The principal feature Of Wall street was the
government gold sale. About p m. II was re-
ported that tue government had accepted S5,-

advanced TO lis, closing at the rate Of lI45z

premium was paid for carrying; later, per
celt was charged for use. Cle-Tings, S4S, ,5OU,-
OOO. Bids for the government gold amount to
sl26Is OOO al from llS50lUO to ia 63-lOO; awards
S2,0OO,UOO at from ia 5O-lO0 10 la 6G-lCO. Gov
ernments were dull and fraction lower.
The stock IN .rket opened steady, and so con-
tinued until toward the close, when 1t was
strong and higher. Wabash was the strongest
stock on the Iist-the advance was caused by
the settlement of the difficulties VIII ch have
existed among the directors. Lake Shore nd
OhIos advanced = per cent. Among the in
yestment stocks, the New Jersey advanced
during the day to ll2A. The market closed
firm at about the best prices Of the y. The
upward movement extended throughout al
