A New York dispatch of last evening says:

tlnual rainy weather. Cotton goods in ir-
and lawns sluggish. Ginghans in good re-
quest and finn. Dress goods, hosiery and
underwear dull in first hands. Wooden goods
moving slowly.

per cent. Prime mercantile paper 5@6 per
cent. Sterling exchange, bankers bills steady

higher for 41]Ss and 4s.
Bonds-Railroad bonds in light demand.
State securities less active.
stocks-The stock market was generally
firm at the opening, but soon became weak and
decline of n to2k per cent. took place, in
which Central Pacific and Metropolitan Ele-
waited were most prominent. At the first board
prices began to advance and generally rose Ii
to per cent, while Indiana, Bloomington &
Western sold up So per cent from last nights
closing quotations. In the early portion OF
the afternoon speculation was unsettled aud
in the late dealings free selling movement re-
suited in decline of u to ~ per cent, Texas
Pacific, Lake Shore, st. Paul & Omaha pre-
ferred, Michigan Central, New York Central,
Union Pacific and Delaware, Lackawanna &
Western leading in the downward movement.
In the final sales a f1rmer tone prevailed and Il
recovery of e to 20 per cent. took place.
The Post says: The indications now are
that the holders of the larger part of the
$3.50 O,00O Of 6 per cent. bonds, called in by
the 102d call for payment, will apply for their
extension at 81 per cent.
The Commercial Bulletin says: The more
the treasury policy is considered the more it is
approved 1t now looks as if the time for the
| payment of the larger part of the 6s notified
| Tor payment July LIST aud for extension at SIX
| per cent would be extended, and it is known
| that the purchase OF Is has already begun in
the market for the purpose of getting the
| benefit of their extension at So per cent,
many holding that these 3X per cent
stamped bonds will run long time. But con-
sideratiOns respecting money were to-day over
| run at the Stock Exchange by reports aoout
| the trunk line poul. 1t was asserted the poll
| had gone to pieces and that Commissioner
| Fink had notified each company which was a
member of it to make its own rates. On this
trunk line railroad stocks were sold by the
| thousand shares without much regard to price.
| and other stocks, notably those of the coal
road, and Pacific railroads were freely sold. A
good part of the selling was for short ac-
| count, SO if there should be any mistake about
| trunk line pool affairs sharp reaction would
| follow.
