Gold experienced a further advance to-
day, the price closing in New York at I27E,
having reached at one time 1884. An act
i've demand from importers for shipment is
reported by our dispatches. This upward
turn in gold was not entirely unlocked for,
since it was known that importers were
very generally deferring their remittsnces
until after the first of May, when they hoped
to buy their gold cheaper on the disburse-
ment of $50 interest. The consequence is
now e large and pressing demand for ster-
ling bills, which have advanced tc IO94@
1924, thus inviting shipments of specie and
necessarily advancing the premium. It is
probable the interest payment will suffice
to meet the demand for gold, and thus pre-
vent an extreme advance, but a firm mar
ket may be expected for a time, and prob
ably higher figures will prevail before a re-
action shall occur.
Government securities are quiet in the
New York market, and 5-2Os were again a
shade off to-day. The seven-tnirties were
steady. The market is a little unsettled by
doubts as to the probability of a return of
securities of Europe. Some effect may be
looked for tomorrow from the bill intro
duced into the United States Senate BIZ
Hon. John Sherman to-day; providing for
the consolidation of the public debt, except
ing the g~reenbacks, into a thirty year five
per cent. loan. A partial explanation of
the bill will be found in the telegraph.
The closing prices for coin and govern
ments in this market to-day are as follows

SUICIDE.
Almost a Tragedy on Hamilton street
A Butcher Slabs Himself In the
Throat.
Fear of Becoming Pauper the ause.

Yesterday afternoon, between four and
i've o'clock, John Holman, a butcher, whose
residence and shop is on Hamilton street,
corner of Dodge, attempted to take his own
life by cutting his throat with a butcher
knife. Fortunately the ~self-inlicted wound
did not result fatally. yet the mans condi-
ton is considered precarious.
1t appears that Holman for some time has
been in a cloudy state of mind, induced by
a causeless fear of poverty. He is an Eng
lishman, about thirty-three years of age,
has a wife and two children, and for a year
or such matter has kept & meat market at
the location named above. One who is well
acquainted with him and his business states,
that while he has been doing moderately
well, he has not made as much as he ex-
pected to when he rented the stand and
that he brooded over this until he came to
believe his family were in danger of starva-
ton or likely to become public paupers.
Added to this he received, within q few
days past, a notice from his landlord that the
rent of the premises he occupied would be
raised from SIS to s22 a month, which e n
dersd him still more respondent; and it is
probable a sort of insanity, which we I'M
derstand is hereditary in his family, en-
sued.
In order TO divest his mind of this i'm
aginary trouble he was called on by e
friend, after dinner yesterday, and taken
out riding. But he had formed the purpose
of self-destruction, and while the family
were at supper, between four and five
o'clock, in 4 room back of the butcher shop,
he got up from the table and went into the
shop to put his purpose into execution. A
Mr.. Meads, temporarily in charge Of the
market, was waiting en- a woman customer,
and laying a large butcher knife on the
block, had stepped to the desk to make a
charge on the books, when Holman seized
the knife, threw back his head, and stabbed
himself in the middle Of the throat, COM
pletely severing his windpipe, all the
other vessels Of the neck, strange to say,
escaping injury. He fell to the floor from
the sudden letting out of the breath, and in
a short time the room was filed with peo-
pie. Several physician were called in, and
DR.. Thayer being first on hand had
the unfortunate man placed on a bed
and dressed his wound by sewing up the
wind-pipe. The wound is pronounced not
to be necessarily a mortal one, but his
friends were fearful last night that he would
tear it open. He begged hard to be per
mitted to die, and made several attempts
to clutch his throat with his hands for the
purpose of undoing the surgeons work. He
was closely watched, snd at times forcibly
held in bed.
He is spoken of as an industrious, quiet
man, by those who know him and it is to
be hoped he will live, not only to repent his
rashness, but to understand that the fear of
poverty, to a mar blessed, with strength,
and wife and children, is an idle phantom.

There is an improving demand for mo-
ney reported by most of the banks, though
the market is not active. The supply of cur
rency is ample and easy. Eastern Exchange
continues close and firm at par buying and
lilo premium selling.
An abstract of the April statement of the
public debt will be found in the telegraph.
According to the figures as t~elegraphed, the
debt has been reduced since April l, de-
Quoting cash in Treasury, S15,e56,674.
By a recent decision of Judge Nelson, of
the United States Circuit Court, delivered at
Albany, the capital of a bank is declared to
be a fixed and not a luctuating amount,
and cannot be altered except by legislative
authority. The surplus earnings of a bank
are therefore not taxable as capital, the
more particularly as a distinct tax is levied
Of surplus earnings by the National Cur
reney Act.
The general markets continue firm, and
trade is good. There is reported a steady
and fair demand for good grades Flour, and
prices are firmly maintained. Wheat is
firm, and there is an active demand for
choice qualities, chiefly Milwaukee spring,
of which stocks are very light. Sales to ar
rive are large. Corn and Oats are quiet and
steady. There was a decided improvement
in the demand for Provisions to-day, and
the market was active, closing at an adj
vance of S1,O0 on Pork and Ic on Lard. In
Butter there is less doing, and Cheese con-
tinues quiet The Grocery trade is moder-
ately active at steady prices. A good de-
nand is reported for refined Petroleum in
bond; free dull. The market is firm.
The receipts and shipments at this point
of Produce and Merchandise, during the
