Sixmificant Circumstances. ‘The consultations are held in secret, and no announcement of the conclusion reached is ever made prior to promulgation from the bench, but some circumstances con- nected with the session rather point to the vote of Justice Jackson. having been cast in favor of the constitutionality of the law. ‘The principal reason for’this statement Is to be found in the, fact that after the consultation of all the members of the court a private conference was held be- tween Justices White, Harlan and Brown, who were.all in favor of the law at the previous hearing, Justice Jackson. Chief. Justice Fuller, the remaining justice who favored upholding the law in part, ‘was not present. ~ The manner of Justices Harlan and White who were the most strenuous supporters of the law in the previous conference also led to the inference, pat they felt that they. were in the majority. 3 Juste Sdickwon Will Leave. ‘These incidental facts, of course, are by no means qonclusiye, but as straws they point. to thé’ upholding of the taw.

The former board of Commissioners de- elared in no uncertain terms against the licensing of merry-go-rounds, and Col. M. M. Parker, who had charge of police af- fairs, speaking for tne board, declared that permits of that character would The locatiyn—ist and K streets {—enjoys a very unsavory repuia- dd Sergt. Smith of the fourth pre- cinct has made several vigorous reports against granting a permit to operate a merry-go-round at this place. Yet in spite of all this the Commissioners majority of them—have granted B. x ters a permit to operate a merry-go- round at this place. Judge Miller of the Police Court was asked by a Star reporter what he thought of the influence of merry- go-rounds. “I know nothing of these places person- ally, but there are many cases brought before me of assaults and other infractions of the law which originate around them. ‘They are, not like a circus, which only stays a day or two, but throughout ‘the entire summer they are in operation, attracting crowds of idle and -lisord>rly people.” n ———— Many Bequests.

The residents of Stillwater, Minn, are well pleased with the so-called “curfew bell’ enactment.. About the middle of Feb- wwary the council passed an ordinance pro- viding that, beginning March 1, the bell on the engine house should ring at 9 o'clock every evening, and that after that time no children should be allowed on the street. The scheme met with considerable opposition at first from the boys and from scme parents who had allowed their chil- dren to run the streets at night, but a few arrests soon demonstrated that the council meant business and quieted most of the complainants. Occasionally venturesome boys stay out after the allotted time to annoy policemen. A few nights ago an of- ficer chased such a one several blocks and landed him in the station house. After a lecture he was released. Now, as a rule, when curfew rings, there is a general skur- rying among the boys to get beneath the parental roof. Anoka, a town of 5,000 inhabitants, has rccently passed a similar ordinance, and thus far finds that it works well. St Cloud ard Fergus Falls and Faribault are also censidering the plan. The success of the Stillwater experiment has excited consid- erable attention throughout the state, and the probabilities are that many of the smaller towns will try it. Whether the larger cities will attempt to regulate the youngsters is problematical. In Minneapo- lis the board of education talked over the plan and informally decided that it would be a good thing in connection with 2 Jaw erforcing compulsory attendance at schools. So far as known, the scheme has not yet been considered in St. Paul. eas Richard Vaux's Unique Checks. From the Philadelphia Record. Among the eccentricities of the late Richard Vaux was his strong aversion for the use of bank books or checks. The famous ex-mayor had a bank account, of course. In fact, he had several of them, but he never drew upon them in the regular way, through the medium of checks. When- ever any one came to him with a bill Mr. Vaux would pay it in a very enique way. ‘The back of an old envelope or a fragment of paper of any kind or aize would serve for a check, and upon this he would scrib- ble the amount of the bill, the name of the creditor, and his own characteristic signa- ture. He very frequently used a_ strip from the margin of a newspaper. The te! lers at the banks all knew of Mr. Vau: Prange custom, and none of Mr. Vaux’s yme-made checks were ever turned down. ++ 0+ Joe Sefterson’n First Telegram. Eyom the Boston Traveler. Te. Joseph Jefferson tells a very amusing anecdote of the effect that the telegraph had-on the people when it was first estab- lished. He says: “I received my first tele- gram in Cumberland, Md. I could not be- lieve it, but there it was—a reply to my let- ter of the day before. I called at the office to inquire if it were really so. A small group of people had collected about the Operator, all wearing a look of surprise and incredulity. We began showing one another our dispatches, and looking with respect- ful awe at the mysterious little machine that was ticking away as if worked by some mysterious spirit of the other world. The whole town was excited about it. If I were now to receive a message from the planet Mars, offering me a star engage- ment, I could not be more astonished than I was on that day.” see Craze for Crime Mementoes, Ficm Tid-Bits. Since the assassination of M. Carnot the cutler at Cette who sold the dagger to the murderer has, it is said, been inundated with orders fog weapons of similar pattern and size to that used on the fatal night at Lyons. The orders come frome France and from abroad, somebody in Brussels having asked for 3u0 daggers. During the month following the assassination the cutler dis- patched over 1,000 of these ariicles to vari- ous places, and he is on the road to realize a small fortune out of the extraordinary craze manifested by his customers, French and foreign. Some of these people intend to exhibit the blades in their shops or taverns, while others are collectors of curi- osities, who want to possess some memento of a terrible crime. - see Trancemogrification, From Punch. Now that hypnotism is in the air, our conversation books will have to be remod- eled, as thus: Good morning. well? Yes, I have had a most successful trance this winter. Have you laid up at all?

Church for a writ of mandamus, to compel Lemuel Henson and the other trustees of the Hills- dale Church to open the doors of the church to him, was postponed by Judge Cole today until 3 o'clock next Tucsday af- ternoon. The matter was postponed at the request of counsel for the trustees, who explained ”that he had not been given suffi- cient time to answer the application of Mr. Gowens. Rey. W.-R. Arnold, formerly presidin: elder of the third district of the A. M. E. conference, who was recently assigned to the church at Frederick, Md., says there is no truth in the allegations that there was objection to his coming among his new con- wregation, as he took charge of the church last Sunday, and never in his twenty-eight years’ experience in the ministry had he received a more cordial and hearty wel- come. —_-_— THE COURTS.

FINANCE AND TRADE Highest Prices of the Recent Up- ward Movement. THERE WAS NO PRESSURE 70 SELL Londgn:Cables Reflected a Steady Tone. GENERAL MARKET REPORTS Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, NEW YORK, May 11.—Havifig been un- successful in bringing about a reaction by quoting history,.and precedent, the trading element came into the market as buyers of stocks this morhing ‘ahd’ established the highest prices recorded om the recent up- ward movement. All offerings of stocks were quickly absorbed, and there being no pressure to.se}l, the only available expedi- ‘ent was to bid them up and tempt realiz- ing. The Volume of busitiéss for a short session was large and few, stocks failed to participate in the advance. It hascbeen-a meticeable feature of the week's trading that the individual sales of stocks have. been more than. doubled on the ascending scale. There was a tendency to take profits around the opeging this morning; atid ‘price in’ consequence were barely, steady, at, Jast,night’s closing figures, but the supply of orders fraction- ally undé the “tfriarkét. “prévéented any sig- nificant concessions. > London’s early cables reflected a steady tone in the market for international securt- ties, but the customary advances were not recorded, as the result of more conservative cperations, based on. the belief that local traders would force concessions in their desire to reduce the profits of the tape into actual possession. This result did not materialize, and the week closes with optimistic forecasts pre- dominating, and assurances that foreign support next week will be as liberal as it has been this. Should this latter statement Prove correct, the only fear of a reaction will be removed. The foreign exchange market, the weaker tone of which has given new encouragement to the believers in higher. prices, closed with the lowest rates of the week prevafling, and indications that further declines are probable, The several pcdls ‘operating in the granger shares were instrumental in ad- vancing all the active members of that group a full point, and heave enlisted the co-operation and sympathies of some of the shrewdest aperators-.in the street. Atchison advanced to 9% under a good de- mand, andNashville moved -up to 61 cn buying, in which both accounts were said to be represented. Distillers was bought in round amounts for a gain of 13-4 per cent, as the result of a further advance in the price of spiriis. Sugar openel ‘st » and oa the resump- tion of buying by those originally interest- ed in the upward movement gained 2 per cent from first prices. The profits of this company, at the sustained advance in the price of the refined product, are enormous, and its friends are confident that the mar- ket value of the stock will still further re- flect this prosperity. The balance of the industrial. groups, while. not especially active. were in sympathy with the ing tendencies elsewhere. The bank statement reftects a further e@in in the cash holdings of the banks and a liberal increase in loans, which, with the other items reported, about Offsets the gain in deposits. The detailed report shows: Reserve increased $3,836,525; I increased $4,016,100; specie decreased $289,200; increased $6,333,400; deposits increased $10,- 834,700, and circulation increased $40,100. —_—_—_.
