 NEW YORK May ?.
 Railroad bonds were more active the sales reaching 32,950,0O0 with Texas Pacific sec onds the Atchison issues, the Atlantic and Pacific issues the Wabash seconds and the Oregon Trans- continental 6s as the active features. There was only strong point in the market, however, which was the Kansas and Texas Certificates The general tone of the market was strong as usual in the forenoon but weakened late in the day. and the final changes are in a few cases for mora than fractional amounts. East Tennessee arsts and Cedar Falls firsts were especially weak but many of inactive issues traded in scored material gains over their last sales
 The stock market still maintains it's moderate activity although the business doing at present is far in of that for the past two years Teday the market was somewhat more feverish than usual of late and the efforts to bring about re- action met with some little success in the general list, although most all the important changes Tor the day are advances.
 The fluctuations in most of the list were not specially important and were made within narrow limits in comparison with the amount of business done. but at all concessions there was geod buy ing demand met which prevented wide fluctuations or material declines. Among the specially strong features of the day were Chicago gas in the fore noon, although it lost the greater portion of the improvement later in the day. Oregon Trans- continental later became the leader of the advance and on very large business rose about per cent. Manhattan, Wheeling and Lake Erie and the San Francisco .stocks also made sharp upward turns though the San Francisco common lost all of its gain aud something in addition, and is ono of the stocks showing material loss at the close Of the day. The market closed active and rather heavy and generally at slight concessions from opening figures, but the undertone of the market continued frnl and while some sold out bulls looking for reaction, there is indication of one outside of the Granger stocks.

To Prevent Mistake on Identity. TFrom the Fortniehtly Reyiew,1

Mistaken identity has much to answer for. When we consider the waste of treasure and passion, public and private, of e few years back, the aftermath of blasted regulations, the bitterness and public distrust, the dan ger from insidiously spread ideas of corrup- tion and perverted justice, and then reflect that all this could have been avoided had a certain officer of her majesty's Sixth Ora goon Guards been properly measured some forty years since, that simple anthropometry could have rendered the historic claimant an impossibility, the importance of the ques- tion Is suggested to us. Army and navy should find in 1t a solution of long standing difficulties. In warlike ranks identity is 8 subject of the utmost importance. It may bs said to be both a live and 8 dead ques- tion. Under present arrangements deser- tions and fraudulent re enlistments flourish almost unchecked, while ascertained and re- jected worthlessness, not even "food for powder" is enabled to slip in as another door of the service to cause more expense and annoyance. Again, in cases of death in action, there is nothing the warrior so dreads as the nameless burial of the battlefield, where room for doubt is left about his per- sonal share in the strife.
 With anthropometric methods even Wa terloo need have no nameleas corpse. Doubts could be solved years after death It is wrong to suppose the Tichborne case was at all unprecedented. Paris and New York had each experienced long before just such public puzzle pictures in mistaken identity. The Paris case of three centuries since, rela. ting to successful Claimant" (though ul- timately executed for the imposture), was quoted during the Tichborne litigation by Sir John Duke Coleridge, the attorney gene- ral, (now lord chief justice.) The New York case of hundred years ago showed justice herself as claimant for the person of . man charged with deserting his estate and com- hitting felony in mysterious manner, a mystery never since solved. All such cases would never worry the legal machinery un- der the rule of anthropometry. Not only national, but international broils have been
 bred by mistaken identity. The bitter war
 between the United States and Great Brit ain, war fruitful of new snarls even yet,
 would have never occurred if anthropometry had been in vogue. The British captains who claimed their deserters, the American captains who disputed the identification, were undoubtedly honest, but could have had no honest quarrel if anthropometry had been the means of settling differences. Many another dispute between nations, aa between individuals, would be avoided if mistakes of identity are avoided.

North Bridgeport people heard terrible screams coming from the house of Carl sie- fert, and it was thought he and his wife were whipping their thirteen.year-old daugh- ter. This morning some of the neighbors made complaint to Major Middlebroek, local that for long time past Siefert had had the reputation of whipping his daughter Emma in a brutal manner. To-day the agent snd some local officers visited North Bridgeport and collected much evidence to show that Siefert and his wife, the girls step-mother, had abused her. The house was searched and @ cat o'nine tails was found. Siefert was arrested late this afternoon and his wife will probsbly be arrested later.

A NEW INTERNAL REVENUE LAW. All special Taxes Must Now be Paid
 bY May E..

by May 5.
 Deputy Collectors Pickett and Gaffsy have received notification from tho internal reve- nue department at Washington that all spe- cial taxes must be paid before May 5. The collectors are instructed to levy special tax of 50 per cent in delinquent cases. This order has only recently been inaugurated, as in previous years special taxes could be paid any time during the month of May. The government has found that in many instan- ces the privilege has been shamefully abused and this new measure is. intended to put 8 stop to 1t.
 Numerous dealers have been found to have sold with one license during the month of May, and at it's close gone out of the busi- ness. This left the revenue office out to the extent of one months taxes. Under the new law this sort of thing cannot be done legally, and when violators of the law are found they will be puniahed severely.

LET'S THINK ABOUT IT.

1t is only question of time, and not
long, either, before the United States will
have to extend it's territory, and if it is
possible to now acquire the island Of
Cuba, as the Spanish government has
limited it is possible to do by the pay
ment of, say, $l00,0O0,0O0, it would ap-
pear good policy to do it. At the present
rate of growth the. population of the
United States will verge close to 100, 000,-
900 during the next twenty years. In
fifty years from now these figures will
double. What's going to become Of the
people? When Gen. Sickles was min
lister to Spain he had almost closed nego-
tiations for the purchase of Cuba by this
government when the sudden death Of
Gen. Prim by assassination put stop to
it. Within few days two repre-
sentatiyes Of the Spanish govern
ment have arrived in Washington
to confer with the authorities on this sub
ject, and their coming has aroused fresh
interest in it. Outside OF it's rich soil pro-
auctions upon which we now pay duty,
the island has twelve harbors, all of them
superior to New York harbor. The navies
of all the world could be hidden away so
that it would require search to find
them around the Cuban shores. Cuba is
almost as large as the state Of New York
and ten times more fertile. She can sup
port and feed within her own borders
100000 people. Her sugar crop within
three years would repay us in duties,
should we continue to collect them, the
price OF payment, assuming that payment
to be $l00,00O,0O0. More than all this,
the road, and the broad and open road to
South America, would be opened at once
to us. Our exports to the southern coun-
tries would have to travel less than one
half the distance now covered. This in
itself is worthy of consideration in these
trying times OF over production here.

GIVE THE NEWSPAPERS DUE RECoGNI

At the coming session of the legislature
some very necessary legislation, changing
the methods and the law in the matter OF
advertising legal notices of all kinds, must
be had. The law as it stands now, favors
the money lender entirely too much. All
legal notices and all advertisements Of
sales under mortgages, orders OF court,
etc, should be advertised for at least four
weeks in newspapers and the fullest pub
licity should be given to such things, both
in order to keep all persons interested fully
informed of what is going on, and because
public policy would be subserved thereby
The newspapers of this territory can have
the existing laws changed in the proper
direction, if they take hold OF the matter
as they should. 1t is about time that it
were acknowledged by the people of New
Mexico that the newspapers of this terri
tory, as a rule and with the exception Of
q few sheets not worthy the name of
newspapers, are very potent factor in
the building I'D and advancement of this
territory The people as whole, the
business men, the lawyers, the miners,
stock raisers, the farmers and the politi-
clans, last but not least by great deal,
must be brought to realize this fact, and if
the respectable papers of New Mexico get
together and stand together, some greatly
needed and good legislation in their be-
half can be and will be secured at the
coming session of the legislative assem-
