Washington, Sept. 20.—Indications are unmistakable at the post oltiee department that something of unusual importance is about to occur. Marked apprehension is manifested by some officials over the return of the president, who has so recently read the report of Holmes Conrad and Charles J. Bonaparte on the Tulloch charges. day, and Confidence Was Restored. New York, Sept. 29.—The Btock mar—Bit opened feverishly and wholly irregular, suffering from active liquidation, but showing support and even decisive rallies occasionally In unexpected places. Apparently the best buying was In Pennsylvania railroad, which opened one per cent, higher and held the gain almost entirely. The most important pressure was against the steel stocks. Common broke its low record by one-half point, but subsequently was fairly well supported at the closing price. The greatest decline was in the active list, including a fall of 1H in Norfolk & Western. This was on a single transaction, for the next transaction was at %. After 15 minutes' trading, the market continued to be well supported, although feverish and irregular. The coroner's jury returned a verdict in which they find that Mr. Ferguson came to his death from concussion of the brain caused by an explosion of dynamite, which explosion was caused by some person or persons unknown to the jury. CHAS. RITTER RESIGNS. Yesterday's rioting grew out of a promise to pay all the men in the morning, although the Consolidated Lake Superior company's officials who made this promise admitted that they had no knowledge of where the money was coming from to satisfy the men. Will be Succeeded as Manager of Pitts- The only new thing developed by the coroner wns the fnet that the night before Mr. Ferguson wns murdered ft stronger lodged at the France hotel, disappeared early Friday morning and wns not seen again until Saturday afternoon about 4 o'clock, when he wns met on the road at "tlie bridge" by Lewis Lane. He was going in a westerly direction, and the description of blin given by Lane tnlllcs closely with that given by Farmer Lngget of the man seen by him going over the hill from the scene of the explosion enrrying the satchel which contained the payniaster's money. While Messrs. Conrad and Bonapnrte have refused to divulge the character of their report, saying that It was confidential until released by the president, indications hnve leaked out that it would support Tulloch, to the great discomfort of those he accused of "calling off" an investigation. It Is known that, notwithstanding the postmaster general's dismissal of the Tulloch charges as i "closed Incident," they are very much ilive and are regarded by many as still containing trouble making possibilities. Oct. 1st a change will talte place in the management of the Plttston Ice Co. Charles Rltter, who for a number of years past has managed the affairs of the company satisfactorily, retires, James Cosgrove, of Wilkesbarre, succeeding him. For some time Mr. Ritter has been desirous of quitting the ice business and entering other employment, but the ice company desired him to remain until the busy season was over, consequently he consented to remain until the end of September. The new manager of the company, Mr. Cosgrove, will be well remembered by1 many Pittstonians. Until four years ago he resided in this city, at that time removing his family to WilUesbarre, having been employed there by the Traction Co. He has had experience in superintending, and his selection by the Plttston Ice Co. as manager is a tribute to his ability. As soon as possible, Mr. Cosgrove will remove his family to this city. ton Ice Co. by Jas. Cosgrove, Lot 7—Children's Fleece Lined Bibbed Sleeping Garments, all sizes, for 25 cents.

Lafayette, Ind., Sept. 29.—Six Purdue University students, five of them freshmen, the other a sophomore, were seriously injured here last night in the annual "tank scrap." Besides these six, over a score other members of the class were badly battered and broken heads and damaged faces are to be seen all about the college. Nearly all the injuries were received in a fight at a ditch dividing the camps of the classes.

Although certain indictments nre confidently expected from the grand jury today, none nre yet forthcoming. That there will be some important indictments tills week is regarded as certain, however, as tlie grand jury expires by limitation on Oct. 5, and there are several cases, including some against George E. Green and George W. Beavers, on which no flnnl action has yet been taken. That the two individuals named will again be indicted on charges of conspiracy to defraud in connection with the stamp canceling machines purchased by the department is practically certain.

Chicago, Sept. 29.—The marchers in the big centennial parade tbniglit will be compelled to tramp over the route without a musical note to cheer them. The Musicians' union last night positively refused to take part in the parade or to have anything whatever to do with the centennial celebration if the Marine band of Washington Is to play at the mass meeting in tlie Auditorium on Thursday night, which is to be the final act of the celebration. The injured members of the mob were taken away by their fellows, and no details be obtained. THIS AFTERNOON'S FIRE. Blaze on Market Street That Might Three or four streams of water from fire liosp seemed to drive the crowd awny temporarily, but it returned later and forced an entrance into the ground door of the building, where movable pieces of furniture were demolished. EVANS BROS. £ X^RRICES Lackawanna Employes on Short Time. Wilkesbarre, Sept. 29—Notices  posted at all collieries of the D., L. & W. Co., ordering the men on half-time until further notice. The order will probably continue during October. The company operates 21 workings, employing 11,700 men, and the wage loss will be about $63,000 weekly. The re Etrictipna ordered during the past t»n days threw nearly 60,000 men idle Cotwo or each week. A slight fire that might have been serious In its results had it not been checked occurred on Market street about 3 o'clock this afternoon. The blaze started in the rear ol Roginsky's store, In a room where there was con siderable excelsior. Some children were playing about the place and in some manner they Ignited the excelsior. The side of the house took Are and for a short time it looked as If there might be a serious blaze, but a few neighbors formed a bucket brigade and held the flames down until the Niagara Hose Co. arrived, when the fire was quickly extinguished. There was practically no damage. Have Been Serious. An assault upon the stairs to the upper floors was thwarted by a number of officials who confronted the rioters with drawn revolvers. The rioting by this time had become general, and about nqpn In a fracas on one of the jlown_ tpwn streets two Frenchmen were shot by the officers. Both were seriously wounded. This row grew out of an attempt of some Frenchwomen to rescue one of their number who had been plnced under arrest. The union declares that its constitution forbids its members to have anything to do with an event In which enlisted men in the government service take part. The union therefore demanded that the invitation to the Marine band be withdrawn or the union musicians would decline to furnish music for the parade, for the banquet of tlie mnyors tomorrow or for any other part of the centennial celebration. The committee of arrangements for the centennial informed the union last night that the invitation to the Marine band would stand, no matter what action was taken by the local musicians. The union at once decided that it could not recede from the position it had taken, and it so informed the committee. It was decided by the committee to go ahead with their plans just as though there were no such thing as music! The playing by the Marine band Thursday niglit will therefore be the only music of the celebration.The coming event which casts its shadow o\-er the post office department has no reference, however, to indictments past or future, but rather to the probable action ot the president in those cases where criminal prosecution Is rendered impossible by the stntute of limitations, and to others where there has been a lack of that appreciation of the responsibilities of public office which President IJoosevelt regards as indispensable.

There Is also a list of persons whose unfitness for retention In the post office department has been demonstrated beyond doubt by the current investigation. Criticism has been loud because these manifestly unlit officials hare been retained so long, and it Is likely that the president will call on Mr.. Brlstow for the list and Insist on the immediate dismissal of those whose malfeasance, although too small or too Indirect to warrant criminal prosecution, has been so clearly demonstrated as more than to warrant their Immediate divorce from the government pay roll. BRENNAN and ROBERTS London, Sept. 20. — An Odessa dispatch to the Standard reports that a conference of Siberian merchants and traders was recently held at Tomsk, Siberia, with the object of developing Russian commerce with China. The meeting arrived at unsatisfactory conclusions, the bulk of the evidence adduced proving that in the existing circumstances it is practically Impossible for IUissian products and manufactures to compete successfully in China against those of western Europe and the United States. The administration of the Siberian railroad has declared it impossible without a ruinous loss of revenue to greatly reduce the freight rates. 42 N. MAIN.
