THE LOWEST YET.

Philadelphia Gas and Electric Break All
Former RecOrds-Other Features.
With three or four exceptions, local stocks
held their own yesterday, holders refusing to
make concessions. Several ugly rumors. for
which there was probably little or no founda-
ton, aided by the miserable weather. conspired
to still further weaken confidence in two of the
specialties and make the lowest prices ever
known for them. These were PHILADELPHIA
Gas and Electric. The former sold down to
l552, and closed at l3 bid. Electric sola at 49,
ana closed at l3is
Sales at these figures were no doubt comDul-
sory. and by no means reflect the intrinsic
value of the stocks. Luster was fractionally
weaker while New York and Cleveland Gas
Coal returned 10 its former position at S. Few
figures we're made. and there was no particular
pressure to either buy or sell. There was moth
ing like scare, and no symptoms of general
decentralization.

THE BODY IDENTIFIED.
A Young Swede Who, firing of Life in the
New World, Kills Himself

A Young Swede Who, Tiring of Life in the
New World, Kills Himself.
CHICAGO, Dec. S.-The body OF the young
man who committed suicide one week ago
yesterday, at the cable station, Fifty-third
and State streets, has been identified as that
of Fritz Bernhard Henreks. The body has
been at the HYDE Park morgue siace the in
quest, and it was not until H. p. Anderson
and A. w. Paulsen, uncle and cousin of the
dead man, called yesterday that anything
was known of the suicides identity. Hem
reks was born in Sweden. In 1884 he was
sent to America. He came to Chicago and
became member of his uncle's family.
His mother lett him legacy OF about 81, 800,
and upon attaining his majority he re-
quested his father to transfer the principal
and accrued interest to his own name.
The father, although wealthy, refused to
send the boy his money. Henreks tried to
collect the money through an American
bank, but his scheme tailed. To make
things worse he fell in love and became en-
gagged. His sweetheart Tilted him when she
saw that there was no hope for him to Sc
cure his legacy. He became melancholy
and finally determined on suicide. A week
ago he drew his pay. $40, and disappeared.
When found dead he was without money.
Only arevoIver, some cartridges and q bunch
of keys were upon his person. The body
was claimed and will be given decent
burial.

QUITE COMFORTABLE.

Local Banks Strong Enough to Give Business
Necessary support.
The local banks were in a comfortable con-
dition yesterday SO far as resources were con-
cerned. and they had about as much business as
they cared to handle under existing circum-
stances. Their policy is to circumscribe rather
than expand their operations until after the
new year.
By pursuing this course they expect to be
able to furnish all the accommodations re-
quired by legitimate business. Rates were
steady on the basis of 6Gl7 per cent, according
TO time. Exchanges were 81. 7T5,090 81, and bal

DryCOOds,

New YORK, Dec. S.-The drygoods market
presented no new feature. There was good
volume of mail orders, but selections were
light. The situation is steady one. while
awaiting more settled state of the financial
market. Some staples are accumulating under
the circumstances. but not out of proportion to
conservative wants of trade More activity is
likely to be reached before the end of the
month, but neither buyers nor sellers are anx-
ious at present. The market is in good shape
and the trade is being we'll supplied with goods
from the active business of November.

The oil market opened at 63 yesterday. This

trolling the manufacture of petroleum it is
practically the only customer for crude. and
hence is in position to dictate prices. Thus
