FINANCE AND COMMERCE.
Now York stock Market.

NEW YORK. July 1.-Wall street was
in more confident mood to day as
the anxiety which has been 30 pro.
nounced during the week gave way to
feeling OF relief. The change was
due entirely to President Cleveland 8
proclamation calling for an extra SEES
sion OF Congress to provide legislation
to alleviate the financial distress. The
opening of the stock market was &C
tive and excited and in the first fifteen
minutes OF business prices bour id
up II to AZ per cent. American Sugar
preferred jumped Az to sex, st. Paul
and Duluth ~ and the general list II
to 2M per cent.
While tho bears were the most anx.
lous buyers, purchasers were not con-
fined to tho shorts by any means. Com.
mission houses reported little more in.
.quiry from outside sources and If money
should work easier next week they
look for a continuance of the demand.
Changers, Lacaawanna, Union Pacific,
Manhattan and Western Union were
among tho strongest stocks at opening
Toward II o'clock the markets quoted
down considerably and prices ran off.
Some OF tho traders then began to dis.
cuss the effect of the bank statement,
which they expected would be unfavor.

They were correct in their premises,
and when the statement was given out
showing a loss of 81, 23O,25O in surplus
reserve, bringing the amount held in
excess OF legal requirements to Si,251,-
T25, the whole market weakened. The
decline from tho top figures of the
morning was equal to n to 23s per cent,
and the reaction was greatest in In
dustrials, Missouri Pacific, the Changers,
Lackawanna and Western Union Tho
market left off comparatively weak,
although majority OF the prominent
shares show net gains OF u to ~ per

not only withstands the heavy rains to 4
remarkable degree, but keeps the hut COO

women braid a coarse cloth Of palm leave,

II the reader is contemplating the erec-
ton of a lightning protector, these points
may OF service to him;
First-Get good iron or copper con,
ductor OF rod or tape form, preferably the
latter. II copper, have it weigh about six
ounces to the foot; II iron, about two
pounds to the foot
Second-The nature of the locality will
determine to great degree the need Of q
rod. In some localities rods are imperative,
in others needless.
Third-The very best ground you can
get is, after ALL for some flashes none too
good. Therefore do not imagine that you
Gun overdo it in making good ground.
Fourth-"If the conductor at any part OF
its course goes near water or gas mains, ii
is best to connect it to them. Wherever
one metal ramification approaches another
it is best to connect them metallically."
Fifth-The top Of the rod should be

Sixth-Independent grounds are prefer

Thomas Topham, born in London in ITO,
was man possessed OF extraordinary
strength. He once lifted three casks filled
with water and weighing in all / 1886
pounds. He is said to have had the com
bined strength of IL men.
He could bend stout bar of iron by hold
ing the two ends with his hands, placing
the middle of the bar behind his neck and
bringing the two ends forward. He could
also undo what he had done-that is,
Strengthening the bar again, much more
difficult feat.
He broke n rope fastened to the ground
that would sustain 1000 weight and lifted
an oak table @ feet long with his teeth,
though II half hundred weight was hung at
the extremity. With one hand he raised
man who weighed 81 stone.
Once, seeing a Waterman asleep in his
box, he carried away both man and box
long distance. 1t Is said of him that, hav
ing been placed on some duty at the en-
trance gate OF race course, he refused t.
allow four horse coach to go through
On the driver whipping up his horses ant
attempting to pass, Topham took hold OF
the hind wheels of the coach and upset i,
and it's occupants into the roadway.
Topham, who kept public house in Is

to such an extent that she drove him t.

Lowest Rate of tho Year TO Chicago.
The rapidly approaching termlna,
ton of tile Columbian Exposition and
this enormous travel now directing 1t.
self to Chicago prompt the Pennsyl
vanin II. Il. Co., to still further reduce
its round-trip rate on the popular
Worlds Fair Coach Excursion. The
rate from Philadelphia will be $l7
Lancaster, $685.; Harrisburg, SIS. rs
Altoona. Sl4 so, and a prnportfonate
reduction from other points along the
main line and branches. These rates
apply only to special trains leaving on
September 2Sth. October I'd anu an ad
Iditional one Just arranged for October
9th. The tickets will. as before, be
good for return passage within ten
days on trains leaving Chicago at 8. Is
and 1l.30 p. M.
The rate has nov reached tho lowest
possible point, and la within the means
OF almost every one. which end the
railroad company has long been en-
deavoring TO attain. Early applica-
tion for tickets is urged, in view of
the increased demand which will un-
follow this liberal announce-
ment.
The service for this travel will be
maintained at the same standard for
which the Pennsylvania Railroad Com.
pany is justly worldwide famous.
