NEWCOMERS AT THE zoo.
Nineteen Specimens Captured by the
Cuuhoaf Wilmington

Superintendent Baker of the National
Geological Park. was much gratified this
morning to receive a very valuable addi-
tion TO the magnificent collection of ami
mails at the garden. which came from Com
mander Todd of the United States gunboat
Wilmington. which recently terminated its
remarkable voyage of discovery of over
1000 miles up the Amazon River. There
are nineteen specimens in the collection,
a harpy eagle, tapir. peccary, FIVE monkeys,
two tecties. ocelot. curassow, two COATS,
three agontis. kirkazon, and a parakeet.
The animals were captured by the crew
of the Wilmington acting under instruc-
tions from the Navy Department. In ac
cordance with general order emily is
sued by Secretary Long, the officers OF
United States vessels are instructed TO
collect as many specimens of animals ami
birds as is practical at various ports OF
foreign countries, for the Washington
Zoo. Those sent by Commander Told con-
stitute the first large collection rSsu ting
from this order. The animals were sent
to New York on the United States ship
Cearense, of the Red Cross Line. They
are all in fine condition, although the
peccary and ocelot apparently have not
fully recovered from the effects of their
recent seasickness.
When the. collection arrived at the Park
this morning. preparations for its accom-
mediation were Immediately Quartered in
their respective places. The most valua
Bile specimens of the collection are the
harpy eagle and the tapir. The eagle IS
a magnificent bird standing nearly two
feet high, with an intelligent and hand
some face and breast of Immediately
white feathers. Its back is the color of
blue steel and the wings are almost black.
The papir is only about half grown and
its appearance bellies its amiable dispo-
sition. Like all tapiroids, 1t loves the wa
ter and was consequently placed in the
tank, until recently the abode Of the rhi-
noceros. The fearful peccary, a hog-like
animal, terror to the travellers in South
America, is located outside of the building.
The five monkeys were placed in a cage
with others of their race and for an hour
or more had a terrible time until they be-
came acquainted The other animals are
distributed through the grounds and will
no doubt receive considerable attention.
from the crowd that visits the park every
Sunday.

STOCKS IN HEsITATING MOOD.
Many Shares Inclined TO Recede
After Opening Advances.

New York. May 19.-The stock market
opened fairly active and with the majority
of the list quoted at slight advances from
yesterdays final prices. Almost from the
start, however. heavy selling orders ap-
peared on the market, particularly in the
local traction shares under which there
were general recessions. The weakness
in the local traction shares was plainly
owing to the uncertainty in regard to the
form in which the Ford franchise bill wi
finally be enacted.
The dealings in this quarter were heav-
lest in Brooklyn Rapid Transit. which af-
ter advancing one point, declined rapidly
nearly two points. Sugar Refining also
receded rapidly from a higher opening
The other industrial stocks were only
moderately active and moved with the
general market.
The granger shares were the features
of the railway list and were reather heavy
on reports of crop damage, and the Pa
cifc shares were similarly unfavorably
affected. London houses were sellers of
stocks in the early dealings. though the
early cables showed fractional advances in
American stocks. Sterling exchange was
notably firm.

The character of the buying OF the Flow
er stocks is at all times better than that
of selling. When the Flower people for
a few moments al any time withdraw from
the market the room traders sell the stocks
and force small reactions. 1t is not be-
lieved, however that any of these stocks
will be allowed to decline very far, and
it is the best opinion that they will see
higher prices before the end of the month.

stocks. Declines of point or more were
recorded in these securities. Later there
| was a rally that recovered all the loss made
| and then ano he. Cecline to about the opel-
| ing prices. The amount of stock that came
| out was not large. and there was apparent
| ly no great pressure on either side OF the
| market, which left traders in an uncertain
| frame of mind regarding the remainder of
the day. The general opinion was that
there would be recessions OF a point or
more before the close. but it was easy to
see that the bulls might triumph at any
| moment if they desired. The people who
believe that a higher range of prices is
| to be seen are most confident.
The great strength of wheat was perhaps
| as bearish factor in the situation as any
other. Within an hour after the opening
of the market the price had advanced a
| point and there was excellent buying by
| large houses at all times. The grangers
| were little affected in the first trading, hut
sentiment was bearish on this group for
this reason. On the other hand. for the
good reasons that have been enumerated
in this column, there are many who are
strong believers in higher prices for all
the grangers, but especially st. Paul.
With regard TO Atchison preferred, the
stock which has been the subject of the
heaviest of the bear attacks, coterie of
influential people is said to be making
plans to send the price upward steadily.
The operations of these gentlemen were
plainly seen yesterday and their support
was given the stock today. II is pointed
out that although the income of the road
from winter wheat will probably b, cut
into somewhat this business is in reality
only small fraction of the entire carry
ing trade of the road And in addition to
the gross earnings end of Atchison's prob
lem it is to be remembered that its oper-
ating expenses are to show a constant and
large decrease.
Mr.. Keene was said to have arrayed
himself on the bear side yesterday after
noon and again this morning. 1t is not
known how much his short account is but
careful people are of the opinion that he
will be willing to close ii today. II this
is the case he will cause a good rally in
the market. The grangers are among the
stocks that should profit by this.
1t is said also that this gentleman has
sold Sugar short heavily in a fight with
Mr.. Lawson. There may be a good ad-
vance in the latter stock before the end
of the week and there are many people
who would not be surprised at such turn
of events. Mr.. Lawson is said to be very
bullish regarding Sugar still and to be
predicting higher prices for ii. He made
a public statement to this effect day be-
fore yesterday. This, however, was some
time ago, as the stock market reckons
time, and since then there has been q
strong squirt in the stock.
