REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS

NEW YORK IETXEE. New York, May 2S. The stock market opened irregular with declines In some quarters while gains were recorded in others. The railroad shares showed a disposition to rally after the opening flurry. Union Pacific advanced from 132 to 131 "i; St. Paul from

123"4 to 1254; Northern Pacific, New York Central, Great Northern, Pennsylvania and the balance of the higher priced shares scored advances varying from one-half to one per cent.

More cheerful crop news from the west and northwest; the belief growing that the gold exports would not exceed four or five millions and a rather oversold market caused the slight advance throughout the list. President Ripley's views upon the crop situation in Kansas where the Atchison road traverses was more reassuring and caused a spurt in the price of Atchison shares from 86 to S8. It is believed in the street that President Roosevelt's speech Thursday will not be radical in regards to railroad legislation. It is, however, not known just what he will say. If the

previous speech at Jamestown is any

criterion, it may be as drastic as some

of his nrevious utterances upon the

same subject. Its effect upon the market, however, will only be sentimental

and of short duration. In the last hour of the session a sell ing wave appeared in Copper and Ana

cunilr ' hii-h dra treed the balance of

the market down with It. A break in the metal market in London and ru

mors that copper was being offered by

some of the larger individual produc

ers under the quotations prevailing up

on the metal exchange was assigned as

the reason for the weakness. 1 he en-

tiro market closed irregular with a

weak undertone.

in their crop conditions. The market closed rather weak at the decline. CORN Ruled weak In sympathy with wheat. Iiack of country offerings and a break of a cent a bushel in the sample market were the principal disturbing factors. Cash sales were large, 240, 000 bu. reported sold to exporters. Tbe speculative market had a range of only about five-eighths of a cent for

the day, closing steady with a slight

loss compared with yesterday.

OATS: Weak and lower throughout

the session with very little rallying

power. ijiquiaanon oy me longn in July and September continued upon a

rather large scale with new buying

orders greatly diminished. Cash sales

were 125.000 bu. The market closed weak with a Joss of about five eighths

or a cent lor me oay.

We advise the purchase of good rail

road stocks and Amalgamated Copper

on weak spots at the opening today for good turns. Saturday's decline was engineered by floor traders and brought

out no new liquidation of consequence while the influence of the excellent

bank statement should lead to a quick recovery. With the holiday breaking into the week we do not look for a nntl..,l.lir otivo market at once OT

anv movement of general importance

but many of the good stocks are on -basis that recommends them for per

manent investment. Louisville & Atlantic Coast Line, Southern and Union Pacific, Great Northern and Northern Pacific, Atchison and P,altlmore & Ohio are decidedly in this class and should be bought on all breaks. The bears have always the Erles and Southern Railway shares at their service and to a lesser extent Steel common and New York Central. But more resistance to bearish attacks is manifest now In high rrvnAn' ctiritlf9 e-pTierallV than for

5t auo ....... 0 some time. Evidently accumulation Is going on or inside interests among the leading rails and indeed a better sentiment prevails among the industrials as account is taken of the fact that strength in the grain markets is due even more to conditions abroad

than at home and that wnn lair tiu

returns our much heralded business re

action may turn out a temporary at

fair after all. M. K. & T. earnings are

increasing at the rate of 40 to 50 per cent. The preferred is a most excellent

nvestment and the common Is .a good

peculation as are most of the south

western issues.

Chicago, May 2S. WHEAT Has been on the down grade ever since the opening of the session. The initial

rrices were about the highest of the

day. A general clearing up In weather

conditions both in the south and north

west combined with realizing sales by

the longs and the belief becoming more

that prices should have a

reaction. These factors caused a gen

eral selling movement in the market. There was a sprinkling of buying or

ders discernible at the decline. ine market is more or less of a weather affair and should the present seasonable weather prevail during the week, prices undoubtedly will see some further recessions. The foreign news pertaining to the crop was also a little more cheerful. Good rains throughout the continent being very beneficial to the growing crop. Foreign markets, both Liverpool and Antwerp being

! Quoted lower, reflecting this movement

Cremation of the Dead. Cremation i3 one of tbe most ancient methods of disposing of the dead. Before the beginning of the Christian era, cremation prevailed among all

civilized nations, except the Jews, Chi

nese and Egyptians. Later, however, this form gave way to earth burial.

Cremation has had a revival during

the last few years, and from one ere

matory in existence in I8S0, there were oyer 50 in 1890, and since then

others have been added to the list

each year. Cremation is common In

Japan, where 47 per cent, of the dead are incinerated. The first crematory

in the United States was built at

Washington, Pa., in 1876, by Dr. Le Moyne! and the first incineration there

was that of the body of Baron de Palm, which took place in December of the same year. This was the only

rrpmatorv in the "United States-until

Bible Drove Him to Drink.

Abram B. Cartridge, very drunk, was

picked up by the police force from the

trutter on South Main street, says a

dispatch from Waterbury, Conn. In bis hand he clasped an open Bible and

he spoke to the officers strangely in

Scriptural phrases. In court Abram

said that study of the Bible had driven

him to his fall.

"It i3 so full of Inconsistencies," ho

declared. "I learn its truths and am UDlifted then I discover that its

truths are false, and I sink to the depths. How can I deliberately stay

in my right mind, judge, when I find

that the foundation of salvation is

builded on sand, and good liquor, whirr, will make me forget it. Is so

cheat) ?"

Cartridee was sent to jail for 30

v ------ davs.
