Country Pr0duce-Jobbing Prices.
The egg market is slow, with lie as the out
side price. Choice apples are growing scarce
and moving upward. Poultry is In good sup
ply. There is light demand for dressed poul:
try, the season being nearly over. The uniform
testimony of produce men is that trade is un-
usually quiet We are now having the calm
that usually follows the activity of Easter
week. Tropical fruits continue to move out
freely. Old potatoes are slow as ever. Receipts
of new stuff are steadily on the gain; the old is
less and less in demand. While choice apples
grow scarce and higher, the best potatoes give
no signs of coming to an end.

DULL BUT FIRM.
Higher London Prices Keep the Stock
Market From Failing Into Desuetude-
A Strong Close at the Best
Figures 0f the nav


NEW YORK, April A-The stock market
continues to show decreasing volume of busi-
ness, and this was the dullest day in shares that
we have had for some time. There was. how
ever marked change in the temper Of the
dealings from those of yesterday and the weak
ness all disappeared, and, although movements
in the list were confined almost exclusively to
the specialties, which are moved by influences
peculiar to themselves, and which have no ef-
feet or bearing upon the rest of the list, there
was general upward tendency, and with a few
unimportant exceptions the entire list is frac-
tionally higher this evening
London prices came higher this morning, and
were of material influence in making the tone
of the local market, which opened generally
slight fractions better than last evenings
figures. The tone of the subsequent dealings
was firm, and small fractional advances were
made among the few active shares notwith-
standing the opposition offered to an advance
by the bear contingent. This pressure was
most conspicuous in Reading, and that stock
was the only one showing any real activity
during the day. and although it was forced
down to the lowest price for week past, it
could not be held there. and later it recovered
and actually closed a fraction better than last
night.
The only marked movements were among the
specialties, and Wabash led off with considera-
ble animation and strong tone. but this was
followed by sudden drop in Cleveland Colum-
bus, Cincinnati and Indianapolis of IL per
cent, to 81, which was sympathized with by Big
Four and Colorado Coal, although the last
named afterward recovered. After noon, when
the bear pressure was removed, there was
further decrease in the amount of business
done, but the upward tendency became more
marked, and Memphis and Charleston became
the special feature of the dealings and it moved
up sharply its gain being 5per cent, to 70. while
Manitoba, Philadelphia Gas and some others
followed with smaller amounts.
In the general list the fluctuations continued
within the narrowest limits and seemed to
possess no significance whatever In the un-
listed department the trusts were less active
and made no movement of importance. and
Brunswick was dull and steady at 2lL The
close was strong at the best prices of the day,
Memphis and Charleston is up s. Manitoba AZ

Hooking Valley l per cent, and others frac-
tional amounts.
Railroad bonds were again active and in GOOD
demand, although the total of the business
done fell little short of that yesterday being

Columbus, Cincinnati and INDIANAPOLIS con-
soils, Iron Mountain frsts to l07, and Manitoba

RELIGION AND A CHILD.

Differences ON the Former Result In a Divi.
sion and Litigation Regarding the Latter
Other COurtIngs.
a hearing was had in the Orphans Court
yesterday on the petition for the appoint
ment of guardian for Allie Hearn, 12-
year-old girl. The child has been living
with Patrick O'Herron, on Seventeenth street.
Her sister tried to obtain possession of her,
but O'Herron refused to give her up. Habeas
corpus proceedings were instituted, but Judge
Ewing returned the child to the custody of
O'Herron.
The sister then filed a petition in the Or
phans' Court for the appointment of guar
dian The result was the appointment of j. r.
Nobbs, of the Twelfth ward, as guardian. He
was instructed by the Court to place the child
where she would be best cared for, using his
own discretion.
The quarrel over the child was the outcome
of differences about religion.

STRONG AND ACTIVE.
The Oil Market Demonstrates That 1t Can't
be Held Dowa.

When the oil market opened yesterday there
was considerable doubt and anxiety on both
sides of the fence as to which way the cat would
jump. and consequently there was very little
noise or excitement; but, as anticipated, a hrm-
er tone soon set in and prices advanced hand
somely, with good trading all along the line
several big blocks being dumped here and
others in New York and OH City.
The result of the days operations was to
leave prices " cents higher than the opening,
with strong and confident feeling in some
quarters of a further appreciation to-day 1t
was generally thought the Rubicon of the
spring slump had been crossed, and that, while
anything like boom was improbable with the
Lima stuff hanging over the market, the pre-
diction of 20 cent oil had been shown to have
nothing to rest on. Even the shorts admitted
that they had no expectations of loading up
under so. Their views reflect the opinions OF
some of the most prominent of the local
dealers.
The market opened at s11SS, and held there for
q short time, when it broke to 81. This was
followed by a reaction which boosted the price
to S215, from which it soon broke to SlT, ad-
vanclng near the close to SS1s, the highest point
reached The boys then lost their grip and let
the market go down to 8234, at which it closed.

A GOOSE EGG.
No Sales Mt the Morning Stock Gala Very
Dull Day.

Captain Barbour had small audiences at
both of the stock calls yesterday. In the FORE
noon he pleaded with the brokers, almost with
tears in his ewes. to do something to save his
reputation and his feelings, but the only re-
ward for his eloquence was a goose egg, indi-
eating that he had not effected single sale.
He did little better in the afternoon, as under
his persuasive oratory two stocks were traded
in to the extent of 2l0 shares. The reasons for
the apathy were that there were no pressing
orders either way, and that buyers and sellers
were SO far apart as to form a sort of bloody
chasm, across which they could do nothing but
scowl and glare at each other. There were no
material changes in figures. Bids, offers and
sales follow:
