.SUH(iueluiiina,Nov. 2!. Spvornl wr-eli-i
jgo a. wunile.-i'liijr Swiss, nccoinpanied
y a. nerfortniiiR bear came to the
ionic of J.'armer Wolcott, near Burn
(ootl, and i-ugKuil Micltci and food,
which were readily granted. The pecu
liar antics of the educated bear amply
repaid the tanner and his wife for
their ho.spltallty. Tho Swiss was suf
fering from a mill-shot wound received
in Scranton while defending the bear
afiainst a Rang of young hoodlum:.
The ne.t day the man asked permis
sion to leave the boar while he went
to a New York hospital to undergo an
operation for the extraction of tin
bullet. Farmer Woleott had no ob
jection and the Kwlss departed.
The bear slept in a wood shed next
to the kitchen. Jn the small houis of
Monday morning the entire household
was awakened by an unearthly giowl
ing and screaming. The men went be
low, wheio they found tiie bear, armed
with a churn dasher, dancing a can
can uppn the kitchen lloor. He wan
.unmistakably drunk. He had descend
ed to the cellar and pulled tho spigot
from a barrel of hard cider, and, while
the liquid ran Into the depressions of
the cellar bottom, lie had filled hlmseir
to the ears. After a. struggle, in which
the stove and a table Idled with dishes
ei-p wrecked, bruin was tied with
ropes and rolled out of doors to sober
up.
Two hours later, as the Eric's: light
ning expiess was Hearing Forest City,
Engineer "Hub" "Wood peered ahead in
the gray 'light of the early morning to
see the huge bear, with a fence stake
in his paws, sitting upright and defi
ant on the track, a few roads ahead.
Tho engineer put on a tull head of
steam and in a moment the bear was
struck squarely and thrown high into
the air, firmly landing upon the pilot.
Bruin, amazed and thoroughly so
bered, hung to a flag-staff for dear
life. He rode thus for a mile and,
when the train slowed up a bit, he
shambled off and went rolling down
'an embankment into a Sdoor-yaid.
When Wood looked back lie saw the
bear waving aloft in triumph a red
flannel shirt which he had pulled from
a elothes-llns. And tho train sped on.

beglnlng nor the end, however, waa ao well de

made it. difficult to anal re the tone extent dur
ing ii period of pronounced reaction, which do
".eloped after tho opening, and an equally pro
nounccil iciovery befoie the close. The close
Itself was reactionary and weak, under the li.
tliifnec of a violent break of Vt points In An
il lean Steel and Wlie. That stock got up to
CI in tho general rally of the nuikel lint
plunged downward to 1C4 in n fen1 minutes anil
cloied about there with heavy ofTcrlngs allll com

aerved to unsettle sentiment very considerably
at (ho close. Tho bear conlngent auecectlctl in
pretty well gttlng Ihe upper hand early In
Ihe day. The market opened with price cur
rcnts moving In whirling eddies. There was
continued stiong absorption ill somo of Joater
day's strong slocks, the local tractions and St.
Paul being conspicuous. Later a sliong demand
del eloped for Chesapeake and Ohio on liming
aild lo he for Philadelphia account. This stock
moved up an extreme 2?a- Thl movement, how
ever, was not sufftccnt .to discourage the proht
faking and bear prcniuo, width had been more
or lessi manifest, esieclally tn the steel stocss.
from the opening and the whole market fell
away without much support to the lowest of the
day. The tally was Inaugurated In hi. Paul.
That stock was carried to l.W and the other
Grangers, Sugar, the local traction stocks and
Cleneral lllectllc made the readiest response. An
effort was made to continue the movement bj
the tlnm honored device of bidding up the
Vanderbllts, but this proved unavailing In face
of tho acute weakness shown by the steel stocks.
