WALL STREET YESTERDAY. coal stocks
were again the subjects Of the largest specu-
lation and decline. feversh feeling pre-
vailed until and after the close Gold re-
cedcd from 10 to 100 "a. Money on call
was supplied at 1-2 per cent. Com
mercial paper firm and a tribe more active.
Government bonds were in good demand
and strong.
FAVORABLE REpoRTs of the condition of the
crops in India have been received from Bonn
bay. The vast population that is solely de-
pendent on the native food productions
makes this question of supply one vs para
mount importance not only to the people
but to their government
The New JERSEY DEMOCRACY nominated
an electoral ticket at Trenton yesterday.
Speeches were made by Ex-Governor Parker
and Senator Bayard, of Delaware. There
was much enthusiasm, and apparently the
''Blue Hep's Chickens" aro undismayed by
The news from Maine.
CUpA appears to swallow her enemies.
Thousands of Spanish troops continue to
pour into that fated land, but they
never return to their native Spnin-they
disappear in the Central and Eastern De-
partments as if the forests devoured them.
The merciless policy Of the Spanish govern
ment toward its own people is in no way
more terribly displayed than in booming the
youth and manhood of the nation to certain
death in the fatal jungles of Cuba.
THE DEATH OF HENRY A. WISE will occa-
sion no surprise as it has long been antici-
pated, but the event recalls the stormy days
before the war, when he did so much to pre-
cipitate and promote the rebellion. His
stern policy toward John Brown and his
associates was the real beginning Of the civil
war, an event of comparative insignifcance
being magnified by his action and the action
of Browns admirers into the most potent
nntagonism Of the cstranged sections.
A STORY OF INDIAN MAGNANIMITY comes to
us this morning which in q measure dis
credits the reports touching the condition of
the hostile Sioux, of which it forms n part.
1t is not likely the Indians are overfed or
too we'll supplied with arms and ammuni-
tion, but they can fight such indecisive
commanders as Crook and Terry as long as
buffalo meat lasts and powder can be pro-
cured at the agencies with which to kill the
bufaloes and an occasional detached COM
mand like Clusters little force.
PROFESSOR HUxLEY's ADDRESS on educa-
tion at the Johns Hopkins University was
singularly clear and incisive document, not
only in regard to what it is best to learn and
best to teach, but also with respect TO the
future of the Republic. On the first OF
these topics Professor Huxley is so clear that
extended comment could be little moro than
repetition and Endorsement of his views.
The other subject opens up wide field for
discussion and speculation, and Professor
Huxley's views will command wide attention
from their comprehensiveness and force.
The WEATHER. To-day the weather will be
favorable for the rifle matches at Creedmoor.
With q northwesterly wind the sky will
be only partly clouded if not clear, and the
temperature will be pleasantly warm during
the hours of the match, so that our foreign
visitors will feel almost at home when they
MIN at the distant bulrs-cye. The low ba-
rometer which brought us the rain of SUM-
day night and Monday last has now moved
into the Atlantic, off the South Atlantic
coast, while an area of high pressure extends
over the North and West. Rains have oc-
Cured on the southern side of the Middle
States, and it is possible that these may con-
tinue during to-day on the coast of Southern
New Jersey and Delaware, and rs far south
rs Cape Hatteras. In the Southwest there
are indications of a disturbance which.
however, has not yet developed sufficiently
within the area of observation to enable us
