MONEY AND STOCKS.
Wall street to day has been the scene
OF more activity and animation than
for some time, and there have been
lively and speculative movements in
the stock exchange and gold rooms,
The bears Of the stock exchange OPEN
ed the ball with grand raid, chiefly
on Vanderbilt stocks, and the result
was general decline OF 2a4 per cent,
and considerable amount Of stock
was thrown overheard. The bulls
finally came 10 the rescue, which, In
connection with covering OF the bears,
turned the tide Of speculation, ana
caused partial recovery from the low
est point. Gold was also lively. It Is
estimated that about S7,000,000 have
been taken by prominent bulls within
few days, al low prices. n
