4 srlNDlRD TIME sERYIoE.


The Telephone Company's New Service--a
Clock Invented by E. b. Baker--A sys-
tenn of Waterman Service, for Banks,
Etc, Contemplated.
President M #, Tyler of the South
ern New England Telephone company
announces that the company win soon
make q number Of important extensions
in their service in the near future, One
is the introduction of a standard time
service.
The timeplece is the invention of d.
d. Baker, the companys general super
intendent, and unlike the clocks used
by other standard time concerns it is
not actuated by an electric current, but
has a regular movement and is pro-
vided with an automatic electric self
winding mechanism, the power for
which is supplied by local battery.
The plan of the company is to sell
these clocks to the subscriber and con-
meet them to the telephone wire. Then
twice every tWenty-four synchronlze
them with standard timepiece con-
trolled by the Winchester observatory
The clocks are to be sold to the sub
scriber outright and no fee is to be
charged for the work of synchronizing
1t twice daily. The company will. how
ever, take charge of its maintenance
and only charge what it costs them to
keep the batteries in order, which VIII
be very nominal price. 1t is believed
that the clocks will not need attention
more than four times annually
Another new departure which the
company will establish in the early fall
will be a system of Waterman service
for banks, factories, offices, ware
houses and storehouses.
These improvements will no doubt be
highly appreciated by their patrons.

MARKET Ilttle LlVeifef, put StliI Intense

New York, July S.-The stock market.
while little iivelier than on yesterday,
may still be called intensely dull, The
total transactions We're 133,S0o shares,
the great bulk of which were in Sugar,
Tobacco, ST. Paul, Burlington, Chicago
Gas and Rock Island. Prices declined
n to * at the opening and later recov-
cred. Sugar and Tobacco made excep-
tional gains Of about per cent, the
former rising from 109% to Ills and
the latter from SOY to 6214 The rise
induced realizations during the after
noon, under which the whole list yield
ed n to IL per cent.
In the absence OF any known cause
the decline was ascribed to the news
received from Chicago concerning the
strength Of the free silverites and the
radical measures proposed in the plat
form These matters gave the bears
an opportunity to hammer the list, but
they made comparatively little impress
sion on prices, and commission houses
reported few offerings for the long ac-
count. In many quarters the belief OBJ
tains that the late depression In prices
fully discounted anything that the Chi
cago convention may do in the way Of
free silver.
At the moment the business Of the
exchange is confined almost exclusive
ly to the room traders but leading OPP
orators are expected to take hand af-
ter the convention takes definite action.

TWO EARTHQUAKES.
TIGHT LITTLE ISLE BADLY
SHAKEN UP.
But One Fatality, and That Was a
Woman Who Died From Fright
Some Damage Done.

London, Dec. 1.-Two strong shocks of
earthquake were felt throughout Wales,
The Midland and the south OF England
early this morning. The first shock &C.
CURED at 3 O'Clock. and the second at
$50, the waves passing from west 10
cast. Houses were violently shaken, beds
moved from their places, doors forced
open and furniture overturned. Tei.-
grams from all quarters concur in the
seconds duration, and was followed by d
loud rumbling sound and minor rumblings
of the earth. The second shock was
shorter but more severe.
Many people in Windor, Cheltenham and
other places rushed out of their houses.
but no one was hurt The cathedral at
Hereford was injured somewhat, but no
other serious damage is reported.
AT Hereford the rumbling sound was
followed by two crashes. Men and
women rushed from their houses into the
streets and one woman died from fright.
At Ruthin. the shocks were accompanied
by thunder and lightning and for 10 sec
onds there was distinct movement OIL
the earth.
AT Liverpool the shocks were followed
by thunder and lightning and there were
similar manifestations at Bridgenorth.
where the streets at first seemed to be on
fire for several seconds.
The railroad employees at Crewe re-
port that they felt the rails oscillate.
At Everham the shock was followed
by a brilliant light in the sky
The area of seismic disturbance was
unusually wide, extending hundreds of
miles from London north to Lincoln,
thence west to Lancashire, south through
Wales, Taunton and southeast to South
ampton, over 200 towns and villages be-
ing affected There were, however, no
fatalities except in the case of the woman
who died of fright at Hereford. The
telegraph lines were not affected. The
attaches of the Greenwich observatory
say that the galvanometer which regis
tiers the earth currents showed a very
great disturbance at the time of the
shocks. The observers the Stony Point
observatory say that their galvanometer
showed no signs whatever of a seismic
disturbance.
Up to Tuesday, the weather in England
was unusually mild, but on that day
there was a sudden change to severe
frost, which was followed by dense fogs
and snow yesterday. In the mining dis
tricts, it was at first thought that the
shocks were the result of celliery eX-
plosions
Today's disturbances were the first ex-
perienced in England since May so. 1880,
when the last earthquake occurred. Then.
as now no damage of serious import
was done. Seismic eruptions in England
are not new phenomena, for it is re-
corded in the official statistics on the
subject that the total number of distinct
ly felt earthquakes in the last 500 years
is 423. Coming down TO recent dates from
1881 to 1880 there were 81 shocks.
