From the New York Sun To-day. Yesterday was a great day in the Stock Ex- change. The official record of fts transactions show that over 835,000 shares of stock were ex- changed in the five hours’ se-ston of the board. The actual sales must have been over 1,000,000 shares. No such business was ever done before in the history of the New York Stock Exchange or any other stock exchange in the world. It was all done by about 700 men, who, when they got through, were unanimously of the opinion that they never wanted another day’s work of the same sort, even if their wages were to be doubled. ‘Tuesday was a dig day for business, the brokers trading in over 750,000 Shares. But the current of speculation was steadily one way all day. Yester- day It was different. It first struck a barrier tn its downward course, leaped over it, washed 1 away, and poured down with sullen roar like a ‘Niagara on bulls and bears alike. Bellows of pain, howls of triumph, and shrieks hardly human filed the vast, somber board room during the first wo hours. The floor was packed with a seething, struggling mass of men. It was a confusion that the most Vivid Imagination could not picture. Yet tn those two short hours half a milion shares of stock representing hundreds of militons of prop- erty changed owners Ten years azo the same excitement and speculation would have dropped into a panic. AS it was the brokers who now and then crawled out of the deafening Babel simply shook their heads and said, “It looks ragged. Then they rushed Into the nearest cafe, and then jumped back into the chaotic mass. ‘The atrin and about the Exchange was heavy with rumors. ‘The Granger war was a battie that would end like that between the Kilkenny cats; the tron trade had practically ceased to exist, drawn the coal trade into the grave after It great railroad kings of the country had unloaded and were going short of their own stocks; moncy was going to be so dear that one would have to ay a premium to look at it; «nd, in fact, one had But to look into this aggregation of Imaginary evils to see the complete devastation and financ! prostration of a great country of 50,000,000 people. It was a very sad picture, seen in the mist that hung over the raging, howling, 700 brokers. It Is a Wall street axiom, that the average stock broker never thinks during business hours. He belleves all he hears, providing it accords with the current prices. He ‘apparently does his reasoning atter business hours, and confines it to counting thi lambs he has shorn or can shear, or, if he gamble: on his own account, to computing’ how much he has left of his own wool. His customers,as a rule, don’t reason much, either, in am: terday morning’s. It they hold stocks they always let go of them when vaiues melt for an’ hour, xs hey did then. There ts good reason for believing hat a good many must have loosened thelr crip sterday forenoon, ‘They not ouly let co their ktip, but fairly threw their pet stocks from their hands. Slender margins that have gradually dwindled to 3 or4 per cent, were wipéd out lke steam [rom a window pane. The stocks went, too, It Was a cold, gloomy day for many a light pursed speculator’ who had hoped against hope only to be left without stocks, margin, or credit. Nor did all the brokers escap 11, quiet house in Wall strect pulled down tts blinds. But about noon the torrent struck something that dammed it. What 1t was or how durable tt is Ume alone can determine. There followed a back- action movement toward higher prices. None of the tales of dire disaster had been realized. In fact, IU was gradually Impressed upon the Wall strect mind that no new phase had been developed In the Granger war; that the fron trade was likely to survive for a little while, at least, and that a few coals would be marketed to keep the public Warm, It was asserted, and with certain tndica- tion of probability, that Mr. Gould, Mr. Vander- bilt, Mr. Sage, Mr.’ Villard, and a few others hay- ing funds and’following, were buying the market, ‘The Secretary of the Treasury was, according to general report, about to ‘open’ the vaults of the government by a call for bonds. ‘The news went broad that some of the oflicers of the Granger roads were on their Way to Unis city to covfer with those of other roads for a setticment of the war between them. In short, as the Hon. ussell Sage has so often and vividly described it, the clouds have broken, the suns shining, and wecan see the bright blue sky.” ‘The picture above the crazy financler changed to one of more roseate hue. ‘The victorious bears rushed madiy tocover. They helped the market amazingly. It Was asserted that Charles Osborn and all his con- tingent had suddenly grown horas, and so had Mr. Keone ang a good many others whose-position On the market is considered worth knowing. Without pegs or much. gratuitous lying, prices rolled back along the course In which they had fallen, and closed much higher all around for the active lst than on Tuesday night. After a day of such remarkable convulsions the street began to argue with Itself. Some thou f thit after a decline of 10, 15 and 20 per cent along the Mne, tt stood to reason and that It was about thne to buy ‘The large business of the the increa h " precedent and look for a ri roads, as shown by and the business before them, ‘upy them during the Winter were dwelt upon. ‘The foreign demand for Texas Pacific and Northern Pacifle lands recelvea some mention, It was alleged that Mr. Vander- S the largest stockholder in the North- Western road and a large stockhoider In the Rock Island, was going to try to settle the Granger war. sons _——— a Iv Sullivan Afraid? ALLEN WANTS TO KNOW WHY THE BOSTON SLUGGER DOES NOT COME TO TIME. A spectal dispatch to the Putladelphia Times from New York says: There 1s eviient determina- tion on the part of R. K. Fox to bring Sullivan and Allen together in the ring or inake the former give up his title to the championship of America. He has notified Sullivan that the articles fora fight between him and Allen for $5,000 a side are ready for signature, and has Invited the Boston pugilist to meet his representative at the Madison Square an exuibition aud complet the arrangements. It uilivan 1s unable tG be present at the garden, Mr. Xx says the offer will remain open until Tuesday night, Wien the articles can be signed at Harry Hil’s! Mr, Fox adds that, having already placed a forfeit of $1,000 in Harry Hill’s hands, he will ex- pect Sullivan to cover tt on Monday or ‘Tuesday, f Sullivan fails to do so Mr. Fox thinks Allen will be justified in claiming the American champlon- ship. Allen will then offer to tight any man in the world for $5,000 a side. “Sullivan says that Ym an old man ‘and past my prime, and that on that account he can knock me out,” said Allen, “But if he belleves that, why was he not here, and where Is his $1,000? Somebody says be has gone to Boston. Well, must a pugilist who claims the champlonship of the world be always going to Boston? Can't he delegate somebody to deposit his forfeit and come to time?” = x An Attorney Flung Through a Window. From the Philadelphia Times to-dey. RD.

LONG AND HONORABLE CAREER OF THE VETERAN JOURNALIST AND POLITICIAN. Thurlow Weed’s death in New York yesterday morning Was announced in THe STAR last. even- ing. Mr. Weed was born at Cairo, Green county, N. ¥., November 15, 1797, He learned printing in the bMilce of Machy Croswell, at Catskill. In the War of 1812 he served on the northern frontier asa Private and as quartermaster-sergeant. After be- coming of age he established the Agriculturist, at Norwich, Chenango county, N. ¥., and during the Next ten years edited various journals, the last belng the Anti-Masonic Baguirer, publisbed in Rochester. During the anti-Masonie excitement in New York 1m 1826-7 he fdentified himself With the party opposed to the Masons, and was twice electe by it to the lower | house of the state legislature.

X OF SeVen Years ago Mr. Weed’seyestcht began | failing him, and from that time he gradually grew | blind, His physteian explained recently What the old gentleman’s blindness was caused by the rm ular course of cataract. Old age constant! | minished bis strength, and as his strength dimin- ished his blindness increased. Mr. Weed was nt frst very sensitive about the loss of hs eyesight, | and for a while stubbornly resented the precau: tions that hils relatives and friends took to watch and follow him. He tnsisted on going out alone, j sgalnst the advice of friends, and cecastonally | met with painful mishaps’ One very cold winter night, about six years ago, while | returning “home alone, he slipped and fell jon Sth avenue, in “front of the Man- hattan club honse, at 15th street, and being stunned, remained lying on the sidewalk for seve- Tal minutes, until ‘somebody in passing happened to recognize’ him, and picking him up conducted | | Mimhome. About three years azo he met with | two or three similar accidents. His blindness be- | came so pronounced, however, two years ago,that he ceased his attempts to ‘go alone, and’ was | obliged to depend almost entirely on ther peo- | le’s eyes, His unmarried daughter Harriet, W has given her entire life thus far to her father's | service, was his constant companton,and the almost | helpless old gentleman trusted her and leaned upon her implicitly. It was she who read the papers to him, and she to whom he dictated what- | ever he desired to have written. 1 Mr. Weed was taken seriously 1I1 two years ago | this present fall, and many of his friends gave up all hopes of his recovery. “His illness was exactly stmilar in origin and character to the one which has just proved fatal. He was prostrated by a cold, lost his appetite and became physically lan- | guid and Weak. His extraordinary mind, how- ever, retained Its vigor, and he seemed to take an enthusiastic Interest "in the Garfeld-Hancock campaign. When the great_mass meeting in the Academy of Music in New Y whiten fori ned the presidential campaign, held, his strength and | Mr. Weed summoned all of it. ‘The excitement seemel to help | attended him, for he gained strength very rapidly there | after, and two weeks after the mass meeting he Was able to walk out of doors, Since then, until his last tllness, he was quite feeble, but his love of excitement and of meeting people induced him 0 Out on Various Occasions. One of the last soc! entertaluments that he attended was the dinner and reunion gtven July 4, 1882, hy the Lelands at the Sturtevant house to the veterans of the war of 1812.
