THE NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
Irregular at the Opening and Closing

NEW YORK, February 2S.-The stock
market was irregular in the early dealings,
but at the first board the entire list became
weak and decline was recorded, ranging
from a to u per cent, the latter In
Western Union. Canada Southern re-
ceded So per cent, Northwestern, Delaware,
Lackawanna and Western, Hannibal and
81. Joe, both common and preferred 4,
Denver and Rio Grande 211, New Jersey
Central 51S, Union Pacific AZ, and Nash
vile aud Chattanooga 81 per cent.
About the second board speculation be-
came fSmer, and subsequently fell off a
fraction, but in the late dealings the market
again became strong and closed at an ad-
vance from the lowest point OF from 4 to
217 per cent, New Jersey Central, Canada
Southern, Union Pacific, Western Union,
Wabash Pacific preferred, st. Paul and
Omaha preferred, Louisville and Nashville
and Lake Shore leading in the upward
movement. The transactions aggregated

Now that the new funding bill is al
most morally certain to receive the sigma.
ture of the President and become law,
some of the objections most manfully
urged against it by the national bank
and capital interests seem to grow beau
tifully less. This was the case when
the four per cent. Certificates" were
foated. In advance of the operation
everybody was assured that nobody
would take them, butwhen they were is
sued everybody rushed to get them in such
pell-mell fashion that they rose swiftly to
a premium, and the supply was singular
ly inadequate to meet the demand.
The proposed new securities are free
from all taxation, they afford as safe an
investment as it is possible for human
wisdom to contrive, and they are made
compulsory as a foundation for bank
circulation. They must, therefore, be
issued, and they are so attractive that
they ought to be taken readily. In the
ordinary interchanges of banking opera
tions the great syndicate firms of the
country will be enabled, with the utmost
facility, to adjust to a hair the prices re-
spectively Of the three per cents, the
fours and the four and a-halfs so as to
make them yield the same interest,
and there will be abundance of time
to effect this readjustment between
March and July /. The New York
Journal of C0mneTee, in its Mondays issue
says that eve believe that. judiciously
managed, the entire amount can be
placed at the low rate proposed by the
House and adopted by the Senate. 1t
has not been possible for two years or
more to loan floating capital in Wall
street on government securities at an
average of per cent annual interest. !"
This journal also regards the short term
OF the bonds as an additional advantage,
enabling investors to put their money in
a perfectly safe security for few years,
in the hope that after that period more
profitable rates may prevail. In the
meantime they are sure of moderate in.
terest on the best possible investment.

THE BRITISH EMPIRE.
THE LEAGUE REPORTED GRAD
UALLY DISINTEGRATING.
The Irish Bishops 90 she People
The Arms Bill 10 be Called Up
TO-Day-The " Thunderer " on the
BOer VfctorT-PubIic Business De-
elared No Longer " Urgent.o

LONDON, February 2S.-In all the Lenten
pastorals issued by the Irish Catholic Arch
bishops and Bishops on Sunday, strong hope
was expressed that the government would
deal effectuallY with the land question at an
early date. The people were warned against
1JIning illegal combinations, but the strong
tst sympathy was expressed for them in
their trials.
In the House of Commons this afternoon,
before questions to Ministers, OF which
notice had been given, were taken up, the
Speaker declared that the bill for the better
protection Of life and property In Ireland
having passed the House, the state Of pub
lie business was no longer urgent.
The Times In its leading article says Gen.
Sir George P. Colley's defeat cannot seri-
Ously affect the military situation, as the
British main body was not involved in the
fight.
The Daily NeacS In its leading article says:
"Mr. Forster. Chief Secretary for Ireland,
has fixed Tuesday for the Introduction of
the arms bill in the House OF Commons. 1t
is said in well informed quarters that the
opposition in the House VIII participate on
Tuesday in fierce attack on the conduct
Of business by the government"
The Dublin correspondent of the Times
says: "The signs of disunion and weakness
in the organization of the Land League are
becoming more numerous under the contiau-
Gus action of the government. Many treas
urers and secretaries OF the local branches
OF the League have resigned, and are in
favor OF emigration. Payment of rent is
becoming general, even in the most dis
turbed districts, and there is little difficulty
now iu serving writs, owing to the exer-
tions of the Orange Commissions.
The removal Of the League funds to
foreign country is regarded
by the tenants with suspicion, and the alarm
of the leaders, who talked SO bravely when
they Incurred no risk, has also helped to
break confidence in the League. There are
unm!stakable signs of the Leagues being
rapidly disintegrated, and If the improve.
ment continues at the present rate the re-
turn to at least semblance of tranquility
will soon be general"
