GOVERNMENTS, STOCKS AND BONDS.
New YORK, April 24.-The stock market
to-day has been fevcrish and irregular in
its movements throughout the day and the
final outcome of the days business is gem
orally small changes in either direction.
The bullish feeling is almost entirely based
upon the excellent outlook for the cereal
crops for the coming season, and adviceS
Of adverse nature receive little attention
for 4 short time, and while they usually
give the bears and sold-out bulls Il chance
TO get back few stocks at lower prices,
the real buying is not permanently
checked.
The arrival of Mr. Gould was expected to
give the market q lift, but outside of I'M
usual strength shown at times in the
Wabash preferred. there was nothing TO
show that either ne or his friends were es- |
pecially active in the market
Railroad bonds-Moderately active
Government bonds and state bonds
Steady. dull.
