BANK STATEMENT.
NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

New York, Feb. 6.-There was little
of Importance in the transactions of the
stock exchange to-day, the dealings being
on a small scale and the fluctuations of
prices being within narrow limits, fifty
closing a week which has proved dull
throughout in spite of the hopes enter
tanned at the beginning of a revival in
trading. To-day's opening proved rregu-
lar, but generally heavy under much the
same influences as yesterday. A feeling
of uneasiness centered about the indus
trial shares, undoubtedly due to the pro-
ceedings of the legislative trust investiga-
ton going on in the city. In the railway
list also the publication of some disap-
pointing traffic statements of the South
western lines exerted generally depress-
ing influence with ST. Louis, Southwest
ern, l.. and n. and Southern preferred
leading the decline The industrials
found fairly good support but figured less
prominently in the dealings than yester-
day. 1t was only in the final hour that
the market exhibited any decided tone
and then the professional traders started
to cover extensively i'll the industrials.
AS a consequence Sugar, Leather pre-
ferred and American spirits, both common
and preferred improved on an average
of about point. A few of the railway
stocks also came into prominence, doubt
less influenced by the excellent showing
of the weekly bank statement.
The market left off generally firm for
the week on covering by shorts, the net
losses on the leading railways being l to
per cent. The changes in the industrials
were more notable, particularly in Sugar
and Leather preferred the former being
down 33s and the latter 215.
The bond market during the week was
unusually animated, the transactions
footing up $15,292, ,000 The feature of
the dealings was the constant absorption
of large blocks of the leading bonds for
continental account. The prominent in
vest1nent houses reported keen inquiry
for all grades of mortgages with the low
priced issues in marked favor.
The speculative bonds moved in sym
pathy with the stock market at times,
but the speculation as a whole was ex-
ceedingfy strong in tone. The changes
record improvements, generally ranging
UP to five per cent in Norfolk and West
ern gold SIS. Some declines were regis
tered but without significance outside of
Kentucky Central As, which lost per
cent, Missouri Pacific collateral SIS 5 and
New York, New Haven and Hartford
As 45s per cent.

LENGTHY DISCUSSION ON MAT
TER OF DISEASED COWS.
If Any Healthy Animals Are Slaugh!-
cred by Mistake the Owners Feel
that They Should BE Reimbursed.

Two committees were chosen at the
regular meeting of the Board OF
Health yesterday afternoon to deter
mine how much authority the 30 nj
had in the matter of Strengthening dis
eased cattle and whether owners could
be reimbursed by the Goyernmcn; fot
their loss.
This action was the outcome Of Il
lengthy discussion OIL the matter Of
diseased COWS entered into by Presi-
dent Cooper, Doctors Day, Wood, En-
erSon. MonSarrat, MesSrs. Thep. T.

Keliipio for the Board of Health aud
Messrs. Dillingham;. Grace, Won Holt,
Werricll and j. f. Ilackfeld, represent
ing Mr.. lsenberg, on behalf of the
dairymen of the city.
Mr.. Dillingham; OBLIGATED as SpoI;cS-
man for the various dairy managers
and, i'm so doing, stated that the man,
agemcnt of the different dairies were
as strict in the observance of the
health laws as the Government could
possibly ask He did not believe that
any milk would be sent out which was
known he impure. Mr.. Dillingham;
did not approve of the idea of the Gov
eminent killing off cattle without
compensation to the owners. Some
cattle were not diseased, and an indis
criminiate killing, without reimburse
ment, would be a serious loss to the
men who had placed their money il
such enterprises.
DR.. Emerson gave it as his opinion
that the matter should be considered
by the Board under two heads: first
compensation for animals killed TO
tuberculosis and proven by post NOR
tenn examination not to have the dis
ease, and compensation for thos
afflicted" The committee will repor
at the next meeting on the matter.

return to the land OF his fathers and
help to impart this knowledge to

sufficiently at least to warrant him

be no peace here till the negro does
