Justice Patrick Gavan Duffy, after
-ong and faithful service in sending
some thing like 10000 criminals to the
Island, has now retired from his judicial
position. His late associates are now
telling stories about him. One of these

the criminals with decidedly modern
English, interSpersed with middle-age

whose breath could have been sliced up
into sandwiches took offenSe at Duify's
language and expressed himself very
strongly to the commitment clerk.

what you have told me and | will see
that you get Off without being locked

"Done!" replied the prisoner.
When arraigned before the bar Duffy
began his usual TRADE as follows:
Here You are again, ell? Why don't
you keep sober? Why do you want to
disgrace decent people by coming here
in this condition! Amt you ashamed
of yourself, you miserable drunkard-"
Here he was Interrupted by the pris-

"Oh. 90 bag your head, you old foe

asylum! Why, you can't sit straight in
the chair! You're Il fine specimen to be

Duffy looked down at the prisoner
aghast. He did not comprehend his
violent onslaught. But when he glanced
at the commitment and saw that it was
for insanity, he thought he had solved
the mystery, and hustled the man down
stairs. Here he was examined by the
Tombs physician, who quickly discov-
cred that it was simply a case of too
much liquor and discharged him. This
Will be the first intimation to the retir-
ing Justice Of the joke that was played
upon him by the clerk.
Justice Duffy once tried to work the
Solomon act while on the bench. There
was dispute about the ownership of a

both insisted on their rights OF owner

"Well, Well settle it," said his hon

you hold The dog. When l give the
word each man must call. the animal,

The men took their positions and be-

Wheat was lower, as the late clique
prices were not sustained. Country
team roads are improved, and III some
parts farmers are selling freely. This
gives fresh railroad movements, with
grain in transit that may be turned to
any market that promises the best re-
suits. Whatever the clique dealing in
Chicago may be. it seems to weaken

others fall also. for they were sustained

LONDON, Feb. 19.-During the past
week discount was in better demand,
and firm at % for three months and 81
for short. The market is becoming
altogether healthier. although sharp
rise in rates is not expected. Gold has
been in only moderate demand in the
open market. Foreign exchanges have
continued moving in our favor. Con-
tinental requirements are still met by
American shipments. In the silver
market there has been little alteration.
Moderate supplies have been offered for
sale, but the supply on hand is very
limited Sellers for forward delivery
are somewhat uneasy. The Indian de-
mand remains steady. Mexican dollars
were in moderate demand and steady
throughout the week.
Business on the stock exchange was
generally inactive during the week
There was continued buying of the
soundest stocks, but even this did not
uniformly improve, advantage being
taken of the recent advance to secure
profits. The tone in speculative depart

FINANCIAL.
New York.

New YORK, Feb. 1S.-In the two
hours of business at the stock exchange
today 693. 900 shares changed hands, and
of this amount oyer 514, 600 were Read
ing alone, leaving only 1000 for the re-
mainder of the list. The figures Suffi-
GENTLY indicate where the interest lay,
and the general market presented few
features worthy of note. The gen
eral tendency was still to break
away from the influence OF
the serious declines i'll Reading,
New England and a few of the indus
trials which have occurred during the
week; and at one time decidedly
strong tone was manifested by some OF
the industrials and most railroad shares,
especially the grangerS. which were
bought to some extent for foreign ac-
count. The street is inclined to take a
more hopeful view of the situation and
believes that the declines are about
over, and bankers are disposed to adj
wise their customers to buy again. be-
lieving that the influence Of the breaks
has been seen in its full extent.
The liquidation in Reading was re-
sumed in full force this morning, and
the volume of business for the first hour
was entirely unprecedented, while the
drop from As to 3615 was accomplished
in about ten minutes. New England
at the same time retired from 47$l to AZ,
but at this point strong local demand
was developed for both stocks, and New
England rallied to Az and Reading to
ssh. But in the late dealings the SELL
ing was resumed, and Reading re-
tired to 36$5, while New En-
gland dropped 45s per cent to
40. The last-named, however, dropped
* per cent toward the close, its final
loss being 23$5 per cent, but Reading at
3656 was down Al :. A story that the
other coal roads were shading March
prices induced some bear selling, and
Lackawanna was depressed IL per
cent to 124. These losses were after
ward made up. The action of the Penn
sylvania in withdrawing from connec-
ton with the New England was factor
in making lower prices for that stock, as
indicating more powerful opposition to
the combination.
- Among the industrials some early
weakness in Cordage, which was de-
pressed per cent to 633l, was followed
by recovery to &C, but Sugar was
strong from the outset, rising nearly 2
per cent to 1853. The late drive, how
ever, wiped out these gains, and both
closed with a small loss. Burlington at
one time showed gain of rs per cent
and General Electric of 1}s, but both
closed practically unchanged. Manhat-
tan rose in the early dealings from 1894
to 1921, but yielded portion of the adj
vance, closing only per cent higher at
1917. The remainder OF the list was
inclined to advance. bat remained with
in narrow limits and their final changes
were Insignificant.
