STOCKS AND BO Volume of Business Much Wednesduy. NEW YORK, Aug. 16.—The volume of business on the Stock exchange today wis considerably heavier than cn yesterday, and tho speculation healthier in tone. Evidences of a broadening market were found in the increased orders received by the commis- sion houses, which report a growing inter- est on the part of their customers iIn the course of speculative values. There was a Jarger number of out of town buying or- ders on the board and London supplemented the advance In American securities on its own Stock exchange by sending over pur- chasing orders for a majority of the ar- bitrage stocks. As a consequence, the trad- ing was mainly on the long side of the ac- count, and the trend of prices was upward throughout the day, except for oceasional fractional reactions, due to realization of profits and small bear raids, which were Ineftectual and only led to fresh covering. The chiet speculation was in the granger shares, which were in unusually go:d buying in the bellef that with the final settlement of the tariff railroad trafiic is certain to bo largely increased by heavy shipments of goods from the Atlantic seaboard to the we St. Paul advanced 13 per cent, closed % per cent lower, Burlington 1% per cent, closed % per cent off, Rock Tsland 1% per cent, closing % per cent down, and Northwestern 1% per cent, with a final re stion of 3% per cent. The directors of the Chicago, Burlington & Quine in Beston tomorrow to take action on the dividend, and the large covering in the shares today would seem to indicate the bears be- lleve the regular dividend will be declared General Electrc made the grestest advan of the day, scoring & gain of 2 per cent on go:d buying induced by favorable reports of the company's business. There was a Qemand for Missouri Pacific at the second bosrd, which sent the shares up 2 per ceat, with & subsequent reaction of 1% per cent and a final rally cf % per cent, making @ net gain of 1% per cent. The other ad vances of the day were: Unlon Pacific and Denver & Rio Grande preferred 1% per cent, Colorado Coal & Iron 14 per cent Western Unizn sold up 13 per cent to 897 closing st a reaction of % per cent The Evenng Post says: The market was strong today, despite the falling off In the Velume of business, as compared with pre Vious days of the week. The granger group was the most important factor, and led the general list in polnt of advince and volume of trading. Metal brokers in the ity do not regard the upward movement 1o silver as indicating any pronounced change in conditions, being rather inclined to the belief that it s due to market fluctuations ugar 4id not participate in the gen eral buoyancy, being under the manipulation eavier than on ‘from. there by the ussoclation Of B1 carloads of oranges.

From this it will be noted that the receipts are running lighter this week than last, though have been higher and shipments ought have stimulated. CATTLE—The offerings of cattle of all ds were light, and there were only a few air to good corn fed steers In the yards The market did not w any material change as far as prices were concerned. The local packers wanted a few cattle and were ready to pay fully steady prices. One bunch brought $4, bu' everything sold below that figure. The market on desirable cows and heifers was firm, and there was a ver. fair demand. One small bunch of cholc spayed heifers brought $3.25. Common rough butchers' stock continues slow sale at the very low prices that have ruled for some time. The amount of business doing in the siocker and feeder market is limited, but still there is le more life to the trade than was the case a few days ago. The improved feeling appears to be due to he fact that there have been local showers in some sections of the country, which gives promise of improving the pasturage, and the further fact that receipts have not been very heavy for the week thus far.

The shippers were not quite so strong buyers, there being a lighter demand from the east. At the same time this was offset by the fact that the butchers’ strike having ended, the packers were in a position to buy more freely. Good to choice hogs sold largely at $5.10 to $5.25, with a top at $6.35. Pretty fair, light and light mixed hogs brought $4.76 to $5.

Mr. Sovercign sald he elieved the burning of cars was tha work of United States deputy marshals, He agreed with Vice President Howard that the only remedy for the trouble with railway employes wa the government ownership and op ration of raflways Secretary Keliher, when asked for his views 18 to the best metliod for prev. nting stril sald that he firmly believed government own \ip of railroads would solve the problem “Next' to that,” he continued, “I think com pulsory arbitration would answer.” “How would you force the railroads to abide by the arbitrat rs' decislon?” asked Mr. Wright. “By law,” pronptly responded ness. “Let the law be such that in case of trouble with its employes the railroad be compelled to submit the matter to arbitration Then let it be understood that If the rail- road will not accept the terms upon which the arbitrators decide the company will be compelled to go out of b iness. i o her vod , the raflroads should b compelled to abide by the decision, and as to the employes, if they are not suited by the decision, let them leave the employ of the company.’ B. B. Ray of Rock Island, T, was next called, He stated that the strike at Rock Island was caused partially by the Pullman strike and partially by the treatment he had recelved at the hands of the Rock Island Raflway company. I had gone west to visit my relatives, he said, “and when 1 returned I"was told by the Rock Island offic that 1 had been Qlscharged. 1 asked for a reason, and was told that it was because I was a member of the A. R. U. General Superintendent Dun- lap of the road said that I would be black listed and could never again work on hi or any other railroad. I was not a member of the A. R. U. at the time of my discharge, but have since joined that order.” Ruy agreed with Keliher that government ownership of railroads would prevent strik Ray favored a law, he said, compelling railroads to give discharged employes a doc- ument setting forth the rcasons for their dis- charge. At the conclusion of his examina- tion a recess was taken. Chairman Heathcote of the Pullman strike committee was on the witness stand during the afternoon session. He showed a table of the Pullman company’s wages, and claimed that wages have been cut 60 per cent in the last two Mr. Heatheote also exhib- ned was a black list issued by the Pullman offic requesting other in- stitutions to refuse to employ the men whose names appeared thereon. There is no doubt that George M. Pullman, Vice President Wickes, Gencral Managers Egan, St. John and other corporation offi- cials will be called. Whether they will te tify or mot is quite another matter. nt at point use he was lihor of stand of the Ike was ign of the the Des ve that when convention at ov the wit BIMETALLIC LEAG! NIFESTO. Tells the Senate Committee Their Remedy for th Prosent Depression. WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—President A. C Fiske of the Pan-American Bimetallic league, on behalf of that organization, has sent a notable statement to the special committee of the United States senate investigating the industrial depression and the remedy. He says: ““One or two more panics will find this country in the condition of Rome and other extinet republics when they went down. There was no necessity for issuing a govern- ment bond and every one issued, whatever the purpose may have been, has resulted in the robbing of the people to the full extent of the issue, Why should we be taxed from $50,000,000 to $150,000,000 a year for thirty yoars on bonds in order to maintain a bank- ing system which was conceived in sin, born in iniquity, nunured in conspiracy and ripened Into treason. Why should we be compelled to use a demonetized bank bill and a demonetized treasury note when the gov- ernment has the power to issue full legal tender money. With an honest issue of money the piople could not be plundered a billion or more dollars each year and there would be no occasion to pay those who con- spired to have this nation the repository of their surplus money $4,000,000 or $5,000,000 a year for taking care of their imaginary gold reserve. The bonding of nations and the jssue of demonetized currency are recent inventions, but many nations have of late years fallen prey to this nature of devic They must in conscquence repudiate or re- turn to barbarism. The creditors, who are confiscating the property of the nation, cry ‘inflation’ when the oppressed debtor asks | for honcst money, with free coinage of silver and the remonctization of the paper issues Inflation indeed, with 35-cent wheat, G-cent cotton, 2-cent beef, 50 cents for a day’s lahor. “our money will be ‘stable’ when the American farmer, planter and laborer are reduced to the condition of the people of India and the other serfs cf other countries under the financial dominion of old England. It s sincerely to be hoped congress is in carnest in Its efforts to ascertain the cause of the present disturbed conditions, and is ready and willing to apply the proper meas- ures for rellef, and that no further attempts Wil be made to deceive the people by dis- tracting their attention from the real issues, as has been done by discussions of the bloody shirt, the seal question, the for bill, the Chinese question, the Canadian rallways and canals, the omnipresent tariff and the proscription against one religlous denomination, known as the A. P move- ment, but that laws shall be enacted which will bring presperity to all the pecple In- stead of a very few. It would seem that congress las already leglslated in the in- terest of the creditor class far beyond the bounds of safety, and should take warning lest the people, who are fist becoming aroused to the real cause of the difficulty may take matters into their own hands and elect bith a congress and chief executive Wha will be their servants—not their mas ters, With that day will come real pros perity through the Introduction into our statutes of justice to all classes, which may be partially and briefly summarized as fol lows “The monetization All money issues by the governm All Qemonetized money to be called in and full legal tender money issued in lieu thereof.
