Judicial Decision Favorable to Mrs. Parnell, AN OLD MAN’S PASSION. GATES MAY BE CLOSED SUNDAY. The National Commission Not Disposed to Recede From Its Position. Wortp's Farn Guousps, Cutcaoo, May 19.— ‘The prospects are not bright for the opening of the exposition next Sunday, as pro- vided for by resolution of the local | directory. ‘The disposition of the direct- ors is to obtain the approval of the national commission as to opening, on account of the law, which explicitly sets forth that no new rule adopted by the directors or any proposed change in another rule can become operative till such rule has been approved by the commission, which is vested with the power to modify any rule presented to it. Sunday opening ‘comes as a new rule,or a change in the one adopted. jointly by the com- mission and directory last October. so that the concurrence of the former body is neces- sary before the gates can be legally opened Devt Sunday, no meter if the directory bas | voted to rettir the 2,000,000 which it bas re- ceived from the United States treasury in the form of souvenir huif doliars. ‘The unanimous adoption by the commission yesterday of the judiciary committee's report, which knocked ‘Attorney Walker's “limited Sunday opening” opinion into a cocked hat, gives the national body nothing to act on today in regard to Sunday opening. No communication has been received from the di- rectory officialiy notifying the commission of the sweeping Sunday opening resolution and tha :atention to return the money voted by Congress. No initintory action can be ‘taken by the comimission for or ngainst Sunday opening. It is something with which that body has nothing whatever to do, uniess by way of approval, modifying or re- jecting action on the matter by the local directory. ‘There are only two more sessions of the com- mission before Sunday comes again, and as there is to be a secret session with the chiefs of departn Gecisive action to be face indications among the exposi- tion officials today lead to the impression that the gates of the fair will be closed to the public st Sunda: | | Eaptess Gop: ‘At the “Rink.” Wo will papor one ora wired for you on we | ae ¥ an exormous stoc Wall a fapare in the newest most = 3! stic desicns and ‘effects, Wall gs in exquisite desicny and rich colgsings 7 ou own importation. | py French auclis Way no: enjoy the -} Decutiful walls and pay t at your leisure?

This new legal development and the bond issue kept the stock feverish and weak this morning. The neral market was firm,as a rule, notwith- nding the stctement that Lazard Freres will ship $1,500,000, and Heideiback, Ickelheimer & Co. $500,000 gold to Europe tomorrow. ‘The market gutbered strength after the open- ing and prices advanced right through the list. ‘The dealings were uot especially large, and the paucity of stocks of fering + was chiefly responsible for the improvement. ‘Ihe advancs was equal to 3934 per ceat, the latter in distillers, which Tecovered to 17.
