BLIND POOL ENDED.
St. Paul Chicago Agreement Dis
solved.

solved.
CHICAGO, June 2.-The Northwestern
blind passenger pool was formally dis
solved today. A meeting of the inter
ested lines was held to consider the
situation as affected by the Rock
Islands withdrawal from the pool, and
the whole question was discussed at
length. The Rock Island was willing
to reconsider its withdrawal Oh condI-
ton that it be guaranteed certain per-
centage of the competitive business, but
the other roads would not agree to this.
The Wisconsin Central and the Bur-
HngtOn were also dissatisfied with the
share of business allotted to them, and
thought it would be to their interest to
yacate the agreement. The upshot of
the discussion was that the Chicago-St.
Paul passenger pool, which has been in
existence since Nov. l, 1890, was de-
clared dissolved, and the advisory board
was discharged.

NEW ORLEANS, La, June 2.-George
Sebastian, So years of age, committed
suicide here yesterday. He came here
eighteen years ago and accumulated a

New York.

NEW YORK. June 2.-The stock market
today was more barren OF feature than fo-
many weeks past the apathy seemingly hav-
ing extended to the bear side of the market
as well as to the bulls though the early ar
rival of the hot term may have induced many
members of the board to stay away, and thus
reduce the volume of business and the width
of the fluctuations. No one at present seems
able to see where the narrOwness and profes-
sional character of the market will end, and
general opinion is that only when the char
acter Of the growing crops is assured will
operators be DISPOSED to take hold again.
Just at present the coal stocks interested
in the combine and the grangers attract most
speculative attention, principally because
both groups are supposed by the bears to
offer the most vulnerable front from spe-
culative view. The pressure. upon these
stocks today, however, was not of sufficient
force to make any material fluctuation.
Reading. st Paul and Burlington still were
leaders in point of activity, but the oper-
atoms on the short side were seriously cur
tailed. and the animation seen was Of the
hand-to- mouth order entirely, while the
usual result of the absence of bear pressure
was seen in dullneEs. and a gen.
eral advancing tendency, which was no
more than held in check by the local traders.
Toward delivery. however, the stubborn re-
sistance which the market had made 10 all
the efforts to get prices down and the fear
that the larger bears had deserted them. led
the local shorts to cover. and the demand be-
was developed which caused Improvement

GOOD TRIED THINGS.
Beans Without Pork.

Orange Judd Farmer.
Wash a pint of white beans and cook
in enough water to cover. AS soon as j
they begin to boil, drain off the water
and pour on quart of cold water. Lett
them cook slowly at least three hours;l
Just before they are done add pinch of
soda, salt and pepper to taste, and a.
tablespoonful butter. Some may prefer
a little salt pork cooked with them, bus
butter gives them more delicate favor
than does polk, and renders them lit
tie easier of digestion.
Steamed Bread.
Sift together two teacupsful each OF
Indian meal and rye meal. if you have
it. and one teacupful flour; add three
teacupsful sweet milk, half teaeupfuI!
molasSes, one teaspoonful each of soda
and salt, and lastly one tablespoonful
vinegar. Pour into buttered mould
and steam three hours; then remove the
cover of mold. set it in the oven and let
1t bake about fifteen minutes. If nOrye.
flour is at hand. use more wheat -four.
Potato Salad.
Boil and slice dozen large potatoes:
place in the dish from which they are to
be served and pour over them the fol-
lowing dressing: Rub smooth the yolks
OF three hard boiled eggs, add tea
spoonful each of mustard and salt, butt
ter the size of walnut. half a tea
spoonful of celery salt and fourth tea,
spoonful of pepper; mix these well with
the yolks, and then by degrees stir in !
half teaspoonful of vinegar. More
vinegar can be used If liked sour.
Chop the whites of the eggs and strewi
them over the top of the salad after the
dressing is on. A very little finely
chopped onion improves the flavor for.
most persons, alt hough some do not
like it.

portions Ol her water reserved T. the owners
Ol land immediately fronting on her waters,
certain oyster privileges. wharf sc. Nucu
OF this water privilege has been lost 90 them.

as is too generally the case, Is passive but our
GOvernOraud Legislature stand ple dyed touro-

their riparian rights recognized and J would
simply suggest that consistency, justice and
the best and most permanent Interests of
our country demand that any oyster law
should protect the riparian owner IN the first

reasonable distance TO be determined IN
