ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE D1sPArcH.i
NEW YORK, Dec. 6.-Further liquida-
tion in Sugar Refining was the principal in
fuence in speculation on the Stock Ex-
change to-day. On transactions exceeding
100000 shares that stock closed ~ per cent
lower than Yesterday and within 4 per cent
of the lowest price recorded for
it. The most plausible theory for
the heavy selling is that insiders have sold
the stock because they knew that the quar-
terIy dividend declared late this afternoon
would be 2J5 per cent instead of 81 per
cent, as the public had been led to believe.
Other coniectures are that the management
of the company anticipates action by Con-
rress on the sugar tariff unfavorable 10 the
company.
The dealings in Distilling and Cattle
Feeding were on a scale that made that
stock second in Importance. The news re-
garding this enterprise was favorable, con-
sisting Of an advance of five cents gallon
in the price of its product, and adyices
from the West that the outside distilleries
recently acquired in the name of party
identified with the concern have really been
for account ofthe company.
Other noteworthy dealings were in Read
ing, the price of which was fairly well sus-
tanned on account OF definite news that the
suit of Arnot. a Lehigh Valley stockholder,
TO prevent the lease of the company's prop
srty to the Reading Company, had been de-
cided AGAINST him. Chicago Gas was
moderately active at net de-
cline OF per cent, and Atchi-
son on comparatively light trans
actions suffered similar loss The deal
ings in Illinois Central were only a third as
large as Yesterday, but the stock closed 2s
per cent lower. Missouri Pacific and Man.
haitian we're neglected and suffered Material
declines. The only stock of any importance
that proved superior to the almost general
tendency were New England and Northern
Pacific preferred.
The important news OF the day was the
Presidents message, which was regarded
by the street as negative in character; the
withdra wal of the ROthschild proposition
from the Monetary Conference; the railroad
earnings, and the increase in exports of
merchandise for the week. This last, in
connection with the falling off in imports,
which is now noticeable, indicates that the
current of foreign commerce is gradually
turning in favor of this country. a
The closing was in the main heavy.

history of worcestershire sauce.

Many years ago Mrs. Grey, author of
''The Gamblers Wife, and other novels
well known in their day, was on a visit
at Ombersley Court, when Lady Sands
CHANGED to remark that she wished she
could get some very good curry powder
which elected from Mrs. Grey that she
had in her desk an excellent recipe which
her uncle, Sir Charles, chief justice of
India, had brought thence and given her.
Lady Sands said that there were some
clever chemists in Worcester who, per-
haps, might be able to make up the pow
der; at all events, when they drove in
after luncheon they would see. One
firm looked at the recipe, doubted if they
could, procure all the ingredients, but
said they would do their best, and in due
time forwarded packet of the powder.
Subsequently the happy thought
struck some one in the business that the
powder might, in solution, make a good
sauce. The experiment was made, and
by degrees the thing took amazingly.
ALI the world to its remotest ends now
knows of Worcestershire sauce as an
article of commerce, and, notwithstand-
ing that, in common with most good
things, it is terribly pirated, an enor-
nous trade Is done in it The profits
amount to thousands of pounds year.

A Phase of city Life.

Croesus in a luxurious chair gazed
languidly through a plate glass window
upon snow whitened thoroughfare,
filed with urban humanity hurrying to
the thousand avenues through which
the feeting hours escape. The pano-
rama rolled noiselessly and monotonous-
ly by, until there was projected upon
the Indifferent gaze of the watcher
bent and decrepit form, which shuffled
over the hagstones in strange. contrast
with the brisk and certain step of the
strolling class that frequented that ave-
nue.. The figure was that of woman
clad in rags and tatters, and when her
haltng steps reached the lamppost in
front of the rich mans palace, she hest
tated, looked feebly about, and finally
seated herself upon the edge of the flag
stone sidewalk. The tattered figure
made grotesque outline against the
SNOW incrusted street, and the watcher
m his crimson chair looked upon it with
languid interest.
From mass of rags she produced a
fral and soiled camp stool, and after
setting this upon the pavement undid q
red handkerchief and from its folds took
two sticks of candy and ball of pop
corn. The tawdry and slender stock
was tenderly placed upon the stool and
the patient wait for customers began.
They did not come. Instead there ap-
peayed a hveried servant from the big
house who ordered the woman to move
on, but tempered the roughness of the
command with the gift of piece of sill
yer from his own. pocket. The sight
had grated upon the nerves of the mas
ter of the house, reminding him that
poverty was not yet so old and obsolete
as to have lost its sting.-New York

that that line is deseryedly accredited as being
the finest piece OF railroad ia the country. that
ATS coaches are the most magnificent, aud that

In the world. To those, however, who have
never used the Royal Blue Line, the following
