The figures for the tonnage of the company for the
last year, compared with that of the pre-
TRIBUNE OF December 8, ana do not need TO be
repeated the full report giving no additional in
formation excepting in dry details of little interest
to the general reader.
The stock speculation to-day opened strong, with
prices generally higher than were the last figures
of yesterday but after a prcttyt lively cover
ing of the short interest during the first hour,
the movement became irregular. and the figures
showed less confidence in the permanence of the
advance than did the active buying late Yesterday.
In fact, there is nothing at present affecting the
market beyond the dealings of brokers and such
promiscu0us traders as operate without compass
aud only upon the appearances of the market, and
are easily prcycd upon by their more astute
ates The business of the day amounted to more
than 100 900 shares less than the business of yes
terday covering transactions of 900, 100 shares
Among the strong stocks those of st. Louis and
San Francisco wero still conspicuous. while
there also was a marked Improvement in
the final prices of Chicago. St. Paul and
Minneapolis. Oregon Railroad and Navigation,
Mobile and Ohio and Ohio and Mississippi preferred.
Erie outnumbered all others in amount of transact
sactions, and at time sold as high IL a. but II
later declined to 40os and closed ut AIS. Lake
Shore and Michigan Central show fractional gains

Among the final declines, which do not exceed u
per cent are those Of Western Union. Atlantic and
Pacific Telegraph Louisville and Nashville. Nash
vile, Chattanooga and st. Louis and tho coal
stocks. But the declines were as featurecss al
were the advances. The market closed dull and
irregular.

SHERMAN is certainly giving silver a
show, and we are willing to give him the
benefit Of that fact. A Washington dis
patch says that orders for standard silver
dollars are increasing daily. Four-fifths
Of all orders are from the West, and the
Treasurer says he is doing all he can to in
crease the general demand, except to offer
. chrome with every dollar. He thinks the
country can swallow fifty millions without
symptoms Of indigestion. By advice Of
Secretary Sherman he is now sending out
fifty thousand circulars calling attention
to the facility with which silver dollars can
be obtained by sending exchange on New
York from any bank. Any man with credit
in q bank for 81, 900 can have silver deliv-
cred free Of charge, and in this way coun-
try banks can get their exchange cashed
without expense.
