New York, Dec. 7.-To-day's violent
slnmD in the stock market came upon
.ha sanguine speculative element like a
bolt from the blue sky.
The crumbling of prices led to the
usual industrious efforts to assign a
cause in some new developments in
affairs that might be an index of a de-
cline in the prosperous conditions of
business and industry. There was no
euch news forthcoming.
There was a rise in the call loan
rate in the day to the highest of the
season. but this seemed to be as much
nrices. 1t was not learned that there
had been any calling of loans or re-
striction of credits to precipitate the
break, but the expectation of further
gold engagements for export was con-
fmed. and there were remittances
through the sub treasury of a million
dollars to San Francisco and of $780,
600 to New Orleans.
Much attention was paid to the fly
Ing rumors of the attitude towards
the market assumed by important
financial powers.
RumOrs of Raids.
The sharp losses which were suffered
gave spirit to some of the assertions
that combinations had been formed to
raid the market and that some of the
advertised attacks on special proper
ties of the last few days really rep
resented a deeply laid plot which had
the backing of great capitalists. The
easy manner in which Analgamated
Copper succumbed to successive at
tacks was the ground for these asser-
tons.

GOOD
PORCH
CLIMBER

The North Commercial Street
neighborhood was entertained the
other evening in a rather unique style
spring door lock, an elderly lady
and a man who happened to be pass
ing were the central figures, while
the stage settings consisted of a
porch post.
The elderly woman went out of the
house and left the spring lock in a
ready-for-business style The wind
waiting always for just such an OPP
portunity, played the prank and the
door was locked fast and hard. All
other means of ingress were barri-
caded, according to the most approved
burglar-proof fashion and it looked
like a case of take to the jungles.
Just then the philanthropist hap
pened along and he volunteered to
assist her in again assuming charge
of the interior of her domicile, He
would pry open a window or go over
the transom. Efforts in both direc.
tions were made, but failed and at
last way was devised. Up the porch
rail was the only route not inspected,
and he resolved to climb. 1t was not
as easy to do as it looked, but after
several tryouts he reached the COW
eted goal and emerged through the
front door
Some one suggested that it would
be quite an attraction for the park
committe. providing a Dago and hand
organ could be secured and a creased
pole erected for the climbers bene-
fit.

PLAYER
Lost Three Hundred Bucks
and Sues the Win
nerS

An unusual complaint was filed in
department No. 1, today, title of the
case is Alfred Farrow, VS.. Joseph
Johnson and August Camel. The plain.
tiff in the case is endeavoring to re.
cover $500 and costs, or double the
amount which he claims to have lost
at game of poker played with John
son and Camel at Gervais during the
month of July. The complaint alleges
that Johnson and Camel conduct the
Log Cabin saloon in Gervais. That
they permit the game of poker to be
played for money and participate in
the profits of the same. That they
dealt and played cards and permitted
others to do so in their places. con.
trary to law Farrow claims to have
lost $3.50 in this way and now seeks
to recover louble the amount with
costs.
This is the first case of the kind in
Marion county courts in a long time,
and the outcome will be watched with
interest. Mr.. Bingham is attorney for
the plaintiff.
