STocKs-The stock market to-day has
been rather quiet, without any of the ex-
element which has marked the trading of
late. The early London advices showed an
improved feeling there. This caused a de-
mand ut the opening here 10 cover shorts
and first prices were all up from 4 to "a
per cent. The upward movement lacked
vim, however, and while a few stocks
scored further slight gains. the upward
movement soon came to halt. Extreme dull
ness marked the trading for the last hour
of the forenoon, but after that time the
bears became aggressive, taking advantage
of the limited market as usual TO hammer
another line of shorts. The attack this
time was directed squarely at the grangers
and Rock Island in particular. The rumor
that the next dividend would be passed
was freely circulated and undoubtedly had
some influence, and coming at the same
the failure of Barker Bros.
in Philadelphia, helped materially
to deprcss the stocks of the general list
The failure was OF special influence upon
Reading and that stock kept pace with the
grangers in the downward movement as
long as il lasted The bears withdrew
their forces toward delivery hour, but the
market displayed no recuperative power,
although there was evidence of good buy
ing, especially in Missouri Pacific and
Union Pacific. The close, however, was
heavy and dull at close to the lowest prices
of the day. Missouri Pacific is up Ia,
Rock Island is down 81, and Jersey Cen

STEAMERS TO AUSTRALIA.

In pointing out the effects of the tonnage
and postal subsidy bills, which are now be-
fore the House OF Representatives, on the
trade of San Francisco, we have thus far
confined ourselves to considering the pro-
posed line to Valparaiso. But those meas
ures will be of fully equal Importance to our
Australian trade. We have now a monthly
service between San Francisco and Sidney;
the vessels touch at Auckland and Mel
bourne. For this service, the line, which is
owned by Americans, gets the sea-portage
from our Government and an annual sub
sdy of 100000 from the Australian Col
opies. The contract for the latter expires
next November and the Colonies have given
notice to the owners of the line that it will
not be renewed unless this country also
grants subsidy. Australians thoroughly
realize that increased Government support
will, or at least should, insure lower rates
of freight and passage.
At the present time four regular lines of
steamers ply between Europe and Sydney
