Now we tackled-not without fear-Ln- known meats and vegetables cooked in sugar, fresh shrimps, mushrooms fro Mongolia, young bamboo sprouts, pi geons' eggs and a hundred different foreign tasting messes. Then clean plates were given to us, and bowls of sickly pink sirUp, sweet potato and indian corn cakes of dusky hue were set before each one. These were only creyice fillerS and concluded the first and lighter portion of the repast. Now same the real substantial meal, where A every dish had an accompaniment of smaller ones, containing gravies, etc.. in which to dip the morsel taken from the central bowl.
 There was stewed duck cooked with- out salt. roast sucking pig, forcemeat balls and chicken; there were soups of birds nest, of mushroom, of vegetables and of sea slugs. There was grilled fresh water fish. which, according to custom, was helped from the top side oEly. for the Chinese remembers his servant And, nAally, at the conclu- sion the inevitable small bowl of rice and rice water vas set before each person.

 Among old time laws against kissing those of Iceland appear to have been the most severe. Punishment was the penalty laid down for kissing another mans wife. either with or without her consent. The same punishment was enforced for kissing an unmarried wo- man against her will; if 1t could be proved that she had consented to be kissed the offender was still liable to | fine of a great quantity of cloth for sach 0frense.

George Howard. Resigns
Presidency of the George

Only a few members of the local Stock

Many are out of the city on a three

nothing by being absent was shown by
the very limited trading, and the In
consequential changes in values. None

the sales record, Gas was not traded in,

NEW YORK. May 2s.-There was
but a light volume of trading, but
values were reasonably steady with
small fractional losses, here and
there a like gain, and no especial
weakness save in Steel common. AS
the Street interprets the testimony oil
the chief witness in the investigation
of the Steel Corporation, there is more
or less personal feeling between the
organizers of the Steel Corporation
and Mr.. Carnegie on one side and
John W. Gates on the other. Lead
ers do not expect the testimony to
have any particular effect on the mar
ket. but 1t has certainly caused some
weakness, aided or probably more
influenced. by the cutting in the price
of products. Some strong holders of
Steel common sold the stock this
morning and it broke from the closing
price of Saturday, 7S% to 77S, the
most prominent decline of the mar
row market
Mr. Gary returned to New York in
an optimistic frame of mind, express
ing the most promising views as to
conditions in the West. When asked
whether he would call a meeting of the
steel manufacturers today to discuss
matters in general, he said he would.
1T is hard to tell what the outcome
of the cut by the Republic Iron and
Steel Company will be, but l am hoping
for the best and trust that there will
be no general reduction in prices
Everything out West Is rosy and
generally prosperous. The steel plants
at Gary are doing well, and the whole
general outlook is for the best. With
anything like a normal crop this year
the country should again be in a pros
porous condition"
Generally speaking the market was
waiting for the Tobacco decision. but
az a real matter of fact that steel sit
uation and the Atlantic coast drought
are factors of Importance that are
largely responsible for the limited bust
ness. Gossip from the offices of COM
mission houses is generally of a favor
