THE SWELLING TOAD.
Curious Points About This Oddly
Among Animals.

Among Animals.
The wonder of the genus batrachia
cad the greatcst natural history oddly
to be found along the Atlantic coast
Of the United States is the swelling
toad, n semiaquatic creature known to
naturnlists rs bufomachnlatus. It Is
occasionally met with from New York
city to Jacksonville, Fla. but Is most
common along the coasts Of Virginia,
Maryland and North Carolina. When
In its natural state the swell toad"
Is about the size Of large bullfrog,
but looks more like a fish than 1t does
like eithrr Il frog or toad. 1t Is
about slI inches In length and has the
curious faculty of being, able to swell
to the sizs Of u football, I'm which state
Its legs, tail and head are scarcely
visible
Irritation appears to be the chief
factor in causing these curious crea-
lures to inhale mir until they swell al
most to bursting. The bellies of both
the males and females are nearly pure
white aud are covered with spines
which give that portion Of their anato-
my the appearance Of we'll rip
ened jlmson bur. Persons who under
stand the swell toad" and know what
an irritable little rascal 1t is catch it
and rub the splnes ,on Its belly, when
1t swells up until 1t is utterly helpless.
Another curious point about the crea-
ture is that as long as it Is kept ON
its back 1t is unable to expel the air so
90 to reduce the swelling.

The Tension Between Great Brit
ion and France.
AFFECTS NEW YORK Market
Selling, Which Carried Prices Down.
wa'd Was Mostly For Foreign Ac-
count-Movement Was Moderate and
Z Well Observation-Disclosures Prices.
(hy Associated Press,

NEW YORK, May 8.-Measured by
the effects in the New York stock mar
ket the tension between Great Britain
and France over the preservation of
neutrality In the far East must be
acute. Measured by any other business
index, there does not seem to be seri-
GUS apprehension of any rupture be-
tween those two powers.
II Is true, that the selling of stocks
In New York which carried prices
downward was mostly for foreign ac-
cc'int, hut the volume OF 1t was not i'm
pressive and the reni effect on prices
must lie attributed in large part TO the
doubt felt towards the market by
operators of any considerable power or
influence.
Prices of stocks broke In decidedly
weak manner, a number of instances
showing lower quotations than ut the
extreme low level of last week. The
Pacliias, Southwesterns and Southerns
were mostly affected amongst the rail
roads AMI the iron and steel stocks
were conspicuous amongst the indus
trials. The selling, although moderate.
was very we'll distributed and no part
Of the list escaped the prevailing weak.
hess The result seems conclusive of
the failure Of the considerable reduc.
ton in I'rices which has already taken
place to attract any effective demand.
The market was marrow and obvious
ly largely in professional hands as was
indicated by the light volume of the
transactions, both on the decline and
on the rally. When the operations for
foreign account had been concluded for
the day, the supply of stocks proved
scanty for the needs of the shorts.
The Indifference OF the demand show
ed Itself ut the recovered level of
prices and they were but poorly held
so that the closing was barely steady.
Bonds were irregular. Total sales,
par value. $1.9SO.000. United States
bonds We're all unchanged on call
Total stocks 10000 shares. Closing
