said he would like 20 have an OppOrtu-

Fresh evidence of the change in the speculative

unfortunately improbable that even cohsi"ei,
able norton of these purchases will be sent abroad
because they were made to protect foreign short
Interest in this market The commercial and
financial relations of the two continents will not
be affected by the buying, for the short interest
was here. and it makes no difference whether the
sufferers lived in London or New-Yprk, in Boston
or Paris. The buying was sufficiently large If 1t
had been for investment, to have had an instant
and important influence on the foreign exchanges
Its significance, therefore, lay in the fact that 1t
indicated an altered sentiment In Europe In re-
gard to American railway securities. The pro-
lection of short contracts may be followed by
more effective buying, and reformed bears always
become ardent bulls. The activity in the market
is welcomed by everybody i'll Wall street, ana ii
commission houses are not doing their full pro-
norton of the business they have reason to ex-
pect that their turn will soon come. The trans
actions to-day were larger than before this year.,
and while the movement Of prices was somewhat

were less prominent The comparative
weakness of the Northern Pacific shares, which is
admitted to be due to pressure of long stock has
been explained in variety of ways, none of which
is accepted with entire satisfaction. II Is by no
means impossible that the decline has been brought
about with the purpose of acquiring, as cheapy as
possible the preferred stock that must be retired
by the friends that the company has gained by
the recent decision in it's favor in the land grant

The slight reaction in the afternoon was caused
bv the abrupt fall in Chicago Gas on the announce

The Greatest steam Hammer.

The greatest steam hammer in the
world, constructed at the Bethlehem
Iron Company's Works for the manu-.
facture of iron plate, is now completed,
and in only few days more the history
Of its first terrific blow will be chron.
icled. The giant was designed after
the hammer of Schneider & Co., of
LIE Crusot' France. which, after this
one. is the second largest in the world.
1t has stroke of l25 tons, while the
Schneider hammer is only capable of
striking l00-ton blow. The hammer
will be used for forging ingots into
armor plates. These ingots will be
cast of metal weighing from 100 to $50
tons, and by this stupendous piece OF
mechanism will be forged into the de-
sired sizes by l25-ton blows. The ham.
mer is said to be n continuance uprar.

ACoal miners Good Fortune.

Michael Ball, an industrious coal
miner of West Overton, near here, has
bid adieu to the coke works forever, his
wife having fallen heir to $4,000 in
cold cash. Mrs. Balls mother was a
Mrs. Smith, residing on farm few
miles from Dunbar, Fayette county.
She died dqring March, 1890, at the ad-
vanced agepf 90. and left her estate OF
of 700 acres to her SIX children. The
immense farm was sold to an advantage
recently, and Mrs. Ball gets ST. 900 as
her legal share. Mr.. Ball and his wife
left for Dunbar to secure their division
of the money. He was one of the
familiar figures in the recent strike and
was compelled to set his household fur
nlture out on the road at West Overton
to avoid eviction and being sold out by
the Notwithstanding Independent.
