STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS.

Principally on the reassuring although uncon-
hrned report OF the willingness Of the Bank Of
France 10 release between S1OOoO.OO0 and SIS
Oo0OO0 gold. with the object Of relieving the
Bank OF England from the strain occasioned by
the heavy Withdrawals Of the metal for ex-
portation 10 the United States. the tone OF the
local stock market yesterday afternoon changed
from weakness TO strength. and prices advanced
sharply, the close showing such substantial net
gains as S1s points in Union Pacific 2ss in South

days close. IN response TO a lower range OF
prices for American stocks from London. where
measures were being taken which made Il ap-
parent that the situation created by the urgent
demand from the United States for gold was
regarded by London fnanciers as serious There
was also some uneasiness over the alleged pur-
pose OF English institutions 10 discriminate
against American stocks. but not much atten-
ton was paid 70 this ruHOr. The Bank Of Eng
land is expected 10 advance its minimum dis
count rate to-day from o. TO per cent Early
rumors in London. however. were that the rate
was 10 be jumped to Az per cent. and these re-
ports naturally tended 10 depress that market:
hut the prospect Of relief from the Bank of

The New York market had relapsed into dull
ness after the initial weakness but the news
from Paris. although unofficial had a prompt
and stimulating effect. signifying as Il did, a
continuance OF the gold import movement and
me further Strengthening OF the cash reserves
OF the New York banks. London bought back
some Of the stocks which # had sold in the first
hour considerable covering Of shorts occurred
and a general buying movement developed The
maximum call money rate was ga per cent the
lowest figure for several days, and time money
showed an easing tendency. Further engage

station last night and it was reported
then that he was induIging heavily in in
taxicants.
Tilghmau's head was the only part of
his body struck and it was not mashed,
but bore only mark such as might be
inflicted by bludgeon. Railway men
who viewed the body were of the opinion
that Tiighman met with foul play and
that his assailant. had placed his body
across the tracks to conceal the crime.
The mans clothing did not show eyi-
dence Of being torn or rumple1 as would
have been tile case had he been struck
by train. The authorities have been
notified and will begi n an investigation.

DON'T BOX EARS

Parents WHO are in the habit OF boxing
their children's ears may realize the dam
ger to the children there is in this mode
of punishment by reading the following
which is the assertion OF one OF New
York's leading specialists. He says:
Gone OF tile mostserious things that can
result from boxing the ear is to burst the
drum and thus make the child deaf for
life on one side. | have known two or
three little ones who lost their hearing in
this way, vi hose parents did not know that
they were deaf on one side for years, be-
cause the other ear was so keen that
every sound was heard AS they grew
older the defect became apparent and
when the cause OF it was sought the dis
covery of burst ear drum, evidently
the result of blow received years before,
Mortified the relatives.
Continued striking on the ears, partic-
ularly when the soft, thin bone is
touched, will in time injure the brain
and undoubtedly make the child's mind
weak.
Many a little one who was born with a
normal amount of brain power has been
weakened IN this way through the bru-
tality or ignorance of parents, who would
hit their heads with hair brushes, rulers,
slippers. SSc.''
