TABLES TURNED.
The Difference Twenty-Five Years of
Time NAV Make,


WASHINGTON, December 29th.-General
Sherman was obliged to retreat to-day be-
fore the hot fire of a Confederate battery
during the debate concerning the admis-
sion of the Idaho Senators. The sturdy
old General entered the Senate chamber
while Senator Cockrell of Missouri was en-
gagged in argument with Senators Spooner
and Sanders, and he was straightway sur.
rounded by numerous Senators. Very
naturally there was conversation, and
then Mr.. Cockrell loudly expressed his
willingness TO yield the floor to the group
that clustered around the old warrior. The
Missourian's remarks caused the converse.
tionalists to make hasty retreat to the
Republican cloak
Time makes all things even. Twenty
five years ago it was Mr.. Cockrell who was
unavoidably doing the retreating, aud Gen.
eral Sherman was the cause. To-day the
rebel Brigadier was in the saddle. as it
were, and the Union forces moved back
ward.

disposition to buy early In the day, and some of
the larger traders were numbered on that side.

steady for while, and then declined l1z9l5sc,

and closed about sS@34c lower than Saturday.
The strong opening was due mainly to the
frmer tone of European cables. A special
dispatch from Manitoba says that the wheat
yield of that country which promised SO
splendidly is turning out disappointing in
quality. The above influences aided in sus-
tanning the market during the early part of the
session. But with heavy arrivals in the Nor L.
west the market began to weaken as reported.
Corn-Fair trading within 5s93zc range,
with the feeling frmer early but easier as the
session advanced. The fluctuations in wheat
and the operations of alarge local trader had
good deal to do with the course of the mar
ket. First trades were at 4@ssc advance the

decline was recorded, and then rally which
did not hold, the market closing with H@1zc
loss.

nothing of consequence in the other futures
An unsettled feeling prevailed, prices being
governed entirely by local influences. Prices
fuctuated freely within &c range, and closing

Local Trade Almost as Good as Before the

Exposition Closed.
The steady increase in the volume of trade
comparing one week with another. and also
with the same time last year, shows that all OF
the great industries of the city are in active
operation. The outlook also continues to im.
prove. Facts in support of this claim come
from all parts Of the country.
1t was feared by some that the closing of the
Exposition would materially lesson the volume
of trade, but the difference is so small as to be
scarcely noticeable in the general result as

The Natural Gas Shares Go Off for Lack of

Sales of stock at the first call yesterday were
100 shares of Philadelphia Gas at q, 12U at 2615S
so at 263s and so New York and Cleveland Gas
Coal at S31a. After call 20 shares of Philadel-
phia Gas brought 263s. At second call 80 shares
of Philadelphia Gas went at 2615, and at third
100 at the same figure.
The feature of the day was the drop in Phil
adelphla Gas, followed in figures and feeling
by others of the same class of securities. 1t
was due to belief that the action of the Phila-
delphia people in cutting loose from the manu-
facturers is evidence of falling off in supply;
whereas, the fact is, it is nothing more than
business move to get the most money possible
for their product. 1t closed a good fraction
