THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Review

New York, Oct S.-The bulls were APP
parcntly impressed with a belief at the
opening of the stock market today that
the beginning of the import movement OF
gold would effect a turn in the market
and send prices upward again after the
long sustained reaction. Their confidence
was dissipated very soon after noon and
the market became almost lfeless. Busi-
ISIS was of the lightest possible descrip-
tion and fluctuations were narrow and un-
important, many prominent stocks being
entirely neglected. The market seems to
have swung to a standstll. Totals sales
for the day were only 252,0oO shares.

Many statistics show that of 10 900
smoke stacks only three are struck by
lightning during the year, while of TO-
900 church spires 81. and of 10000

annually. 1t has been endeavored to ex-
plain this condition by the fact that
the smoke discharged from the smoke
stacks takes the electricity assembled
around the building along and distrib-

why people in the country kindle a
