LAW ABOUT sPooKs.
Illegal to Shoot Them in England
Other Court Rulings.

Lawsuits about alleged ghosts, of
nature similar to the one which was
threshed out the other day before
Mr.. Justice Grantham, are far from
uncommon
Indeed, there is quite little library
Of books relating to the subject, all of
them full of musty, fusty presidents,
and each and every one of them bound
in that peculiar, underdone pie-crust
colored material known to booksellers
as law calf.
From these books one may learn
many things about ghosts, and the
proper way to treat them.
1t is, for instance, Illegal to belabor
a 'ghosz" after it has cried out that it
is not a ghost; while man who goes
gun-hunting after an alleged ghost,
and shoots and kills a human being
who is masquerading in spook attire,
is guilty of murder.
You may not summarily give up
possession of a house of which you
are tenant, simply because you be-
lieve it to be haunted, nor yet even if
it be currently alleged and reputed to
be haunted
But, on the other hand damages
have been recovered against land

tested dwelling to a tenant without
first informing him of its evil reputa-
ton.

NEW YORK LETTER.

New York. Aug. 10.-The stock mar
ket continued the downward trend
without the semblanee Of strength at
any time. New low records were es-
tablished for the entire list. Union
Pacific sold off from 131 to 1869
Reading from Of to 90: Copper from
7eh to "A and Shelters from 10l 10,
IS There was nothing particularly
bearish in the way Of news The sell
ing seemed to emanate from the same
source as during the past few days.
Standard OH interests seem determined
to bring about a panic whether 1t is
iustined or not. The general pros
perity throughout the country is not
reflected in the prices Of stocks upon
the stock exchange.
The photographers strike has helped
the bearish feeling along. Sentiment
on the street is so pronouncedly pes
slmistic that there is a mere possibility
that stocks are dragging close to the
bottom.
Bargain hunters are in the market.
With st. Paul selling at 122 and pay
ing Z per cent: Union Pacific at 127
and paying 10 per cent these stocks
certainly look like a splendid invest
ment.
Those that can afford It are buying
these high dividend paying stocks and
taking them out OF the market This
may not have any effect at present but
ultimately it will be felt when the
general situation clears up.
The bank statement was about as
disappointing documents as has been
issued in some time. It's effect on the
market caused a sharp decline during
the last half hour of the session.
The closing PRICES were almost the
lowest OF the day.
