This was followed by 2 continied depression in Northwestern, this stock falllng off fully iwo points, while St. Paul followed, and the coat shares declined ‘from 34 to 1. Tho Vanderbilt stocks ylelded fractionally, and Western Union Telegraph was also de- pressed, Burllngton & Quincy was an ex- ception to the general tendency of the Market at the outset, but, by 1 a’eleck, it, tov, had felt the downward tendency of the market, and sympathized to the extent of one point. At noon the market was dull and heavy, Northwestern coinmon and St. Paul Folng below the lowest figures of the morn- ing, while Burlington and Western Union were pressed for sule at low figures, IT WAS RUMORED that the lines along the Pennsylvania Rall- road formerly under the control of the West- ern Union Company had been turned over to the American Union Tolegraph Company, and tho former had been dispossessed. Nash- ‘ville & Chattanooga also Joined in the down- ward movement, and tho market was weak and selling off. On the secondcall the market besamo stronger, with a slight rally In the active list. Missouri, Kansas & ‘Texas was especlally strong; the coal road shares, tho ‘Vanderbilts, the Grangors, Western Union, American Unlon, and Erie all shared about proportionately In the improvement. Pacific Mail and New York Central were notably strong. . THE UPWARD NEACTION in the stock market continued with strength up to tha close of business, when, ag a rule, the highest prices of tho day were made. ‘Tho lending stocks were Western Union ‘Tel- egraph, Union Paelite, Lake Shore, Milwau- keo & St. Paul, Erle, Detnware, Lackawannn & Western, Jersey Central, New York Central, Clinttanooga, Ontario & ‘Western, Kansas & Texns, Chesapenko & Ohio, ahd Cannda Southern. Tho upward turn In prices was directly due to the relaxa- tion In the money stringency. At tho open- ing of business to-day, notwithstanding tha, heavy arrivals of foreign specie, the local money niarkot continued VERY STRINGENT, and stock-brokers were paying 6 per cont plus n daily commission of 2@Y of 1 por cent per day, necording to tho collateral offered and the standing of tho borrower. Of course none of tho banks or financial Institu- tions tuok more than O per cent, but the, banks had Iittle to lend, and were in many cases obliged to-curtall thelr loans in- stead of being able to expand.them on nc- count of the out-of-town demand for money and the drain into the Treasury, Mercantile paper was 6@7 per cent.
