YEsTERDAY,s STOCK MARKET
stn Largely in Professional Hands
 Closing Shaky.


 New York, April 1.-The stock mar ket was saill largely in professional hands to-day, but operations were con ducted in a more aggressive manner and were extended to greater lengths. Constant shifting of position still indl- cated a very uncertain frame of mlnd on the part of the professionals. Mucn of the days session was given up to what looked like testing operations without success in developing the pre- vailing tendency. The trading sank into extreme dullness at times under the discouraging influence of these fall- ures and then yielded decidedly
 Strength was most in evidence in the early part of the day. Part of this was in response to rise in London markets as a result of the reduction in the official discount rate of the Bank of England from 5 to 4 1-2 per cent. The early rise was furthered by the bull party in the trading by manipulatlve tactics The substantial effect of the English bank rate reduction was, in | fact, small The previous course ot | the money market gave ample warning of the action and gave opportunity for discounting it in the securities market The weekly statement of the Bank Of England fully explained the action oi 1 thu governors, the bullion holdings showing a large gain and the loans a Considerable fraction. The private rate of discount continued to decline also as it did in Paris, the Bank of France showing a substantial contraction oi loans, although the increase in golc holdings was but small.
 Notwithstanding this general anC continued yielding of money rates al over the world, stocks begin to retlec misgivings over it's sufficiency to mee the large waiting demands. Signs of movement of currency back to the in terior also give warning of the larg requirements of the continued activt! in trade. The alternative to this de mand is a slackening in the demand of trade. Tho London copper marke showed a disposition to break again and this served to reawaken some un easiness over the market position Q that metal, notwithstanding the asser tions of the great producers as to tn soundness of the position.

SENTENCED FOR RoBBING GAS
 METER


 Elmer S. Anderson was sentenced to thirty days and fined $10 and costs for robbing a prepaid gas meter at Harry Brusie's cafe, 969 State street, by Judge Tyner in the city court yesterday morning.
 Anderson is a colored man who was employed as a waiter at the cafe. It was shown in evidence that Anderson broke the lock off the gas meter and than put on one of his own. A few days ago the gas inspector went there and he could not open the lock. The next day he paid a second visit and found the lock unfastened. There was no money in the meter, however.
 The matter was reported to the po- lice and Detective McAvoy was placed on the case He arrested Anderson, who at first declared that he knew nothing about the theft, but who later, according to the police, confessed and stated that he had thrown the key away. It was his habit to open the meter at various times and take out the money. It is said that $22 was taken in all

He at once appealed to the common pleas court, and the case was returned there last July. It has been continued from term to term since for various reasons. At the trial In Madison Judge Zacher, of Branford, was employed as special prosecutor In the case, and when the settlement of the trouble was so long delayed the in- aerested citizens of the town went to him and demanded that he take it up

FOR ATTACK ON FOREMAN.

FOR ATTACK ON FOREMAN.
 An exciting fight at the American Rivet eompany's shop on Wooster street, in which gang of Italian fac tory hands attacked their foreman, Vincenzo J. Humphrey, with steel clubs and did him up, following an all legged insult offered by him to one of the shop girls Wednesday afternoon, was aired in the police court yester- day
 Mary Torello the black-haired Ttal- ian belle whom 1t Is claimed the fore man insulted, was before the court with brother, Vincenzo Torello, and two shopmates, Leronzo Altiera and Errico Altiera, and the evidence tended to show that the girl had led the men in the attack on Humphrey.
 The latter was knocked out for a time and showed long cut across his forehead in court.
 The trial was not finished yesterday but was put over until tomorrow morning.
 The row caused something of riot at the shop, and 1t was necessary for a squad of police from the Dixwel avenue station to come and preserve order

Notes of Mines.

j. Fl. Lewis in the Galena Tribune:
The Kennedy mining company has
been operating for years and is per-
haps the most consistent producer in
the entire district. The dividend re-
turns have been very large. The
mine is controlled By Mineral Point
people. The company holds lease
On 120 acres of land. The property
is fully equipped with mill and roast
er and runs continuously. -Four cars
of ore are shipped each week. About
90 men are employed. Thos. Aide, a
mining man of 80 years experience,
has been superintendent of this mine
ever since it began to be operated.
The Mineral Point Zinc company
has purchased most of the available
mining lands from Highland to
Platteville and now it is said by an
employe of the company that this
corporation will turn its attention to
the Benton field. The Mineral Point
being a branch of the New Jersey the
presence in the field of such men as
Palmer and Heckcher carries much
significance with it. Tuesday was
spent in the southern part Of the field
and a quick run was made after lunch
con to the big carbonate fields at
Highland. The Mineral Point com
pany is operating two large plants at
Mineral Point, an oxide and acid
works. The lower grade ores are be-
ing bought heavily for the latter and
the residum is shipped on to Depue,

PLANTING Abandoned Lanes.

Passing through the country we often
notice long lanes leading from the milk
yard back into the pastures. Many of
such appear to have been in use for
many years, until from the excess of
plant food present there is scarcely
any grass visible. This practice could
be improved by making one perma-
nent center fence, wire preferable, and
put up a movable one to one side,
causing a lane of liberal width which
should correspond with size Of dairy.
After three years move this fence over
to the other side of the center one.
Plant the abandoned lane two years in
succession to corn fodder. Follow the
next year with grain and stock to
clover; keep on making these three
year rotations, and with but very
small expense what now is a constant
waste will be turned to cash.-S. Cor
