H?x Mk - TICKET SCILVEBS' CASK TIZET.T.S. Ton Can't Test the Lrit n'hen tbe People HI Ileclltin to Prooecute. Bf The effort to test the new law ORalnst ticket H'Ji icalplnc, through tho arrest of Frederick M. B IiollcB of 397 Droadway, nt tho Instance of tho Bjn' ticket scalpers, fizzled beforo Justice Andrews ' B3 of the Supremo Court yesterday. Holies was Bj- arrested on complaint of Henry J. Brail ford, n BjV salesman In tho employ of Swectzer, Pembrook B.a- & Co. Bradford bouRht a ticket ti Norfolk, Vn., B,- from Holies. Holies, being arrested for making B.'i that sale, secured a writ of habeas corpus for j' his production in tho Supremo Court, where It B,v was oxpectcd the constitutionality of the new BC law would bo passed upon. Bf Abe O ruber and Iouls Marshall, attorneys B'f. for Holies and the ticket scalpers, wero In court Bf' with a mass of law capers and lawbooks to try ; and knock tho law into smithereens. Assistant Bp' District Attorney David Milllkcn, assigned to Bk- the case by District Attorney Olrott, camo Bj(;, empty handed.

Tho Court askc.1 Mr. Mllliken If he l doilred to proceed under tho circumstances, hut '..-' Mr. Mllliken paid tint, while his nttlce wns will- A inR to test tho law, they Uld not euro to do so in Mtq: such a ease. Tlio Judgo then dlscharuod Holies. Mr. Mllliken nf'erward said that the rase of 'V Bollcs would not test the law, as Holies had '. owned tbe ticket before the law went Into effect K& on Sept. 1, alth -iih ho sold It afterward. Tho '. now law could not affect ctlstinR contracts. v Tho law can be tested, he said, by tho arrest of J- man who buys and soils a ticket after Sept. 1, " CITY OFFICIALS EXAMINED.

They Rot htm insldo tho storo and displayed a coat worth, as they assured him, $13 of any man's m ncy.but which he could hare for $fl.ft). Then they spread out trousers shoes, hats, neckties, shirts, suspenders, and other par meats, and wcro about to proceed with tho work of transformation when Simpson R.itb cred up his own coat, tucked a puller-ln under each arm and walked out of tho place. On tho sidewalk lie told them that they wero under arrest. " Police ! police !" yelled the pullcrs-ln, seeing llu'ht uliead. "He's personating n olllccr I Po lice I" "I'll show you." said Simpson.

Sept. 13. The beRlnnlng of tho fortnightly settlement on tho London Stock Kxchnnge to-day disclosed the existence of a short interest in American se curities thut apparently nlarmcd some of thoso who were responsible for It. AccordlnR to co bio advices stocks were scarce for delivery; but the best evidence that KnRllsh operators are beginning to lose confidence In tho views thoy havo entortalncd and acted upon was found In extcnslva purchases In this market for London account. Thoso purchases, according to the most trustworthy Information, aggro gated about 50.000 shares, which Is the largest amount that foreign arbitrage houses havs bought In this market on any 0110 day for many weeks post. Tho heaviest purchases wero of St. Paul, Louisville and Nushvlllo, Union Pacific, an'd Southern Hallway Issuos. Tho Interest rates for carrying stocks through tho new ac count wero moderate, being 3$33 cent. The appearance of Loudon ns nn extensive buver was tho most important feature of tbo markot. It did not, howover, control tho course of prices because of extenslvo local selling to realize profits, which wns followed by a vigor ous attack upon tho markot by tho professional element. This demonstration ngalnst prices wns temporarily successful, because it com pelled the execution of n good many stop orders which had been given by lightly margined traders and by those who havo bought stocks upon tbo unsecured profits accruing on previous purchases. Tho market is unquestion ably healthier for the weeding out or reduction of this highly speculative clement. At tho ex treme declines a fair amount of good buying was discernible, and In consequenco tho list ehowod a disposition to rally that wns most pro nounced In the final trading. The attempts to depress prices w ero nttended by some very In teresting but entirely unsubBtantinted rumors. Among them was n report of Impending friction between tho United States and Spain and dis tressing rumors as to the extent of yellow fover at Southern points and tho probability of Its spreading. As a matter of fact, advices from tho South regarding tho appearance of yellow fever at a few points wero moro roassurlng than at any time slnoo tho epldemlo made Its npponr ance. Ilogardlng tho messago that our new rtlplomatlo representative takes to Madrid It is wall understood that his mission Is one of peace. Tho news of the day, other than the extensive repurchases of securities by London, consisted of slower market for sterling exchange nnd an excellent foreign trado statement for August. Tho statistics compiled by tho Treasury Depart ment show that the exports of four principal products of the United States for August were more than $11,500,000 Isrger than for the same month of last year. The virtual settlement of the bituminous coal miners' strike was another favorable development. A few stocks were ex ceptionally strong throughout, namely, Mis souri, Kansas and Texas preferred, Omaha common, Hrooklyn Rapid Transit, and North western, In tho late dealings Jersey Central and Reading Issues showed a decided tendency to advance. The most pronounced effects of tho reaction are to found In Atchison preferred, American Tobacco, Itocklsland, Tlurllugtoti and St. Paul, Manhattan Railway, Missouri Paclfto, National Lead, aqd u number of the less ao llro shares. The revival of activity In Brooklyn Rapid Transit at advancing prices lent color to reports that negotiations that have been pending for some time between the company and tbe management of the elevated system of Biooklyn for close trafflo aud operat ing arrangements are likely to be brought to a desirable conclusion. This view was also strengthened by sharp advances In Hrooklyn Rapid Transit 5s, Brooklyn Elevated lets, and Union Elevated lits. Tbe market us a whole was active and the dealings well distributed.
