ing, first prices showing declines of from y to ..
per cent from last evenings final prices. Further
losses of slight fractions were generally sustained
in the early trading, but they were reganed in
most cases aud in some stocks small advances
were established, better tone prevailing late in
the hour. The fluctuations, however, were for
insignificant fractions only, and the dealings re-
manned void of special feature throughout. The
market became intensely dull before o'clock
aud at that time it was quiet and again weak at
the lowest prices reached. Money .

THE ONLY surprising thing about the riot
of the striking miners at Shenandoah, Penn
sylvania, yesterday, is that it did not occur
before. AS usual the chief rioters were for
egaers, who seem to labor under the de
lusion that the liberty of this country, to
which they are unaccustomed in their own,
means license and an utter disregard of law
and order. As long as the strikers observed
the law they had the sympathy OF many
people, though few could see the wisdom OF
the strike, but as the only safety OF republ
can institutions lies in strict observance OF
the law, they have forfeited that sympathy
among all real lovers of such institutions.
