NEW YORK. Jan. 9.-At the opening this
morning the market was subject to reactions,
but gave indications of going higher. Ac-
tive stocks opened generally at slight ad-
vance on last nights closing prices, and
there was no lack Of bull points 10 buy them
for rise. Go lid was said to be supporting 2
his own stocks. and shorts were covering in
the Changers and Vauderbilts. The SAN
guine ones said there was new blood in the
market, now that Chicago was buying lib
orally and that prices were going higher.
Gould or no Gould the bears predicted that
the advance would not hold. Still the shorts
seemed anxious to cover, and-are trying to
do so without putting the market up on
themselves. Gould brakers said that Union
Pacific and Western Union could safely be
bought on the breaks. Deacon White said
he had bought stocks lately and was holding
tn IN for more than two-cent rally. Jones
said he was a bull for the rest of the
year, and thought stocks a purchase.
S ayback was going all around the room bid
ding up stocks. Cammack is said to have
covered his shorts and has gone south. In
u. L
wise buying on every break. Its earnings
are expected to show an increase from
now on unless impeded by snow blockades.
There was large buying Of this stock this
morning By parties in this city and else =
where. 1t Is noted that Mr.. Morgan is bull
on the market for about TO per cent. A
director OF the Chicago & Northwestern road
nf hOu
$780, and perhaps more, and he says
the increase will continue over last year
as long as there are no snow blockades.
Russell Sage is very confident OF the sitis-
ton and says he has resumed the selling OF
privileges on a large scale In Lackawann q,
New York Central Union Pacific and West
ern Union. The latter are sold as puts very
close to the market About midday there
was some free selling of Delaware & Lacka-
wanna and Lake Shore. This had depress
ing effect all around, and the feeling became
4 trile fcverish. The market was consider
able of puzzle during the middle hours, at
one moment strong, then weak. Union Pa
cife fell to 4S about 2 O'Clock, and Lake Shore
was pressed for sale. The Pennsyl-
vania and Baltimore & Ohio were
said tC be making arrangements
to pool all coal business on basis Of 55 per
cent. to the former and As per cent TO the
latter. Pullman sold at l09@lO91l. The
market closed unsettled with quite fever
ish feeling on the Vanderbilts and not much
conf ience felt in the solidity Of the rest.

MRS. MYRA CLARK GAINES
Death of the Famous Litigant Last
Night at New Orleans.
The Suit Which She Carried On Against
That City for Forty Years.

New ORLEANS, Jan. 9.-Mrs. Myra Clark
Gaines, the famous ltigant, died at 1l:10
to night, aged eighty years. The first
suit brought by Mrs. Gaines (then Mrs.
Whitney, was against the trustees for
some property left her by her father,
Daniel Clark, under bic will Of 1911, which
had then been probsted, but eventually aban-
doned, as she claims TO have discovered proof
Of later will in which she was recognized as
bis sole heir This will was never produced
I'm court but man named Francais Dusnan
de La Croix, an intimate friend
Of Clark, testified it had been read to him
by Clark himself short time
previous to his death, and he was told It
would be found after his demise in little
black box in a room he occupied. AS soon
as Clark died De La Croix looked in the box
for the will, but failed to find #. This, how
ever, was the basis of the claim which she
has prosecuted for forty years against the
city and others who had purchased property
Of Relf e. Chew, administrators under the
will Of 1911.

CHICAGO, Jan. 9.-The business at the
banks to-day was quite limited and dull, yet
nobody WAS discouraged. 1t is no doubt true
that the late improvement in hope and good
feeling ia the business would have been
much more rapid than the improvement in
the volume of actual business transactions.
yet thought always precedes action OF prof
liable character, and it is quite step in ad-
vance to get the minds of the people into a
sound, healthy condition, even if external
bettermcnt does not keep pace with the in
ternal, and this appears to be about the actual
situation at present. New York exchange
was quoted at 40 cents premium. with fair
outside demand. Orders for shipments of
currency were light, while receipts were
pretty good. Sterling exchange vas S4,SlX,
Q14.S51z bank clearings were $S,2SS, 900

In the year 1892 there were only

A writer to the Detroit Free Press
says that General Grant believed in
1876 that Tilden was fairly elected"
and says: "Grant never had any
sympathy with the movement to put
Hayes in, although he would have
maintained order in Washington
against any attempt in the direction
Of anarchy upon the part of the dis
appointed and outraged Democrats.
He favored the electoral commission
because he believed that such a com
mission would result in establishing
officially the result of Mr.. Tilden's
election. He his often said in private
conversation that he wondered how
any man could afford to accept the
Office as Hayes did, with the faint of
fraud attached to the manner of his
acquiring it."

The Religious Telescope, of Day
ton, the organ of the United Breth-

party. Short, but 81 true:
1.-THE Republicans have nomina-
ted a man Of high personal character,
who, two years ago when a candidate
for the same Office, by opposing the
amendments then before the people
practically gave his influence for free
whiskey. The appearance of that
party now is that of an honored old
man trying TO ride to town on an old
political horse with a sack on his
back containing free whisky in one
end and a faint wish to tax it, and
trying to batter the head of temper
ance as it pokes itself out of the
other end of the sack trying to make
its escape"

The Last of NIahoneisn.
Toledo Democrat.

Virginia Republicanism is a queer
kind of compound. 1t is a little differ
ent to Republicanism in other locali-
ties. There are Republicans in and
Republicans outside that State. For
instance, in Maine and Kansas we
have otal-prohibition Republicans,
while in New York, Pennsylvania and
Michigan we have liquor-drinking Re-
publicans.
But "Republicanism" everywhere,
except in Virginia, boasts of the strict
est construction in the payment of
debts, while Virginia Republicanism,
clasped in the arms of a Confederai e
Brigadier, is a party of reputation
and dishonesty. Then, again, Repub-
licanism travels everywhere else I'M
der a mask of Civil-Service Reform,
while in Virginia it cuddles under the
dirty blanket of Federal black-mail
with Malone and Riddleberger.
1t is proper to say that Virginia Re
~publicanism is disowned and repudi-
ated by the better portion of the par
ty. Malone and Riddleberger are
looked upon as unavoidable nuisances,
like c%roton-bugs in a kitchen or mos
quitoes in New Jersey. Decent Re-
publicans in their own State will have
nothing to do with them. Yet, bad
and offensive as they are, the Repub-
licans at large r very glad to have
their votes in the United States SEN
ate and would gladly use them as the
means of selling OIL ome of the local
Offices in Virginia.
The Malone Republican Riddle
berger Convention vas a tame affair.
The fiery little Malone, although
striving to raise himself out of his
boots, is evidently disheartened by the
loss of the Federal patronage. He can
no longer work the Navy-Yard. The
post-ofices are passing out of his
hands. This knowledge depressed
the Richmond Conventionists and, ex-
cept in their squabbles, made the bust
ness very dull. Mahoneism is prepar-
ing for a funeral, and the sooner it is
buried out of sight the better pleased
all reputable people will be.

LONG BRANCH, July, 15.-Mr. John
Mclean of Cincinnati, who is now at
Saratoga, spent nearly a month here
before going to this Aforementioned
place. An Ohio gentleman here who
is familiar with Mr.. McLean's pro
%jects, says that he is making a big eff
fort to control the next Ohio Legis
lature. The Legislature which is to
be elected this fall will have to select
q successor to John Sherman. This
same Ohio gentleman said that Mr..
Mclean had thus far been very sue
cessful in securing men who were ia
vorable to him, All of the meafwho
are securing the Democratic nemi-
nations for the Legislature through
outthe State are Mclean men. He
further said that Mclean was SAYING
to the public that he was not a candi-
date and that he was for Allen G.
Thurman. He declared that Mr.. Nc
Lean could not make an open fight
for the Senate and if it should be-
come generally known that he was a
bona-fide candidate for the Senate
the Democrats could not begin to
carry the Legislature.

curious Facts OF The mines.
Hartford Courapt.l

I1dIklOIQ SOuIdub.
There are some very curious facts
connected with 'hard times" which
it is extremely difficult to explain.
For instance, while the hard times
mean that work is scarce and wages
low and money scarce, nevertheless
the attendance of the general public
at such gatherings as base ball
matches, &C., is greater than it ever
was before. One can understand how
in times of idleness there should be
more likelihood for interest develop
ing in these sports, but that does not
account for the gate money. 1t isnot
easy to explain how, when people are
earning far less than usual, they
should be able to pay far more than
usual in mere sightseeing, nor how,
in such times a sport, which is sus-
tanned by public contribution, should
reach its most iourishing condition.
Another curious fact is that the
savings bank deposits do not decrease
but go on accumulating. In part this
is due to the fact that people who have
property try to 8 the banks as in
vestment for the capital, but this is
not a full explanation. The volume
of very small accounts grows, and
these are the savings of poor people,
who are just entering the list of prop.
erty-owners. If some draw out, more
come in, and the general conclusion
from the figures is not ofincreasine
poverty, but the reverse.
Still again, while dullness in bust.
ness is felt everywhere, the larger
railroads, which carry so large q part
of the merchandise of the country, dc
not report any serious falling off in
tonnage, but only in amount charged
for the transportation. Judged by
that standard, the volume o fbusiness
done is maintained, but not at any
profit.
None of these suggestions is with.
out interest, but that which is the
most popular in its nature is the first

There are horse races, foot races, boat

Ohio Republican View of Grow
From Interview with NJ. Halstead.

From Interview with M. HalStead.
"There is a certain phrase of popu-
lar approval of Cleveland Admins
tration in Ohio that it would be i'm
proper not to mention in an converse
ton of this sort. He seems to acquir-
ed a relentless prejudice against one
of the Democratic factions in Ohio
the known there as the "kids."
One would suppose from the phrase
"Kids" that they were veryyoung peo-
pie. But they are particularly dis
tinguished by electing Mr.. Payne, a
gentleman seventy-fve years old, to
the Senate, and lately they have been
wanting to run Mr.. Thurman, who is
nearly a old, for Governor. 1t may be
said of the "Kids" that though some
of them are young in years they are
ancient in iniquity. The "Kid" faction
in Cincinnati is a very disreptuabie
lot, and Mr.. Cleveland's prejudice,
which is of a personal nature, against
them has sirguarly influenced him to
make some very fair appointments in
that part of the country.

Suggested by the Strikes.
N. Y. Times.


Many of the workingmen of this
country are engaged in casting great
discredit on their own cause by re,
sorting to violence for the enforce
ment of their demands. At East Sag
inaw, Mich, it has been found neces-
sary to employ a large force of hired
detectives to call on the State for aid
in preserving order. The strikers
have gone SO far as to threaten to
seize the water works and cut off the
water supply from the city. The fact
that there are men willing to take the
places of the strikers at the wages of
fered is an evidence that their de-
mand is one that cannot be enforced
by Legitimate means All men have
an equal right to work, and trying to
prevent competition by force savors
OF the spirit of monopoly. This kind
of trouble is largely caused by igno
rant and brutal men, who have no in
telligent idea of their own rights and
no regard for those Of others.
