FINANCIAL.
New York.

New YORK, Aug. 2.-rhe improve
ment which set in at the stock ex-
change yesterday made further progress
today. The heavy importat ions of gold
and the movement OH the part of the
national banks of this city to take out
new circulation by deposlting govern
ment bonds with the treasury depart
ment at Washington, have relieved the
strain In financial circles, and are main
iy responsible for the sharp recovery in
both the stock and bond markets.
The rise In the former today was
assisted by purchases for the ac-
count of leading operators, who saw
the opportunity OF making profitable
turn at the expense of the shorts. The
fact that the bears experienced difficult
ties In making prompt deliveries, and
that when the demand TO cover became
urgent the supply of stocks was found
to be scarce, also had marked influence.
Inc rise suffered no particular inter-
ruptlOn until after midday, when some
of the smalldr bulls realized profits and
prices yielded 1885. The bears at
once started 20 put out a fresh line of
short contracts, but after brief spell
or weakness the market again met
WIN eHcctiNc support, ana as rule the
best figures of the day were attained,
after delivery hour.
The largest advances were 91I IN Chi
cago Gas, 9 in Lackawanna, 81 in Gen
eral Electric, rs in Burlington Il
Quincy, 63s III Northwest; Lake Shore.
61S.; 535 i'll Western Union, in Rock
Island and Manhattan, and So ii St.
Paul. There was Il difference of any
where from l to 21l per cent between
the sales at intervals. so urgent was the
demand to cover. Shortly before the
close another reaction OF 16Gl2% per
cent occurred. BUT this was succeeded
by another recovery of 150l2 pr cent,
and speculation left OFF strong in tone.
There was an improved demand for
bonds today, and the tone was strong
throughout. American Cotton Oil IS

RATES sTiFFENING.
Eastern Roads Inclined to Main
tain Them.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2.-Present indica-
tons do not afford any grounds for be
lieving that when the general managers
of the Central Traffic association lines
meet again next Wednesday to resume
the discussion of what worlds fair rates
shall be for the balance of the season
any reduction of rates will be agreed to.
The prospects are all the other way.
Rates in Eastern territory are stiffening
every day, and the whole disposition is
towards the advancement and mainte-
nance OF rates, rather than in favor of
further reductions. The railroads eX-
pect travel fol the greater part of Au-
gust to be light, but for September 70
be heavy, and when the heavy travel
sets in they want to be in position TO
derive the largest amount of benefit
from it. since it is nearly all they now
have to rely on for expected revenue.
All the employees on the Iowa divi-
sinnS of the Burlington system have
been notified by the management of the
road that they can have free transporta-
lion to Chicago to see the worlds fair If
they apply for and use the same while
WV hOiuiliO VI liuNCl Is llSlls MY
have been warned, however, that 1t will
not do for them to delay their trip later,
because the general travel IS expected
TO be very heavy in September, and the
company may not be able to afford EN-
ployes free transportation Under such
circumstances.
Careful estimates of the passenger
earnings of the Western roads for the
month of July place the decrease for
the month as compared with June
earnings at $50O,O This decrease is
divided up pretty evenly among all the
roads. J he two reasons are assigned a:
One is large falling off in the volume
of travel. Not nearly so many people
were brought from any section of
Western territory during July as dur
ing June. The other reason given is a
material reduction OF rates. This re-
ductiOn the roads claim was just so
much sacrifice of revenue and of
revenue they could i'll afford. They
look for even worse results during
August. Since the one-fare rate Plus
81 went into effect travel has not in
creased enough 10 make up for the diff
