New York.

New YORK, June 13.-The stock
market was even duller than usual to-
day. The dealings were almost entirely
professional, and as the feeling among
the traders in the board is still beariSh,
further decline in prices was record
ed. The advices from the West of ad-
ditiOnal bank failures and troubles in
the mercantile world aided the bears
materially in their operations. The
continued shipments OF currency, and
consequent tirmnCSS Of the rates for
time money also had an influence upon
speculation. Under the circumstances,
the decline in the share list was by
no means heavy, ranging from %
to ~ per cent, the latter in General
Electric, which sold down to 7035. The
Chicago Gas, Sugar, AtchiSon. Western
Union, Reading, Northern Pacific pr g.
ferred and the grangers, During the
afternoon the supply Of money on call
increased and the rate declined from
to per cent. On this the smaller shorts
attempted to cover, and prices improved
I@14 per cent. A feature of the rally
was the comparatively light offerings as
the advance made progress. Taken al
together, it was an uncommonly quiet
and featureless session. The market
closed firm in tone.
The Post says: "Many people are
accustomed to base their judgment of
the financial situation solely on the
course of New York Stock exchange
prices, that the present market weak
ness, due primarily to the tight money
market, has changed the views of even
the most hopeful observers. Among
other effects, there is to be heard the
complaint that last weeks foreign
wheat purchases were in popular re-
ports greatly over estimated. But what
these despondent critics forget is that
the rapid bidding up Of ocean freights-
grain rates for Liverpool have trebied
themselves within month-makeS
it the obvious i2terest of ship
pers to dscreiit large esti-
mates. A much more significant
factor is the future price of grain.
Were wheat to recover suddenly from
its present low price. real danger
would arise in the inducemeut offered
foreign holders of options to sell their
contracts here and reap double profit
by covering the recent sales of ex-
change. But wheat prices do not rally,
and it is at least reasonable, especially
with two-thirds of Chicago's contract
wheat in the hands of one operator, to
grain similar to that which has so long
prevailed in securities. AS for the
westward money shipments there is
this much to be said, that the funds
have left the New York banks to
seek a locality where there are
far more yitally needed. More
over, these are shipments which will
presently seek New York again as
surely as water finds its level. OF this
there can be no dispute. The present
movement in money, III short, is ex-
actly what this market regularly eX-
poets in March and in September. The
currency entanglements have placed
New York i'll position less competent
than usual to meet interior demands,
but all of this might have beon autici-
pated."

THE winter of 1992-93 is sure to be
noteworthy as one of the coolest ever
experienced in the eastern Atlantic and
middle states. The statistics of the
weather bureau show that the average
temperature for January has been much
lower than that of any corresponding
period since the service was established,
and even the coolest inhabitant" has
forgotten the exact date when such a
continued period of cold weather has
prevailed. The weather is the more re-
markable, since it follows a series of
mild winters, which have provoked in
quiry as to a p ossible change of climate.
That the climate has not changed is
amply proven by the long continuance
of the cold weather, which is
fully as long and severe as any which
the present generation can remember.
Meteorologists are still at loss to &C
count for the apparent changes which
occur in the climate of any particular
place in the temperate zone. In certain
regions in the tropics it is comparatively
safe to prophesy the condition which
will prevail at any particular date, but
between the borders of the temperate
zones is the battle ground of the winds
where hot and moist, and cold and dry
strive perpetually for the mastery. 1t
seems hopeless to reduce to scientific
order the multiform causes which in.
fluence the success of one or another OF
the factors of the problem of the

A DOUBLE TRAGEDY.
Jealous Michigan Man Shoots His WIFI,
and Her Partner.

JACKSON, Mich, Feb. 10.-A terrible
tragedy has just been enacted here, and
two persons are lying at the city hospital
in a dying cogdition in consequence.
Charles Brown, formerly hack
driver, shot his wife twice in the body
Dick Sly, an ex-convict, was the cause
of the tragedy, and into his head Brown
fired a bullet, which entered just above
the left ear, penetrating the brain.
Neither can recover.
Brown was arrested after desperate
attempt to shoot Alderman John Gaebel-
sin, who answered the calls for help of
the inmates of the block.
At the police station Brown confessed
to the shooting. He said Sly was hang
ing about Mrs. Brown, and he got sick of
it. He had followed the ex-convict to
the room occupied by his wife, and there
shot both of them.
