GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The stock market
opened very dull and rather heavy, but
ne market recovered Snd small advances
ere made in the esrly dealings, though
exceptions were Wheeling and Lake Erie.
They were confined to small fractions.
The firm tone, however, disappeared after
II o'clock and prices ssgged OF steadily
uatil after noon, when the list
relapsed into dullness, so remsin-
ing until the last hour. The
close was very dull and about steady at
the opening figures. The result OF the
DAYS business is that the active list is
irregularIy changed, though the extreme
difference from last evenings prices
is but per cent.
The railroad bond market was fairly
sctive, the total transactions amounting
TO SI,5SI 900, to which Jersey
Central 5's contributed S27O,000
while the rest of the business was very
evenly divided. The market was quite
irregular, but important changes in quo
tations are few in number.
Government bonds were dull and
steady.
WILL DEAL IN PETROLEUM.
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-TheY are going to
deal in petroleum on the New York
Stock Exchange. That was virtually
settled yesterday. A conference lasting
three hours was held down town, there
being present special committee OF the
Stock Exchange, the ex-president ofStse
United Pipe Lines Association and the
presidents of the three Pennsylvania ols
exchanges, Foster Of the Oil City board
Stevens Of the Pittsburg boarG, and
Wheeler OF the Bradford board. As are
suit of this meeting the Stock Exchange
Line certificates shall be added to
the unlisted securities now traded in On
the hOlr of the Exchange. Brokers
are practically unanimous in desiring the
listing of petroleum certificates as is at
tested by the fact that of the HOO mem
beTs Of the Exchange, many of whom live
in distant cities, about 500 have slreadY
signed memorial to the governors in fa-
vcr of the innovation.
Tie subject Was discussed in q very
different vein by cynical -ex-member of
the Sock Exchange. If they list oil he
is AFRAID it viii be the downfall Of the
Exchange, "It has ruined everybody
tnst.ever gsmbled in it, and with 8 lay
out so close at hand the boys will be
tempted whenever stocks sre dull to take
) Eyer in petroleum. It's dead open and
shut skin game. They will all go broke"

While there have been delays on railways,
northwest, west and east, the late block
sde at the northwest has been partially

received for genera! merchandise, not
ably at Chicago, where prices have,
with some exceptions (grain) +,
tended upward and where business
has improved. AT Memphis, st. Louis
and Kansas City there is some gain in or
ders and in the volume of goods shipped,
without special activity. Milder weather
at St. Louis and Denver has helped bust
ness. In South Texas and Louisiana wet
weather has rendered country roads near

merchandise, as well IS shipment Of farm
produce has been checked in consequence.
At Boston, New York and Philadelphia
commercial reports have not varied much

ity being noted. At Pittsburg, Omaha,

ditions prevail. Dry goods, boots and
