A GOOD OPENING FOR THE REAR

GOOU OPENlNG THE BEARS.
New YORK, July 19.-The Posts financial ar
markets at the stock exchange opened with the
bears in apparently complete CONTROL they being
favored by another reduction in passenger fares
from New York to Chicago to $40 (the scalpers'
price being $780, and by continued demoraliza-
zation in the rates for through freight, which
appear to be about what shippers choose to offer.
Although these considerations should properly
affect the trunk line stocks more than
any other there was evidently strong buying of
them and the weak points in the market were
found to be Milwaukee and st. Paul, Denver and
Rio Grande and Jersey Central The first named
was made easy prey for the bears by the liquida-
ton OF the bull account in the stock and its dis
tribution. The price opened at lis, advanced to
l15S and then took sudden plunge to 11OLz,
making decline of 171S points within days.
Denver and Rio Grande fell from 1854 to 100.
for no other reason than that prominent men,
Der of the st. Paul pool is heavy holder of this
stock. Jersey Central fell from 95Z to 932.
From these prices there was rally of 2as In st.
Paul, 81 In Denver and Rio Grande, and IL in
Jersey Central The trunk line stocks have been
thrown over freely by the general public,
but have been taken by some one SO readily
that prices have declined but little, which has
been the experience of the last few days; and on
which rests the belief which is growing stronger
daily, that the buyers are those who have con-
troll over trunk line railroad affairs. The Gould
stocks have simply been sustained, and it has
been comparatively light work, as those who
are the chief sellers Of the market, aside from
frightened holders, who have been unloading,
do not appear anxious to put themselves in po-
sition where the controller of the stocks can
consider them fair game. The whole stock mar
ket is yet in q very feverish condition. United
States bonds are generally % lower to-day.
State bonds are dull and steady. Railroad bonds
are down 1a24k, the latter Chesapeake a1d Ohio
currency Is; Ohio Central frsts are down IL to

declines are fractional. The market for foreign
exchange Is veal, but dull

special dispatch to the MY. World from
Philadelphia July 49, says Another death from
cholera, across the river i'm New Jersey. has
given rise to a fear among physicians that the
disease may become epidemic if strict attention
to sanitary matters is not enforced by the board
of health. Rev. Timothy Thorney. aged 81 years,
died on Sunday after an illness of III hours ac-
cOmpaned by all the well-known symptoms Of
true Asiatic cholera DIR. G. V. Schenck,
one of the most eminent physicians i'm Cam
den, and who had experience in the epi-
denies of 1S49 and 1866, was called upon
to attend the patient on Tuesday morning
and was forced to conclude that he was
afflicted with something more serious than
cholera morbus. Il am not an alarmist," said
the doctor this evening, land 1 dislike very
much to appear in the light of anything APP,
preaching one. But candidly speaking. Mr..
Theneys case was similar to that of Jas. Dunn.
who died a few weeks ago of Asatic cholera.
fear that both cases were due to atmospheric in
1uences and not to careessness i'm diet" DIR.
Marcy, another well known practitioner. was Of
the opinion that the cases mentioned might be
the forerunners of an epidemic, although he
deprecated the idea of spreading such an opin-
ion. Mr.. Thorney was a well-known and highly
respected clergyman in the Methodist Church for
the last sixty years.

PROTECTION FROM THE OFFICE SEEKERs-The
terrible strain to which the President and the

office seekers will probably lead to the adoption
OF some rules to which candidates for office will
De required to conform, and which will do away
with the bore of personal opportunities for place.
Since the 4th of March the President and Secre-
tary Blaine have been constantly harassed by
place hunters-in the case of the Secretary of
State to such an extent that he has been COM
PEELED to transact official business at his house
instead of at the department.
