The LOCKOUT AT JAcKsoNvnLE.-There is
great indignation at Jacksonville, Fla, over
the refusal of the board of health to issue a
proclamation allowing the return Of refugees
to that city. Hazen, a returned New York
refugee, who has been residing at Burnside
beach Of late, came to town Wednesday. was
arrested and fined 800. He refused to pay
the fine and now lies in the city Jail. The
Times Union in a long leader condemned the
action of the authorities and advocated imme-
date permission for the entry of refugees

THE LIMIT OF REACTION REACHED.
Thursday, Nav 3-p m.

The offers OF United States bonds to the Treas
ury to-day amounted to So, 70I,300. The Secre-
tary accepted 81, 277,25O-4s up TO l26 l-2 and
l-2s up to 107 3-4-making the total amount OF
purchases since April 23 50, 1896
The stock speculation to-day furnished strong
evidence that the reaction had gone about its
length First prices generally showed some i'm
provement on yesterdays closing figures, and the
loan market developed large addition to the
outstanding short interest. The bears strenu-
ously worked however, for lower valuations;
several times their attacks temporarily caused a
lower range Of figures, but, with the exception OF
few stocks the recoveries were quick ana de-
cisive There no longer is room to doubt that
money will prove an important factor IN the
future of values Yesterday the banks gained
from the Sub-Treasury s2,500,000, and to-day
about $4,000, 600. The offerings Of bonds to the
Treasury continued to be large, Notwithstanding
the extreme ease in money. This fact is possible
of only one interpretation-the holders Of Govern
nlents are seeking more paying investments. Yes
terday we showed by tho Treasury's monthly
statement that there WI s in the Treasury vaults
April 80 last only sl4,0O0,O00 more net legal
money than there was April 30, 1887; that In the
year 49, 600 600 Of silver dollars had been coined,
and that therefore the legal money In general clr
culation had been increased 81 100000 by the
Treasury's operations in the twelve months add
to that the net imports OF S3TOO00OO gold IN
the same time, gives expansion OF s36OOo,O0O
ior the year. In view of such conditions and tho
fact that there is in the Treasury over ,OOO-
600 of legal money, which can be had at 2a2 l-2
per cent per annum till the maturity OF the As
and I-2s, it Is not strange that money Is easy
and promises to remain so during the remainder
of the year The bears -old-timers from year
ago-to-day fought the evident tendency OF the
market, however, to the best OF their ability.
They made Erie stock special point and sold II
down l per cent lower than yesterdays price,
and it closed with final recovery Of only l-2 per
cent: but they were more chary OF handling the
second 6s and offered them less freely than yes
terday. ST. Paul also was sold down So per cent
lower than yesterday, but it closed only IA lower
than last night. The Northern Pacifcs and the
Orcgons were exceptionally strong. ms they are
entitled to be on their large earnings. The gain
to Northern Pacific in the fourth week OF April
was over so per cent. In reading the gross earn
ings for the fourth week Of April, printed below,
IL should be, remembered that the week Of this
year included one day less than the week OF ss7.
The market closed with irregular changes from
last evenng-generally small-but il closed strong.
