WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.

Thursday, April l3-p. m
The stock market was more active to-day, but
the movement of prices was downward In the
absence of public interest there could be no other
logical result from an increase in business. ~
NAV be admitted at once that Europe is specula-

The receipt of securities from Europe is tcchni-

the world wants 10 pay its debts on demand. In
the present condition Of the Federal Treasury II
is evident that the United States may soon be dis

The immediate outflow Of gold Is owing TO the

these loans is past finding out. Dut that IL l.

A CELESTIAL MUMMY.
A Tale Invented by q Cinnamon fc
q Reporters Ratification.

a Tale Invented by ChinRmeu for
q Reporters Publication.
From the NslV York Recorder
Last Wednesday evening an incident oc-
CURED in Chinatown that stirred the resi-
dents 20 the extreme alcoves OF their three
cornered souls. Some toilsrs Of the sea
were out celebrating the anniversary OF
Washington's birthday, and eventually
found themselves in the wilds Of Mott
street.
The sailors had tried fautan and were on
their way to investigate the pipe when they
found themselves 10 the presence OF Chi
nese mummy.
Whether they did not like the expression
on the mummys counteDance, or to what
they took offence cannot be said, but at all
events the ancient relic was seized upon
and bore rapidly to the street, and amid
the chatterinR and frantic gesticulation OF
the excited Celsstials was handled in
mos. ignOminious and ribald manner, and
finally cast upon "a passing dray, causing
the Mortified position to comfort himself
into series Of spasmodic demonstrations,
when 1t finally fell to the ground, and was
Quickly spirited away to parts unknown.
1t seems away back century or more
ago there were certain cOnjurer, Yen See
by name, In his art the greatest in the land.
For him to call serpents from twigs Of
wood or produce fire from pool of water,
was but child's play.
One day he was summoned before the
king to show mis- talent. After performing
many wonderful feats he finally produced
bal of Irvine and, calling a small boy to
him, through the ball Of twipe into the air
and told the small boy to ascend, which he
did. disappearing from the eyes of the king
only to lie called back by a jerk Of the cord
from Yen Sen.
- Alt
this extraordinary feat, that the king conn
manded his Youngest son to take the place
# the urchin, and 90 up the cord, thus
showing his confidence IN the conjurer.
When the young prince approached his
fate he objected to going up on the same
cord that had been used for the Celestial
gamin before him, aud when Yen Lee ex-
planned that be had no other handy, since
his wife had hung the clothes out on the
only other one lie did have that morning,
the child became angry, and as he began
his ascent Of the cord, he expectorated in
Zen Lees left optic and kicked him under
the chin, as a parting tribute. This so
sngered Yen Lee that he let 60 the cord and
the boy never came down.
Then the king became very wroth and
pronounced curse on Yen Lee, declaring
cast into the streets, and barked at by dogs,
and then had him embalmed alive.
Since that time his descendants have
scrupulously red for his remains, to pre-
vent the carrying out of tine kings curse.
All Chin lee kept the remains in a cor
ner OF his store till last night. Their pres
ent whereabouts is unknown, but the awful
prophecy is fulfilled, or so thinks, or affects
to think, the calm, almond-eyed individual
who told this tale TO the reporter. Some
Celestials have a sense of humor and even
a faculty OF invention.
