PRICES IN MARKET
VARIED GREAT DEAL
Though There Were Some Losses
of Thursday Recovered the
Stock List Was Feverish
HILL GROUP CENTRE OF ATTACK
Market, However, Met the Effective
Support and St. Paul Touched the
Highest Level Early in the Day
Bank Statement Today Will Not be j
Comforting,
(By Associated Press.)
NEW YORK. Doc. 14.?There was |
a great variety and no little feverish
hess In the movement of prices in to?
day's slock market. The general tone
became much better than yesterday
and recovery from yesterday's losses j
was achieved, but In a very spotty and
Irregular manner. The overwhelming
share of attention was given to the
Northwestern Transit - Continental
group.
There was evidence early in the
day of the further divergent move?
ment In the Hill stocks and St. Paul
/but the market met effective support
and the latter touched its highest j
level early in the day.
Money continued in strong demand ]
today, the call loan rate rising as high
as 19 per cent, and receding only af?
ter the principal demand had been
satisfied. Forecasts of the bank re-j
serves to the required legal propor-1
tion of deposits.
The hanks appear to have gained
on balance on the Interior movement
nnd a million dollars has come from
California, but this was not sufficient
to offset the absorption of $4,581,0001
by the sub treasury.
With an indicated cash loss of sev?
eral million dol'ars the restoration of]
a surplus would be dependent there-1
fore on a very heavy loan contraction.
Sentiment is rather confident, bow
ever, over a relaxation of the money I
market next week. Tomorrow's pay?
ments will be made on the govern-1
ment Interest due up to May 1st next,
nmountlnp: to some $12,000,000. It is |
exnected that the government deposits
with National banks elsewhere, to, the]
amount of $10,000,000. will begin to |
return to Now York next week and
the effect of the purchase by the |
treasury of $10,000,000 of government
bonds also will be felt..

END OF THE UNIVERSE.
Ilntv it Will Cuutn According! <<> Hie
,\firHi*liiiiil Mytli.
One of the most striking of the Xorsc
lilltd myths is that in which is pictured
the end <>i the universe, when all lite
I'.ods of Asgtird und NlfUchclui und the
Inhabitants of ?lotunhcliii und Midgard,
together wllh llioir habitations, would
be destroyed. That tlds catastrophe
would come to all the visible creation
they firmly believed, for their untaught
minds could not conceive of immor?
tality.
Ami this Is how they pictured the
fearful time: Three winters would
come upon the earth, one after another,
without the tempering influence of a
single summer. Suow would fall from
every quarter of the heavens, wild
storms would sweep over the earth,
witli tempestuous winds that nothing
could withstand, and the sun would
lose its heat.
Three other winters would succeed
tlie first three, during which red vis
aged war would stall; over the uni?
verse, leaving blo.id and death in Its
ruthless truck. 'Iben the earth would
begin to tremble In uncontrollable fear,
the sea would rush from its bed, the
heavens would lie rent, and the ongles
of I lie air would feast upon the still
quivering flesh of multitudes of men
slain without warning.
Fc?ris, the wolf monster, would
throw oft* his bonds; the Midgard ser?
pent, whose gignullc form encircled the
world, would rise from its lair, nnd
Loki. the evil genius of the universe,
would desert the gods and go back
amen' their ? enemies. Surtur would
lead his followers t > the Hit*rest bridge,
devouring flames' before and behind
them, and, having destroyed it In
their passage, they would join Loki
and tin? frost giants on the battlefield
of Vlgrld, where Feurls, the Midgard
serpent and the hosts of Hehl lind al?
ready assembled
Meanwhile Hclmdnll, the watchman
of Asgard, the abode of the gods, would
sound the alarm with tlie Glnllar horn,
summoning the celestial cohorts to the
field. Odin, clad in all the splendor
of his supreme office, would lead forth
the gods in martial array. Fenris,
pressing forward, would throw him?
self upon Odin with a fierceness that
the deity could not withstand, and tlie
All Fiithcr would full, pierced with n
thousand wounds from the monster's
fnngs.
Then Vldar, (he son of Odin, would
fall like a thunderbolt upon the blood
reeking wolf and avenge his celestial
fnther's death. Thor, the nil powerful,
would slay, with bis great hammer,
the Midgard serpent, but even ns tliei
monster gave up its lifo its venomous
breath would wreak vengeance upon
the slayer, nnd Thor would sink down,
suffocated to death.
Meanwhile Loki nnd Helmdnll have
been seeking each other, and. having
met, they would fight with the fury of
demons until both were slain. ThUi!
all over the bloody Held gods nnd
giants, good spirits nnd evil, would
meet and slay each other, anil when
the dreadful etirnngo was ended Sur?
tur would send his fiery flames nbroad,
nnd tlie universe would be burned.
The sun would lose Its light, the
earth would disappear, the stars would
fall from heaven, and time would be
no more! _

4,295 KILLED PAST
YEAR ON RAILWAYS
- i
Inter State Commerce Commiss?
ion's Statistics Show Great In?
crease Over Former fears.
SOME DECREASE IK CRASHES
Brakes and Carelessness Cause for
Much Damage to Property?Total
of Collisions and Derailments for
Quarter Treated Was 3.103, With
a Loss of $2,373,924.
?WASHINGTON, I). C. Hoc. 14.?
lu reporting a total of 033 persons
killed ami 10,004 Injured during the
second quarter <?r 1906 in Its re?
cently published accident bulletin the
Interstate Commerce Commission
declares that the number Is less tliail
in the last preceding quarter, but
more than in corresponding mun?
ter of 11105. "In considering traut
accidents alone, however," says the
report, "there is a gratifying tllmluu
1 lion both in passengers killed and
employes killed, compared with eltti?
er of the two earlier quarters men?
tioned."
For the year ended June, 30, 190G,
however, the commission's tlgures
show great increases In the total
death roll of passengers and em?
ployes over the year or 1905, 1904
and 1903. As will be seen in the
accompanying table, a total of 4,296
passengers and employes were killed
lu this year 3.71IK in 1906, 3.787 In
1904 nnd 3.554 in 1903. However
the total of deaths of passengers
alone was less in 1900 than In any
year since 1903, comparing thus: ?
1900, 4IS; 1905, 537; 11104, 42U.
Great Increase in Injured.
There is a great Increase of In?
jured in the last, report over the
preceding three years. There were
11,135 passengers hurt lu 1900. t!,778
in train accidents and 4.4U7 from
other causes. In 1905 there were
10,040, in 1901 S,077 and In 1903
t;,*.!7:i. The commission makes no
slatemenl as to cause for the lo?
ci ease, whether it Is due to growing
business, efforts to attain in greater
speed or Increased rutlessness of
employes, but there are several In?
teresting notes in explanation of
accidents which are tabulated.
From these it would appear that
the railway brake, both air and band,
is responsible for many accidents.
"Brakes did not work" Is a note In
many, while the accidental turning
of air brake cocks caused severnl
bad derailment!!.
Larger Number of Collisions.
The total number of collisions and
derailments in the quarter ended
.lime 3d. 1906, was 3,103 (1,588 col?
lisions and 1,515 derailments), of
which 173 collisions and 153 de?
railments affected passenger trains.
The damage to ears engines and
roadway by these accidents amount?
ed to $2,373,924. Derallmelnts due
to defects of equipment, 004; to
negligence of trainmen and signal?
men. S7; unforseen obstruction of
track, 62; malicious obstruction of
track, 17, and to miscellaneous
causes, 394.
Carelessness Responsible.
Carelessness in the use of block
I signals, carelessness in reading or?
ders on single track lines and care?
lessness of conductors and hrakenien
on the trains caused a great many
accidents. It is noticeable that in
thirty prominent train accidents in
the quarter covered by the report
the engine driver was at fault just
once, and Dial was a case In which
a man of twenty-seven years exper?
ience ran by an automatic signal.
In great, detail are given the
cause of accidents to employes In
coupling ami uncoupllug car.*. Sixty
eight men were killed In accidents
of this sort and 813 Injured.
"TIP" SAVES CITY $25,000.
Evidence of Wholesale Perjury Dis
covered at Eleventh Hour.
CHICAGO. ILL., Dec. 14.?An an?
onymous note of seven words
probably saved the city or Chicago
$25,000. A seven-year-olil Jewish
boy, who has been ill in a hospital,
suffering with an Incurable spine
disease, was the feature in the
case around which the plaintiff's]
lawyers had built an apparently Im?
pregnable battery of facts
The case ended in Judge Chet
laln's court after a nine days' bat?
tle with a verdict against the boy.
This verdict was reached after his
relatives and physicians had testi?
fied that on November 14, 1903, the
hoy's trouble had begun as the
result, of fallng Into a hole in a
sidewalk.
The "tip" which turned the tide
or the case just as the city's law?
yers had about given up hope was
found on the desk of Assistant City
Attorney S. C. Herron. It was not
signed, and rend as rollows: ?
"Go to the West Side Jewish Hos?
pital."
Investigators were sent out and
learned that the boy had entered
the hospital three weeks before the
alleged injury in Morgan street.
.The evidence of wholesale perjury
will be taken before tho Grand
Jury.

The living female Insect Is twlee as

many millions of the creatures are
drowned or washed off the plants, so
that when the long dry summer comes
there are but a few survivors ou each
plant. Hut these multiply so rapidly

round of the uopulry and with a brush
go over the entire plant, sweeping the |
creatures Into a bug. They then urn
killed by Immersion in hot water, by
exposure to sleain or by drying In hot
ovens.. The hot water or steam makes
(hem a dark reddish brown or black

a red gray hue or sliver cochineal. The
females outnumber the mules by at

planter, since the males are of no use
