RALwAYs-Bonds active and prices gen
orally strong.
SrocKs.SThe market has been some
what irregular but moderately active all
day. Prices opened about steady, and
under heavy selling yielded attraction during
the first hour, then rallied and continued
steady on slight fluctuations until after |
o clock when they became strong again, and
the highest prices of the day were realized
About the beginning of the last hour, under
tie influence OF heavy selling movement
By the bears, and disposition to realize by
room traders prices again became weak,
and in many cases reached the lowest quo
tations of the day. Shortly before 3
o'clock this was the general course OF
the market. New York Central, however,
was weak nearly ell day, and the net loss for
the day was Il. Lackawanna was also
weak. The loss in the final quotation Is !
per cent. Changers were strong most OF
the day. Omaha preferred is unchanged.
Oregon Transcontinentalis up /. Louis
Vile & Nashville shows gain Of !. The
other changes were for small fractions. The
market closed weak. Leading bull houses
insisted to-day that Vanderbilt stocks must
separate from the rest OF the market. They
claim that they are receiving no
support and are only clog on what would
otherwise be a decidedly strong market.
They insist that the Vanderbilt party lost
heavily when both New York Central and
Lake Shore were much higher than they
are selling at present, and that their scheme
now is to depress prices as much as possible
before buying again. Bear leaders in the
market at present are short as much as 5OO,-
600 shares of stock. Leading bear opera
tors have been taking a much more active
interest in the market for the past few days,
including today, than for a long time pre-
vious.
Transactions. 266 600 shares.

THERE is good old book which says
"The way of the transgressor is hard" The
same venerable tome declares, "Be sure
thy sin viii find thee out" What is true
of individuals is equally true of communi-
ties. Bad government is as sure to bring
ruin on a municipality as bad morals are to
wreck man. Cincinnati Is finding this
out In manner that should be warning
to other cities. The Cincinnati Times-Star
Of yesterday has long article exposing
the danger to the cty's business from the
present reign OF corruption and the alarm
with which the future is regarded by whole
sale merchants. After calling attention to
the announced removal of the large notion
house of Strobel IL Willlin TO New York by
New Years, it speaks Of the rumor that by
January thirty or moro Of the leading Gin
cinnati business houses will be making ar
rangements to remove to New York or
Chicago. 1t calls attention 10 the docal-

The New Assis tant Secretary.

William L. Smith, of New York, who
was appointed last night to succeed Mr..
Coon us assistant secretary OF the treasury,
is a well known Democratic politician OF
the Tilden school.
The appointment Is admirably timed so
far as relates to federal influence in state
election. 1t will encourage "the boys" to
work with greater zeal for the election Of
Hill and Jones, hut we do not believe the
success Of that ticket can be assured by any
means that can possibly be employed.
The state of New York would seem to
have lien on most OF the important posi-
tions in the Treasury Department 1t now
has the Secretary and his two assistants,
the treasurer, the solicitor, and other prom
inent treasury officials. Considering that
the Empire state has the Presidency and
the secretaryship of the Navy Department,
It is not improbable that Democrats in other
states may fail to be delighted with her
continued prominence in the gathering in OF
good things.
But whatever else may be said or left un-
said in relation to this appointment, civil
service rcformers will not fail to note the
time and manner of Mr.. Coon's retirement,
as well us of the filling Of the vacancy.

1t was said at the white house yesterday
that the vacancies on the civil service COM

Presidents return from Buffalo on Wednes-

been offered him, and he has no aspirations
whatever In that direction.

MARRIED by HIMSELF.
A Clergyman WEEDS Maiden Without
Help or witnesses.

New York TTibunel
Within the last three years curious ro-
nance has been unfolding itself In a corner
of the little village of Tarrytown. In one
of its aspects 1t has given rise to legal ques
tions which the heroine is now most
desirous Of having settled. The said
heroine was born to humble station, but
was fond Of reading. BY the time she
was 1s years Of age she had read much. She
was tall and slender, and attractive by rca-
son Of her intelligence. Withal, she was
ignorant of society and its ways, except as
the latter purported TO be taught in the
light literature Of which she had imbibed
deeply. OF the realities OF life she knew
little. Into Tarrytown came dashing
young clergyman of peculiar type, who
carried firearms and had shot at a fellow
student while ut college in Virginia.
lie became interested in the gill, whom
ho flattered by his visits and attentions,
and to whom he read his sermons for
criticism and the 'poems OF their choice"
for mutual delectatIon. His visits grew
moro and more frequent, One evening he
asked her TO marry him. Regarding this as
joke, the girl said yes. Afterward he re-
ferrcd to this as n binding promise. His
next step was to repeat to her portion OF
the marriage service of the Episcopal
Church, getting her to make the responses,
telling her that 1t was merely form OF en-
gagement Then he told her that they were
married hard and fast.
All this time the clergyman had been try
ing toget the girl to go TO picnics and places
Of amusement with him, but In vain. She
had never met him except in her fathers
house. Now he told her that they were
married, but as his church did not wish n
married pastor they must keep 1t secret
until he was In n position to acknowledge
her. They could, however, spend their
vacation together. The girl steadily re-
fused TO believe in the legality Of
the marriage. Then the clergyman
filed out one Of his marriage certih-
cate blanks, signed it himself and got a
firm of New York lawyers to certify to the
correctness Of the document aud the legality
of the marriage. BY alternately threatening
to kill himself and her, he tried TO make the
girl sign 1t also. She would not however.
One day In q ut Of anger he destroyed it be-
fore her eyes. Then he filed out another
and got brother clergyman TO sign 1t, or
else forged the name, and had still another
law firm put the imprint Of their approval
upon its legality, He was again unsuc-
cessful In making her sign this one,
and II, too, was finally de-
stroyed. After falling In these repeated at
tempts TO make the girl acknowledge the
marriage, the clergyman gave up the con-
test and left the town. During the two
years which have passed since the girl has
pondered the question, "Married or single?"
until she is well-nigh distracted. Legal ex-
| perts consulted by her fatty contradict one
another as to the law bearing on the point,
and she hesitates to appeal to the courts. as
she shrinks from publicity.

The trouble in Denmark between King
Christian and his parliament, md which is
now reported to have eliminated in riotous
demonstrations at Copenhagen and through
out the kingdom, has been going on for q
dozen years, has resulted In some very sharp
passes between the ministry and the houses
ofparliament during the past two years, and,
with some qualifications, is precisely the same
trouble that Charles Stuart had with his par
lament more than two hundred years ago
and for which, being obstinate, he lost his
kirgly head, the main difference between
the English struggle and the present Danish
struggle being this, that the English kings
were aggressive and drove parliament to
oppose their arbitrary measures, whereas
in the present struggle the radical members
of the rigsdag, or parliament, feeling the
impulse OF constitutional England and re-
publican France, have been the aggressors
and In sense forced the king and his min
istry into the arbitrary measures out OF
which the present conflict has sprung.
