Cmcioo , Aug. IB. The promlum on cur-
ronoy Increasing the discount on Now York
drafts hero today was chiefly what knocked
% v off tlio pi-leo of wheat. Corn suffered
also to the extent of * ( o. Ihcro was n do-
clilcil scarcity of offerings of provisions.
Compared with last night , pork U up 27'fc ,
lurd 17J < c and ribs ' 'Oo.
Wheat at the opening was about } ( c lower
than yestonltiy'8 closing figures , and after
BOino sllgh t lluctuutlons price * further de
clined } ( < ! , tlicn bccnino strong , and were ad
vanced from Ic to \c \ ) , again oasud off , and
the closing wns easy , froin c to ? ( , 'o from tlio
bottom. It was surmised thnt some of the
largo speculative operators wcro creating a
little .Tintilpulatton of the market in n specu
lative w.-.y. A day or two ngo they bought
it the lower lletircs nnd the market ad
vanced sharply , and at the Higher
prices It wns claimed , they sold , and
now arc awaiting n turn to buy in again. Of
course the Mimnclal situation Is having effect
upon the market. The recent strength In
exchange helped to advance the price of
wheat , while today oxRhcngo was again re
ported easier and nt lf > o discount ami this
worked against the Interest of holders.
Cables are generally lower , rullcctilig the
course of the American markets yesterday.
The early weakness in railroad stocks in
Now York was n weakening feature. Tbcro
was good buying nt the decline which Iield
the market rather steady. Tlio receipts
continue light , even In tlio northwest the
movements seem to bo letting up. Local
receipts only 110 cars and the estimates for
tomorrow were only -15 cars.
In corn , cloudy weather made buyers n
llttlo backward. The weaucr feeling In
wheat also had some effect in a general way.
The market opened atfrom J c to , ' < ; o de
cline and later receded from } < , o to % c , but
recovered from Jffc to % o and closed com
paratively ste.idy.
Price changes in oats wcro confined to J c
nnd the close was at a reduction ol from ( ,0 ,
to he. Trade was light.
The packers' anticipation of a falling oft
in receipts of hogs was borne outby today's
report of only 7,501) ) head having been re
ceived nt the yards. The hog market was
consequently strong and.a n further consequence
quence the price of hog products was ad
vanced. Lard for September brought a pre
mium of from y&fie to SISii over the October
delivery , suggesting that more is sold for the
Easter month than is warranted by the
limited stocks and causing apprehension of
some sort of u squeeze. Finn ! quotations
wcro not far from tlio top.
The demand for vessel room was moderate
mm rates steady at ' 40 for wheat ana le for
corn to UulTulo and U > c for wheat and ! % c
for corn to Kingston ,
Estimated receipts for tomorrow : Wheat ,
45 cars ; corn , ! 2'J5 cars ; oats , I'J.'i cars ; hogs ,

HrourltlciVrrn Dull nnil n I.OITIT llai
of Vnlur * I'rrviilli'd ,
to NEW YOHK. Aug. 15. Tlio stock marl
un was extremely dull throughout today an
still lower range of prices prevailed. 'I
Jt , dealings wcro confined almost entirely to
professional clement , which contln
bearish ou unsettled , stuto of affairs. . 'J
true cause for this situation dovolo ;
Bt , today after 3 o'clock , wlicn It was Jean
that the syndicate formed to talto the i
lateral trust notes of thy Northern l > ac
compauy to liquidate thu lloalliip debt I
at , been disrupted ami on the application of
10 18 trust company receivers hud been uppolu
tor tlio property. ThU Hidden turu
atTalri explains the ( steady outpouring of
all the Northern Pacific securities. The
North American , which company holds ft
cort.iln amount of Northern Pacific securi
ties , vrrxs naturally affected , and sold at ' ! ? *
per ccntj.tho lowest price over touched. The
Northern Pacific common fell off to 4 < per
cent and the preferred to 1M . In the ro-
m.ilnJcr of the list , General Electric fell off
2Jf per cent to 37U and Chicago Gas 2 / per
cent to 43f , whlfo other stocks yielded from
M to4 } per cent. During the afternoon
there was a rally of } 4 to 1 ! per cent , nnd
the Improvement was fairly well maintained
at the closo. That there was no particular
pressure to sell was evidenced by the fact
that only U4UO ! shares changed hands all
day. The market closed steadier at the re
covery noted.
The Post says : The fact that the London
brokers have been buying our stocks , chiefly
St. Paul , In the face of this week's Stock ex
change settlement , Is significant , but not
exactly In the scnso of which wall street
takes It. The few days preceding London's
settlement are always devoted to the squar
ing of speculative accounts , and the accounts
of Iho last fortnight most in need of squar
ing are clearly tho' short sales. London U
not now buying for the rise. The largo cap
italists seem lo have taken already a sufll-
clcnt load , and little speculators are for the
tlmo warned off by the high Indon money
rate. Whether this rate Is to make further
advances depends , no doubt , on the action of
the Bank of France.
Paris exchange holds firm even above the
rate at which gold can bo shipped to London ,
and It Is bound to so long as London's open
market , discounts rule at 4 per cent , against
2)4 ) per cent in Paris. Thus far the French
bank has shown unexpected willingness to
release Its gold ; arguing no doubt thnt the
gold will go lo the United States perforce ,
sooner or later , when Franco Is compelled to
mains qooil Its-fodder crop deficiency in our
markets. All this and the ready accommo
dation of our bankers In the Herman specie
market look strongly unlike the "scramble
for gold" by the whole of Kuropo of which
wo have lately heard so much. Some of the
Ignoramuses who lot loose last Sunday's
cables on a dismayed community pointed
with gloomy shakes of the head to the very
high premium on gold In Homo and Madrid ,
H docs n6t seem to have occurred to these
philosophers that uationi on the verge of
bankruptcy nnd Hooded with Irredeemable
paper money are very likely to bo anxious
bidders for the llttlo gold their own depre
ciated currency will buy.
The followlnc are the closing quotations

"Mamma , dear , why do you let thnt
horrid mnn como into our room at
night11
"What mandnrling ? " I asked , scnrcolj
heeding my child's question.
"Tho man with the straw hat , whc
stands before your dressing table and
does something to his neck. "
I put down the book I was reading ir
my bedroom and wcut over to my child's
cot.
"Go to sleep , Teddio , dear , " I mur
mured , catching his outstretched hand
and dialing it. "You linvo been dream
ing , my pet. "
"Oh , no , mamma , dear , " said my 003
rising up to a sitting posture in his cot ,
"I am not dreaming. I have not been U
sleep yet. I have boon trying to keo [
my oycs on you , but I could not holf
looking at the man. IIo frightens me
so much , mnmma , dear. "
I was quite alarmed now. What
could bo tlio matter with my dear chili
my only child my beautiful , sensible ,
sensitive , little Teddio ? lie was onlj
six years of ago , but ho scorned almost
as wise and as gentle as his father mj
darling who had loft mo forever just six
months before.
"Oil , mamma , dear , why did you icl
the horrid man come into our roam ? '
pleaded the child , the tears coursing
down his bright , chubby cheeks. "He
is such a horrid mnn so unlike deal
papa ! "
i burst into a Hood of tears. But in u
few moments I succeeded in checking
the torrent of my grief and tin-net
toward my boy.
There was plenty of light in tlio Biiiull
bedroom. A brilliant reading lamp laj
on the dressing table , I gazed enriv
cstly Into my IKI.V'H wintful brown eyes
IIo was undoubtedly wide awake , am
as I passed my hand over his face 1
found his white brow was quite cool.
"What is it. Toddle , dear ? " I asked
"Thoro is no man in the room , o
course. "
"Hut there was just , a few moment ;
ago , mamma. "
"Indeed there was not , my pot. "
"Dut I Haw him , mamma. Ho eami
last week , too , and I was awake and wiv
him. You hud loft tlio room for a while
and ho came in at the door and won
over to the dressing table and he dii
something strangp with his noek. Tlioi
I shut my oycs , and when I opened then
lie was gone. You came into the roon
then , but I was too frightened to tel
you. "
I was in a fever of alarm now. Wlui
could ail my child ?
"You wore dreaming , Teddio , dear , "
persisted , stooping over him and kit-sin
nls lips and his cheeks. "Gotoslcoj
my pot. "
"I am so frightened , mnmma , deal
All the week I was afraid to ask yo
about the mnn. Tonight ho came i
again while you were reading , and h
stood quite close to you and looked int
the looking-glass and did something t
his neck. And then I shut my oyi
tight. Won't you promise not to leav
mo tonight , mamma , dear ? "
"J promise , my pot , " kissing him agat
and laying his head gently on the pi
low. "Now , go to Bleep , dear , while
rend my book. "
Wlmt could ail my darling ? I wet
dared , as I stood near his cot putting hi
shoulders with my hand. IIo had neve
been an odd child , never been Boricmul
ill ; ho had always blept wonderfull
well ; it was not easy to frighten t
startle him. He had never had un
ntu-bo but mybolf , and I never told hli
stories of ghosts or fulrles , nor hud
allowed him to hear uuy such tales.
had always boon his companion ho was
my one thought , my one idol , alwnyn ex
cepting that other idol * my darling dead
husband , who hud shared his great love
with Teddio and mo.
The house t was now living in was
situated hard by the banks of the
Thames. It was a pretty littlodotaohcd
eottago , anil I had secured it furnished
at a wonderfully i-hoap rental nn Im
portant eoiisidoratlon , as my tncans
were narrow , and nil that could' bo saved
or spared should bo lavished on my beloved -
loved child.
The following morning ( Saturday )
Teddio seemed to bo quite himself ngaln.
tlo romped with mo , walked out with
me , talked to mo just as usituliuiid as ho
made no reference to the strange rtmn of
his dreams ( for 1 had no doubt it was u
dream which had disturbed him ) I
thought it best to Iceop slleneo on the
unpleasant subject. Nor did the child
refer to the dream during the next week.
At least , up to Friday night.
On Friday evening , shortly before S
o'clock , as 1 was tucking him up In his
cot , my darling boy said !
"Mamma , yw\ will promise to remain
with mo tonight ? "
"Yes " , dear5' ; I. replied , "if you wish
Then I klsscfl him and sat down In the
growing twilight.
There was no one living with us in the
cottage. A little girl from the neigh
borhood did all the rough housework
for me during the day , and usually wont
homo about 8 o'clock As I did iiol go
stairs little mald-of-all-work
down my - - -
cttmo up shortly after S o'clock to lot mo
know she was goinir. A sudden impulse
urged mo , and t said : "Will you toll
Dr. .laekson to give mo a call this even
ing ? You imss his house on your way
homo , 1 think ? "
As soon as tlio little girl was gone I
got my luini ) alight Teddio uas used to
the light and it never teemed to disturb
his sloop and sat down near the dress
ing table. I was in a somewhat tremu
lous condition though I am not ordin
arily weak of norvu and found myself
agitated by every sound which reached
my ours.
About 0 o'clock T was horribly alarmed
to hear a piteous cry from my child. I
laid down my book hurriedly and wont
over to him.
"Mamma ! mamma ! " ho crlod. "There
ho is again ! Oh , why do you lot him
como into our room ? "
I stared round the little bedroom , but
could s-eo nothi'ig strange.
' 'There ho is now , mamma , dear near
tlio lamp on the dressing table ! " point
ing with Ills forolingor. "And now ho
is going to lift his hand to his neck. "
1 pressed my tcrrilied child to my
bosom and soothed him with words of
love and clinging pressures. In a few
moments ho had regained his ordinary
manner , and 1 allowed his head to sink
back on the pillow.
.lust then 1 heard a loud knock at the
door.
door.My boy started. "Can this bo the
man again , mamma , dear1 said he , "tho
horrid man with the largo straw hat1
"No , darling , " I murmured , ' 'It is
the doctor. I have asked him to come
nnd sec my little Toddle. You will not
mind my leavimr you for a moment to
lot the doctor in ! "
At lirst Teddio clung to mo. but
another knock at tlio hull door roachud
our ears , and my dear boy murmured :
"I fool all right now , iimnimu. I know
ho won't como back again. Don't bo
long. "
I hurried down the short flight of
stairs and let in Dr. , laekson , a kind ,
middle-aged gentleman , whoso face was
familiar to mo. I brought the doctor up
at once to my child and whispered to
him that ho was suffering from an at
tack of nightmare , and that ho had a
strange delusion that ho saw a man with
a largo straw hut in the room.
The doctor looked curiously at mo and
then felt the child's pulse , llo asked mo
some general questions about his health
and took his temperature.
"The child seems all right , " said Dr.
Jackson , addressing me in a low voice.
' 1 don't think you need bo alarmed.
But c.r.ild I have a word with you out of
bin hearing ? "
"Tho doctor wants to speak with mo
down stairs , Teddio. " I said. "Do you
mind my leaving you alone for a few
moments- ? "
"No , mamma , dear , " ho answered.
"Only leave the door of the room open ,
' ? "
won't you
When we reached the parlor the doc
tor with a grave face said :
"Tliis is certainly a most extraordin
ary umiir most extraordinary ! . Your
child has seen , three Friday nights in
succession , a man with a largo straw
hut standing in front of the dressing
table doing something to his neek , us
tlio little man puts it. DJ you know
anything of this house ? "
"Nothing whatever , except that it is
very pretty , very comfortable and very
cheap , " I answered.
"Well , madam , " said Dr. .Tnckson ,
"my advice to you is to leave the pretty ,
comfortable , cheap house at once there
is no occasion to got mo into trouble
with the agents by tolling them you are
acting on my professional advice. "
"Hut why ? What is the mutter ? " I
asked.
"I will toll you , " said the doctor , "and
then you can decide 'for yourbolf. And
please understand , I am no believer in
ghosts , but this in certainly a most puz-
/.ling case. Tlila house wai vacant for a
twelvemonth before you took It. The
lust occupier was a man of somewhat
evil reputation ho owned tlio house , I
understand who wns very fond of boat
ing. One Friday evening , nboutO o'clock ,
ho returned from the river. Ho was
wearing rt largo straw hat ! that 1 recol
lect well , for I remember seeing It In
the room when I win called In. He out
his throat , standing in front of the
drtwslni ? table in-tho bedroom. "
I loft the awful house that night , merci
dead than alive. My boy Is a strong
man now , and one xvhom It would bo
hard to frighten , but ho remembers
still , with a fooling of horror , the un
accountable vision the vision denied tome
