In EKEoR, YET RTGHr-We stand cor
rected hv the Eram,ner in the matter of the
law governing the choice of U S. Senators
in tins State. The law may be found in the
Code ot Public General Laws, Article 30.
Section "a, title United States Senator's
wherein VT hayc the following: "Onc OF the
Senators shall be always m inhabilant Ut The
Eastern, and the other Of the Western
Shore
Let the law I've repealed: it is unjust SUI
prcmcly so and worse it is absurd. While
the constitution of the United States provides
for two Senators from cacli State, the same
constitution permits each State to regulate
its own internal affairs and IN 50 far the Es
aminers criticism falls to the ground, yet it
is none the less bad law and one that
should be stricken from the statute books.
1t does not permit of fair and equal repre-
scnta,ion of the States interests and that is
the sole ground Of objection to the law.
The incoming Legislature can repeal III;
let it do so.

NEW YORK Aug. S.-The stock market
to-day was again quite dull and displayed no
decided temper, though the general tendency
was upward and prices this evening are gen.
orally fractionally higher than last night
The trading as rule was devoid of feature
of interest. but the attention of the bears was
turned upon Richmond d West Point again
and that Stock was made comparatively
active and weak. though its decline was
measured by small fraction. The leading ac-
tive stocks were st. Paul, Union Pacific. North
ern Pacific preferred. Atchison, Burlington,
Richmond & West Point and Chicago Gas,
ana only in the last named was the extreme
fluctuations for the day as much as ] per
cent London was again buyex and the
local bear element was rather inactive, eX-
cept in the stock above mentioned.
The opening was firm under tine influence
of the foreign buying, but the pressure upon
Union Pacific and Richmond q West Point
from local operators caused a slight deDres-
sion in those shares. and checked the upward
tendency in the general list after Atchlson
had risen IS. and others smaller fractions.
The industrials were specially strong how
ever, and Sugar rose ia per cent TO 79l2c.
The bank statement showed loss in the re-
serves of over S. 000, 900, but had no appreci
able influence on the speculation, beln g
about what was expected. and the late trad
ing was utterly featureless. The market
finally closed dull but firm. at small frac-
tional gains for the day, no material change
taking place in quotations among the leading
shares.
Railroad bonds were fairly active, and the
dealings in all issues reached S349000 but
there was no decided tendency of prices, and
the final changes are irregular but for small
amounts. Government bonds have been dull
and heavy. State bonds have been neglected.
The Post says: The temper OF the financial
community is extremely bullish, as was
plainly enough shown by their heavy orders
of the past week in Boston's Specialties, not
ably New England and Burlington & Quincy.
In the same connection, the movement of
the Boston money market is interesting. call
loans being quoted there yesterday at per
cent. and so scarce as to occasion virtual
money pinch. This has bearing of some
importance on our own local prospects, and
suggests that the call money market, as well
as that for time loans, may have a consider
able part 10 play in delaying an organized
movement for higher prices.

NEW YORK HONESTY.
1t Refused to Touch Watch
Hung Up in the Street.

A curious scene was witnessed on Sat
urday afternoon at the corner of Eighth
avenue aud Twenty-seveuth street, says
the New York Evening Post. 1t was at
that hour when hundreds pass within
the space of quarter of all houl-1
o'clock. Two fiashily dressed men had
a few minutes before been engaged
II earnest conversation on the subject
of honesty and dishonesty among the
people of the city, one contending that
a vast majority were worthy of trust,
while the other maintained that the re-
verse was nearer the truth. Finally,
the one with the high estimate of his
fellow citizens offered to hang
his watch, valuable gold one,
on the crOSS-bar of sign
post close by, and to wager a supper at
DelmOnicO'S that if he and his friends
left it there and went away for all hour
or so they would find it hanging there
unmolested on their return. The bet
was promptly accepted, the watch and
chain were tied to the cross-bar in such
a way that they would not fall of their
own weight, and the two men went
away.
A crowd had gathered and stared Eat
this strange proceeding. Some thought
it was an advertising trick, and that the
owner of the watch would return in a
moment and exhibit some wares to the
spectators. But the latter waited
much longer than they expected
those who did wait, and they
were many-befGre the owner came
back. People gazed at the watch,
examined it without touching it, then
looked at each other and wondered.
The crowd soon increased to hundreds,
and finally policeman worked his way
through the throng until he reached the
objective point. He demanded to know
whose watch it was, and was about to
take it down. when some one suggested
that he had no right to touch it,
any more than any one in the crowd.
He thought so himself after a moments
reflection, and conSoled himself by dis
persing the gathering as well as he
could; but it would have taken many
more policemen to keep the curious
people moving. Meanwhile the watch
continued to hang feet s inches from
the ground, in full view and reach of
every one in the neighborhoOd.
AT exactly $50 o'clock the owner of
the watch and his friend returned, and
the former took it down and placed it
in his pocket. When an onlOOker eX-
claimed: "Why didn't some of US do
that long ago?" the owner replied. with
a broad smile: Because the people Of
New York are honest"
1t was suggested by the more I'M
charitable spectators. however, that
there was safety in numbers, and that
the watch would not have hung undis-
turbed very long if so many persons
had not been looking at it and each
other.
