The Tribune says the general share market was
steady ct the regular board but prices not
tanned upon the street. Rock Island sold high
1881 in the face its decreased traffic, which
tinued through the year, which leaves the company
81 100000 short ofthe traffic of 1868. Erie sold at 9l@
and ! per cent paid for stock until Tuesday.
The market for most stocks is largely oyersod and.
but for the fact that the roads show large decrease
in traffic, would rise sharply upon temnt cover
the short contracts. The decrease in traffic which,
through 1866 promises to be steadily continued upon
the leading speculative roads is therOck upon which
buyers of stock at present rates will loan their money
in good time. Values must be governed by ability TO
earn not borrow dividends With the return of peace
traffic will fall to the point when dividends

be made upon 1.30s, or gold-bearing Government
