closed higher than last evening. There was very

TO reduce rates unless they were discontinued,
and a renewal OF the uneasy feeling In Paris,
were equally powerful. Ex-Secretary whitney

the New York and Northern in the interest of
New England, and a large amount OF wheat
taken for export helped along the good feeling
late in the day. There was no disposition 20
