the morning, the market opening with q
rather heavy undertone, with declines ex-
tending 10 4 per cent. St. Paul, Reading
and Lake Shore were the weak features at
the start, and before midday recorded de-
clnes of q to 1sS per cent The feature of
the market was a slump Of 21k points in Rock
Island from the closing sales yesterday and
points from the highest point touched on
yesterdays bulge. The drop was due to q
reported row in the directory over the rate of
dividend TO be declared The rumor was that
President Cable and II. II. Porter wanted
the rate reduced TO per cent, but that the
Bishop party wanted or 6. The break in
this stock caused a general giving way Of the
entire list, and at o'clock the market was
dull and weak, with more sellers than buyers.
There was little change in the last hour, ex-
cept in Oregon Trans s-Continental, which ad-
vanced A per cent and closed at the outside
figures, showing a net gain over yesterday.
Cotton oils were also strong and closed 17
per cent higher. The rest of the list was
easy, with declines ranging from 1s to 2A
per cent. Rock Island had the lead. Lake
Shore was IL, and Northwestern and Bur
lington point each, New England a, Mis-
souri, Pacific 4, St. Paul 9s, Reading Is,
Western Union r. Total sales included
10000 st. Paul, "a, 100 Reading, $500 Rock

Shooting in Johnson City.

Last night, about 10 o'clock, the
office OF G. X Lide & Co. was the
scene OF most shocking affair. Just
before retiring, Mr., Wade Whiteside
(the book-keeper) loaded double
barrelled shot gun, and by some acct
dental means discharged the contents
Of one barrel into Bill File, who was
at that time resting upon the office
window-sill. The shock was, of course
great, and when Mr.. Whiteside recov'
cred composure sufficient to look after
results, he found VIM. File compare
lively uninjured, but the invoices SC
mutilated as to necessitate reques
for duplicates before the arrival o
goods now in transit.
