BUYING N RAILWAYS
Makes for Great Strength in
the Stock Market.
MANIPULATION IN ORDER
With an Eye to the Expected
Outside Buyer

New York, March N.-There were i'm
pressive elements of strength In the stock
market today, due to the large and con-
fident buying Of some of the railroad
stocks. The market was not very
broad. the demand being restricted to
comparatively few stocks, and there was
not much evidence Of what is called in
Wall Street public interest in the stock
market The buying was undoubtedly
based. however, on the expectation that
the public will shortly return TO the
stock market. 1t is contrary to the Gus
tom of this outside public to come In
and buy stocks when prices are at an
invitingiy low level. They wait until
rise is in full progress. and apparently
the present movement has been inaugu-
rated with a view to affording an object
lesson in increasing values. The price
movement today was actively manipulat-
ed and was carefully nursed. 1t is based
primarily upon the generally prosperous
conditions of business, the high level or
railroad earnings which is being main
tanned and the symptoms of an early re-
taxation in the money market. While
the movement thus far - confined TO the
taking ON OF stocks by wealthy profess
sional operators or by insiders in the va
rious properties, il IS to be remembered
that such a movement is a necessary
forerunner of the broader and more COM
prehensive advance which comes with an
active speculation. The reversion OF the
Third Avenue railroad TO the strong
hands hands Of the Metropolitan affords
not a little relief to all circles in Wall
Street, as not only removing disturb
ing influence from the stock market, Gut
from business circles generally. The
shorts in Third Avenue spent another
bad day today, the price running up 70
I liz and fiuctuating between that and 100.
The other local stocks were active, but
| showed notable tendency towards re-
/ lapse late in the day. The convincing
! evidence that Third Avenue stock is cor
nered leads to diNgent efforts on the
part Of the bear operators caught short
( TO effect a private settlement The pos
! sibtlity of such a result makes the pro-
| fessionaI traders timld and cautious
about operating in the stock after the
/ recent violent advance. There was dis

WHAT KOSHER" MEAT IS.
There have been many inquiries of late
regarding Kosher" meat Following Is
a. description of the method of its prepa-
ration:
Kosher meat is prepared in special
way for the Hebrew trade. It is very
particular work and subject to the strict
est examination. The word Kosher" is
Hebrew word, meaning clean, in con-
tradistinction to "trepha," which means
unclean. It is the name given to the
meat that Is killed in the manner au-
thoTized by Moses.
The schochat, or killer, must be cool,
wary, experienced, well-grounded IN reli-
gfon, Of good moral character, and he
must have passed satisfactory exam
ination before the chief rabbi and have
received license The "schechita," or
killing, is so conducted as to insure the
complete effusion of blood, for the Israel
ties are forbidden to eat blood. The OK
or other quadruped Is bound fast, and the
windpipe is cut through with long and
very sharp-edged knife. No unnecessary
pressure on the throat is allowed. The
upper end Of the knife is first put to the
throat. It is then pushed over to the
lower part of the blade, and the knife
is drawn back and then forward. No
1toppage must occur during the opera
ton.
Now comes the ''bedigah," or examina-
ton Of the instrument and the victim. If
there be the slightest nick in the edge
of the knife, the meat cannot be eaten,
as the cut would not be clean. The nick
would cause a thrill to pass through the
beast, and consequently repel the blood
again through the veins. Lungs, liver,
heart-the whole animal, in short, is
| carefully looked over Any organic lesion,
any Inflammation or fracture, condemns
| the whole as "trepha" (unclean.) If the
| examination be satisfactory, a tax at
! tached to each half Of a beef is proof
its gastronomic value. This tag gives the
name of the killer and the date of the
killing.

MUSIC AND DRAM
A POOR RELATION.

The advisability to be on hand early
Friday at the opening of the advance sale
Of seats for the extraordinary engage
rnent of Sol Smith Russell's great play,
"a Poor Relation" is earnestly recon-
mended to the lovers Of clean, whole
some amusements. Frank ]. Keenan,. the
clever young actor that Manager Fred
G. Berger has engaged to play Mr.. Rus
sells part of Noah Vale, gives an i'm
personation ofthe leading character in
Mr.. Kidder's beautiful comedy that is re-
markable for its sincerity, its unstudied
pathos and enforced humor. "A Poor
Relatios'' is not an ambitious work; 1t
does not treat Of social problem or
abound in sensation, but is sweet and
wholesome as clover blossom. Mr..
Keenan, is supported by no ordinary COM
panv but in fact by Mr.. Russell's own
organization Of players, that would now
be in New York but for Masager Fred
G. Burgers decision to give those towns
that had never seen "A Poor Relation
a chance to do so. After Mr.. RusselFs
enforced retirement from the stage, ana
