Good Trading in Bords-Status OF Un-
listed Stocks-Business and Fluctuations.
The local stock market was somewhat er-
ratio during the week. At one time the
bears succeeded in making quite an impress
sion, but they were unable to hold things
down. A general improvement set in the
latter part Of the week, and most of the
slumpy spots disappeared Although as
compared with q month ago price changes
show losses to be in the majority, closing
figures were with few exceptions from
points to fractions better than the lowest.
Central, Citizens and Pittsburg fractions
were the market features. The regular buy
ers of these stocks secured about all they
wanted, and there were no new ones to take
their places. The principal changes as COM
pared with a week ago are: Bridgewater
Gas 5 points higher, Philadelphia Gas q.

CHICAGO-The fight between Partridge
and the ordination opposed to him was
again the feature of the wheat market to-
day. Fluctuations were rapid and violent,
and the feeling unsettled. At the opening
prices varied 1Isc within the first few seconds
in different parts of the crowd, sales being
made at 1a@l13c over the closing figures of
yesterday. Bull news wis plentiful. and but
for Pardridge bold tactics would have had
marked effect. Cables were decidedly firm;
all domestic markets were on the rampage
Cold weather was reported In the winter
opening was at S5l<c. The market went of
to SAC, then up to s5c, held for considerable
time at S434c, then near noon shot up TO S534c,
but the demand fell OF and the price went
TO S4ssc, and at II O'Clock was about S4s4c,
against S45sc at the close yesterday.
After the noon hour the wheat market
began to weaken. the shorts seemed to be
well covered. and the moment the bnying
came to a halt the bears took fresh courage
and began to sell. May went off quickly to
$3.50, reacted some, and att o'clock was S3Hc.
Then some operators became very bold.
This was followed by such selling as caused
many to believe that some houses had inside
information from Washington. General
selling put the May price OFF to s2Ic bid at
the close, or I15c under the close last night
on the regular session, which was &c under
the later curb prices.
Oats active, shooting up to 301sc for May
on a rush of shorts to cover, but the close,
29lzc, was 1sc under last nights closing The
provision trade was dull and the market
heavy. Outside interests. which Yesterday
were giving some signs of reawakening, were
again conspiciously absent. -
Pork made its best price at the opening
and had only recovered from 21a15c from its
lowest pointat the close. Lard and ribs were
equally as weak as pork. Pork, since YES
terday, is 714Gl0c lower: ribs are off &c and
lard about the same as ribs

Hurrah for the Estorge Par
ish Committee r.!

The consensus of opinion is that the
labor unions of the City of New Orleans
is to- day in state of insurrection
against law and order, and the respon-
sibility for the present condition of af-
fairs rests upon the strikers who repre-
sent only 20 per cent of the population.
Public indignation is gradually being
aroused to dangerous pitch, because
of the stoppage of business, and already
conservative citizens are beginning to
suggest that Gov. Foster should take
hold of the situation with firm hand,
and if he does he will find the whole
people at his back ready and willing to
aid him in enforcing the law and the
right of citizen to conduct his bust
ness in his own way. As prominent
gentleman said this morning New Or
leans is to day in the hands of mob
who have no regard for law or order
and were it not for the election there
would be scenes of violence on our
streets. IF Gov. Foster acts at all he
should act promptly and nip the trou-
BILE in the bud. There are thousands
of native born Louisianians in this city
and State who will gladly rally at his
call and rescue New Orleans-the Me-
tropoIis of the South from condition
little short of absolute anarchy."-N.
