The Judge WAS lsboring under mis-

Senator Maxey said that If it was de-
manded that Judge Terrell should be an
elector, the Judge had no right to with
draw. He, IS a good Democrat, must
obey the behests Of the party.
This was followed by a storm of shouts
for Terrell and Bailey, and clamor
that they be elected by reclamation.

Nav YORK, Missy 23,-The stock market
was very dull to- day up to the last hour,
when the bears made a combined attack
upon the leading stocks and forced prices
off to the lowest OF the day. The feeling
this morning was feverisb, though Lon
don was the buyer of it's specislties, but
1t was reported that new bear pool hsf
been formed and traders were putting ont
stocks to q limited extent, which under
small demand was sufficient to give SPEC
ulation a heavy tone. The opening was
made at advances over last evenings
figures for most Of the list, ranging up to
/ per cent, but the reports of q Pacific
Mail steamer In dsrger had the effect of
knocking that stock OFF Ii per cent. The
market seemed to respond to the decline,
and while there were only two active
stocks, the losses in the FIRST hour
amounted to from to ] per cent Pacific
Mail recovering small portion OF Its loss.
The active stocks were Reading and st.
Paul, and though reports from which in
dlcate the successful placing of the new
loan VIII ch, it ia predicted by
the bulls, will be followed by
a big movement In the stock
in this market, 1t gave no sign OF suy
stimulation to day, though it was com
paratively well held. There was the
usual decrease in the amount of business
done after the first hour, but the tone of
the market underwent no change, being
dull but heavy throughout, and the only
movement OF Importance was a sharp de-
cline in Fort Worth and Denver, which
after noon lost 2 per cent. and the activity
aud advance IN Delaware and Hudson
which was mace in anticipation OF the
next dividend. Missouri Pacific was
quite Weak in the last hour, and shows
material decline this evening. The mar
ket became more active and weaker to-
ward the close, which was weak and
quiet st about the lowest prices Of the
day. Everything is lower tonight in the
sctive list. and Fort Worth and Denver is
down Il; st. Paul preferred, Ii; Missouri
