United Railways Fours Weaker,
but Preferred Stock in Demand
and Higher-Transits Quiet.

The dealings yesterday on the Stock Eek
change were not by any means large. but
some record breaking prices were made II
certain bank and trust stocks, and with but
few exceptions a good strong market was
experienced. The notable feature Of the
market was the bull movement In Missis-
sippi Valley Trust stock. which made a pne-
nomenal advance of 50 points during the
session, the closing bid being SS4. with
none offered. At one time during the SEES
SION this stock was offered at $50. 90. then
at $SS2 and finally at SS3. but this last
offer was withdrawn like the previous ones

other strong trust stock. which has made
an excellent record the last week as regards
prices and which made a new record yes
ferday. was Commonwealth. This stock
was bid 3 points up to SeS. at which 1t was
offered at one time, and closed at that bid
and no sellers. Lincoln was 2 points higher

for the strength shown. Conspicuous among
them was Third National. which was IN
demand by several parties. and sold l point
higher. to the extent Of 60 shares. at

Some days ago a swarm of bees en-
tered a roadside letter-boX near Null
lingar, i'm Ireland. A number of let
tiers were in the box, and the post
master-general offered a reward of
two shillings (fifty cents) to any per-
son dislodging the bees. This tempt
ing offer resulted in the sending of
singing letter from the owner of the
swarm, who threatened, if the bees
were injured, to take legal proceed
ings against Lord Londonderry, as his
offer to remove the intruders was
rendered fruitless by the refusal of
the postotnce authorities to allow the
door of the letter-box to be opened.
