where flames can do such a great amount
Of damage In so short a time.
The board. at its meeting Monday night
considered number OF plans for the
reorganization.
TO STRENGTHEN THE DEPART
MENT.

centrated In the inner engine-houses

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.

NEW YORK, June 5.--Yesterday ac-
tvity in the railway list and the promi-
nent part taken by London IL bringing
about this result. led commissioning
TO expect an increased business in this
class Of stocks especially az Congress
seems disposed to deal more leniently with
railroads, at least. so far as the making
of rates Is concerned. The opening OF
the market quickly put an end to the
idea that the deal in the Industrials was
over and that their place in current
speculation had been usurped by the So
called standard stocks. Sugar. which
closed at 1872, started eff lag per cent
higher, 2O00 shares selling at lO5 This
was the keynote Of the day, the Indus
trials jumping TO the front, while the rail-
road stocks gave way to occupy a sub
ordinate position throughout. London
turned seller Of the stocks II bought yes
terday. This proved disappointment to
operators who had bought on the alleged
change of front on the part OF the for
eigners. and the sales by this contingent
assisted I'm Keeping prices down, notwth-
standing the remarkable strength OF Su-
gar.
After the opening Sugar sold UP to l05i9,
reCeded TO lUis. rose 10 lOo9s. fell 10 lUj94,
advanced to 1865, and closed at 1864 "A
net gain Of 30, per cent. for the day.
Chicago Gas, which was next, figured for
q, 7O0 shares. The day ended without
bringing forth any new reason for the ad-
vance in Sugar. II has been contended
ever since the stock has sold in the neigh
borhood OF ~ that the sugar refining in
terest would be accorded ampl" protec,
ton by the Senate. To-day, belated
short interest finally came 10 this conciu-
sion, and the covering for their account
was the board-roOm reason assigned for
the great strength Of the certificates.
Chicago Gas showed fresh signs Of
liquidation, and sold down 10 ~, closing
at 7i5s Lead. Cordage Whisky, and
