MR. SCOTTS PETITION.
There is no man on the South Side
more Indignunt than Patrick Sarsrteld
Scott, of Fig street; all on account of a
stream of waste water which Is of con
siderable annoyance to him. There Is
a nine per cent, grade on Fig street
between Cedar and Plttston avenues,
but the stream does not observe the
laws of gravitation and tt stagnates In
front of his property. The water comes
from a pipe which leads from some of
the properties above Plttston avenue,
and Mr. Scott thinks It Is an Injustice
of frightful men. He went around yes
terday with a tietltlon asking councils
for redress. His opposition to this pri
vate waste water pipe may lead to hav
ing a pipe drain laid on Fig street from
Stotie avenue to the river. . Such a
thing would be the same as a sewer
and the proerty owners are said to bn
in favor of It.

Wall Street Hev lew-
New York, May 1 The only feature at
the Stock, r.xchmige today was the breiK
in American Tobacco. The slock fell from
9 to SS. rallied to S. and closed nt
ST'i, a loss of I1 per cent, for the day.
Nearly IMuO shares of the stock were trad
ed in and a number of timid holders who
fear prolonged litigation on account of the
recent action of the director In declar
ing the SO per cent, scrip dividend, sold
out. Sugar, on the other hand, displayed
greater strength, and on buying by brok
ers who have been arrayed on .the bull
side of this specialty for months, rose to
121 from 123V The greatest advance, how
ever, was made by Hay State Os. This
stock moved up rapidly from ii to 2H on
purchases of less than tMQ shares. Vt"
general list opened steady and declined
In sympathy with the break in Tobacco.
Near the close, when Sugar advanced, the
whole market Improved and left off firm.
The variations In prices, however, call lor
no special comment. Net changes for the
day genrally show gains of ial per cent.
Totals sales were only HU.OT shares.
