AN UNKNOWN BOY
KILLED by TRAIN

Mrs George w. Troxler, of 1901 North
Twenty first Street. told Detective Ser
geants Bailey and Wiltshire yesterday a
story that is unique in the annals of
tragedy. She related to the detectives that
while she was visiting In Holiday, q
station on the Chesapeake and Ohio Rail-
road she witnessed the burial of an un-
known hoy who was found lying dead
by the railroad track. The back of the
boys head had been crushed, and 1t is
supposed that he was killed by train
early in the morning. The body was dis
covered by the conductor OF another train,
who telegraphed back from the next sta
ton and reported what he had seen.
An inquest was held the next day, but
nothing could be found to identify the
boy and he was buried In pine box
near the scene of the tragedy. No papers
were found on him, nor was there any
money In his possession. The little viz
lage had no place to keep the body and
1t had TO be buried.
Describing the boy, Mrs. TroSler said
he was more than good-looking. his face
was clear-cut and refined, his eyes We're
blue and he had masses OF curly hair.
He was we'll dressed. The clothing bore
the mark Of a Baltimore house. The
boy seemed to be about nineteen years
old. he was five and n half feet tall,
and weighed about 125 pounds. The
authorities here know nothing OF the
affair

CAME AS A SURPRISE

NEW YORK, January 1l.-Speculative
sentiment on the stock market to-day
received rude shock in the announce
ment made late yesterday that the PENN
sylvania Railroad had IN contemplation
the offer OF 200,000000 additional capital.
The volume of new securities thus indi-
Gated In itself Is sufficiently imposing to
have n marked effect on the supply OF
capital. For several reasons the effect OF
the news was aggravated. For one rea-
SON. II WAS a total surprise. None OF
the recent large Issues OF capital have
come unheralded by conjecture or accu-
rate forecast. The sale OF large holdings
OF Baltimore and Ohio, Norfolk and West
ern and Chesapeake and Ohio stock out
of the treasury have caused a belief that
the needs indicated last year had been
partly supplied. The revelation that. in
stead. the company felt the need OF power
to raise s2o0,0o0,o0o was accepted as an
acknowledgment that the actual necessi-
ties had been widely underestlmated. The
inference was suggested that similar mis-
calculations might be supposed in the
case OF other railroads, M the pressure
Of traffic on available facilities has been
by no means confined to the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad
The most vulnerable points in the days
market were stocks which might be as
sumed to be most affected by possible
need OF additional issues. Canadian Pa

ON LOCAL MARKETS
ANOTHER DULL DAY
ON CARY STREET

The warmer weather again interfered
somewhat with the wholesale produce
commission merchants and their business.
The receipts of country produce and poul-
try, as we'll as fruits. were rather light
on Cary Street yesterday The demand
was also liglApr than Is usual on Fridays.
The wholesale men were able to close out
most of the goods they had on hand
that were liable to perish. although in
order TO do so they had to shade prices
somewhat on some articles. However,
the shading was very light. not enough
to warrant any material reduction in the
retail prices that will obtain this morn
ing all over town.
Eggs remained firm ct former QUOTA
tions-that is to say. about twenty-one
cents for crate lots ID
