Prices Extremely variable hut the Nln-
jority Move Upward.
New York, Feb. 6.-Stock prices were
extremely variable to-day, but ended
with only fractional net changes, the
majority of which were upward. Many
conflicting reports reached the street as
| to the probabilities of confirmation or
rejection of the Spanish peace treaty
and these were instrumental in swaying
values. The first effect of the uprising
| at Manila was disturbing Stocks open
ed below London parity and there were
soon material declines in a number of
cases, Lake Erie and Western preferred
dipped 3A, Southern Pacific 3A, and
numerous other shares to the extent of
a point or more. Tobacco ran off 21a,
and later extended its decline to over
points on the announcement that rival
company had absorbed an important
Independent concern. London sold
about $1,000 shares Of stock. Although
dealings were much contracted COM
pared with recent averages, prices rose
above Saturdays closing. A number of
| high priced stocks, including New York
Central and Pennsylvania together with
the local traction and Gas stocks were
| conspicuous in the recovery, as were
Pacific Mails and Chicago Great West

to the lowest. Houses with Washing
ton connections were watched narrowly
with a view of getting some intimation
of their dealings as to the treaty's
chances, but no decided tendency one
way or the other could be detected. To-
ward midday the market again worked
upward with minor periods of depres-
sion, but gradually top figures We're
generally reached. The impression pre-
vailed in some quarters that the out
burst of the Fillpinos assured the
treatys ratification and on the theory
that the settlement of the uncertainty
would be beneficial to stocks. On the
other hand many desired to reduce their
commitments over night as a precau-
tionary measure and these contending
interests gave the market its appear
ance of great irregularty. The fever
ishness which prevailed in the treaty
dealing in a measure gradually disap-
peared as the day wore on and the mid
die and low-priced stocks sympathized
in the advancing tendency of gilt edge
stocks.
In the final dealings there were slight
recessions from the best prices.
The bond market showed marked
heaviness in the early transactions, but
later improved in spots, closing irregu-
lar. Total sales $4,0OO,0Oo.

OLD DIRECTORS RE ELECTED.
Annual Meeting of the New Haven
Water Company.

Water Company.
The annual meeting Of the stockhold-
ers of the New Haven Water company
was held yesterday morning at the Of
fees of the company. The old board of
directors was reelected, consisting of
the following gentlemen: A. l.. Cham
berlain, James English, John HI. Leeds,
Richard M. Everitt, James D. Dewell,
George d. Watrous, Eli Whitney e.
Hayes Trowbridge, Samuel E. Merwin.
The directors will meet on Tuesday to
elect officers.
. During the past year the company
has laid about fifteen and one-half miles
of new mains. At all of the water sup
plies the basins of the latter have
been cleaned up and the supplies great
ly improved.
The company has had all of it's wa
ter supplies analysed by DR.. Herbert
Smith the state chemist, and the va
rious specimens We're found to be I'M
usually excellent. The water company
is now acquiring rights along Farm
river and expects soon to have the entire
control of that water supply. TO con-
meet this water supply with Lake SAL
tonstall and bring the water into the
cit, it will be necessary to build canal
al ut 1000 feet in length, from the reser-
+, If which will be built, to the foot of
J ond Rock 1t will then be necessary to
build tunnel six feet in diameter and
about 1,700 feet in length, right through
the heart of the mountain 1t will be
necessary to drill through solid rock and
1t will be a long and laborious work.
The expense of the tunnel alone is es-
timated at about $4,000. 1t will be one
of the largest tunnels in this state.

Sweet sympathy.

A pretty story is told at Vienna about
Archduchess Valerie, youngest daugh-
ter of the emperor. 1t seems that when
travelling the other day from Linz to
Vienna she noticed on the platform at
Linz 14-year-old schoolboy crying bit
terly. She had the conductor bring the
lad to her compartment and, finding
that he was proceeding to Vienna to
attend his fathers funeral, she insisted
on his travelling with her, paying the
difference in his fare, as he had only a
third-class ticket. During the trip she
devoted herself to the task of comfort
ing him, telling the boy, among other
things, that she, too, had suffered much
from the loss Of fondly loved parent,
who had died suddenly in a foreign
land. 1t was only when the boy reached
Vienna and was leaving the train that
he discovered that the kind lady was
Archduchess Valerie.

THE SORROWFUL TREE.
1t blossoms Beautifully But Only at
Night-Sunlight Blights
Its Bloom.

There Is a tree in Persia to which
thename 1.-THE Sorrowful Tree"is given.
Perhaps because it blossoms only in
the evening.
When the first star appears in the
heavens the first bud of the sorrowful
tree opens, and as the shades of night
advance and the stars thickly stud the
sky, the buds continue gardually open
ing until the whole tree looks like one
immense white flower. On the ap-
proach of dawn, when the brilliancy of
the stars gradually fades in the light
of day, the sorrowful tree closes it's
flowers, and ere the sun is fully risen
not single blossom is visible. A sheet
of faded dust, as white as snow, COW
ers the ground around the foot of the
tree, which seems bhghted and with
cred during the day, while, however, it

GLAD TO GET A GLITCH"
Cesner Policemen WHO stand All
Day Receme Very
Tired. 4

About six o'clock every evening at
Washington street and Fifth avenue
one sees policemen, all Of unusually
large proportions, jumping off street
cars, trucks, express wagons and We
hicles of every sort, and he wonders
what's up. The big men in blue crowd,
regardless of any attempt at regular
ity, into the old Times building, says
the Chicago Chronicle
It's only the central detail men-the
men who guard the crossings in the
downtown business misunderstanding
home from work. They are picked for
their size, intelligence, of course, also
being taken into consideration. But
the men will average 200 pounds in
weight. They go to their posts at seven
O'Clock every morning, and, except for
a short relief for dinner, stand on their
crossings all day long. Two hundred
pounds resting on pair of feet for ten
hours at stretch wearies and tries the
feet fearfully, and when his work is
done the crossing man, while he could
continue to stand perhaps for hours
longer without suffering, finds walking
very painful.
So it is that he seeks any kind of an
old vehicle to get him back to the sta
ton for roll call. 1t is the hardest work
in the business, the policemen say,
standing on cobble crossing all day.

A TRICK CAMERA.
basket and Used to Photo
graph Notifications.

"a travelling photo salesman showed
me a very ingenious trick camera the
other day." said a local dealer to the
New Orleans Times-Democrat. 1t was
, box about six inches square, set in
side of what seemed to be an ordinary
wicker lunch basket. When desired,
the box could be pushed down through
the basket, so that its top was on q
level with the wicker bottom. The top
of the box was also covered with wick
er, and the basket would then appear to
be perfectly empty. The camera pro-
truding meanwhile from the under side.
An upward push would restore it to its
original position, and the lens worked
through a small hole near the end. The
continuance was evidently of foreign
manufacture, and the salesman told me
it had been made especially for an
agent who was sent to take pictures of
Notifications on the French frontier.
According to his story, which is a
little romantic, but which l have no
reason to doubt, the spy would saunter
out, dressed as tourist, and carrying
the lunch basket on his arm. When
an officer came along he would push
down the box and show him that the
basket was perfectly empty. 1t never
occurred to the guards to turn the
thing upside down or it would have
been promptly confiscated. The pres
ent owner carries it around as curio,
and it is certainly the oldest little ma
chine I ever laid eyes on As far as [
know, it is the only camera in the
world that is mounted on a disappear
Ing carriage"
