THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK.

THE RFOPENING OF THE STOCK EACHANGE
ARTICULATION LIKELY TO BIZ LIMITED AND UNEXClT-
rsa-rrIE RANKS DEFER ACTION TO REMOVE THE
ROCK IN FOREIGN ExCHANGE-TIIE SUSPENDED
uousRs RFsuMING-THE TRADES NOT GENERALLY
INJURED BY THE PANIC.
Yesterday in Wall-st. was tho most quiet seen
,.here in fortnight. Except in Broadst, where the
street brokers had improvised an exchange ana
beloved themselves hOaTse over trades never con-
simulated, the whole region was comparatively
quiet The only notable events OF the DAY were tne
revision of the rnles of the Stock Exchange pre-
1iminary to its reopening to-day, and the tutlie
efforts of the Produce Exchange to induce the Clear
iDg-house Association to buy exchange and thus
facilitate the movement of the crops.
The resolutions of the Stock Exchange Governing
Committee were generally accepted as of that cen
.crvatve spirit which closed the Exchange on sat
~nrdav week last and in the interest OF close deal
ing. The most important resolution makes inopera-
five for three days the rule under which brokers
NAV be sold out for non-deivery. Practically IL
ryes three days grace to the brokers who have not
vet settled the transactions of week before last.
The reopenng of the Exchange is generally looked
ppon with favor by all who advocate the suspension
Of the rule but many think IT should remain lnoper-
ative for ten OF fifteen days
The proposition of the Produce Exchange was
neither accepted nor rejected by the Clearinghouse
Association. 1t provided that the banks of the
Clearing house should buy bills of exchange with
bills of lading attached, paying for them IN regular
Clearinghouse certificates, issuing new ones until
4he block in foreign exchange is removed. Moses
Taylor led the opposition to the acceptance of the
proposition. 1t was finally referred to the Loan
Committee, an action whose meaning Is not yet
slearly apparent.

A Very Remarkable Story.

There lived in Brooklyn, not long ago, a
man possessed Of devil He had inner
tied the devil from his father in the first
place, and had nursed it until it grew so
strong it took entire possession Of him.
The devil was very familiar one, and its
name was Rum. The man had many noble
instincts, and better than all these, he had
a loving, faithful, brave wife, who made
skillful war upon the demon, her husbands
master. Recognizing the fact that her hus-
band was under an empowering impulse,
that he lopgod and struggled manfully to
free himself from the passion for drink, she
bent all the energies Of her woman.nature
to the task of helping him. She loved and
suffered and toied, until at last the loving
and suffering and toiling accomplished their
purpose. She took her husband by the
hand and shared with him his struggle. un.
ill., after years Of labor, she oyercame his
devil, and saw him free man again. Her
battle with rum had been fierce one, tax
ing and wasting her strength sorely, but
she was conqueror at last. Her husband
stood upon manly feet, and showed no sign
offaling again, Several years passed away,
and this reformed man fell i'll of consumption
The distinguished physician, from whose
lips we have the story, prescribed alcoholic
stimulants as the only means possible Of
prolonging his life. The poor wife was in
terror and begged the physician to recall

Tops can be cut one or two weeks before

Let hand take up an armful of tops or

the same time another hand places down
his armlul at a suitable distance, and leans
