FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.

The feature IN Wall street on Saturday
was the announcement that Presideat
dowen OF the Reading Railroad has pur-
chased the big block OF Reading stock
which the late William II. Vanderbilt be-
queathed TO his two eldest sons. The
amount OF the stock transferred and the
terms OF The purchase were not made pub
lie. 1t Is thought that the sale will place
the Nandorbilts In q position of neutrality.
while placing Mr. Gowen In complete con
troll Of the Reading so far as the voting
power of the stock is concerned. The sale
is considered as a powerful blow at the
syndicate. II is considered as showing
that Mr.. Gowen is backed by money, for he
could not have bought the stock himself.
Coupled with this news comes the period
ical report that the Baltimore e Ohio is
about to conclude an arrangement by which
it shall use the Pennsylvania tracks into
New York for five years. This, If true,
does not necessarily indicate the abandon
ment Of thestaten Island route, but on the
contrary would give the Baltimore & Ohio
an entrance TO New York while Its own line
into Staten Island is building. Mr.. Erastus
Wiman said to-day that he knew nothing
about the alleged agreement, and did not
believe the report. lie said that the Balti.
more & Ohio must fulfill its obligations
assumed in the contract with the Staten
Island Rapid Transit Company.

The Eariy-Ciosing Movement.

Tie early.closing, movement, started by
the clerks, is rapidly assuming the proper
tions of n boom In their favor, Public
opinion seems to be with them, and the
majority of the merchants are in favor of
the move, but some do not like to close
their stores when their rivals are keeping
open. If general understanding between
hour for closing fixed upon, 1t is safe to say
nine-tenths OF the principal merchants viii
accede. 1t is proposed that Z o'clock be
decided as the hour for closing. A meeting
is suggested at Cosmopolitan Hall next
Wednesday evening at $3.50, between en-
ployers and clerks, to settle the question.
