FIRE Two Disastrous Conflagrations Within One Week. The Fire Ih Believed to Be of In cendlary Origin and Clone In quiry Will Be Made. Another disastrous fire occurred at the navy yard yesterduy afternoon. Strangely cuougu the building, Avnicli was partially burned, is the one temporarily occupied by the paymaster, or what is known us tne general storekeeper's offire, which was the same department -which fcuffcrcd the .loss of its quarter by fire last Thursday There are strong suspicions that both fires were of incendiary origin, and the most rigid inquiry will be made by the navy yard ofricials into the matter. Shortly artei 4 o'clock yesterday nrter noea a dense volume of smoke was dis covered pouring from the upper windows and from beneath the roof. A lia8t,,'in vestigation showed that the entire attic was on fire, and an alarm was turned In from box 5t!8 for the department. At the same time lines or hose kept in that andndjoiulng buildings were attached to the hydrants, and it was not long be fore three streams ot water had been turned upon the flames The department was quick to respond, and m a tliort time the fire was under control. The greater portion of the furni ture and other goods In the building was gotten out safely, to that the principal damage was to the structure itself. The building "was one of the oldest in tlie yard, having been constructed about 1810. For a long time it hns been prin cipally occupied by the seamen gunnerb, -and was always known as their quartets. About three months ago the old store joom, No. 1, was filled up for them at tlie time the general storekeepers offire was icmoved from thcie into the building which burned last week. The low er floor was used as a sort of plumber's hop, while the second floor and the dormitory were temporarily fitted up for the gen eral storekeeper and the examining boards. There was practically nothing in the little, low attic, and It is regarded as impossible that the fire could have btarted there accidentally. Another strange feature is the fact that the origin was almost identically tlie same as that of last week, which also started under similar ciicunistances in the attic and In the tame department of the Navy. The total loss it Is believed "will not be over $3,000, mainly to the building. TROLLEY DODGERS BEATEN. The Heavy Hitting Quakers Keep Up Their Vast l'nee. Philadelphia, April 29.

It was a splendid exhibition of the national game, and was greatly eiijoyeii by 100 or more spectators who witnessed it.

The boys Trotn Richmond put up un ex cellent game, and won" by their clock like team work. They are also very handy witli ttie bat, and managed to hit the ball hard and safe at critical points in the game. The home team, ivhilc showing lack of team work, failed to connect with Elyson's curves, except on two occasions, until the sixth inning. In the seventh inning alter two hands wereoutF.irnham drew abase on balls, stole second and was sent across the plate by Greene's long uiivc to right field Later Greene was caught napping at third.

Attempts that are made in certain quarters to establish a connection between thg present operations and fluctuations ou thestoci'exchangeand developments of general Interest, such as the progress of events in the Levant, and the international movements of money, are ridiculous, for it muKt tiecbvioui to all observers of the maifcet Upit dealings are restiicted to the imaMt, kind of pro fessional traders. They may devote a good deal of thought Ssx current happen ings orimportance.buttheiipcratlousbafted upon their conclusions barely cau-e ripples upon the surface of Jlje market Those who hold large amounts of securities and the public outride Wall street, two ele ments that might either 'demoralize the marker for securities or carry it rapidly to a higher level, maintain an attitude of stolid indifference. The London inarke.t for securities was described today as showing a lx-tter tone than for some time past', and prices for American securities indicated that the de scription was accurate. The improve ment was said to be based upon a belief that the powers are likely to intervene In the Graeco-Turklsh conflict. The im provement in London was not, however, reflected in the local market. It did not interfere with the success of a fresh at tack upon Jersey Central, nor deter realiz ing sales in Sugar, and Chicago Gas -was one of the few stocks that closed frac tionally higher than yesterday. The re mainder of the list, with the exception of Jersey Central, -.vhich sustained a net lo-s of 1 3-4 per cent, made no special progress in either direction. Covering of shorts in Western Union checked the decline In that stock. The only engagement of gold today for shipment was of .$500,000 that will go forward early next week Kew Yctrlc Stock ainrkp.

Such a day asyesterdayon the stock exchange with the prevailing low average ot prices, and with purposeless insignificant speculation, with a very small amount of business done and with prices at the clo.se lower than ever, a day of weary stagnation, can gie no one wiio has anything to do with the stock market any very bright ideas ot the future, of uiiy prosperity within our grasp Tlie friends of the Administration should undoubtedly buy up great blocks, millions of dollars' worth, of railroad properties and sugar stock, and the other industrials and hold them f-r high prices. One hun dred thousand shares of stock a day would not only double tlie amount of our present transactions, but would force prices up with leaps and bounds, very much like a real boom At present these friends of the Administration are doing nothing ot the sort. Nobody seems to be buying anything. The talk otimestment bujing ha nothing behind it in the wuy ot tangible facts. The very uncertain tariff prospects, the outflow of gold now beginning again, and this lack or confidence are no indication on which to base bull predictions. The whoie market looks the other way to a great many shrewd people. As against this, it should be stated that there are people in the marketall the time yet, who are looking fcr an immediate turn for the better. The Monetary Trust is one of these. President Cariey writes and talks and invests on' this line all the time. I quote what he said last night on the situation: "The bears seem to have sold to a posi tive finish. Their efrorts are feeble and almost foolish. I bad a conference with two prominent bears, and they confess that there is r.o profit In their snuggle. It seems impossible that the marketshould do otherwise than begin an upward cree: Ing movement very soon." Town Topics' financial bureau, too, be lieves that much money is to be made in buying several of the best railioad stocks. To be sure there is a difference, aud it the market falls some stocks -will fall less than others. Also it is quite probable that some of the good railroad properties will see an advance in their stocks. With the Town Topics people this column has been for some time more or less of a bull ou Burlington. The report yesterday un questionably bears out the rosy predic tions that have been made in the last month. Burlington's report for March shows a gain of $27S,000, and for the quarter ending with tlie close of Mareh a gain of $S1 0,000. The road made up la three months 1 per cent on its capital stock less 36,000. The operating ex penses in March were 54.81 per tent agaiust 61.10 in '96 and 64 15 in '95. For three months they have been 07 14 per cent against 64.81 la3t year. Town Topics says that the people who are buy ing Burlington have not gone in for a turn of a dollar or two per share, but have taken hold of the property knowing its value and recognizing that it will Le a leader among thegrangerec Town Topics believes also that the other grangers will be sympathetically affected and will ad vance proportionately.

I believe that he Is right, and that if a property is not earning Its dividends any better than Western Union or Manhattan, it is much better business not to pay them. However, as against this I quote the opinion of one of the shrewd tiaders: "The particular director who has been bo freely quoted as being determined to cut down the rate has by no means been able to carry his point recently with regard to the policies ot some of the properties with which he Is connected. Some liqui dation may be provoked by tlie continued bear agitation concerning Western Union, but some observers feel confident that any stock sold at the present juncture will fail Into a basket held out by virue sub stantial Interests." Dow, Jones & Co. say of Tennessee Coal and Iron: We understand that Tennessee Coal and Iron, in pursuance" of its policy of getting expenses down, has recently becured freight reductions in a number of instances, aud particularly with reference to handling products locally. The saving on this point is said toamountto qultea handsome sum. In other departments savings lately ef fected are said to be worth to the company in the neighborhood ot$75,000 a year. There is nothing at the Capitol in Jght to justify buying Sugar. The market was strong today and fairly motive, in the face ot the general dullness. One sees no reason for this, and probably there is no good one. Sugar only dropped slightly from the opening prices, where pooibly a couple of rolnts had been ex pected. The probabilities j-eem to be still that prices will go down before the advance, which usually comes around divi dend time. "Washington Stock Exchange.
