CLOSING PRICES OF PHILADELPHIA STOCKS
WHAT WAS DONE IN STOCKS.
Thursday, Jan. 1o-p.

thursday, Jan up III.
What was done-the progress made toward
closing Of business on business methods, ana a
Undertaking. of the plain fact that railway man
ayers are trustees for their owners, appointed or
elected solely,to do business at profit and not
loss-at to-day's conference Of railway presidents
and the representatives Of their stocSholders-the
managers masters for the first time in the history
OF the country-is fully reported in our news col
umns The arrangement OF the details OF any
plan Is n task not 20 be accomplished in few
hours, as it would be II left TO the railway experts
Of Broad-st in the employ OF the parties largely
interested in becoming stockholders al lower
prices All that is yet proper 10 say OF yesterdays
and todays conference is that II is developed that
the stockholders, through their representatives,
are going 10 follow the arrangement Of details and
agreements to be made beyond the point that was
anticipated.
There seems now TO be not only demand that
the railways shall be managed on business princi-
pies, but a proposition to revise any proposed
methods to that end II is this deliberate care and
supervision OH the part Of stockholders which VIII
give 20 the managers agreement greater I'M
portance than ever before has attached to such ar
rangements. In what viii be done now the man
ayers will be directly responsible TO their stock
holders and not alone TO each othcr
To-day's stock market was dull without special
who are disposed TO be bulls were inclined
20 await developments from the conference OF
railway managers and the bankers The
Tuxedo bears did some fine work in the
way Of marking prices of by matched orders, but
yet there was an undertone of strength that
prevented any material decline in prices. The
market halts simply because neither bulls
nor bears are able to make large purchases
without advancing prices sharply. The would-be
"bulls spectators cannot accumulate stocks
from which TO start an upward movement and the
bears cannot cover their contracts. move
ment on the part OF either advances prices so
rapidly that both withdraw. The bears sooner
or later must buy, and 10 do that they must
hope for a broader market than now exists.
Generally there was little change in prices to-
day; measured by figures recorded, the market
was alternately weak and strong, and by that
rule it closed strong.
THE DAY IN THE BOND MARKET.
Government bonds were dull with the nominal
quotations as follows:
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1889-01-11
The Treasury purchased $4,000 Ala per

The Treasury purchased $4,000 Ala per
cents at los l-2.
State issues were neglected. and the business
included only Alabamas Class q, $1,000 at
100 1-2. OF city bank Stocks Commerce sold

chanics' t2s) at 1sI, New-Y York National Exchange
800 at 30, and Western National IL 3Ol ut 05a96.
The general bond market ruled firm. But it
was part OF the scheme for the depression OF
share values TO continue the attack on the issues
Of the Gulf Colorado and Santa re Railroad.
The bonds have not been Iegarded AS speculative
securities. and entirely left without speculative
support To-day the movement was directed
against tie first Is The last sale yesterday was
at ITO. To-day they were opened at los. and
immediately sold down to los l-2 on apparent
sales Of $4,000; they closed at 90 l-2. and the
second IS closed Mt II "a. against II "a yester-
day The management OF the company, which Is
the Atchison. Topeka and Santa Fe, owes to the
holders of its securities q statement which will pro-
tect the small holders OF its securities. Not many
months ago the report was current that the Erie
Company contemplated an additional Issue OF
81 0, 900, 900 bonds, and the speculative organs
were full OF statements concerning the floating
debt. IL was not without some trouble that the
Erie management was convinced that It's duty to
the holder OF one OF Its second consolidated bonds
demanded specific statement from IL as to the
truth or fasity OF the current rumors that 1t was
trustee for the widow with one bond. and not
for it's directors with millions OF bonds, who know
the condition of the property. The denial OF the
reports over Mr.. Kings signature was the result
of personal efforts. But never since that denial
have there been any repetitions of the rumors
the local bear organs closed upon the subject. and
the price Of Erie second 6s has risen from 92 to
100 7-S, which to-day was the closing figure.
Colorado Coal and Iron 6s for some unexplained
reason fell from 102 rs 20 I0l. Perhaps there
is no reason beyond the fact that :" Colorado IS
part OF the title: the business in them was not
large except at the lowest figures; they were sold
down on sales OF small lots Reference is made to
our full report OF bond sales

MR. WEBB'S POEMS.

vAoRoM VERSE " Charles Henry Webb John
Paul. 16mo pp. 1872 Boston: Tfcknor Co.
John Paul is an easy and versatile singer. He
has tried HE hand at many Styles and has done
fairly well in all The scattered verse gathered
in this little volume comprises unusually large
proportion Of pieces which possess genuine claim
to survival There are dialect poems, society
verses. patriotic lyrics, reflective domestic
humorous and other varieties of verse; and node
Of them are wanting in some fitting quality Of
merit The humorous and domestic verses pre-
dominate, and of these the majority are marked by
tender feeling underlying playful and delicate wit
Among the serious poems there are a few which
show depth and force of expression suggesting
higher power than Mr.. Webb, perhaps is himself
conscious Of 9 Alec Dunham's Boat has melan-
choly music that recurs again and again to ones
nemory:
ALEC DUNHAMs BOAT.
There she lies at her mooringA
The little two-master,
Answering not now
The call Of disaster.
Loose swings the rudders
Unshipped the tler:
Crossing the Bar so,
One sea would fill heri
Foresai and mainsal
In loose folds are lying;
Naked the mastheads-
No pennon flying;
Seaweed and wreck
Alike may drift past her;
There lies the pilot-boat--
Where is her master?
Lantern at Great Point
Brightly it burns;
Beacon on Brant Point
The signal returns.
Far out to sea
Sanloty flashes:
White on the shore
The crested wave dashes.
Strident Notheaster
And smoky Sou westep
Call for the pilot-boat,
Eager to test her.
And ship on the Bar,
Just, where, the waves cast heri
Moored hes the pilot-boat-
Where is her masterr
oh, barque driving in.
God send that you lee GET
Past Tuckernuck shoals,
The reefs of Muskeget
There go minute guns;
Now faster and faster
But no more to their aid
Flies the little two-master.
For the pilot night
Left his boat you see her,
Light moored that at signal
He ready might free her.
But not from her moorlngs
Came the pilot to cast her,
Though a signal he answered.
One set by the Master.
Gone, say you, and whitherf
Do you ask me which way
Went good pilot as ever
Brought ship into bay?
Who shall soy how he cast ons
III to starboard or larboard?
But of one thing I'm sure
The pilots safe-harboreds
Throughout the book there is conspicuous fine
perception of melody and rhyme, and spontaneity
which broadly separates the author from the too
fuIl ranks of the machine poets.
