A strange case of hold-up occurred on
a freight in charge of Conductor II. Rob-
erts, just before Montour was reached.
Two tramps were stealing a ride, when
one Of them held up the other, stripping
him of his clothes, which with few
dollars, made up all the man had. He
offered resistance, however, and his as
sociate shot him, the ball passing through
the jaw and out at the mouth. The
wound was not serious. The engineer Of
the train saw the flash of the revolver
when it was fred and when the train
stopped the injured tramp was found. He
gives his name as O'Connell. The would
be murderer and robber made his escape.

Boer Fighting Strength.
The fighting strength of the Beers is
very hard to estimate. 1t is safe, how
ever, to say that with the Transvaal and
Orange Free State side by side, and with
recruits from Natal and Cape Colony,
they can muster an army Of $4,000 men.
The white male population of the Trans
vaal is placed by the census of 1896 at
137,947. OF these about 10000 are
thought to be able-bodied. The white
male population of the Orange Free STATE
in 1890 was 1851, and the number of
burghers available for military service
1881.
The Beers proudly say that each one
of them is equal to seven Englishmen,
and the truth is that they are among the
most skillful marksmen in the world.
Even old Dom Paul can handle his rife
with sufficient skill to make him boastful
of the amount of lead he can put in Eng

issued Aug. IA all burghers Of both
classes are made liable for military SER

THE MARKET ELSEWHERE.

New York, Sept. 9.--Stocks showed
some evidence of firmness in the first
hour of the trading and up to the time
Of the publication of the bank state
ment. The movement in railroad stocks
was exceedingly narrow and the late
selling movement, though not very
pressing, was sufficient to bring the
general level of prices below those of
last night. Tennessee Coal COMPOUNDED
the bears again by soaring an addition
al points upwards and after reacting
31a recovered to within 2 points of the
top at the close. Colorado Fuel contin-
ued to show close sympathy and was
up over points before the late reac-
ton.
Added to this a continued large de-
mand for Manhattan and sympathetic
strength in Metropolitan and Brooklyn
Transit and good gains in International
paper, Union Bag and Paper and Lack
awanna, and the points of ex-
traordinary strength in the market are
about exhausted. The London exchange
was closed for a house-c cleaning and a
recent depression from that source was
lacking. Paris was looked TO for a re-
Election Of foreign sentiment and the
view there seemed to be a cheerful one
In view of the pessimistic forecasts
that had been heard all week regarding
the bank statement, the bears had a
feeling early in the session that q poor
statement had been more than discount
ed and were inclined to cover. But the
statement showed a loss in cash quite
81, 0000 900 in excess Of the most favor
able previous estimates. The COM
parison is the average total of cash for
six days with the average for the pre-
ceding six business days. AS the totals
have been on a descending scale, the
average UNDERSTANDS the actual total.
The contraction Of $6,016700 in loans
reduced the reserve requirement by
about $1,5O0,00O. Otherwise the surplus
above legal requirements would have
been below million. 1t is believed the
treasury would consent to leave on de-
post with New York banks the pay
ments for taxes next week. But this
would only partly relieve the drain as
the demand from the south will con-
tinue and no increase in cash resources
would result from the measure itself.
It would seem, therefore that the pro-
cess OF loan contraction Is to continue
for the immediate future.

tee and the New York Central.

The Boston Journal says: 1T is ru-
mored on the street today that the
New York Central offers a bonus of 1872
per share for an per cent lease of the
Boston & Albany, and the protective
committee asks 1852 per share, or its
equivalent with an per cent lease. A
member of the protective committee
says the asking price reported is not
far out of the way. IT is further ru-
mored that there may be a compromise
of $50 per share"
The Boston News Bureau, comment
ing on the above, says "The Boston &,
Albany officials are apparently out of
the entire matter, but the understand
ing is that if the lease falls through,
President Bliss will resign and the pro-
tective committee will name the next
management of the Albany. Further
rumor IS that they will make an alliance
of some kind with the New York. New

war of principle. 1t was not even a
national English war. 1t was not
war with which the English people had
any sympathy whatever. Therefore,
when Prince Louis Napoleon thrust
himself into this quarrel, he withdrew
himself from any just claim to general
sympathy. Regret for the sudden ex-
tinction of young life of promise was
but natural and that regret was freely
given; but the verdict of the public re-
NAMED unaltered. He had throw away
his life uselessly in a quarrel which
brought no honor, and for motive
which was not unselfish and was no-
