LONDON MARKETPR
WEEKS DEVELOPMENTS HAVE
NOT BEEN VERY IMPRESSIVE.
Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star
LONDON, January s.-Last weeks devel-
opments on the stock exchange were not
very impressive. There was slight burst
of activity directly after the turn of the
year. but it was short lived, and when 1t
was over the markets settled into dizziness.
which has been maintained throughout the
week The most that can be said in COM
pairing the situation today with that of a
week ago Is that there is more flrmness in
nearly all the departments, accompanied
by moderate gains in quoted prices.
Monetary considerations are for the mo-
ment controlling stock market movements.
The political influences are slightly more
favorable than week ago.
The continental bourSeS are showing more
condolences in the ability OF the Russian
government to restore order throughout the
empire and their attitude has had a good
effect here, notably in the department Of
foreign government securities. the prices Of
which have considerably improved.
Moroccan Influences.
A somewhat more hopeful view of the
Moroccan question has also prevailed on the
continent as well as here, and 1t has been
reflected in various directions. There con-
tinues to be certain amount Of anxiety
in reference to both these matters. but
neither has been thought OF SO much en- the
stock exchange this week as has the money
outlook.
The probable course Of the money market
In the next few weeks cannot be predicted
with any degree OF confidence Indications
of ease are about balanced by other indicap-
lions that point toward stringency. The
situation may clear up IN the coming week.
In the home and colonial government mar.
ket prices improved fracbionai1y this week.
British rails have been rather depressed
during most Of the week, though the clos
ing prices are rather batter than those last
week.
Americans have been affected by New
York conditions. but q good deal Of support
has been given to q number Of stocks, and
the last quotations show various substantial
advances.
Mines have been dull and fiat.

If cotton spinners should decide soon to
take the south's cotton at the prices for
which the planters are holding out, there
would result a very free flow to this center
of cash and credits now tied up in the move
ment to hold out cotton. Moreover, exports
of cotton would create foreign exchange
with rapidity which would avert the dan
ger of O. gold export movement, which now
threatens the New Yorw money market at
a time when it should be harvesting cash.

tors please fix it? They would.
On the work table at the hospital are
not only arms and legs galore, but all
kinds of wigs, paints. threads and
cords. miniature teeth. tiny curling
irons, pastes and CLUES, hooks and scis-
sors of many shapes and sizes and even
an appalling assortment of glass eyes
of various colors and sizes. The eyes,
which open and shut with n weight,
are placed in position through the open
ing III the head. \ few stitches serve
to mend loose arm or leg, while hooks
ana cords are usually required to fix Il
fractured joint. The paint brush
touches up a faded complexion, as is
the case even with flesh and blood
grown folks.
There are almond eyed Chinese dolls
with faded yellow complications and
long cues. Indians with feathers
missing from their war bonnets, picka-
ninny dolls with moth eaten wool and
angel faced cherubs with battered
appearance that makes them look as if
they had been in a Bowery scrimmage
But surgery does miracles. and this
particular branch of it performs even
greater wonders than that in the sure
enough hospitals. 1t makes bodily
members grow on where none had been
before. and before its marvellous pow
ers even decapitatiOn is not fatal.

Doll Hospital
By J. a. EDGERTON

Copyright. 1896, by ]. 4. Edgerton-1
~HE world is full of hospitals. not
q only for disease racked and
wrecked human beings, but for
dogs, horses, birds and-dolls. And why
not? Dolls have ailments as well as
other folks-in fact, rather more so.
They lose their hair, their eyes. their
teeth, their hands, their legs. their saw
dust and even their complexiOns and
heads Small boys delight in Gripping
and manning them, rockers smash
them, big folks step on them. This
il a hard world for dolls.
So the doll hospitals flourish. Most
large cities support one. Doll surgery
has become a science. The poor things
do not have to take medicine. fortu-
natey, except paint applied externally
and sawdust internally. so that phar-
macopOeia is not required in doll doc
toring The operations are all surgical.
But for all that the doll doctors are en-
titled to place NJ. ID. after their names,
NJ. D. standing for member of dolls.
1t is quite a grewsome sight in the

This volume written by G. P Griims-
ley Assistant State Geologist, treats
of group of valuable resources of the
State which are but little developed
and represent most valuable assets of
a State rich in the possession Of min
eral wealth. namely. the Clays,
Limestone and Clements. AT the pres
ent time these industries are all at
tracing marked attention in his coun-
try and an active search is being male
for good deposits of these products
favorably located It is therefore an
opportune time for the issuance OF
such report in West Virginia

This volume discusses the origin
of clay. its chemical properties and
the mineral impurities found in it
with their effects on the resulting
product The chemical componentS as
revealed by a chemical analysis Of a
West Virginia clay are given with a
discussion of their range, source, and
effects. The variety of these elements
will be a matter OF interest and per
