whether the woman was really dead.
Ammonia was held to her nostrils and
she revived.
She has since lain In semi uncon-
scious condition, but seems TO be gaining
strength. Hopes are entertained OF her
re covery. The woman has been subject
TO heart-disease for several years, and
It was in an attack OF that kind that her
supposed death took place.

There were no traces In the stock mar
ket this morning OF the excitement
which prevailed at the Exchange yes
terday afternoon, when 1t became known
that the Rock Island quarterly dividend
had been cut dawn from 1 to IL per cent.
Operators evidently were of the opin-
ion that the action Of the Board had been
more than discounted by the drop OF 6
points in the stock, and the bears tried
to reduce their outstanding contracts.
The result was that the tendency of the
market, for time feverish, in the main
was upward, and there were plenty of
buying orders on all the reactions.
The fact that quotations came steady
from London, together with the state
ment OF the Northwest road for August,

months of 1893 their receipts amounted

protected by a tariff, it is very evident
that the prosperity of the country under
a protective tariff affords larger receipts
to those engaged in the theatrical pro-
fession than the disturbed condition of
the country will permit under the mere
threat of free trade. When people are

ly trifiing loss Of some $3.50, 600, 900 to
trade in the United States as compared
with the business during the same
months of 1892. a year later we find
that the aggregate shrinkage Of business
for the corresponding period in 1894
has exceeded 50, 500, OOO, 900 as com
pared with 1898, while this years bust
hess as compared with that of the pros
porous year of 1892 shows the enormous
