early dealings prices declined from to

I per cent for regular and per cent
seller sixty in Delaware, Lackawanna

in coal roads had weakening effect on
the general market, which declined ! TO

Towards ten o'clock iirmcr feeling set
in, and there was II recovery of to ] :
per cent, New Jersey Central rising to sSs,
end Delaware, Lsckawan IN and Western

sharp upward movement in Pacific Mail,
which advanced from II to

by bidding for proxies for the
the approaching annual election and
the various rumors III regard to the prob
able result. After the second call the
Pacific Mail dropped from 2iA to 22s
which weakened the whole market.
Subsequently Pacific Mail recovered

InIIannnnIis Convention.


INDIANAPoLIs, May 1S.-The Cen
vention reassembled at $3.50 this morning,
and the following platform WINS adopted:
The Independent party was called in
to existence by the necessities OF the peo-
pie whose industries are prostrated, and
whose labors is deprived of its past re
ward, and by ruinous policy which the
Republican and Democratic parties re-
fuse to change, and in view of the failure
of these parties to furnish relief to the
depressed Industries of the country,
thereby Disappointing the just hopes and
expectations of a suffering people. We
declare our principles and invite all in.
dependent and patriotic men to join our
ranks in this movement for financial re-
form and industrial emancipation.
|. We demand the immediate
and unconditional repeal of the
specie resumption act OF January
l4th, 1875 and the rescue of our home
industry from the ruin and disaster re-
sulting from its enforcement and we
call upon all patriotic men to organize
in every congressional district of the
country with view of clecting represen-
tatives to Congress who will carry out
the wishes of the people in this regard
and stop the present suicidal and des-
tructive policy of contraction.
9, We believe that Upited States
note that is made directly by the govern
ment and convertible on demaud into
United States obligations, bear
ing a rate of interest
not exceeding one cent day
on each one hundred dollars and
.exchangeable for United States notes
at par, Will afford the best circulating
medium ever devised. Such United
States notes should be full legal tenoer
for all purposes except for the payment
of such obligations as are by the existing
CONTRACTS expressly made payable IN coin,
and we hold that it is the duty of the
government to provide such circulation
and restore 1t to the nation to whom it
belongs. .aE,.
8. 1t is the paramount duty of the gov.
ernment in all its legislation to keep in
view the full development of sll legiti-
mate business, agricultural, mining, ma
chincry, manufacturing and commercial.
4. We must earnestly protest against
any further issue OF gold bonds for sale
in foreign markets, by which we would
be made, for long period, hewers of
wood and drawers of water to foreigers;
especially MS the American people would
gladly and promptly take at par all
the bonds the government may
need to sell, provided they
are made payable at the option OF the
holder, and bearing interest at the rate
OF 8 IS per cent per annum, or even u
lower rate.
5. We further protest against the sale
of Government bonds Tor the purpose of
purchasing silver, to be used AS sub
stitute for our more convenient and less
luc,uating fractional currency, which,
although well calculated to enrich the
owners of silver mines, yet in ITS opera
tlons it will still further oppress with
taxation an already overburdened people.
A subsequent resolution against rail
road subsidies was also adopted.
The nominations on the fifth ballot
were: Peter Cooper, of New York, for
President, aid Newton Booth, OF Califor-
nia, for Vice President
The Convention adjourned sine die.
