Washington. Thence
! they will go to Philadelphia and other
i northern and eastern cities, returning
I to Hampton before taking up their res- i
idence in the Quaker City.- - .
i There is a pretty little romance in !
! connection with the wedding. Mr. Ai
: len was a member of Battery A, of
i Philadelphia, the volunteer organization
made up of young collegians, athletes
and men distinguished in various voca?
tions, some of them men of wealth,. For
sometime the battery was stationed at
Newport News awaiting orders to move I
to the front, and it was at this time
that the young soldier met Miss Semple
and laid diligent siege to her heart. The
beleaguered fortress Anally capitulated
and the terms of surrender were finally
concluded in the marriage yesterday.
Mr. Morice. the best man. is well
known aa a former member of the great
University of Pennsylvania football
team.
WEDDED IN RICHMOND.
Mr. Thomas Athey Murray, of Hamp?
ton, was married at St. Mark's P.
E. church, Richmond, Wednesday,
to Miss Marlanna Newman, daughter of
Mrs. Octavla Newman. The nuptials
were celebrated at 6:15 P. M. in the
presence of a large company, the rector
of ihe church officiating. Mr. Murray
Is a well known pharmacist with T. S.
Howell, of this city, and Is very much
esteemed. His bride Is a charming
young woman of Richmond.
After the service Mr. and Mrs. Mur?
ray started on a wedding journey which
will comprise visits to Alexandria, Va..
Washington. D. C, New York and Bos?
ton. They will be at home at Rudd's
Cottage, Hampton, after December 15th.
THE PHILIPPINES ANNEXED.
The Y. M. C. A. Debating Club, or
rather the young men who propose to
formulate the organization, held an In?
formal meeting last night, and. after
taking steps to organize, discussed the
question of the annexation of the Phil?
ippine archipelago by the United
States. Messrs. S. Gordon Cummlng
and A. G. Irons advocated the affirma?
tive side of the question, and Messrs.
John Weymouth and A. H. Taylor the
negative, in brief. extemporaneous
speeches. The consideration of the
question In the time allotted was ne?
cessarily a cursory and superficial one,
but the debate was Interesting to the
participants, if not to the small au?
dience present. The judges to whom the
determination of the debate had been j
delegated decided In favor of the af?
firmative. Congress will be at once no?
tified of the decision for its guidance
in its own deliberations on the subject.
The time, subject and speakers for
the next debate have not yet been de?
termined.
EDWARDS NOW FREE.
J. T. Edwards, who shot John Patrick
in this county nearly a year ago in the
renewal of an old quarrel. Is now a
free man, having been released on De?
cember 7th from the Norfolk county
jail, in which he was incarcerated.
The case is more or less familiar to
the public. Edwards was twice tried,
receiving a verdict of guilty and his
punishment being fixed at one year In
the penitentiary. A new triai was se?
cured, and, as a result of this, a ver?
dict of guilty was returned and his pun?
ishment was fixed at two and one-half
years In the penitentiary. Executive
clemency, however, commuted the sen?
tence to eight months In jail, and Ed?
wards has just concluded this term. His
confinement was in the Norfolk county
jail.
NO BETTER TO BE HAD. ^
? G#eftar~WMtn?y:-tiH! funttiaH expert,
writing in Harper's Weekly of Decem?
ber 10th, of the Annapolis (Naval Acad?
emy) football team, says:
"They have not yet established the
graduate coaching system as West
Point has done, and must, therefore,
depend on one coach who this year has
been Richard Armstrong, than whom
there is none better."
Mr. Armstrong, who is now Surveyor
of Elizabeth City county, is well known
socially as well as in athletics.
