rush of Hhorts un enfiy matter. After tne
Writer buylpff waa over , however , the innr-
Urt fell away again. The advance Indueed
fie putting forth of in ire anil heavier initin-

siivnln liclniT apparently led by the Lelter
Interests , and the price bad recovered to

Corn In the main was llrm and fairly
active. For a time during the inornlnK
ir.'lces were Inclined to droop with wheat ,
1-iit the maiket crew decidedly strong as

greatly by the advance In provisions. Com.

more liberal , and some reaction followed.
The close was llrm. May ratified from

A Kood deal of Interest wns shown In
provisions. Small receipts of how started

NEW YOHK. Feb. 3. The stock market waa
stronger tudny at the opening , but weakened
nn realizing pales. Pressure by the bear trui !
era was marked njid the outsldo support nf-
fordcd by buying orders through commlaslson
houses was conslderaWy legs. Thcro was a
strong tone In n few Individual stocks r-nd ad
vances In othera were brought about by manipu
lation. lyomlon also bought BOIIIO securities
here. All causes combined , howovcr , did not
aVall to maintain prices tn the general list nnd
the average of the mnrket sagged to a lower
level. Ttiti conspicuous movement of the day
wa.i In Great Nortern preferred , which ndiU'd
Hi more points to Its recent upward course ,
making Its gains thus far for the week 20 points ,
The supply of this stock on the exchange Is
exwdlngly light nnd even the demand for n.
small quantity raises the price very quickly.
The melhod of operation on this road atut
llnanclnl returns to Its sub.Hldlary companies
mnka Ihe Block attractive at any tlmo on the
general possibility of readjustment of relations
nnd the advance Ihls week gives strong grounds
for supposing Ulint the general possibilities nrc
shaping In concrete form. There wnfl nothing
In the news of the day ti > warrant n state
ment as to what that concrete form may be.
Over 3. OX ) shnreH changed hands during the
day. lliltlmori > & Ohio also showed continued
strength , grounded on ruVnors of the" approach
ing completion of the reorganization plan , for
wlilnh there wns no authentic warrant. Nor
folk & Western preferred advanced over a
point nt one time on the strength of yester
day's 1 per cent dividend declaration , the buyIng -
Ing of the stock for Ix > ndon account IxMng par
ticularly gowl. Almost nil of the gain wns lost
In a Into reaction. The coalers were favor
ably affected as n group by the prevailing cold
wnat'her. but they failed to hold their gain.
Rubber preferred enjoyed nn advantage from the
current demand for overs'hoes created by the
storm. The Vnnderbllts were strong nt tlm s ,
Michigan Central being brought Into the talk
of consolidation. Sugar nl > ruled nlwo yoster-
dny'H closing prices. Other exception ! ) to the
prevailing weakness might be named , but
they were not conspicuous and none held all
of their advance. Union Pacllle preferred waa
very largely dealt In and rose shandy over last
night's chttc , but fell below Ixifori ) the close ,
Tha activity of Hie market showed n consider
able falling off from recently prevailing avcr-
Thii active Interest In the bond market was
much bettor sustained than In stocks and prices
were better held , the general level being higher
nnd somu sharp gains being scored. Total sales.
J3C10.0W. Government liondi were strong nil

The Kvenlng Post's Ixmdon financial cable
gram nays : "Tlio stock markets hero today

CATTLE llccelpts oC cattle wore small
as compnre-d with yesterday , there being ; a
railing.off of 1.000 liuatl. All told only eighty-
four loads were reported In the yards. The
market as a whole was in very fair shape ,
with values ) not much changed from yester
day.Cornfod
Cornfod beeves mere in moderate supply
and a largo proportion of those on sale were
only 'warmed up stuff. In fact good cattle
\vero decidedly scarce. The. demand was
reasonably good and the desirable lots
among the offerings changed hands In geol
season and at fully steady prices. Common
kinds were not such good free Hollers , but
owing to the light offerings they were , all
cleared up In tlio end.
Cows and helforH were in very fair demand
at steady prices and an early clearance was
nffnntixl
Stoekers and feeders were about steady at
the decline. Representative sales.

la tills etory Mr. Haggard inaltcs
a new demonstration of his won
derful power In tlio field ot pure
romance. Ho once moro boidly
lifts the curtain that hides the fate
of uatlcas dead and burled In the
ages of wlilch no record remains ,
except In the- silent rules of their
cities.
Zlmboe , an Inland1 trading city
that nourished In the heart of
Africa 3,000 yenrs ago , and peopled
by tlio Phoenicians , Is the scene of
the story. To this city comes
Prlcico Azlcl , a grandson of King
Solomon , accompanied by Isanchar ,
a prlcot ot Israel , sad Motcm , a
Phoenician trader , who brings a
caravan of merchandise.
In Kllssa , daughter of Sakon , Itlng
of Zlmboo , the prince meets his
fate. King Ithobal , lord of many
legions of sivago warriors , la al
ready a suitor for her hand. Ho
sues 1m true barbarian fashion ,
seeks to carry her off by force , and
la foiled In the attempt by Prince
Azlol. The story unfolds Itself
around the feud between the Prlnco
of Inraol and : the savage King Itho

passionate love seeka to surmount
all harriers. Jlcaatlmo , Ithobal

ing Ellsoa In marriage , prepares
to destroy It If ho Is rofuacd , How
Ellesa vlolalrn her oith n high

and threatened' ' with death by the
prlestfl of IJaal ; how , to aavo each ,
other , filie , by her right au I ho hlgli
prlcstcKs ot liaal , names him her
husband , whllo ho renounces his
faith and offers lacenno to Haul ;
how Ithobal's horde of savages
storrnu the walla of the city , cad
both Azlcl anil 1C I Ism fa'.l Into hla
power ; and how , at last , Az'lcl es
capes with his life by Kllena'd
feigned submission to Ithobnl , slio
In turn escaping Ithobal by killing
herself , ia all tola In Mr. HagKard'a
mofit fascinating ninr.ner ,
The awful ceremonies la the temPle -
Plo of Bool , the weird rites In the
sacred graven of Ximboo , and the
barbarous battle scoties of that far-
off time , are described with all the
author's nwrvolous wraith of Iraag.
