Dealings Decline successively to Pint
 Near stagnation.
 New York, April 22.-No incident in the days news to-day proved an incen- tive to operators in sticks, and the vol ume of dealings declined excessively to point near stagnation. Neither was it clear that any positive discour- agement to speculation was offered. The trading public was, however, in- different and almost idle. The advance ing tendency of Union Pacific proved q sustaining influence on the whole of the general list. against the contrary infiu- ence of the rather marked depression in United States Steel preferred The selling of the latter was attributed to Pittsburg account and had influence owing to the common assumption that selling from that source is likely to come from sources well informed in the steel trade. However, nothing was dis closed of any specific developments i'll the trade to prompt the selling. Con- fiicting reports of the terms of the pro- posed Clarion Steel purchase caused an impression that the transaction is still open.
 The local fractions advanced in an IT, regular manner. Bids for Commercial Cable were advanced II points before bringing out an offer and movement in Mackay companies on the curb ae- conpanied this rise with rumors of an affiliation with telephone interests. The decline in United States Rubber pre- ferred was on realinz on yesterdays rise, explained by the declaration of a dividend after yesterdays market closed.
 Weather conditions were more favor able both for the opening of belated spring business and for the crops and the weakness in the wheat market gave emphasis to this condition. Several million dollars were reported loaned on call at 1 per cent. and the demand for time loans was practically stagnailt. Some corporations are reported to be still borrowing at rates higher than the market, but no important notes issues have been reported during the week. The extent of the weeks loan expan- sion is, therefore, in doubt. But the forecast of the weeks currency move ment shows a further enormous access sion of cash by the banks, the estimates of the weeks movement to this center running as high as $12,Oo0,O00, including the express movement with the. interior and the sub-treasury operations in which the gold exported is comprehend ed. Sterling exchange was easier, but this was plausibly supposed to be on account of bills sold against proposed further gold exports. The stagnation of stocks became almost complete late in the day.
 Bonds were neglected and about steady The total sales, par value, az gregated $1,S05, 900.
 United States bonds were unchanged on call.

them. The period of incubation aver ages twenty-two days; and it is a fact that the male bird squats patiently upon the nest, day after day, until all are matched, and then he looks after the babies till they are able to take care of themselves. During rainy weather the faithful father never leaves the eggs fer a moment, and has been known to stick to them a week or more without feed ing. When the weather is fine he strays away an hour or two toward evening. to stretch his long legs and get something to eat. If a fox or other animal steals or breaks an egg during his absence he knows it the instant he returns, and then his rage knows no bounds; he will dash the remaining eggs to pieces and dance around the debris like a lunatic. After the matching period the females lay their eggs promiscuously about the plains. The natives call these r'hatch- es." and the women and children spend a good deal of time hunting them. They keep fresh for half year Qresh enough for Patagonian), and one egg, being equal to eight or ten hens eggs, is considered the fair quota for one per

PRETTY FAST TIME.

J. H. Smith of S7 Ward street pur- chased horse in New Britain about two weeks ago and drove the animal from there to this city. The distance is thirty miles and the trip was made in three hours, the horse being in good condition at the end of the trip. Mir. Smith left New Britain at 3:15 in the afternoon and arrived here at 6:15. Horsemen hereabouts must look to their laurels, as the above facts would in- dicate that the new horse is a flyer.
