MONEY ON CALL BASY AT 4 1-2 4 2 PRR CENT. Wann Sraxrr, Wrpsespar, May 3-6 P, The amount of to-day’s transactions was iucreased by 73,000 shares overt yorterday’s record, most of it being due to an increased busineas tn the truak rall- road lines, Oddly enough, the mainspring of the speculation was wound up in Chicago and the move- ment set going at that piace by telegraphic reports to she effect that passenger rates had been cut down trom 623 to $15 betwoen that city and Now York, sarily Mr. Vanderbilt was named as ot the head and front of the offending, and it was stated that he had cabled his instructions to this city. A fast train over tho Pennsylvania road which saves ibree hours of lume was the provocation for action, and on the princi- ple that “time is money” Mr. Vanderbilt proposes to the aforementioned road and go $8 betier in pus- senger rates in lieu of itucreased speed, this report was tacked on, like a rider to a c legislative bill, @ furthor ramor ‘acheme tor pooling earnings betweon the trunk Toads had come to an untimely end. Whether the ory was absoluicly true or one of those tales which “ies like truth’? was hardly known and imperfectly inquired into, operators being satisfied to seize greedily tart to the mar. ket, Such a start it unquestionably got, and it came in the shape of a general decline, which depressed the prominent trunk lines irom 3¢ to 2% percent, aod Jett the closing prices at the lowest ebb of the day, Supposing that these tales have not been invented en- tirely for the marine corps of the Stock Exchange, and thatthe chance of agreement among the anthra- cite companies ts equally uncertain, it would seem ‘that we are again upon the brink of @ railroad and coal war which threatens the stability of prices, Bunk upon any narration that woold give of Commerce stockholders voted redugo the capital from $10,000,000 to $5,000,000, by which step they will cut levy for taxes by one-half and hope to increase divi- fends tn proportion, A belief that thie result would follow marked the price of tho stock up to 110a 114, The matter of the issuing of special guaranteed stock by the Fort Wayne roud, which it is clained has been done in contravention of the rules of the Board re quiring thirty days? notice, and which hus resulted in ® suspension of dealings in the stock for the time Ddeiug, ts this afternoon bofore the Governing Commit- tee for examination. About $1,500,000 gold coin were pooked tor to-day’s and to-morrow’s shipments, with- out, however, affecting quotations, which remain at 1067, a 107. Therumors ect going to-day were an ab- solute godsend to speculation and acted like a steam pump upon a market which threatened to be speedily waterlogged, Rumormongera have little in common with the lilies of the valley, and though they toll vot and ordinarily spin nothing but destructive yarce Anent the value of properties they were to-day ro- farded with especial complacence as contributors to the spirit of speculation, lt wag to their tmagina- tion rather than to tho assistance of prominent pro- fessional operators and ouiside sympathy that the parker owed such activity as it evinced, TAK SALUS TO-DAY, The sales of active stocks to-day aggregated 234,255 buted as follows:—New York Ventral, 23,526; Erie, 1,200; Lake Shore, Northwestern, 3,106; do, preferred, 3,500; Isiaud, 16,700; Milwankeo and St. Paul, 1,250;-do. pre forred, 16,300; Pittsburg, 100; Delaware, awanna and Western, 41,885; New Jersey Central, 2,980; Delaware and Hudson Canal, 2,235; Morris and Kesex, 2,200; Michigan Central, 16,300; Hannibal ana Ohio and Missis- sippt, 900; Panama, 100; Western Union, 24,450; Pa- hares, which were di Bt.
