EXCHANGE REVIEW.


NEW YORK, April 9.-There was more busi-
ness in stocks today, but the increased trading
was entirely on account of board-room traders.
The Union Pacific received most attention, and
it was quite active at advancing prices, the i'm
provement being accompanied by vague rumors
of something of favorable nature to come out
in the next few days. Trading in the stock ran
up to $4,000 shares, and shows x at close.
The market rallied slightly toward the close,
which was dull and steady, at small fractions
under last nights figures.

TRAGIC SUICIDE.
Young Mrs. Mcdowell Couldn't
Live HaDpily.

BELFAST, Dec. 29.-What is sup
posed to be mysterious and tragic sui
eide is at present the sensation of the
day in this neighborhood. A man
named Mcdowell, who, it is supposed,
was born in this city, went to South
Africa some years ago, finally settled
down in the diamond mine region. and
managed to accumulate fortune there.
About seven weeks Mcdowell real
lied upon his belongings in South At
RIGA and prepared TO return to Ireland.
Previous to so doing. however, he
married beautiful girl belong
ing to Kimberly, the celebrated
diamond mining town. After his mar
riage Mcdowell sailed with his bride to
this country. After their arrival here
Mr.. and Mrs. Mcdowell passed some
time in this city, and then seemed to
have settled down at Bangor, OH Belfast
Tough, with the intention of passing
their honeymoon in that place. Last
night the Inhabitants of Bangor were
thrown into state Of great excite
ment when it became known that
the body of Mrs. Mcdowell had been
found by the roadside just outside the
town, with an empty bottle, supposed
TO have contained poison, lying beside
lcI' AZ tIe iilQuSSt lHIU tuO uCdIil VI
Mrs. Mcdowell to-day the husband of
the dead woman was called upon to
testify. In the course of his evi-
dence he admitted that his wife
had complained of his frequent absence
at night and that he returned to his
hotel Saturday night under the in
fluence of liquor. On reaching their
rooms he discovered that Mrs. Nc
Dowell had gone out, but thinking that
she would soon return. he did not insti-
tute search fer her. In the morn
ing, however. finding that she was
still missing, he began an investigation.
which led to the discovery that prior to
her leaving the hotel she had destroyed
scrip to the value of $4,000. After a
short deliberatiOn the jury returned a
verdict that Mrs. Mcdowell committed
suicide during fit of temporary insan-
ity, brought on by her husbands neg
lect and drinking habits.
