New YORK, May THE stock market
was firm at the opening this morning.
aud first prices were generally q small
fraction higher than they closed last even
ing, but the Vanderbilts were an excep-
tion to this rule, and break in New
York Central and Lake Shore, which oe-
CURED at tho opening, extended in the
early dealings TO tho rest Of tho list. The
Gould stocks we're we'll supported through
out the day, but tho grangers and the
Vauderbilts made important declines, the
total decline In New York Central from
the closing price last evening amounting
to "a per ceut whilo Lake Shore fell ~
per cent. The rest Of the list yielded an
average OF l per cent, aud with fair
amount Of business the market continued
weak until after 1 p. ~, whom tho de-
cline was checked, and moderate
rally followed tho market, finally
closing steady midway between tho
highest and lowest quotations, and
at prices which are for the most ao-
tive stocks from to II per cont. lower
than they closed last evening. New
York Central was On exception, making
net loss of "a por cent. Conservative
commission houses advise keeping hands
off tho Vanderbilts and the grangers,
while representatives of the Gould party
talk very confidently OF tho so.oalled
Gould stocks, and claim that the weak
spots in the market arc only an indica.
ton Of the breaking away Of those stocks
from the rest of tho list.
The London stock market closed de-
pressed, owing chiefly to the news of the
Russian occupation of Penjdeh. Less conf
dence prevailed in regard to q satisfactory
settlement of the Anglo Russian difficulty,
Bears were less anxious to close accounts.

emanating chiefly from Berlin, one rumoI
being that Mr.. Gladstone was about "a

THE BAD BOY, QUESTION.
An Old Police onioer Upon the Pres
cnt Era OF Juvenile Deprevitv.

cnt Era OF Juvenile DepravIty.
A morning report Of one Of the uptown
station houses lately showed nineteen ar
rests for the previous day. OF this num-
Der fifteen were boys whose ages ranged
between 8 and IS years. Six of the boys
we're charged with bousobreaking, four
were arrested for assault and battery,
and the balance for profanity, disorderly
conduct, and minor ofienscs.
What is the matter with tho boys that
80 many are arrested for crimes and mis-
demeanorsp asked a reporter for THE
REPUBLICAN, as he laid aside the report
TO talk with an old police officer.
The matter, as / look at IL, Is that
there is too much freedom allowed boys
by parents to stay out at nights, and to
20 wherever they please without being
questioned about where thoy 60. They arc
allowed to do as they please at
home, and consequently do likewise when
away from 1t. think, however, that
there is too much fvo-cent blood and
thunder literature allowed to be read,
which naturally leads the boys to FREE
quent places ofamusement whore plays of
the kind they read about arc performed.
This fasoinstes tho boys, and tho next
step is that when boy can't raise money
enough to got into the gallery he steals
something from homo to sell in order to
raise the amount. Then comes the cigar
etto business. following 1t tho pool room,
thon the whisky shop. During these
steps, which take long or short intervals,
according to disposition. tho boy forms
companionships which, though upon the
street he is pleased with, at houo he
is ashamed Of. 1t Is common thing TO
hear boys and years old swear with
the same looseness as Is often heard by
older persons. Boys copy quick, and IL
they are allowed to associate with men
they are all,eyes and ears, and nothing
In tho way of vulgarty es-
capes their notice. There is hardly
q night but what you will find gangs Of
boys hanging around street corners
whisky shops, and places whore mon
would be ashamed to be seen, and often
have hoard language spoken by youngsters
that If spoken in the presence of their
parents would BIO o shocking revelation
/ think the best and only corrective
measure for protecting boys is TO give the
police authority to take boys found violat.
ing law before their parents for punish
mont, and II the parents fail TO punish ia
have them fined in court for derilectior
Of duty. You can rest assured that ar
rests of boys are only mado when it Il
justified, notwithstanding tho hue ant
cry that is so often heard against 1t. TIL,
increase of crime among boys IL startling
and don't see that the reform school re-
forms any. twill be big question soon
How is crime to DO suppressed among
boys?"

Leslie G. Thompson, livery stable keeper,
was placed on trial In tho police court yester-
day morning charged with assaulting John II.
Pratt last Monday evening at the corner of
Ninth street aud Pennsylvania avenue by
running him down. Testimony to the effect
that Mr.. Thompson was driving his team very
fast, made no effort to stop his horses before
tho occurrence, and drove up the avenue
after 1t happened Mr. Pratt testified that he
was knocked about ten or twelve feet, receiv-
ing several painful wounds, being rendered
insensible. The defendant testified that Mr..
Pratt in lodging another carriage backed
against his horses, and he claimed that 1t was
an accident. This evidence was rebutted. In
disposing OF the case, the Judge said There
must be an intent, either expressed or implied,
proved In order to convict a man of crime. 1t
Is MISUNDERSTOOD principle of law that
neglect OF duty Is equivalent to positive in
tent. man In Il carriage Is In n position to
observe the movements of foot passengers aud
he must therefore observe their rights Negli-
gently or willfully running against person is
equivalent to an intent, and II death ensucs,
the party might be guilty of granddaughter"
fine Of $50 was imposed.

Some time ago Hall sold out his paper to

law, for the purpose Of selling electro
magnetic appliances manufactured by DR..
Hill. Mr.. Roys invested some $500 or

moved smoothly until yesterday morn
ing, when Mr.. Hall called at the build

Roys and Armstrong he obtained the
keys to an upper room in which he had
three trunks. He spent some time in the
room arranging their con tonts, and after
ward took them away in an express
