' $ eighteen months, broke oat with active hostlll- ' ; ?; J tie again during the early hour of yesterday . t 6 morning. When the first trolley franchises were 1 ' i . f granted on Btaten Island the local authorities ( derln4 a schema for common trackage In the j ! L S Ttdnlty of tho SU George Ferry and at other i I 'I point where It was deemed advisable to provide f L against a multiplicity of track. One of these J ' lV" common trackage point wa on Columbia I j J street, at West Brighton, where It wa proposed V ' that the Staten Island Klectrlo Company should i I I 'fc 1 hare tho right to use the Midland Company' 1 ' t',( tracks for 2,000 feet. ' - J Tho Klectrlo Company laid It track to both ; end of tho track held by the Midland company, I . ' r but the Midland Company refused to sign any E , contract which gave the Klectrlo Company the , ' ; ' f use of that portion of the road. Tho Klectrlo If ComDany ha had a heavy feed wire running i ' : - throutfh the disputed blocks for more than a i . ;' l i year, but ha not operated the disconnected t ! E J S sections of road. In some of the oft-recurring i j , ' ! exigencies the Klectrlo Company determined to f J f , ',' put theso part of It lino In operation. f A ', j Superintendent Brophy telephoned to some f ' ! t one at the Midland Company' offlce and ob- '. j ; J talned, he says, permission to run a car over the i ' !' ' Midland line from the foot of Broadway at West j I J" i Brighton to the disconnected section of track on , I" , Brooks avenue which It was proposed to begin J j" to operate When he attempted to pull a car , jf; ) over to the Midland tracks at Broadway, shortly fi after midnight, ho was met by Midland em , 3 ' ployees, who refused to permit the car to be j f ' placed on that company's line. Then tho car was taken over tho Klectrlo Company's own I 1 tracks up Columbia street to the point where the W 2 Midland tracks turn Into that street from Cas- W K w l tleton avenue, and again horses were attached t at :. to the car to drag it along the roadway to tho W I t u tracks on Ilrooka avenue, 2,000 feet distant. I- S s I There the Klectrlo force again encountered a It' iCi ' Midland forco with a Midland trolley car. As Mi f the horaee started with the Klectrlo Companv'a H ll' J- ' car It overlapped the Midland tracks, and the II t .H: " ; Midland cr was run Into position to prevent Its M 1 passage. In doing this the Midland car was nin III 7 Hi -l i Into tho other car, but the only damage was tho HIK ' ' ' breaking of tho step on the side of the Klectrlo Ban Ut Company's car. IK S - Tho street was so effectually blocked by the lift IB , Midland Company that the Klectrlo force gave ami- a up the attempt to put a trolley car on Brooks IIP' Bf avenue. Tho Electric feed-wire along thedls- II!' If puted 2,000 feet was cut down by the Midland III Ht i force under tho direction of W. 0. Rockwell, tho Hi' r ' general manager of the Midland Company. It Q I ' Is contended that tho wire was live, and that as if l the severed ends fell Into the street there was a I' j great electrical display. This Is denied by Mr. ' J itockwell. who admits cutting down the wire, WKj I , but declares that It had never been used to carry If an electric current. Mr. Rockwell also say tho HI. I collision of the cars was an accident. I U After abandoning the uttemvt to get a trolley I' ' ' car through to Brooks avenue, the Electric Com K I ' pany's force hauled an old horse car to Brooks i ' avenue through side streets and put that In op Ill ( eratlon. The trolley car Is operated at the W, ' northern end of Columbia street. MM, i Superintendent Bronhy of the Klectrlo Com- j - pany went before Justice Acker at hew Q) i i. Brighton early yesterday morning and made a W j ' complaint against General Manager Rockwell. ) t s charging him with a violation of section G35 of Hi, a .' the Penal Code, in cutting a live wire and ob- ) n stmctlng the operation of a railroad. The pen- 1 S ally Is ten years In State prison. Mr. Rockwell 1 SI gate bail to appear for examination on Thurs- Baff 55 ) Meanwhile the Klectrlo forces attempted to re- VV 8 place the wire In Columbia street, but the wire If 8 was again cut by Frank lie Bar, foreman of the MM 1 , " Midland Company. The Klectrlo Company's a i force hod turned a current into the wire, and as mm (S tho ends fell a woman who was passing received K II a slight shock, and Policeman Bheenan, who MU' tj - was on duty to prevent any breach of the peace, H i" V' w" forcod to make some lively moves to get U II ' l" away from the wire. Tho woman was attended MMf H r by Dr. Callahan, but as her Injuries were not ) 9, serious she refused to give her name. i Ilv Policeman Sheehan arrested Le Bar, and he all. 11' was takon before Justice Mullen at Port Rich- i t mond, whoheldhlmfor examination on Wednes- fl H day. This ended the hostilities for the day, but at m Mr. Rockwell made a complaint before Justice l ffi i Acker charging Mr. Brophy with obstructing III H ? the public streets and attempting to main- Mml ft' i tain the wires of bis company on Columbia IN If i ', street.

Although the dealings In stocks were as ex tensive as on any day since the present upward movement began, the net fluctuations, except ln a few inactive shares, were comparatively slight. The strength of the market on Saturday led many operators to believe that a buying movement from outside of the Street might be stimulated over Sunday, and they wero there fore prepared to sell for both accounts to supply the expected demand. They proceeded upon the theory, which has frequently proved correct here tofore, that ln the present narrow condition of the market profits may be secured by selling stocks at the beginning of a week following a similar period within which general and material ad vances have taken place. That theory was not entirely substantiated to-day, and the indica tions are that it would have been totally mis leading had not a good deal of capital been made of reports from the West of damage to the grow ing crops by frost. The circulation of those re ports was accompanied by effective selling of all of the Granger stocks, except Rock Island, which closed fractionally higher than on Satur day. The believers ln a reaction also encoun tered obstacles ln Sugar Refining. Manhattan Railway, the Northern Paciflo securities, Atchi son preferred. Louisville and Nashville, and a number of others that were dealt ln less exten sively. The speculation ln Sngar Refining was influ enced by advices from Washington foreshadow ing a compromise between the House and Senate sugar schedules. Besides, the certainty that the usual quarterly dividends upon both classes of Sugar Refining stock will be declared this week encouraged operations on the long side. A net advance of nearly 2 points ln Manhattan Rail way resulted largely from covering of shorts in expectation of the declaration of the usual quar terly dividend to-morrow, which. It Is cur rently reported, has been fully earned, partly by reason of the unusual traffic receipts of the company on the day of tho Grant pxrade. There appeared to be some realizing ln Chicago Gas. but the falling off ln the volume of trading ln the certificates Indicated that it was not of a significant character. As ln the case of the Granger stocks, the selling was evidently well taken and resulted in only a small fractional decline. The advance in Northern Pacific securi ties was seemingly due to the favarable crop prospects In the Northwest and the Improve ment ln the traffic returns of all of the trunk lines running west and north from Chicago to the Paciflo coast. As bearing directly upon the earnings of those roads, it is to be noted that the (liveries of grain at Chicago last week were the largest of the year, aggregating over 8,000.000 bushels, an Increase of over 2,000,000 bushels as compared with the previous week and with the corresponding week of last year. A more liberal movement of general merchan dise from distributing centres is also reported. Of the less active stocks Oregon Railroad and Navigation preferred enjoyed a net gain of 3 points on prospects that a dividend may be de clared in tho near future, and Third Avenue Railroad sold ln unusually large amounts at ma terial advances over the last previous sale, pre sumably in expectation of a decision by the Court of Appeals favorable to the company in the litigation affecting its title to the so-called Klngsbrige Extension. There will be no exports of specie to-morrow, and the ruling rates for exchange indicate that none Is likely to be made ln the near future. As business was entirely suspended ln London to day on account of the holiday, there was no trading In securities for European account. Orders from that side to-morrow will probably be Influenced by the condition of affairs shown by the making up for the fortnightly settlement which begins to-morrow. The closing was, in the main, strong, with the majority of the list showing an improvement upon the final prices of Saturday.
