-Four Points in TraveIinn

In travelling It IS well 10 bear IN
mind that four important points are to
be considered and sought after. The
first of these is the greatest safety:
second, punctuality Of service; third.
comfort: fourth, speed of trains. To
the experienced traveller these points
are known as paramount features Of
travel over the Lake Shore & Mich
igan Southern Railway. This line is the
only double-track railway between the
cities OF Buffalo and Chicago.

GROWTH OF GERMANY.
Interesting Facts Cleaned from Re-
cent Census Taken In That Coun-
try-One City Shows Decrease.

United States Consul Mason, at Ber-
lin, has transmitted to the state depart
ment report embodying statement
of the census returns of Germany for
last year, as compared with the results
of the next previous census, taken in
1895, especially with regard TO the in
creased population of the cities of the
empire.
The statement sets forth the results
in the cases of the 80 principal cities
Of the empire, which each has more
than 100000 inhabitants. In only one
instance, that of Crefeld, was there a
decrease. Berlin naturally leads all the
German cities in the increased number
of its people, but its percentage of in
crease falls far below that of Nurem-
berg, Frankfort, Halle, Mannheim and
Posen, all of which owe their rapid
growth mainly to the development of
manufacturing industries within their
respective limits. The significant de-
crease in, the population of Crefeld is
attributable to the fact that it is city
of textile industries, whose products
were formerly exported in large guam
titles to the United States, but which
of late years have suffered from Amer
lean competition.

An old man, plainly dressed and

tered the tax office at New York city
the other day and humbly inquired OF
the imposing policeman at the door
where he could swear off his personal
taxes. The policeman eyed him sus.
piciously, then said, roughly: "Got

Eyes, SIR said the old man, in a
feeble voice.
"Lem'me see it," said the police
man, loftily.
"Oh. that's not necessary; not nee
essary at ALL" said the man, with sur
prising asperity.
well, sit down there, then" or
dered the policeman, indicating one of
a long line of chairs on which score
of anxious citizens were seated, await
ing their turn to swear off,, The old
gentleman took the chair Indicated.
The big policeman called President
Feitner's colored attendant. pointed
out the old man, and said, in stage
whisper, touching his head with his
index finger "Dotty."
While the two attendants were thus
engaged a tall, distinguished looking
man crossed the threshold with firm,
youthful step, and said. in com
manding tone: ~ would like to see
President Feitner."
"Yes, Mr.. Depew," said the impos-
ing policeman, obsequiously. T'll
send your name in Immediately"
AS he waited for the summons to
enter the presidents sanctum Senator
Depew saw the old gentleman whom
the policeman had under such careful
surveillance from the beginning. He
crossed to where the old man was sit
ting, and said, in a resounding voice:
why, how do you do, Mr.. Sage"
Russell Sage rose from his chair and
grasped the senator's outstretched
hand, The imposing policeman stag
gered as il he had received a solar
plexus blow.
Senator Depew yielded precedence
to Mr.. Sage, and the latter went first
to the slaughter. He had long and
animated talk with President Felt
ner, the nature OF which neither
would reveal.

MARKED RELAXATION
In Yesterdays Market in The Pressure to
Sell Stocks.
BY Associated Press.

by Associated ITeSS.
New York. Feb. 14.--There was a
marker relaxation today of the pres
sure to sell stocks which carried prices
downward yesterday and prices show
ed some recovery. Tine recovery did
not set in until the market was further
tested by the bears causing general de-
clines below yesterdays level. In con-
sequence, net changes to-day are as
rule small, but all mostly gains.
London advanced prices before the
opening here. but turned seller aftef
perceiving the drift of sentiment in New
York, and sold p few thousand Shares
on balance. There was no manifest
cause for the recovery. Bears who sold
yesterday covered their contracts in
consequence. This probably account
ed in part for the Show of fiImness IN
the market. In yesterdays decline
much was made of tine fact that stocks,
generally included in the interests of a
prominent financier who has borne a
most important part in recent con2loli-
dations, we're uniformly weak. AS
though in reply to these o0nsiderat, ons
the stocks thus involved were all sup
ported today, including Federal Steel,
Fries, Readings. Northern Pacific and
National Tube.
Al few other stocks were also sup
ported but none of the gains were full
ly held. The tone of the market was
rather heavy at The close and the vol
ume of dealings was very materially
curtailed

larly. United States New AS and 5's
