STOCK EXCHANGE REVIEW.


NEW YORK, March 26.-The stock market
to-day was moderately active. and especially
so during the morning hour, and while there
was very little feature of Importance to the
trading the market was weak and declining
during most of the day. The feeling on Mis-
souri, Pacific seemed to have undergone
= change for the better, and though the declar-
alton of IL per cent. dividend was not made
till toO late to have immediate effect on
course Of stock, 1t was firm to strong almost
throughout the day and rose to point ~ per
cent. above Saturdays closing figure, most
of which was retailed at the close. The
bears again turned their attention to Read
ing, pressure was sew. re in the morning and
u prices were forced down from 5956 to 57l4,
transactions being heavier than has been
seen in some months. Other stocks which
received special notice from the bears were
Canada Southern, Union Pacific and St.
Paul, which gave weakness to the general
list. The rest OF the list was comparatively
quiet.
Government bonds were dull and steady.
Petroleum opened s.eady at 91Ic., but
after first sales became weak under heavy
selling for Western operators and declined

Exploding a Crocodile.

Yes" said Uncle Cap, II have not
only seen hundreds of alligators and
crocodiles in the course of my wander
ings, but l once had the pleasure of
destroying in novel and most efectual
manner great man-eating cayman, as
the crocodile is called in South Amer
ica."
"Was he like my alligator" asked
Bryce.
Every like him, the only difference
being that while your alligator is about
sixteen inches long, my cayman was
little over sixteen feet, and as ugly a
looking monster as ever swan. j had
been detached from the Porpoise, and
ordered to explore a portion of Vene-
zuela, in company with party of Amer
lean engineers, who were constructing
a telegraph line for the government of
that country. We were following down
tributary of the great river Orinoco,
and rested one Sunday at little village
on the bank of the stream. During the
afternoon, as we were all lying asleep
In our hammocks, there came a terrible
screaming and crying from the village,
and we ran TO see what was up.
ut seemed that several boys had
been bathing III the river just below
the village, when all at once, without
the slightest warning, one of them had
been seized and drawn under the turbid
waters by the great devil cayman,' as
the Indians called one of these crea-
lures which had long been terror to
the community.
Il suggested to the chief of the engi-
neers, fine young fellow named Rob-
erts, that we set a trap for the man
eater, and after explaining my idea, got
him to agree to it. As we were to be
in that vicinity for several days, we
waited until we thought it was about
time for the cayman to be hungry again.
Then we shot fat monkey, sewed in
side of him stone bottle containing
five pounds of powder, inserted In it
the ends of two coils of fine wire, bound
these 10 strong ropes of equal length,
and connected the other ends with the
little test battery that we carried.
when all was ready we foated our
bait, upheld by two inflated bladders,
near where the poor boy was seized,
and crouched in the bushes to await
developments. We had waited in per-
feet silence for more than an hour, and
we were about ready to give it up, when
there came a ripple in the water, and
the huge head, with horrid open jaws,
was cautiously lifted. Then the jaws
closed with a snap upon our bait, the
head instantly disappeared, and the
ropes began to run swiftly out, showing
that the monster was making for deep
water. / had charge of the battery, and
quickly connected the wires. Like a
fash there came deep muffied explo-
sion, torrent of blood-stained water
was thrown high in the air, and mingled
with it we're fragments of the scaly hide
of the monster, in whose side hole
two feet square had been blown.
"The poor natives were at first terri
fed, then mystified, and finally over
joyed at the success of our experiment,
and ever afterward they treated us like
beings possessed of supernatural pow
ers. Notwithstanding this, we noticed
that the boys did not seem to care for
bathing for some time afterward."

Highly Favorable Crop Reports.
r. G. Dun d Co.'s weekly review of trade
reports better feeling in every direction.
II says:
Crop prospects improve, manufacturers are
gaining confidence and dealers, no longer oper-
ating on n falling market, keenlv appreciate the
difference. The present state of business is
clearly encouraging, larger in volume than a
year ago, and growing more confident in tone.
Extensive reports within the last week
strengthen belief that the corn crop will be
large, the oat crop large the yield OF wheat
not below recent estimates. and the yield OF
cotton better than the trade has expected The
iron trade does not brighten as was expected,
though prices are little stronger in Pittsburg
The coal trade is phenomenally active, and
advance in price has been agreed upon. For the
first time in eight years leather dealers are no
longer selling on declining market. In the
wool trade better feeling is seen, and in
some grades better prices. Money
is frmer at many points, with
increasing demand, but scarcely anywhere is
there complaint of closeness and collections
do not seem TO be more backward than is usual

The Weather Favorable to Harvesting,
and Crops but Slightly Damaged.
The Signal-Service weather-crop bulletin,
issued the 9th. says
1.-The weather for the last week has been es-
pecially favorable for harvesting and farm work
IN the Northwest. The wheat harvest progress
ed rapidly in the central and northern portions
of Dakota and Minnesota, from which region the
reports indicate that the damage TO the
wheat crop from the frosts of last week
was largely overestimated. In the north
ern pt rtions of the corn belt the weather was
favorable but the growth Of the plant was
tarded by the low temperature. Very light
frosts occurred in Michigan and Northern nl-
nois on the 3D. probab causing no injury to
the crops. High winds damaged corn in Tennes-
see, kentucky, Indiana, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
and New Jersey, but the attending rains will
doubtless improve the crop"
