Governments strong and higher. Stocks
opened strong at an advance from last

the market, and assisted by rumors that
the treaty had been publicly pronounced a
failure by banks, that the Bank of England
would probably raise the rate of discount
tomorrow, and unfavorable legislation at
Albany in regard to Pacific Mail, succeeded
/ in selling the market down from TO 3 per
! cent. The most prominent in the decline
were Pacific Mail, G. G. & 1. c., North

NEW York, May S.-The market is
generally inactive, although trade has some
what improved under the influences of
warmer weather. Prices are steady for
the most part, but there appears to be a
turning point in the price Of fancy prints.

cloths, the PacMc Mills have reduced their
prices for prints to lie to-day, which is
| only prelude to a reduction in the prices
| of all other makes. Harrisburg brown
sheetings are changed to lie for II brand,
12c for B do, and 14c for A do. On other
grades Of cotton goods there is no import
ant change TO observe.
