New YORK, May 5.-There was much
weaker feeling at the opening to-day, and
a small decline. After the first trading a
rally occurred, but before II o'clock this
had been lost. In the later trading bet
ter feeling prevailed, Northwestern leading
an advance all along the line. Stronger
prices are predicted for Monday. Money
was easy at 3115@4 per cent.
The Herald to-day, says there is no
question but that capitalists are craving
are ready to pay full prices for
them. Lately there have been liberal
buyers of West Shore bonds at prices
which advanced from day to day. 1t has
generally been supposed that the bonds OF
this road had been placed upon terms
which brought to the company some 3d.
100000 cash over and above all require
ments for the completion of the line. A
circular dated and signed by Winslow,
Lance & Co. would appear to do away with
this belief. 1t seems that of the original
$50,0O0,0O0 fifty years 5 per

$4,117,0OO offered for sale. Winslow,
Lance & Co. invite bids for the same at
their Office up to p. m. Thursday, May
10, at which time they will be opened in
presence of John A. Stewart, president of
the United States Trust company, F. N.
Lawrence, president of the New York
stock exchange, and 81. F.Spaulding, presi-
dent of the Central Trust company. There
is no questian but that these bonds will be
literally bid for, but in view of the fact
that their quotation has lately been, so to
speak, artifcally "chinned up" to the
preposterous price of 8214c, it is expect
ed that bona fide sale bid of 70 to 1919
will secure the lot AS further explana-
ton of the above, it may be we'll to state
that the original issue of bonds amounted
to $50,000,000, that a so-called syndi-
cate took $20,OOO,OOO, that $26,OOO,OOO
were disposed of elsewhere at par, that
the $4,117,000 referred to above, are still
open to the highest bidder.
The announcement of Mr.. Vanderbilt's
retirement after less than six years serv
ice as president since his fathers death,
brought an unusual number of Wall street
men to the Windsor hotel and the other
uptown resorts of the brokers last even
ing. The view most generally expressed
was that the Vanderbilt family had dispos-
ed of their holding in the several proper
tes, and therefore desired to shift the re-
possibility of the management upon 9th
or shoulders, and consequently the talk
upon the Vanderbilt properties was very
blueish. Intimate friends and railroad
associates of Mr.. Vanderbilt say that he
has not disposed of his interests in the
properties, and that he is attached to them
as much as ever.

rather disappointing. The increase in the
winter packing has been disapppoint-
ment, for the reason that the majority be-
lieved that there would be a
decrease. Then it was argued two
months ago that the summer packing
would show a considerable increase, and
while it is now very generally conceded
that the outlook does not promise any in
crease, the fact that there was a prospect
early in the season for gain in this par
licular, deferred many from buying, argu-
ing no doubt that if we were to have an
increased production during the summer,
values would naturally tend to a lower
range. 1t is a fact undisputed that
stocks abroad of everything in the
hog product line are small, while the
minor distributing markets of our own
country are carrying only enough to meet
current demands. This is evidenced by
the character of their purchases at manu-
featuring points. Some claim, and quite
probably with reason, that the new de-
paroure in the beef shipping line is not
without effect on the hog product trade.
But at the same time beef is not pork,
and does not and cannot take its place
among our greatest consumers, the laboring
classes, for the reason that the latter IS
the cheaper. In other words a round of
pork will furnish more nutriment than
the same amount of beef. All this being
granted, TIE reduced stocks at minor
points and reduced production, present
and prospective, it does seem reasonable
to anticipate that the consumers will
awaken to the actual condition and con-
clude that the product of the hog is worth
all that is being asked for lit, with indica-
cations more favorable to increase than
diminishing rates of values. To be sure
the labor troubles at various points
throughout the country and the quiet pre-
vailing in many large manufacturing in
dustries tend to reduced consumption,
but we must not forget that the aggregate
stocks of product are not larger than a
year ago, the production much smaller and
as we consumed all of last years stocks at
relatively high prices, it is but fair to pre-
sumo that all will eventually be wanted
this year, and as we promise to produce
less there does not seem to be any tangible
reason why good prices should not prevail;
this, too, on a Legitimate basis. There
seems but little reason to doubt that the
stocks at Chicago are concentrated in few
and strong hands, and to aconsiderable
extent by men who are thoroughly posted
on the situation, men who know what the
prospective wants of the trade are. 1t is
very difficult matter to pay
the present prices for hogs and
sell the product at a profit
at present market quotations. At the same
time our packers are anxious to cut hogs,
and several packing houses now idle would
be opened up if the receipt of hogs would
admit, evidence of itself that producers
have faith in the future of the market, so
that looking at the situation in all its
phases, there is little on which to base any
serious retrogade movement in values.
According to the result of recent vote,
from May 1 to Sept. l, the board of trade
rooms will not be opened on Monday IN
til 1920 o'clock, one hour later than on
other days.

SHOT BY CRANK.
ST.. LOUIS, Mo-, May 5.--Wm. Pechalls,
travelling salesman of the machinery firm
of S. q. Cockrell & Co., Dallas, Tex. was
shot and killed this evening by Chas. K.

to hail from Carrollton, Ill.
DEsPERADoEs AT LARGE.
ST.. LOUIS, May 5.--Advices from Van
Buren, county say that section of the coun-
try is being held in terror by two escaped
convicts named James Miller and Thomas
Katharin, who have made the almost mac
cessible part of the Boston mountains their
refuge, and from which they emerge to
commit all manner of depredations on
property, not even stopping at murder
These acts have continued until almost the
entire population of that region became
aroused, and at last accounts a party of
twenty men, including some of the best
citizens of Van Buren, county, under COM
mand of Col. Richard Hoe, started out to
hunt down the outlaws. Should they be
found they will be killed on sight, but as
Miller and Katharin are we'll armed and
most desperate men, it is feared some of
their pursuers will be slain before they are
exterminated.

All:s & Williams, Allis, Gilfllan & Will
Gams, and ultimately of Allis Allis, the
latter, his son, who survives him. He &C
quired fortune by his practice, but in
the disastrous year of 1874 it took wings
and left him comparatively poor. Such
adversely, however, had no intimidations
for him. His buoyant will forever lifted
him above the reach of ''clouds and
storms.' Most of US with his broken
health and waning years would have de-
serted the field, but his Signals went up for
closer battle" In 1878 his health CON-
pletely failed. To adopt the language of
Mrs. Allis, who kindly furnished me data
for this memoir, sit was only his indomita-
BILE will and unyielding energy that
brought him through the awful year of
1873"
He partially regained his health and re-
sumed his work. After winter of unusual
activity he sought relaxation and rest at
the home of his daughter, Mrs. DeCou of
Trenton, N. j., in whose arms and near
whose heart he died. The man of work,
the man of duty, died as he had lived with
an unfaltering trust" the calmness of a
philosopher and the faith of Christian.
RESOLVED, That in the death of the late
Lorenzo Allis, Esq, the public and the bar
of Minnesota have suffered a great bereave
ment.
RESOLVED, That uncommon intellectual
gifts, thoughtful and studious tempera-
ment, unusual industry, with the furniture
of general scholarship, large and severe
legal training, strengthened and rounded
by an extensive practice in the courts of
first and last resort-surmounted by the
coronal of virtuous character, carried
him to the summit of his profession in
the state, and equipped our deceased
brother with the graces which compel the
preservation of his memory as conspic-
uous example of social, civic and profess
sional excellence.
ReSolred, That his heroic battle with an
inferior constitution, throughout his entire
career among US, and his apparent recov-
cry of health within the past few years,
giving promise of continued activity and
usefulness to ripe old age, his sudden
death gave shock of sorrow and surprise
at once to the public and his breth-
ren of the profession, among whom
he had so long moved and acted as pat
tern gentleman and lawyer.
RESOLVED, That we sorrow with his be-
reaved family, and while commencing
edCu uouper W tno care VI Hlu WHO gave
and hath taken away" we offer them the
assurance of our sincere sympathy.
Tears for the sorrowful, freely be shed,
Tears for the sorrowful, tears for the dead
Resolved, That these resolutions be en-
crossed and copy presented to the
family of the deceased and
that they be reported to the dis
trict court of Ramsey county, and the su-
preme court of the state, with a request
that they be made records of these courts.

Stick to him until you marry the good

DR.. w. A. Robertson, the genial and
popular Representative of St. Landry
parish, paid flying visit to New Or
leans yesterday, and was warmly greet
ed by a host OF friends who were glatl
to see him enjoying robust health as
well as satisfaction over the prospe-
rous condition of himself and neigh
bors. A contented mind is a great
boon, and DR.. Robertson seems to be
one Of the few active leaders in politi-
cal life who are so blessed.-City Item,

alias Office seekers in this parish now,
active or otherwise, who are content, we

preaching political campaign.

The New Orleans States, speaking of
the murder Of Il policeman there, says:
The dastardly murder of John Cotfey,
one of the oldest and most efficient
members of the police, by negro gam
bier and desperate, on Franklin street,
yesterday, adds another bloody chapter
to our history of crime. The simple
story of the crime is so fearful that it
requires no comment to heighten it's
tragic aspect. Prompt trials and prompt
hangings, and good deal of the latter
is required to repress such beastly
wretches as this negro murderer. The
ease and facility with which murderers
not only escape the gallows, but also
the penitentiary, emboldens this dan
gerous class of the population, and con-
fdent of immunity from punishment
they give free rein to their most bru-
tai passions and bloody instincts. The
murdered policeman was a brave and
vigilant officer he had served faithful
ly many years ON the police, and we
learn, leaves large family in great
need.

STATE OFFICERs.-There is consider.

GERS for the election that will come of

Judging from the tone of the articles
it looks very much as it there is going
to be pretty new deal.
This will certainly occur unless some
of the transactions lately carried on in
headquarters receive some explanations
more satisfactory than any that have
been given. Not long since, in one OF
the Departments, money that has been
paid for public lands, which should
have gone into the Treasury, has been
intercepted, and some State scrip paid
into the Treasury in lieu thereof, which
was not exactly legal transaction. A
public officer has refused the right to a
citizen to examine his books in order to
see to what extent this pillaging Of the
public funds has been carried. The
School. Board OF the City of New Or
leans has been permitted to draw from
the Treasury ten or twelve thousand
dollars to which it was not entitled,
and when an effort to rectify that error
has been made by the State Superin-
tendent of education, he is met with an
injunction fOfOlddlng MIN TO 90 SO.
