NEW YoRK, May 21.-Atchison stock opened
strong this morning; but selling orders were
abundant and prices fell off. st, Louis and San
Francisco securities were stronger, but there
was scarcely anything doing In them. Rich
mond Terminal was Q feature Of the day, total
sales aggregating over 10000 shares. Tran
factions were at advanced prices. Directors at
the meeting this afternoon confirmed the action
OF the president in securing nrst ana second
preferred stock OF the East Tennessee, Virginia
and Georgia. and Virginia Midland companies,
and confirmed the existing contracts for ex-
change, which will require the issue OF - s00
shares of common stock. Every holder Of 100
shares of common stock OF record OF June
next, is on payment OF $lzVO TO receive slVO0
bond and twenty shares OF STOCK.
Sugar was next in point OF activity, and was
strong at first, The decision of Judge Ingra-
ham is considered very favorable to the trust.
It practically leaves the trust Tree OF All htlga-
ton except action against the North river
sugar refining company. Inc trust cannot, It's
friends claim, change its form of organization
The news relative to the Western rate situa-
ton was of an encouraging character. The
pressure of the trunk lines seem 70 have forced
what and it is now said that he has agreed not
to insist on his ten cent diferential on st. Paul
business. This is taken to mean that rates on
Northwestern business will be restored. This is
very important, as these rates were the chief
stumbling block in the way OF harmony among
the ROADS. But tniS news ulu noI nave
the effect of strengthening even Granger
stocks, which are particularly affected.
The general market was undeniably soft. The.
market keeps pace with the price of silver. this
in turn keeps pace with the state of public feel
ing regarding the possibilities of the silver COIN
age bill.
In the last half hour sharp attack on the
market sent prices down with a rush and the
close was very weak indeed. Sugar and Atchi-
son led in the downward movement. The de-
cline was due to the bear attack and to unearth-
ing OF stop orders.
There was no unfavorable news.
Money loaned up to per cent, but was easy
at the close.

AN IMPORTANT DEAL.

A Transaction Looking to the Perfection of
Through Line Around the World.
Something has transpired which leads us to
believe that Mr.. Henry Willard will very shortly
carry through the plan which will, as a conse-
qusnce, give the Northern Pacific railroad
company the girdle around the world,
which he has SO long projected. The an
nouncement, made on Saturday, that q
party Of capitalists had secured control of
upwards Of 80, 600 shares of the Pacific mail
nifcant, inasmuch as it is their intention to put
into the presidency Of the Pacific mail steam
ship company, Capt. ]. NJ. LachIan, who, with
H. K. Thurber, founded the United States Bra
I'll line of steamers. This means that, with q
change of the executive of the Pacific mail
steamship company, the programme, which will
give the Willard people the use OF that company
service to Tacoma, will be carried
through. The resignation OF Mr.. George
j. Gould as president will prob
ably be handed in before the annual meeting Of
the Pacific mail steamship company's stock
holders. That a change is Imminent and is sure
to be made, is apparent from the fact that &c. 900
shares of stock have been transferred to the
names OF the rightful owners, so that no "snap
game' can be played on the closing Of the
books. Theoretically, the transfers close to-
day at noon; practically, they closed on Friday,
although the fact was known to comparatively
few people, and those the most prominent In
siders.- Wall Street News.
Since the above appeared in the Wall Street
News, the deal has been contaminated, and
Willard will carry out his scheme.

:. PARIS, TEX, May q A most distressing &C.
cident occurred here at 9 O'Clock this morning
by which one person was killed outright and an
other seriously injured. Rev. Price Rodgers was
driving into the city from the country with his
sister, Miss Mamie. in a sulkey. As they were
crossing the tracks at the Union depot the horse
became frightened and made q plunge forward,
which threw the young lady backwards, but her
foot caught. The horse started al q furious rate
across the track and up Bonham street, beating
the unfortunate girls head against
the iron rails, the pavement
and curbing, and the young man
was struck by piece OF plank and knocked into
the street. After running about 800 yards the
vehicle overturned and the hfeless body of the
girl fell limp into the streets, beaten and
crushed beyond recognition. Hundreds of peo-
pie were unwilling spectators OF the frightful
scene, but were powerless to save the girl.
Blood, brains and pieces of the girls skull were
scattered along the street for 200 yards. Her
brother, besides being badly hurt, is beside him
self with grief, as he persuaded her to come to
the city with him against her wishes.
