THE MARKETS.
W oil street Review

New York, May H--There was a very
obvious disposition today in speculative
circles to leave the stock market alone,
pending the development of the next
move of the Spanish and American
squadrons. Outside interest in the MAJ
ket was small. The consequent losses in
the international stocks decided the tone
OF the market. The offerings for Lon
don account were well absorbed in spite
of the prevailing dullnoss and prices were
lifted above the London parity. The
strength of Sugar on the advance In the
prices of the product and the favorable
bank statement hardened prices in the
second hour and wrought n few net gains.
Fractional net losses were the rule at the
close. The sales of stocks today were
14S, 800 shares.

They Quoted Authorities.

They are telling a story in Washington,
says the Pittsburg Dispatch, about Sena-
tor Stewards quotations from eminent
authorities" during a recent discussion on
the subject of finance. AT the close of a
lengthy extract Senator Hoar inquired
from what book the senator from Nevada
had bene reading. 1T is an ANALYSIS of
the functions of money by William NJ
Stewart, United States SENATOR was the
reply.
This colloquy between the expounder of
THE Crime of 70" and the venerable
statesman from Beacon Hill was probably
conducted in a stage whisper, and thus
escaped official transcription in the Con-
gressional Record. Perhaps it was mod
eled by some facile correspondent upon
the properly authenticated story of the
law citation made by ex-Congressman
William Lawrence of Ohio in the United
States Supreme Court. During the Gar
field administration the eminent Judge
was sociiitor for the treasury depart
ment and his chief function was the de-
cision of mOoted points arising under the
customs laws. The judges rulings as to
whether violins are household furniture
and such tariff disputes were quite elab-
crate and bristled with quotations from
the entire realm of knowledge.
Naturally inclined to rely upon the con-
elusive wisdom of his own legal opinions,
he haQ UHem cOliated and bound in flVe
volumes of law sheep covers and labeled

Lawrence" emblaZoned where usually
the court reporters name designates the
series. Thus panOplied with legal lore
the judge one day confronted Chief Jus
tice Waite and his bench of associates TO
argue a case on appeal. In the course of
his remarks he laid down a principle as
law, which caused the chief justice TO
lean forward curiously.

Well" said Mrs. Bulterman and her
daughter. before he got off his coat says
the Chicago Times-Herald, what's the
news?''
Everything is going up growled Bull

the end of this"
And nothing from the Steenth Regi-

his wife, which was Indignantly repealed.
"Has not the bold Private Perkins kept
you informed?"
"She hasn't heard from Harry for three
days" said Mrs. Bulterman. 1T is so dis
tressing.'
Perfectly agonlzing," remarked Bull
terman, sitting down to his soup. Still,
you know pretty well what he is doing."
Yes said Grace, looking off into
space. Il can see him now. He is the
perfect picture of a soldier 1 have seen
him many times, with his patent feathers,

laugh. Now I can see him, Also

yes, indeed. He is eating dinner. In
a boiled potato and a piece of fat bacon.
In one hand he holds a hunk of bread, in
the other a battered tin cup containing
coffee"
''rhe poor boy would never eat in such a
fashion, or such coarse food" protested
Mrs Bulterman angrlly.
Then the poor boy win go hungry. But
let us suppose that he is engaged in a sol
diers duties. I see him standing guard
in a swamp. His trousers are 'frayed at
the bottom, he wears gray flannel shirt
he has not been shaved for a week, and if
il wasn't for his gun you would think that
he was one of the weary gentlemen who
appeal 10 the ladies' sympathy al the back

Grace.

at the ceiling. Il see him once more He
is now digging a ditch with other Harrys

his clothes are plastered with yellow mud,
he is smoking army tobacco in a short
black pipe, and wondering whether he
