Jacob Siobodskay yesterday fled petit

his name to Jacob Sloan. He states that he
was born in Russ in 1860. He asks forthe
change of name because "his present name,
Jacob Slobodskay, is of such difficult or

Principal Event-So Spt cial Influences

Good Proportions-Sales and Quotations.
The event of the week in local stock cir
cles was the consummation of the agree
ment between the Pittsburg and Duquesne
Traction Companies, by which they will
hereafter be operated by one management.
While this result, which had been fore
shadowed for some time, is undoubtedly
beneficial to both roads, and presumably to
the public, it had little effect upon their Sc
curitics, the weakness of Duquesne stock
being traceable to other causes, for the rea
son, perhaps, that investors had not fully
digested the significance of the movement.
The burden of opinion seems to be that the
removal of all cause for friction between
the late rivals will increase their earning
capacity, strengthen public confidence and
bring their bonds and stocks into more act
i've request.
The market pursued a comparatively even
course during the week, there being no radi-
cal price changes and no special influences
to turn the scale one way or another. Clos
ing figures, as compared with those OF the
previous Saturday, show these results: Cen

MONEY FOR THE MILLION.
Pittsburg and New York Produce Very,
Strong Bank Statements.

Increase of funds at nearly all the finan-
cial centers was the feature of the week in
banking circles. Business, however, was
satisfactory, bank clearings having been
nearly 81, 900 0C0 in excess of those of the pre-
vious week and upward of s., ,5OO,C COO greater
than for the corresponding time last year.
Trade was long time catching up with the
rapid gait of 1890, but it has finally forged
ahead. Business is not only better than it
was in the closing weeks of last year, but
conditions and influences are infinitely
more favorable. There is nothing in sight
to prevent n continuance of the forward inn
pulse which has set in. Read either directly

The Servant Question.

It is a curious fact that there is moth
ing which is SO wholly unanimous as the
desire that other peoples daughters
should be cooks and chamber maids.
We never think of it as thing desira-
BILE, or perhaps supEosable, for our own;
and this fact seems to damage most of
our arguments for others. Artemus
Ward was willing to send his wifes re-
lations to the war, but we are not in
clined to contribute even these to the
kitchen, for we should hold, rightfully,
that it was ''menial service" Now if
we draw the line at mental service for
ourselves and our relatives, why
should We speak severely of those
who draw the line at just that point for
themselves and their own relatives?
The whole difficulty of this much-vexed
question seems to lie precisely there

At small and unique company given

customary serving of ices in glasses
and had them in real Gala lilies The
large stamen was removed and the
flower contained quite as much ice as
the ordinary receptacle. When the cup
so filled was laid on an exquisite plate
the effect was very attractive. Calais
filed with punches of sweet English
violets make a beautiful decoration,
when piled in pyramid form on the CEN

equally pretty placed at each plate.
Callas by themselves are cold, formal
stiff flowers, except when grouped with
growing plants, but filled with small
blossoms like violets, forget-me-nots,
tiny rosebuds, or even a larger flower,
softened with bit of maiden hair fern
or asparagus, they become things of
beauty. If lily of this kind be filed

"A new scheme is being developed
in London. 1t is a servants dress
making company, designed to keep
thrifty servants well dressed by an easy
method-the weekly installment plan.
Its promoters are not philanthropists,
but business persons, who see, or think
they see, profit in the system. 1t has
long been the comment of English wom-
en- visiting America-the smartness of
the servants toilets and their similari-
ty to the fashions and patterns of their
mistresses. Now, however, the oppor-
tunity is to be given to the English
Jane and Susan to do the same thing.
The new company states that expert
and fashionable dressmakers are in it's
employ, enabling it to furnish most &C
ceptabl costumes, and costumes, it
adds, that have hitherto been unat-
tainable by the class it now seeks to
supply.
