"a GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
NEW York, May 5.-The large earnings of
all the railroads recently reported are now hav-
ing their legitimate effect on the stock market,
and they, together with the prospect Of the pas
sage OF the silver bill, are the principle sustain
ing elements of the market, which now almost
entirely ignore the fighting Western roads, and
recently published interviews with several
Western railroad managers have not had an en-
couraging effect upon the stocks of the various
properties which they represent nor any dis
couraging effect upon the rest of the stock list.
The market to-day was unusually active
throughout the entire session, and the
commission houses report outsiders
al .TecnIstion and recent nredictIons
that the signs Of returning strength indicated
that revival was at hand that would BRING back
business enough in the street to make it equal to
that of ten years ago was verified. The market
continued to advance throughout the day, with
bat little slight set-backs, and closed active and
strong at best figures.
The railroad bond market was also more ac-
tive. The market was strong all through the
|. list, but the feature of the dealings were the
strength shown by Kansas and Texas issues, adj
vance in 6's, the receipts running up to AZ per
cent, while other changes were generally for
fractional amounts.
Government bonds-Dull and steady.
State bonds-Dull and featureless.
