New YOrk's Bridge Of SIshs.


New York's"Bridge of Signs" is complet-
ed. 1t is the bridge that spansF rankin street
from the center of the third floor of the
new criminal courthouse to the Tombs,
and 1t is an ornate and attractive looking
bridge on the whole, despite the gloomy
associations that must perforce become con-
-nected with its future history. 1t is sixty
feet in length, about Is feet in height, is 10
feet wide and ia built entirely of iron and
steel, save for its flooring, which is of
thick slabs of slate. 1t is lighted by large
windows, securely but not too heavily
barred, and glazed with heavy opaque
glass, through which the prisoners can
not see into the world of liberty without,
and at the courthouse and it leads into
small room fanked on either hand by two
large cells, the fronts of which are formed
of iron bars from floor to ceiling, and
which are intended respectively for the
temporary detention of prisoners
awaiting examination or trail. OF course
1t WAS q matter of certainty that this over
head passagsway leading from the gloomy
prison to the palatial courts of justice
would be popularity known as the "Bridge
of Sighs," but it is equally certain that in

title than did the famous original that
spans one of the narrow waterways of
Venice. Taking the average figures of the
past five years as basis, 1t will be seen
that each twelve month will witness great
army of unfortunstes, numbering not less
than 81, 200 men and women, cross the
Bridge Of Sighs" to learn their fstes in
the court room beyond, and of this number
two thirds will recro.s 1t to undergo the
penalties which justice has melted out to
them. OF this ever flowing stream of
human crime and misery three-fourths
will be of the sterner sex, and as it's guilty
ones are poured back into the prisons the
| streams will divarge into lesser streams
flowing toward the work house. the pen
itentisry. the state prison and rsformatories
the lunstic asylums and the homes and
hospitals wherein the halt and the blind
and the little waits and strays find a rest
ing place from their battle with the world.
A motley proc ession. And so it will be
indeed a strangely mixed and motley array
this vast annual Iarmy of the Bridge of
Sighs," and 1t will include every grade of
criminal, from the sristocrats of evil deeds,
such as tho murderers and the great rob-
bers of trusts and widows and orphans,
down to the shiveriDg and starving wretch
es who are dragged to the bar of justice
to answer to the charge of "interfering
with the contents of an ash barrel"

Prices Reelected Extreme Discourage
ment From the OPening-The Bank
Statement Threw No Fresh Light
ON the Situation.
NEW YORK, Dec. 23.-From the open
ing of to-day's stock market the prices
reflected an extreme encouragement. There
was some heavy selling of speculative long
stocks, and numerous unpleasant rumors re-
garding corporations were diligently circulated.
London's market, too, was closed, which cut of
possible support from that quarter. In the last
half hour many short contracts were covered,
and some stocks rallied even above their open
ing figures. But these were nevertheless the ex-
captions.
The days gloomy feeling was not without due
cause All Of the rumors, which professional
Wall street took for fact, were fatty in con-
tradiction of official statements. The defalca-
ton in the St. Nicholas bank. though not really
altering the banks situation. was sentimentaIly
Another factor, which may safely
be assumed to have played its part, was the an
nouncement of the Northwestern's officers that
. report OF monthly net earnings, which was
