autopsy room, and cononer's Office on the
first floor, and waiting rooms for men
and women witnesses, toilet rooms and
rooms for morgue keeper on second floor,
and a cellar sufficient for heating and

heating would cost about $500, and the
refrigerating plant about $3.50, leaving d
margin OF $500 for the preparation of

New Orleans, Oct. 10-It IS estimated
that the Illinois Central Railroad is los
ing 500 600 per day on its Southern busi-
ness. as a result of the stringent yellow
fever quarantine. 1t has completely tied
up the Yazoo and Mississippi Valley di-
vision and has badly hampered all traf-

way. Passenger coaches on all the roads

WALL STREET DEPRESSED.
Tobacco an Exception to a Gener.
ally Heavy 0pening

My iiea"S opehihs-
New York, Oct. 10,-There was gener-
al hesitation and heaviness in the stock
market at the opening today. The
threatening of Anglo-French relations,
disturbing domestic political talk. the
yellow fever news, and uncertainty as
to a possible railroad quarrel in the
Northwest were influences repressive of
bull sentiment.
Tobacco was an important exception,
and on what at least seemed to be an
official announcement of the acquisition
of the Drummond Tobacco Company. 1t

been liberated upon a medical certificate
showing that he is irresponsible for his
actions.
The evening times., 1898-10-10

The opening of the week in the stock
market was weak and unsatisfactory.
The prices of nearly all stocks went off
continuously from the opening for the
first hour or more and at twelve there
was little indication that the remainder
of the day would be any better. Sugar
was very weak and probably had its ef-
feet on the remainder of the market.
London was not much OF an influence
as Americans were very little dealt in
but its trading what there was of it was
not encouraging.

There was savage article in the
Stockholder this morning on the pros
poets of the Sugar Trust, asserting that
the monopoly of the trust is over forever
and that the company will be obliged to
cut its dividends entirely If 1t wishes to
prevent being ruined entirely by the op-
position. This article even goes so far
as to state that the machinery of the
opposition refneries is as modern and
perhaps even better than that of the
trust. The assertions mace by the Stock
holder are part of them true, and there
is no question that there is hard time
ahead for the trust. Ii is also undoubt-
edly true that the stock of the trust will
drop in price even further Here, howev-
er, the sugar pessimists would better
pause. There is nothing in the history of
the trust to warrant the idea that this
time it will fail. 1t has never failed be-
fore. Some time it will fail but most
careful people believe that it has still
several prosperous years ahead of it.
Sugar stock went today to the lowest
point since last spring.
