5l2@7l2. Sterling exchange dull but steady
and unchanged. There was very little doing
in the stock market this morning, but 1t ex-
hibited strong tone and material advances
were established in some stocks by the days
transactions. London was moderate
buyer and the room professionals on the ex-
pectation of another favorable bank state
ment were inclined to cover the shorts while
the trading in the leading stocks showed evil
dences of inside support Chicago was doing
very little, and the only weak spot in the list
heaviest trading was in Reading. most of the
interest was in Missouri Pacific, and
both Of these stocks moved up
under purchasing orders by brokers,
supposed to be acting for inside interests.
After the early demand was supplied bust
ness Stacked off materially and prices
sagged off small fractions, but the unusually
heavy gain in reserve shown by the banks
stimulated buying in the last few minutes,
and most of the list attained the highest
figures at the close. The opening was steady
but prices began to rise Immediately, with
Reading, Missouri Pacific, ST. Paul and Union
Pacific showing most activity. The advance
eliminated toward IL O'Clock, and the
market became very dull and featureless,
but after the issue Of the bank statement
there was renewal of the interest and
prices again advanced, the market closing
quiet but firm to strong at about the best
prices reached. Manitoba became a feature
by its sharp gain toward noon. Everything
OH the active list, except Richmond and
West Point. is higher, but advances
are confined TO fractions only, Missouri
Pacific leading with gain of rs per cent,
but Manitoba ia. Railroad bonds were
again quite active. the business Of the two
hours amounting to S766,OO0 and prices

feature being the sharp advance in Wheeling

Three Ghosts ABB DAD.


Danbury Special Pittsburg Dispatch.
This town is much exercised over the
strange rafting and shaking of doors,
windows and blinds, and even, in some
instances, the crockery on the shelves.
The first to notice it was Horace Cable,
a florist, living on Spring street, and
night they were awakened by the noise,
and they have been disturbed by it at
intervals ever since. James B. Wild
man, a member of the grocery firm of
Peck q Wildman, also noticed it, and
had to get up and plug his window
frames in order to get some sleep. The
same phenomenon has been observed
by residents on Elm, New and Har-
mony streets, though in lesser degree.
1t has been suggested that the jar was
caused by the fall of immense volumes
of water over the dam of Whites pond,
sheet of water at the head of Spring
street, but Mr.. Cable and others reject
this theory, because they have lived in
this is the first time these singular man
lfestationS have occurred. Mr.. Cable
said to reporter that on Tuesday night
he got I'D and took hold of window to
stop it shaking. He felt distinct
shock of electricity in his arm and body.
The theory of the dam is secuted also,
because no trembling or shaking of the
ground is felt, and also because the
phenomenon is witnessed in houses at
intervals, and seems to skip some of the
dwellings.
An idea has been advanced that Dan
bury is over gas well or a cavern, and
that the force of the water going over
the dam has given the town shaking,
L. {hn ~ -
thin. The town is built on a lime
foundation, or at least that portion in
the. vicinity of Whites pond. Whatever
the cause there is considerable alarm,
and people are anxious to have salts
factory solution of the mystery.

A Ghost in a Mine.
San Francisco Examiner.
The North Star mine ghost has been
Investigated. According to some miners
strange noises have been heard in the
depths, but that is the case in mines
when not great deal of work is going
on, as in the holidays. A lonely watcher
in the silent depths hears the timbers
creaking and cracking under pressure
of the ground, and the sounds strike
the ear heavily. A falling small stone
gives the sound as of cannon shot. The
J ghostly noises in the North Star are &C
counted for in that way by the unbe-
1ieverS. A report is in circulation that
one has not only seen but talked with
the underground ghost. The dOubterS
say that the mans vision was the result
of too much Christmas cheer, and
that the ghost he saw was close
kin to the snake in an inebriateS boot.
Several assert that at least three men
have seen the ghost in the mine, and
that the apparitiOn is that of diapha-
nous man bearing shadOwy, long knife
in his right hand. A reliable gentleman
living near the North Star mine says
+ the ghost there is matter of twelve
years standing. The appearance used
to be that of a man:zin miners working
clothes and carrying a lunch can. When
approached this ghost would 60 to an
told shaft connected with the North
Star underground works and slow y
sink down the shaft. This ghost never
made footprint, even in light snow.
Investigation showed human bones in
the shaft down which the ghost de-
scended. The bones were buried and
the ghost supposed to be laid.
1t is now the theory that this latest
ghost is that of the man whe murdered
the owner of the bones. 81
