The stock Market.

New York, Dec. 22.--The market con- tinued it's upward movement to-day on tremendous volume of business, sec ond only to the record made one day last week. London traded both ways, her purchases and sales being larger than for long time, On balance it is estimated that over S5,000 shares were taken for London account Denver and Rio Grande preferred was a favorite in both markets on predictions of ? per cent. dividend, which later material ized Union Pacific issues were absorb ed on rising prices for both foreign and domestic account, A pool appar- ently connected with prominent bank ing interests seemed in control of this stock in the local trading. There were no new developments in the property except that a good showing was fore casted for the November statement to be presently issued and the continued association of the property with the AL ton deal, in which other roads as well are supposed to be interested. Realiz- ing sales by certain large interests, al though causing a reactionary move ment early in the day, seemed to have been we'll taken considering their vol ume. Then evidence of scale buying and conspicuous purchases by two powerful interests resulted in an almost buoyant tone before noon There was covering of shorts who have expected a December reaction which failed to ap- pear to any extent thus far because of the large absorption of securities by the public. There was pronounced strength in the grangers, Rock Island crossing Ill by a handsome fraction, while St. Paul ruled around 11S and Quincy 123. The movement in these and other standard dividend paying stocks had healthful influence else where, where bull leaders were suc- cessful in stimulating the movement. Rumors of favorable developments aided some hitherto neglected issues. Minneapolis and St. Louis second pre- ferred sold at the highest price since the property was reorganized. To- bacco and Sugar displayed exceptional weakness at one time, but recovered substantially in sympathy with the late buoyant speculation. Baltimore and Ohio shares suffered from realizing consequent upon yesterdays substan- tial improvement. Missouri Pacific af- ter period of heaviness rallied points on rumors that a dividend dec laration was not improbable. Federal Steel continued its advance, the com mon rising 3 points on the favorable trade situation and the belief that pow erful interests were supporting the stock
 The bond market was irregular dur ing the early part of the day, but sub sequently moved generally upward in sympathy with the stock market. Total sales of bonds, $12,950,000.

MAHALAI JANE JARVIS.

Mahalai Jane Jarvis, aged 6S years months and 16 days, died Saturday, De cember IT, at her late residence, No. 20 Downs street, from heart failure, super induced by la grippe. Her illness was of short duration, covering period of two weeks. She was confined to her bed only five days. Her demise was a shock to the community in which she lived She was respected, loved and honored by all, and her host of friends, both colored and white, acknowledge the loss of a worthy individual.
 She was converted to the Christian faith in her early days in New York city and joined the A. M. D. Zion church. Soon after her connection with this church she removed to New Haven and was admitted as a worthy member of the A. M. E. Zion church on Foote street. Since her aff1liation with this church her relationship had been the most pleasant. She was a faithful and earnest worker in the church and truly exemplified the life of a Christian. She established missionary society known as the Daughters of Conference, which has done efficient work among the church members. Being identified with missionary work, her benevolent acts were extended beyond the borders oi her church.
 Previous to her connection with her church she was married to Oscar r. A Jarvis, who died in 1881.
 Her funeral took place from her late residence yesterday afternoon at one o'clock. The remains reposed in black cloth casket. There was a profusion ot beautiful flowers The A. M. E. Zior church contributed cross of daybreak roses, Varrick c. E. a scythe of white roses, and from the family large auG handsome pillow of flowers composed chiefly of seasonable roses The solemn rites were performed by, the Rev. Fran cis H. Hill, assisted by the Rev. T. Mel. son Baker, and a quartette from the Dixwen avenue Congregational church sang beautifully. The interment was in Evergreen cemetery.

WITH THE VEGETARTANS.

Restaurants in London Where Animal
 Food Is Tabooed, and What One Gets
 to Eat There.
 During the past month I have visit ed nearly all the one dozen vegetarian restaurants that flourish in London, and have made the interesting discov- cry that by living at these places a man can get well-cooked food, and plenty of it, for about shilling pence (30 cents) a day.
 Though owned by different people, these restaurants are all run on one general plan, and are earning handsome incomes. There are three floors. On the rst is the main dining hall, or coffee room as it is called, where meals are served a la carte at all hours of the day: on the secohd floor is the smok- ing room, where patrons can have ac- cess to all morning papers and can play chess if they wish, and on the third floor is the sixpenny table d'hote din- ner, which is served every day from lZ to3 O CLOCK.
 At the lunch hour the coffee room on the first floor of the restaurant in Queen street, which is down in the City" is filled with tidy and we'll dressed crowd of men and women, though in proportion to the men the women are only about one to ten. On this floor one often sees silk hats and frock coats, though (and this always seems strange to an American) most of the men retain their hats at table, even when there are women in the room. The prices on this floor are some what higher than on the floors above, and the service is slightly better. There is white sugar on the table instead of brown, and the spoons and forks-there are no knives-are of German silver instead of pewter, which is used on the upper floor. Rolls are served in this room instead of chunks of bread, but l could not see that thesoups and savory dishes, sweets, ets., were any better than those upstairs.
 A plate of very good soup, either pea, macaroni. or Scotch broth, is served for threepence, G cents.) though the waitress assured me there was no meat stock in it; but when asked what took the place of the stock, she was unable

The Shore Line Recorder says of Mrs. Rossiter whose death has been previ- cusly mentioned: Mrs. Susan A., rellct of the late John Rossiter passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. James H. Sutherland, on Monday afternoon, at the age of eighty-two years. The cause of death was the in firmity incident to old age. The deceas- ed was born in Clinton, her maiden name being Susan A. Wilcox. Her husband died a number of years ago. She leaves two daughters, Mrs. Suther- land of Clinton and Mrs. John G. Chap man of New Haven. She was mem- Der of the Baptist church here and a woman greatly beloved for her many Christian virtues. The funeral occurred from the late residence of the deceased at 1:30 o'clock this afternoon, Rev. R. H. Sherman of the Baptist church off1- ciating."

TO-NIGHTS POLO.

The contest Will be Between Hartford ana New Haven-Blues Now in Third Place and Will Make a Bold Bid for Second Place To-Night.
 The New Haven polo team is still dolng great work and is slowly but surely climbing up to their rightful position in the league table. They have won seven out of the last eight games played, which is a record of steady play that cannot be disputed. The teams victory at Waterbury on We'd nesday night was a popular one, and gave them firm hold on third place. Even the Waterbury rooters deserted their team and swore allegiance to the Blues for the rest of the evening in rec ognltion of their fine play. The Water bury American says: The New Haven team is playing good polo, and is entitl- ed to the position it now occupies.
 Tonight the game will be a hustler and ought to draw very large crowd. But Hartford always draws a big house, mainly owing to the neck rival ry that has always existed between the teams and partly owing to the friendly rivalry that has always existed be- tween the two cities Should New Ha- ven win tonight it will tie the Hartford and the Blues for second place. There is a big demand for seats and quite a crowd is coming from the capital city to witness the game. The great Wodtke will of course be in it, and from the accounts he is playing a very fast game at present. The follow ing is the standing of the clubs to date:
