Y., Aprll 15.—The railway and miscellancous share market was strong thronghout,although the trading was on a smaller scale than yesterda; ‘The transactions were 150, 800 shares. Probably the best feature of the market was the increased interest taken in the raiiroad issues by commission and foreign houses. The buying by London firms was confined ma‘nly to St. Pavl and Louisville and Nashville, while local commission brokers were moderate buyers of the Grangers, Vanderbilts and Consolidated Gas. There were 50 some investment buying of rail- ‘way mortgages for both home and foreign account. Tl advanc n sterling exchange had no influ- ence on the market, and it is believed that gold e: ports ure not likely under existing conditions, un- less European bankers should elect to pay an extra commission.

CHICAGO, ILL., April 15.—The volume of trade in wheat was noticeably smaller to-day than it has been for some time. The shyness of the outside to take a hand is plainly apparent, the market de- | pending on scalping and local operations for its action. There were reports in California to hand this morning, on which prices managed to apprect- ate slightly at the opening, but the news and weekly weather bulletins of the other States gave a more encouraging account of crop conditions, and the early gain disappeared on the intelligence. Recelpts at Chicago were eleven cars, and 97,933 bushels were withdrawn from store. The Northwes: had 349 cars against 314 last Wednesday and 194 a year ago. Liverpool cables na steady.
