THE MARKETS.
Excitement and Irregularities In the
Stock Market.


NEW YORK, Oct 1S.-To-day opened
with an excited and irregular market, In
which the principal features were the weak
ness in Manhattan and Jersey Central,
which, to a certain extent, affected the
other anthracite companies and the extraor-
binary strength shown by Hooking Valley
and some others OF the specialtles. The
elimination Of the short interest In Man
haitian caused IL to be offered down this
morning, which met several stop orders,
and drop Of nine points in the first fifteen
minutes was the result. This brought In
liberal buying, which quickly rallied at o
per cent, though II shows net loss OF 7per
cent. at the close this evening.
The better understanding OF Jersey Cen
trail affairs disposed the street TO take a
gloomy view Of Its future, and IL was sold
freely throughout the day, being actually
the weakest stock on the list. The other
anthracite companies, Notwithstanding the
efforts Of the bull pool in those stocks,
sympathlzed with Jersey Central. The
Nanderbllts and grangers were quiet
throughout the day. There was some Lon
don buying Of Nickel Plate, but after open.
ing higher the stock sold off steadily
throughout the day. The strength In the
market was shown entirely by the speci H.
ties, and Hooking Valley, Susquehanna and

AN AGREEMENT REACHED
Between the Alexandria Canal Com
pany and the Lessees.

The Alexandria canal directors have sub
mitted the following proposal to the lessees,
which has been accepted 1.-THE Alexandria
Canal Company to join with the lessees in
a deed to the government for the piers and
aqueduct to be used as free bridge. The
essees to pay the debts Of the canal com.
pauy and to surrender their lease, aud all
the money (Sl25,OO0) paid by the United
States for the aqueduct to go to the
lessees.n
BY this the lessees receive some $4,000
clear, and the canal company gets back the
property leased, minus the aqueduct, but
free Of debt. In the auditors report Of city
assets for 1882, under the head OF financial
securities, is placed debt "from the Alex
andria Canal Company, $l52,37I77." This,
Of course, is not included in the debts to be
paid, as It would more than swallow up
the whole amount Alexandria expended on
the canal, sum equal to nearly one-fourth
of the value Of all the real property in
TOWN.

the equity court, has petItloned to have the

diction TO decree a sale OF the property re.
quires that IN sIch sales, unless the court

The decree, advertisement, and announce
ment under which this sale took place pre-
scribed the terms to be one-third cash, one
third in six months, oue-third In twelve
months, or all cash at the option OF the
purchaser. By reason OF the departure
from the terms Of the statute II is claimed
that the decree was void and the sale there
