in Wall street with a feeling Of depres.
sion, under which there was decline In
gold, foreign exchange, Government
bonds, and railway and miscellaneous
shares. Soon alter the Inauguration Of
business there were rumors Of mercantile
failures. Money became closer, and the
bankers pressed the brokers to take up
loans which had been standing since the
panic. This started q selling movement
on Exchange, chiefly for cash, and the
general share list dropped from l to .1Oi
per cent. The greatest decline was in
Western Union, which was pressed In the
market for cash by q difficulty In making
new loans. This heavy decline dragged
down the entire list. Late in the day the
mercantile failures were denied. Rock

versally observed IS u holiday. The gate
receipts Of the Fair were $4,000. This
would make the number Of people on the
ground nearly, If not quite, 5000, fully
equal to any Thursday exhibition. Sue.
cess 10 assured beyond question. The
principal attraction Of the day was trot
between Goldsmith Maid and Glouster for
$4,000, but It being utterly impossible
with all tho police and special force or
ganized ior the occasion 10 keep the track
clear OF the immense throngs which fairly
overhowed 1t, only one heat was trotted,
and that In very slow time, neither driver
being willing TO risk his horse or himself
in such an excited and unruiy crowd,
Subsequently another trial was made in
the arena oil the amphitheatre, which was
witnessed by fully 10000 people, but the
circle was too short to show high speed.
The Maid took the purse OF course. An.
other race, Tor horses that never beat $40,
was won by Bob Hunter, owned by, Tom
P. Roach. The best time was $40, ona
hall mile track.
