=e B FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Rumors of Fresh Hostilities Between | Trunk Railroad Lines. GOLD STEADY AT 1122 78 Government and Railroad Bonds Firm—In- yestment Shares Steady Call Loans Supplied at Three Per Cent. Money on Wau. Srrerr, Trespay, May 2—6 P.M. It is a fine thing, no doubt, to figure as ‘Queen of the May,” especially if Her Majesty be defenaed against the weatber by wraps and galoches, [tis asad thing to have to retire into private life when the féte 1s over Knowing that the ceremony hag como and gone like a dream. Ceutral and Hudson celebrated May day yester- day at the Stock Exchange, the reigning princess of the occasion; it has gone back into retirement to-day shorn of all its attractions, Its fluctuations were as feeble this morning as they wero forcible yesterday, and the crowd that watched the dealings found ‘metal more attractive’’ elsewhere. It soon became apparent that there was to be no case of ‘non eat inventus” on the part of Vanderbilt's brokers ‘day as happened yesterday, for they were on the Bpot botimes with their bid of 112 for the stock, and so eld it to the end. The whole list, which, without a leader, is as incapa- ble of harmony as an orchestra without a conductor, fell intoa most discordant state when yesterday’s fa. worite relapsed into its accustomed dulness, and the old apatby and torpor covered the market like a pall So, for most of the day the market can be described as dull and steady, with a tendency toward better prices. Western Union crawled up from 64 to 64%, Lake Shore from 5334 to 54% and Michigan Central from 4914 to 503;, these being the opening and highest prices re- Bpectively of the day. Later on, however, it began to be whispered that the Feduction of passenger rates, so long threatened, would | Bertainly be announced to-morrow, and on this rumor the whole railway share list commenced to give way, with the result of carrying Lake Shore down to 52. Michigan Central to 59, and of depressing the other out- lying roads in a corresponding degree. In addition, the reports from tho West that the great trunk lines were entering into extensive contracts for the moving of grain to the seaboard during the coming fall, under the present low echedule of prices, hada depressing effect, since it was looked upon as a gua- Faniée that the railroad war must necessarily continue until next winter, There was nothing observable in Western Union, save an effort to place 60 day options ‘on abort account, supposed to be for Mr. Gould, and a decline of % per cent from highest figures at the ond. Coal stovks, if anything, were firmer than yesterday, ‘under limited transactions, and, in a word, the whole @ay’s business may be dismissed as featureless, ‘THE SALAS TO-DAY. The transactions at the Btock Exchange to-day og- Gregated 145,700 shares, which were distributed among active stocks, as New York Central and Hud- son, 7,105; Erie, 16,100; Lake Shore, 49,800; Cleveland pod Pittsburg, 100; Northwestern, 2,900; do, pro- ‘erredy 900; ‘Rook Isiand, 1,700; Pacific Mail, 15,800; Bt.
