LIMITING THEIR TIME.
Engine Crews on Passenger Must Rest
After Having Made 40 Days.

An order has just been received at
this point to the effect that hereafter
passenger engine crews will not be per-
mitted to make more than 40 days in
a month. Heretofore the engine crews
have made about AZ days a month,
when they have made every trip. The
men, however are entirely satisfied
with this arrangement, as it simply
gives the extra men a little more show.
When the new cutoff lines west of here
are all in the service it will reduce the
mileage sufficient so that should a man
make every trip on his run he would
still be within the limit. 1t is expected
that the new Medicine Bow
cutoff will be ready for use by next
Sunday and it will at once be put into
regular service.

THE ~ICONOCLAST.
Miners and Supplies Leave for the
Camp in Hallack Canon.

Two miners, Messrs. Crouch and Fay
lor, left today with a wagon load Of
supplies for the Iconoclast mines in the
Hallack canon district. The men will
be added to the force at the mine and
the development work prosecuted with
new vigor. An expert who was in the
city this week in the interest Of eastern
capitalists paid a visit to the mine and
was very much pleased with what he
sew and has pronounced 1t an excel
lent proposition. The shaft is now
down go feet and a drift OF 20 feet has
also been run. Several veins Of copper
bearing ore have been encountered and
judging from the incline these veins
should soon merge into one large ore
body. The owners Of the mine are
much encouraged over recent develop
ments and have prepared to push the
work with renewed vigor.

LAST SAD RITES.
Remains of Miss Leonora OFT Consign-
ed to Mother Earth.

The remains of Miss Leonora OFT,
who died in Denver Monday night, ar
rived in Laramie on No. 8 this after
noon, accompanied by the stricken par
ents, and the funeral was held 2:30
from the family residence on Third
street. A large number of friends of
the family and of deceased turned out
to pay a last mark Of respect to one
whom they had learned to regard with
such a kindly feeling. The deep feeling
of sorry which was everywhere mani
fest showed very plainly that one had
departed who had endeared herself to
all in a lasting amer
The funeral services were conducted
by the Rev. Schmidt Of Denver and
were very impressive. The floral Of
ferings were many and very beauti-
full, a list Of which were received too
late for publication today.
The pail bearers were Messrs. Fred
Prick, Dave F'arr. Charles Erne, George
Trabing, August Berner and william
Quirk.
The cause of death is believed to have
been stomach trouble which had grown
worse until it affected the heart and
and after fourteen hours of suffering
resulted fatally. Miss OFT had suffered
with this trouble for a long while but
it was lever considered hat 1t would
result seriously. Last Sunday after
noon while out walking with a friend
in Denver she was taken suddenly sick
and was taken to her room, but it was
not at first thought the attack would be
anything serious, until she continued
to grow worse, when two physicians
were summoned and labored with her
all night. Her parents were telegraph
ed for and before the message had
reached them the trouble had affected
her heart and she was soon beyond the
reach of all earthly pain or sorrow.
During her affiction the members Of
the Smith-Brooks firm, for whom she
vas working, and the members Of the
Denver typographical union, OF which
she was a member, did all in their pow
er to assist her, for which her parents
are duly apprecative as well as for the
~kindnesses shown by friends in this
city.
MIR. and Mrs. OFT and family have the
sincere sympathy Of the entire COM
munity in their hour of deep distress.

the movement of prices. Engagements of gold for export to Paris, which amounted to a little over $2,SO0, 900, proved slightly larger than the prelim- mary estimates.
 The action of the Bank of England iii advancing it's paying price for American eagles 1-2 penny, to T6 shillings pence, carried the intimation that London might follow the example of Paris and offer special inducements to attract gold from New York But the measure taken is not sufficient to accomplish ae- cording to the opinions for publication of foreign exchange experts The local money market also showed a slightly hardening tendency, especially for time loans which showed the possibility of an automatic check to the gold export movement in case of any increased need for money here All the trunk lines, the Pacifcs, the Atchisons, Missouri Pa cific and Louisville were special suffer- CTS from the liquidation. The flrmness of the steel stocks was doubtless due to the large liquidation already affected In them and theoutstanding short interest. This condition made them available for manipulation for a rise to help sustain the market.
 Liduidation was in evidence in the bond market as well as in the stock market and high grade bonds were af- fected along with the speculative issues. Total sales, par value, $1,9l0000.

- THE STOCK M.IHKEi.
Further Liquidation but Prices Rally
 Toward the End.

Eownil me EnN.
 New York, May 9.-There was further large liquidatons of stocks in the mar ket to-day and prices were at one time from 1 to 2 Is points below last night for large number of the active rail- road stocks. Before the close of the market the losses were fully retrieved in many stocks and in not few of those which had been most acutely af- fected by the selling, small net gains were established. The late recovery was materially assisted by a buoyant rise in Sugar to a level IA points above last night and by rather posi- tive strength in the principal metal stocks The appearance thus given was that of the completion of a spasm of liquidation and the subsequent covering of belated outstanding short contracts and a buying of stocks by careful ob- servers who had stood by watching for the low point of the market to get in. How well this appearance is justified by the actual conditions can only be demonstrated by future events. That 
 manipulation in the market all day was clear from many indications, Evident 1y the process of liquidation was large- ly concentrated in a few hands and it was conducted by concerted under standing and with a dilgent nursing of opportunities. On any cCnsidera ble de- cline the pressure of the selling prompt ly relaxed and supporting orders were executed which over and over again checked the decline and drove the bears to cover their short contracts The ef- forts, of the bears to cover their short contracts were met by aggressive bid- ding up of prices in the interest of sev- eral of the most prominent stocks.
 But every time prices recovered to near last nights close the volume of fell off and eventually ceased.
 From the renewed vantage ground of the reco yery the flood of liquidation was them renewed. The volume of deal- ings on the recoveries was palpably much less than that on the decline, and the aggressive bidding up of prices showed that the object was rather to establish a higher level of prices than to secure stocks on the most advan- tageous terms That a turning point must ultimately be reached after such covery ensue make the professional bears very cautious in maintaining ag- gressive opposition to any rising ten dency in the market. None of the news of the day had any apparent bearing on

STREET CAR OF THE FUTURE

The announcement that a line of au- tomobiles is to go into service in com petition with the street railways, natu- rally gives rise to much speculation as to the effect of this form of local tran sit service on the street railway busi- ness. There are those bold enough to predict that the car designed to run on rails laid in the streets will in time give way entirely to self-propelled vehicles that require no other street foundation than the ordinary pavement. If this should prove to be the case, the street railway problem will be much simpl- fled. It will only be necessary for the authorities to provide first class pave ments throughout the city, when all who irving passengers can do so. Thus cost and quality Nof service could be left to regulation by competition, which now is out of the question, because but a sin gle corporation can be permitted to lay tracks and to operate cars in any given street
 No one can say to-day what will be the best local transportation system a generation hence, or even a decade hence Changes come about with great rapidity, all of which tends to show the folly of attempts on the part of those now in control of affairs to tie the hands of succeeding generations by long-term grants for particular systems of trans portation.-Chicago Record.

MICROBES IN THE ARCTIC RE
 CIONS

GIONS.
 Recent explorers in both the arctic and antarctic regions have brought sack interesting information concerning bac- terial life in the frigid zones. It has long been known that travellers in the arctic territory suffer very little from excessive changes of temperature, and are entirely free from colds and coughs, which are so frequently observed in the winter in our own latitude. Nordenski- old is authority for the statement that Sptzbergen in the summer time is the healthiest portion of the earth Levin made a number of cultures of the air in Spatzbergen and in King Charlesland. Samples of air were taken on the sur face of the glacier, on the coast, on the top of a cliff, as we'll as on board ship In each instance about fifty gallons of air were filtered indicating an elapsed time during the experiment of four or five hours. In only one instance were bacilli found. In that case the air was taken from the deck of the vessel while it was in the harbor. and as only three colonies of bacteria developed, it is pos sible that grain of dust from the ship
 
 hand, all samples of water, whether taken from the surface Of the sea or at a great depth, or from a glacier, or ob- tained by melting snow or ice, were found to contain bacteria, although in very small numbers. At the surface of the sea Levin found one germ for each Il c.c (three drachms) of water-a quantity of germ life which is absolute ly insignificant. The game amount of water taken from the river Seine has been found to contain more than two million bacteria. A curious fact was noticed in that the water taken from the ocean at great depth invariably con tained more bacteria than water from the surface, and this in spite of the fact that deep water in the Arctic ocean is usually below the freezing point.-Lon- don Health

Don't Want 1t.

Perhaps it is not in accordance
with the suggestions of superior
wisdom to be afraid of an epidemic
of smallpox, or to take extraordinary
precautions to guard against its at
tack so far as its menace to life is
under consideration. The disease is
by no means the fatal malady it was
once thought to be. 1t was once
considered to be the worst form OF
pestilence, loathsome disease to be
dreaded and Stunned as one would
escape from death itself. Whether
its former virulence is subdued in
its natural characteristics, the disease
"run out" or its modified violence
due rather to more intelligent medi-
cal treatment, it is certainly much
less dangerous than it was. Some
who have had the disease consider
it in the nature of benefit, health
giver, rather than a menace to pro-
longed physical endurance; say that
run of smallpox eliminates from
the system humors threatning to the
health and renders the person inn
mune not only to a subsequent at
tack of this but proof against certain
other diseases. In individual expe-
rience there may be things worse to
be dreaded than smallpox, but there
is another aspect of this question of
an epidemic of smallpox, question
of wider significance, and at the
same time involving the business
prospects of the community. When
town invites an epidemic of small
pox it invites business stagnation,
and carelessness, neglect to take
such precautionary measures as wis
dom would dictate in the situation,
is equivalent to an invitation. An
epidemic of smallpox in town is
equivalent to a command for the
business men to "shut up shops" for
schools to close; for churches, lodges
and all other societies to refrain
from holding meetings; the town is
Stunned by the country people
whose trade is diverted to other pla-
ces. If smallpox, even under the
modern pseudonym of "buckwheat
itch," or of its more polite designa-
ton, "pancake rash," doesn't hurt
the carcas of the individual infected,
it kills the town in business way.
Consequently it will "pay" to keep
this disease out of the town if posi-
sible, and to be prepared in any case
to deal advisedly with it should it
make its appearance in the city. In
the meantime observe all measures
of precaution. The disease is alarm
ingly prevalent all over the country
and we shall be especially fortunate
if we escape an invasion.
