Outside News Good.

The news from beyond the limits Of
Wall Street was in the main favorable.
Weather and crop reports from all sec
tions, with the exception OF Kansas, were
more favorable than of late and railway
traffic managers agree that the outlook
for this years business is IN the main
satisfactory. At the moment the traffic of
ali of the Western trunk lines is increas
ing and railway returns for the last week
in April show as rule marked improve
men; upon those Of the corresponding
period OF last year.
The local furry in money has disposed
of the probabilities Of exports of specie,
at least for the present At the decline in
prices that took place this morning GER
tain of the larger operators and to an ex-
tent the customers of strictly commits
eion houses, evinced their confidence in
the situation by purchasing stocks on
fairly large scale. There certainly was
enough Of this buying to turn the market

Rally After Noon.

Tic early decline in some OF the leading
stocks were or 9 points. The situation
was further aggravated by uncertainty
regarding the labor situation in the
anthracite coal regions and fears of a
continuation Of the activity in money.
Before midday the urgent selling move
ment ran its course, and though money
ruled to 10 per cent. the entire list
began to rally. In many cases the recov-
cry was fully as sharp as the preceding
decline. The tone of the market, however,
was nervous, particularly as money con-
tinued to rule at abnormally high rates.
In the last hour belated borrowers and
concerns that do not enjoy the highest
credit bid the rate up to 20 per cent.
There was some recession from this rate
at the close and the last quotation was
per cent. The ruling rate for the day ap
pareatly was about u per cent.

A Late Disclaimer.

The attempt of the generally recognized
head of the syndicate to disclaim a. this
late day any responsibility for its opera
tions will certainly not meet with sue
cess in Wall Street. The time to have
made such a disclaimer was many months
ago, when his name began TO be freely
used in connection with the syndicate
transactions, and to have been effective
1t should have been followed by the de-
clination Of the various official positions
which the capitalist referred to has held
in practically every one Of the so-ealied
Webb Meyer corporations.
However, all this is history, which while
it may vitally concern those directly az
fected by the collapse, does not interest
Wall Street as much as the present and
immediate future. The casualties men
ticned naturSlls unsettled the market
during the first hour of business. There
was a good deal of forced liquidation. not
only for account CT the three unfortunate
brokerage concerns but also for innumer-
able small spectators. whose margins
had become light or exhausted.

He Is such little man-only three

1t was only a few days ago that his

rThe-prison bird is found IN Africa, anc
gets its name from the fact that, from
the time the nest is made until the little
birds are old enough to fly, the mother
bird Is really prisoner.
At nesting time the parent birds,
with their beaks, make a hole in the
bark OF a hollow tree, and then enter the
tree and build their nest. When the nest
is ready for occupancy the mother bird
settles herself in 1t, and her mate at
once makes her a prisoner by "waliina
up" the entrance to the nest, leaving an
opening just large enough for air and
food to psss through.
The great African explorer, David Liv-
ingstone, watched the actions OF these
birds and In writing Of them referred te
the nest as "prison", and the female
bird as ''slave'' She certainly is at
the mercy OF her mate for time, but
be treats her with unvarying kindness
and attention. AS soon as she is impris-
oned, he stations himself near the nest
and becomes her faithful guardian. He
brings her food at regular intervals, and
does not allow her TO want for anything.
Thus she gets on fall right, and really
seems to thrive on her secluded life.
Should, however, any accident befalI the
male bird SO that he would be kept from
looking after the needs OF the mot her
bird, she and her little ones would die
from want OF food. When nesting time
is over, the male bird destroys the bar
rier with his beak and sets his. family
free. Says Mr.. Livingstone: at Is In

the little prisoners greetuthe light. and

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-08-12

Mrs. Susan A. Payne. woman well
advanced in years, who lives in West
Scranton, yesterday applied to the
court for a limited divorce from her
husband, Alfred Payne. Cruel and
barbarous treatment Is alleged. She
is represented by Attorney John F.
Scragg.
The Paynes have number of grown
up children, but some few years ago
Mrs. Payne said her life with her hus-
band was intolerable and she secured
an absolute divorce from him. Later
they patched UP their differences, and
on May 81, 1901, they were REMARKED.
In her libel filed yesterday, Mrs.
Payne says that an account of the
cruel and barbarous treatment she re-
ceived, from her husband she was COM
PEELED to leave him on June IL.
Elizabeth T.. Cramer. Of Binghamton,
petitioned court to vacate the decree
in divorce secured here, July 49, 1902,
by her husband, A. w. Cramer. She
alleges 1t was secured to defraud her
out of her interest in a property in
Jefferson township. She says she knew
nothing of the proceedings until the
granting of the divorce was announced
in the newspapers. Her husband, she
ayers, falsely swore he did not know
where she was living, when all the
time he was we'll aware that she lived
in Binghamton

band had been guilty of unlawful rela-
tions with Margaret Case and other
women, to her unknown. She also al
leges cruel treatment on the part of
her husband. Mrs. Bruner is repre-
sented by Attorney John +. Scragg.
Willard o. Lathrop seeks a divorce
from Ethel Lathrop, to whom he was
married on Jan. 26, 1895, in Chicago.
