Princess Anne, May 10. Congress man Robert Franklin Brattan, Representative from the first district of Maryland, died at his home, in Princess Anne, this morninir at 8.30 o'clock of Briirbt's disoase.after an ill ness which first developed in October last. when he was compelled to relinquish his congressional duties. When the symptoms of the fatal malady first became apparent be visited Baltimore in company with his physician. Dr.

K. W. Dashioll. of Princess Anne, and consulted Dr. Samuel C.

Chew, with the hope of deriving1 some benefit from his treatment. Later ho visited Old Point Comfort, where he spent a week, but failed to make any improvement in his health. Airain in Deoember he visited Baltimore and con suited Dr. Chew, but there was no hope. After his return from this visit to Baltimore his condition gradually grew worse, and he was under the necessity of abandoning his lucrative law practice altogether.

He did not despair of his recovery, however, and cherished the hope that he would be able eventually to resume his congressional du ties and airain participate actively in tho practice of his profession. It was a delusive hone, however. The in sidious disease gradually made la roads upon bia robust constitution He was compelled first to abandon bis daily rides, then his daily walks, and two mouths ago so impaired bud his health become that he was compelled to remain in bed all tho time. A month agd his death would not have surprised those accustomed to wa'cb at his bedside. His strong constitution and his determination to recover his health seemed to stay tbe progress of the disease.

A week ago it became apparent that bo eould no longer withstand the attack and be lapsed into unconsciousness, from wbioh he never aroused. Day by day be sank by perceptible degrees, and his death was momentarily expected. Last night, bis watchers expected each breath to be the last. He had not taken any nourishment for three days, and as a result he was much reduced in flesh, his weight not being half of that when he was in good health. During bis closing hours he was faithfully attended by his wife and by his devoted friend.

Mr. S. S. Sudler, who had been bis constant companion since his illness first besran; by bis father-in-law and law partner. Mr.

James V. Dennis; by Dr. R. W. Dashiell, his physician; by his sisters-in-law, Mrs.

R. W. Dashiell and Miss Maria Dennis; by his brother, Mr. J. Y.

Brattan, of Washington, and Mr. R. F. Maddox. all or whom were at his bedside when he died.

His end was peaceful. Had he lived until Sunday next he would have been forty-nine years of age. While death was not unexpected, it came as a shock to tbe community in which be bad resided for over twenty-five years and bv wbioh he was so eiucerely respected and esteemed. No man in Somerset county could have died whose loss will be more generally felt and mourned. He was well known in neighboring counties and throughout the State, and all day his family has been in re ceipt of messages of condolence from friends in different parts of the State.

A srood de mand prevailed for loans for regular trade uses, and there was a fairly active business done through the bank9, the clearings show Ing an increase. Tbe Baltimore banks made a strong showing of their condition at the close of business on May 4. The financial movement which attracted most attention was the prompt reselling of about $2,000,000 Baltimore city securities to investors at prices that were an advance on tho figures at which they were awarded by the finance commissioners. Some bankinar house transactions in other securities made a considerable aggregate. In the wholesale Jobblnsr districts tbe distribution or goods was mainly for consumption, and of about tbe usual proportions for May.

This movement was steady in nlf the leading lines, and, while the orders were not heavy, tbey made business fairly active. There was a general absence of speculation in manufactured goods, and the trade are awaiting something definite from Washington. In the cereals wheat lost about 1 cent per bushel, corn was steady and small fractions better, provisions were regular and easier, and cotton lost 1-16 of a cent per pound. At the Baltimore Stock Exchange there was a good and well distributed investment business done and the market was steady.

St. Paul was most active of the railway list. and was tho only one of this class of stocks in which the transactions exceeded 10.000 shares.

At the opening tbe general market waB firm and a majority of the shares traded, in showed an advance ou the closing figures of Wednesday, exceptions being Illinois Central, Louisville and Nashville and General E'ectrio. The speculation was unsettled durinir the first half hour of business, but gradually assumed a strong tone, the Grangers and Industrials being most prominent in the upward movement. The improving tendency of tho market continued into tbe af ternoon, with Sugar as the leader. having made a rain of 4 up to midday. Tbe buyiugr in this stock became quite pro nounced after noon, and was for both long and short accounts, catislnar an additional advance of 2, to 107.

Theiren-eral list was strong throughout the after noon until just Dutoro a clock, when a fractional reaction set in. due mainly to realizations, aud the market closed sliuhtly heavy and somewhat irregular, but in a majority of cases at an advance.

The rise in Suttar was unaccompanied by news affecting the stock, aud apparently was duo to squeeze of the shorts, who were inclined to sell by the nrtitieial weakness displayed. The liquidation in General Electric was re sumed, seudimr the stock down to X4 being i4 per cent. loss, xue readiness with whion the stock offered was absorbed checked the selling and iuduced buyimr. causiuir a rally ot 1, tho final sale belm? within Ik of the highest point touched.

Bice held his second annual sale of horses yesterday at his Valley View stook farm, above Towson, Baltimore county, Thirty-three horses were sold at low prices, which amounted in all to $5,193 50, or about $157 each. Tho quality of tho horses was good, and though the proprietor bad many better ones in the stables the sale 'could not be termed a "cull" sale. O. A. Kirkland, the auctioneer, sold without reserve every animal he offered.

Mr. Rice established a high precedent by not bidding in tho more valuable stock. When Mr. John Waters seoured the mare First Chance for $185 Mr. Rice gave him $35 for his bargnin after the sale.

The auctioneer made an offer of $315 for Talbot Maid, which was bought by H. i.ee Clarke for 205, but tbe offer was refused. Most of the horses put In the ring were started at $100, and it looked as if many bad brought out exactly that amount to buy any horse to their liklmr which went at tbe figure named. Tbe auctioneer had to jolly the bidders along to keep tbe sale going. An attempt to sell bugerles was a failure.
