$4.s4I5 for sixty-day bills, and s4.9sA for de-
mand. The stock market to-day was COM
paratively dull, with general dropping
tendency during the forenoon, but hrmer
feeling. later on, while the fluctuations in
most of the list were on an equally limited
scale, and the final changes except i'll rare
instances were entirely insignificant The
news Of the morning, especially that from
the West was of an unfavorable
character, and there was very
which, considering the recent ami
nation in the market had tendency to in
duce realization, and the bears worked the
fear of bad bank statement tomorrow and
the expectation Of the resumption OF specie
exports for all they were worth. There was
marked lack of support to the list and
while London was buyer again the foreign
operations were not of sufficient magnitude
to have any material effect upon the course
of prices. The London buying was most
marked in Union Pacific, and served to keep
that stock firm when the remainder OF the
list was dropping. First prices this morning
were steady as compared with last evening"
figures but the market was dull and soon
developed dropping tendency. The
losses sustained, however were insig-
nificant except in Missouri Pacific,
which dropped 1ss per cent during the fore
noon, while the losses in most of the others
were recovered before noon. Some Of the
specialties exhibited marked strength, among
which Toledo & Ohio Central was most con-
SpicuouS, the common scoring net advance
OF per cent from its last recorded sale, and
the preferred 4. The bears however, in
searching for vulnerable spots, lit upon
Northern Pacific common, and 1t was
knocked down 10 32l2, against 34ss last even
ing. The movement was believed to be an
effort to cover stock sold some time ago, but
the stock did not recover. The general mar
ket sympathized in a liStless way, and the
dealings became almost stagnant until
the last hour, when brisk buying of Louis
vile d Nashville sent that stock up nearly
ia per cent and turned the course of prices
in the general list once more in the upward
direction. The dealings were also enlivened
by a renewal of speculation in Phoenix min
ing stock, and on large transactions it was
jumped up from SO to 40. The trusts were
dull and without feature throughout the day.
The market finally closed dull, but firm, gen.
orally at insignificant changes from last even
ing's figures, though Northern Pacific is down
1Ss and Jersey Central l, while Louisville d
Nashville is up per cent Railroad bonds
