There was nothing in the quiet opening of business that persaged the excit- ing events which oceurred in three-quarters of an hour. As was to be expected, the first prices made were below yesterday's figures and Sugar,which had made the greatest ad- vances, showed some weakness, opening at a decline of % per cent. Some holders of the stock started to take profits and a few timorous bears held onto the falling market, bearing the price down to 8. Then by eights and quarters the price of Sugar " moved up gradually to 93. Meanwhile, the short interest was cover- ing cautiously, for there was nothing In the situation affecting Sugar to account for this abnormal rise save the heavy buying which came from all around the pool and it was not unnatural to expect a break at any moment. But the break came and stop loss orders were met, which being executed swelled the volume of purchases. Then it seemed to dawn on the belated shorts that a “squeeze” was in progress and they rushed in to buy on the best terms they could. Now came the climax, and, moving up 1 per cent at a time 98 was touched, 983, 99, 99% and 100, the excitement at this time being immense. Par seemed to be the goal which the manipulators of this corner had set to themsclves, and with equal rapidity the stock broke to 91, but a rally to 93% was quickly made. All 'this had been accom- plished before 11 o'clock, and by noon when the price had dropped to 93 all the previous excitement had died out. During the after- noon the shares sagged off steadily and in the late dealings had receded to 90%, closing at 90'%, a decline of 9 per cent from the best of the day, leaving only a gain of % per cent on the day's transactions. Sugar ted preferred, after an opening decline of 1% | per cent o 89, sold up to 92, reacting to 89%. It was reported that a bear short of 25,000 shares of Sugar common was forced to sell at 100 and other short contracts were settled at the same figures. Certain It is that those who were short of the stock were for the moment at the mercy of the manipu- lators of the deal and had {0 sue for terms. The Kean clique is given the credit for the operation, which was one of the neatest engineered on the stock board for some time. The general market opened a fraction lower and in the early dealings the actiye list reacted % to % per cent, the latter in Louisville & Nashville, while' Lead broke 2 per cent, but quickly recovered half the loss. All the other shares, which had receded also, made some recoverics. The experience the shorts had in Sugar made them timid and they began to cover their lines generally, which caused an appreclation in value all around, the industrials showing the most gains, with Chicago Gas In the lead and Dis- ulling and Western Union also promi- nent in the improvement, which ranged from 1% to 1 per cent. With the break in Sugar the rest of the Industrial and the rallway list became h and a reactlon occurred in which most of the advance was wiped out. The speculation during the afternoon was weak in tone and except about 1 o'clock when an upward turn was taken, the tendency was toward a lower range of values. The dealings were irregular fn the last hour, but in the main were heavy and the market closed weak, with a majorfty of the actly list % to 14 per cent lower than the close yesterday. The railway and miscellancous bond market was strong all day on a large volume of business Post says circums As usually happens under the wild movement in had no good Influence on the general murket in the first hour, and while this on- slaught was rushing from 88 to par, thence k to 81, prices of other stocks sold fractionally “off. In the last hour came other declines. Nevertheless, the stock market generally showed considerable resist- g power, and though the tendency to take profits everywhere was very stroug, after Sugar turmoil had subsided no great was made on prices, D to noon the sales of Sugar had reached the total of 100,400 shares and it Is reported the street that a private settlement was short contract for 000 shares at the top figures of the monring, 100, It was to corner these belated shorts that this iorning's drive was made and there was nothing for the gentlemen who had sold what they had not got but to go into the marke(, buy and deliver, or make terms to be dictated by the purchasers. 1t is very likely several cther short contracts were settled on the basls of par, which was the price set by Mr. Kean as a proper remunera- tion for his labor in sustaining the market for Suger. Another losson has the bee taught the bears In this stock w they i1l profit undoubtedly to a no gre degree than they have by previous exin of the of a clig Lo maninuiul property. After 11 o'clock Sugar br per cent to 93%, rall'ed 93§ per cemt, down to 52% and recovered to 93.

A delegation of Hibernians waited on the mayor and re- quested him to have the Irish sunburst dis- played. He replied that special privileges could not be given to any nationality. One of the delegation sajd, “‘Well, Mr. Mayor, are we to take that for a negative?” Mr. Schieren repdted: You yourselves must judge that.” One of the commjtteemen sald that the failure of Mayor Hawjtt of this city to fly the green flag killed him in politics and in- timated that Mayor ‘Schieren might meet he same fate. Mr. Sehibren replied warmly care nothing about Mr. Hewit's fafe, While I am mayor I shall not grant special privileges to any pationalities, Al shall be treated alike. = The Amerlcan flag is good enough for all Wmerican citizens.” — - uzzled {he Surgeons. NEW YORK, Maggh 6.—When Coroner's Physiclan Donlin made the autopsy at St. Vincent's hospital on the body of Thomas Hines, who died iM“the institution of a fracture of the skull‘the doctor found that the dead man was the subject of a very pecullar and rare malformation, known as Siamese kidneys, the palr of organs being Joined together by a tube of fleshy substance ough which there had been complete ulation.

TUESDAY, March 6. Receipts for the past few days compared with the first two days of the week show a decrease of about 700 cattle and 3,200 hogs, while sheep supplies have what over 800 head. Cattle supplies everywhere were than anticipated and the market felt it An even 100 loads were received lere, or somo 500 head short of last Tuesday's run. Aside from this and the better reports from the east conditions were but little changed, both shippérs and killers being after the cattle and apparently being more anxlous to get them than on Monday. Trade has been so slow and unsatisfactory of late that sellers are quick to appreciate any im- provement in the demand and lost no time In getting rid of their holdings today, gen- crally at fully steady to a shade stronger prices. As a result the movement wa liveller than for several days and by noon a very good clearance had been made. The proportion of cows and mixed stock on sale was not large, and the offerings in- cluded some very good fat stock. The d mand was good and buyers soon bought up the 25 loads on sale at good, fivm [ric Cholce fat cows and heifers sold up to and there was nothing of any conscquence; however, thin and poor had to sell at under $1.75. The trade in calves was active at fully steady prices and no weakness w observable in the market for rough stock of all_kinds. Trading In stockers and feeders was mostly in odds and ends, buying being in a great measure confined to the regular dealers with a very limited outside demand. Prices showed pretty much the same range that they have for several days back. choice feeders are quoted at from $3 to $3.30; fair to good at from $2.75 to §3, and lighter, commoner grades at from $2.75 down.

Nine or ten thousand would not have surprised them, but, as it was, less than 6,000. head were recelved, or more than 3,000 short of last Tuseday's supply. this reason the market opened firm. Fresh meat dealers were anxious to fill their orders and speculators did some business. Fair to good hogs of all welghts sold early at $1.75 and $4.80. Both hogs and provisions were lower in Chicago, and this soon caused a reaction. Packers bid $4.70 and §4.75 and at these figures trade was so brisk that they gave the screws another twist and would not bid over $4.65 for anything. At this point trading practically stopped and at the close there were several loads on which sellers would not accept the price.

NORFOLK, Va., March 6.—A party of re- porters chartered the lighthouse tender David B. Hill and went down the river in search of President Cleveland and party. As the boat approached the president’s craft the president, Secretary Gresham and Captain Evans craned their necks for several min- utes looking at the name of the little vessel in amazement. The president looked as if he thought the matter might have been a put-up job, but the reporters aver it is merely a colncidence. The president stated that he killed about thirty ducks and twenty geese and swans. He declined to speak about congressional matters and merely said he had heard that the Bland bill had passed the house. The party are all reported well, WASHINGTON, March 6.—President Cleve- land and his party arrived at the wharf here at 1:28 p. m.
