New York. Ah* 11.—Except for rime rather active rolling of Sugar and Peo ple's Gas there was not a particle of an imation In to-day's stock market. The sympathetic effect of the weakness ol these two specialties wiped out the slight opening gains In some of the Internation al railroad stocks. Again at the close there was sufficient demand from the short interests, which was averse to leaving contracts uncov et ed over the three day* holiday, to stif fen the prices of some of the railroads, hut the general lone was easy, owing to a late drive against People's Oar. Among those to show a notable firmness were Southern Pacific. New York Central and Ualtitnore and Ohio. The weakness of People's Gas gave a striking Illustration of the lack of consistency In the mind* of professional operators. The other day this stock advanced on the report that a newly organised company In Chl-wgo "as In control of Interest* friendly to People s Gas The professional Intelli gence by to-day had arrived at the con* ■ iuslon that the formation of this friend ly company must be the signal for war upon the Ogden Gas Company, the rival of the People's. The stock was accord ingly sold Industrially at an advance of 2l In Its price. The movement in Sugar wa* about equally Independent of Ihe news of Ihe day and was appoiently due •o realising on the advance tn the refined *lu< t which wa made yesterdav The port taken by the professional ele ment was based on scrutiny of the source of the orders In the stock, and when the trader* thought they ooutd trace some selling orders to Inside sources they trailed on and sold.

She was docked at the Cen tral's wharves. The bark Silicon. Capt. Jensen, which has been engaged In the cryolite trade for several years, left Fair Isle recently on her perilous voyage 40 the Ice-bound shores ot Greenland. This Is Ihe la.-t vessel to be dispatched thla season and to reach her destination at Ivlgtut the silicon will have to plough her way through the •> or more miles of Ice that encircle the shore. The bark Calcium Is well on her woy co <he aame destination. Lumber tonnage Is wanted for the River Platte for both Gulf and Eastern loading, and rates for same are firm, says the Philadelphia Time-. Weal India and coastwise lumber tonnage Is In steady re quest, but the offerings are exceedingly light, owner* preferring lo accept less re munerative rates to other points rather than send their vessels South ul this sea son of -the year. In steam lonnuge a moderate business wa# reported, with rates showing strong Iti all departments. A Halifax dispatch, dated Aug. 17. says: steamer La Grande Duchess*. for Port Hawkeabury and Charlottetown, before r, |>ortrd returned to |>or. reports when two miles of Egg Rock, the tag shaft on the port side broke and the propeller dropped off. Ait Inspecdlon was made this evening by the underwriter*, and It W!t* decided to allow the steamer to pro reed under one engine lo New York, via Roston. and be docked, as It Impossible 10 secure the dry dock here. The Hawkea hury and Charlottetown cargo has been discharg'd and will be forwarded by the Slenrner Halifax Wednesday, The liurhease will leave here Thursday after noon for Bouton, and Ihe repair* will oc cupy a couple of months.

T 111 ANTI I. A (NO TOM) IH BL Desperate F.nesusler Hetweeu Two Reptiles In Tesas. From Ihe Chicago Chronicle The larantuln and ihe horrred Irml live In the same climate. They are usually on good terms, but once In a while trouble comes beiween them and then there Is a due) to Ihe death. A witness to a recent tight between these rare anlr.ials describe* the unusual sight vtvldly, thus: "In tha early summer, while herding a hunch of caille In Ihe northern panhandle of Texas, I wa* allilng on my pony about * Indolent a* could !• when a strong aernt of formic add was whiffed on the wind lo me A few feet away was a large bed of anla, In which a horned toad sat bushy engaged at a, meal of the ant people. The toad paid but little attention 10 Ihe attack* made upon him but nta away as though he had been with Dr Tan ner on a forty-day fast and had Just ar rived at ltelmonlco'a. "Presently a large brown tnrantnla came leaping toward the ant led. as though frightened. He halted a momeni by the load Bach looked nt ffie oilier ns though some apology should la' made The load was the first lo take offense and de mand a reckoning. Ha ran ai the taran tula with open mouth The great spider leaped Into Ihe air ahoul a foot and de scended upon ibe toad’s head, blllng him over Ihe eye. A strange little cry of l>ain rams from the horny duelist. The ha 1 tie was on In earnest. "The bite made the toad alck and for an Instant he halted aa If he were dased. A little distance from the ant bed a email tongue cactus was growing The toad ran to It and began sucking the Jute* (rum a wound made in tha thick leaf. Then he re turned lo the conflict with renewed ener gy. The tarantula lost a limb In the on set. "A third time was Ihe duel renewed. The tarantula lost another limb Beady/drops of a viscid liquid stood on Ihe tips of tho load's horn*. The leap* Into the air were not repeated by Ihe tarantula, but wheth er It was on account of ibe loss of limbs or the poison-Upped horn* of Ihe toad can never Ira known. Each stood facing the other some seconds as though seeking an advantage. During the armistice the ant* set about Inflicting a few wounds on the flat stomach of the tarantula and the toed. Neither seemed to care now for the bha# of the ants, but eyed each other with a fiercene>- more lhan human. In an un guarded moment the tarantula leaped for ward and Inflicted a wound upon the lip of Ihe toad. "The struggle continued. Half of the legs were cui from Ihe l<ody of tha tarantula.
