Gotham Gossip.

New York, lit is generally be-
lieved that stocks are depressed or
Wall street, to enable insiders to
buy at low figures, and profit by the
advance. The passage in the as
sembly of the unpopular broker tax
bill aided materially in the depres-
sion. It taxes each trade instead of
the monthly total. Trunk line
troubles also had bad influence
There were soon evident, however,
strong sustaining influences, and the
market became steadily strong.
especially when it was reported that
trunk lines had adjusted their
differences. There was a good de-
mand for coupon So at full prices,
upon the news that the Administra-
ton would not favor refunding any
further. There have been large
transfers of elevated stocks, but it is
stated that Gould, Dillon and others
won't be candidates as directors.

measures as were necessary to main
tain rates.

About five o'clock last evening the
rumor spread upon the street that young
Maurice Farnbaker, who lives on Seventh
street, between the avenues, had attempted
to commit suicide by taking dose of
laudanum, but had survived after having
taken a strong emetic, administered bya
physician who was hastily summoned. The
facts do not seem to have been quite so Sc
rious as reported. The young man was at
home with his wife, and suddenly COM
planned of feeling bad at the stomach. From
some cause she became alarmed, and
sent for doctor, who, when he arrived,
pronounced the patient not in any danger
from any cause. In fact Farnbaker was out
enjoying game of billiards at the very
time, he was said to be laying in the throes
of death from the effects Of self-adminS-
tered dose of poison.
