The Rate for Money Advances, but It At
fects Stocks Little.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
NEW YORK, July Money contin les to
dominate the course Of prices in the stock mar
ket, and although conditions are daily show
ing signs of improvement the volume
of business and the essential features of
speculation remain unchanged. Money on call
is more abundant than at any time for weeks,
and some ''time'' money is to be had at
the legal rate and per cent commission. With
the banks themselves paying per cent on
S2,0OO 600 clearing house certificates money
cannot be expected to loan at a lower rate
until these obligations are redeemed.
The opening prices this morning were
generally strong and at slight advances
from last nights closing. Commission orders
are scarce and prices are made almost entirely
by professional operators who are covering OUT
standing contracts in view of the easier rate for
money.
Some good buying OF New York and New
England advanced the price of that stock from
points to 104. Manhattan was strong
throughout the day, advancing to 124sl, net
gain of % points from the opening price.
Burlington advanced q to IS, Western Union
y to slsl and General Electric q to ~.
The issuing of the So 500, 900 certificates by
affairs Of that concern into better shape and
will supply the necessary funds for immediate
wants and be very acceptable to the creditors
Of the company. The stock was strong around

The Denver and Rio Grande has been
watched with more than usual interest because
of rs connection with the silver mines, from
which source most Of its traffic comes
At a meeting Of the directors Of the COM
pany held yesterday afternoon il was deemed
inexpedient to declare q dividend on the pre-
ferred stock while the condition Of the silver
Iiarket remains 80 uncertain.
The stock is selling at 50, which is exactly
five points lower than the lowest recorded price
during the Barring panic Of 1890.
At O'Clock the rate for money ad vanced to
8per cent and prices shaded off a little in con-
sequence; 100000 additional clearing house
certificates were issued today, making the total
amount now outstanding S22. $50. 900, the maxi
mum since the issue commenced. This news
and the sitter rate for money made but little
impression on prices, considering the narrow
ness Of the trading.
The clearing house statement shows the SUBJ
treasury debtor S233.9s5.
Barring, Magoun h Co. advanced the rate of
sterling exchange one-half point to 4S41 aa4S61&

"Semi- Detached" Ireland,

From the Spectator.
No ''semi-detached' empire can ever be
strong, but semi-detached empire of which
the newly detached fragment is both divided
against itself and in its inner bias disloyal
to the empire at large must be of the
weakest possible kind; and this is pre-
ciseiy what we have to expect if Ireland is
ito be semi-detached under the conditions
proposed in Mr.. Gladstones bill. And not
only will the bias of the whole semi
detached fragment be disloyal, we shall
have no loyalty to expect even from
that part of it which is at present the
chief ally OF Great Britain in Iceland.
Ulster will be alienated from Great Britain,
without being reconcied to the other provinces
Of Ireland, by the home rule bill. Probably
the only point of sympathy between Ulster and
the south. after home rule Is passed, if it ever
should pass, would consist in a sense of griev-
ance and hostility against Great Britain for her
historical misdeIleanors. -

Hebrew Exodus from Rnssia

From the London Daily News
Our Odessa correspondent writes: Acco, ding
to advices from Memel the exodus of Russian
Jewish emigrants passing through that port

200 daily leave the por, .aentioned Railway
tickets alone are sometimes sold to the value of
10000 marks in a single day. We are told Of a
few instances where as many as 800 emigrants
OF the poorer class, exclusive of children. have
peen crowded into five railway wagons. Osten-
sibly all these emigrants are TO proceed from
Bremen and Rotterdam to America, but it il
no secret that large section OF them are max

Care of the Convalescent.

The care Of convalescents is at once the most
tedious aud the most delightful part Of nurses
duty, writes Elizabeth Robinson Scovil in the
July Ladies' Home Journal. The severe symp-
toms have abated. The temperature is lower,
the mercury in the clinical Thermometer no
longer hovers between 104 degrees and los de-
grees, causing the nurses heart to sink as it
ascends. She does not stand with her finger
on the futtering pulse, anxiouslt noting
whether the rate is increased, or how its
strength compares with the condition of yester-
day. She does not feel a sickening thrill Of
alarm every time the respiration quickens or
changes. She relaxes her vigilance and VEN
lures to breathe freely herself once more
Yet as much care Is needed at this period of
the illness as at any other. There are precau-
tions which must not be omitted il the invalid
is to be carried safely through it.
In all diseases there are special dangers to be
guarded against, and this applies to the con-
valescence we'll as to the illness itself. After
diphtheria the tissues of the heart are in
weakened condition. Any overexertiou or
sudden strain may make a demand upon il that
it is unequal to meet in its enfeebled state, and
death follows. In the recovery from scarlet
fever child may develop disease which will
cause life long ill health. if it does not end
fatally. After measles, when the lungs are
weak, and the eyes also, any imprudence may
cause disastrous results.
Death has followed excess in eating after
typhoid fever. when the patient seemed COM
paratively well.
There are four enemies which lie in wait for
the convalescent, and the nurse must be on the
watch to prevent their attacks:
Cold.
Overfatigue.
Excitement.
Indigestion.
Cold is, perhaps. the most to be feared. be-
cause it is the most common and brings a long
train Of ills with It Forethought is needed
because after the mischief is done it is too late
to remedy it.
1t is not necessary to keep the room her
metically sealed aud shut out all fresh air; on
the contrary, ventilation should be kept up.
carefully avoiding draughts. Before the patient
gets out of bed for the first time the room
should be at temperature Of ~ degrees.
Eleven O'Clock IN the morning is the best hour
to choose. Do not attempt too much dressing
Have ready pair OF warm drawers, a flannel
jacket. thick stockings. soft slippers and loose
wrapper. The best kind OF wrapper id one
made Of jersey flannel or a blanket. II it il of
thinner flannel it should be lined making what
our grandmothers called 40 double gown"
There should be no trimming, and it should

Wheel an easy chair close to the bed spread
a blanket, large thick shawl or soft afghan over
the seat, and when the patient is dressed effect
