CLEWS ON THE MARKET.
The Speculative Spirit Held in Check by
Expectant Futures.

The Speculative Spirit Held in Check by
Expectant Futures.
New YORK, April 24.-Affairs in Wall
street begin to show more animation.
On the one hand the "bear" commit
ments have subjected that class of op-
orators to pressure from the "bulls"
which at times develops some lively
skirnishing; and, on the other, the
unsettiement of the anthracite inter-
ests through the recent Residing deal
causes frequent large transactions in
that class of securities, which imparts
q certain degree of speculative interest
to the general list. AT the moment
these are the principal causes tonduc-
ing to the growing interest in the mar
ket; but though restricted. these infiu-
enccs are attaching tue attention ot out
SHE operators and may possibly lay
the basis for still moro active move
ment later on. The predominant at
titude Of the speculative interest seems
to be that of expectancy. Although at
the moment there is some disposition TO
defer transactions Until the further
development of crop prospects, yet
the preponderant tenor ot lntiuene. )
pcdIlDS upOu tiN tOuisc VI
prlces is construed as favorable.
There are now before us four
clear months during which there
can be no doubt that money will rule
1T excessively low rates; and a like care
may be expected to prevail IN the
money markets of Europe. A great
hope begins to dawn upon monetary
affairs In the now assured prospect that
a worlds conference will soon assemble
for deliheratlng upon the silver ques-
ton, the invitations for such n con-
gress having been already issued by tue
state department and assurances re-
ceivcd tnat England, france, Ger
many, Italy and Austria-H II nugary will
accept. That prospect is the more as
suring because the promotion of the
conference has been cordially en-
couraged by Great BrItain-thc country
which hitherto has most persistentiy
opposed all international endeavors TO
restore tho status of silver as CO.
ordinate currency with gold. Eng
lands new attitude in this matter is the
more important. because it plainly inn
plies that recent experience Is viewed
as having demonstrated the malntcn-
ance of silver to be a commercial ana
financial necessity-an argument which
is tenfold more effective for action on
this question than any mere theoretic
reasoning,

Only Schools of Crime.
LONDON, April PA letter written
by Lester William TaIlacI of the
Howard association has been published
here aud has excited much interest
among those connected officially aud
unotficialiy with English prisons. Mr..
Tailack says that after q careful study
of prisons IN Italy and America where
a system has been adopted of giving
prisoners of = hardened type free inter-
course with the other prisoners aud pro-
viding them with comforts and
luxur.es, he has found that the results
are deplorable. The prisoners of
Massachusetts,. he declares, are schools
of crime and have terrible effects upon
tie community. Crime in England,
where the prisoners are separated, has.
according to Mr.. Tallack, greatly
decreased, while in America it is
rapidly increasing.

BIRDIE" EXPLAINS HERSELF.


She Tries 20 Show Her Budding Innocence
to Reporter.
Mrs. Birdie Tyson was interviewed at
at the Jail by a reporter for THE HER
AID. Sheriff Mcqueen placed her in q
room on the second flor apart from
the other female prisoners. She was
lying on q couch, her face buried in the
pillow. She raised herself on her ell
bow. With the other hand she brushed
her eyes. apparently trying to sweep
away something that might have been
there. She arose somewhat hastily,
just little frightened, and, staggering
slightly, grasped the back 0f chair
and sighed desSondently. Sheriff Nc
Queen informed her as to the reporters
mission, aud advised her not to say q
word if she didn't want to.
"And have the newspapers found it
out?' she said, scarcely above her
breath, assuming the air Of . crushed
comedian IN q burlesque performance.
She was told that all the facts were
known and that If sne wanted TO make
a statement sne could do so. "Must 1T
be printed Is there nothing can do?
Have you no pity" she gurgIed in
tragic tones. She was coldly informed
that the facts must be- made public.
