THE STOCK MARKET.
Review of the Week In Wall Street and Closing
Prices.
C,oo;ol Tho National Tr;bupa

New YORK, Jan 30-Denver continued to
be the end of the pendulum of this market, and
the downward swing to-day was of consider
ably vigorous description, considering the fact
that such developments as come on the street
were of favorable character, and it would
seem rs if the stock bids fair to be killed by too
much good news. We are as yet however I'M
informed as to what the new board of directors
propose to do to change the intrinsic nature of
the company. 1t is little difficult to make
bricks without straw, and we are now anxious
to know where the straw is to come from in
this particular proposition. Not that we mean
to doubt that ii will come, but we are entitled
to some curiosity on the subject all the same.
The rest of the market sympathized in differ
ent degrees with the fluctuations in Denver.
The whole condition is local. When the ira
ders in the room get long they rush to sell
simultaneously and probably get short little
too much, then comes another rush to buy, and
the result is gentle milking, process which is
becoming less creamy and more skim every
day Barring accidents, we can scarcely look
for any developments in general business, until
the advent of spring trade, which should come
in two or three weeks. We are grateful to say
that we believe in both sides of this proposition.
and our gratitude is based on our attitude as
commission brokers, and we are therefore COM
PEELED to be grateful for very little money per
cent

We took a walk around the fur
mace the other day with Mr.. Will
Sleep, and Supt. SheIow. They
were showing US some OF the i'm
proponents that had been made
The first one was, where they used
to haul the limestone one mile and
a quarter with mules, it is now
brought by an engine. The same
engine hauls away the cinder from
the furnaces-this was also done py
mule power; and the same engine
now runs into the cast house, there
being four tracks laid through The
house; and the pig-iron is loaded
from the cast bed direct to the cans;
run to the weigh-house, and then
stacked on the yard orloadea on Gin
S. cars for Shipment. whereas, it
used to be carried from the plg-bed
by hand to the yard. These inn
provements will save in labor, about
10 mules, and 90 men. The Co.
nov is going to put in a steam
drill at the Limestone Quarry and
another $4,000 engine at the
furnaces. More than that, the Go.
won't sell a town lot at any price,
but will buy back property already
sold if they can get it cheap enough.

Levei-IIeaded Harrison.

Senator Ben. Harrison, of Indiana,
rather astonished an enthusiastic res
publican in Washington a couple Of
days ago who said that the Republi-
can party would reenact the civil
rights legislation in the shape of an
amendment to the Constitution.
Not as quietly as you think said
the Senator. 1t took an army with
bayonets to open the Constitution
for the war amendments. The pros
pect now is not assuring to a sensi-
BILE man, as it seems to me, for the
C of your idea The Senator
is right. The time for special legis-
lation in the interest of the negro is
past. He will get his right the same
as any other citizen, without the aid
of statutes and constitutional amend
ments.

Who Killed It?

&NOW6s
A report is in circulation to the
effect that the conyicts employed
on the So. Atlantic and Ohio rail
road have been moved for political
reasons. The report is without
foundation. They were removed
by the company solely on financial
grounds, the force being too small
to work to advantage. This infor-
nation comes from j. G. Oliphant,
the agent of the company.
Bristol Courier.
Capt. T. e. Bibb left on Tues
day night with his force of con-
victs for Lynchburg, where they
are to be turned over to another
company, This was ordered by a
telegram from President Hynd-
man, of Pa. An effort had been
made by certain readjusters to
displace Capt. Bibb, because of
his adherence to democratic prin-
ciples. The convicts would, dOubt>
less, have been moved before a
great while for other reasons, but
this political move certainly pre-
cipitated the action. "Liberal"
party, is it? The narrow guage is
dead for the present. What move
will be taken toward it's resurrec>
ton, we can not tell.
