NEW YoRFeruary 13.-The week at the stock
exchange opened with very dull market, in
which transactions possessed little interest, eX-
cept to traders and scalpers. What little news
there was was bearsh, and a general bearish
feeling prevailed, especially in the early por-
ton of the day. The usual food of rate cutting
advances was missing. but news from the West
was scarcely less diseouraging, though the
heaviest pressure fiom the bears was directed
against the Vanderbilt's, Canada Southern and
Lake Shore being affected most. Transactions
in remainder of list were generally of a scalp
ing order. and fluctuations were confined to
the narrowest limits. Coal stocks were COM
paratively firm, and Reading, toward the close
showed considerable strength, but others, with
exception of Laekawanna were dull and fea-
tlreless. Milwaukee, Lake Shore, and Western

business. but a close showed largest decline for
the day of three-fonrths per cent. Opening
was very dull and heavy. and further losses
were sustained in early trading. which, how

movement was not of long duration, however.

Throughout greater; NJ Of the day But the

Hints for Amateur Tranps.

Among our summer and fall diversions
walking and riding parties are gaining
more popularity all the time, and to those
who contemplate joining one of these par
ties, either this year or another, some
hints may be acceptable as to the care Of
their feet, it being taken for granted that
the general health warrants the under
taking at the outset; for unless the feet
are In good condition it is self evident
that no walking, at any rate, can be done
that will amount to anything. A course
OF wholesome but plain food is desirable
before any such expedition sets out. so
that the digestive apparatus shall be in
perfect order to begin with; and the next
thlng requisite is to accustom the feet to
sensible shoes. that while not too heavy,
and while fitting snugly, are yet loose
enough TO give the toes perfect play, on
no account allowing the least pinch Of
tghtness or rub Of looseness, or any heel
but broad fat one,
A foot bath of water into which a couple
OF handfuls of common salt have been
thrown should be administered every
morning for some days before beginning
the walk, and during its continuance, and
after the feet are wiped from that they
should be rubbed in alcohol, which keeps
them in fine condition, and insures sue
cessful journey, other things being equal
For the rest, good sleep and enough OF it,
good food and not too much of it, are the
chief things to be secured, and one VIII

and tone sufficient TO meet great deal of

NEW YORK, Feb. 2l.-A complaint was
filed in the county clerk office today in a

Richards, H. c. Hadley and

as trustees The complaint sets
forth that there is litigation pending in
Kansas about a mortgage executed by the
Fort Scott road to the Union Trust COM
pany. The mortgage was foreclosed and
the sale advertised. A reorganization
agreement was then made Mr. Stanton
alleges that the agreement has not been
fulfilled and through fraud the Stockhold-
erS were induced to give up their stock to
the committee, who obtained it for the use
aud benefit of the Missouri Pacific. in
which they were stockholders This is
claimed to have damaged the plaintiff
He asks for an accounting of all the shares
of the Fort Scott company. He asks
that the stock of the new company he
limited to S6,6l4, SS5, that the court djudg-
ed that Gould and the other defendants
are not entitled to any of the stock of the
new company; that they be restrained from
acting as directors: that the second mort
gage executed in 1885 be declared void:
that the Missouri Pacific be compelled to
account for the earnings of the Fort Scott,
and that these be turned over to a receiver
to be appointed by the court.

ROSA SCHMIDT PARDONED.

AUSTIN, Tex, Feb. Ex-Governor Ross
today pardoned Rosa Schmidt, of San An
tonic, whose brutal treatment rs convict
was recently noticed She was yoked with
a negro boy and lot of convicts who were
being taken to the penitentiary. The gov
ernor had previously refused the pardon on
an ex parts statement under the impression
that there must have been sucn state of
moral turpitude as justified the conviction
of even German girl by jury
largely composed of Germans, but upon
a review of the facts as now pre-
sented and urged in the girls behalf he is
constrained to grant the pardon. The ap-
plication is urged by letters from promii-
nent citizens of San Antonio and by Dis
trict Attorney Paschall, Sheriff Lewis and
District Clerk Dashiell. The girl was CON
victed and sentenced for two years for for
gerry, but since her conviction the jury has
concluded that she was the dupe of ignor-
ance and not morally responsible Gov.
Ross says he will call the attention of the
contractor for conveying prisoners to the
penitent;ary to the conduct of his repre-
sentative, and insist upon his prompt re-
moyal

Fannie Bloomfield at Hershey'S Music hall
last night was one of the most ENJOYABLE
musical events of the concert season. She
is an artist of rare attainments. Although
but scarcely twenty years OF age she has
fairly rivaled in brilliancy of technique
and fidelity and force of expression the
achievements of those who have devoted
fully that period to acquire an equal
mastery of the instrument 1t would be

and Polonaise. \ more discerning tran
scription of the beauties of Chopin.s music
has rarely if ever been heard in this CITY
than was afforded in the performance of
the group of selections from his writings.
The large audience present testified the
very warmest admiration at the conclusion
of this series. which the fair Young artist
richly merited. The astonishing contin-
uity OF power she exhibits. her phenome-
nal mastery of the keyboard, her
splrituelle conception OF the works of the
most classical writers, and her extraordi-
nary memory evidently predestine Miss
