OBSERVER, STOP THE WASTE AND SUPPLY THE WANTS. New York, Nov. 4, 1876. To tae Evitor or Tux Hexato;— As I have had very little Croton water for the last two orthree days! think I havea right to complain when I see it wasted, Yesterday I did not have water enough to cook with, so last evening I concluded to go out and get my supper. I went to L. W. Parker’s, on Sixth avenue, and to my astonishment I saw a foun- tain in tull play. Now is that right? I live in West Fifty-Orst street, on a flat, and from what I can see, if we do not have water, we will have a great deal of sick- ness. Now, whut I suggest is, if the Croton is as low as it is said to be, let our Commissioners give us some notice before they shut off the water, or place us on allowance, say from six to eight A. M. and from eleven A. M. toone F. M. and fiom five to eight P, M. Then we could manugo to get along until we shall bav plenty, But stop the waste in those fashionable res- taurants and rum holes. If they will not stop use force, and make them. IJ have been on an atlowance at sea, and know what it is to be without water. Please don’t throw this In the waste basket. 1 give my name, hoping, however, you will not use 1.

A SENSATIONAL STORY REGARDING TRE ROB- BERY OF DIAMONDS—-LARGE NUMBER OF UNDAY VISITORS—-THE GATES OPENED TO - THE FAVORED ONES, PauLapstruia, Nov. 6, 1876, A sensational story concorning the robbery of dia- monds, valued at bundreds of thousanas ot doilara, from the main builuing of the Exhibition, was pub- Hshed in a local paper here this morning, and tor a ed considerable excitement. Investigation, , Showed that the statement had no vase ot fact whatever.

THE MONEY AND GOLD MARKETS.

They have dove more, for they have let, the market with zo more backbone thau pertains to an oyster, and with no more tone than the Centennial calliope, The tact that the presiding oificers of the great trunk lines were to meet in propria persona, without delegating their powers to understrappers, was received as an in- dex that business was meant and that the result could not be other than favorable 10 increased rates for trailic and a consequent advance in railway shares, Even the steulthy meetings and secret adjournments to meet again | were. regarded as oxcellent omens, abd speculation backed and Milled, and prices rose and fo!l as reports of proceedings came for better or worse. Thus during the first three days of the weck the stock jobbing fraternity were dancing attendance upon the conclave or scour- ing the purlieus of the Exchang? for information as to its doings, while the market itself went through the Stated routine of exhibiting decided strength in the morning, flattenimg out completely after midday and fetching up with a sharp rally just previous to the close, When it became known, however, that the confereuce had broken up for good and all, or with no better assurance of reconstruction than lay in the beck of a lukewarm = chuir- man, there occurred a serious depression and a return of prices to the figures of two wecks back. Thus “fooled with hope’ operators for a rise found their sheet anchor gone and no new appliance ready at hand with which to riga fresh support. Conse- quently the latter part of tho woek Las been an epitome of dulness, unproductive of shekels to the needy broker and a puzzle to the curbstone prophet and pedier of ‘privileges.”” It 4s certainly unlortunate that so Important an element of strength as a railroaa peace could got have tuken practical shape, for, although there exists an un- doubted under stratum of firmness formed from trade improvement, it 18 not ‘stable enough in iteelf to resist the attack of a formidable bear | party, Such a party, it is conjectured iu some quarters, has already been constructed by a coalition of Twenty-third street and the Osborn- Mills coutingent, or, at least, that an agreement to work for the same end has been formed. As these gentlemen are not in the habit of placarding their projects, it is only a matter of guesswork at the best, though tho supposition may be traced to certain er- Fratic movements in Lake Shore which gives color to the story, ‘The St. Paul sbarea were persistently jecble through- out the week under the expectancy of a showing of diminished earuings. Although the return, when it came, was better than had been jooked for, it had no further effect than to steady the stock at the deciine. The Western Union people in their campaign against Jay Gould have not been very happy in their tactics, Judging trom the difficulty of the advance, though wo are promised a brilliant movement for next week. What with the additional business from Centennial ana other sources the company should be in condition to biow avery lurge trumpet in their next report; but, unfortunately, the breath will give out with the ap- pioaching closing up of these fictitious aids, and the mu ic of two per cent quarterly dividend die away with them, The excitement of the election is likely to render next week a tame one, and until the political hurly- burly is over it 18 probable that no deflnite shape will be given to the market, either up or down.

A GOVERNMENT AND OTHER BONDS. Transactions in this department and the higher prices that rule continue to show the unabated conti. dence of investors in these securities. The market closed firm, with buyers generally encouragea by the outlook, The movement of sone Stato bonds also in- dicates a revival of interest long suspended. Freeh inquiry was made for Tenneesees and a noteworthy advance was recorded. District of Columbia 3-65 bonds were stronger, while unusual activity was shown im Slissouri sixes and Louisiana consols. First class railway mortgages commanded the at- tention of a gooa many prominent investors by reason of their steadiness, and the fact that so largo a number of roads are showing increased earnings, notwithstand- ig opposition on the settlement of the railway war, there are those who expect a prompt advance in this class of securitics. MEMORANDA, An Arkansas paper says'—''At Amsterdam, where $500,000 of the 8 per cent bonds of Arkansas Central aro held, a meeting of the bondholders wus held Sep- tember 5, notice having been received that there would be a foreclosure sale at the end of the month. At this meeting a Mr. Ziegeluar, ond of the Dutch members of the recently dissolved Lcudon committee, proposed that a Mr. Huntington, of London, who was to sail on the 6th ult. for New York, be commissioned to care for the bondholders, which ho would undertake to do if they would contribute £500 for the expenses. This was reed to, the Dutch tondholders contributing $2 40 per bond, The Credit Foncier, of Paris, which hold a large part of the bonds (hypothecated), and some Lon. doo holders, join in the movement.”” ‘Tho laiest financial statemen: of this company gives the amount o1 first mortgage bonds (8 per cent gold) as $620,009, and ot the second mortgage vonds (7 per cent gold) us $700,000, No interest has been paid since 1873, It bas forty-cight miles of narrow gauge railroud, and to pay the interest requires net earnings equivalent to a little more than $2,000 gold por mile, Earnings have not been reported since February, 1873, For the year ending with that month they were $35,918. It 1s reported that the Philadolphia and Reading bas | changed the plan of its grain transportation project shighuly. the Erie and Lehigh Vuliey roady, us at first proposed, it has recently received some cargocs via the Northern Central, taking thom at Williamsport, and thus secur- ing their transporiation over the whole of its own road, instead of paying other roads to do the hauling and looking for its own profit to the wharfage and ele- yator facilities alone, 1t 18 said the new programme owes its origin to the action of the Lebigh Vuliey Company when the coal combination broke up; but, however this may be, there must have been some weighty roasons to prevent its adoption at first as the most natural step to take.
