The announcement that the Norfolk and
Western has secured the Cincinnati Belt
Line caused much comment yesterday.
The deal thus contaminated is not by any
means the least of the railway deals of
the present season of big deals. This line
encircles Cincinnati and controls almost
all the terminal facilities of the city. By
its acquisition the Norfolk and Western
gets direct trackage over the Big Four to
Chicago. a thing that the road has wanted
for long time. Both of these securities.
Norfolk and Big Four, were strong. the
latter having big squirt early in the day
| to 81 and closing at 10 ga, with a net
gain of more than points.

American Tobacco was one of the fea-
lures of the list yesterday, making high
price of III 1-2 and closing at lie. with
an advance of a point or so. The reason
for this strength and for the buoyancy of
the Continental securities also was the
announcement that the deal has been
completed for the acquisition by the trust

manufactures.

The sharp bulge in the New York Trac-
ton securities, led by Manhattan, last
Saturday, was not in evidence yesterday.
the entire group sagging nearly all day.
Manhattan from high price OF 126 on
Saturday went down to 11s IA at the
close yesterday, that being also the low
est price for the day. Brooklyn Rapid
Transit and Metropolitan closed at 81 IL
and 1s7 1-2, respectively, both prices be-
ing the lowest for the day. There is still
talk of deal of some kind in this
group, but many believe that the bulge
of last week was simply a manipulative
squeeze on the shorts.

A TRANSLATED BILL
Thrown Into the Hopper of the New
 Mexico Legislature.

Public busin =ss in New Mexico is primarily c6ndu-ted in the spanish language. That is. officials and states men think in that mel.ifiuous language Their thoughts when it is necessary to crys,allize them: ar reduced to Span ish. and if it is further necessary that they should be of record. they are con Verted into English.
 The Republican lately received d copy of an act introduced into the rhirty- fourth legislature of hat territory last February by Hon. Jose Pablo Martinez IL was read the first and second times by title. ordered translated and printed and referred to the committee on In- dian affairs. It was An Act with Ref erence to Robbery and Thieves and for Other Purposes.
 The act. after it had been translated into English. was a follows;
 Be it enacted by the Legislative as sernbly of the Territory or New Mex ico:
 IS ction L That any person O. per sons who shall steal from any thing or things belonging to them that the said person or persons which agreed to coincideG to take satisfaction for any criminal offense. shall lose double the value of sum thereof or q thing thas have besn agreed upon ar received. but nobody shall be hindered to take its goods or property from the thief or thieves. Provided. that he shall pros ecu,e such thi or thieves. Provided. further that the person IT persons which from whom were stold and the said theft was found immediately shall prosecute said thief or thieves. and the person or persons who shall fai,sd n prosecuting the said thief or thieves shall be guilty of the same criminal of fense and shall be punished by the law in the section 1iS1 of the laws of 1S91.
 Sect; n ?. This act snaIl take fcrce and effect from and after it's passag age-
 The translation looks very much as if it had been hurriedly doEe by the H n Senor Martinez himself. without the adveniitious aid of an English grammar .o,r any person familiar with rEe English language
 Ons. however. can gather a notion that its general purpose was to maka the lot of thieves harder.
 The last clause. though, attempts an impossibiity. the naking of a man whose property has been stolen. wi. h. out his knowledge and consent, a thisf. There is no record showing that this bill was made 9 law.

amounting to $45. A number of cards which evidently had rested in the wal let for some time. were in one of the compartments. Th5se were not .-N- amined.
 In vest pocket was a silver shel. lead pencil, and three cigars were found. They were not the black per fectos which the president likes. but a short size and were recognized as some that had been given to him a. Niagara Falls that day On two of them he had chewed much as General Grant used a cigar. The other he had not touched.
 The presidents watch was an open faced gold case American made time keeper. Attached to it was a gold chain which the president always wore. No lct-rs. telegrams or papers were found.
 There was not on the presidents per son a single clew to his identity unless it was to be found in his wallet.

IN THE PRESIDENTS POCKETS.
What He Carried At the Time He Was
 Shot

Buffalo, N Y.-When the presidents clothes were removed at the exposition hospital they were wrapped up careful ly and sent to the Milburn home by one of the secret service men. The presl- dents pockets held much the same con tents as those Of an ordinary citizen. In his right hand trousers pocket was some currency. Si,S0 in all Jingling with this coin was a small silver mug get. well worn. as if the president had carried it for pocket piece for a long time. Three small pen-knives. pearl handled. were in the pockets of his trousers. E,vid sntly they were gifts which he priZed and he was in the ha bit of carrying all three. They were simple knives. with no silver ornamen- tation. inscriptions initials or other visible personal history. Another batter q coin. presumably a pocket piece. was in the left hand pocket
 The presidents wallet is d well-worn black leather one. about four inches by five and a half inches in size. It was not marked with his name or other identi- fcation. In his wallet were some bills
