tl,inas be said that he believed In the
Old doctrine that to the victors he

weak and showed a decline on the
days transactions of 1s@2 per cent, Mis-
souri, Pacific, Richmond & Danville, Louisville
Nashville and Delaware, Lackawanna & West
ern being most prominent therein. Money be-
came stringent during the last hour and the rate
for call loans was up to IL per cent. Just pre-
vioas to the close as high as q per cent. per
diem and interest, equal to 81 Ier cent per an
mum, was paid in few instances The final rate
for call loans at the Stock Exchange was per
cent, plus 1-G2 of l per cent per day. After
nearly all borrowers had supplied their wants
money was bid up to g per cent PER diem and
interest, closing at 25 per cent. per annum on
dividend stocks and Is per cent. per diem on non
dividend paying stocks. There was undoubtedly
some money wanted by belated borrowers, but
ttese extreme rates were looked upon as chiefly
the result of speculative manipulation. Stocks
heavy and lower in the closing dealings on the
dearness of money.

cents per mile for passenger engineers,

hundred miles to be paid for at the same
rate; engineers running pushers to re-
ceive $50 per month; all detensions over
two hours to be paid for at the rate of
thirty-fve cents per hour. These terms
are somewhat under the original terms.
