From Wall Street To-day,

New YORK, July %, Wall street, IL a.m.-The
stock market was somewhat more active this
morning, though the animation was confined to
spots, and Atchison, St. Paul, Missouri. Pacific
and c., c., c. and St. Louis attracted most at
tention. The tone of the dealings was decidedly
strong and material advances we're scored over
last evening" figures, first prices showing gains
of from 4 to q per cent. generally with North
ern Pacific, Union Pacific. and Lake Shore in
the lead. Further fractional advances were
scored all over the list and c., c.. G. and St.
Louis rose to 60, net gain of ~ per cent.
Atchison was the only weak spot in the list and it
declined "a after opening at 3G14 but later re-
covered all the loss and fuctuated within mar
row limits in that neghborhood. There was a
partial reaction late i'll the hour and the market
became more quiet, and at IL O'Clock it was
dull and steady at a shade off from the best
prices.

DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.

DISTRICT EMPLOYEES TO BE PAID IN CASH.
The Commissioners, acting upon the recon-

the workings of his office, issued the following
order to-day:
Whereas the present system of paying labor
ers and other per diem employees by separate
warrants involves unnecessary clerical labor in
the preparation of warrants, and hardships by
loss of time and otherwise to those to whom
money is due, it is ordered.
That such laborers and employees shall here
after be paid in cash by the auditor of the Dis
trict, who, when payroll is presented to him
duly approved and certified and signed by the
individual claimants, shall receive a warrant
drawn in his favor and pay each claimant in
cash the amount due him on said roll and file
the said roll as his voucher for the disburse-
ment.
PERMISSION TO MOVE THE CHURCH.
A permit was issued to-day to Mr. N.Wheeler
