WALL STREET,

WEDNESDAY, May sop.
The stock Market like house erected upon unsta-
blefoundation continues from day day under
tho weight Of supervening dulness What Is worse.
there appear to be bulls with heart enough in the
matter to attempt to "shorc up the hiking fabric OF
prices, and consequently at the close Of each day
lower mark s affixed TO the list of quotations To-day
has been exception 10 tho rule Tor prices havo
faded away from sheer neglect and want OF support.
Some little stir created In the ST. Paul shares early
IN the morning by tree offerings OF long stock on the
part OF an old conservative commission house, and the
conclusion was at once jumped ut that something had
gone wrong; there appeared to be nothing more sor-
ousthc matter however than the purchase OF branch
line by the ST. Paul Company, which, IL Is claimed,
will add greatly TO tho traffic OF the latter conocrn.
There was further break away in Wabash OF ~ per
cont due the legal steps being taken for the APP
pointncnt OF a receiver and to the belief that the
recent reconstruction scheme viii have TO DO recon-
structed before the company can be placed nrmy on
its legs again. Proxies beng asked for in the in
tercst Of new board OF direction for tho Pao nc Mai
Company Strong efforts will DO mado to GUST the
present incumbents, who are charged with malad-
mnistration OF tho companys affairs, particularly in
regard to the purchase of the Panama Transit Com
panys ships at exorbitant prices The election will
be held on tho goth inst, and lively tmo may DO
pccted. The market utterly without interest
and closed dull and neglected as had been tho case
the entire day.

The rawberry and ice cream
festival for the benefit of the Blue
Ribbon reading room attracted a
very large audience at Union Hall
last evening. The tables were
beautifully decorated with ever
greens and flowers, and were pre-
sided over by many of Los Angeles
fairest bellies. Ice cream, lemon
ade and awberrles. served by
charming young ladies, and eaten
while listening to the strains Of
sweet music, certainly was high
order of enjoyment. The tele-
phone, one end at Union Hall and
the other in the County Court
room across the street, was quite a
centre Of attraction; and bits of
songs, scraps of poetry, and instru-
mental music, were uttered in the
delicate diagram of the telephone,
and heard with varying distinct
ness by the listeners. We are in
formed that the affair was finan-
oial success; it certainly was other.

The movement to replace Chi
nese with white labor has been
cordially adopted by the Messrs.
Bowen Bros. the enterprising yeast
manufacturers who have offered
the attractive premiums to young
ladies detailed in our advertising
columns. OF the Mossrs. Bowen
Brothers the last number of Re.
sources Of California says the fol-
lowing pleasant things,s which we
cordially endorse:
To illustrate this fact we might
mention number of enterprises
conducted with boys and girls as
employees, hut will mention one
that is assuming q magnitude that
is prOportionate to its Importance
in our midst. We allude to the
Yeast Powder Mandatory of
Messrs. Bowen Bros. When they
entered into this business the in
creasing success of which is max
ing that firm well known, and

success, they found it in a
crude condition, and the mechan-
ical part of the work performed for
the most part, by Chinamen. "A
forty gallon beer barrel, awkwardly
arranged as q mixer, worked by
hand, gave place to one capable of
working four times the quantity of
material with the same amount of
labor. Soon another innovation
upon the old style of manipulation
was introduced, and the greater
portion of the primary work is now
done by machinery run by an air
compressor engine. Eight China
men who performed the greater
portion of the manual labor, have
given place to an equal number of
white girls, whose ages range from
fourteen to nineteen; and We are
glad to remark that The work per-
formed gives perfect satisfaction to
the employers. We are more than
glad to chronicle this fact, and we
know that the community will
unite with us in congratulating
every establishment that, by pur-
suing such course, contributes
both to the welfare of the commu-
nifty in a moral and social point of
view, as well as eievates the femi-
nine characteristics of those who
otherwise might be compelled to
encounter too many of the dangers
Of our social system.
