of the shipping firm of Kilham,
Loud & Co., of Boston, is announced;
their liabilities are placed at four hum
bred thousand dollars. This failure is

The sock market opened at slight
decline from closing quotations of yes
teTday, the weakest stock on the list be-
ing Union Pacific. Later the whole
market became strong, and price adj
vanced to & per cent, that being in
Northwestern, the next strongest stock
being Wabash. During the afternoon
there was some slight reaction on Teali-
cation, but the favorable bank state
ment caused the whole market to close
firm. Union Pacific declined to 34EE, on
dispatch from Boston that the solicitor
of the treasury had made a demand for
the payment OF five per cent. of the net
earnings OF the company from Novem-
Der, 1863, to October, 1874; but recovered
later TO 353, on a dispatch from Boston
that the officials of the company state
fivs per cent. on the net earnings shall
be paid after the road is completed. The
officers of the road further state that the
solicitors claim will not stand in law,
from the fact the government commits
sion did not make their report until
October, 1870, and hence the road
was not completed in the
eye OF the law until this COM
mission declared it 90. Closing quota
