NEW YOIIK , Nov. 27. Although the een-
cral Impression this morning wan that the
llrcctors of Northwestern would at their
meeting Bcala the dividend , there wn BO
much cf the clement of doubt In the sltua-
lon that many of the shorts went to cover
and their purchases counteracted to some
extent the gelling of other operators , to
only n loss of ? i per cent \viis made from
txst night's cloning price. This decline vvna
Itilckly recovered , isn'l upon the circulation
if a report tlmt they Will 'dividend had been
Icclared nn advance * 6f 2 i per cent , to & 3 ,
van effected. The tr6 announcement cotn-
ng shortly after cafi&dj a lireak of 2 psr
cent , but the ready Ijbjotjptlon of the stock
offered for sale nnd iij realization ot the fact
hat the full 2'4 pcrnqeiA had been earned
caused a revulsion g eellng and Induced
lUJ'liiB that brc-ughq tiput a recovery of
per cent , making npi-aetual gain of % per
cent on the door. y.
The sister shares mavad sympathetically ,
lurltngton receded , | 'pfcr ' cent , , advanced
, ' , fj- per cent , broke iy'Pr cent , and rallied
% per cent tn the flilal shies , closing Vs per
cent higher than onryBsterday. St. Puul
moved within n ranrrnof % per cent , also
linking n net advance ft 'i per cent. Hock
alaml fluctuated wllhlu the still narrower
Imlts of 14 per cent and gained V4 per cent.
The coal shares advnijccd steadily through
out the day. The general market opened
heavy and declined nO fraction. In the early
dealings , which was : followed by u" slight
rally. The speculation then lapsed Into
dullness , and was without special movement
until nbout 12:30 o'clock , when an upward
movement set In , which was checked by the
break In Ncrthwestcni , nnd there was a
general reaction.
During the last hour the market was
strong under the leadership of Sugar , which
was heavily bought , and the speculation
closed strong In tone , with prices ( n the ac-
: lve list at or near the best cf the day.
The- bond market betrayed heaviness during
the morning , but In the afternoon the spec-
ilntlon. was Influenced by the stn-npth of the
share list nnd closed In good tone. The
sales today were $1,081,600.
The Evening Post's Londjn cablegram
saya : The stock , markets v ere generally
quiet and steady todur. Init dull and Hat In
the case of Americans , Ith j-.n average fall
of 14 to 1 per cent. Continuation rates were
light everywhere , the n-p-junt being very
strong , except In mines. Tht general rate on
Americans was ] % d. French exchange Is

Wlso Vrccmitlons for I'roventinc ; the Din
use In Winter.
The months of November , December an
January bring the greatest mortality from tha
dreaded disease , croup. Simple croup Is nc
particularly fatal , and may occur again an
again In the same 'child , but membraneou
croup Is an enemy not to bo despised , and I
rarely repeated. The symptoms are rauc
alike , and the best plan la to look on all case
as membraneous until proved otherwise.
The first suggestion of croup Is the volci
which becomes hoarse , and is accompanle
by a cough terminating In a sound like
cock's crowing. Mothers who have ncvi
heard It recognize the sound Instinctively.
This is dne of tha cases where "an ounc
of prevention Is worth pound * of cure , " an
the scnsiblo mother is always prepared t
meet tlio enemy.
Simple croup Is cured by equally slmpl
means. The mother Is the best judge as I
whether going out makes the disease worsi
Same children are badly affected , others IK
at all , so no one rule applies. The clothln
must be warm , the air In the house kej
pure and sweet the diet regulated so as nt
to Increase any feverish symptoms ; at bee
( line a hot mustard foot bath , external appl
cation of liniment to the throat , and a fo
drops of syrup of Ipecacuanha taken tntei
nally. A majority at cases yield to tli
treatment without any outside aid.
Membraneous croup 1s stubborn. Dcsldi

common cold , but all the time a false men

How many people know how ID examine tl

Chlorate ot potash , bicarb ot itoda , lima

n older children by an atomizer. Kcv
hlldren can gurgle , though It ought to bo
aught them. Sick children cannot be taught
njrthlng , but only become terrified. It Is
uch a relief to n doctor to find children who
re not startled by the night ot Instruments
nd medicines. Ono mother who has n very
nlnful illseoHo Inherent In her family has
nado It her duty to show her ( lock , ranging
rom 3 to 17 years , stomach rumps ,
tomlzors , syringes , surgical needles , knives ,

an Francisco Examiner , the ascent to the
nountalns south Is more gradual , almost val-
ey-llke. Yet this vvliolo region ( or mora
han a mlle of frontage and art Unknown
epth south is moving , slowly , but with
the steady , resistless march of , a glaclor ,
ow.ird the northwest.
Although this B Iran go earth movement baa
eng been known , particularly ( o workmen
t tli9 railway company , whose line , ot road-
led follows the south bank ot the rlvejr
icre , public attention was first , called tard
ily to Its phenomena by testimony given In.
i series ot damage suits against the Union
'aclflc company In the wlqtcr ot 1890.
A caboose loaded with workmen going to
remove ( rom the track one ot the numeroua
3 ml slides near by , was precipitated through
small Ircfctlo bridge upnnnlng a mountain
stream here. Several of the men were
tilted and a number seriously Injured. It
vas developed by the testimony that the
mnicdiato cause of the accident was Ibu
vashtng away of n bent ot tha
irldge by sudden high water. Hut
even such unwilling witnesses as the brldga
carpenters and section men had to
id in It on oath that there was a constant slid-
UK and clipping ot the earth nt this briilgo ;
hat the br.dge required constant watching
and frequent "lining up , " not because o
earth sliding down on It , but because the
vholo structure nnd Us foundation was coiu *
stantly though slowly moving toward tha
river.
After this trial nothing occurred to direct
public attention to the point until tilts mim-
ner , although the place had been a constant
menace and annoyance to tha railroad people.
The mountain has slowly but surely pushed
la way toward the river hcretolore , anil the
Columbia has as slowly bitten oft chunks
'rom ' the mountain , which were eo temptingly
offnred , and the company , viewing this sin
gular process complacently , has so ( ar con-
ented Itself with edging itself back a llttlo
'iirther mountalnwards as Its erstwhile road
bed slipped "Just a little" Into the river's
now'until this seemed to become the or-
lalned nature of things to last Indefinitely.
But the big Hood of this summer had not
been provided ( or ; old Columbia needed
nero room to get through to the ocean , and
being la Its strength , took all It needed ,
sweeping the obstructing mountain side- with
Its ralljoad and country road away as snovr
; oea before the chlncok wind , leavinga
steep Incline of conglomerate sand and rock
racing- the roaring river , nnd with It a. prob
lem ( or the engineers to wrestle with dur-
ng the summer weeks , the outcome being
'ar moro creditable to the company's cconom-
cs than its engineering skill , unless In-
Iced , as it seems , ptobable , llio only object
.hey Imd In view was to build any kind ot a
ro.id suitable to turn over to the old com
pany as cheaply and as soon as possible.
They would have been eve-n quicker In
"opening the , road ( or Iralllc" had not the
new roadbed along tlio brink been eo ob
stinately determined to follow Its leader Into
the river while building.
What catisjs this mysterious movement ot
tin mountain ? Have wo not In America
sdlnllsts who will undertake to- find the rca-
con ? The solution of this homo problem
should interest sorno of them.
Several theor'ei have been advanced. Ono
Is that ; underneath , the basaltic rock that
covers the whole country hereabouts ; like a
bit ; rumpled blanket there Is at this point a
stratum of Eoft soapstone , which , becoming
wet and tllppery , allows the superincumbent
strata to go a-tobogganlng. Soapstone docs
crop out In placci along the river , as If to
give color to the theory , but If this were the
only cause ; would not the movement be moro
Intermittent and violent , and not to slow nnd
regular ar It appears ?
Is It not possible that in that past aga
when geologists tell us the greater part ot
the earth's surface was covered with an Ice
y that an overflow ot basaltic lava hero
Imprisoned a glacier thick enough to resist
Its heat ? Is not the Ice cave region under
the basalt south of Mount Adams. In Wash
ington , not very far from this point , and the
similar Ice caves In the desert , country near
I'rlnevillc , Ore. , a proof that something Ilka
this has happened ? Then why not bereT
The movement ot Traveling mountain cer
tainly in some respects resembles the much
of a glacier.
At all events the mountain , like Ilrer Jag *
per'g sun , "do move , " That much la cer
tuln. The "why" is yet lo bo known.
