FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Stocks Irregnlar, Speculation Dull and the Market Without Feature. | GOLD 113 7-8 A 1144 113 3-4. Government Bonds and Investment Securities Quiet—Money on Call 1-2 and 3 Per Cent— Railroad Bonds in Fair Demand. Wat Srreet, Wepyespay, March 28—6 P. MM, No'Connor as a witness in the Supreme Court and no Gould tn the Stock Exchange—hence a dull business and a brokers’ market exclusively. Still there was a manifest hardening of prices in some of the railroads, due to the large short interest lately made and to the expectancy of favorable reports from the convention of freight agents at Chicago to-morrow, Whatever their action may be it can have but little effect upon prices; for speculators are weary of | the constantly recurring stories of arrangements | formed to-day to be annulled to-morrow and of pledges made only to be broken, It is bard work kicking against the pricks, and the process of bulling stocks at the present moment offers but little attrac- tion, There was something of an improvement in tho Share list atone time to-day, led by Lake Shore as | general-in-chief, but the rest of the market was a rag- ged Falstaff’s raw recruits, and weakened perceptibly when aid was most required, Hence the flurry of Lake Shore up to 6144 was as evanescent as the swirl of a snow squall in March, and the advance melted away to 6034 with equal rapidity. Erie, Western Union and Pacific Mail may be classed among the somnolents. The | English commissioners have carried off thelr rail and | coupon interests as-part of their bag and baggage. At, | lantic and Pacitic Telegraph opposition is biding its time, and Pacific Mail wonders probably why, in all the stormy weather which has marked the season, none of | Its ships have brought up on the lee shore or other- | wise camo to grief, | ‘The market is divided between hopes and fears, and | operators swayed by one or the other of these emo- | tions would find but a lame majority did the question come to ballot, Mr, ‘Gould fs in court, Mr. Connor an unknown quan- tity inthe problem, Uncle Dantel in bankruptey and the young operator scheming for the Lake Shore presi. | dency and engaged upon a treatise upon “kidnap, | ping.’? With these shining orbs out of the market and the Twenty-third street party reflecting their lurid and sombre light only, what can be said of a state of things | Which exhibit features solely of apathy and gloom?

The failuro of James E. Adams, dealor in uphol- sterers’ hardware, of No. 479 Broadway, formerly of No, 94 Duane street, was announced yesterday. Noth- ing definite in regard to Mr, Adams? liabilities or assets could be ascertained yesterday, but it is believed thas the liabilities will not exceed $12,000, whilo va assets will be small, John L. Hobson has filed a@ petition in ec bankruptcy in the United States District Court, and the matter was yesterday referred to Register Allen, of No, 152 Broadway. The insolvent schedule was defective, however, and must be corrected before the petitioner can be adjudged a bankrupt. Several of Otto Huster’s creditors having petitioned the United States District Court, Judge Blatchford, to throw him into bankruptey, the petition was yester. day granted and the order of reference forwarded to Register Allen, The first meeting of the creditors of Stephen A, Wood was held yesterday at the office of Register Wilhams, No, 4 Warren’ street. Nine debts were proven, aggregating. about $28,000, of which the fol- eee were the largest:—Collins, Downing & Co., $4,033; Emily I. Wood, $16,715; Thomas Steers, $5,604, and | Joseph F, Waring, $1,547. Mr. William C Heath, of No, 478 Broadway, was elected assignee. The examiation in the matter of the claim of Messrs. Grillin & Hoffman, of Baltimore, against the estate of Hi. ‘IT. Helmbold tor $11,000, is now in prog- ress before Register Joun Fitch, of No, 845 Broadway. J. F. Porter, a paper manulacturer of Duane street, whose financial difficulties were alluded to in yester- day’s Heraxp, has been in trouble for about two years, He purchased a paper mill m Marion, Pa., in 1870, which, proving to bea bad investment, 1s the princi- palcanse of his failure. Two years ago his debts amounted to about $90,000, but since that time, by careful economy, he lias succeeded in reducing them to less than $30,000, at which figure they now stand, His assets are little more than the amount that the machinery in the mill before mentioned will realize. Mr. Porter is hi; ged esteemed by the paper trade, and meets with much sympathy in bis misiorenpes. M. E. Shrier, bas osnér, ©. A. Corson and Frank Shrier have filed a petition in bankruptey against John Taylor, dealer in fancy goods at No, 308 Kighth avenue, ‘Their claims amount to $1,800, ‘The trm of Van Dyke & Downs, sewing machino cabinet makers, corner of First avenue and Thirty- second street, has gone into bankruptcy.

THE FULTON BANK ROBBERY, Yesterday another detective was despatched to Georgia, trom the Brookiyn Central Otlice, to assist the officer already in that State searching for B. P, Rogers, two any twenty Thousand bg Ag van | the fugitive recewing teller of the Fulton Bank of | Brooklyn, This latter movement was prompted by the receipt of a letter from the Post Office, which was ad- dressed to Mrs, Rogers by her husband. A fow dayt ago, it now transpires, a package of money was sent by to some relatives of his wile residing ‘p Adants, Ga., with instroctions to communicate the fact to the bank officers in Brooklyn. This was done, aud the money, the amouut of which could not be as: certained, is now said to be on its back to that city, Une thousand dollars reward is offered for the arrest of the accused, and the parsuers are growing un. easy. An impression gains strength that the abscond. ing teller has repented and is on the home track, bent ‘| vag restitution and seeking mercy at the haads of the law. ‘ 2 <- EW FERRY.
