NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.


NEW YORK. April 4.--Ths stock market was
active and strong in the forenoon, and there was
O large borrowing demand for stocks. Prices
rose through practically the whole list New
England was the one weak spot and that only
during the early trading. The pressure upon u
was continued, but large business was done IN
1t with loss OF only u per cent, the stock touch
ing 40. At this point. however, the shorts took
fright aud covered with such promptitude that
the loss was not DULY made up, but fractional
gain was recorded In addition. Among the coal
ers Delaware and Hudson showed the widest
fluctuations, the extreme advance from Satur-
days price being cyer ~ per cent. to l44A,
while Reading, at SO, was up ia after q very
large amount OF II had changed hands.
MATERIAL GAINS THE RULE.
The most OF the rest of the market was dwarf
ed entirely By the fluctuations In the STOCKS
mentioned, but the whole LIST shared IN the up
ward movement, and despite tho EFFORTS of the
bears 10 again get prices down In the late
trading, material gains were the rule at the
close throu ghout the list. As New England was
the centre OF attack dating the forenoon. Read
ing, after its advance, was driven down again
later In the day, but the general list refused 10
respond to this decline, IS II was well understood
that the attack was veil TO cover movements
in other directions. Tho opening advances were
from Il to " per cent. and while the early
pressure caused some slight Concessions In the
irst few minutes, the strength In the coelers
soon changed the general drift Oh prices end the
entire marset was lifted to higher level than
that OF tho opening The improvement was well
maintained throughout, though some conccs-
sions were seen from the best prices.
THE CLOSE FAMILY ACTIVE AND FIRM

yesterday for stealing money from small white
boy and resisting the officers. The negroes
fought desperately and rocked the officers one
OF the outlaws, Brown, was 1nally shot IN the
arm before they could be arrested. Mayor Ooocn
this morning sent them on for trial.
At the cemetery yesterday the horrible dis
covery was made that several graves had been
torn 10 pieces and the slabs scattered ABOUT.
One or two headstones had been broken, and the
grave decorators left every evidence behind
that they were possessed OF many demons. The
authorities are making efforts to capture thom.
GOOD SUGGESTION.
There are no further Developments In the mys-
FERROUS murder OF Mr.. Atlas Taylor In North
ampton. Richmond detective should De en-
ployed by the Northampton authorities at once.
The perpetrators of such an atrocious crime
should surely be brought TO swift justice.
