CLOSE WAS
VERYSTRONG
An Effective Turn Was Made
Against the Bears.
DEMAND WAS URGENT
Many Prominent Stocks Were Lifted
to a Leve! Two Points Higher Than
Monday's Close?Bond Market
was Irregular.
(By Annodateti Presi,)
NEW YORK, June 2.-The first effec?
tive turn iit-aliist the hear.?, which has
Leon ftceomellehed pince tho present pro
loiiRod declino In price?? sot In was ef?
fected to-dav. and that without? mil
Btrlklng development In the news to nffect
valuo.?. On the contrary, there was a
rlemornllzed Plump In a group of securi?
ties which wero i-yrnpatlietlr-illy affected
by Ihe speculative break-down In certain
Canadian market.??. It was the serenity
wllh which this break was rgemded and
It? failure to Induro nny further liquida?
tion In the market which Imnroened ?ho
bears with the advisability of protecting
their position by covering their abort
commitments. During the last hour ot
the trading Iho demand from this source
became somewhat, urgent, and Ht. Paul
and Missouri Pacific wore lift???! more
than two points over last nicht'? Inve?.
Rock Island, Southern Pacific, Atchl?
son, Loulsvlllo and Nashville, Wabash
preferred and e number ?d such Iniiu
entl.-i! stocks besides roso about two
points over last night In tho late ?leal
iiiKs and the market closed very active
and strong. Premonitory symptoms of
trouble have been visible In the Cana?
dian group of securities for some time and
seemed to have had their Inception In
tho rumored troubles of the Dominion
Coal and Iron Company and In an ex?
cess of speculation on the part of Ca
undlnn shareholders In those companies.
Yesterday's ehnrp docllnes In some of
theso stocks Induced demands for addi?
tional margin by New York broker* and
forced liquidation of some of these ac?
counts lo-dny. Besides thOHO disturbing
Influences the market had to face the
probability ot .shipments of gold on
Thursday of an aggregato of $4.00),'???, al?
though only part of this sum whs actual?
ly engaged to-dny. A slump In the Lon?
don copper market caused a drop of 2
points hi Amalgamated Copper and was
nn effective chock to the early harden?
ing tendency of thn market. London re?
sumed treding after th? holiday to-day
and was disposed to buy stocks here an
It was reported that London was short
of Americans. The further reports of
flood damage In tho West were without
notable effort, as the quieter tone of the
grain market gave ground for hope that
the harm to the crops had been exagger
nled.
New Rock Island R'b. newly dealt In,
rose more than a point over last night's
curb price, and there was a sharp ad?
vance In United Stnles .Stool second (Vs.

(Special to The Tlmes-Dlspatch.)
M.W YORK. June '.?.?Thn opening of the
Jtock market was irregular and generally lower.
InOiKtii-M to i>omo extent by Ida continued rain?
In Kan??? and the Mississippi Valley, and alno
by the vlgorou* raid on Canadian Pacific. The
lirgrr trader? ?ecmed willing t? follow the pre
Telline tendency and put out lome of tha itock
tnoy bad covered on Monday.
CANADIAN PACIF?Oi
Canadian Pacific wa? under pressure from the
opening, ??Id to he directed against weak bull
account? In both Toronto and Montreal. People
In touch -with the mere Important pool ?ay that
Ihe member? ot. it are not concerne?!/and are
roulent lo let Ihe market take-It? eourso. The
news upon the whole ha? boon good, but the
decline haa canned ? good deal of nervoustiesa
Binons foreign holders.
AMALGAMATED COPPER:
A. C. I*. declined in the early market In s-J-ji?
pathy with the weakness In Rio Tinto In L/3?
don and tbo further drop In the price of tbo
metal there. Tlio Lowlsobn lnterent la ?aid to
be bearish, both on Iho atock and tho metal.
HAIN AKKKCTS BTOCKB:
Thn continued rain? In the middle. Went af?
fested Atcblnon, Union Pacific and Missouri
Pacific to some e?teut at the opening, but Itock
Inland met with good support.
THE FIRST HOUR:
la spite nf Ihe break In Canadian Parlile
?nd kindred Issues, tho market In (he llrst hour
rallied very well. All tbo Grangera Improved,
?nil tbe disposition to cover Bhort?. which had
been somewhat In evidence among tbo more
active professional? on Monday, wa? very rnnrk
rd. London was a fair buyer, and thn Chicago
wire houses look stock In some quantity.
BUYING IN ROCK ISLAND;
The principal buying In Hock Island common
was by Moin tyro <t Marshall, hut Henry Clevres
it Company hnd ? good buying order In the 4
per cent. Intuii? Tb? former wn? taken as rep?
resenting Ihe covering of well-informed Chicago
nperstur? and Indicates il mora aggressive kind
nf support from the Moore? and tbelr friends
Hi,m tbo market: bas seen for somo time.
RIGAR RALLIED EASILY:
America? Sugnr rallied ennll.r. although the
street look the rf-guler dividen 1 for grained.
There Is some reason to think that people In
tonili with the truo conditions of thn sugar
trade havn been picking up stock recently. It la
doubted, however, If there will bn any serious
move much before the meeting of Congress.
THE SECOND HOUR:
Thn market In the second hour showed very
considerable strength. In spltu of an important
failure lo Toronto. It looked as If there, was
better nrganlicd support, although the early
rally wbb urn. maintained. In every caae. The
professional element wn? trading for an advance
on theory that tbe wont wae known.
.STANDARD OIL BUYING ST. PAUL:
Tho Standard Oil brokern were huyere nf Bt.
Paul, and H. Well and his following wert) taking
?tock around the room. It looked as if the
Waldorf crowd had changed over to tho bug
lidi,
20PPER NOTICEABLY WEAK:
Amalgamated Copper waa noticeably weak on
ihn reduction In the trade price of th? metal
ind tbe heavy selling of Rio Tinto? in London
for Paris account. Trade Interest? bere were
nrit hopeful nf maintaining the price of the
metal at tlin presrnt level, lu view of tbe severo
declluo In London.
BORROWING DEMAND:
There was ou early borrowing demand for
Missouri Pacific, Union Pacific and St. Paul and
Atchlson, lu spite of tbe rather harder money
rato, while Cnuudlon Pacltlo waa very scarce
at 1 per ceut.

AFTERNOON TRA?ING:
In thn early afternoon the market rallied
well, end In spite of ihn break In stocks, af?
fected by the Toronto failure, the buying was
generally good. Tho transfer of thn energy of
Importent speculnftirs to the long sido of the
account was a noticeable feature.
STHKNGTH IN STEEL PFD. : . I
The strength In l.'nltert States Steel preferred ;
:ss an Important feature In thn day's trading.
The greater willingness to convert Into boils
reduces thn supply materially, and tbe Kin
?Towd i?e*'nis to Indicate that the stock has
been oversold. Specialists consider that tho pre- i
ferrod at least Is very well distributed.
BANKERS LARGE BUYERS.
Tbo bankers mostly closely Identified with
Union Pacific and Pennsylvania rosds make no
eectct thai tbey have been large buyers of
Union Pacific, (Southern Pacific end Baltimore
and Ohio In tbo recent past.
??? CANADIAN PACIFIC POOL?
Tbe Canadian Pacific pool proper, which con
slats of at leant three member? of the compnny'?
strong flnniidnl force, and two other of thn
most Important names In Ca?ad?, was an ag?
gressive buyer of Canadian Pacific alter the an?
nouncement of the Monterai failure. The r-rarclty
of thn stock In the losn crowd materially helped
tbo Improvement.
??? CLOSE:
The day's rslly was well maintained up to
h? close, and the professional element generally
showed a more bullish temper than for a very
long time past. The Woldorf-Astorla crowd,
seemed to have turned round, and tbe email
traders found their profit-taking ?alea i; ?*?r*i
up their book? before the close very readily
taken. .

Under these Influences tho new crop w?? ad?

DR. HATCHER
IS ACCUSED
Brother Preacher Says He
Got His Overcoat.
DOCTOR HAS CONFESSED
Plead? Guilty to Having Taken the Coat
but Says It was a Mistake.
Matter Has Been Com?
promised.
"Is Dr. Hatcher gullty?"
The friends of Dr. Hatcher were sur?
prised and nlarmed yesterday to see at
the head of a long article In a well known
Baptist paper of the South the words
quoted abovo, and there at once arose
the apprehensive feeling; that the brethren
on the outside had'at last caught up
with Dr. Hatcher onttjlefeoteU him In one
of his guilty acts. Perusal of tlio article
served In no way to relieve the distressed
minds of these anxious friends. In fact,
tholr worst fears wore confirmed, for
the paper continued as follows;
"Dr. William B. Hatoher, the univer?
sally admired and beloved, hurriedly, left ;
the convention (Southern Baptist) on Sat?
urday, taking with him my good coat and
leaving his old one.Instead. (The writer
of the article, by ?the'way, Is tho.Rev.
P. T. Hale, D. D? a minister of Owens
boro, Ky., In good Standing.) This woro
an ominous appearafl??s; '.'-' And inn I
not establish Dr. Hatcher's guilt, with ar?
guments many, and as crushlngly cogent
as the ratiocination with which wo some?
times prove the culpability and some?
times Impugn the motives of the breth?
ren and our fellow-mortals? This looks
suspicious."
PURLOINED HIS COAT.
Proceeding, Dr. Hale showed In a col?
umn and a half and more that Dr.
Hatoher had deliberately and wilfully
purloined his coat at the recent meeting
of the Southern iBaptlst Convention. Dr.
Hatoher. says the writer, was nlone In his
room when he packed up, nnel It Is now
recalled that ha packed his grip so full
that he waa unable to close it, and It re?
quired the combined efforts of two men
of valor to fasten it. It Is further re
oal?e? that th? Doctor, In. his abrupt
departure, neglected to shake hands with
his grieved room-mates. *vVhat other
possessions of the brethren the Doctor
carried off oannot yet be determined,
as there were brethren from nearly all
of the originally seceding States who
slept around three sides of that room and
bathed by squads and relays therein.
' The Doctor, It Is alleged and substan?
tially proven, fled precipitately with his
rich booty, and stopped not until he
reached Greenwood. S. C., and further
Investigation reveals tho fact that Dr.
Harry Bagby. of that city, formerly of
Richmond, was a partner In his flight,
and a likely accomplice in the whole
wretched affair. The question has arisen
why the fugitive ventured to stop In
South Carolina. The reason assigned
bears the stamp of great probability. Evi?
dently he believed that Governor Sweeney
would not extradite him, because he Is
an Intimate of Colonel'Hoyt's; while he
knew that Governor Andrew J. Monta?
gue, of A'irglnla, being a Baptist, know?
ing him. and zealous, would cheerfully
co-operate In any.scheme for his removal
from Virginia.
HTO CON1FESSBS.
In the course of his further remarks
upon this very surprising affair. Dr.
Hule makes mention of a letter he hns
lust received from Dr. Hatcher. In which
the well known minister confesses all,
hut declares It was a mistake. This ex?
cuse the Owensboro minister refuses to
accept, since "it evidently comes after
tho Doctor hnd an opportunity to try on
the coat and tn examine It nt his leisure,
and evidently had discovered that thero
was a patch of extensive area upon the
southern part of tho eastern hemisphere
thereof. . . . Hitherto we have had Im?
plicit faith In the genial Doctor, bul
henceforth we shall look with a dubious
eye upon all advocates of boards nnd
lenders of the organized work nf the con?
vention. ? look fnr many letters of
thanks from distinguished brethren for
making thin exposure of this leader In our
work."
By way of conclusion. Pr. Hale de?
clares that he hopes tor-prevent the mat?
ter from getting any further?Into the
courts, for Instance, where ho icnulil
doubtless make a good case ngultist Dr.
Mntelier. Ho hns decided to compromise,
Pr. HatcHer agreeing tn come to Owons
bnro to sland trial, bo ills prisoner for
two weeks, nnd to aid him In a series of
meetings. This is the best he can get
out of him; he hns no money, being a
preacher. ,
