M. stock Exchange bulis who have ventured into what seemed to be the promising pasturage of a spring rise have been met by a ‘nipping ana eager air,” which has frosted their prospects and blighted their hopes, Ithas blown from the quarter ot the coal mines and issued from the portmanteaus of the trunk railroads, ‘gin old mythological times it did trom the bag of Eolus, Jt isan ill wind, which has scorched prices like a sirocco and has blown nobody any good—except the bears. ‘With the exception of a protest or two against a con- tinuous fall, which imparted a temporary steadiness, the course of the market {rom the Alpha of the open- ing to the Omega of gong-sound was towerll lower prices. ‘The half detined fears of a new outbreak among the railroads havo assumed the form of absolute tacts among timid traders, who fly from one éxtreme to the other with telephonic velocity and shape their actions as though chaos was to come again, Indeed, there seems to be Some reason for apprehension, for the trunk roads ap. pear to be as ready to quarrel as so many schoolboys and regard the question of plighted faith as a mere toy to bo played with. Jn a word, the railroads threaten speedily to be at Joggerheads ugain on the matter of treights, to their own injury and to the hurt of such persons as were led to invest in their shares under promise of future peace and harmony, The Baltimore and Ohio concern Js said to be prima. rily to blame aud to have been caught in flayrante de- licto {un the matter of cutting under, and word of this having como to the cars of Mr. William H, Vanderbilt ‘this gentleman is reported to have expressed himeelt to the effect that unless the above rond adhored to their agreement he should look upon the compact as at an ond, Moreover, that the Central and Hudson Company would hereafter, aboriginully speaking, paddle 1ts own tanoe without regard to any of tho other roads, He is algo reputed to have stated that the C. and H. road was bever more prosperous than during the last year, when thoy acted independently of the other trunk roads, the net earnings for 1876 being $1,600, 000 over and abovo all expenses, including dividends, and that the company @au earn money on freights at two mills per inile. So much for the evil influence on the railroad. Tho tesult of the coal meeting was scarcely more encour- aging. The giat of the whole matter was, that it would bo agreeable to advance the price of the product if it were possible to find any one to buy it, but as that is but of she question it was left to a committee, consi: t- ing of Messrs, Gowan, Sayre and Dickron, to devisoa plan by which the nose of the pablic could be held und the pill (vo cost filty cents more a ton) be administered, Having arrived at this sapient conclusion, these mod- arn tailors ot Tooley street adjourned, The Western Union Telegraph Company havo re- duced rates to principal Western points to thirty-five cepts and twenty-five cents, the same being made in conformity with the recont reductions mado by the Aulantic and Pacife Company.
