NEW YORK,
Ispecial Telegram to the Globe. l

New YORK, March 24.-The market
opened this morning with free selling of
Erie seconds and Manhattan Elevated. Then
came break in the coalers and st. Paul, and
it was difficult to perceive
any strength in any quarter.
The bears were jubilant and appeared to
receive no opposition. There was hardly
rally and the market at times became decid-
edly active. Pullman was quite lively, de-
clining to 1.13. The trunk lines were sold
right and left. Erie touched the lowest fig
ures reached in years. The Vanderbilt prop
critics were without support. Mr.. Gould is
credited with having good deal to do with
the deal to-day. If so he is
probably inviting short interest.
Rumors were of course In order, and the
bears had it that the Central and Hudson
were about to issue a twenty-million dollar
5 per cent. terminal and betterment
bond. ST. Paul is still oversold and com
manded small premium for use. 1t is
quoted ex-diyidend this afternoon and sold
off at the last, being one of the most feeble.
There was no change for the better at the
end, the market closing in way that was
not at all encouraging to holders of stocks.
A BEAR DAY.
The bears have secured the supremacy to-
day and retained complete control of the
market from the opening to the close. Bulls
attempted to make diversion in their favor
during the middle hour by false report that
Trunk Line rates were to be restored at once.
The falsitY of the report was soon made man
ifest and the subsequent weakness was all
the greater. The Commack brokers were in
full force and sat heavily on the market.
There was no special feature noticeable,
Fluctuations did not differ much throughout
the list and the bulls made little if any at
tempt to check the decline. st. Paul sold
ex-dividend 80 per cent. Manhatten was
decidedly weak, under the growing convic-
ton that the pending decision will be un-
favorable to the company. The weakest
stock in the market was Erie common,
which had absolutely no friends. The de-
moralization extended to the preferred stock
and second mortgage bonds. Among other
reports was one that New York Central is
about to issue twenty millions new bonds.
This was denied Justify up to the close by the
clique brokers. Louisville and Nashville re-
ports show largely increased earnings per
mile. The Canadian Pacific is not earning
its fixed charges, Manitoba also makes very
bad showing. The market closes very un-
settled

Lindblom says: "We see no evidence of
legitimate demand for either wheat or
corn. When that comes and stuff moves out
we may feel like taking the bull side" Crit
tenden & Harvey say: ''The market
still acts weak and lower, but prices
are now so low that we do not

jority of their sales, and unless something
turns up to rally the market, we think, will
put out again at current prices and will then
try to work values lower. But on general
principles the market should prove purchase
now for a tnrn. If wheat continues to de-
cline we think corn will follow in a measure,
but on these weak places would buy. We
regard the summer futures as best purchase. -
Milmine, Bodman & Co. say: sWe see no
good reason why this wheat may not sell
below 90c May before the 1st proximo.
There may be panic in store for this stuff
before the end comes and will require some
thingof this kind to clear the murky atmos
phere which has surrounded the deal here ever
since the celebrated Keene corner. Still
we have now had a material de-
cline and some speculative reaction
would be in order at any time"

Attention.

We ask the attention of our readers
to the card of Howard fully which APP
pears in this issue. Mr.. Tully offers
pianos, organs and ieweiry for the
next thirty days cheaper by % per
cent. than ever before sold in the city,
and to those who are acquainted
with him it is unnecessary to say that
he means all that he says His stock
of jewelry, especially in the linz of fine
good, cannot be surpassed in tie
state, and they were selected with
special reference To the wants of the
Western trade. This j. not an offer of
"snide goods" nor is it bankrupt
sale of cheap jewelry, but it is Il genu-
inc offer of first lass goods for less
money than the same goods were ever
before sold west of st Louis. Parties
desiring something handsome should
call on Mr.. FULLY at once.
