The public bath houses, which were kept open from 20 to September 29. were used by 195 bodies were interred in the city burial ground, KM were cremated, and 373 wera received at the Morgue. Chief Eisenhower strongly recommends the establishment of more public bath houses, especially in the slum districts, where they would bo of untold benefit to the poor.

The abolition of tbe otllce of sealer of weights and measures, the Chief says, Iihs not been followed by any beneficial results, and he also says that many of the poor are at the mercy of un-serupulous strolling vendors. It is almost a daily occurreuce to have to con liquate numbers of false weights. He recommends a reorganization of the whole system. A recommendation is also made to restore Independence Hull to its original condition when it shall be vncuted by Comu-iK and that it shall be open at all times to the public He strongly ureas the placing of the small parks recently acquired by the city in condition for public play grounds for the children, hs it would keep them off the streets and thereby diminish accidents. The last recommendation is that a thoroughly competent arboriculturist be appointed, whose duty it will be to.

The case was originally brought in 1892 in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia by George Merrick for a writ of mandamus to compel Charles Foster Secretary of the Treasury, to re-eeive from him silver brick and coin it into silver dollars for him. The decision of the District Court was against Merrick and the case was taken to the Supreme Court, where it wns pending when Mr. Foster went out of otlice. Mr, Wilson Btated as his reason for asking for the dismissal of the oise that it hod abated because of Mr. Foster's retirement.

McCarthy's Latest Appeal. London, January 24. In the manifesto which Justin McCarthy, chairman of the Irish Parliamentary party, issued to his followers, appealing to them to be constant in their attendance at the House of Commons during the coining session of Parliament, he makes the significant remark that this session promises to have a decisive influence upon the Irish cause. Mr. McCarthy adds that it will probably be the last session before on appeal is made to the country, and he reminds the Irish members that the position of their kindred in America inatimeof deep industrial depression does not permit them to bono for much assistance from that quarter.

PRISON SOCIETY WORK Reports Submitted at the One Hundred ani ninth Annual Meeting. Tbe Pennsylvania Prison Society held Its one hundred and ninth annual meeting yesterday in Reed's Hall, 1321 Arch street. Mr. Lytle, secretary of the society, reported that during 1894 576 visits were made to the Eastern Penitentiary and 11,043 were paid to prisoners.

Tbe committee visited the Philadelphia County Prison 333 times, the Chester County Prison 13 times, with 625 visits to cells. During the year there were 3,675 women arrested, 1,869 of whom were iutox-icated. Chairman Milne announced to the society that a legacy of 95,000 had been left them by Mrs. Caroline S. Williams.

The committee' on juvenile commitments reported that they were preparing a bill to be presented to the State Legislature providing for a Houteof Detention for Minors and also recommended a bill to prohibit ohlldren under 16 years of age attending the theatre without their parents or guardians and from pawning articles. These were arranged In resolutions and adopted. An election lor onicers io serve ounng me ensuing year resulted in the selection of the following: President, Caleb J. Milne; vice presidents, Edward Townsend and Alfred H. Love: treasurer, George W.

HaH; secretaries, John J. Lytle and William Ingram; counsellors, William X. Ashman and Henry 8. Oattcll. Nearly all of the old and several new members of the acting committee were also elected.

The price paid for the twenty-five shares of Guarantors' stock is an advance of 25.50 per share over the last previous sale. The increased value of the stock is baaed partly upon the good showing made by the company's annual report and partly to the semi-official announcement that a dividend nf 10 percent, will be paid in March. It was hinted alw that an extra dividend may accompany the regular one. Judge Dallas, in the United States Circuit Court yesterday, confirmed the recent sale made by Master Martin P. Gray of the property of the Pennsylvania, Poughkeepsie and Boston Railroad Company.

The purchaser is William B. Scott and the price realized jflO.OOO. The action was begun in New Jersey by the Holland Trtiat Company as trustee, and as the defendant company had property in Pennsylvania circuit, ancillary proceedings followed here. At a meeting held in the Reading Terminal yesterday, the directors of the Locust Gap Improvement Company declared a dividend of 3 per payable on Wednesday, January 30. The directors of the Fulton Coal Company also declared a dividend of 4 per payable on Wednesday, January 30.

He is quoted as saying that all the friends of the bill are confident that it will be passed by the Senate wfthotit amendment All the railroad systems in tiic country have representative at Washington working in the interest of the bill not lobbyists, but the high officers of the road. Mr. Kerens says that, as nearly as they can ascertain, a eood majority of the Senate are in favor of the bill.

The onlv determined opposition they ibid, he says, is that of Mr. Morrison, of the Inter-State Commerce Commission, who is workiug actively to secure the adoption of the amendment which he recommended. Colonel Kerentt snys that he expects the bill to pass the Senate within six or eight days. The weekly statement of City Treasurer Oellers shows that the receipts of that department amounted to $207,600.44, and the payments to 92H.784.86, which, with the amount on hand from the previous week, left a balance at the clone of business on Wednesday night of The trolley companies and their employes fn New Jersey do not expect trouble from the Brooklyn strike. In no instance has it been reported that a movement for a sympathetic strike was likely to he successful.

There is no sign of a strike of the trolley men employed in Jersey City. The notice posted at the Cortlandt street ferry station depot 011 Tuesday forbidding the motormen and conductors to "break in" new men has been torn down. The notice purported to come from District No. 75, the Jersey City branch of the Knights of Labor. Its purpose was to prevent the training of men to take the laces of strikers in Brooklvn.

Manager David 'oung said yesterday that the Consolidated Traction Company was breaking in new men as usual. He had not heard of nny objection on the part of the men. A representative of the Consolidated Traction Company in Newark said yesterday that the no complaints from the men had been received, and no effects of the Brooklyn strike were Several motonnen and conductors agreed that the men had 110 new cause for complaint, and it seemed to be the general verdict that there would be no strike.

Butter The market was steadier under colder weather. The proportion of strictly fancy cream- ery on the market was small, but qualities ap- proxiroating extra or about equal to the average of seasonable production were in ample supply. Prints were also steady. We quote; Western Interest generally was centered in the Beading securities at the opening of the local stock market yesterday, as operators hardly knew whether to look for another great outpouring of the common stock, or an argent demand from the short interest, which was tboogbt to be large. This opinion, however, was hardly justifiable, and before the close of the day it had been clearly demonstrated that recent selling was sot of the bears, bnt was genuine liquidation.

One of tbe largest blocks sold was that of 22.000 shares on Wednesday, and was owned by Joseph F. Sinnott, who, up to that time, was tbe largest individual holder of Heading stork, the total number oJf shares owned by him and bis partner, Andrew Moore, having been upward of 40.000 shares. Mr. Sinnott admitted yesterday that be had sold about one-half of ft on Wednesday, but declined to say what bad induced him to part with that ranch of his stock. According to the "street story, however, Mr.

Sinnott began selling on the rumor that another director of the company and Ilo is now probably the largest individual holder of tbo stock was unloading, and that unfavorable developments wore pending in the anthracite coal trade. Both of these re ports proved to be gronndless. The director in question Raid that he had not parted with any of his le ading holdings, and President Harris and Receiver Welsh informed certain ol their friends that the anthracite coal trade situation was practically the same as it had been for several weeks past. Mr. Sinnott subsequently bought back some of the stock he sold.

Heading was firm and slightly higher at the opening, first sales being made at later in tbe dty it touched 4 11-16, but closed at 4 91Ga4 11-16. The improvement was due to probably a half dozen causes tho cessation of heavy liqniflation, the official statement regarding the anthracite coal trade, some buying by shorts, and last, but not least, to a more hopeful feeling as to the future of the company. Many well-informed people were heard to express the opinion that the nronertv would not he foreclosed, and they based their view upon the fact that, if such a step wns taken and the junior securities were wiped out. the generals, undor which foreclosure would naturally have to be made, would not onlv have to provide tbe cash to pay off the company's debts, but he content to see their present security con verted into an income bond. This, it was argued, would compel them the general mortgaao bondholders to do some careful thinking before they took the final step in the proceedings.

As against this line of ar gument tbe reorganization committee simply reiterated their former statements, namely. that foreclosure would follow the defeat of their nest amicable plan of reorganization. Some members, of the committee are of the opinion that tbe only wayin which tbe Reading can be permanently reorganized is to make the general mortgage bonds a 5 per cent, income bond, interest to be paid only earned, with payment guaranteed when interest shall bo earned, and, in addition, compel present income bondholders to agree to the establishment of an accumulative reserve fond before they shall receive interest The junior security-holders, of course, would be required to cancel the company's obligations, such as the floating debt, receivers' certificates, eauinment notes, etc. Donbts are expressed as to whether such a plan would be acceptable to either the juniors or the generals, but members of the committee said the present indications were that some such scheme would either have to be adopted, as they intend to make Heading's reorganization permanent, or there would have to be foreclosure under the general mortgage. Tbe junior securities improved yesterday in sympathy with tbe stock, the firsts scoring a net advance of 1 per the seconds and the thirds while tbe generals were a point higher at 70 bid.

The remainder of the local railroad stocks held fairly firm, moving within narrow fluctuations. Pennsylvania recovered to 51. Lehigh Valley at 33ia33B and Lehigh Navigation at were practically unchaneed. Choctaw shaded off to 7 and St. Paul's sales were all made between 552a558.

The Traction stocks Buffered rather severe losses because there were more sellers than buyers. Room traders started the breaks iu them, and in several cases stop-loss orders were uncovered, which served to increase the volume of offerings. Baltimore was a single exception, holding firm at Philadelphia, on the other hand, receded from 88 to 88, closing 87a88i, while Metropol itan dropped off from 101 to100i closing 100al00f. Electric began at tbe next sale was at, 80. while on the offer nf a fifty-share lot its price broke to 776, rallied later to and closed People's kept it company, receding.

steadily, on heavy selling, from 50 to 47, closing 47Ja48i. Hestonville, which closed on Wednesday at 64J bid, sold at 63a A3, closing 62fja63i. The only disturbing factor in this group -of stocks was tbe report that the People's directors contemplated an early call for additional payments on tbe capital stock. The story was an old one and was referred to at length iu this column a few days ago, but it was effective yesterday and aided not a little in demoralizing tbe Traction group. The only shade of truth tbe report contains is that the matter has been informally discussed by tbe directors, a few of whom favor a (5 per share call to liquidate what floating debt may exist after all tbe new trolley work shall have been completed.

Other members of the board advocate tbe payment from the $3,000,000 which are lying idle in the Nothing has been decided, nor will there be for some time, as the money will not he required for several months. Tbe industrial stocks were dull and weak. United Gas at 70ia70, Welshmen Light at 384a37 and Electric Storage Battery at 30. The market closed steady, Tbe movement in the New York market yesterday consisted of a sharp and general rally in the early trading on "shorts" covering and a subsequent raid on the Industrials, which met with somo success in forcing out margin holdings. Lead certificates in particular fell off over three points, with no specific cause assigned.

It is quite possible that tbe early covering of shorts was a precaution taken in view of possible sudden action at Washington. This would not be in such event the first instance where demoralization in tbe money market accomplished that for which serious sreument and expert warning had been employed in vain. No special attention was paid to the earnings statements of the day. They were not encouraging, though St. Paul's gross earnings for tbe third week of January showed considerable increase over the first two weeks.

The accumulation of gold for export to-morrow continued rapidly, something under 3.000,000 being withdrawn during tbe day, which reduces the Treasury gold reserve to below $64,000,000. Prices of Oil. New York, January 24. Petroleum strong Pennsylvania oil closed bid. Oil City, January 24.

An interesting question which has been agitating the plumbers of Philadelphia for some time has been decided by Judge Bregy, of Common Pleas Court, No. 1, in the esse of the Commonwealth against John Gormly, briefly reported in yesterday's paper. It has been the custom of the Mercantile Appraisers to assess plumbers and collect a mercantile tax from them as dealers. Many have objected, claiming to be manufacturers and not dealers within the meaning of the mercantile tax lawn, and therefore exempt from the tax. The Master Plumbers' Association, through their attorneys.

W.Jones and Hood Gilpin, arranged a teat case in the appeal of Plumber John Gormly, of 1433 Columbia avenue, and Judge Bregy, after hearing the evidence, directed that a verdict should be entered in Mr. Gormly's favor, thus declaring the action of the Appraisers a mistake and sustaining the view of the Master Plumbers' Association. A TERRIBLE VOYAGE The British Ship Paltolloch Loses Two Seamen During a Rough Passage. San Fbancisoo, January 24. The British ship Paltolloch arrived in port yesterday after a voyage from New South Wales that lasted ninety days, and during which she lost two of her crew.

She was obliged to put baok to port three days after starting on account of the injury received by the captain during a storm and the damage to the vessel. Under command of another captain, she started out the second time and had a terrible voyage. The decks were sprung by the weight of water on them and nearly all the rigging was wrecked. On the third day out, while the seamen were endeavoring to secure a cask that had gotten loose, two of the men were washed overboard and drowned. The Wool Market.

From the Cotton and Wool Reporter, January 2S. Nearly three and one-half million pounds of wool have been sold this week. There is a visible improvement in breadth of demand. An improved feeling is quite manifest. Manufacturers are taking right along moderate quantities of various kinds of wool, according to the kind of they are making.

It is believed, when one considers that the January, 1890, importations of foreign cloths include three months' consignment delivered in one month, that the bulk of it and the disposition of it thus for is not such as to confirm the apprehensions which were excited last fall concerning the effect of these goods being brought into competition with our domestic manufactures; confidence in their ability to retain their grip upon their own market for such goods as they have hitherto found it practicable to make, seems to grow apace in the minds of the generality of our makers of men's wear and dress goods.
