The New York stock market was irregu-
lar most of the day, the result of the trad
ing showing gains of slight fractions in
most issues, but with several advances of
point or more in some securities which
occupied conspicuous positions in the days
trading, notably Tobacco, Brooklyn Rapid
Transit and the Northern Pacific shares
There was some covering of shorts early
and little more outside buying on the
Germany's attitude in the Philippines. Then
there was some anticipation that Santiago
might capitulate in time for the market
to be supported by the heavy July dis
bursements. Rumors of an early settle
ment of the transcontinental war were
again responsible for the strength in North
ern Pacific, which was moderately supplied
by London. The absorption recently by a
syndicate of Baltimore & Ohio holdings of
Western Union which removed the fear of
these large holdings being thrown on the
market was used as a lever in raising the
stock, but there was realizing on the adj
vance, causing the stock to sag off. The
decrease in st. Paul's weekly earnings the
first since October, accounts for the slug
Iransts maintenance of traffic gains, al
though now facing new competition, gave
strength to that stock. A movement
against shorts in Tobacco brought about a
sharp advance in that speciality Peoples
Gas showed only an unimportant fractional
decline. although under pressure nearly all
day Syndicate interests bought Balti-
which were thrown the mar
ket by small holders unprepared to pay the
assessments under the reorganization. The
stock broke badly at the outset. but sub
sequently recovered most of the loss
The bonds, on the other hand. showed
conspicuous strength throughout the day.
Bonds displayed little feature, but exhibited
a cessation of marked activity in some
lines which have recently posed as leaders.

Open. rates Of $12 first-class and $11 second
class, between Chicago and New York, will
go into effect within week unless the pres
idents of the trunk lines devise some plan
of patching up the demoralzed rate situa-
ton jim the meantime Two or three of the
stronger lines have decided to put in such
rates and will apply them both -east-bound
and west-bound. These roads are tired of
the present low rates between the North
west and the East and believe that the sur
est way to restore rates generally is to
make an open cut in the rates between Chi
cago and New York.

A HAUNTED RAILROAD CAR.

Every one has heard of haunted houses, but the railroad men know there are haunted cars as well. For in stance, on the l.. and N. there is a ca boose known as '19OS," which carries on in the most supernatural manner What do you say to 8 caboose that suddenly begins to shake and shiver like man with the ague, and this, too when it is standing alone on the track? My informant solemnly asserted, also, that "190S" is subject to attacks of hy- steria. It jumps up and down without the slightest provocation. He says it did the most remarkable thing, how ever, one day near Richmond It was standing on siding with all brakes set. All at once it started and ran up grade, over an embankment into a field.-Paris (Ky.) Reporter.

tain paused while and looked over the stern at the foaming track of the screw. We were light Tn the water
 Well" asked l, what happened next?"
 T don't know, sir. don't know. It is not every landsman who can steer q boat running before the trades with a following sea; perhaps she was popped, or he may have let her broach-to. Either way she would be pretty cer- tain to fill and sink, and I hope that was what happened. Sometimes at night, when l am on deck, I think of these two poor things in an open boat, with no food or water, and no prospects before them, even if they got safe to land-for, of course, he could never go back to Barbadoes He had his revolv- CT, you see. Next day gunboat came into Carlisle bay, and she was sent to look for the lost craft, but she never found her. So the few who knew the rights of the story agreed to hush it up, and most people thought the boat had been blown out of the harbor, and so swamped. After all, there was no one to blame; but it was a sad pity-a sad pity!"
 The short tropical twilight was changing rapidly to the darkness of night. The captain walked forward to see that the port and starboard lights were burning properly and I went be- low to try to get some sleep before reaching Castries. I saw no more of him till I said good-by as I stepped into the harbor masters boat in the warm, velvety blackness of the early morning. As I shook hands l asked him how he happened to know the story himself.
 T was the skipper of the bark, " | he said, shortly. T was on Pelican Is- l land"
 Half an hour later as I was fighting mosquitoes and trying vainly to get to sleep in chair in the odorous bar | room of the Castries hotel I remember ed several other questions that should have liked to ask him, but never saw him again. The little tramp 1 steamer was sunk while running the | blockade at Cuba with a cargo of arms and ammunition for the insurgents. 1 have always felt that the captain did not tell me quite the whole of that | story.-St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

my father" said MKotchwana, "and my brother was shot in the stomach, The 'amakiwa' were brave men; they were warriors"
 Asked how he obtained possession of the cape. M'Kotchwana said it was on a white soldier, who was killed before the first rush. He fell outside the ring of dead horses; they thought he was not dead and kept on shooting at his body. When the natives ran up, M'Kotchwana seized this cape off the white mans body.-The London Globe.
