RAILROAD jacks HAMMocK.
A Tramp Who Has Travelled Free Over
100000 Miles.
New York Journal.

New York Journal.
Travelling under box car in a hammock
IS q method OF progression few men have
1ndulged in. The ordinary tramp is TOO lazy
and too unimaginative TO construct such
a conveyance or TO use it If made for him.
but Harry ID. Cooper. who is known under
the alias of Railroad Jack the Hammock
Rider" has travelled for ten years in this
manner, has visited many of the States and
covered over 10O9O0 miles.
He has acquired his alias from rudely
constructed hammock, which he invented to
assist him in Journeying over the land with
out buying tickets every time he wants to
execute change OF base. He calls the
the tenth of the series. The trap is made
OF heavy canvas strung on a couple of
strong iron bars, fitted with hooks at the
ends. These hooks are fastened to the sun
porting bars of box car or sleeper and
the traveller is secure inside the hammock.
Cooper says that it was ten years ago
while stranded in Denver Col, that he de-
vised the hammock which he has successful
ly used ever since. His first attempt was
on the night of April 10. 1883, when he
took his hammock two miles east of Den
Yer and patiently waited at the junction
OF the Kansas Pacific and Cheyenne divi-
sion Of the Union Pacific Railway for an
east-bound train. In order not TO arouse
the suspicion of those whom he might
meet he wore pair Of blue overalls. a
appearance of ordinary car inspector
The scheme proved so successful that since
that time he has travelled through thirty
States and skinned over 10000 miles of
railroads without knowing what it is to pay
car fare.
As a protection from the dust. gravel and
wind the hammock has a cover which
Cooper can draw over him. He rides more
comfortably on Pullman car than box
car, for the reason that a Pullman car Is
wider and allows him to lie in his ham
mock at full length. Under a box car he
Is compelled TO ride IN sitting posture
Railroad men seldom interfere with him
as he causes no trouble. Besides this his
appearance is that Of a typical rairoader
and as ne travels almost exclusively after
night he is seldom detected.
Contrary 10 the general run Of the knights
OF the box car. Railroad Jack has good
habits and aspires TO be something better
He neither smokes nor cheWs and leads
this life, no doubt. for the same phosoph-
ical reasons which prompted Diogenes to
select a washtub as a place OF residence
IL Is his present intention to gather data
and in short time write a book of his
life. He Is now thirty-four years old. and

is the real question at the moment: and
while the temper of the market is too in
tangible to prOphesy upon, i do not regard
It as by any means impossible that the ex-
isting bull movement may prove per-
sistent enough to carry values many points
higher, especially in securities which have
received least attention, before any i'm
pOrtant reaction appears.
wall street takes little notice of the ap-
parent doubt whether the present Senate
Will ratify the treaty of peace; for the suffi-
cient reason that the new Senate would cer-
tafnly do what the Democratic element in
the outgoing house may allow partisan feel
ing to prevent them from doing. 1t is quite
certain that an extra session of Congress
will be called Immediately after March to
ratify the treaty if the present one fails in
the discharge of its duty.
THE prospects of the home money market
are virtually conclusive in favor of con-
tinuance of easy rates of interest. The Eu-
ropean markets are working towards
smoother condition; which is indicated in
the Bank of Englands reduction of it's dis
count rate on Thursday from 4 to 312 per
cent
THE official monthly statement of imports
and exports shows that, IN December the
exports of merchandise exceeded the i'm
ports by $50, ,426, 900, which is by far the larg-
est monthly creditor balance in the history
of our foreign trade. We have thus another
large addition to the balances due to Amer
cia resting in Europe and subject to our
call. What may be the present total OF
those funds it is not easy to say; but 1t
seems quite possible that they may mater
tally exceed current estimates. The official
returns show that the exports, including
specie, for the calendar year 1898, exceed
the imports (also inclusive of specie) by
$5O4. .21S,0OO. 1t is hardly possible to conceive
that the uncertain items, outside TINS pal
ance-such as the net movement in securi-
ties interest payments. travellers credits edit:
ocean freights, etc.-can exceed halt tnaI; I;
from which may be inferred the magnitude
of the true balance due us from other coun-
tries The total imports and exports Of the
