Stock Market Opened This Morning
Strong and Firm.
New York, July 22.-The success which
attended the efforts of the leading bank
ers in the matter ofsustaining the Treasury
gold reserve had good effect abroad and
this morning London advices reported an
advance of Ia to 3-f per cent in Amer
leans despite the weak closing of our
market yesterday.
The confidence displayed by the foreign
ers encouraged local operators to buy for
turn and many of the nalier bears
rushed in TO cover. The result was gen.
eral advance of 1-4a1 IL per cent dur
ing the first half hour of trading. Sugar
rose IS to 1O3, st. Paul, 1 to 30 Ia;
Chicago Gas, IA To 90 LIZ; Burlington,
to 6i 81; Rock Island, 1-2 to 90 Ii;
Northwest, 1 to 81 12;; Louisville and
Nashville, IS to 46 "a; Manhattan, Is
to 94 5-S: New York Central, 1-2 to 50;
Leather, preferred, 1 Ia to 46 3-S and
Western Union, 3-S to IS rs.
Subsequently it was announced that ST.
0O0,O in gold had been ordered for
shipment to Europe. This amount was un-
expectedly large. and served to check the
rising tendency Of the market. A few
stocks developed weakness, but the ma
jority of the active stocks held remark
ably well. considering the heavy gold en-
gagements. Leather preferred fell 1 3-s
to 40: Chicago Gas, to 51 1-2, and
Omaha, to SO, while the general market
ran off Ia to 7-s per cent.
Sugar was rather weak throughout on
cable reports OF a heavy market for raws
abroad. Refined sugar. here. however.
opened unchanged. Stocks at II o'clocS
were quite firm. with prices slightly above
last nights closing.

LESSON IN po1soNs.
Druggist in Kentucky Has Set Up
Queer Window.

Queer Window.
II seems scarcely wise for a man in the
State of Kentucky to declare that whisky
is poison, says the San Francisco Exam
iner.
But there is a reckless Individual in Mich
olasville, KY, who has done 1t, and done it
in bold, disa greeable sort of way, too.
This persons name, which Is apt to be an
anathema in Kentucky henceforth, is James
W. Gordon. He is i'll the drug business In
Nichoiasvilie. Just how long his neighbors
and fellow -townsmen will encoura ge him in
pursuit OF trade is very difficult to say.
Mr.. Gordon has gratuitousiy rubbed it
in" to his compatriots on the somewhat
dangerous score of whisky. He has fitted
up in the front OF his drug store what he
calls u poison windo W, and bottle Of the
com Juice dear 10 the Kentucky heart is
there.
The window is a grewsome thing. It
Is whole Course Of lessons TO u man who
wants to commit suicide. In the middle,
white aud grInning, is u skull. Clutched in
its teeth is the deadly cigarette, an ash
clingipg a its tip. At the right of the skull
is bottle filled with the good corn juice
OF The Kentuckians' daddies. at its left
is a bottle of port wine. Scattered about in
| the foreground are cards, dice and poker
| chips.
| The rest OF the window is filled with
small Jars continuing liquid puisons and pa
| pers upon which are heaped powders enough
| OF various sorts TO end the troubles of u
regiment. Every article is labeled, from
| the cigarette to the prussic ucid, and tc
prevent any possible misunderstanding Of
his meaning, Mr. Gordon has fronted ihe
| whole deadly collection with astart!ing sign,
which reads: Every article in this win
dow is Poison
| What makes the druggists venture more
inexplicable Is that he is voter in Ken
lucky and carries no life insurance. His
pharmacy may be perfectly correct, but his
lack OF policy is pitiful.
