TEXAS SHOULD HAVEA PAS
TEUR INSTITUTE.

A subject which should engage
the attention Of the next Legislature
is the establishment OF a Pasteur
institution this state. The growing
frequency of instances of persons
beng bitten by rabid animals and
dying Of hydrophobia, makes such
move az imperative duty ou the
part of the state. II is ouly short
time since a victim Of a mad dog
died at San Antonio with hydro
phobla. Last week young mau
from Bryan, who was bitten 10y a
pet dog, died ct the same fearful
disease At Atlanta, Georgia, where
he was taken to the Pasteur insti-
tute for treatment several weeks
after being bitten, having waited
too long before going. Other IN
stances of the same kind are fre-
quently heard Of, especially
amongst the poorer people living
in the plains Of Western Texas.
Several victims of rabid coyotes
have died recently in Matamoros,
Mexico, just across the Rio Graude,
Rabid coyotes are as dangerous as
rahid dogs, aud are more frequent
encountered in Western Texas
than mad dogs are. When mau
of wealth. or even in moderate cir
cumslauces, is bitten 10y n rabid
animal, he has hope OF escape, be-
cause he can 60 10 eight Chicago
New York, or Atlantato receive the
Pasteur treatment, but for the poor
man there is no hope. The diff
cultand expensive processes involv'
ed ia 'he Pasleur treatment make
il impossible for medical prae'
nlioners outsideof the so-cqlled in
stilules to apply IL. But the es'
adjustment of one Of these insti-
tutes ia the state at someaccesslblt
point wonld make it possible for
people in moderate circumstances
10 avail themselves Of the treat
ment, aud even the poorest might
be saved by charitable persons,
sending them to the institute.
II appears that such an establish
ment would be of comparatively
small cost 10 the state. IL could
be run In connection with the med
zeal department OF the University.
So far as THE HERALD has learned,
the idea is entirely feasible aud
practicable. Il is 20 be hoped that
the next legislature may be indcu-
ed to take mp the matter aud act
upon IL.

SPRING VACATIONS BEGIN

New York, March 1.-The stock market was very listless and unsteady, whlcn re. Btricted declining interest on the part oh the professional traders. Many or tnese have taken advantage of the dull DUST hess on the exchange to go away TUT spring vacation trips and the absence of many of the bankers and rallroao presidents who are generally cohcerhe" In large doings showed the general ac- uuiescence in the present state of things The small traders whose dealings make up the market devoted their attention to the less important stocks, which have occupied them for some time past with the exception of rise of PA in American Cotton oil, said to be due to faVoraple trade conditions, there was no movement of sufficient importance to chronicle Ihe bank statement showed smaller dechne In cash reserves than attributed 10 the working of the average system or com- putation by which the gold shipments on Thursday figure for only three days in the statement The loan item was also . relief in the modest proportion or US expansion, as a large increase hao been feared The room shorts therefore coV- rred on the publication
 The distinctive feature of the dealings In the stock market this week has been the prominence of the less prominent stocks which are not allied with the great railroad systems, and the indus trials of small capitalization which are only affected by individual causes anu are a barometer of general conditions
 Interest has shifted from one to an other of these during the week. usually some ostensible reason was advanced TOT the buying of the particular stocks aHecl- ed bu they were for the most part vague runors and there were often sudden re- lapses in prices when rumors talleu oi confirmation and the speculative pools re- Anonsible for the movement had taken their profits. The sum of these movements helped out the appearance of activity Tn the market for much of the time but they were in reality working under sympa- thetic influences.
 Much weight has been attached by spec ulators to the expected developments ol plans for further consultations as they may be affected by the Northern Securl- lies Company's sale. The proposed suit against this company. by the government necessarily brings into question not only It's own future but that of many other projects designed on the same lines. The settlements of the governments suit IS recognized to be a matter of menths ana perhaps no one supposes that the stocR market will lie stagnant all that time. There are factors of more immediate ap- plication which promise uncertainty in the speculative sentiment. The money out look is by no m cans clear and the resump- ton of gold exports on large scale is romplicating factor.

Murnhx & Co.'S Grain Letter.

Chicago, March 1.-Liverpooi wheat op- ened about Ac higher and closed un- changed to bd higher. Our market opened dull at about last nights close. Covering on the part of bulls and better news from fields and the Missouri state crop report, showing a large per cent of in crease in acreage, amounting to about 50 per cent over the state, had a depress- ing effect on the market. However, it cannot be called heavy market-rather a dull one, and is likely to respond read fly to any bull effort. Liverpool cables on spot corn closed from A to s4d higher, with favorable ocean rates, made our market open better and held firmly until near the close. when a sharp decline was experienced. caused by profit-taking and a small panic in oats Lighter receipt and better prices in the hog market again had a strengthening influence in this market but the trading was so light that the market eased off some. The market is in such a shape that it is most impossible to put out a line without advancing the market
