NEW YORK, May 25.-At the stock ex-
change the market opened 1S@1Sc lower
for the principal properties on the list. A
great surprise awaited the traders. During
the latter part of the week a desperate
effort was made by the Gould party to ad-
vance the market. Bull reports of the set
Element of the trunk line difficulties were
given out, and every other device known
to Wall street was resorted to for the pilr-
pose of inducing outsiders to buy Union
Pacific, Lackawanna, Western Union,
Pacific Mail, and-other properties in which
Gould was specially interested. But it was
no go. The lambs would not come in, and
the clique were at their wits end
to know what to do next. Yesterday
Deacon White met Jay Gould at Cyrus W.
Fields house. and the trio held an eight
hours conference on the situation. This
morning there was mysterious selling
movement visible from the tapping of the
bell. Lackawanna opened at 1043s, and in
half an hour had dropped to 1929. Union
Pacific opened at 54I, and in the same
time
SOLD OFF
to 53I. Erie DDS opened at so and went
off with run to 1871. Pacific Mail opened
at 56a6 and fell to 54%. While this was
going ON Western Union was held steady
and firm. The Changers seemed to be
pegged, and even the VanderbiltS failed to
show their ordinary weakness. What it all
meant no one but the manipulators knew.
Some feared trap, and others thought that
White was selling out. After the first
sharp decline the, market rallied little,
bOlted, and then started downward second
time, in which condition the noon hour
found it. On the second time down the
Changers began to weaken. The earnings of
ST. Paul for the third week in May de-
creased S25. 200, and those of Northwestern
for the same time fell off So, 600. On this
showing st. Paul dropped to SO and North
western to "a during the forenoon. Lacka
wanna, too, went down to 1925, while
Western Union was put up to 60. 1t looks
as though White and Gould
HAD QUARRELED
and that the willy deacon, ever sly and
vicious, was determined to look out for
himself and let Gould go on alone. 1t is
thought that the Union Pacific deal is now
over and that stock will be left to itself.
The Manhattan Elevated company have
applied to the stock exchange to list 81, 000,
600 of 10 per cent. Metropolitan mortgage
bonds, payable in 1899. Louisville & Nash
vile have also applied for the listing of
SO, 600, 900 of 10 per cent. adjustment bonds.
Both of these are the balance of the
same previous issue. Mexican Central
earnings for the third week in May were
$50, 600 against 1888, 900 the previous week.
A very Important meeting of trunk line
presidents and agents is called for to-mor-
row, at Commissioner Fink's office. Savin
was unloading st. Paul Saturday, through
brokers. The Pennsylvania road feels dis
posed to keep up the old fight and has re-
duced west-bound fares about SIS on first
class tickets. At the close the market was
steady at the decline.

Produce Exchange.

The marketwa an inactive one and weaker,
while business was very light. Corn was firm
at former figures, and car was sold at 471ac,
which was nc above the quotation. Barley
was dull, without demand and lower. Baled
hay was lower, with l car sold at $3.50, but
timothy was stronger and shade higher.
Butter is without change and receipts are
large, rather too large to warrant the cOntin-
uance of present figures. The demand is
still confined to the best qualities, and there
appears to be at present an abundance. The
poorer grades still continues in slight request.
The demand for eggs. remains good, and the
