A LACK OF FORCE AND DIRECTION.
Monday, March 26-p. m.


The stock market was active in the first hour
to-day and the movement Of prices was downward
but in the subsequent dealings there was strange
lack of both force and direction. Nearly one-haH
of the total business was done in the opening
hour and the transactions in Reading during the
day were nearly one-half Of the whole volume. 1t
may be perceived easily that, in the afternoon
hours the general market presented few features OF
interest. Reading resumed the leadership and, IN
addition TO its great activity was exceptional also
by final loss Of IA per cent. No other stock
approached it in either respect. st. Paul was
second at decline of l per cent, and Missouri
Pacific third in point of activity and alone
in scoring an advance Of l 1-2 per cent. The
quarterly dividend on Missouri Pacific stock was
not passed, although the yearly rate was reduced
from to per cent. The action Of the directors
was made known just before the close of business,
and on that account was not influential on the
course of prices The advance in the stock oc-
Cured before the directors had assembled The
general market closed about l-2 per cent lower
than on Saturday, and although the last prices
were IA To l-2 per cent above the lowest point,
the closing was quiet and featureess.
The disappointment over the missouri Paclhc
dividend may explain the weakness of Reading
aud few other vulnerable stocks. Poverty OF
invention has not always been n bear character
istic, but the operators for fall seem 10 have
dcton that the Reading reorganization will tumble
to pieces because the company will not be able
to aoat its new general mortgage bonds imme-
diately. Their only other resource was intelligence
from Chicago, which again threatened an extension
of the labor troubles on Western railroads. The
field of the strike greatly enlarged and, If
Chicago dispatches can be believed, the principal
lines East TO Buffalo are to be " tied up without
delay To give color to these gloomy predictions
Canada Southern stock was forced down per
cent, but Lake Shore yielded only 3-4 from It's
hos wit a Of 4
cent. 1t may reasonably be expected that fresh
rumors about the passing Of dividends viii soon
be started although it would not be safe to mark
the exact spot where lightning may strike. The
condition Of the railroads between Chicago and
the Atlantic seaboard is fortunately such that the
bolt Is not likely To do much damage
THE DAY IN THE BOND MARKET.
Government bonds were dull and virtually un-
changed although the asking prices for the
per cents were shaded. The closing quotations
were as follows:

Managing the Cellar.

If the cellar openings are manipu-
lated correctly, the place may be kept
cool and dry during the summer. The
openings should be mostly closed dur
ing the day and opened after the out
door air has become cool at night. If
kept clean, the cellar will not need a.
great deal of airing. but ventilation
and dryness will prevent it becoming o.
unhealthy. Lime will absorb the mois-
ture and noxious gases. if they cannot
be expelled OF their formation prevent
ed. Charcoal is also a great absorber
of gases. In some parts of the south
whitewash is the great agent of puri-
fcation and cleanliness in cellars, the
walls and ceiling being coated with it.
The temperature of a cellar may be
lowered by putting tub of broken ice
and salt in it. Double windows are
made to keep the temperature at the
right point in the summer as well as in
the winter. Keep the cellar well drain
ed and well ventilated and there will
be less fever, less diphtheria and few
er diseases that breed from dampness
and the putrifaction of vegetables
