palm into his eyes, and then took in
the situation. He reached out, felt
of the collins nearest him, and then
slowly looked about the room. All
the coffins were closed, except the
one he was in. He pinched himself,
to make sure that even he was there.
He reflected for fully minute, and
then drew one leg out of the coffin,
braced himself, and, with a detera
mined scowl said.
"Zish looks like-=hic- cmeterYw
With another careful look around
he said:,
'Zish is cemetry; an -hic@Al'm

After a determined effort to get
his other leg out, and failing, he
thought once more; and finally his
sluggish, befuddled brain seemed to
determine his status, for he ejacu-
lated:
"Bet you zish is resurrection-hic
morn; an I'm first man here.

The stock Market.


New York, Jan. 31.-The average re-
cession in stock values to-day was frac-
tional. There was no pronounced press
ure to sell, as was shown by the dim
inished volume of business. There were
transactions in about three-quarters of
million shares, which formerly would
have been considered large days bust
ness but, which is the smallest amount
traded in in some time for full day s
session. London continued a moderate
seller on balance and the market show
ed alternate spells of strength and
weakness.
| There was considerable selling for
Chicago accounts. The traders were
free sellers at the opening and prices
ran off fractlonally except for declines
of a point and over in Reading first pre-
ferred, New York Central and Tennes-

peared in various directions and there
was a number of recoveries from / to 2

tack, which was particularly directed
against Sugar, caused that stock to drop
points from the highest prices, which
it had attained on a continuance Of the
talk of some arrangements with the
Glucose Sugar Refining company. New
York Air Brake took a dive Of about
points. There was activity and strength
among high-priced investment stocks,
including New York, New Haven and
Hartford which touched 204, Great

dation rumors. In regard to the
strength Of Great Northern stocks there
was gossip that there might be an
other "melon" to be cut by the COM
pany perhaps in the form of some dis
tributing to the stockholders. The time
for such action was clothed in much

MILLER MAY BE EXTRADITED.
Skipped His Bond but Is Wanted on
Other Charges.

Other Charges.
Assistant City Attorney Webb stated
last night that the bonds of James Brit
tain Miller, the divinity student charg-
ed with theft of books and burglary,
had been called and would be collected
to the full amount, $1,000. The bonds
men are w. J. Atwater and Charles E..
Sargent an instructor In Hillhouse high
school 1t is thought that both bonds
men are fully secured. Mr.. Webb also
said last night that Miller would prob
ably be rearrested If he could be found
in this state or elsewhere, and it is
probable that if he is located in Michi-
gan, where he is supposed to have gone,
or in some other place outside the Con-
necticut jurisdiction, extradition papers
will be issued for him.
Considerable regret is now expressed
by the prosecuting officials that the
bonds were not placed higher in his
case. OF the numerous charges placed
AGAINST him, the least serious, if con-
viction were secured upon it,would mean
thirty days in Jail. While on the most
serious of the charges, that of burglary
for taking watch, he might be bound
over and sentenced to twenty years in
state prison.
The postoffice authorities are also de-
sirous of prosecuting Miller on the
charge of fraudulent use of the mails.
Inspector Lewis came to New Haven
yesterday, it is thought, with the pur-
pose of arresting him and was surprised
to lind that he had skipped. large
nj ,aber of books found in Miller's rooms
!; the detectives are now stored in the
commissioners rooms at police head
quarters. In all there is about 5000
worth of books and of these only about
$500 worth has been positively identi-
fed.
The E. P. Judd company, booksellers,
from whom Miller is alleged to have
stolen a quantity of books, has brought
a civil suit against him for damages
in not having the books in their possess
sion to sell, and it is set forth that the
books are not now saleable. The books
belonging to Miller and the stolen books
which have been only partially identi-
fed have been attached in the case.
