INDIANAPOLIS, May Id,
The week opened with active business In local
banks. The demand for money was less slug
gish than 1t has been for several days. Rates
unchanged at 769 per cent. Eastern exchange
was sold between banks at 5o075e premium.
Even at the latter rate the supply did not equal
the demand and currency was shipped.

And-s-hsIfs registered, and fours unchanged
Railroad bonds we're quiet but irregular.
State securities dull and featureless.
The stock market was weak, and showed de-
elining tendency all forenoon on a moderate
volume of business; after 1890 the market be-
came frmer, and prices advanced 1e to So on the
general list, and lie for Omaha preferred.
Union Pacific was feature, fuctuating over
wider range than other active stocks. In the
last hour the market was stronger, and several
stocks advanced to the highest prices of the day,
notably Louisville & Nashville, Lake Shore Cen
rral RACINE LacKaWannd, raul, OnlOu
ciHc, and Jersey Central. The closing leaves the
market irregular as compared with Saturday,
some being higher and some lower. The gen
eral tone Of the market at the close, however,
was stronger than on Saturday.
The Evening Post says: 1.-THE manipulation
of the Union Pacific, this forenoon, was made
4 apparent by the fact that the sale of 100 shares
was reported at 80 at the same instant that
oslo was bid. 1t is presumed the seller at % was
IN hopes Of brin ging out some stop orders at that
price and thus breaking the market. Under the
rnles of the board these tactics for depressing
the prices of stocks are prohibited, and upon in
Vestigation by the authorities the sale AT 50 was
cancelled. The incident served to show that the
depression in Union Pacific was artificial, and
was caused by the manipulation of the Sears.'
The transactions at the Stock Exchange to-
day aggregated 900 shares, as follows:
