NKVYOIIK , Tub. 10. The stock market Has
a falling one , and , as usual under such cir
cumstances , was dull , except wheio the op"ra-
tlonsof the bearciond created a temporary
activity. In the forenoon thu comparative
smullness of the gold shipments stimulated
thu bullish feeling which uas manifested , also
on the part of shorts to cover contracts , but
Inter the burdening tendency of money and
the prophesy of u prominent bank president
that within the next thltty days \vo\\ouldseo
a stllT G per cent money market , created
further hesitation among buyers , and stimu
lated the professional bears to fuithcr ag
gressiveness und they \vcro followed by thu
ti tiding element.
The Hnanclal situation Is regarded by both
bill Is and bears as unsatisfactory. The mar
ket was almost entirely professional today
and besides thu factors enumerated , the dis
I crimination nxalu exercised by financial Insti
tutions against certain stocks , tended not only
lo restrict operations , but to depress prices
Thu early strength sutllced to advance prices
generally small fractions. Manhattan New
Kngland and Distillers were the. only ones Ic
show any special strength , but thu pressure
brought to bear later In thu day wiped out
these Improvi incuts with something In addi
tion. Distillers und Lead , iiinong the Indus-
trluls , and Richmond X West Point , among the
rullroads being exceptionally strong and clos-
lng It h fractional gams. S'peclnlpiessure.how-
over , was brought to bear iixm | the coalers
d and all of that group was driven down materl-
, ully.wMlluun fa voraplu rumors wcru circulated
4 to accelerate the decline ,
, A heavy selling of Heading , which seemed tr
come principally from Philadelphia , drove ll
t. down from 48i ( tn 47i , . Humors vvcruulsi
7 rlfo nboiit u now uctlon t bu brought agulnsl
it the Ctiiitrul rallnnid of New Jersey , but not-
; withstanding tlicsosevuro drives , both of thesi
stocks closed with only fiactlunul changes
, Laokuwanun was not so fortuuatu and closet
down 1 | mr cent The only other material do-
< Urn , hotvi v u , were seen In Colorado I'dcl ,
which hut 1 per cent , nnd Manhattan , which
lost l'i per cent again touching 104 1'hu
bears showed llttlo disposition lo largely In-
ereii'o their short lines , and an effort was
made lo cover Into In Ihe day , which rallied
the whole market fractionally from Iho lowest
prices , On this rally the market clo-cd with n
llrm lone , and generally only slightly lower
for the day.
The I'oitxavs : Thestoek market apparently
rellected a somewhat changed sentiment re-
guiding the action of the binks In olTerlng
gold to the sub-treasury The action served
to call attention to the country's finances. It
was apparent that the relief wns only on the
surface , and Hint the banks had only temporarily
arily eiiM-d the slluutlon w IIlimit In any way re

D. R. Scott , the veteran employe of
the stock yuidb comjiany who \\as given
up to die tit liis room in the Mxohuiiffo
building homo months afro , hut after
wards recovered KO fur as to bo removed
to St. Joseph's hospital , is u ain walk
ing about the ytuds. When lirst taken
siekhovvas violently criuy. iinugininn1
himself a Ooinanohe chief und would rush
from his bed into the corridors of the
hotel with a blanket over his head , yell
ing like on Indian.
During his stay at the hospital the com
missioners of insanity visited him , ox-
peeling it would bo necessary to pluco
him in the asylum , but on the pleading of
the patient a different \ iew of the ease
was taken.
Mr. Soott explained that in 1888 he
was injured in tlio head by being
jammed agttinght the fence by a eow ,
and that over since the accident ho felt
that his head was not right , often doing
and baying things of which hovas
afterwards ashamed. Through this ex
planation the doctors made an examina
tion and performed an operation , tre
phining the patient and removing the
pressure from the brain. From the day
the operation was performed Mr. Scott
claims ho began to improve , and is now
a well man , though looking somewhat
feeble. Ho is receiving congratulations
on every hand , as ho is a general favor
ite among the fetock yards people.
One U ) ( Irani in tlio Ward.
The Fourth ward housewives who have
been depending on city water were com
pelled to provide dry toast for breakfast
yesterday. Tlio only hydrant in that
wattl went dry yesterday by order of
the water works company. The fact is ,
the South Omaha Land company con
tracted for a a wafer hydrant at Thirty-
becond and J , as an inducement
to settlers to pin chase lots in
that vicinity and paid the bills until
now , as registered by a motor , every
body in that neighborhood using all the
water they wanted. Many had the
water put in their houtcs and others
carried it from tlio common hydrant. A
prodigal UbO and waste of water canned
the land company to icfitsu longer to
foot the bill , and when the water com
pany requested the consumers to take
euro of the hydrant , bee to keeping it
