Wall Street Review.
Xew York, Oct. 27.-After a rather ii
reuular opening the Btock market re
sumed Its upward course and lor a time
tn dealings were characterized by buuy
uiicv. The feverithiieas at the start was
thVresuIl of London selling, hinher rates

for wheat, Hefore U o'clock the entire
lu-t displayed renewed strength. Sugar

within a fraction of 11. The market met
with a serious setback around midday
when a rumor from Washington was put
utloat to the effect that General Fitzhugn

ft'irs. It was state that In his commnnl
ration he had tuken a stand against
Spiiln and that the president would cull

and this added to the feeling of alarm.

SIX PRISONERS GAIN FREEDOM.
Second Jail Deliver)' in Louisville
Within the Lnst Year.
Louisville, Ky., Oct. 2". Another dur
ing; Jail delivery was perpetrated to
night at the county jail shortly after
5.30 o'clock, six desperate prisoners ex
cuping. The delivery was supposed to be a
whoV'sule one, in which every prison
er confined on the third floor of the
old Jail was to gut out, but the watch
fulness of the turnkeys prevented this.
The men who got out are Jacob Brill,
counterfeiter; Harry Brooks, con
victed of robbing a postoftlce, and
Thomas nnd William McKenzle, Thos.
Kelly and Wat Bon Satarly, charged
with house breaking.
They gained their liberty by scrap-
lng the mortar from the bricks in cell
No. 5, letting the bricks fall into the
Interior of the cell, and In this man
ner they got a hole large enough for
them to climb through. After getting
on the roof they fastened a rope and
let themselves' down in a narrow alley
between the Jallyard and an abutment
of the new Jail.
This Is the second Jail delivery in
Louisville within the last year, seven
prisoners having escaped last Christ
mas day.
PUTTIN0 GOLD BACK AGAIN.
8,000,000 Withdrawn From 'Frisco
8ubTreasurr in a Hurry.
San Francisco, Oct. 27. The sub
treasury has just pulled through a
rather serious run, which threatened to
annihilate its gold reserve and leave
It without a dollar with which to re
deem the perfect avalanche of green
hacks that poured in over the counter.
Timely aid came from Chicago ana
other sources, and when the outpour
ing of gold finally stopped the $12,000,-
000 of a few months ago, despite the
frequent additions that have been made
during that period, was reduced to a
bare (4,000.000. That has since been
Increased by the deposit of over $1,000,
00, upon which greenbacks have been
withdrawn, and there Is every Indica
tion that the flurry is over.
Much of the gold withdrawn went
beyond the mountains. The sub-treasuries
here and at New York are the
Inly ones authorized to redeem green
backs. Usually the demand for green
backs Is steady at the sub-treasury
here, as exchange is almost invariably
in favor of New York, and It costs less
to ship greenbacks than gold.
STUMPING TOUR OF MICHIGAN.

Pusouehanna. Oct. 27. After the bal
lots have all been counted, and the '
nnlitleiillv ilead have been burled; ;
when the victors have been enthused j
and laid away their torches and lan
terns nnd banners; and when the faces
of business men begin to shorten, it
will be exasperatingly dull until the
merry Christmas time, will It not?
When the bands are playing and the
frosty air is tilled with ilags and ora
tory, the country wakes up from its
autumn lethrugy. and new blood ap
pears to come coursing through the
veins of the people. There are some
things worse than a political cam
paigndrouth or a cyclone, or a
famine in the land!
FELL 995 FEET.
The truthful Port Jervls Union states
that "Fred L. Buckley, a carpenter,
fell from the spire of St. John's church
to the ground, a distance of ti.li feet,
and is siill confined to his bed." Very
HUely! The only wonder Is that they
found ciiouelt of M: Buckley to put
Into bed. What a bonanza he might j
be to the patent medicine men. 1 leu
ul.5 feet. Two boxes of Bonnet's Sorsa
parllln cured me of that tired feeling."
"I have taken Purple pills for pale
people, nnd I can fall 995 feet without
spraining my liver." And what tall
churches they have In Port Jedvls!
The people evidently step from the top
of the spires right into heaven!
RALLIED 'ROUND THE BEER.
I:ev. John Maryland, formerly pas
tor of the Susquehanna Presbyterian
church, but now pastor of the Congre
gational church In Franklin, Delaware
county. N. Y., had a lively experience
a few days since. The Democrats had
a rally, and a crowd came over from
Cnudlllit to help along the cause. As
Franklin is a no-license villnge, the
L'nadllla people brought along a keg
ot beer, which they tapped on one of
tli- public streets, and proceeded to
tally 'round the keg. When the fes
tivities were at their hei;-ht. Mr. Mars
land appeared, nnd at once proceeded
t.i knock out the faucet of the keg.
The beer was spilled Into the road. The
crowd vowed vengeance, but they took
It out In vociferation. They endea
vored to secure a warrant for Mr.
Mai sland's arrest, but were unsuccess
ful. Mr. Mursland made the matter
the subject of his sermon on the fol
lowing Sabbath.

SEVERAL MATTERS.
The Tunkhannock New Age hastens
to Inform a waiting world that "the
mineral water from the Carpenter Hoi
loy oil well has been analyzed, and
found to contain more Ingredients than
a druggist's prescription." Hurry and
bottle it! It ought to be nasty enough
to kill or cure.
Advanced thinkers are beginning to
believe in the reconciliation of, worsh p
and recreation. They should cease to
pull In opposite directions.
Why do the geniuses who have In
vented flying machines talk so much
about It in the newspapers? Why
don't they Just fly?

British Journalists and statesmen. She
Is also for free trade, but if Bryan Is
the choice, with htm will come free sil
ver, which England cannot swallow.
In either case, she Is in the dilemma
of the colored brother who proposed to
take to the woods.
