New YORK, Sept. Sit L. been a gala day for
the holders of stocks. For few moments at
the opening the market wsv> red and was a trihe
unsettled by the announcement that New York
Central had declared only a / Il quarterly divi-
dend, instead of the usual 2 pc; cent. Good
buying of ali the leading properties began during
the first hour, however, and continued through
out the morning. Union Pacific took the lead,
being followed by the Grangers and Wander
bilts. Western Union telegraph improved also,
and 1t was reported that it had taken the Bank
ers and Merchants company under its wing. The
market became active as the day advanced, with
considerable excitement. Pullman Palace stock
rose per cent, and the Lackawanna crowd are
not slow in bringing their fsvorite to the front.
In the late dealings stocks displayed much
strength. Chicago, Burlington s. Quincy was
81 points up from last evenings figures and
all the western lines were decidedly buoyant
The excellent weather with which the corn re-
gion is being favored, cuts small feature in
Wall street at present and has frightened many
into covering short sales.
The market held its own right up to the finish
and closed quite firm throughout
The banking house of Bell & Hatch, of New
York, in circular referring to the recent ad-
vance in stocks say the rise is out of all proper
tion to the actual or claimed improvement in
any quarter or commodity, except oil. Even the
wheat crop (the key note Of the advance) is off,
set by full crops abroad and wheat at the lowest
price in hundred years IL Eng
land. 1t cannot be expected that present prices
viii bring wheat out freely or encourage mer-
chandise movements westward. Depressing
traffic ana financial statements from the rail-
roads and the lock Of present business is best
evidenced by contest to reduce profits, to the fail
ure to securetwo-thirds consent to the stoppage
Of production rated necessary-frequent stoppage
In coal mining-the companies try to hold up
the anthracite combination against the serious
inroads OF bituminous. What the dry goods trade
is may be inferred from the consent of the cot
ton spinners to limit production. With the
present temper of the foreigners inveighing
against the speculative American director, any
considerable rise without improvement otherwise
must be met by flood of stocks and securities
rather than gold. The benefits from good crops
are admitted, [cotton is not promising at the
moment, but they do not assure immediate,
or any considerable, improvement in the
various interests on which a permanent and
strong stock market depend. Buying on ma
| nipulation which assumes and discounts all their
benefits is more hazardous than selling at the
| advance.

Mine Gazing.

WILKEsBARBE, Pa, Sept. 5.-The Enterprise
mine at Port Bowker, owned and operated by
Andrew Langdon, of Buffalo, was this morning
the scene of the most extensive cave which has
occurred in this region for years. Nearly one
hundred acres of ground settled from four to six
feet. The Lehigh Valley railroad tracks sank
five feet and traffic was stopped for some hours.
The air in the mine was driven with the violence
of an explosion, and forced its way out Of the
shaft, almost totally wrecking the inside work
ings. The ground is covered with seams and
cracks for several hundred feet, and the houses
belonging to the miners are wrecked. The mine
is ruined andis now full of gas. Water from the
river and the abandoned works near by is pour
ing through the fssures in the ground Five
hundred persons thrown out OF work The
owner of the mine refused $4,000, 900 last week
for his interest.

took place at the Enterprise mine cave this even
ing, which now embraces fully $50 acres, ex-
tending from Susquehsnna river up the hill 70
fanhouse Of the mine, distance of half mile
The fall of rock this evening is thought to be
enormous. Before all mules could be rescued
six were killed. Even if the mine is not flooded
it viii be az least year before it can be put In
working order again. The loss will reach fully
S5OO,00O.

1t is believed Admiral, Courbet, with the fleet
is near Hainan, out of the track of vessels, in
specting his ships after the engagement st Ke-
lung and Foo-Chow. The attack on Kelung was
prompted by desire to obtain possession of the
coal mines, which would prove extremely useful
to the French IN case war was declared and
neutral ports closed. The Chinese frustrated
this scheme by flooding the mines, and destroy
ing the pumping machinery.
PARIS, Sept. 5.-The newspapers say the
French forces in China will not confne their
action to the occupation of the island of Formo
Admiral Courbet, when reinforced, may invade
the gulf of Petchili. Dispatches from Hanoi

tranquil condition, and the French positions are
well defended.
II is reported that United States Minister Nor
ton has, with the knowledge Of Prime Minister
Ferry, intimated to the government at Washing
ton that the time is opportune for American
mediation between France and China.

The hog market was rather dull; prices un-
even and 56ll0c lower on an average. There has
been a sharp decline since Wednesday The best
heavy on that day brought So 66006 80, and to-
day only S65086. 65-with the quality nearly as
good as on Wednesday. For assorted light there
was little or no demand-a load or SO made S5. 25
@6.40. On Tuesday and Wednesday they made
S6.50@6.60. Common corn fed and grassers
have been quite well sold out, especially the
small pigs of $50 and thereabouts, and shippers
should not send this sort to market unless they
can be bought at extremely low prices in the
country, as there are no fixed values for the
same in this market and no demand that can be
depended on.
In the sheep market prices were shade strong
on everything that could be used for display in
the sheep trade. Common sorts remain dull and
as low as at any time.

MILWAUKEE, Sept. 5.-Wheat was dull and
stagnant to day, utterly without life. Quota
tations are fraction lower than yesterday and
trade still less in volume if possible. We see
no sign of returning speculation and look for a
dragging market with the chances in favor of
lower prices. Corn for this crop delivery is ex-
cited and one to two cents higher on lnanipula-
