CnIcAGo, Jan. g. Special Telegram to
the BEE. --CATTLE-An increase of 5000
cattle over a liberal run of last week seems
to be more than the trade can stand this
week at least. Although values were prob
ably no lower than yesterday, the general
market ruled slow and business from first to
last was unsatisfactory for statesmen. The
whole troubl, is that there are too many
cattle coming to market, as the chances are
that there will be nearly 5000 for the week
Texans are scarce, barely a sufficient number
arriving to make n market. Good cows and
hcifers are selling shade better than hereto
fore, but old cows and common canning

New YoRK, Jan. 5.-[Special Telegram
to the ZEE. l-SToCKs-The turn in stocks
was upward. The whole advance gained at
the fist part Of the day was not maintained,
prices recedihg subsequently lsGe3s per cent.
.:oill the advance on the general list was de-
cided, extending in most cases to ss09s per
cent, while in few stocks, such as Jersey
Central, Louisville Il Nashville, and North
ern Pacific preferred, it was 16@l Is per cent.
The opening prices were generally the lowest
of the day. The market opened steady, but
business was very light. London appeared
TO be doing nothing, and traders were selling
sparingly under the impression that the Chi
cago bear party would renew their attack on
Changers, influenced by the prospective cut
ting of rates. Later the market became very
strong and under tho lead of Delaware,
Lackawanna & Western rose ll4Glss per
cent over yesterdays range. The buying
was largely by professionals, who seemed to
have formed pool to drive out the short in
terest in the Coalers, the Changers, Western
Union and the Vanderbilts. The total sales
were l36, 900 shares.

FLUSH TIMES N"FRISCo."
When. Hack Drivers Made $50 n Day
and Theatre Boxes Were 200.

San Francisco Examiner: Colonel
Mike Brannigan, the celebrated
guide ard hackman of FL Paso,
Tex, is on visit to this city. Mr..
Brannigan said yesterday:
81 have come back to San Francisco
for the purpose of seeing some of my old
friends of the Argonaut days of 1S49,
that is, as many of them as are alive. |
can tell you some interesting things
about early times in this city. 1 owned
and drove the first hack that ever
rumbled over the streets of San Fran
cisco. In 1851 got $50 a night to drive
Catherine Hayes, the famous singer,
and her mother, between the Razette
house and Tom Maguire's the
atre, which was then situ-
ated on Washington street, be-
tween Montgomery and Kearny. |
also got the same sum from several
others at the time for the same trip.
Those were good old days, and | as well =,
/ suppose, as very many others, would
wish to see them back again. | saw
81 200 paid for a box in Maguire's thea
ter on the opening night of Catherine
Hayes season. A Limerick butcher at
Sa cramento paid 81 300 for a box when
she went to the capital city to sing.
Dollars in those days were more plenti-
lul Indn nlckclS are now. w ncn Ine
mail steamers would arrive | have seen
a gambler give man an ounce of dust
THAT is $l6l for his place in the long
line of anxious people waiting their
turn outside the old postoffice, which
was then at the corner of Brennan
place and Clay street. Then you would
have to pay $l2 dozen for articles to be
laundered, and men used to throw solid
underclOthing away and buy new ar
ticles rather than pay for washing.
| remember when Lotta Crabtree first
appeared in this city. She used to play
a banjo and dance jigs at Gilbert's Melo-
deon at the corner.of Kearny and Clay
streets, and got S6 "A week. / think that
was in 1854 or 1875. She went 10 Vir-
ginia City in 1850, and made a hit,
Twenty-dollar gold pieces We're show
cred on the stage for her benefit, My
charges then as hack driver We're $50
a day and all expenses paid. | would
like to see that state Of things again,
and we would have less complaints about
capitalists and the like. Everybody
was capitalist in the old days. and il
only few of the wealthiest exist now
don't know why they ought TO be
blamed. We all had a chance to become
millionaires, and if we did not, it can't
be helped, and there is no use repin-
