R LONDON, Dec. 14—While the week on the Stock Exchange closed with some at- tempt at cheerfulness undef the influence of the recovery in Americans and the hope that the New York bank statement would show an appreciable contraction in improvement in business prior to the new | year. The position of New York domi- nates more or less the whole situation here, and operators follow closely the course of events on Wall street. Considerable monetary uncertainty still exists in trade, but as Wew York and | South Afriea are supplying a portion of | the South American demand for gold, and as there is no continental decline upon | the stocks of this metal held by the| banks, it is considered probable that any advance in the bank rate the present year will be avoided. Considerable confidence | is expressed that with the flow of money back to New York from the interior after the new year, and with increasing recog- nition that the fiscal situation in Europe is not dangerous, affairs are shaping| themselves for a distinct increase in ac- tivity early in 1903 — BUSINESS IS DEPRESSED. Situation Does Not Justify Specula- tive Buying in Any Department. BERLIN, Dec. 14.—The Boerse has had | a week of stagnant trading, but values | were rather firm. It is remarked that the present season is utterly devoid of the usual bull ten- dency. The business situation does not | justify speculative buying in any depart- | ment. Yesterday the Westphalian pig-iron syn- dicage reduced the price on puddling and | steeling qualities of pig-iron by 2 marks | per ton for the first quarter of the year. | This reduction, however, did not prevent a slight advance in the quotations on iron shares yesterday upon the receipt of Fri- day’s closing quotations from Wall street. | Under the influence of the year's end| money has a higher tendency. This has had the effect of fractionally depressin; domestic loans. Foreign rentes slightly better during the past week. HANDBALL TOURNAMENT AT THE OLYMPIC CLUB Minahan Beats Bowman and ILevy Defeats Tom Powers After a Hard Struggle. The semi-finals in the Olympic Club hard handball ‘tournament were played yes- terday before a large crowd. All the games were exciting. William Minahan, the big policeman had little trouble beating Robert Bow man. The policeman took the first game {by 3 score of 21 to5 and captured the second by a score of 21 to 1. Minahan is sure of second prize and if he defeats the winner of the Bowman:Levy game he will win the tournament. | The game between Louis Levy and Tom | Powers was won by Levy after a hard | struggle. Levy took the first game, 21| | to 4. Pcwers then reversed the order of | things and captured the second)game, 21 to 9. Although both players webe suffer- ing from bad hands, they started the | third game with a rush. Powers led Levy | up to sixteen and then Levy made it even | up. From then on until the finish the | playing was exceedingly fast. Levy | “killed” twice from the back wall with | his left and then served out the game, The spectators made so much nojse the players could not hear the im- {pact of the ball against the wall. The | score in the final game was 21 to 16. Max Rosenfeld had little trouble beat- ing Oarsman Sherry. The scores were 21 to 1 and 21 to 13. Tim Fitzpatrick and Jack Burke played three fast games, Fitzpatrick winning. Both players were applauded for their work. Scores; 21-16 15-21, 21-10. —_—— Sacramento Baseball a Tie. SACRAMENTO, Dec. 14—In twelve in- nings of the fastest kind of ball at Oak Park to-day, the best the Nationals could do was to tie the result with the tail-end- ers of the California League by a score that read 2 to 2. Donovan, who pitched for the big leaguers, was far more effec- tive than the other vislting twirlers have been and kept the hits well scattered. Thomas pitched a great game and only lost control in the eighth inning when he hit two men and allowed two singles that scored two runs. Attendance 6000. —_———— Fire Threatens Costly Stock. VICTORIA, B. C., Dec. 14—A message from Ladysmith says that fire broke ofn in the store of Leiser & Hamburger to- | day. As there was no water available, it was feared that not only-the store, which thas a stock valued at $100,000, but the Postoffice, Rhodes’ hardware store, the Jones Hotel and two other buildings in loans, there is little expectation of a real; | powerful and remarkable curative force | strength. NEW TARIFE 15 AIMED AT THI3 NATION Frank Disclosures by Leaders in German Reichstag. Anti-American Speeches Are Suppressed by Eerlin Newspapers. Dr. Paasche Declares the Govern- ment Has Promised Revision of All Commercial Treaties. BERLIN, Dec. 14—During the debate on the third reading of the tariff bill in! the Reichstag yesterday it was evident from many speeches delivered by mem- bers of the majority that the bill is aimed chiefly at the United States. This was clear even when the United States was not named, for it was understood that the term “abroad” referred to America. Last night Dr. Paasche, National Lib- United States, which most of the news- papers this morning failed to print. The Deutsche Tages Zcltung, the leading Agrarian organ, however, published Dr, Paasche’s remarks in heavy-faced type. They are doubly interesting since they disclose the Government's policy with re- gard to future treaty negotiations. ““We expect,” said Dr. Paasche, “that the Government will undertake a thor- oughgoing revision of all treaties giving the most-favored-nation advantages. Promises of this kind were made to us in committee. We have absolutely no occa- sion to goncede anything to such nations as are glad to take what we give other countries without making us any conces- sion in return. The United States has introduced the limitation of the most- favored-nation clause; we have every reason to act in precisely the same man- ner.” @ iiniiminiiviiiielefieiieie i @ V00KE EDISON The Man of the Hour in the Metrop- olis, His Wonderful Invention Pro- nounced the Greatest Boon of the Age. NEW YORK, Dec. 14.—Thomas A. Edi- son Jr.’s remarkable discovery of the| new curative force which he has sm- bodied in his Magno-Electric Vitalizer seems likely to make the young man as famous in the world of invention as his distinguished father, while as a benetac- tor to suffering humanity he is already more sought after than the noted Aus- trian surgeon, Professor Lorenz. No discovery in modern times ever aroused one half the interest that is now being evinced in young Edison’s inven- tion. Tt is pointed out by scientists that the Magno-Electric Vitalizer is the most | in existence to-day. There seems to be no limit either to its powers or its pos- sibilities. It is equally adapted to the relief of the most complex disorders of the nerves, such as neryous prostration or paralysis; to the cure of diseases of the blood, such as rheumatism, catarrh and malaria; t lung and respiratory complaints like con- sumption and asthma; to digestive troubles, such as dyspepsia and malnu- trition; to the various organic and intes- tinal conditions which result in Bright's disease and appendicitis, as well as to the many circulatory defects that are evi- denced by heart disease and failing In fact, say the scientists, the Vitalizer fully merits the name Mr. Edi- on has bestowed upon {it, for it stores up and communicates vitality. Much of young Mr. Edison's present popularity is undoubtedly due to the fact that he has resolutely refused to allow his invention to be exploited by persons who would be likely to regard it more as a commercial proposition than as an oppor- tunity to relieve the sufferings of human- hity. He has placed a price upon the Vi- talizer only sufficient to cover the cost of manufacture and is distributing it only through his own company. ‘When Mr. Edison was seen in his labor- atory yesterday he said: “Usually I do not care to talk about my work, but in the maner'of the Vitalizer I feel that a duty and & responsibility have been laid upon me and that the public should be allowed to know that pain and sickness can, at last, be banished from the earth. It has been my life-long ambition to create something that should give hap- piness to the world, and I feel now that I have succeeded. “Several attempts have been made to induce me to sell the Vitalizer to pro- moters, but I feel that if I did so I should not be doing my duty to humanity. There has been bestowed upon me the power to help the sick and suffering and I want everybody to know that I will not allow capital to be made out of their afflictions. Tell your readers for me that I have defi- nitely determined to direct the manufac- ture and distribution of the Vitalizer my- self, and that I will manage it only through my own company. Tell them that it makes no difference to me whether a man is rich or poor, or whether he lives in the country or the city. If he is sick or affiicted let him just drop a line to the Thomas A. Edison Jr. Chemical Company, No. 4 Stone street, New York, and he will get the best advice that I can give him. I mean to help suffering humanity and I do not propose to be swerved from my in- tention.” TWO MEN ARE KILLED IN A GAS EXPLOSION Fatality Occurs in a Tunnel One Hun- dred Feet Below Bottom of Lake Erie.

ASHINGTON, Dec. 14.—Mrs. Ulysses 8. Grant died at her resflence in this city at 11:17 o'clock to-night. Death was due to heart failure, Mrs. Grant having suffered for years from valvular dfseaseof the heart, Which was aggravated by a severe attack of bronchitis. Her age prevented her ral- lying from the attacks. Her daughter; Nellie Grant Sartoris, was the only one of her children with her at the time of her death, her three sons, who had been sum- moned, all being unable to reach here in time. There also were present at the bedside when the end came Miss Rose Mary Sar- torls, a granddaughter, Dr. Bishop, one of the attending physicians, and two trained nurses. Death came peacefully, the sufferer re- taining consclousness practically to the end. Word has come from Jesse and U. 8. Grant Jr., two of the sons in California, that they have started on their way to ‘Washington. The other son, General Fred Grant, is hastening hither from Texas. The body of Mrs. Grant will be deposited in the tomb at Riverside Park, New York, where those of her husband now repose. Whether it will be taken thither immedi- ately or this ceremony will be postponed for a time could not be ascertained to- night. ey F GO LIFE OF MRS. GRANT. Accompanied Her Husband Through- out the Civil War. Mrs. Julia Dent Grant, widow of the late General U. S. Grant, formerly Pres- ident of the United States, was born in St. Louis, Mo., January 26, 1826. Her father was Freder- jck Dent, son of Captain George Dent of colonial and revolutionary fame. Her mother was Miss Ellen Wrenshall, | descended from John Wrenshall, who em- igrated from England to America at the time of the religious persecutions. Mrs. Grant was educated at one of the excellent boarding schools for which St. Louis was noted in those days. Soon af- ter the completion of her education she met Lieutenant U. S. Grant, whose regi- ment was stationed at Jefferson Bar- racks, near the city of St. Louis, to whom she became engaged. The Mexican War coming on, however, in 1846 Lieutenant Grant marched with his regiment to the scene of action and it was not until he returned at the close of the war, in which he won his captaincy, that the five years’ engagement was closed by their marriage. Mrs. Grant accompanied her husband to his posts of duty at Detroit, Sacketts Harbor and other places until he was or- dered to the Pacific Coast, when she and ker children made their home with her father. Her husband resigned from the army several years before the Civil War broke out and they went to Galena, I, to live, where he engaged in business with his father. ‘When on Mr. Lincoln’s call for troops Captain. Grant tendered his services to Governor Yates and went to the front in command of a regiment of Illinois volun- teers Mrs, Grant soon joined him and re- maingd at his side whenever practicable throughout the four years' struggle. Her experlences during the advance on Richmond by way of the Wilderness and Spottsylvamia Courthouse, and later dur- ing the slege of Petersburg, often spo- ken of to her family and friends, would QUARREL OVER TRIFLE ENDS IN A TRAGEDY Dying Man Shoots at His Assail- ! ant, but the Bullet Misses. TRUCKEE, Dec. 14—Willlam Lamb was shot by Frank Kenntes, colored, here last night and died a few minutes afterward. The shooting occurred in a saioon, and it was only a defective pistol and poor marksmanship that prevented others from being killed or wounded. Earlier in the evening Lamb was carry- ing a tray along the street and ran against Kennies, the collision causing him to drop the tray. Kennies wanted to apol- ogize, but Lamb refused to acgept any excuse and drew a pistol and pushed it against Kennles, but it only snapped. He then struck him a severe blow on the head with the pistol amd threatened to kill him the next time he saw him. Kennies went Home, armed himself and returned. He was told not to go into the saloon, where Lamb was, but he did, and when Lamb saw him he raised up his hands and sald “Shoot.” Kennies shot him in the side. The wounded man drew a gun and tried to shoot Kennies, who had been seized by a number of bystand- ers, but his aim was untrue and the bul- let went wide of its mark. Lamb then fell and was picked up and laid on the counter. He expired in about twenty minutes. Kennies escaped and secreted himself over night, but came in and gave himself up to the officers this morning. L e o e e o | i MRS. ULYSSES S. GRANT, WHO HAS PASSED AWAY IN WASH- INGTON. form an interesting addition to the grim story of war as seen during those com- paigns. During the eight years that her dis- tinguished soldier husband was President, she presided over the White House with a grace and dignity that betokened her education and early breeding. The Execu- tive Mansion had been refurnished throughout with great elegance, and the entertainments were all conducted on a magnificent scale, everything going with the smoothness and ease that follow good housekeeping and good management. When General Grant left the White House and made his celebrated tour of the world, Mrs, Grant accompanied him, and was the proud sharer and witness of the honors|lavished upon him. Her pride and faith in him were bound- less. She always declared that he had the ability to fill any position to which he might be called, even at the time preced- ing the Civil War, when the future look- ed quite dark for him. She was a devoted wife in all that the term implies, and a devoted mother to her children, always finding her truest happiness in her home. Financial complications and reverses swept away all of General Grant's means shortly before his death afd Mrs. Grant ‘was left with little or no income. Congress thereupon passed a bill bestowing upon her a pension of $5000 a year. Later she realized nearly $500,000 from royalties on the sales of the “Personal Recollections,” the preparation of which was completed by her husband just four days before his death. Mrs. Grant continued to reside in New York for some years after her husband's death, but about 1899 she moved to Wash- ington, where she had once lived amid such pleasant surroundings, and there re- sided until her death. She leaves four children—Brigadier General Fred Grant, U. 8. A.; Ulysses S. Grant at.San Diego, California; Jesse D. Grant of New York City and Mrs. Alger- non Sartoris, who was married at the ‘White House during her father's stay there, and who, after the death of her husbard in England, returned to this ccuntry and made her home with her mother.

Grant, commander of the Department | of Texas, left Brownsville yesterday on a | trip by stage to Alice, a distance of 160 miles, and was expected to arrive at the latter place this evening or late to- night.

DENVER, Dec. 14.—The entire Rocky Mountain region from Northern Wyoming to Southern New Mexico has been visited by a snowstorm during the past. thirty- six hours. The ground in the plateau sec- tions is covered to a depth of six inches, while the fall in the mountains has been much heavier. The greater portion of | the precipitation fell yesterday and last night. To-day about two Inches of snow fell during the morning in most sections of Colorado, but to-night the weather has cleared. No snow fell in Western Wyo- ming to-day, although around Cheyenne and in the region immediately north of there a light snowfall was experienced. In Southern New Mexico a light rainfall ‘was reported, with snow in the north. In some parts of Colorado, particularly in the San Luis Valley in the south, the snow was the heaviest for years. For the past three years drought has visited the San Luis Valley, and the present visita- tion of moisture has brought rejoicing, assuring as it does good conditions for next year’s crops. Rallroad traffic is experiencing no se- rious interruption as a result of the storm because of the fact that the snow was light and drifted but little. For the same reason there are no fears for the and no losses have been reported. The storm originated in Arizona, and the tempera- | ture at no time has been uncomfortably cold. TOPEKA, Kans., Dec. 14.—The first | heavy snowstorm of the winter prevailed all over Kansas to-day. The fall in some places amounted to four inches on the level. No severe cold accompanied the | storm, and great good to the wheat crop in Central Kansas will result/ Trains on all the roads were delayed to-day, the snow in some places preventing traffic. There has been no relief of the fuel fam- ine in Kiowa County, and should the weather grow cold much distress will en- sue. OMAHA, Dec. 14.—Seven inches of snow, half of which has fallen since morning, i= on the ground. Trains to-night are | coming in late from all directions. No | wind accompanied the storm, however, and beyond® the delay of railroad trains | no serious resplts are reported. ' SCHOONER IS BURNED BY UPSETTING OF STOVE Crew Manages to Reach an Uninhab- ited Island and Is Finally Rescued. ST. JOHNS, N. F., Dec. 14. — The schooner Mollie, carrying a crew of seven men, was struck by a gale yesterday morning. The véssel was heeled over until the stove i her cabin upset. This resulted in setting fire to the woodwork and the schooner was soon a mass of flames. The erew ran the Mollie for Outer Gooseberry Island, an uninhabited island twelve miles off Bonivista Bay. Here the schooner was beached and the crew landed on the rocks. Residents of the mainland caught sight of the burning schooner and the mail boat Dundee was dispatched to the res- cue. The Dundee reached Outer Goose- berry Island last evening. A heavy surf was breaking on the island and only the captain of the Mollie risked the plunge through the surf necessary-to reach the Dundee’s boat. The Dundee remained in the offing ‘until this morning, when she succeeded in getting the other men of the Mollie’s crew on board. These men were badly frostbitten as a result of their night's exposure. AMUSEMENTS. STEINWAY HALL, 223 SUTTER STREET. HAVE YOU SEEN HIM? A BIG SUCCESS. Fascinating! Instructing! Marvelous!
