their residence at Elmhurst, and later

his cruelty was unbearable and his
laziness was on a par with It. The
only time he would arouse himself from
his lethargy was when he beat her. He
was too lazy to change his clothes or
to leave the house for weeks. At vari
ous times he paraded around In a nude

children. He used to boast of having
visited immoral resorts. She left him

MARKETS AND STOCKS
Wall Street Review.
( New York. July 1. Stocks today were
lower. At the opening the market lacked
the foreign support which has been such
a conspicuous feature of late. As consid
erable stress has been laid upon the re
cent foreign baying, the professional
trader, who are bearishly inclined, put out
additional short lines. Local bull opera
tors who are apparently discouraged by
the strength of the free silver men at Chi
cago and the reports that the Altgeld con
tingent will not only write the platform
for the Democracy, but name the presi
dential candidate as well, lost courage and
did little or nothing to stem the downward
movement. Several clever manipulators
forced the pace and a firm credited wi;n
acting for politicians of national repute
ulso sold liberal amounts of the standard
railway issues and the Industrials. Early
In the day a report was circulated that
two to four millions gold would ba for
warded to Europe by Saturday's steam
ers. Chicago. Philadelphia and Boston
sent inquiries but careful Investigation
failed to discover any basis for the report.
The concensus of opinion was that the
operators now In control of the market
were responsible for the story. The re
duction In the premium of gold bars an
nounced today by the treasury department
while of advantage to both the govern
ment and exporters Is not likely to lead
to heavy shipments of the metal accord
ing to prominent foreign bankers. The
course ot the sterling exchange market
rather corroborates this belief. The de
cline In stocks at one time was equal to
'aa3. per cent. In this decline Manhat
tan, the Industrials, the Grangers and
Southwesterns were especially prominent.
Tobacco sold down to OS, the fullure of
the directors to declare a dividend on the
Common having brought about liquid.
Hons. Manhattan sold as low as 971.. A
block on long stock was sold for a Arm
which Intends going out of business. The
ruling of tho railroad commission ordering
the company to give special service in
the sparsely settled districts was also
used against the stock. At tho close the
market was heavy In tone, aVt changes
Fhow losses of Ua3T4 per cent. Sugar and
Manhattan lead. Total sales were 33S.O
shares.
