LONDON MONEY MARKET.

LONDON. November l5.-Money rates
nave been firm and there has been "a
Disk demand for gold from the continent.
II Is probable that large shipments are
going TO India shortly. Dear money has
restricted business on the Stock Exchange

ments except mines, which were stag
nant and depressed on the apprehension
that the Transvaal would demand a big
indemnity Of the chartered South At

Public Investments in the African market
have almost wholly ceased Seemingly
the speculative element has transferred
its affection 10 cheap American adven-
lures. The demand of low priced bonds
and shares Of reorganiZed railroads is ac-
tive 40 increasing prices The Venezue-

effect on the market but for the rumors of

LAWYER HAD TO MOVE.
All on Account of Meeting a Lady on
the Stairs.

Had people in the vicinity of an up
town boarding house cared 10 arouse
themselves and listen al a rather early
hour one night last week they might
have heard wells and screeches and
other noises that would have made a
warlike Indians utterances plain 81
lence
Suddenly the noise hushed and lights
burned in the house that had up to the
time been dark Many of those who
halted TO listen as they passed went on
without knowing any more about il.
In the boarding house resides law
yer. Sometimes another day arrives
before he returns from his last trip of
the day before. He has long been in
the house and is considered as "one Of
the family" One of his duties is to
turn out the gas as he goes 10 his own
apartments. No one is ever supposed
to be away from the house after he has
returned.
Another denizen Of the house is a
Young lady. There is nothing uncom-
mon in the assertion. for there are
young ladies in almost every well-or-
ganized boarding house
On the night in question the lawyer
left darkness behind hin. as he went
up stairs. II so happened that the
Young lady started for the basement as
the lawyer extinguished the light She
expected 10 meet no one and dressed
accordingly. She decided TO stand on
a landing on the steps and let the light
20 out and the lawyer pass and none
would be the wiser.
Fate had arranged matters other
wise. The last light was turned out
and the disciple of Blackstone wendell
his way up the weary flight. He thrust
out his hand as he CROPPED along. The
landing was reached. The hand fol-
lowed the wall. It toubhed the young
lady
Yell followed yell. and the bannisters
trembled with vocal efforts. Then
came a noise such as would be made if
a lawyer slid from a stair landing 10
the floor below on the bannister. An
other yell followed his speedy arrival
al the foot Of the stairs.
The young lady had regained her
composure and called down words OF
recognition and encouragement. She
lighted the gas and ran. The lawyer
cancelled the yells that were vet to
come and picked his way to his own
quarters. while a night-capped head ap-
peared from every door along the
route.
The LAWYER can now be found at an
other boarding house.
