EHow THEY Do IT IN ScoTLAND.-1n Glas-
gov, Scotland, the brokers have adopted q
new method Of stock speculation. They do
not sell short or create corners, but they buy
and sell prospective dividends. A pays b
three per cent for future dividend on rail-
road stock. If the railroad passes its divi-
dend, A is the loser. If the dividend is four
per cent, B is gamer. This thing is carried
to such an extent that the following circular
has been issued by the Committee of the
Stock Exchange: attention having been
drawn to reported large dealings in prcspec-
tive dividends of certain railway companies,
they think it right to express their disap-
proval Of those transactions, and to declare
that such can not be recognized by them, or
allowed to take pace during the business
meeting of the association"

1t is significant fact that while loud de-
mands are being made from the West tor
more money, national banks, and notably
those in the West, are surrendering circula-
ton because there is no demand for the
money, which has been lying idle in their
vaults. Last month the amount Of national
bank circulation surrendered was two and
oneh half millions in excess of that issued,
and the total decrease in national bank circu-
lation since the 1st of July last is over
$50 $1,000. Treasurer New, who has just re-
turned to Washington from the West, says
the banks there have more money than they
can use with profit, and are preparing to sur
render circulation and take up their bonds
Baltimore American.
If such are the facts, they tend to show that
in the existing stagnation Of business the
money supply is greater than the demand.

The Lebanon poisoning case.

Some three weeks since Mr.. j, III,
Kendrick, and family of Lebanon n H..
were poisoned by drinking tea, There
seems to be no doubt ON this point as
those who did not partake ofthe tea were
not sick, and Mrs. Kendrick died. AT
first the case seemed mystery, but sus-
picions were aroused against Mrs. Will
son who has been employed for few
weeks as domestic in the family, who
did not partake of the tea. She pretend
ed to be sick and went to neighbours
where her sickness suddenly departed
and she ate a hearty meal. She still de-
mics her guilt, but it appears that she
knows all about arsenic, and has been
known to purchase it. Her last husband
died mysteriously and sudden, and she
is supposed to have poisoned him. Her
twin children, who died young are sup
posed also to have met death at her
hands. She could have poisoned Mrs.
Kendrick from no other motive than
pure malice. The revelations yet to be
made of this woman, should they prove
true, will make her one of the greatest
of modern times.

question of adjournment was under con

A RAILROAD RACE FOR LIFE An
exciting race occurred on the Lehigh
Valley railroad ten miles above Pittston
Pa, between passenger train and the
flood, last week. Mr.. r. A. Packer, SUI
printendent of the road was on the cars.
The track was flooded axle deep, and
the tide was descending rapidly behind
the train. To go forward was to en-.
counter unknown danger To retreat
was an impossibility. The engineer hes.
itated. The flood was rising Let her
go, said Mr.. Packer. 1t is race for
life or death" The excitement among
the passengers was intensea as the engineer
sounded his whistle and the train dashed
splashing through the water at full
speed, the slabs Of ice pelting the rear
car, which was considerably smashed.
When the train reached Coxton, three
miles above Pittston the round house
was flooded, and few minutes before
the telegraph operator had been forced
to abandon the office to save his life.
The train arrived in Pittston ahead of
time.

Disaster at New Orleans.
80 LIVES LOST.


A terrible disaster occurred at New
Orleans ON Friday, by which three
steamers were burnt and some thirty
lives lost.
A fire broke out about clock in the
afternoon in the blacksmith shop of the
steamer John Kyle lying at the foot of
Poydras street. The Kyle lay between
the Jessie Taylor below and the Export
err above The Bodman lay above and
next to the Exporter. Soon after the
alarm was given the tug boat Ella Wood
came up and commenced throwing water
on the burning vessel but without effect
Captain Hutchinson of the Kyle was
standing on the front deck when the fire
broke out. He promptly notified all on
board to leave, as it was apparent the
boat could not besaved. William Brown,
chief clerk, who opened the safe and
took out the money and papers, was the
last to leave the Kyle. which had mean
time been set adrift. In escaping he was
enveloped in flames and severely burned,
but jumped into the river and swan
ashore.
Many persons went on board the
Charles Bodman merely as spectators OF
the terrible scene before them, and when
that boat foated out, were themselves
victims in the frightful scene they had
been Witnessing.
