New York, Aug. 1s.-At the sixty fifth street
yard this afternoon switchmen and switch en-
gines under the personal supervision of superin-
tendent Tyfe were busy making up freight
trains which were taken out as soon as made.
The yards are as clear as on ordinary working
days. NO blockade exists any where in the net
work of track in the big yards, and cars now
standing proper side tracks ready to be
coupled up for outgoing trains, which are
handled by train dispatchers without any delay
and but very little inconvenience.
The rumor that the West Shore railroad is tied
up on account of engineers going out has been
found to be false. General Manager Toucey Of
the Central road was seen by reporter and said
he had just received a dispatch from General
Manager Lang of the West Shore saying that
everything was all right at the Grand Central
depot. All engineers are at work. No strike OF
engineers is liable TO happen on either road.
The strikers took heart To-day when they heard
of the strike on the Delaware and Hudson canal

NEW YORK, Aug. I3.-The change in senti-

that the market was going backward

signing checks to keep their margins good. Two
days ago the bulls were SO scarce as to be worth
almost a premium. To-day it was difficult to
find bear. Such as there were wished they
were not. Whether the market is now bent on
another upward turn or will fall back after this

The Record Lowered.



New York, Aug. l3.--The Teutonic came into
port this morning, and she did not only lower
the record OF the Paris, but also out-steamed the
sister ship of the latter. About three hours
later the City of New YORK steamed into harbor.
The Teutonic's time is FIVE days, nineteen hours
and five minutes, thirteen minutes better
time than the world record. The City of New
York left the harbor at Queenstown nearly an
hour ahead of the Teutonic and it was genuine
race between them the remainder of the voyage.
For several days during the trip the two vessels
remained in sight of each other. but on the first
day out from Cork harbor the Teutonic showed
the advantage of twin screws and assumed the
lead, never to relinquish it for the remainder of
the passage.

Quay's Resolution and DisGruntled jour
nalists.
Special to the Gazette.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 13.-Reference of the Quay
resolution introduced yesterday afternoon to
the senate committee rules to-day is regarded
here as almost equivalent TO an affirmative
vote on it, for the committee is composed of
men understood to be wholly favorable to it, and
there is believed to be enough disatfected senti-
meDt among the Republicans to unite with the
Democrats and put it through when reported
back.
The most unhappy lot of men at the capital
are Republican journalists who have been trying
to read Secretary Blaine out of the party because
party's tariff policy, and which now have
a new job on the hands in Quays
case. There is some talk of struggle after
the resolution has been reported to be precipi-
tated by Senator HOar and one or two other
rabid friends of the force bill, but the enemies
of the bill laugh at this idea and prophesy that
in the present tired-out condition of the senate
whatever resistance is made will be short lived.

About the Weather.

Most old proverbs concerning the
weather are founded upon logical
conclusions and scientific investiga-
ton. A very reliable sign of stormy
weather is when the sun rises clear
and shortly goes into cloud. This
indicates the presence OF rapidly con-
densing moisture in the atmosphere,
which is likely to soon fall as rain.
A lurid color of the sky at sunrise,
halos around the sun and moon, "a
rainbow in the morning." and the
"sun drawing water" are due to the
same cause, and are all omens of
stormy weather. Scattering men
say that if a storm clears with the
wind "backing round" to the north,
another storm will Immediately fol-
low. This can be probably ex-
planned by the fact that when, the
centre of a cyclone or rotary storm
passes over any point, there is a
temporary calm, after which the
wind commences to blow from the
opposite direction. On Candlemas
Day-February second-the wood.
chuck is said to come out of his hole
and look around to see if his body
casts a shadow. If it does he goes
back for longer sleep, but if the sky
is clouded he knows that winter is
over, and does not return to his
former quarters. We are afraid that
in New England the woodchuck
must very often consider himself the
victim of misplaced confidence, but
the belief may have arisen from GER
tain weather observations, showing
that clear and cold weather about
that date was likely to continue,
and that storm and rain indicated a
more or less breaking up of winter.

Timely Attractions Of Women.

The great art-nOt duty-which
women have to learn is, says living
writer, how to make the best use, in
its own time, of the various kinds Of
attraction, the various sorts of charm
practicable by them-each beautiful
in its way, but only perfect when in
harmony with age and condition.
For instance, the simplicity Of a
child is Stiffness in a full-grown girl ;
the unsuspecting frankness ola girl
is .lOse-lippedness and undignified
want of reticence in a woman; the
instructive coquetry and desire to eX-
cite admiration and love, in Il maid
en-, become folly and heartlessness
and fixed habit of Inconsistency, and
as time goes on, a ghoulish craving
in a matrOn; and so on through the
whole list.

Weak Women.

The more sensitive nature of the
female sex renders women much
more susceptible than men to those
numerous ills which spring from lack
of harmony in the system. The ner>
vous system gives way, sick headache
is frequent, the appetite is lost, and
other ailments peculiar to the sex
cause great suffering. Hoods Sar-
Saparilla is peculiarly adapted for
such cases, and has received the most
gratifying praise for the relief it has
afforded thousands of women whose
very existence before taking it was
only misery. 1t strengthens the
nerves, cures sick headache and indi,
gestion, purifieS and vitalizes the
blood, and gives regular and healthy
action To every organ in the body.

A Wife's Cooperation.

what spirit and perseverance does he

confidence will he resort either to his
merchandise or farm, fly over land,
sail upon the seas, meet difficulty and
encounter danger-if he knows he is
not spending his strength in vain,
but that his labor will be rewarded
by the sweets Of home! How de-
lightful it is to have friend to cheer
and a companion to soothe the soli-
tary hours of grief and pain 4!
