Miscellaneous Notes.

The tracks of the New York, West Shore &
Buffalo between New York and Syracuse, were
connected on Saturday.
Negotiations are pending for a traffic agree

The work of stone ballasting the New York.
New Haven Hartford road is expected to be
completed to Hartford, its entire length, by the

A novel car-truck has just been invented, de-
signed TO prevent serious accidents when car or
locomotive trucks run off the track, by prOvid-
ing bevel guard wheels which are secured TO the
same axle with the tread wheels for retaining
the latter in line with the rails in case the tread
wheels jump the track. An axle bearing is also
provided for preventing the axle from dropping
in case of breakage.
Friday last 5000 shares of the Toledo Crncin-
natl d. st. Louis road we're sold in Boston at 2T6
cents on the dollar. The weakness of the stock
is attributed to the possible loss of President
Phillips, and also TO manipulation for the pur-
pose of acquiring cheap stock. The street is
mixed in its attitude toward the securities being
for the hour apparently more bearish than bull

THE lost ATLANTIS.
som1 further Evidences OF Its Loca-
lion I'm the Atlantic.

The belief in Atlantis, the continent that
was and is not, the land that sank beneath
the ocean called Atlantic, Is not confined to
the writer of that curious book lately writ
ten upon the subject. Atlantis may very
probably be myth, vet il has not
yet been proved one. The presence of the
ridge along the center OF the Atlantic, d.
vidIAg it into two deep parallel throughs, not
withstandpg the fact that the crest of the
ridge is 1000 fathoms below the surface, is TO
some an evidence of the former existence Of
this continent, and the islands rising from
the crest raises the evidence TO positive
proof. These islands, Tristan d'Acunchs,
Ascension, st. PauPs Rocks, the Azores
aud Iceland, have usually been sup
posed to be volcanic action, even in our
day. Lately the microscopes have been
investigating this interesting subject. To
look for continent with microscope seems,
as Nature remai ks, as zane proceeding as 10
attempt TO revive an extinct icethyosaurus
with Incifer matches. Yet if m icroscopical
examination of the struc, ure of the rocks oil
one of these islands should prove that they
are not of volcanic origin, but similar TO the
Oldest rocks of the globe, one more argument
in favor of Atlantis would be made

The Assassin Of DR.. Glenn.

SAN FRANCISCO, February ia Willow
Dispatch says: Heron Miller, the man who
murdered DR.. Glenn, is about fifty five years
old and married. He was addicted to intern
perance, which was the cause Of his dis
charge. Miller has known Glenn intimate
for many years. Glenn started him in bust.
ness, but through dissipation Miller wss uu-
successful and was finally forced 10 accept a
mental situation at nominal salary. Glenn
found him in this plight and gave him sit
uation as book-keeper. Monday Glenn found
him intoxicated. When reprim anded Miller
applied very insolent aud insulting language
to his benefactor, who at once discharged
him. Since his disch arge Miller has been
hanging around Jacipto under the pretext of
hunting. 1t is now thought that he was only
waiting an opport unity TO execute his terri
bic design. After surrenderiog Miller was
taken to Coluss and jailed. Public indigna-
ton is intense at Willow, and it is thought
the prisoner would have been lynched had
he been placed in custody there. While on
the way to jsil Miller seemed perfectly Gem.
posed. No definite cause is known yet for
the assassination. Miller was drinking heav-
lily since being discharged, but all say that
he was perfectly sober when he committed
the deed.

KAnEaNnFINAsCE.

The exchanges, says the New York Public
in lis last issue, show on the week real
improvement outside of New York, and in
New York the sales of stock werJ largely ill.,
creased. At six out Of nine cities of the
first class the exchanges were larger than
they we're year ago; Cincinnati, St. Louis
and New Orleans show little decrease.
Nine out OF sixteen minor cities report gains.
The weeks exchanges at Memphis amounted
to 81 ,345, 147 against 1891 1856 the previous
year, gain Of sos per cent, and sgainst
the previous week, which amounted to ST.
10000, gain of 1915 per cent Dealings in
wheat, corn and petroleum were much larger
than during the week before, those in cotton
were relatively small. The state of things
still suggests caution, but it would be great
mistake to suppose that business ''has gone
TO the dogs" though serious endorsements
exist. When Congress and the tariff sre out
of the way, expansion, and not always of a
healthy character, may be expected 10 fol-
low; but the floods of the West, aud possible
floods in the Southwest, may have an
obstructive influence. Money is plentiful
and easy rates tend 10 promote speculation;
the present estimate is that grain may go
higher and cotton and petroleum lower. The
stock of the latter is large and the produc.
ton is in excess of consumption. There is
some apprehension as TO the effect that
storms, frosts, thaws and foods may have on
the winter wheat. A large amount Of
grain Is in cars delayed by blockades OF
snow and water. The February number
of Clews & Co.'s New York financial circular
looks for approaching difficulties to some of
the principal RAILROAD and telegraph COM
panies. Their large profits have induced
rival companies, which have made immense
profits by selling out TO the companies they
were bulk to oppose; their success induces
other efforts in the same direction. Such
monstrous efforts TO monopolize cannot 90
beyond a certain limit; when that comes
there will be chaos. The earnings of rail
roads, the same authority says, though large
are not satisfactory. The foods and the
consequent destruction of grades, culver,s
and bridges, may cause delays which will
send much of the grain the roads should
carry 20 water conveyance. The vast in
crease of railroad building has created an i'm
meuseamount of new stoke, which, when
they come upon he market, will have a
disturbing effect, producing heavy pressure
upon prices. The circular sees little i'm
provement 10 trade since its previous month
ly report, but there are signs Of fair ult-
mate demand for goods from the interior.
Manufactures, importers and commission
houses are acting on policy of caution,
being warned by repeated failures, and I'M
certainty as 10 the tariff settlement Init
