CHICAGO, April 23.-Business was rather
quiet at the banks to-day, although the late
good weather has rather quickened the cur
rent of trade among jobbers and wholesale
houses. Those who have delayed making
summer purchases hitherto can do so no
longer and hence there is an increased de
mand to make up for past remissness. The
speculative markets were uncertain and
unsteady, from the conflicting foreign rrl-
mors and occurrences. Money rates re-
main steady at previous quotations. New
York exchange was quoted at CSC premium
with only fair outside demand. Currency
shipments and receipts were both light.
Sterling exchange higher, S4.S7@4. SO. Min

New YORK, April 9S.-The failure of
the specializing public to come forward and
nlbhle continues to be the great drawback
of the market, and the restoration of an era
of confidence is the one thing desired. The
exact date has not been agreed upon. and
the halcyon time Is in somewhat indefi-
mite future. The country is afraid of the
street, and likely to remain so.
As soon rs the pending rate difficulties
are settled il is understood that bull move

FULroN's Sun is the latest news
paper venture in Little Rock. 1t is
a weekly Independent Republican
vehicle, by which its editor,-a col
ored man-eXpects to rise in popu-
lar favor. Since the election of
Cleveland the woods are full of 'em,
and before his term of Office expires,
no doubt there will be as many col
ored voters in democratic ranks as
there will be left in the republican
party. Though just emerging from
behind a very dark cloud, we pre-
diet for Fulton's Sun success and a
bright future.
