siderable time all idea of trading was sus
pended, and an excited crowd gathered a,
the "Gold Room" corner, to discuss the
question in all its bearings, and very little
beside talk occurred during the remain
der, Of the day. The stock fell to S25,
then to S24, and finally closed at the
former figure. One well-known dealer
makes very handsomely by carrying fol-
other parties, and is in a fair way to
realize good deal more in transactions
maturing about this time. But he is gen.
orally lucky, or tolerably shrewd.
Before the close of the day tho Slaugh-
terhouse people, with invincible pluck,
were on the war path again. Rumors of a
bran new Injunction, that would CON-
ple:ely block the wheels of the butchers,
began to be whispered, and some
of the downcast ones resumed their
accustomed amiability, evidently con-
fdent!y hoping for speedy relief. The
learned and ingenious counsel for the
great monopoly don't appear to consider
themselves used up, and their last agrees
sive movement, made yesterday in the
Eighth District Court, will be readily
understood by reading the report in the
REPUBLIcAN's ''court" column.
The SIaughterhouse excitement diverted
attention from all other business We can
report but few sales in consequence; 200
shares Of Slaughterhouse were sold early
in the morning at s27 so, sellers option,
twenty days, flat. Between half-past
twelve and one, A shares went for S25.
Within half an hour about 210 were dis
posed of at S24; at three o'clock 100 We're
got rid Of at S25, and soon after another
100 at the same price. Up to one o'clock
Ship Island was offered at 500 without
finding purchasers, and at two o'clock
$3.50 shares were bought at ninety light
cents on the hundred dollars, face value.

Levee people have not lost courage
within the last day or two. They claim
advices of a highly encouraging character
from Washington; for instance, that the
Kellogg bill (recently published in this
oaper), loaning the company $40, 900, 900,
s sustained by the leading papers OF the
country, including the Herald, Tribune,
World and Times, of New York city; the
Press, of Philadelphia; the Commercial, of
and the Chicago Tribune. They
uriher claim for it the active support in
Congress of Morton, Sumner, Trumbull,
3enton and others in the Senate, and of
3utler, Schenck, Logan, Garfield, Wash
'urne, Allison. and others in the House.
hey Say that with these influences active
n its favor, the project must succeed at
Washington. They are apparently not
BILE to tathom the purposes of Governor
with reference to the bill in his
ands, but evidently expect final success
