STOCK MARKET OPERATIONS,

On rather large volume of trading the stock
market moved irreguarly during the short ses
sion yesterday, declining until near the close
ana then regaining part OF the lost ground with
maj net losses outnumbering net advances The
early feature was again Great Northern the
weakness Of which had depressing Influence
on the whole list The announcement of an issue
OF sooeOoOcO notes by roads of the Vanderbilt
system was bearish factor. and the unfayor-
aoie bank statement also caused renewed short
sehing and fresh liquidation. In the last few
minutes OF the session prices rallied on covering
OF shorts but the market closed weak and nm
certain in tone Great Northern had an extreroe
decline Of points. recovering half of this loss
at the close, which was points under Friday
Northern Pacific gained 21s points on the late
rally closing III points up at 1884, The news
Of a note issue for the Vanderbilt system had
been partly discounted. although the issue had
not been expected TO be as large as the fact
proved. and New York Central sold down only
1ss points from its best of the day, and closed
at net advance OF q per cent. The end of the
Issuing Of notes by big transportation companies
Is not yet In sight. Several other steam railway
companies viii in all probability within the next
few weeks make known their wants and arrange
to have them filled at price The next offering
OF the sort. there is ground for saying. will be
close at hand, the Interborough- Metropolitan
system having planned to sell this week an issue
OF about 100000 short-term notes.
No high hopes had been formed of really
good bank statement, so that expectations can
not be said TO have been disappointed. It had
been known that the banks were gaining cash
more slowly than IN the preceding week. and
the only hope OF an encouraging showing in the
statement had been based the possibility Of
material reduction IN loans rejecting the con-
siderable liquidation Of the week in the stock
market The increase In cash, s3,24s.4OO. was
almost exactly that which had been figured in
advance from the known movements Of money
for the week But loans also increased and 10
the unexpectedly large amount OF $22 900 900;
and as a result OF the increase Of S24,5OO 900 in
deposits and the relatively small gain in cash
the surplus reserve decreased 80, ,s97, 800 stand
ing now at sI5562. 800. this change comparing
with a decrease Of $934.725 in the corresponding
week Of 1906 and with an increase Of s3.245.750
in 1905. The increase in the loan item was
probably due TO further transfer of loans from
abroad and 10 preparations for the New York
Central note transaction.

From Bangkok, in Siam, we hear from
the Rev. John Darlington, who works
the whole of this remote empire. 1t
must have been awkward when one Of
his buffaloes, hitched to cart con-
tanning Testaments in Siamese and
Laos, suddenly bolted and scattered
boxes and beds along the swampy
track for half mile.
Or, again, we find Mr.. Darlington
using tiger skins for the binding of
his Bibles, and holding weird auction
sales of his books under the tamarind
trees of Samoi island, 800 miles down
the west coast of the Gulf of Siam,
says writer in the New York Times.
[ can but briefly touch on the adven-
lures of William Laughton in his boat
on the Yang-tse, which he rented for
$50 taels and then loaded up with Bi-
bles, only to run on some rocks and
become a total wreck Indeed were
It not for the skill of the native track
ers and towers" in handling the BAN
hoo pumps it is possible that Mr.
Laughton would have lost his Bibles,
if not his life.
In many instances the book is
thought to possess magical attributes.
Among the Mbundu people, in Central
Africa, an old man bought d Bible and
said: Would it be safe for me to keep
this book in the house, or must | build
a place for 1t out-doors?'
Nor are dark tragedies unknown
amohg the Bible pioneers. The Rev
H. j. Johnson once dropped down the
great Yang-tsc in a houseboat laden
with Testaments. He was accompani
ed only by a trusted Chinese colpor,
teur. For nineteen years nothing more
was heard of either. Then the tragic
story came to light Johnson and his
man had landed at an inland town to
sell their Bibles. But the first night
fire broke out and burned down
many houses with much loss of life
Next day native mischief-makers at
tributed the disaster to the evil in,
luence of the Foreign Devil" And
before the white man and his assist
ant could get back to their houseboat
they were set upon by a mob and mur
dered with every circumstance of cru
city.
Turning to bleak Siberia. we find
an unobtrusive hero and his wife sail
ing on an open raft with half ton Of
Scriptures down the great Lena river
