Excepting Brooklyn Transit Only
Small Gains Seared.
New York. July 27.-The room traders
succeeded lt> putting prices up for a time
to-day, but they drifted downwards again
towards the close of the day, and left
only small net gains except In Brooklyn
Rapid Transit. This stock was decidedly
the loader of the speculation, and was
let ly dealt in on the strength of Insin
uating rumors that the yearly statement,
v i loh Is yet to see print, wMll show larger
t imings than has been anticipated. The
stovk made an extreme rise of over 3
!’ inis under thla stimulating Influence,
end helped the whole market. It re-
I eed a point in the late reaction when
’h" traders were taking profits on the
day's rise.
•'‘utsar. which came next In point of ao
'lvlty, did not fare so well. It got up
n ' one time ns much as 194 on the cxpec
-1 ion that the firmness of the raw sugar
hr "ket foreshadowed another advance In
ret ned sugar. But the late reaction en
''rely wiped out the rise. The railroad
•'*' continued extremely dull and narrow.
1 're sharp gains shown by a handful of
ks h:ul little Influence on the rest of
,hn lift which hung sluggishly back.
r: lins of over n point were established In
1 ' fa dozen stocks at the midday high
I' V <l But none of these were fully main
tained, and nothing more than fractions
*' brained at the close of the day. The
hfongth of Baltimore and Ohio was ap
parently due to tho covering by shorts.

Burlington was marked up on assertions
that the statement of June earnings would
show better, net results than has been
foretold. St. Paul. Louisville, Union Pa
cific and Missouri Pacific were the only
railroad stocks showing any notable
strength.
The steel stocks moved uncertainly pend
ing announcements of the agreement ar
rived at by the Chicago conference.- The
local traction stocks were strong in sym
pathy with Brooklyn Rapid Transit and
Consolidated Gas more than recovered
yesterday’s decline. So far as general
conditions were an influence the market
was helped by the less despondent views
regarding the fate of the envoys in Pe
kin. held by foreign speculators. This
was largely a sentimental influence as
dealings here for foreign account were in
significant. No gold was engaged for ex
port to-morrow, and in fact, demand
sterling fell off a fraction. But it re
covered a fraction in Paris, and the rate
for call loans declined in London. London
discounts were firm, and the belief re
mains general that further gold will go
out next week.
A favorable bank statement seems prob
able to-morrow owing to the continued
inflow of currency from the interior. Es
timates of the gain by the banks on this
account run up nearly *3.000.000. The gain
on subJtreaeury operations is reduced to
trivial proportions, in spite of the an
ticipation by the government of the Au
gust interest payments. The receipt at
San Francisco to-day of $2,500,000 in gold
can he made immediately available to
the New York banks by the system of
transfer, allowed by the treasury depart
ment. But it will not figure in this week’s
hank statement. It is thought probable
that loons may have been further re
duced by repayment of German obligations
to this market.
The bond market continued dull, but
the tone was rather firmer. Total sales,
par value, $1,030,000.
United States 3’s registered declined 74.
and new 4’s coupon 74 per cent, in the

Capt. Shaw has appealed over and over
again to the proper authorities for the re
moval or nt least Hie abatement of th©
nuisance, but no action has yet been tak
en beyond a hasty inspection and limited
experiments. \Lleut. Markham of • lie
United Slates Engineer Corps, in the office
at St. Augustine, says there is no money
available to use in removing tho pest. Tim
government propose*, however, to build a
hyacinth boat to aid in the proposed exter
mination; meanwhile some experiment*
will I** tried on the Upper St. John's- with
chemical destroyers' of the hyacinths.
Lieut. Markham, who evidently knows
very little alout (he magnitude of the pest,
suggests that steamboat and sawmill men
send out gongs with scythes and cut loose
the interlocked masse* so that In detached
bunches they will float down the river and
out Into salt water where they Will be
destroyed. There is very little comfort
in this suggestion, fdr the detaching plan
Is old und lias proved a more temporary
and expensive method of relief, ns have
all other simple arid inexpensive plans
adopted heretofore.
Now*, there Is but one thing to be done,
end that must be done a* soon as Con
gress assembles. At least $200,000 must ba
appropriated to Inaugurate the work of
final extermination, and as the Work pro
gresses other large ums will have to be
added. It is no boy's play—-no holiday af
fair, but the magnitude of the evil and
Its rapid growth call for immediate ac
tion. and that to be final extermination.
There Is but one wny to accomplish this
much deaf red object. The work must b*
started at the very source of the Bt. John’s
river and every creek and stream and
cove, etc., from that source lo the o< an
must be cleaned out. Not a single hya
cinth must be left to propagate anew
crop. For myself I would not take the
contract for $300,000, for f urn convinced
that the job finally' completed In a proper
manner Will, If undertaken, cost the gov
ernment a million dollars or very near
that amount. This i* a Wg sum. but tho
St. John’s river is a big river, big enter
prises line its banks and demand an open
water course whenever needed. This Is
no hasty view* of the matter, but the re
sult of long and thorough investigation.

CHOCKED IIY A LIZARD.
If Caine Up In Her Throat Time and
Agra In.
From the New York Press.
Marcus Hook, Pa., July 24.—While
drinking water several weeks ago Mrs.
Anna M. Jones swallowed a small lizard.
The reptile lived and thrived Inside of the
woman, and after a few day* made Its
presence felt. Several times It climbed up
Into her throat. Physicians were cal ed,
and every possible means for dislodging
the lizard were tried, but without ovall.
The reptile successfully resisted all the
devices of the doctors to bring It out.
Medicine* were administered which It
was thought would kill It, but Mrs. Jones
continued to be aware of it* presence lu
her stomach, and could describe Its move
ments from hour to hour. Sometimes she
felt the lizard dangerously close to her
throat again, and she lived In constant
fear that Itv one of these upward excur
sions of the creature she would be choked
to death.
This fear gjew upon her, and her men
ial cond*£(pv> became pitiable. She would
awake a*, tne middle of the night and cry
out tTiat she was choking, and then be re
lieved by the departure of the lizard for
other portions of her body. After thcee
frequent scares the woman became ex
ceedingly nervous.
Last night she complained of a choking
sensation. A physician w* summoned
hurriedly,, but before his urrlval the wo
man had died In great agony. The strang
est part of the case Is that the do-tors
were able to find ho evidence of strangu
lation. All autopsy may throw more light
upon the mystery by locating Iho where
abouts of the lizard. The autopsy will be
held to-morrow.
Physicians are divided In their opinions.
Some believe that the lizard did actually
try to force his way to the outer world
again through the woman’s throat, and
actually choked her to death. There are
others, however, who think that Mrs.
Jones dread of a violent death had so tak
en possession of her that It affected her
heart, snd that she died of heart failure
while Imagining that she was choking.
