GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND bonds
NRw YORK, Dec. 2l.-Goyernment
bonds dull and steady.
Stocks offered some violent contrasts,
changing in an hour from extreme activity
to midsummer dullness and from decided
weakness to great strength. Nearly half
of the days business was transacted in
the first hour, after which period Of ex-
IRENE dulness was succeeded by mod
ergtely active market, the business of the
day finally footing up fairly large total.
The liquidation for European account
was renewed this morning, but
the heavy covering Of short contracts
after the first few minutes gave remark
ably strong tone to the dealings. Liqui-
dalton was also largely INDUCED in by the
Reading pool, and in the early decline
that stock was the heaviest sufferer.
Foreign selling, however, was brought
TO close before noon, and the pres
sure being removed, the Improvement
in values gained force. The postpone
ment OF the consideration OF the Inter
state commerce bill also gave renewed
confidence to buying in the afternoon.
The opening was again extremely weak,
the declines from last evenings figures
ranging from ! to ID The transactions
were very large, and further decline
was established in the early dealings,
Reading being conspicuous with drop
of IL. The decline was checked in the
first few minutes, however, and strength
as decided by the former weakness was
soon displayed, material advances over
the opening figures being established In
the first hour. The market became
positively dull in the afternoon,
prices remaining steady to firm in the
meantime, but toward p IN. the up
ward movement was again resumed &C.
companied by larger business, and the
market closed strong at about the best
figures Of the day.

Last week we wrote there would be
low barometer, or rain period, about the
14th Inst Upon the l4th, 10Th and 10th
inst. there was very decided disturb
ance OF the atmosphere, the wind upon
the night of the 18th reaching velocity
OF fifty miles an hour, put there was no
ram in Texas. This Is the first instance,
since June /, that our periods have not
been attended with rainfalls, and 1t will
probably occur again In the futuve We
wish the public to we'll bear in mind, that
our periods are periods of atmospheric
disturbance. There may be decided at
mospheric without rain, but there cannot
be rain without atmospheric disturbance,
because rainfall is caused by the
bringing In contact by wind,
werner and colder s,ratas Of
atmosphere. And high winds, even
without rain are q perfect fulhllment of
the correctness Of our periods. Some
months since we wrote and distributed
circulars TO tue farmers OF Tarrant
county that when our periods were not at
tended with rain they would be attended
by high wiaGs and clouds. Prof Hicks
Of St. Louis calls these periods "storm
periodsn We have hesltated to use the
word "storm," fearful some timld per-
sons might think the houses would all be
blown down, while we only intended them
to understand there would be high winds
and probable rainfall Every word we
write IN THE GAZETTE we pay for, and
we cannot say al we would like to edu-
cate the people TO this nnst IMPORTANT
discovery. We stand alone the only free
public writer in the United States upon
the subject From now till January / Is
one of the most difficult seasons Of
the year TO foretell the weather
1t is season that ls annually
liable to what is known as December
disturbance. IL Is similar to the March,
September and June disturbances. Our
next decided period Is about December
10Th inst. We have hopeful chance for
rain then, warm weather coming before
and cold snap afterwards II the per
iod should pass With only wind the cold
snap will be moderate. IL the rainfall is
good the cold snap will be very colo

the family three or four days ago.
When asked by the detective what he
had been summoned for, Mr.. Pate
charged the woman, Mrs. Kaufman,
with poisoning his nine months old in
FAINT. A physician had just left the
house and gave it as his opinion that

medicines used in liniments, and so
blended together that no other medi-

effects it produces. w. ii. Patterson
