The lioness, Dollie, belonging
to the Sells and Gray circus,
which is compelled to stay in
Algeries owing to several legal
claims against it, escaped from
her cage Thursday night, says
the New Orleans Item.
1t is not known exactly how
the lioness got out, but neverthe-
less she did, and for q few MIN
utes Patterson street was in an
uproar. Nobody. however, was
injured.
Dolhe had just been fed, so
she was not hungry, or some one
might have been attacked, IS
Dollie had good opportunity for
doing 90. As it was, delighted
at being freed from her confine-
ment, she pranced and bounded
along the street like . little
child Just out of school.
Everybody along Patterson
street closed and locked their
doors, and no attempt was made
to interrupt the ioness in her
gambols until her keeper was in
formed of her escape.
When she saw him she sped
away, determined not to be capt
ured. William HUFF, q cattle
dealer of Algeries, was riding
out Of vallette street to Patter-
son, whe he saw the lioness and
succeeded in lassoing her.
Dollie, to the amusement of
several spectators, made no re-
sistance. The keeper took charge
of her. The cage was brought
out to Patterson street, and at
the command DolIic walked into
her prison like a disobedicnt
boy who had repented.

Yesterday evening, in a mo-
ment of abstractedness, he viola
ted the bicycle ordinance BY
riding on the sidewalk opposite
the Catholic church, and police
officer Chas. Newman happening
along, brought the Judge TO

officer Newman's position and
gracefully submitted. Judge
Newman is expected to deliver n
very fine lecture on the subject
of officers of the law violating
the law.

THE DAYS OPERATIONS IN STOCKS.

Early trading in stocks was Influenced by ac-
tivity in the London market and by fair home
demand for American shares by foreign houses.
Buying in London based on the proposal
from Holland regarding a settlement OF the Boer
war, but the enthusiasm created by this devel-
opment did not continue throughout the day, al
though speculative sentiment cheerful both
,n London and New-York. The decline in prices
fn the local market after first hour advances
was due entirely to realizing sales and 10 mod
crate bear pressure, and not to adverse news de-
velopments money market factors The days
news was all in favor of higher prices. Rail-
road earnings were heavy, reports from the win
ter wheat regions We're encouraging. copper
trade conditions were reported promising.
and money market rates were easy under the in
huence Of an increasing pressure to lend by the
leading banking institutions. These factors
doubtless we're responsible for heavier commits
sion house business.
The advance OF Tuesday naturally induced a
certain amount of selling in yesterdays trad
Ing especially among people who had been led
TO believe that stocks should be sold on all rail-
lies in the current market. Declines, however.
were as a rule small while in number OF
shares last figures showed slight improvement

not an effective influence in the speculation in

were sold reports from the anthracite coal

reason that even under present conditions the
