MISSOURI.

ST. LOUIS, April s.
Another large and very enthusiastic
meeting of business men was held at
the Southern Hotel tonight to push the
organization of the st. Louis grain as
sociatiOns. Speeches still further set
ting forth facts in connection with the
Mississippi route, its practica bility
and cheapness as an outlet to the sea
for all the great valley of the Missis-
sippi, we're made by Lieutenant Gov
ernor Stanard, Mayor Cole. Channey j.
Filley and others. Mr.. Filley, in reply
to an article in the Chicago Times cast
ing a doubt on his statement that for
eign goods can be laid down on the st.
Louis levies as cheap as they can be
brought to New York, produced circu-
lars from prominent Liverpool house
quoting freights from November to
February last at eight to ten shillings
to New York and five shilling to New
Orleans; the difference in the rates. 1t
is stated, will bring the freight from
New Orleans to st. Louis. Mr.. Fllley
further said as practical proof his asser-
ton that Purrell 81 Terrill, a very heavy
uueensware house of Chicago, import
tn ir goods via New Orleans because
they can do so much cheaper than they
can via New York.
j. II. Lucas, the wealthiest man In st.

the enterprise, and announced his pur-
pose to subscribe literally to the pro-
iect. Tho meeting was very spirited,
and adjourned to meet on Change daily
until the first 100000 was subscribed,
when the company will be organized,
directors and officers elected and the
plans of the association put into opera
ton. f. w. Fox predicted that the
capital employed by this company
would soon be increased to ten millions
OF dollars, and that not only all the
grain points OF the Mississippi
from St. Paul to st. Louis, but the
cotton ports OF the lower river and
Liverpool, Manchester, Birming-
ham, Sheffield and other English
and European manufacturing cities
would be interested in at once demon
strating that the great manufacturing
centres of England and the continent
can procure cheaper bread from New
Orleans than from any other port in
America, and money will not be want
ing to push this enterprise to its fullest
extent, and through it an immense inn
port trade will spring into existence,
and New Orleans and st. Louis will be-
come what they on ght to be, the great
receiving and distributing points OF the
Mississippi Valley.

MONEY AND STOCKS.
MoNRY-The market has bsen very
irregular to-day, and caused no little
surprise to borrowers. At the opening
of business call loans were made at 7
per cent currency and coin interest on
Governments and stocks, but as the day
advanced the market hardened and l-l6
per cent was paid again. Before 8
O'Clock there was apparently an easy
feeling, but it did not last long, and
very soon pressing demand set in,
which caused an advance to Z per cent
and a commission of 1S per cent, the
closing transactions being at these rates.
This changed the aspect OF the market
and gave rise to some uneasiness again
in regard to the future. The discount
market was dull and the best paper is
current only at large shaves. The
