the close, was buoyant and further sha1p ad-
vance in prices was recorded on reports to the
effect that settlement of the railroad war was
near at hand, coupled with the order from Sec
rotary Folger, the stated demand for stocks gen
orally and their large purchases for both long
and short account. The greatest activity was in
Chicago, Milwaukee 4 st. Paul, the Southwest
ern, the coal shares, Northern Pacific, Western
Union Telegraph and Denver & Hio Grande.
The Evening Post says: Very urgent kilograms
were sent West to-day, among others one from
Jay Gould to Alexander Mitchell, asking that
conference be held to settle the railroad war.
Shortly before l o'clock it was reported that
these efforts had been successful and confer
ence would be held. We have been unable to
verify the report, but it was generally credited
and it had the effect to arrest the downward
movement In stocks aud cause an advance of la
points.
