DULL TIM ES,
10Th in the Departments and About Town
Only Rouiine BusIness Being Done.


The annual reports in the various De-
partments are being rapidly prepared. As there is
no special business being transacted, the gigantic
intellects have full play in colating the startling
facts which annually electrify the country Usu-
ally at this season of the year the Cabinet OIL
GERS have returned and the public business is
going on with rush. Now all the
members Of the Cabinet are away from the
the city except Secretary Kirkwood, and only rou-
tine business is being transacted. All the Depart
ments have acting Secretaries, who are authorized
to sign papers in the absence Of the Secretaries.
There are, however, matters which require the
personal attention of the Secretaries and these
deferred until their return The business which
requires the personal attention of the President is
Of course necessarily postponed; but nothing Of
very great Importance has yet arisen, and at the
Departments 1t is said that the public business
HAS NOT SUFFERED ON THIS ACCOUNT.
The hotel el-keepers and others who are pecuniarily
interested In having the city full OF strangers look
forward to very dull fall There is nothing to
cause the usual influx OF strangers this year. and
the rush will not begin until Congress meets. The
summer season was an unusually dull one, and
the prospect is that II will continue until late in
the fall. Dnring the Yorktown celebration slight
boom is anticipated, as II Is thought that nearly
all the visitors will find their way to this city
But the ubiquitous politician and the hangers
ON will be q wanting quantity in the elements
that go to make up life at the National Capital
The long continuance Of the dull season will bal
ance the rush which began before the .4th Of
March and continued up to the hot weather, max
lug one OF the most prosperous seasons ever known
to hotel and boarding house keepers in this city.

Henry Hart says he is bulling Pacific Mail for 49,
lie says the business Of the line Is large and re-
munerative, and the Central America trade is
simply booming. Mr.. Dowd's friends say that the
Hannibal and ST Joe lawyers will to-day ndvise
against the issue of new stock against the con-
vertiblc bonds, and unless the shorts settle pri-
vatey they will have to climb for theirstock at 400
or 500 The 100 shares sold yesterday at 800 by
Ford and was bought by Cox. Ten shares sold at
400 or 400 for the lot. The Manhattan Elevated
people claim that the New York Elevated will not
succeed In recovering control of their property,
and say Manhattan is going TO 80 again.
The Central Pacific people say there will be a
great rise In their stock later on, and there are
large orders in the market to buy II IL II should
decline The bulls generally believed In a rally
IN the market to-day which would hold. The
