THE MARKETS.
A Lively Day Among Stocks on Wall
Street.
The whole Line slides Down and Then
slides Back Again.



New YORK, April 21,-The market opened
weak and under large offerings of Union
Pacific, Western Union, Pacific, ST. Paul, Erie
stock, and Erie bonds. The whole market
grew feverish and irregular. Union Pacific
was driven to 65}, but immediately rallied to
SO and hung about these figures until noon,
when rally set in carrying Union Pacific to
ga, nearly per cent. above tho opening, and
all the active stocks nearly gained the morn
inR's decline. Erie was at first very weak
upon reported selling OF stock and bonds by
London brokers. Oregon Transcontinental
was hammered by bears on stories OF serious
differences between President Endicott and
tho stockholders until these rumors were
officially denied.
The coal stocks, except Delaware, Lacka.
wanna and Western, seemed to be the special
object of attack in the afternoon. Bonds
were very active, West Shores and Erie
seconds leading in the trading.
The closing was fairly firm, showing an
average gain on Union Pacific 4, Delaware,
Lackawanua and Western /, and st. Paul
about as opened, while tho losses on Reading
were 4, Western Union a, Oregon Trans
continental per cent, Northwestern a.
Cotton brokers say they do not know OF
any combination to break cotton, and think
the decline at opening this morning Is due to
natural causes, viz, long and oyerbought
market, and a desire oil bulls TO reallZe prontS

In the grain market the shorts are covered,
and now, though tho market is easier, and

weather, as the storm signals are still up.

by the stockholders, and telegraphic advices
say it is not expected before next Wednesday.

A Cat That Preferred Elevators.

The printing house car had started
on its upward trip, and the elevator
boy was gazing upward into its fur
thest corner, evidently lost in revery.
Presently there came distinct call in
the shape Of plaintive "miaouw."
The elevator boy checked his car
forthwith on level with the floor
whence the sound proceeded. There
was no one to be seen, and the small
est boy would have been visible.
"Going up:" asked the elevator
boy.
"NIiaouw." was repeated.
The boy slid open the door, and a
gray cat walked demurely in, sprang
upon the seat and began licking her
paws until two floors had been passed,
when she uttered another cry and
sprang down before the doorway.
The car stopped, the door opened
and Tabby passed out.

"Where is she going now"
"She's jest dropping in to see Il friend

More Wonderful! than the Yellowstone

The wonders of the Yellowstone re-
cion are said to be rivaled, if not en-
celled, by the recent discoveries of
Professor Pumpelly's surveying party,
in Northern Montana. The region
explored is around the upper Medals
Pass, west of the Rocky Mountain
range, and about $50 miles north of
Missoula. Aside from the mountain
scenery there are three great natural
amphitheaters, in one of which Pro-
fersor Pumpellv counted % cascades
over 500 feet in hight, while on a
neighboring mountain is a true gla-
cier, having = frontage of at least a
mile, and in some places fall est

Northern Pacific Railroad runs near
enough to these new wonders to make
them easily accessible to the curious

THE OUTLOOK FOR LEADTHIS YEAR.

The best explanation which we
have yet seen land the correct one.
evidently, Of the sudden rise in the
price of lead, is given in recent
issue Of the New York Engineering
and Mining Journal, as follows
"The course of events in January
of this year was cratic. In the first
week, by manipulation, the market
was carried up to 4 cents, and few
days later the purchase, by West
ern firm, Of 1900 tons at 1870,
followed by some buying on the part
of dealers and consumers to the ex-
tent Of 800 tons in this market, car
ried the price nominally to $3.50.
This upward movement was, how
ever, short lived, the same party who
mad bought at s4.2O selling out, two
weeks later, at 81"
The journal quoted then discusses
the lead market at some length, and
concludes as follows. "The produc-
ton has, therefore, undoubtedly been
heavy, showing an increase of at
least 1000 tons. We doubt wheth.
or the consumption in 1883 was
greater than in 1882, when the coun-
try was moving along on the high
tide Of prosperity. The good Stats
tical position which the close of 1882
left the metal in has, during 1888
gradually become more unfavorable,
though the fact that the Richmond
Company did not go into the market
in 1888 to some extent counteracted
it's influence. Still the fact remains
that there has been an accumulation
and it is the knowledge of this fact and
the absence of any exact data as to its
magnitude which have been and are
still hanging over the market We fee
convinced that it has been much ex.
aggerated, and that any statement o.
the real amour: of stocks, if att ina
ble, would strengthen rather thar
weaken the market. That it is MOI
beyond attempts at manipulation
we have seen during the past few
weeks. The real danger lies not Sc
much in whatever excess may nov
exist, but what it may swell to during
the current year. We do not lool
forward to any falling off in the pro
duction; on the contrary, it is likel,
that, with new works now under full
hea,lway, it will continue to show pos
sibly an increase, especially if miner
are deluded into putting faith in
stability of values at their prcscn
level. There Is nothing discouragn.
IN lead at 3.9OW4 cents. Thus ia,
the general business interests of tn
country have shown nothing to war
rant the hope that we are to have
year of great prosperity. Those wh
closely watch developments are ia
from being sanguine, though man
look forward to brief period of i'm
provement in the spring. We are in
cined to look forward to the comm.
wear as one which will witness 10,
prices for lead; and the sooner pro
ducers prepare for that state Of affairs
the better for them.'
