surprise this morning in the announce
meut that Messrs. Could and Powdely
had agreed 20 submit the differences
between the Missouri Pacific and Its
employees to arbitration aud that Pow
DERBY had issued an order for the

point. During the afternoon, while
speculation was firm for the most part,
the market showed n hating disposition
on advices from st, Louis that the men

on pending the result OF the Northwest
ern railway conference at st. Paul and the
meeting Of tine coal managers here Taken
altogether, speculation displayed flrmer
uudurtOne than for a week past, and the
bull rankS have undoubtedly received
some important accessions. Whether
the Improvement will be lasting or not
depends largely upon events Ia the rail-
road world likely to occur Ia the near
future. The rally In the market late in
the afternoon was due mostly TO Chi.
cage dispatch, stating that Chairman
Irons had JUST ordered all the knights OF
Labor 30 return TO work.

There was rush Of the shorts TO cover
and another rush by the longs, and Tor a

bd whispered, however, that there was u
hitch Ia the negotiations, aud Mr.. Gould,
IL WAS alleged, was authority for the
statement that he had made no overtures
whatever 20 POwderly, and later 1t was
stated that the Knights had refused to re-
sumo work until after their differences
had been arbtrated. The Change ran
on this latter statement throughout the
remainder Of the day, and at O'Clock
Wall street was uncernin as TO whether
WORK had been resumed, or whether
nothing would he done until further
negotiations were settled. The
