SToCIs.-The volume Of business at the
Stock Exchange showed further falling
of to-day. The stock market taken as
whole was in more settled state and no
violent fluctuations occurred in any part
OF the list. The tendency in prices in the
early trading was upward, decline of IL
per cent. IN Distilling and Cattle Feeding
and Chicago Gas having had comparatively
little influence on the general list. SUbse-
quentlv Manhattan rose pa and Canada
Southern Is. In sympathy with these
movements a general advance occurred,
the eastern and western trunk lines shares
improving i TO "a per cent, and Chicago
Gas and Disullers selling a fraction above
last nights final quotations. The strength
Of sterling exchange, however, revived the
talk about gold shipments and on this the
bears made . renewed attack upon the
market during the afternoon. Reading
was first singled out and the price was
knocked down from 53$ 10 81, partly on
reports that the Pennsylvania had acquired
control OF certain lines which would give it
a tirmCr hold on the coal trade and
partly on reports that the company was
selling bonds to secure funds 10 meet in
tereSt on the preference income. After tue
move against Reading, Chicago Gas was
sold down ,, DiSulling and Cattle Feeding
and Missouri Pacific rs, National Land
rs, Rock Island and LaCkawanna IA,
Canada Southern a, and American Sugar
Is. The losses otherwise were less than
per cent. Speculation leftO Steady at
fractional recovery from the lowest figures
of the afternoon. Sales, $4,000 shares.

THE PACIFIC RAILROAD DEBTS.

The government debt of the Pacific rail-
roads now amounts TO sii2, SIP 500 princi-
pal and unpaid interest, and Is near ma
turity, with no provision for its payment
1t must either be extended or the mort
cages will be forecIosed. The government
lien Is q second mortgage, and the prior
lien would stand for about all the property
Is worth. The best the government can
do will be TO extend the debt with strin-
gent provisions for its payment out of the
current earnings.
The Chicago Tribune, commenting upon
the dishonesty practiced upon the govern
ment by the Pacific railroads. says that
large amounts of the government subsidy
were never invested In the construction of
the roads, but "were diverted to personal
uses by the ruling powers of those roads
and served to build up colossal private
fortunes" The Central Pacific employed
government money in building the South
ern Pacific, on which the government has
no lien. and govern ment money went into
branch lines Of the Union Pacific on
which likewise it has no lien. To this in
dictment the Springfield Republican adds:
And as everybody knows further, the bonds

In order to steal the contested seat of
the Fifteenth senatorial district of New
York the Democratic state board of can
vassers treated with contempt the decis-
ion of the court of appeals, which ruled
that county clerks signature is not nee
essary to make an election return valid,
but that the supreme court had right to
prevent the board from canvassing the re-

count of fraud. The state canvassers
ignored this decision of the court OF ap-
peals, and awarded certificate to the man
whom the supreme court had already said
was not elected.
