FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL Review of the Week—A Fairly Active Speculation in Stocks. THE GOLD AND MONEY MARKETS. WALL STREET, Sunpay, Dec, 15, 1878. While paterfamilias in ninety per cent of the domi- Gils of the land is performing the almost religious duty of giving a weekly wind to the kitchen clock, ‘we proceed to the equally important task of winding up the financial events of the past se’nnight through the medium of a brief review. There were fewer matters of interest than in the previous week, but speculators made the most of them, such as they wero, and by dint of hard work maintained a pretty lively speculation. ‘Tho aggregate of transactions was about the same, though in a general way fluctua- tions were more rapid aud prices more irregular, Striking a balance at the close of yesterday's busi- ness we find for the week a loss in Western Union, Delaware and Lackawanna, Burlington and Quincy, the St. Paul and Michigan Cen- tral, a slight gain in the Northwesterns, and ‘nu equilibrium in Lake Shore. Western Union bas again left its supporters in the lurch, the Execu- tive Committee having met and simply declared a fividend of 1% per cent, without touching upon the subject of astock distribution at all, There was a lingering hope that 2 per cent would be squeezed out of the quarter, but the directors adjourned and made no sign. Asainatter of fact it is the bears who have obtained the two per cent and not the bulls, collect- ing it cash on the nail, too, through the fall in price which has succeeded the meeting. Holders of Bur- lington and Quincy were placed in still more uncom- fortable straits, being forced to see their property decline from 111 to 10514 and finish almost without vecovery. An additional issue of 27,000 shares of stock, the proceeds of which are to be used for the construction of a new road, steel rails and new cars, was regarded as diluting the strength of the road to tho extent marked by the fall in price. From “water” the transition to “washing” is easy and natural, and of ‘this latter art the Northwesterns afforded conspicuous examples, Every day of the week was a “Monday” tn the light of this avocation, so persistently was it tarried on. Of course it was all laid to Gould, who, ft is imagined, is endeavoring to clean up his short account by washing down prices. On Saturday after- goon the Northwesterns were traded in “dividend off’ and, under a strong support, were made to tlose at the top prices of the week. The features of the coal carriers were smutched frqm first to last, being only varied as to degrees of blackness by fre- quent and rapid changes in quotations.e An improb_ able story that an attempt would be made to break the Morris and Essex lease rendered this security at once excessively weak and unusually active, while the almost certain abandonment of tho combination and the lower prices for coal exerted a depressing influ- ence upon all the anthracite properties alike. Among the railroads Michigan Central and the St. Pauls were heavy and lower. Ths decline in the first, how- ever, was stopped by the interposition of Mr. Van_ derbilt and in the latter by the upward turn which prevailed in the general market at the close of busi- ness. There were no points of interest to invite attention in other stocks, business being limited and fuctuations unimportant. ‘The opening prices on Monday were as follows: — Delaware and Hudson, 34}¢; Western Union, 9534; Pacific Mail, 18; Ohio and Mississippi, 71b; Lake Bhore, 683s; Morris and Essex, 7614; Northwestern 463;; Northwestern preferred, 76%; St. Paul, 351¢; St. Paul preferred, 723;; Delaware, Lackawanna and Western, 42; Erie Railway, 1!

Last Saturday Sheriff Cooper, of Suffolk county, took into custody Bernard Smith, of Islip, on allega- tions connected with the robbery of his store on Thanksgiving night. Smith and his wife went toa village called Bohemia and attended a ball, and the noxt day the report went forth that during the night the store and their living apartments had been robbed of a large quantity of goods and $300, A day or two after the robbery some boys found ina piece of woods a heavy box and a spade and shovel. ‘Lhe box was perfectly dry, notwithstanding there hod been some hard rains since the robbery, and the presence of the spade and shovel was looked upon as imeaning that the box was to be buried. It is all that the goods in the store and those stolen had been purchased on time and the payments were duo when the robbery occurred, ‘Che next day Smith notified his creditors of the robbery, and'while he was on this business Sheriff Cooper took possession of what goods remained and nailed up the store doors and windows. In the box found were ten large bundles of dry oods, and searches since made by the Sheriff have discovered more goods in hiding. It is believed that the box was first hidden in a haystack in Smith's yard, judging from its condition aud t rture in the hay. A demand for other ae! goods resulted in their surrender to the Sherif!. Smith is charged with selling liquoxs without @ license, | temperance gospel, INVISIBLE SPIRIT OF WINE. MURPHY'S TEMPRRANCE WORK IN THE SEVENTH STRELE METHODIST PPISCOPAL CHURCH. In the Seventh Stroet Methodist Episcopal Church, near Third avenue, yesterday morning, Rev. J. L. Gilder held service. Forty-seven men gave in their names to be converts of temperance, and seventy persons proclaimed that they were converts of the In ‘the afternoon, at three o’clock, Mr. Francis Murphy was in attendance at the church, and the services were commenced by the singing of ‘He Will Hide Me” by Mr, aud Mrs. Wilson. Mr. Murphy said:—‘I am glad to know the quality of mercy is not strained; that the people of this great city have rolled the stone of unbelief away. Llost a boy, but 1 believe I shall see him again, that I shall know him and he willknow me.” (There was ex- quisite pathos in Mr. Murphy's voice at this point, and there was scarcely a dry eye in the house.) “I think,” continued the speaker, “that there are left enough human diamonds that can be reset by the sweet influence of God's love until the time when man stands regen- erated and emancipated.” At the love feast Brother Parker got up and said a few words. Knecling down on the floor, in a dramatic way he thanked God for the way he had been saved. Mr. W. W, Burdine was introduced and made a very affecting address. Another man said, “My name is on that rolland I want it to remain there.” A gentleman from Lincoln, Neb. (Mr. Godfrey), said a man organ- ized a Temple of Honor in his town because he found x saloon keeper was setting out trees at his own ex- pense. Lincoln contains now 11,000 inhabitants, there are only four saloons and each one pays a li- cense of $1,000, ‘Mr. Chauncey Schaffer stood upon the platform and made u very eloquent 8} He said there wero laws of action and reaction. The man who tries to bless others will bless himself. My idea of man’s dignity is to be engaged for man’s good; if you are not working for your fellow man the devil is setting some snare for you, I would not exchange the super- intendency of the Battle Row Sunday School to go into the United States Senate. AMERICAN TEMPERANCE UNION—PHILIP PHIT- LIPS AND A SERVICE OF SONG. In the absence of Brother Mundy, Brother Vallan, at Clarendon Hall, yesterday, introduced Philip Phillips, the Gospel singer, who, he said, had per. mission to run the services after his own fashion, Brother Phillips’ first act was to request the choir to leave the platform and go down with the andience, where they and the audience, which was quite large, participated in the service of song led by Brother Phillips, as well as chanting the responses to certain Scriptural passages, which Brother Phillips read in a very solemn voice, The musical selections included “How Long, O Lord,” “Work, for the Night Is Com- ing” and “Self-Decetved.”” The latter was a song which described the feelings of the rum drinker at various stages in his carecr, from the time when he is supposed to exclaim :— My heart is light and froe, ‘ My step is firm and strong, to the sixth degree of his downward course of whiskey drinking, when, surrounded by the ‘Brook- lyn boys,” lie is supposed to exclaim:— I'm safe! But am I safe? ‘Oh, what is that I see ? A yawning gulf bofore me ties, A drunkard’s grave for me! Forme! forme! Ob, suvo! Brave comrades, hear my call; Stretch out hand to rescue me— Itromblol shiver! fail! 0, alas, is sufo! But all who take the glass, ‘And drink the brandy, rum and gin will foel its sting at Yast. Brother Ferguson, secretary, made the announce- ment that Gilmore’s Garden had beon secured for a course of lectures; that Widow Van Cott would lead off on Tuesday evening next, followed by Brother Talmage on Sunday atternoon, aud Brother Henry Ward Beecher within the next three weeks. The ser- vices concluded with a brief address by Rev. Brother Remington, the Burling slip street preacher. GOSPEL TEMPERANCE SERVICES. “I wouldn’t give one snap of my finger for a war- ranty decd of Broadway to-night if I hadn't the grace of God in my heart,”’ exclaimed Mr. Sawyer while conducting the gospel temperance service be- fore an audience that filled the body of the house, the galleries, stage anda private boxes of the Park ‘Theatre last evening. He had taken as the ground- work of his discourse the words of Jesus Christ, applied to the Samaritan at tho well— “Whosoever drinketh of that water shall thirst again, but whosoever drinketh of the water of life shall never thirst.” During his discourse the speaker illustrated his remarks by quoting wonderful instances of confirmed drunkards being converted to temperance and Christianity which had come under his own observation. He in- vited those present to come and drink of the living ‘Oh, it pays to drink living water,” he said, in the life that now is as well in that which is to come. If you don’t find it at once by asking, continue asking until you do receive it. Of what avail are earthly riches without this water of life? May God help you to come and drink of it.” Mr. Sawyer then aunounced that an after meeting would be held, and all who felt like drawing nearer to God might remain. After an impressive prayer a few only left their seats, the great body of the audience remaining. The speaker having invited the repeating of such passages of scripture as any of those present might recollect, several responded, most of them being young men who have recently been conyerted uncer the ministrations of Mr. Sawyer. At length a man in the audience quoted the follow- ing:—“‘Come let us reason together, saith the Lord. ‘Though your sins be as scarlet they shall be white a8 snow; and though they be red like crimson they shall be as wool.” “That gentleman,” said Mr. Sawyer, to the au- dience, “is a Jew who has lately come to a knowledge of the truth as it is in Jesus;” then addressing the person who had just spoken, remarked, “You Delieve you have found the Messiah, Mr. B—?” The latter replied, “I do, sir.’ Mr. Sawyer then said, ‘‘What reason have you for believing so?” Here the convort rose to his feet and modestly answered, “Because I believe that Jesus Christ died to save sin- ners, of whom I am one.” E NATIONAL TEMPERANCE INSTITUTE. In the large hall of Cooper Union, in the afternoon, a large audience, considering the weather, gathered to take part in the usual exercises. Mr. Gibbs, as usual, presid and after the singing of a hymn Mrs. Charlotte Woodbury read some passages of Scripture, after which the president introduced to the audience the “rescued orphan boy” whom he had found on the staircase of o newspaper office some eight or ten days ago, sick and forlorn, Mr. Gibbs spoke harshly about the Newsboys’ Lodging House. So far as the boy was concerned, # gentleman in the andi- ence, named R. ©. Oliver, of Spartanburg, 8. C., adopted him. The mecting then wonton in the usual way. The Rev. Dr. G. J. White, of Brooklyn, who had been advertised to make an address, was absent, owing to # funeral taking place from his church, but his substitute was the Bev. W. A. Buckley, who admitted that he had had ex- perience with the intoxicating cup and even yet liked the taste of liquor. The speaker made some very quiet but sensible remarks relative to the absolute inutility of indulging in Bae. He blamed the rum- sellers for all the hardships of the drunkard and looked upon them to be the root of all the evil in this terrible war of the alcoholic demon against rectitude and peace. He would not allow the rumseller to have ayote. Acounle of recitations by Professor closed the exercises, “GET THEE BEHIND ME, SATAN.” “You ought to have more senso, George. You should not abuse an officer when he’s on post. ‘What was the trouble?” said the Judge of tho Jeffor- son Market Court yestorday to Oficer Ringler. “Well, Yer Honor, this yere defendant kem up to me when I was on my beat, an’ ses he to mo, ses he, ‘Come an’ take a balll’ Ses Ito him, ses I, ‘I don’t want vo ball!’ Then ses he agin, ‘Say! Can't you stand @ booze?’ An'I told him agin that I didn’t want no boos. But he wouldn’t be satistied. He ses to me, ses ho, ‘Oh! fire mein!’ An’ I wouldn't. ‘Then, because I started off to patrol my post an’ get away from him, aa lsee his keg was pooty full, ho began to abuse me an’ call mo naines, There was nothing ele for it, so 1 tak him in, Yer Honor.” “O'Connor, don't you know bettor than that?” “quoth Judge Morgan in surprise. “Well, [don’t kuow, Yer Honor,” humbly mum- bied the prisoner. “It I letyou go home now I want you to remem- ber one thing—never ask @ police officer to drink on ost, for they never were known to drink on post, ‘ou're discharged.” ‘The prisoner left the court thankful, but sceptical, “RED” LEARY AND “BUTCH” M’CARTHY, When the “watch” was discharged by Judgo Morgan yesterday morning Captain Byrnes entered Jeflerson Market Police Court accompanied by John, alias “Red,” Leary, In the vestibule and on the sidewalks were several officers of the Fifteenth pre- cinct in citizens’ clothes, distributed so as to prevent any attempt at a rescue or escape. John, alias “Butch,” McCarthy was brought into Court by the private entrance, Captain Byrnes then stepped up to the bar and said:—“Your Honor, I wish you'd re- mand these prisoners until to-morrow afternoon at two o’clock, as the janitress of the Manhattan Bank building ie old and feeble and could not be brought here to-day. Other persons, too, whom I want to contront with these prisoners I have not been able to, NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, DECEMBER 16, 1878—TRIPLE SHEET. get to court this morning. If you remand the | peso until to-morrow afternoon I shall be in # position to procure those who may identity them or either of them as having had something to do with the Manhattan Bank burglary.”” “Then you haven't got evidence against these men so far, Captain?” said Judge Morgan. “No, sir; but I think the matter will be cleared u; if you send the prisoners back as I have requested. ‘The men that went into that job wore masks, and it will be hard to identify them, but we shall si “Gall the prisoners up here!"” Leary and McCarthy stepped quickly upon the stand and looked boldly at the magistrate, who said to them:—Men, you will have to go back to the sia- tion house until two P. M. to-morrow, when your case will be heard.” + The police and the captives left the court at once, MURDERED IN COLD BLOOD, JOHN MALLOY TMACHEROUSLY STALBED BY PHILIP WHITNEY, WHOM HE HAD sUCCORED FROM CHARITABLE MOTIVES—-THE ASSASSLN ARRESTED, The murder of John Malloy yesterday morning by the man whom he had taken from the gutters and provided for out of his own limited means, is another commentary on what ingratitude will do, especially when it is inspired by intemperance. The man who lost his life was a good-natured, hard-work- ing fellow, who, for fifteen years, was employed in Hawkins’ brewery in Forty-first street and who was generally liked by those he had dealings with. Some of his earnings he had devoted to the purchase of little store at No. 460 West Forty-first street, where in his absenco his wite dispensed groceries to the neigh- bors and kept candies, knick-knacks and the like. Some time ugo Philip Whitney chanced to come along that way. He wasa man they had known in other days, and they were moved to pity his forlorn con- dition. He was ragged and dissipated, enfcebled by excesses and with a scorbutic face that told a tale of habitual intemperance. He had got out.of em- | ployment and was going about a ragged, homeless tramp when he came to the house of the Malloys. The latter gave him shelter and a bite to eat, and Whitney, with the assurance common to his class, came to regard their assistance as a right he conid demand, not as a privilege they were bestowing. They hel him along all the same, and for the last six months Whitney has sat down to his meals in the little room at the back of Malloy’s store with the greatest regularity. To keep him employed Malloy looked around among his acquaintances, and at last succeeded in getting the man work in McDonneli’s coal yard in Washington street. There he has been engaged as a driver for some timo, but whatever money he mado he hastened at once to squander in drink. Once or twice Malloy called him to task, but only administered a mild rebuke, to which Whitney never gave heed, He continued to live under the other’s roof as before, but never troubled hims about compensation, and when he came home on Sat- urday night and Malloy began advising him to take care of his money, he flared up 4nd assumed a bravado air. At supper the conversation took an un- pesent turn, and Whitney became still more yio- lent, applying some very unpleasant epithets to Malloy and conducting himself in a manner that was offensive to all the family, THK HOST’ PATINCK GIVES OUT AT LAST. Atlast Malloy lost patience and ordered him out. He refused to go at first, aud stood threatening at the door till Mrs. Malloy pushed him out. There had bopn a neighbor named Michael Degnan present at the time, and he remained with Malloy through the night, chatting till the clock struck twelve. Then the latter intimated that it was time to close the store and went outside to put the shutters up. When that was attended to he and Degnan went out to- ether, and he had stooped down to see il the coal ox was fastened when & man stepped out of the hall- way next door, where he had beon lurking, brushed past Degnan and confronted him. TREACHEROUSLY SLAIN. There were warm words between the two men, an angry threat or two, and then as Mrs. Malloy, who had hurried out in alarm, reached the door she suw her husband stagger into the middle of the street, throw up his hands and fall flat upon the ground. Whitney was standing at the gutter, and as he looked at his victim he muttered, “Damn you, you won't get up ina hurry again.” With that he turned up the street and made off. The woman screamed; Degnan, who was still standing there, seemed dumbfounded and looked on passively. | It was only when Officers Burke and Rielly cathe along that Malloy was lifted up. He was already dead and the pavement undernesth him was dabbied with blood om a deep knife wound in the groin. Atthe first plunge the femoral artery had been severed and the man had died at once. There was quite a painful scene on the strect when Mrs. Malloy learned that her husband's life had been taken by the man who owed them so much, and the officers left her in charge of the body, which they had taken indoors till the Coroner could be notified Meuntime they arrested Degnan, who was the only person present at the time of the affray, and brouglit him to the Twentieth precinct police station. Ser- geant Havens was at the desk, and he subjected the prisoner to # rigid course of questioning, but the man, either through bewilderment or for the purpose of misleading, told so many contrary stories that it was impossible to make his testimony of any avail. HELD AS A WITNESS. The sergeant, however, concluded to hold him as a witness, and had him locked up while he sent Otficers Ryan and Doyle to investigate the case. Thoy ps oer iat ascertained thet it was Whitney who was the offender. A pocket knife was found on Forty- first street which is supposed to be the weapon used by the assassin. Sergeant Havens, by Captain Wash- burn’s directions, had the following despatch sent out: Genmnat Avaus, 4:45 P. M.—Arrest for_murdor Phillip Whitney, aged thirty-two, stout, five foot tem inches, roun shoulders, red, carbunclod faco; sandy hair, small, red mustache: thiek lips, old dark yvorcoat, black pants, Derby hat. Drives « coul cart for McDonnell, of No. 0 Washing- ton atroet; shabby clothes, ARREST OF THE MURDERER. ‘This, however, was ot no avail, and at noon yester- day, when Coroner Woltman came to make an au- topsy, the murderer was still at large. Later on, however, Degnan, who had recovered his composure somewhat, was taken off by Officers Ryan and Doyle, and all of Whitney’s hannts were visited. They were about to give up the quest and look after him else- where, when they stumbled upon the man himself in Washington street barroom, stupid with drink and utterly unconscious of what was going on about him. It was useless to question him, as he could make no coherent reply, so they took him to the station house, where he was locked up to await a return of con- sciousness. Meantime Coroner Woltman had made one examina- tion of the body of John Malloy, which revealed a stab wound of the left le one inch in length, pass- ing upward and inward to the extent of three inches, severing the femoral artery at its origin and terminat- in the cavity of the pelvis. Death was caused by hemorrhage from said wound. Malloy was fifty-three years of age. wife and two children. MISLED BY MORPHINE. Tho spectators at Jefferson Market Court crancd their necks to catch a glimpse of the lady whom Officer Flandgan, of the Ninth precinct, arraigned yesterday. She wore black silk and sealskin, and was charged with having stolen a lot of jewelry from Mrs. Moran, of West Washington place, and sold or ex- changed it at a store on Saturday. “Mrs. Moran, you sweer that the statement in this complaint, as made by you, is true—put your right hand on the book, madam—is truo, so help you——”" repeated the Judge, when he was interru; “Oh, Judge! Judge!” said the prisoner, weeping and ciasping her hands, “don’t! don’t! I’ am a re- 8) le moarried woman, but havo been suffering with afaco acho for two or three days, and was under the influence of morphine when I took that property. Oh, dear! oh, dear! I did not know whatI was doing, and I don’t remember now, Your Honor, whether I took the watch and coral or not.” ‘Che prisoner's husband and _motber were called up to her wide, and were desply affected _by the ignoimin- ious predicament of theirrelative. The property had undoubtedly been fonnd in the store, the clerk of which was positive she bad them to him, Mrs. Moran said that the defendant and her husband boarded with her, und part of the property was found in their room. A scene of distress and pleading followed between the three women, the prisoner claiming in plaintive accents that she was not conscious of what she had done, becauwe she was under the influence of the drug. The good natured little complainant was melted to tears, and besought the Court to let her withdraw the charge. “All right, madame,” said Judge Morgan; “mor- phine has saved her, Nevertheless 1 tvci satisfied that it did not make her steal. And, Mrs. Moran, tend pro) will be returned to the store that a it, and if you want it you must repurchase it. Snoh is the consequence of your lenit He leaves a DEAD AND UNKNOWN. Officer Nealis, of the Fourteenth precinot, carly yea- terday morning, was called into the hallway of No. 47 Mott street, where a woman was lying prostrate. She was a wretched, starved looking creature, who had seomingly crept in for shelter and expired there, When tue officer found her sho was already stiff and cold, ‘The body was taken to the Morgite, where Cor oner Woltman viewed it, Death was doubtless due to destitution and drink. A brown striped dress and shawl, striped stockings, no hat or shoes, light com- plexion and black hair are the marks for identifica- tion supplied by the police description. TOOK IT OUT IN SPITE. “Drunk and disorderly, eh?” “Yes, Yer Honor!"’ replied the officer to Judge Mor- gan at Jefferson Market yesterday afternoon. “Why did you get drunk, John?” “Well, you see, Jedge, a feller owed me $75 and we $9 50 last night, after making m nm a receipt {ba Tt mode tas co baat to Aa he-denonred 150 out of that fifty conte thet i got drunk for spite,” “Vive dollars or five days.” be OUR COMPLAINT BOOK.

To THe Epivor or THE HERALD: — For the past week we have every day looked to see our over-crowded ash barrels emptied, but in vain, Notacart has made its appearance on Fighty: street, between Lexington and Fourth avenne: that time. A WHY ARE THEY NoT PAID? To tHe Eprron or THe Heraup:— I, as one of the inspectors of election, wish to call the attention of the Comptroller to the fact that we have not yet reseived our pay, although it is five weeks last jay since election, Many of us are in need of the money. Cannot he imake us a Christmas present of it? AN INSPECTOR. A DANGEROUS ROAD, Yo Tur Eprror or rue Herauy:— ‘Tho driving on the Boston road from West Farms is dangerous. The road is so narrow, especially on the Lill, that the railroad track monopolizes it. It should be widened, or the track removed, as it has been the occasion of meny accidents and ove death. At night the road is almost impassable, owing to the lack of light. A WRECKED DRIVER.

The earnings of the best years of my life I put there, along with other money in- trusted to my care, and with the exception of a mis- erable dividend some years ago I have not since heard anything from it.+ It is about time the unfor- tunate depositors learned something about it. A RUINED DEPOSITOR, POST OFFICE BOXES. To THE Eprror ov tHe Hrraw: I have been a boxholder in the Post Office for about three years, and I agree with all the old boxhokers, who are asking a reduction, Eight dollars a year is suflicient in these times, and I think the holders ought to call a meeting and demand the reduction. ‘There are now about three or four hundred boxes to let, if not more. If the rent is reduced I am sure all the boxes will be opened. BOXHOLDER, OBSTRUCTIONS IN FULTON STREET. To THE Eprion or THe HenaLp:— Pleaso call attention to the obstructions at the northwest corner of Fulton and Front strects, which consist of an awning post, hydrant, telegraph pole, barber's post, an old cannon and a pedler’s stand. All these are in the direct passage of the millions who go and come from Fulton ferry. ‘The pedler’s stand serves as a kind of barricade, but before it made its appearance people who were ina hurry had the pleasure of scraping their shins and getting knocked about generally in order to get through or between all of the obstructions. Cannot those who have authority use it for the benefit of the public? sROOKLYNITE. PUT ON MORE CARS, To THE Eprron or THE HERALD:— Allow me to call attention to the crowding, crush- ing and danger to life and limb on the east side ele- vated railroad between the hours of half-past five and half-past six P. M. It excceds anything ever known on the horse railroads, Hundreds of people, wait every night from half to three-quarters of an hour ut the different stations for trains, into which, when they do finally succeed in pushing, they are packed like so many cattle, The overcrowding of the cars renders travelling very dangerous, throwing a greater strain upon both cars and structure than they can safely support. Especially is this noticeable in rounding the curve near the Cooper Institute. Loud complaints are made every evening, and to my knowl- edge ayreat many people living far up town have gone back to the surfuce roads, A PASSENGER. MONOPOLIZING THE PAPERS. To Tur Eprror or tHe HERALD:— Permit me to call attention to a very great griev- ance to which the frequenters of our public libraries are exposed—viz., the monopoly of papers by people who, in their intense selfishness, totally ignore the rights of others. On Thursday evening I went to the Library of the Young Men's Christian Association with the express purpose of looking over the Pall Mall Budget, On entering the room I saw the paper in question in the hands of a person who I knew from it experience would cling to it. the whole night. "He threw itdown afew minutes before ten o'clock, the closing hour. Last night I went again, and, to my Aisyust, beheld the paper still clutehed ‘tenaciously by the’ same hands, where it remained until one minute to ten o'clock; so I had to go away without seeing it. If a sense of decency or due regard for the conven- ience of others ia a room which is generously thrown open to the public, and not for the exclusive use of any one individual, will not induce people to refrain from monopolizing the same paper for two suc- cessive nights, a little gentle compulsion might not be out of order, FAIR PLAY. GUARDING AGAINST STRIKES. The employés of the firm of Straiton & Storm, ci- gar manufacturers, who met on the 8th inst., at Teu- tonia Hall, on Third avenue, for the purpose of per- fecting an organization to prevent strikes and adopt measures which will benefit cigar makers, as a class, held their second meeting yesterday forenoon at the same place, and about two hundred were present. ‘The constitution, drawn up by acommittee appointed for that purpose at the former mecting, with but fow amendments, was adopted, In substance it is as fol- member is to pay a fee of five cents per week, and the firm have offered to contribute $25 per month for the benofit of the society, In Case member is taken sick he is to receive $5 per wee uring the time of his sickness, and if di ensue $100 will be imbseribed by the society for funcral expenses. $100 more than covers the expenses the remainder goes into the treasury. If any employé leaves the shop willingly ho ceases to be a mem! and receives no money from the association. If discharged he ceases to be a member and receives fifty Lend cent of what he has di ited. In caso of strikes half the whole amount deposited by those who leave will be refunded to them, and if they refuse to come to an agreoment at the end of six months they cease to be members.

A PRISONER'S SURPRISE.
