New York.

Special to the Globe.
NEW YORK, April 19.-The reports of
further labor troublesl the West made a
narrow and unsettled market to-day. The
announcement of the settlement of the Balti-
more g. Ohio strike was more than counter
balanced by the serious reports in regard to
the switchmen of the Lake Shore road. AT
an early hour an attempt was made TO re-
sumo traffic with new men hired TO take the
place of the strikers. Police protection was
secured, but it proved inadequate. The
strikers were on hand in numbers and pulled
the pins out of the couplings of the
cars. No personal violence was used;
but the company found itself unable TO handle
business and refused to receive freight for
shipment 1t was further rumored that the
New York Central employees were going to
join issues with the Lake Shore men, and go
out on strike. In spite of the seriousness of
the situation the Vanderbilts were held strong,
no decline of consequence being permitted.
The Changers, and in fact the general list,
ruled dull aud inactive; Manhattan gained
two points, and was the strongest thing on the
list. The earnings of the Northwestern road
increased $4,000 for the second week
of April, and Chicago a. Eastern Illinois
increased S4,03l for the same period.
The announcement that the managers OF the
Granger roads had not seen fit TO hold a meet
ing to take action regarding the troubles i'm
the Northwest, was taken to indicate that a
continuance of the war was likely, and that
an extension of the trouble might be expected.
Influenced by this view of the situation, the
Changers were literally sold ank decline of
about one-hah point resulted. The pros
pective cable rate war was the source of the
weakness in Western Union, which sold off
about point. The reports OF labor troubles
received all day, and the possibilities Of their
extending to other roads, caused an unset
tied feeling.
WALL STREET GOSSIP.
Northwestern earnings for the second week
in April decreased $1,000. Earnings of Ore
gon Navigation for the second week of April
increased ST., 300.
]. S. Bache-We are afraid TO advise on this
market. Barring labor troubles, the outlook
is bulliSh. Ii your customers Think that the
latter will not have much effect let them buy
stocks. Think Oregon TranscontinentaI and
Omaha a purchase.
Henry Clewes-Plock has engaged $3.50, 600
gold for shipment tomorrow. This is the
cause of the break in the market
Oppenheimer-We think Woerishofer Is
selling Pacific Mail and Western Union, as the
dividend will be passed on the former and the
latter on the cable fight.

British Grain Trade.

LONDON, April 19.-The Mark Lane
Express in its review of the British grain
trade during the past week says:
The wheat trade has been exceedingly dull.
The sales of English wheat were 49, 514 quar-
tiers at sos l0d against A, 1877 quarters at 54s
Id during the corresponding week last year.
Foreign wheats are slow of sale and rather
weaker. Flour is Cd lower. Corn is steady.
Three cargoes of wheat arrived, one cargo
was sold and two remained. Trade forward
is languid. To-day the wheat market was not
improved, only a retail business was done.
Flour was quiet but steady. Barleys were
neglected. Oats were Sd lower.
