MARKET IS EXCEEDINGLY QUIET
Railroads and Mercantile Industries
All Report Prosperity But the
Reapers In Wall Street Have Poor
Pickings These Days.
?f (By Associated PrcBB.)
NEW YORK, July 9.?Pressure be?
ing oft the Block market today there
was slight railing tendency. This
failed to attract tiny demand for
stocks or to revive any attempt to
get prices higher. The most notable
consequence of this state of affaire
was the shrinkage in the volume of
the speculation the day's aggregate
transaction falling to a smaller figure
than for many weeks past. I
Immediate developments played
but a small part in the action or the
market, lint the general outlook on
the future was kept in consideration,
especially on the side of the money
market. The Saturday bank state?
ment with the surplus showing re?
duced to $6,465.075 had its continu?
ing effeet In chilling speculative en?
thusiasm.
Railroad earnings und traffic, re?
ports, mercantile advices, trade and
Industrial activity and other Indica?
tions of lindrmlnlshed general pros?
perity gave rise to repetition of a
well known Wall Street argument ad?
vanced in times of tight, money for?
mulated in the term "too much pros?
perity.''
The constant fluctuations of the
day in tlie stock market reflected the
shifting operations of room traders.
The ( losing was firm at recovery but.
not far from last week's level, Re?
iterated reports of the floating of St.
Paul loan .in Paris, which had some
semblance of authority helped to the
late recovery;

WHO ARE THE BEST DRESSED.
! Opinion on the Other Side Ranks
Americans Ahead of Europeans.
The question as to which nation is
the best dressed is raised by an artic?
le In La Revue entitled "Moi cantill
Ismo et Esthctlquo," by M. Albert
Sell hit z, who awards the palm to
?Americans over English people or
t.ose of any other country.
"Americans, as n rule, dress far bet?
ter and more Smartly than Euro?
peans," he says. "Side by side with
tile latter they Invariably have I he
appearance of being turned out spick
and span. An American who had
landed at Hornburg on his first Euro?
pean t'Mir told us how surprised
he had been to notice that 'only poor
people live in Europe.'"
' Mr. Frederick Bosworth, the New
I HtirllnKton street court costumier and
tailor, informed a Dally Mall represen?
tative yesterday that, comparing the
American business men nnd women,
who go every morning to the city and
t return every evening, with our Lon-I
don crowds, the former are decidedly I
neater in nppcarance.
I "The American woman too, shows
? more daintiness, and what I might
, call sense of fitness in choice of ma?
terial, making up. nnd way of display
ling it to the very best ndvantng<\
I Englishwomen, even of lim most cul?
tural classes, do not show that Invaria?
ble excellent, taste in dress which at
? most every American woman shows.
American indies often pay as much
for a cotton dress with dainty Alsatian
lace edgings and trlmmlncs as is giv?
en for n court costume of as much as
$200 nnd $250.
A member of the firm of Messrs.
Skinner At Grant, the well-known Re?
gent street tailors, -who had spent
some years in the United Stntes, said
that there was no question that Amer?
ican people men as well as women,
were well dressed, but "not so well
dressed ?s the members of our Ens
! lisb upper classes, that is, society pee
' pie."
Another famous West End tailor
put the mntter thus: "No English?
man orders his clothes from America:
few Americans who can afford it anil
who prize style, quality, and fit, order
their clothes anywhere else but !n
I London. The extent of this trans-At
I lantic. trade has already been pointed
out, and I am within the mark in sav?
ing that the very existence of some "if
our most famous firms In West Lon?
don lienends upon this American cus?
tom. The cultured American is prob?
ably as well-dressed In nil respects PS
any man In Europe, but in snylng thlit
wo arc only paying ourselves n com?
pliment, for almost without exception
the clothes come from London."

Waldorf Astor and American Bride
Reach New York.
THEY Will 60 FIRST TO MAINE
Man Who Married Mrs. Shaw, Falls
to Answer When Asked If He Is to
Remain In Thin Country to Manage
Father's Estate.
NEW YORK. July 9.?Willdorf Astor
and Ids American bride, who was Mrs.
Nannie Lnnghorhe Shaw, wero imeson
gors on the Willie Star stonnwhlp Cel?
tic, which reached her pier yesterday
after lying nil night at anchor off
Quarantine. Others on board were
Mr. and Mrs. .1. IMorpont Morgan. Jr.,
Rev. D. Parker Morgan, D. D.. rector
of tlie Church of the Heavenly Rest,
and Mrs. Morgan.
Considerable Interest centered in the
Astors all the way over, and Mrs. As?
tor. known as the beautiful Mrs. Shaw
j before her recent marriage, was much
[admired. Mr. and Mrs. Astor and Mr.
|and Mrs. J. P. Morgan. Jr.. occupied
seals at the same tnble. The party
kept pretty much to themselves all
tlie wny over.
After young Astor had snlled from
I the other side, which was on Juno 30,
It was announced that his father, Wil?
liam Waldorf Astor. of Cllvenden, had
been taken 111 and removed to Cllven?
den from London. Young Astor said
today that his father could not be very
111 else he would have heard of II by
wireless. "Really," he continued, "he
did have a slight attack of the gout,
but that is all."
Young Astor was asked if it were
true that In the future he would spend
the greater part of his time in this
country looking after his father's es
; tntes hero. ? ?*">J *
"Do you tiling that my personal af?
fairs are really so Important to tlie
public ns nil that?" asked the young
man. "f don't see how they can be;
I am only a plain citizen."
"Are yon an American citizen or n
British citizen?"
Young Astor smiled and said:
I am residing In England.
"We are over here for the summer,"
he continued, "nnd will spend our
time in Maine and lu Virginia. First,
we will go lo Maine, nnd then visit
Mrs. Astor's father. I do not know
that wo will go to Newport. We have
no intention of doing so nt present."
QUESTION OF JUDISDICTION.
Power of Civil Courts Over Persons
Arrested on Military Reservations.
WASHINOTON, D. C, July !>.?
The War Department has now on hand
another Interesting case Involving the
jurisdiction of civil courts over per?
sons committing offences on a military
reservation.
A soldier of the Porto Klean pro vis-]
inrial regiment, stationed at Sau Juan
a sentry, shot, and killed a trespasser
on the military reservation. The In?
sular court undertook to Investigate
the cast!, but the commanding officer
of the post denied Its right to serve
a process on the reservation, claiming
that it was exclusively under the juris?
diction or (he United States District
Court. Meanwhile the soldier win
Irled nnd acquitted by court-martial.
Subsequent correspondence between
the War and Navy departments re?
vealed the fact that the United States
and insular courts of the island took
different views as to tlie right to try
persons for crimes committed on Unit?
ed States military reservations.
In order to settle this Important
question, (he commanding officer of
tlie post in San Juan has now been
Instructed to permit the aery ice of
process to the point of placing the ac?
cused soldier under arrest, and tlie
Department of Justice has been re?
quested to direct tlie United States
District Attorney for Porto Rico to sue
out a writ of haheas corpus'directed
against the district court, thus bring?
ing tlie matter before the United
States court. An appeal from Its find?
ings can then bo taken by either party
to the United States Supremo Court.
GET HIPPODROME LEASE.

M. C. Anderson.
l?ee and J. J. Sintbert and M. C. An?
derson yesterday leased the Hippo?
drome for a term of years. The trans?
action turning the mammoth play?
house over to the Independent manag?
ers was consummated In the office of
the United States Realty Company.
John W. dates. H. S. Block and Wil?

The Shuberts and Mr. Anderson will
take Immediate possession and begin
preparations for next season. They
will open the Hippodrome on Septem?
ber ::. Labor Day, with a spectacle that

WOMtN HOTEL CLERKS.

Womnn Trnvrler.
In most European hotel* In lite small?
er places tin! visitor Is met nt the desk
by ii womnn instead of by (lie pcrfuiie
lory clerk so familiar to Americans nt
borne. 1 think this In because a wo?
man can lie more successful In the arl
of common, everyday robbery. One
doesn't like to argue about the prices
with a sweet, smiling little lady, who
seems to be exerting herself to an ex?
treme degree to scute one's comfort
ami happiness, but If one happens to
lie making short stops here ami there It
la wise to put away suavity f>r the
time tiring to the extent at least of an
occasional mild protestation.
When mndnuie smiles benignly ami
tells you that the room you hnvc cllOHCtt,
With everything Included, will be 'JO
francs a day It Is well to remember
that "everything Included" doesn't In
cluilo everything by any hienns. There
are a hundred mid one little "%\iras,"
like tea, after dinner coffee, coffee and
rolls In your room In the morning and
such like luxuries, to say nothing of
service, which must be paid for llrst
band If It Is to be enjoyed ill nil. Mo
nt 2(> francs nintlnine Is probably tak?
ing chances against a protest and will
bo enormously pleased with herself If
none is forthcoming. It is the sumo all
up and down llu> scale of prices, but I
pappose those who can afford to go up
the scale never care particularly.?

(lie nralnnnn Snl??li?i?re.
India Is the home of the Coccus Inc
cti. Hie Insects that produce the resin?
ous substance known as shellac. The
females puncture the twigs of several
different kinds of trees, among them
the tin. the biliar ami Uli? bitten, anil the
twigs become Ineruslod with n hard,
nearly trun*|>nrent, reddish, resinous
substance that serves the double pur?
pose of protecting (be eggs und filially
furnishing food for the young Insects.
The IncriiHlcd twigs are broken from
the trees before the young Insects cs
enpe iind are thoroughly dried In the
Hiin. These dried twigs are called
"stick-lac," and from them shellac and
n dye antilogous Iq cochineal are pre?
pared. "Seed-lac" Is ihe resinous con?
cretion sopa rated from the twigs,
coarsely pounded and triturated with
water In a mortar, by which nearly nil
of the coloring matter Is removed,
Tn prepare shellac the seed-lac Is put
Into oblong cotton cloth bags nml
wnruioil over a charcoal tire. When the
rosin begins to melt the huga are twist?
ed, mill the pure, (dear rosin 1m allowed
to How over fig wood pltiuk? or the
smooth stems nf the banyan tree and
cools In the thin plates or shells which
constitute shellac.

FIGHTING FISH.
Peonllnr Anlmnla Tlia4 Arn Pnnnil
Only In Hlnmeiie IVntrr?,
A favorite recreation In Slain In
watching the lighting Dsli, a species of
fish found in the waters of no other
country. The fish cannot llvo In unity,
and If two are placed In n bowl they
will Instnutly engage In a struggle "to
the rtenth."
It Is no uiiusnnl thing to see In the
streets of Slnm crowds of natives chut
tcrlug and gesticulating around a bowl
containing a number of these fish,
which they bet on In the snipe wny ns
more civilized people do on race horses.
Intense excitement relgus nniong the
natlves'an they watch tho fish fighting
within the bowl.
These peculiarly quarrelsome fish are
very similar to the common pike In np
penrance, with the exception thnl they
nre not In the possession of gills. Their
fins, too. are remarkably sharp, and
these they use with terrible effect upon
one another. Blood 007.es from their
sides, and yet they persist In fighting
until perhaps only two aro left nllve,
nnd then the survivors turn on one an?
other until only one In left out of per?
haps a dozen placed In the tub. '
Although the fighting fish nre ex?
ceptionally good to eat, the mnjorlty of
natives esteem them only for their
fighting propensities, which affords
them amusement and excitement every
dnv.
